Baltic Finnic and Scandinavian Social Interaction in the Fur-hunting North, c AD 700-1200

In current viking-age studies, slaves are brought forward as the main commodity creating the flow of dirhams from Islamic regions to Eurasia and Scandinavia.

Radio Ghost

This is a work for solo violin improvisation, four radios, four radio transmitters, and a four track fixed-media sound collage made from field recordings and eurorack synthesizers. This performance was at the one-night festival Sonotopia, put on by those of us who took the Sound Art as Critical Practice course at Stockholm University for the Arts in January of 2019. The film was made by Girilal Ba

Traversing The Concrete Marvel : Walking The Un-Sung City

Soundwalking has its roots as a meditative practice, engaged with ecological concerns. Its origin in R. Murray Schafer's work imbibes it with longing for environments free of industrial sound, and Pauline Oliveros' sound-walking practice seeks the subtle emerging from the silence. Although these progenitors of what we call soundwalking offer us a wonderful palette of listening and walking practice

Är exempelvis alla religioner likvärdiga vägar till Gud, och är det okej att delta i andra religioners ceremonier

Numerical Modelling of Combined Forming and Punching of Sheet Metal for Heat Exchanger Applications

In this work a strategy for numerical simulation of punching during concurrent pressing of stainless steel sheet metal has been investigated accounting for the stress triaxiality and Lode angle parameter. Modelling of the damage evolution of a sheet metal is a useful tool within the field of engineering and materials science, and can provide useful information regarding material capabilities in a

Gait parameters when walking with or without rollator on different surface characteristics : a pilot study among healthy individuals

Objectives: Gait parameters can measure risks of falling and mortality and identify early stages of frailty. The use of walking aid changes gait parameters. The aim of this study was to describe differences in gait parameters among healthy adults when walking on different surfaces and under different conditions, with and without a rollator.

Through a two-stage analysis, this chapter examines the role self-conception of the EU as it appears from the EU Global Strategy, released in 2016 as the overarching guide for forei

Dietary Intake of 91 Individual Polyphenols and 5-Year Body Weight Change in the EPIC-PANACEA Cohort

Polyphenols are bioactive compounds from plants with antioxidant properties that may have a protective role against body weight gain, with adipose tissue and systemic oxidative stress as potential targets. We aimed to investigate the dietary intake of individual polyphenols and their association with 5-year body weight change in a sub-cohort of the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer an
