Får det lov att vara en dammsugare?

Inom försäljning av avancerade tekniska produkter och tjänster finns en relativt klar konsensus om vissa principer. Framför allt råder det enighet om att förståelsen av kundnyttan kommer i första hand. Man måste se processen från kundens perspektiv, och det måste finnas en klar och lättförståelig nytta för kunden. När det gäller god undervisning råder inte samma uppenbara konsensus. Det är inte sj

Octree Light Propagation Volumes

This paper presents a new method for representing Light Propagation Volumes using an octree data structure, and for allowing light from regular point light sources to be injected into them. The resulting technique uses full octrees with the help of a separate data structure for representing the octree structure. The octree structure enables light propagation to be performed at a lower resolution t

Att förstå mänsklig handling : Slutrapport från ett forskningsprogram

Genom Stiftelsen Riksbankens Jubileumsfonds forskningsprogram "Att förstå mänsklig handling" finns det nu för första gången en storskalig filosofihistorisk tematisering av föreställningar om handling och aktörskap från antiken till tidigmoderna och moderna filosofer. Varken i Skandinavien eller i en större internationell kontext har något liknande genomförts tidigare. Denna skrift är programmets s

On interactions between Packaging and Logistics - Exploring implications of technological developments

Packaging is a fundamental element in logistics systems. Packaging not only affects every logistical activity; it is also recognised as having a significant impact on logistics costs and performance. In order for logisticians and packaging professionals to gain insight into packaging-dependent costs and performance, the interactions between packaging systems and logistics systems must be understoo

Overview of the MPEG Reconfigurable Video Coding Framework

Abstract in UndeterminedVideo coding technology in the last 20 yearshas evolved producing a variety of different and com-plex algorithms and coding standards. So far the speci-fication of such standards, and of the algorithms thatbuild them, has been done case by case providingmonolithic textual and reference software specifica-tions in different forms and programming languages.However, very littl

Vasodilator actions of EDHF and anandamide

Popular Abstract in Swedish Det innersta cellagret i blodkärl (endotelet) kan frisätta både kontraktila (kärlsammandragande) och relaxerande (kärlvidgande) faktorer. När receptorer på endotelet stimuleras med till exempel acetylkolin så frisätts relaxerande faktorer. Dessa faktorer verkar vara åtminstone tre till antalet och två av dessa har identifierats som kväveoxid och prostacyclin. Den tredjeVasodilator responses to endothelium-derived hyperpolarizing factor (EDHF) and anandamide in isolated arteries were investigated. A combination of the potassium channel blockers charybdotoxin and apamin inhibits EDHF-mediated relaxations. Experiments in which charybdotoxin or apamin was substituted with other potassium channel inhibitors indicated that small- and intermediate-conductance calcium-a

Multiple window decomposition of time-frequency kernels using a penalty function for suppressed sidelobes

This paper presents multiple windows with suppressed side-lobes that approximate a time-frequency kernel. The multiple windows are given from the eigenvalue decomposition of the time-lag kernel. By using a penalty matrix both in time- and frequency domain and solving a generalized eigenvalue problem, the multiple windows are achieved. Examples are given and the resulting sidelobe suppression and t

Legitimering av tvångsvård : Klienter och deras socialsekreterare om LVM

Syftet med denna avhandling har varit att undersöka tvångsvårdens legitimitet. För det ändamålet har jag genomfört, spelat in och transkriberat kvalitativa intervjuer med 80 klienter – som var föremål för LVM-vård våren 2006 – samt deras socialsekreterare när klienterna dels var intagna på LVM-hem och dels vid en uppföljning cirka sex månader efter tvångsvårdens slut. Avhandlingen utgår från fem The aim of this dissertation was to examine the legitimacy and the legitimizing of compulsory care for substance abusers according to LVM. For this purpose I have conducted, recorded and transcribed qualitative interviews with 80 clients – taken into such care in spring 2006 – and their social welfare officers when the clients were in compulsory care and then again about six months after its termi

Gas imaging by infrared gas-correlation spectrometry

We describe a new method for visualization of gas flows based on infrared absorption and gas-correlation techniques. This result is a gray-scale or false color-coded image showing the distribution of a specific gas in the area studied. A sequence of images showing the workplace test setup with a turbulent flowing gas is presented.

Construction(s) of Swedish Family Policy, 1930-2000

Family politics has been important in the development of the Swedish ‘women-friendly’ and weak breadwinner welfare state. This article analyses the development of Swedish family politics during the last century by taking as its point of departure the amalgamation of political ambitions, social reforms, and ideas put forward by experts in government commissions. Results suggest that the social scie
