Static and Dynamic Modelling of the Drying Section of a Paper Machine

Popular Abstract in Swedish Papperstillverkning inkluderar flera processteg såsom flisning av träråvaran, massakokning och avvattning med vakuumlådor, pressning och torkning. Flera modeller av de mest viktiga processerna i torkpartiet presenteras i denna avhandling. Modellerna beskriver både statiska och dynamiska förlopp. Nya reglerstrategier som kan användas för både reglering vid stationär drifThe paper making process involves chopping of wood, cooking and forming, followed by dewatering in a vacuum section, press section and drying section. Several models for the most important parts of the paper machine drying section are presented in this thesis to describe phenomena at steady state and during state transitions. New control strategies applicable/useful for both steady-state control a

Small x phenomenology: summary and status

The aim of this paper is to summarize the general status of our understanding of small-x physics. It is based on presentations and discussions at an informal meeting OIL this topic held in Lund, Sweden, in March 2001. This document also marks the founding of an informal collaboration between experimentalists and theoreticians with a special interest in small-x physics. This paper is dedicated to t

Outcomes following a programme for lifestyle changes with people with hypertension

AIM: The purpose of the study was to explore the effects of using a structured nursing intervention programme in hypertension care. BACKGROUND: Counselling on lifestyle changes to address hypertension helps patients reduce risk factors such as smoking, high alcohol consumption, overweight, dyslipidemia, negative stress and physical inactivity. DESIGN: The study was performed as a pre-test-post-tes

Expression and regulation of CCL25 and its role in T cell localization to and function within the small intestine

Earlier studies have demonstrated an important role for the chemokine CCL25, and its receptor CCR9, in the generation of the small intestinal lymphocyte compartment. The work in this thesis was aimed at determining how CCL25 is regulated within the small intestinal mucosa, and what potential role it plays in T cell localization to and function within this site. We have identified epithelial cells

Prevalence of thyroid hormone abnormalities in elderly patients with symptoms of organic brain disease.

Analysis of the serum concentrations of free thyroid hormones (fT3, fT4) and thyrotropin (TSH) in 173 psychogeriatric patients (94 females and 79 males, mean age 79 +/- 8 years) disclosed that the hormone levels were related to sex, psychiatric diagnosis, medication and the presence of nonthyroid illness (NTI). Subnormal concentrations of thyroid hormones and/or TSH were found in 25% of the patien

Psykisk och somatisk belastning hos tvångsvårdade kvinnor – En kohortstudie av LVM- och LVU-vårdade kvinnor vid Lunden

Data avseende bakgrund, sjukdomsbild; både fysisk och psykisk med data hämtades ur ADAD och DOK och genom intervjuer, social- och sjukvårdsjournaler i ett konsekutivt material om 216 klienter som vårdats på Lunden mellan januari 1997 till juni 2000. Totalt 115 flickor/kvinnor (80 LVM- och 52 LVU-flickor) testades med två test BCT och CMPS, psykiska symtom (SCL-90) och personlighetsstörning enligt

Seger åt Tibet! : den tibetanska diasporan och den religiösa nationen

Popular Abstract in Swedish Tibet och den tibetanska buddhismen har i väst ofta kommit att användas som synonymer. Tidigt kom landets otillgänglighet och stängda dörrar mot omvärlden att utöva en stark lockelse för resande och religiösa sökare. De kom i många fall att betrakta landet och dess folk som bevarare av en kunskap och vishet som gått den övriga världen förlorad. Föreställningen om den rThis dissertation in anthropology of religion focuses on images of Tibet, among Westerners as well as among Tibetans. Based on approximately one year of fieldwork in the former British Hill station, it also deals with the politics of the Central Tibetan Administration (CTA) and some of its political and social implications for the exiled Tibetan youth living in Dharamsala, India. The Western perc

Studenter lär varandra, erfarenheter från en grundkurs i matematisk statistik

Går det att undvika passiva studenter som fokuserar på tentaläsning? Räcker det att låta studenterna arbeta med problemlösning, laborationer och projektarbeten, eller måste kanske undervisningen omorganiseras? Kan man få studenterna att själva ta ansvar för sin inlärning, att läsa mer i boken och att arbeta mer aktivt med materialet? På en av våra grundkurser i matematisk statistik i Lund har vi m

Children looked after and their right to participation in accordance with the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, article 12

Research has been done on children’s participation in review meetings, a method for reviewing foster and residential care. The method is tested within the national project Children’s Needs in Focus (BBIC) inspired by the British Integrated Children’s System and operated by the National Board of Health and Welfare (Socialstyrelsen) in Sweden. The objective of the evaluation, conducted on behalf of

The Interplay of Social Science and Personal Belief in Gordon W. Allport's Psychology of Religion

In this study an analysis of G.W. Allport's psychology of religion was carried out from the perspective of personal equation with the aim of establishing an interchange between a scholarly and personal sphere in Allport's views of psychology of religion. A content analysis of Allport's collected scholarly writings on psychology of religion, and largely unpublished personal sources previously not u

CHICSi - a compact ultra-high vacuum compatible detector system for nuclear reaction experiments at storage rings. III. readout system

(CHICSi) Celsius Heavy Ion Collaboration Si detector system is a high granularity, modular detector telescope array for operation around the cluster-jet target/circulating beam intersection of the CELSIUS storage ring at the The. Svedberg Laboratory in Uppsala, Sweden. It is able to provide identity and momentum vector of up to 100 charged particles and fragments from proton-nucleus and nucleus-nu

Elevated triiodothyronine in psychopathy - possible physiological mechanisms

We assessed a total range of peripheral thyroid hormone fractions, binding globulins, and thyroid-active antibodies in 37 medication-free, violent or sexual offenders, aged 17-45 years, to describe possible mechanisms involved in the thyroid metabolism of aggressive men. The ratio between T3 and T4 correlated with ratings of psychopathy, indicating increased peripheral deiodination as a biological

Control of emission by intermolecular fluorescence resonance energy transfer and intermolecular charge transfer

Control of emission by intermolecular fluorescence resonant energy transfer (IFRET) and intermolecular charge transfer (ICT) is investigated with the quantum-chemistry method using two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) real space analysis methods. The work is based on the experiment of tunable emission from doped 1,3,5-triphenyl-2-pyrazoline (TPP) organic nanoparticles (Peng, A. D.; et a

Old Universities in New Environments: New Technology and Internationalisation Processes in Higher Education

In this book the authors discuss globalisation, the use of new technology and its effects on higher education. Four old universities in Europe (Bologna, Cambridge, Leuven and Lund) are used as illustrations of different approaches to managing a changing environment. The authors focus on questions like: Differences in organisational structure and strategic choices, how do they affect internationali

Reconstruction of bi-isotropic material parameters using transient electromagnetic fields

A non-iterative time-domain method for solving the inverse scattering problem for the temporally dispersive, linear, homogeneous, and bi-isotropic slab at normal incidence is presented. The inverse scattering problem is to determine (finite time traces of) the susceptibility kernels of the medium given (finite time traces of) the reflection and transmission kernels, which are obtained by deconvolu
