This paper gives an overview of recently published Swedish guidelines for service-life design of concrete structures. The guideline is based on the probabilistic methodology developed in the European project DuraCrete. The methodology has been further developed and applied to Swedish conditions. The design is based on the definition of several “maintenance classes” where the failure probability is

Det tänkande som ligger under Kristinas självframställning - livet är ett skådespel - beskrivs, samt de genrebundna mönster för Kristinas jag som hon utnyttjar påvisas i Krisinas text, bl a Plutarkos biografi över Alexander den store, den kvinnliga helgonbiografin. Dessa kan knytas till Kristinas manliga klädsel, hennes transvestism samt till hennes bild av sitt offer(abdikationen)som ett hjältedå

Discussion concerning school and cultural change

The films of Swedish filmmaker and writer Carl Henric Svenstedt (b. 1937)are discussed within the framework of the tradition of poetic cinema and documentarism. In focus are four of his later films, Winter Gale (2007), Harg! Platsens musik (2010), Änglastämman (2010), and Tidens gång - Im Lauf der Zeit (2012).

Popular Abstract in Swedish Ett poröst material är ett material med hålrum fyllda av gas eller vätska. Transport av molekyler genom ett poröst material beror på materialets struktur och har betydelse för områden som oljeutvinning, katalytisk avgasrening och blöjors uppsugningsförmåga. Porösa material vars struktur förändras beroende på vattenhalt är svåra att studera eftersom många av de traditioProton nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) was used to study the self-diffusion of water in porous systems that respond to a change in water content in order to elucidate the porous structure and the properties of the confined water. In the carbohydrate systems cellulose fibers and starch granules, water is free to move throughout the porous objects, albeit with a rate reduced from the value of the

The present thesis concerns middle-aged women’s subjective well-being (SWB). The interest is focused on the importance of childhood factors, social circumstances, and personality for middle-aged women’s general SWB. Data were taken from the longitudinal research program Individual Development and Adaptation (IDA, Magnusson & Bergman, 2000) and concerned a sample of about 300 women. The main an

Objective: To investigate glycaemic and satiating properties of potato products in healthy subjects using energy-equivalent or carbohydrate-equivalent test meals, respectively. Subjects and setting: Thirteen healthy subjects volunteered for the first study, and 14 for the second. The tests were performed at Applied Nutrition and Food Chemistry, Lund University, Sweden. Experimental design and te
