This disstertation is a study of the foundations of the early state of Lombard Italy, AD 568-774. The main issue of the work is the hypothetical integration of social sectors within the context of an early state, as opposed to alternative forms of integration. the possibilities of achieving this kind of integration is regarded as connected with the urban infrastructure. The chief analysis consist

Anhörigprogrammet Familjeband (engelska ”Family Connections”) är ett 12-15 veckors pedagogiskt program för anhöriga till patienter med borderline-personlighetsstörning och andra patienter med svårigheter att reglera sina känslor. Detta program har översatts till svenska och implementerats vid olika behandlingsenheter i landet. Denna studie beskriver en utvärdering av Familjeband såsom programmet g

Adequate heat balance is critical to human performance in the heat. If heat balance cannot be maintained, the core temperature increases and body water dehydration leads to exhaustion and limit the performance. Clothing heat transfer properties.. thermal insulation and water vapour resistance, modify heat exchange and may indirectly affect performance. Work in protective clothing quickly becomes e

Kan man i forskningsdominerade miljöer bättre än idag utnyttja sin närhet till (och kunskap om) de egna forskningsprocesserna då man planerar undervisningen? Hur ska undervisningsdominerade högskolemiljöer hämta inspiration till sin undervisning från forskningen i det egna ämnet? Hur ska individuella lärare orientera sin undervisning visavi sin forskning under karriären? Och sist men inte minst; v

Wireline communication is the Internet access technology with the largest number of subscribers worldwide. On physical-layer level, the traditional way to transmit signals at one end of a wire pair and to extract receive signals at the other end is to apply differential-mode signalling: transmit and receive signals correspond to voltage differences between the two wires. Differential-mode signalli

This chapter investigates the interaction between monuments, city-scape and viewers. It targets representation of movement and arrest in the public narrative reliefs of Imperial Rome. A leading idea is that movement in the image was consciously designed to connect with movement in front of it – to attract and guide the viewers’ move and gaze. As a consequence, the nature of the monument and its im

Syftet med projektet Skåne bygger för framtidens äldre har varit att ta fram ett underlag för den regionala planeringen av trygghetsbostäder i södra Sverige. Vad innebär sådan planering i 2010-talet? Vilka förändringar tar man hänsyn till i planerna? Vari består nytänkandet? Bakgrunden är den riktning som pekades ut av Äldreboendedelegationen (SOU 2007) om behovet av att skapa ett varierat utbud a

Det finns idag kunskap och teknik för att bygga hus med mycket lågt energibehov för drift. En fråga är då vilka åtgärder man kan vidta för att ytterligare minska användningen av energi och resurser i byggnader. Är driftsfasen även i lågenergihus den helt dominerande fasen under byggnadens livstid? Hur stor betydelse har val av material? Hur stora vinster kan göras genom återvinning av rivningsrest

A short history of Eastern Orthodox Christianity in Norway.

We have used image cell analysis to analyse nuclear DNA content on fine needle aspiration biopsies from 96 patients diagnosed to have prostate cancer 1980-81. By stratifying diploid and tetraploid tumours according to a cytometric proliferation index (PI), we suggest a new DNA-classification that is prognostic of death from prostate cancer in multivariate analysis including conventional prognostic

Popular Abstract in Swedish Brännskador orsakade av eld, hett vatten, ånga, frätande kemikalier och elektricitet förekommer i hela världen men det är utvecklingsländerna som är värst drabbade av dessa olyckor. Av de dödsfall från brännskador som rapporterades år 1998 kom 98 % från utvecklingsländer enligt världshälsoorganisationen (WHO). Andelen dödsfall från den afrikanska kontinenten utgjorde 24Background: The burden of burn injuries is in developing countries, the majority of deaths (98%) related to fire burns are in developing countries.These injuries are associated with poverty and are mainly related to accidents with fires in the home environment. Aims: The aims of the thesis were to record the risk factors, causes, magnitude and outcome of burn treatment as well as establish circums

The sun and its heat are two of the most universal symbols known to humanity, yet their supposed meanings vary greatly. The sun can be thought of as a giver of life, but its hot and scorching rays can also be associated with drought and the powers of destruction. The present study concerns the latter view of the sun and related ideas as reflected in the Hebrew Bible and the cuneiform alphabetic te

In Sweden, at least one school fire occurs every day. In most cases, arson is the cause of that fire. The costs for these arson fires are considerable, especially those occurring after school hours. This paper presents data for typical arson fire scenarios in schools and kindergartens in Sweden. This data will later be used to evaluate, with regard to cost and benefit, different active and passive

Nanoethics is one of many new fields that has surfaced as a consequence of the intense ongoing debate on new technology. The term attempts to cover a great span, from free floating nano particles in general to more specific areas such as nano medicine. An important question is in which areas nano ethics can justify its own existence, i. e. to what extent will the application of nano technology giv
