Understanding how and why soil microbial communities respond to temperature changes is important for understanding the drivers of microbial distribution and abundance. Studying soil microbe responses to warming is often made difficult by concurrent warming effects on soil and vegetation and by a limited number of warming levels preventing the detection of non-linear effects. A unique area in Icela

Nanometric cutting of a single crystal copper workpiece of different crystallographic orientations by a stiff cylindrical cubic diamond tool has been investigated by MD simulations using the freeware LAMMPS. The chip evolves during the cutting process and forms depending on crystal orientation, cutting velocity and tool geometry. It was found that no significant difference in the cutting force mag

Building on the base of the existing telescopes of the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) and ALMA, the next-generation EHT (ngEHT) aspires to deploy ∼10 more stations. The ngEHT targets an angular resolution of ∼15 microarcseconds. This resolution is achieved using Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) at the shortest radio wavelengths ∼1 mm. The Submillimeter Array (SMA) is both a standalone radio

Medborgarskap är en viktig status för individen. Medborgarskap innebär både rättigheter och skyldigheter för staten och för individen. Att byta och förvärva ett nytt medborgarskap är en stor ockasion i en persons liv. Denna uppsats kommer att granska kriteriet hederligt levnadssätt som återfinns i 11 § femte punkten MedbL. Intressant nog har detta kriterium utvecklats främst genom praxis. Denna uCitizenship is an essential status for an individual. It entails both rights and obligations for both the state and the individual. To change and gain new citi-zenship is a monumental occasion in an individual’s life. This essay will ex-plore the criterium of honorable living within the 11 § fifth point in the Swe-dish citizenship law. Interestingly enough, this one has chiefly developed through

Bakgrund Handhållen dynamometer (HHD) är ett instrument som inom fysioterapi används för att mäta muskelstyrka. Mätinstrumentets reliabilitet och validitet har undersökts och fastställts under de senaste decennierna, men få studier har jämfört olika typer och modeller med varandra. Syfte och frågeställningar Syftet med denna studie är att jämföra en tryck-HHD (Echo Wireless Muscle Tester) med en d

This study aims to examine the energy discourse and how it has changed in the Swedish climate debate through analyzing the closing debates prior the election of the Swedish government from Sveriges Television (SVT). The study also aspires to illuminate how sociocultural ideas of energy, climate and ways of living effects the discourse in the climate debate. The analytical framework is descriptive

3D foam scaffolds were produced in a "bottom-up" approach from lyophilised cationic cellulose nanofibril (CCNF) dispersions and emulsions (CCNF degree of substitution 23.0 ± 0.9%), using a directional freezing/lyophilisation approach, producing internal architectures ranging from aligned smooth walled micro channels, mimicking vascularised tissue, to pumice-like wall textures, reminiscent of poro

En kvalitativ studie som består av sex intervjuer med medarbetare från en privat bank. Syftet med studien var att beskriva och analysera hur medarbetare upplever att deras chef påverkar deras personliga utveckling genom mjuka värden, hårda värden och olika sorters ledarskap. Ett snöbollsurval och 30-60 minuter långa intervjuer användes som grund för resultatet. Empirin analyserades sedan utifrån v

Stiff, elastic, viscous shear thinning aqueous gels are formed upon dispersion of low weight percent concentrations of cationically modified cellulose nanofibrils (CCNF) in water. CCNF hydrogels produced from cellulose modified with glycidyltrimethylammonium chloride, with degree of substitution (DS) in the range 10.6(3)-23.0(9)%, were characterised using NMR spectroscopy, rheology and small angle

De nya kraven för permanent uppehållstillstånd saboterar Sveriges strävan efter att vara en kunskapsbaserad nation – och är ett svek mot utländska doktorander. Det anser Jenny Iao-Jörgensen, ordförande för doktorandföreningen inom SULF, Sveriges universitetslärare och forskare.

Sweden's new migration act imposes tough conditions for permanent residency. Jenny Iao-Jörgensen and Benny Borghei of the Swedish Association of University Teachers and Researchers (SULF) argue this will do long-term damage to the country's attractiveness to the top international talents.

The ideal image of an Early Modern public execution site might be a highly elevated and clearly visible place in the landscape, perhaps close to a road, and not too far from a town or a village. This visibility pattern is also what most of the research and the studies on public execution sites in southern Sweden has shown. However, there are also exceptions. The aim of this thesis has been to obta

Thermal management of electric vehicles, especially battery thermal management, is critical to driving range and operational safety. To find a vehicle thermal management system with higher energy efficiency and environmental protection, an environmentally-friendly and efficient battery and cabin parallel cooling thermal management system was evaluated with CO2 as the working fluid. First, differen
