Svenskt bokmuseum : "Till intet gagn"

Svenskt bokindustrimuseum initierades av Waldemar Zachrisson vid sekelskiftet 1900 och var kopplat till Svenska Boktryckareföreningen. Artikeln är den andra i en serie som behandlar museets historia.

A thermodynamically consistent modelling framework for strongly time-dependent bainitic phase transitions

In this work, a thermodynamically consistent constitutive framework is introduced that is capable of reproducing the significant time-dependent behaviour of austenite-to-bainite phase transformations. In particular, the aim is to incorporate the effect of these diffusion-controlled processes by plasticity-like evolution equations instead of incorporating related global diffusion equations. To this

Male partners’ participation in birth preparedness and complication readiness in low- and middle-income countries : a systematic review and meta-analysis

Background: Maternal and neonatal health outcomes remain a challenge in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) despite priority given to involving male partners in birth preparedness and complication readiness (BPCR). Men in LMICs often determine women’s access to and affordability of health services. This systematic review and meta-analysis determined the pooled magnitude of male partner’s part

Azimuthal dependence of two-particle transverse momentum current correlations

Two-particle transverse momentum correlation functions are a powerful technique for understanding the dynamics of relativistic heavy-ion collisions. Among these, the transverse momentum correlator G2(Δη, Δφ) is of particular interest for its potential sensitivity to the shear viscosity per unit of entropy density η/ s of the quark-gluon plasma formed in heavy-ion collisions. We use the UrQMD, AMPT

The Signal of Solar Storms Embedded in Cosmogenic Radionuclides : Detectability and Uncertainties

The threat that solar storms pose to our ever-modernizing society has gathered significant interest in the recent past. This is partly due to the discoveries of large peaks in the content of cosmogenic radionuclides such as radiocarbon (14C) in tree rings and beryllium-10 (10Be) and chlorine-36 (36Cl) in ice cores that were linked to extreme solar storms dated to the past millennia. To better asse

Fitness cost from fluctuating ultraviolet radiation in Daphnia magna

Solar ultraviolet radiation (UVR) is an important environmental threat for organisms in aquatic systems, but its temporally variable nature makes the understanding of its effects ambiguous. The aim of our study was to assess potential fitness costs associated with fluctuating UVR in the aquatic zooplankter Daphnia magna. We investigated individual survival, reproduction and behaviour when exposed

A weak compatibility condition for Newest Vertex Bisection in any dimension

We defne a weak compatibility condition for the Newest Vertex Bisection algorithm on simplex grids of any dimension and show that, using this condition, the iterative refnement algorithm terminates successfully. Additionally we provide an O(n) algorithm that renumbers any simplex grid to fulfll this condition. Furthermore we conduct experiments to estimate the distance to the standard compatibilit

Development of acoustically isolated extracellular plasma vesicles for biomarker discovery in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation

Background: Infection and graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) are the major causes for mortality and morbidity of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). Plasma-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) contain disease-related proteins, DNAs and RNAs, and have recently been suggested as potential biomarker candidates for transplantation complications. However, EV isolation from sma

Synthesis of Bacteria Imprinted Polymers by Pickering Emulsion Polymerization

Molecularly imprinted polymers have been studied for a long time and have found useful applications in many fields. In most cases, small organic molecules are used as templates to synthesize imprinted polymers. In contrast to low molecular weight targets, large biological molecules and cells are more challenging to use as templates to synthesize cell-recognizing materials. This chapter presents an

Early white matter pathology in the fornix of the limbic system in Huntington disease

Huntington disease (HD) is a fatal neurodegenerative disorder caused by an expanded CAG repeat in the huntingtin (HTT) gene. The typical motor symptoms have been associated with basal ganglia pathology. However, psychiatric and cognitive symptoms often precede the motor component and may be due to changes in the limbic system. Recent work has indicated pathology in the hypothalamus in HD but other

Rapid scale-up of antiretroviral treatment in Ethiopia: : successes and system-wide effects

There has been substantial expansion of access to ART and HIV counseling and testing in Ethiopia, whilst maintaining the performance of other health programs such as tuberculosis and maternal and child health services. Task shifting to the health officers, nurses, and health extension workers is thought to be responsible for these successes. However, HIV prevention interventions and management of

Review Topography of Sound Art

Austrian artist and director of ZKM Center for Art and Media in Karlsruhe, Germany, Peter Weibel (Odessa, 1944), curates a book/catalogue of the mythical exhibition Sound Art, Sound as Medium of Art, that took place between March 2012 and February 2013 in Karlsruhe, with nearly one thousand images of sound art pieces. Along with a very detailed historical trace of sound as a form of art, the book
