In this paper, the results from a joint industry-academia project in industrial robotic force control are presented. The extension and implementation of an external sensor system for an industrial robot system, which can be used for high-bandwidth force control, are described. Results from two industrial applications using the system are presented, a stub grinding application using a new compliant

This is a German translation of "Förrädaren, skökan och självmördaren", an analysis of medieval narrative culture, expemplified by legends about Judas Iscariot, Mary Magdalene, Pontius Pilate and Joseph of Arimathea.

When reading this book you are embarking on an ethnographic journey, granting you access into the field of ethnography, its methods, knowledge claims and aims. The journey takes you to the indigenous people of Japan, a warrior Nation in Canada and Wall Street financial actors. The book reaches beyond fragmentary knowledge of the studied people and opens up for illustrating not only ethnography in

Despite the increasing research activity on structural use of glass in the past years, there is still a lack of comprehensive design codes and standards linked to real-life applications on a structural level. However, more and more ambitious buildings and structures are built every year. Thus the knowledge is out there. The aim of the presented project is to collect data on the existing design phi

Anna Vasa (1568-1625), dotter till Johan III och Katarina Jagellonica, levde en stor del av sitt liv vid brodern Sigismunds hov i Polen. Sjuklig och utan egen familj som hon var, tydde hon sig till familjen Gyllenstierna och fann glädje i att på alla sätt engagera sig som dess välgörare. Vid 1990-talets slut hittades 24 dittills okända brev, skrivna på svenska, från prinsessan Anna till Sigrid och

This thesis considers the ecological and evolutionary significance of seed and bud dormancy. First, I present theoretical support to the idea that seed dormancy may evolve as a strategy to reduce sib competition in temporally homogeneous environments. In this thesis, I also analyze two different processes that may give rise to parent-offspring conflicts in angiosperms, viz. seed germination and se

Kidney transplants across the blood-group barrier are medically feasible even if blood-group compatibility is preferred from a medical point of view. However, these types of transplants are motivated by the fact that they help in increasing the number of kidney transplants with living donors. This paper investigates priority matchings in a pairwise kidney exchange problem where blood-group incompa
