Abstract in UndeterminedSubject-specific finite element models have been used to predict stress-state and fracture risk in individual patients. While many studies analysed quasi-axial loading configurations, only few works simulated sideways load configurations, such as those arising in a fall. The majority among these latter directly predicted bone strength, without assessing elastic strain predi

The lichen flora of the Nordic countries, containing about 2000 species, is regarded as one of the best known in the world. Lichenological research of the region has been continuous since the days of Erik Acharius (1757–1819), the ”father of lichenology”, but it is a sad fact that there is no modern flora treatment of the region's impressive lichen flora, the last attempt in the 1870s being that o

Popular Abstract in Swedish The Third Gospel for the First Time beskriver en förstagångsupplevelse av Lukasevangeliet, en uppläsning inför adressaten Teofilus vänner, vid ett tillfälle då evangeliet var nyskrivet. Den förutsätter att någon av Teofilus vänner kände till antika biografier och uppfattade Lukasevangeliet som en sådan. Dessutom hade han fått en grundläggande undervisning om den kristnaIf Luke’s first audience understood the Gospel as a biography, what would their experience of the text have been? This book invites the reader to accompany the first readers or hearers of Luke’s Gospel and to experience the narrative about the life of Jesus alongside them. It utilises Wolfgang Iser’s theory about reading and readers and focuses on gaps and vacancies in the text. The most important

Energy security has become a key priority in EU policy but climate change mitigation commitments live on in parallel. The purpose of this paper is to analyse the extent to which EU climate change mitigation policies and energy security policies are coherent – a relationship that is far from clear cut since both areas are both complex and wide ranging. We use a simple policy-analytical framework fo

Hösten 2008 startade Nationella forskarskolan i socialt arbete (RSSW), som ett samarbete mellan de lärosäten som ger forskarutbildning i ämnet. I den här rapporten beskrivs doktorandgruppen i socialt arbete och doktorandernas eventuella erfarenheter av deltagande i forskarskolans kurser.

This thesis deals with processes coupled to injury in the peripheral nervous system (PNS), with a general aim to investigate the role of phospholipase A2 (PLA2) enzymes in axonal outgrowth. The axonal outgrowth of dorsal root ganglia (DRG) neurons in vitro was reduced by several different inhibitors of PLA2 activity and enhanced by an activator of this enzyme. The PLA2 inhibitors acted locally in

To a large extent, the thesis deals with a future solar telescope, the Large Earth-based Solar Telescope (LEST). The dynamical properties of the telescope, in particular its live optics system, have been investigated through implementation of a computer model, which has been used for simulations. The model includes the various parts of the telescope, as well as various image degrading effects. Of
