This work is a continuation of a long-term spent fuel leaching and radionuclides immobilization (by iron canister) experiment under simulated near-field conditions, in deoxygenated 2 mM NaHCO3 solution with 1 Gy/h γ irradiation. The corrosion of iron canister material was investigated by electrochemical and microanalytical methods. Significant amounts of radionuclides (U, Np, Tc, Sr) were found to

I kursen ETS170 kravhantering erbjuds studenterna möjligheten att genomföra praktikprojekt i samarbete med näringslivet. Praktikprojekten utgör 2 av 5 poäng och genomförs i grupper av 3-5 studenter. I dessa skarpa projekt tillämpar studenterna teorin i kursen på verkliga industriella problem och får genom stort eget ansvar prova sina förmågor att gå från teori till praktisk handling i en verklig i

The recrystallization behavior of five starch materials, native waxy maize starch, and starches modified by acid hydrolysis and mechanical treatments, were investigated by DSC (differential scanning calorimetry) and electron microscopy (SEM). The starches were known to vary significantly in molecular weights but not in the degree of branching. Microspheres manufactured from one of these starches w

A new approach to optimize full custom, fixed coefficient bit-serial filters aimed at high sample rate and low power consumption is presented. The idea is to trade the filter order with the coefficient length. To show the results two filters were designed and implemented, one as a minimum order filter and the other as a minimum coefficient filter. Measurements shows that a ten fold increase in sam

Popular Abstract in Swedish Lågflödesanestesi (reducerat färskgasflöde till 1,0 l/min) har fördelar genom att minska gaskostnader, reducera gasutsläpp till atmosfären samt öka befuktningen i andningsvägarna. Anestesiologin har under 1990-talet tillförts två nya inhalationsmedel, desfluran och sevofluran. Dessa båda nya inhalationsmedel skiljer sig från de tidigare främst genom sin lägre löslighet Volatile agents are economically and ecologically acceptable only when administered via low-flow systems. However, sevoflurane degrades during low-flow anaesthesia to compound A, and a high carbon dioxide absorber temperature increases this degradation. This thesis suggests that there is a correlation between apparatus dead-space volume and absorber temperature during low- and minimal-flow sevoflu

En undervisningsform som blir allt vanligare vid högskolor och universitet är seminariet. Där deltar de studerande aktivt genom att skriva uppsatser, rapporter eller pm och sedan presentera och diskutera dessa. Detta kursmoment skiljer sig på många sätt från de kursmoment där tyngdpunkten ligger på inläsning med kunskaps¬kontroll i form av skriftliga tentamina där studenterna besvarar ställda fråg

Popular Abstract in Swedish Den nya mångreligiösa och mångkulturella situationen i det svenska samhället till följd av invandring och ökad globalisering har ställt de svenska protestantiska trossamfunden inför nya uppgifter och utmaningar. Mötet med människor av annan tro och den ökande religiösa pluralismen har tvingat sammfunden till ny reflektion kring sin egen identitet och självförståelse vadAs a consequence of immigration and increasing globalisation, the new multifaith and multicultural situation in Swedish society has created new challenges and pastoral ministries for the Christian Protestant churches and denominations in Sweden. Encounters with people of other faiths and increasing religious pluralism has created a new need for reflection about the churches identity, self-understa

One reason for cultvating Vibrio cholera is for production of CTB, which is a component in a cholera vaccine. Techniques of high cell density fermentation developed for recombinant E. coli are investigated.In the literature there is evidence of acetate formation when cultivating V. cholerae, and it is probable that the acetate has the same negative consequences for V. cholerae as for E. coli. Form

We investigate argumentation where an expression is substituted with a less precise expression. We propose that the effect that this deprecization has on the audience be called deprecization effect. When the audience agrees more with the less precise version of the argument, there is a positive deprecization effect. We conducted an experiment where the participants were presented with a court room
