Global Energy Assessment: Towards a Sustainable Future

The Global Energy Assessment (GEA) brings together over 300 international researchers to provide an independent, scientifically based, integrated and policy-relevant analysis of current and emerging energy issues and options. It has been peer-reviewed anonymously by an additional 200 international experts. The GEA assesses the major global challenges for sustainable development and their linkages

Vänskap och organisering : En studie av Fountain House-rörelsen

Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingen ”Vänskap och organisering. En studie av Fountain House-rörelsen” tar sin utgångspunkt i frågan om vad som händer när mentalsjukhusen läggs ner. Bakgrunden är den process som kallas avinstitutionaliseringen, och tidens betoning på integrering, normalisering och självbestämmande. Omstruktureringen av mentalvården har inte varit problemfri i något land. Många The Fountain House Movement – or the Clubhouse Movement - is an organization for community support, meeting the needs of adults suffering from mental illness. It was founded by a self-help group among discharged patients in New York in the 1940s. Today there are more than 300 clubhouses around the world. The aim of this dissertation is to characterize, interpret and understand the Clubhouse Moveme

Packing effects in palladium(II) and platinum(II) compounds, X-ray crystallography

Popular Abstract in Swedish Det finns ett starkt samband mellan en förenings struktur och dess egenskaper. En detaljerad tredimensionell bild av en förenings struktur på molekylnivå är därför grundläggande information för att förstå dess reaktivitet, stabilitet och fysikaliska egenskaper. Röntgenkristallografi är ett utmärkt redskap för att ta reda på ett ämnes struktur i en kristall. En kristallsThis thesis focuses on i) the effect of packing on the molecular geometry ii) packing arrangements of neutral Pd(II) and Pt(II) complexes iii) the trans influence in Pt(II) complexes iv) the differences in bonding in corresponding Pd(II) and Pt(II) complexes and v) the geometry of Pd(II) complexes with potential catalytic properties. Detailed three-dimensional structural information at the atomic

A STUDY OF AN USER AND ENVIRONMENTAL FRIENDLY STORED ENERGY BASED EPU/APU-SYSTEM FOR MILITARY AEROSPACE APPLICATIONS

Modern military multi-role combat aircrafts need an emergency power system (EPU) to maintain back-up power supply for all normal and degraded flight modes. The reason for this requirement is that modern combat aircrafts are designed with built-in relaxed or negative stability. Inability of the Flight Control System to perform continuous, corrective control surface actuation, due to loss of power

Validity and responsiveness of the Clubfoot Assessment Protocol (CAP). A methodological study

Background: The Clubfoot Assessment Protocol (CAP)is a multi dimensional instrument designed for longitudinal follow up of the clubfoot deformity during growth. Item reliability has shown to be sufficient. In this article the CAP's validity and responsiveness is studied using the Dimeglio classification scoring as a gold standard. Methods: Thirty-two children with 45 congenital clubfeet were ass

Agree in syntax, agreement in signs

This paper explores the idea that abstract Agree is a precondition on Merge and an integrated part of it. That is, an element F merges with the structure X only if the relation of Agree holds between the two (the Agree Condition on Merge). The relation of Agree holds between F and X iff X contains an active feature fx that matches F. Move is forced by an inactive intervener ?x between F and fx, wh

POTENTIAL FOR RARE EARTH ELEMENT RESOURCE EFFICIENCY IMPROVEMENTS IN PERMANENT MAGNET MOTORS THROUGH AN EXTENSION OF THE ELECTRIC MOTOR PRODUCT GROUP REGULATION UNDER THE EU ECODESIGN DIRECTIVE

It has been proposed that the EU Ecodesign Directive can promote resource efficiency through relevant ecodesign requirements. This paper examines the potential for rare earth element (REE) resource efficiency improvements in the event the current regulation for electric motors under the Ecodesign Directive is to be extended to comprise REE-based permanent magnet motors. The research is based on li

Synthesis of bioactive natural products and analogues

Popular Abstract in Swedish I flera tusentals år har människan använt sig av naturen till hjälp för att bota åkommor och krämpor. Det som hon har dragit nytta av då är att alla växter och plantor producerar flertalet små föreningar till skydd eller nytta för plantan. Dessa som föreningar kan då interagera med andra växter och organismer till exempel som ett skydd mot att bli uppäten, som en lockelNatural products have until recently provided the only remedy for treatment of diseases. The development of modern chemistry in the last centuries has opened the door for tapping into the chemical diversity found in nature. Synthetic natural products, together with analogues, are an important piece in the puzzle towards curing many ailments. In this thesis, synthetic endeavors towards different bi
