Den bild vi har av Viktor Rydberg brukar präglas av antingen idealiserande antikdyrkan, förbjuden "gossekärlek" eller av Göteborgsliberalismen. Det tidigare författarskapet har ofta uppfattats som omoget och melodramatiskt. I sin studie av Rydbergs tidiga artiklar, bl.a. i den politisk-satiriska tidskriften Tomtebissen, samt romanen Fribytaren på Östersjön ger Birthe Sjöberg nya aspekter på den un

A hypothesis on the mechanism of ''salt-scaling'' of porous building materials is described. The hypothesis is based on theories on frost heaving in soils and observations made on micro ice-lens growth in cement paste specimens. The main principle is that ice crystals close to the surface are able to feed from the remaining liquid phase of the outer salt solution after freezing has begun. Though t

The objectives of Food4Me work package 5 included a baseline assessment of the ethical and legal aspects of personalised nutrition at the start of the project in 2011, as well as a final assessment at the end of the project (2015), taking into account results achieved in other work packages. The initial assessment made a number of ethical issues visible, most of them relating to the consumer of pe

Five students of a rescue training school cycled at 50 W for 20 minutes at 20 °C before walking up to 30 minutes in a climatic chamber at 55 °C and 30 % relative humidity. Four different types of clothing ensembles were used differing in terms of thickness and thermal insulation value were tested on separate days. All subjects completed 28-30 minutes in light clothing, but quitted after 20-27 minu

Popular Abstract in Swedish Samhällets produktion av avfall är ett ständigt pågående problem. Tidigare metodik för att ta hand om avfallet genom att deponera det på soptippar håller på att förändras. Genom beslut inom EU har det kommit krav på sortering av avfallet vilket har lett till att hushållsavfall inte längre kommer att få deponeras. Ett sätt att ta hand om avfall är att förbränna avfallet Baling of MSW has been extensively used in Sweden and other countries for the storage of energy (biomass for energy) for incineration and production of either and or electricity and heat. Baling is performed in two principally different ways, leading to cylindrical- or rectangular bales. This work has focused on various parameters during the storage of MSW. The first parameters investigated were g

Popular Abstract in English N/AAquatic systems worldwide receive large amounts of organic carbon from terrestrial sources. This ‘allochthonous’ organic carbon (AlloOC) affects critical physical and chemical properties of freshwater ecosystems, with consequences for food web structures and exchange of greenhouse gases with the atmosphere. In the boreal region, loadings of AlloOC are particularly high due to leaching from huge or

In this paper, we analyze expediting decisions in a continuous-time, continuous-stage serial supply chain facing a Poisson demand process. For each unit in the chain, one must decide at which speed it should be moved downstream, given the state of the system, so as to minimize total supply chain costs. We decompose the problem into a set of one-dimensional subproblems that can be easily solved and

Popular Abstract in Swedish Denna doktorsavhandling är en delstudie i ett större projekt som syftar till att utveckla Artificiell fotosyntes för att framställa ett värdefullt bränsle, vätgas, från solenergi och vatten. Vår typ av Artificiell Fotosyntes syftar till att framställa syntetiska “superämnen” som kan härma nyckelsteg i den naturliga fotosyntesen. Våra artificiella ”superämnen” skall kunnIn natural photosynthesis, solar energy is converted to chemical energy by photosynthetic reaction centers. In green plants and algae, Photosystem II (PSII) and Photosystem I (PSI) absorb light and utilize the charge separation reactions to convert solar energy to chemical energy. The energy is later stored in form of energy- rich substances formed in reductive biosynthetic reactions. The electron

Abstract in UndeterminedObjective To investigate acute posttraumatic reactions and forms of coping to the September 11 attack. Method A Web TV nationwide, representative sample of individuals 13 years or older (N=3134) was evaluated within three weeks of the attack. Measures included the SASRQ, the brief version of the COPE, and questions about demographics and attitudes toward the attackers. Resu
