In the present paper we describe an inclusive tourist application, The Time Machine, that allows users to explore an environment or be guided along a trail while experiencing virtual sounds and get information (visual and auditory) at key locations in the environment. We report the application design and preliminary results from evaluations in a city environment. Results indicate that the Time Mac

Masculinity in the service of feminism. Drag kinging as practice, politics, and desire. The aim of the thesis is to explore drag kinging as lived experience at the crossroads of masculinity, the body, and feminist politics. Drag kinging is defined as a conscious performance of masculinity. Theoretically, the study takes a feminist and queer phenomenological perspective as a point of departure. In

This conference paper discusses the artist Zarah Leander as a gay icon and queer diva.

Popular Abstract in Swedish De mest briljanta ljuskällor som finns idag är de så kallade synkrotronljuskällorna som kan generera ljus över ett mycket brett våglängdsspectrum, från synligt ljus ända till mycket korta våglängder - röntgenstrålar. Det existerar många sådana faciliteter runt om i världen och de används dagligen i olika experiment för att öka våra kunskaper om material på en mikrospopiThere is a strong desire for short wavelength (~1 Å), short pulsewidth (

Popular Abstract in Swedish Händerna utsätts dagligen för olika typer av faror. Handskador av varierande omfattning är därför inte ovanliga. Dessa kan drabba både barn och vuxna, såväl under fritiden som i arbetslivet. Panoramat av handskador har förändrats. För omkring 40 år sedan var handskador vanligt förekommande på arbetsplatsen, men har sedan dess minskat så att de för 20 år sedan utgjorde uHand injuries have a profound impact not only on the patient’s activity of daily living and during leisure time but also on working capability. Such injuries may therefore also generate substantial costs for society in terms of sick-leave and treatment. In the present thesis, the panorama, costs (within the health-care system, due to lost production and total costs), outcome and health status of p

Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingen beskriver utvecklingen och utvalda tillämpningar av en global vegetationsmodell, BIOME4. Modellen kan appliceras på frågeställningar kring vegetationsfördelning och klimat på höga latituder, produktion av spårgaser, och isotopers biogeokemi. Den demonstrerar hur en teoretisk modell, baserad på växtfysiologins och ekologins principer, kan tillämpas på interdThis thesis describes the development and selected applications of a global vegetation model, BIOME4. The model is applied to problems in high-latitude vegetation distribution and climate, trace gas production, and isotope biogeochemistry. It demonstrates how a modeling approach, based on principles of plant physiology and ecology, can be applied to interdisciplinary problems that cannot be adequa

Abstract in UndeterminedThe Nordic countries have been slow EU integrators. Some of them are not even members of the Union. Little does it matter. Competition law has been at the forefront of the vivid Nordic academic debate for years.
