En kort presentation av boken och dess författare Filosofer och kognitionsforskare, samhällsvetare och en professor i konstruktionsteknik belyser i den här boken riskproblem i olika mänskliga sammanhang. Risk och det levande mänskliga inleds med att Åsa Boholm tar oss med till Hallandsåsen. Där framförs motstridiga riskbedömningar och riskhanteringsstrategier, av Banverket och dess experter å ena

Leachate constitutes the main potential long-term environmental risk of landfill emissions. The EU landfill directive 1999/3 I/EC requires minimum monitoring during the active landfill life and the after-care phase. Due to time and resource limitations, monitoring of leachate quality is a compromise between information density and applicability. Samples from passively collected leachate are suspec

Popular Abstract in Swedish 6 Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning 6.1 Proteiner produceras av våra gener Nyligen bestämdes sekvensen för det mänskliga genomet bestående av 30 000 gener. Varje gen kodar för minst ett protein. All information finns i generna men för att förstå vad generna gör behöver vi studera proteinerna de kodar för. I denna avhandling presenteras några proteinstrukturer. Man kaThe Mg2+ and Mn2+ structures of calbindin D9k have been determined and they reveal a conformational change compared to the structures of apo and (Ca2+)2-calbindin D9k. These findings are unique, since normally calcium and not magnesium is known to induce conformational changes of EF-hand proteins. It has also been shown that calbindin D9k binds one Mg2+ (Kd=1mM) in the regular C-terminal EF-hand c

If engineering designers consciously design product and package in an integrated manner, there is a great potential for industrial global enterprises to develop and produce mechanical products, such as exhaust extraction systems, ear washer machines and fuel handling systems while simultaneously obtaining error-free deliveries, saving costs and avoiding quality problems. Thus, the authors of this

This paper investigates both positional dependence in systems with friction and the influence an increase in temperature has on the friction behavior. The positional dependence is modeled with a Radial Basis Function network and the temperature dependence is modeled as a first order system with the power loss due to friction as input, eliminating the need for temperature sensing. The proposed meth

This work concerns an experimental study of pressure drop and heat transfer for turbulent flow inside a U-duct with relevance for tip cooling of gas turbine blades. The U-duct models the internal blade cooling flow passages. Both friction factors and convective heat transfer coefficients were measured along the bend (turn) part of the U-duct for three different rib configuration cases, namely (a)
