Ultrahydrophobic properties of porous silicon for surface based bioanalysis

Previously we reported the extreme water repellency of randomly organized macro-/nanoporous silicon surfaces [1]. The texturized silicon with hierarchical porous structure in micrometer and nanometer scale was shown to exhibit the superhydrophobic behaviour. Contact angles as high as 176º can be easily achieved with further fluoroalkylsilane modification of the porous surfaces. Porous silicon tech

Separable Lyapunov functions for monotone systems

Separable Lyapunov functions play vital roles, for example, in stability analysis of large-scale systems. A Lyapunov function is called max-separable if it can be decomposed into a maximum of functions with one-dimensional arguments. Similarly, it is called sum-separable if it is a sum of such functions. In this paper it is shown that for a monotone system on a compact state space, asymptotic stab

The Quest of the Unique Jesus and Its Implications for Global Dialogue

A recurrent issue and to a considerable extent also a major obstacle in contemporary theology of religions are various claims of "uniqueness". This article critically considers one particular aspect, i.e., the quest of the unique Jesus in New Testament scholarship and its implications for global interreligious dialogue. It is argued that the quest of the unique Jesus be abandoned since it is neith

Returns of the Other: The Roles of Repetition and Representation in Mass-Media Coverage of Japan-Taiwan Relations

This dissertation is a thematic reading of 1,574 items from four Japanese and three Taiwanese major daily newspapers published in the 2000-2008 period. It argues that the concepts of repetition and representation play key structural and narrative roles in the sources and outlines how these concepts operate and how they interrelate on a content level as well as on a level of larger media frameworks

Regeneration of Peripheral Nerves. The role of protein kinases, with emphasis on neurotrophic factor stimulation

Popular Abstract in Swedish Regeneration av perifera nerver. Proteinkinasers betydelse, speciellt med avseende på ämnen som stimulerar nervtillväxt. Perifera nerver är belägna utanför hjärnan eller ryggmärgen. De har kontakt med och styr organ i kroppen. Med regeneration av nerver menas återutväxten av nervecllens utlöpare, axonet, och återetablering av kontakten med målorganet. Substanser som stThe purpose of this study was to investigate the role of protein kinases in peripheral nerve regeneration, with the use of dorsal root ganglia (DRG) and nodose ganglia explants from adult mice. The effects of neurotrophic factor stimulation and protein kinase inhibition were studied for long (days) and short term (minutes) effects. The protein kinase systems studied were protein kinase C (PKC), th

"Det var en plågsam stund, en stund af indre smärta" : En psykobiografi över Lina Sandells sorgebearbetning mellan åren 1858-1861

Bereavement and sorrow are complex phenomena and processes of the human psyche. Central to this doctoral thesis is Lina Sandell (1832–1903,one of Sweden’s most productive and prominent authors of evangelicalism during the 19th century. Her hymn texts ”Day by day” and ”Children of the Heavenly Father” are well known outside Scandinavia. The main purpose of this psychobiographical study was to inves

"White and Green": Conclusions and Recommendations

The move towards the liberalisation of the energy markets in the whole world and the general shift from command-and-control to market mechanisms bring forward new ways of stimulating initiatives to increase the efficiency in the final uses of energy and demand-side management. In the past, energy policies were implemented in most countries by direct action of the governments through state monopoli

Consumers’ value creating processes in distribution services for online shopping

Extended abstract Recent studies point at significant and ongoing technology induced changes in the retail landscape, creating new and interesting research avenues, new managerial challenges and a need to rethink existing business models (e.g., Burt and Sparks 2003; Kollmann et al., 2012; Sorescu et al., 2011). This paper aims at contributing to the literature concerning the managerial aspects th

Computational Analysis of Gas Flow and Heat Transport Phenomena in Monolithic Structures for High Temperature Processes

High-temperature catalytic processes such as partial oxidation of Methane (POX) and steam Methane reforming (SMR) may benefit from use of reactor systems using monolithic honeycomb structures. Hereby, process performance is enhanced through more efficient heat transfer and considerable smaller reactor foot-prints than for conventional reactor concepts. Compact ceramic heat exchange structures may

Interpretation Process at Çatalhöyük using 3D

The project “3D-Digging at Çatalhöyük” started in 2009 as an on-site digital experiment to record every phase of the archaeological excavation in 3D, using different technologies such as terrestrial laser scanning (TLS), image-based modeling (IBM), remote sensing, and photogrammetry. The end goal of the project is to make the excavation process virtually reversible using different simulation envir
