Evolution of Near and Intermediate Field in A Negatively Buoyant Jet

The purpose of this study is to explore the behavior of a dense jet and bottom plume, composed of brine water of heavier effluent into a quiescent homogeneous ambient, discharged into a receiving body of lighter fresh water (tank). This situation is common in connection with freshwater production from sea water (desalination), which produces a brine waste stream, usually discharged back into sea w

Småländsk världsindustri - en studie om entreprenörer och kluster 1950-2002

The thesis describes and analyzes six companies’ origins and development over the period 1950-2002, a time when the Swedish industrial sector was dominated by companies that were formed in the early 1900s. The firms, situated in the same region, have after an eventful journey become world leaders in the segment of machines with capacity to lift more than five tonnes. Investigations in Swedish busi

Nonlinear piezoelectric effects - towards physics-based computational modelling of micro-cracking, fatigue, and switching

Piezoelectric ceramics -- as one widely commercialised group of smart materials -- exhibit a great potential for various engineering applications. Their high-frequency capabilities are in particular attractive for actuator and sensor devices, which nowadays are present in daily-life-technologies such as cellular phones, fuel injection systems, and so forth. At high loading levels however, severely

Highest spin discrete levels in Ce-131,Ce-132: Spin generation near the mesoscopic limit

The three superdeformed (SD) bands in Ce-132 and the two SD bands in Ce-131 have been extended to higher spin, following experiments with the EUROBALL IV spectrometer. The two SD bands in Ce-131 have been linked together. However, despite the relatively high population intensity of the bands (up to 5% of the respective channel), it has not been possible to unambiguously link any of the five SD ban

Systemic and Local Inflammatory Mediator Response to Major Surgery

Popular Abstract in Swedish Kroppens svar på vävnadsskada är avgörande för initierandet av läknings-processen och försvaret mot invaderande mikroorganismer. Det lokala samspelet mellan de olika cellerna i immunförsvaret sker genom cellsignalering via små proteiner kallade cytokiner. Ett kraftigt eller obalanserat svar kan medföra att inflammationsdrivande cytokiner (IL-6, IL-1, TNF) läcker ut i blCell-signalling via cytokines modulates the local response to surgical trauma, directs the immunologic response and initiates the healing process. Surgical trauma induces a systemic cytokine response and a down-regulation of the antigen presentation capacity of monocytes (HLA-DR expression), which is associated with a poor prognosis if pronounced. The aims with the studies in this thesis were to i

Age estimation of wild boar (Sus scrofa) based on molariform mandibular tooth development and its application to seasonality at the Mesolithic site of Ringkloster

The molariform mandibular tooth development in wild boar has been described in order to increase the reliability and precision in age estimation. The age at eight different stages of tooth development has been determined based on radiographs of 114 mandibles. The method is applied to estimate age of death in 53 mandibles of juvenile wild boar and seasonality at the Late Mesolithic site of Ringklos

A Bayesian MCMC based estimation of Long memory in state space model

To estimate the long memory series in the framework of state space model is rarely documented although the theoretical foundation was well built in late 90s, and the literatures concentrate mainly on the estimation in stationary case. This paper aims to estimate the parameters in a wide range of long memory series by applying approximate Maximum Likelihood Estimation (MLE) and Bayesian Monte Carlo
