In this thesis we study the steady Euler equations in three dimensions where the solution is assumed to have nonvanishing vorticity. The thesis is based on three research papers. In the first and the third we study the steady Euler equations in the context of the water wave problem, which means we are solving a free boundary problem, while in the second paper we study the equations in a fixed cyli

Background: Approximately 80% of soft tissue sarcoma (STS) recurrences, local and metastatic disease, are diagnosed within the first 3 years after primary diagnosis and treatment. Recurrences, however, can present after a longer period of remission. Our goal was to identify factors that may predict the risk of late recurrence. Methods: We identified 677 patients with STS of the extremities and tru

Background: Presently, 1 in 4 Lebanese adolescents is involved in bullying, with 12% being perpetrators. In Lebanon, around 90% of bullying incidents occur in schools. Given the lack of studies tackling bullying perpetration in Lebanon, this study aims to identify and target risk factors of bullying perpetration among Lebanese adolescents, which would serve future prevention and intervention progr

Wood growth constitutes the main process for long‐term atmospheric carbon sequestration in vegetation. However, our understanding of the process of wood growth and its response to environmental drivers is limited. Current dynamic global vegetation models (DGVMs) are mainly photosynthesis‐driven and thus do not explicitly include a direct environmental effect on tree growth. However, physiological

Studies of laser-induced fluorescence in rat tissues, including cancer tumors have been performed. Contrast enhancement techniques have been developed which improve the ability to localize a tumor when using fluorescence from the tumor-seeking substance hematoporphyrin derivative (HPD). A multi-color fluorescence imaging technique has been tested. A discussion of clinical applications is included.

Lung transplantation is the only option for end-stage lung diseases, but organ shortage remains problematic. Generating lungs ex vivo could overcome shortages with current approaches being explored for lung tissue engineering utilizing a biologically derived, synthetic or hybrid scaffold which is seeded with cells and cultured ex vivo. Ideally, cells could be sourced from the transplant recipient

Syftet med texten är att undersöka attityder till historiska händelser i Pompejis materiella arv; att svara på frågan varför man valde att ge fast form åt minnesbildning genom en undersökning av hur och var lokala händelser memorerats och en reflektion över vilken sorts händelser som förts fram. I vidaste mening handlar texten om romersk historiebruk utanför den styrande staden. Kontrasten mellan

The major softwood hemicellulose is galactoglucomannan (GGM), an abundant polysaccharide which constitutes up to 25% of the dry weight of wood, much of which is discarded in current refinery practices. Among the enzymes responsible for the degradation of this hemicellulose are the β-mannanases. Apart from their natural hydrolytic action, some β-mannanases have the ability to catalyse the synthesis

Ecologists and evolutionary biologists are well aware that natural and sexual selection do not operate on traits in isolation, but instead act on combinations of traits. This long-recognized and pervasive phenomenon is known as multivariate selection, or—in the particular case where it favours correlations between interacting traits—correlational selection. Despite broad acknowledgement of correla

Background: Implementing innovative health service models in existing service systems is complicated and context dependent. Flexible assertive community treatment (FACT) is a multidisciplinary service model aimed at providing integrated care for people with severe mental illness. The model was developed in the Netherlands and is now used in several countries, such as Norway. The Norwegian service

I en bok om det skapelseteologiska arvet idag undersöker jag i ett kapitel predikans profetiska potential. Jag presenterar vad profetisk predikan är enligt framförallt Walter Brueggemann och Leonora Tubbs Tisdale. Jag presenterar också Gustaf Wingrens syn på predikan och för sedan dessa i dialog med varandra. Kapitlet mynnar ut i en fråga om hur kyrkan kan vara profetisk och samtidigt folkkyrkligt

Lars Melins nyutkomna bok är löftesrik: formen är stilsäker och titeln smått genial: Stil – språkets svårfångade signalsystem.

Pickering emulsions are emulsions stabilized by solid particles. Particles with optimal dual wettability toward both of the oil and water phases, can be adsorbed onto the interface, thereby providing the stability of the emulsions. Starch granules have attracted attention due to their positive characteristics, such as being widely available, inexpensive, biodegradable, and non-allergenic. Due to a

We have used the FERMI free-electron laser to perform time-resolved photoelectron imaging experiments on a complex group of resonances near 15.38 eV in the absorption spectrum of molecular nitrogen, N2, under jet-cooled conditions. The new data complement and extend the earlier work of Fushitani et al. [Opt. Express 27, 19702–19711 (2019)], who recorded time-resolved photoelectron spectra for this
