I Norden finns ett antal gränsregioner, där arbetspendling, handel och andra kontakter över gränserna utgör naturliga inslag i vardagen. I alla de nordiska länderna finns hos regeringar och parlament en politisk strävan att gynna rörlighet mellan de nordiska länderna – men också ambitioner att skydda egna intressen och bevara inarbetade strukturer. Avsikten med artikeln är att i ljuset av denna spThe article explores the possibilities for legal research on Nordic border regions, highlighting border barriers, organizational structures for cooperation and public order and safety.

On 26 May 2016 the Court of Justice of the EU (CJEU) decided Bookit Ltd v HMRC (Bookit)1 which dealt with the interpretation of the exemption for transactions concerning payments within article 135(1)(d) of the Council Directive on the common system of value added tax (the VAT Directive).2 Article 135(1)(d) of the VAT Directive provides that Member States shall exempt "transactions, including nego

Partially premixed combustion (PPC) is used to meet the increasing demands of emission legislation and to improve fuel efficiency. With gasoline fuels, PPC has the advantage of a longer premixed duration of the fuel/air mixture, which prevents soot formation. In addition, the overall combustion stability can be increased with a longer ignition delay, providing proper fuel injection strategies. In

Laser-induced incandescence (LII), elastic light scattering (ELS) and extinction were used to investigate the early stages of soot formation when seeding metal salts at various concentrations into a premixed ethylene/air flame on a PerkinElmer burner. The investigation contained seven salts, where we in this work mainly focus on two of these salts, potassium chloride (KCl) and iron chloride (FeCl3

Quantitative concentrations measurements using time-resolved laser-induced fluorescence have been demonstrated for nitric oxide (NO) in flame. Fluorescence lifetimes measured using a picosecond Nd:YAG laser and optical parametric amplifier system have been used to directly compensate the measured signal for collisional quenching and evaluate NO concentration. The full evaluation also includes the

The release of alkali metals (Na and K) during biomass pyrolysis was numerically and experimentally investigated using Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy technique that could extend the measurements of alkali metal concentration to the sooty pyrolysis stage. Two distinct peaks of metal concentrations were observed at the pyrolysis stage and at the gasification stage. Since during the pyrolysis s

Some evidences suggest that obesity impairs the effectiveness of TNF inhibitors. We examined the impact of body mass index (BMI) on the clinical effectiveness of abatacept in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients. This is a pooled analysis of 10 prospective cohorts of RA patients. All patients with available BMI were included in this study. The primary endpoint was drug retention of abatacept in the

This study aimed at obtaining an in-depth mapping of expressional changes of the cerebral microvasculature after transient global cerebral ischemia (GCI) and the impact on these GCI-induced expressional changes of post-GCI treatment with a mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase (MEK1/2) inhibitor. GCI was induced in male Wistar rats followed by treatment with either vehicle or the MEK1/2 inhibito

Preclinical data suggest that chronic stress may cause cellular damage and mitochondrial dysfunction, potentially leading to the release of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) into the bloodstream. Major depressive disorder has been associated with an increased amount of mtDNA in leukocytes from saliva samples and blood; however, no previous studies have measured plasma levels of free-circulating mtDNA in a

The generation of human induced neurons (hiNs) via exogenous delivery of neural transcription factors represents a novel technique to obtain disease and patient specific neurons. These cells have the potential to be used for disease modeling, diagnostics and drug screening, and also to be further developed for brain repair. In the present study, we utilized hiNs to develop an unbiased screening as

Abstract: Long Term Evolution (LTE) supports peak data rates in excess of 300 Mb/s. A good approach to achieve such rates is by parallelizing the required processing in turbo decoders. An interleaver is an important part of a turbo decoder. LTE uses the Quadratic Permutation Polynomial (QPP) interleaver, which makes it suitable for parallel decoding. In this paper, we propose an efficient architec

Hohe Tauern i Österrike är en av Europas vackrastenationalparker. I det artrika alplandskapet finnsbåde helt skyddade områden och zoner där bl.a.boskapsskötsel och bergsbruk tillåts.
