SP har etablerat en databas med 180 rasade eller skadade tak. Det framgår, att det var övervägande stål- och träkonstruktioner, som hade rasat. Endast en skadad betongkonstruktion rapporterades. Byggnadernas ålder spänner över cirka 100 år, men 60 % är uppförda från 1980 och framåt. Taken är förhållandevis flacka. Ca 30 % är lantbruksbyggnader. De dominerande rasorsakerna är dimensioneringsfel och

To evaluate the long term effect on lower extremity function and working capacity after stenting of iliocaval vein segments for acute deep venous thrombosis (DVT) or chronic venous occlusive disease. During a 14 year period from November 1994 to October 2008, 114 patients with median age 36 (interquartile range [IQR], 27-48) years, 72 (63%) women, 72 (63%) with hypercoagulable disorders, with acut

Real-time garbage collection is essential if object-oriented languages (in particular, Java) are to become predictable enough for real-time embedded systems. Although techniques for hard real-time garbage collection exist, they are based on estimations of the maximum amount of referenced (live) memory. Such estimations may be difficult to derive manually for complex programs.We present techniques

This paper revisits the fair and optimal allocation mechanism (Sun and Yang, Economics Letters 81:73-79, 2003) and demonstrates that it is coalitionally strategy-proof. The proof is valid for general preferences, it is simple and it is short.

Isothermal calorimetry and diffuse reflectance infrared DR–FTIR spectroscopy are combined to correlate evolutions of spectroscopic signatures with rates of chemical reactions as reflected in the rate of heat emitted during the first 38 h of cement hydration. Portland limestone cement mortar is employed and the analysis is repeated for two different mixing procedures. Intensive blender mixing with

Popular Abstract in Swedish Det är angeläget att motverka ohälsa. En del av detta kan uppnås genom att minska risker. Syftet med denna avhandling är att ge metoder för karaktärisering av exponering för inhalerbara substanser som kan ge negativa hälsoeffekter. Gaser och luftburna partiklar kan orsaka negativa hälsoeffekter. Andningsorganen är särskilt känsliga och lungorna är en viktig upptagsväg fIt is important to decrease the burden of disease. This is in part achieved by decreasing risks. The aim of this thesis is to provide a methodology for the characterization of aerosol exposure, which may lead to negative health effects. Gases and airborne particles may cause negative health effects and the respiratory system is exceptional sensitive. Isocyanate is one group of substances that are
