Active heat capacity : models and parameters for the thermal performance of buildings

The thesis concerns the characterization and evaluation of nonsteady heat transfer in building components and building enclosures. The major aim of the underlaying research has been to assemble and develop simplified calculation procedures for this purpose. To establish a simple model for heat balance calculations three main items are treated: simplification of the heat transfer operators, the des

Treatment of effluent from alkali extraction with ultrafiltration and reverse osmosis

Effluent from alkali extraction of chlorinated pulp was treated with ultrafiltration (UF). Three different ultrafiltration (UF) membranes were tested. The permeate from one of the UF membranes was further treated with reverse osmosis (RO). Titration curves for the permeates from the different UF and R0 membranes were determined. The concentration of charged compounds was calculated from the titrat

Cutaneous receptive fields and topography of mossy fibres and climbing fibres projecting to cat cerebellar C3 zone

1. The topographical organization of mossy fibre input to the forelimb area of the paravermal C3 zone in cerebellar lobules IV and V was investigated in barbiturate-anaesthetized cats and compared with the previously described microzonal organization of climbing fibre input to the same part of the cortex. Recordings were made in the Purkinje cell and granule cell layers from single climbing fibre

Comparison of NCL-hTERT antibody reactivity and telomere repeat amplification protocol in situ in effusions

Objective To compare the performances of 2 methods, telomerase repeat amplification protocol (TRAP) in situ and antibodies to the hTERT protein, in assessing telomerase activity. Study Design TRAP in situ and immunomercial antibody (NCL-hTERT) was performed on 54 body cavity effusions. The results were compared and correlated to diagnosis. Results Thirty-four effitsions from patients with verified

Energianvändning och energibesparing i Malmö : undersökning av ett höghus

I rapporten redovisas mätningar av energianvändningen i flerbostadshus. Mätningar gjordes under fyra eldningssäsonger. Med åtgärder som fönstertätning, inreglering av radiator- och ventilationssystem m m erhölls energibesparingar om 9-21% i förhållande till första säsongens mätning utan åtgärder.

Quadrupole moments of wobbling excitations in Lu-163

Lifetimes of states in the triaxial strongly deformed bands of Lu-163 have been measured with the Gammasphere spectrometer using the Doppler-shift attenuation method. The bands have been interpreted as wobbling-phonon excitations from the characteristic electromagnetic properties of the transitions connecting the bands. Quadrupole moments are extracted for the zero-phonon yrast band and, for the f

Timing the doxycycline yields different patterns of genomic recombination in brain neurons with a new inducible Cre transgene.

We have developed a transgenic mouse expressing the Cre recombinase under control of a tetracycline-responsive promoter. Using a CamKIIalpha-driven tTA transgenic strain and a lacZ reporter mouse, we obtained the expected neuronal pattern of recombination in the olfactory lobe, cortex, striatum, hippocampus and Purkinje cells. Moreover, recombination can be completely abolished by feeding the mice

A new business model for baby prams based on easing and product remanufacturing

A shift in business thinking from selling products to providing service solutions to customer needs is becoming noticeable. It is driven by increasing competition and the need to identify new profit centres for producers of mature products. This paper identifies a new product group that could be interesting from the product-service system perspective - baby prams. The study presents a new business

Direct evidence of defect annihilation during structural relaxation of amorphous indium phosphide

Extended x-ray absorption fine structure measurements have been used to characterize the low-temperature, thermally induced structural relaxation of amorphous InP. We show reductions in both chemical and structural disorder associated with homopolar and heteropolar bonding, respectively, are operative during structural relaxation of this amorphous compound semiconductor. The latter is analogous to

Association between low concentrations of antibodies to protein alpha and Rib and invasive neonatal group B streptococcal infection

Background: Infection with group B streptococci (GBS) is a serious neonatal disease. The GBS cell surface proteins a and Rib elicit protective immunity in animal models and have been suggested as potential antigens in a vaccine against human GBS disease. Aims: To test the hypothesis that transplacentally transferred maternal antibodies to GBS proteins contribute to the protection of the neonate fr

Education, Labor Force Participation and Changing Fertility Patterns. A Study of Women and Socioeconomic Change in Twentieth Century Sweden.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Denna avhandling handlar om kvinnor och ekonomisk förändring i Sverige under 1900-talet. Den centrala frågeställningen är hur kvinnors förändrade utbildning och arbetsmarknadsdeltagande har påverkat och samvarierat med fertilitet över tid. Även om många idag anser Sverige vara ett jämställt land där män och kvinnor har lika möjligheter, fortsätter traditionella könsrollThis book deals with women and socioeconomic change in twentieth century Sweden. The main focus is on how women’s education and labor force participation have affected fertility over time. Although many perceive Sweden as a country where men and women have equal opportunities, traditional gender roles continue to constrain male and female activities and opportunities. The gender division of labor

Spin relaxation dynamics of quasiclassical electrons in ballistic quantum dots with strong spin-orbit coupling

We performed path integral simulations of spin evolution controlled by the Rashba spin-orbit interaction in the semiclassical regime for chaotic and regular quantum dots. The spin polarization dynamics have been found to be strikingly different from the D'yakonov-Perel' (DP) spin relaxation in bulk systems. Also an important distinction has been found between long time spin evolutions in classical
