Rapporten presenterar resultat från ett forskningsprojekt ”Mäta resfria möten” (MRM), som bedrivs av Internationella miljöinstitutet (IIIEE) vid Lunds universitet i 2011-2014 med finansiering från Energimyndigheten och Trafikverket, och syftar till att utveckla ett ramverk, indikatorer och metoder för utvärdering, uppföljning och redovisning av resfria möten (RM), deras användning och effekter på

Vetenskapen likt andra verksamhetsområden existerar i växelspel med det omgivande samhället, i sitt historiska, sociala och psykologiska sammanhang. Något som även omfattar ekonomiska, politiska och kunskapsmässigt sammansatta grundvalar. På detta fundament vilar analysen i denna bok som förmedlar flera olika aspekter avseende vetenskapligt debatterande och vetenskapligt praktiserande. Boken ger i

Introduktion till filmteoretisk antologi.

We have previously documented the on-going work in the EUFORIA project to parallelise and optimise European fusion simulation codes, see. This involves working with a wide range of codes to try and address any performance and scaling issues that these codes have. However, as no two simulation codes are exactly the same, it is very hard to apply exactly the same approach to optimising a disparate r

A group of worldwide virtual reality and health-care researchers have decided to combine their efforts in a multidisciplinary project titled VETERAN – virtual environments in the diagnosis, prevention and intervention of age-related diseases. The main goal of the VETERAN project is the tuning and testing of different virtual environments, designed to address the cognitive/functional impairments th

Konflikten om Nagorno-Karabach, bergiga Karabach, som i våra dagar associeras med perioden för Sovjetunionens sönderfall vid slutet av 1980-talet, är egentligen betydligt äldre och kan spåras tillbaka till åren efter första världskriget. Den moderna konflikten startade 1988 då den lokala sovjeten i den autonoma enklaven Nagorno-Karabach den 20 februari 1988, med siffrorna 110 mot 17, röstade för e

A theoretical and experimental study of vibration isolation for a source on a lightweight floor structure is presented. The effectiveness of one-stage and two-stage isolator systems is studied. Approximate formulae are presented for both low and high frequency for the receiver, the floor structure. For the mobility, a comparison between approximate formulae, numerical exact results and experimenta

Popular Abstract in Swedish Olika sätt att mäta substrat (monosackarider) och produkter (främst etanol) vid tillverkning av biobränslet etanol har studerats. Etanoltillverkning sker i en fermentor med hjälp av mikroorganismer som kan omvandla socker. Det är av stort intresse att mäta koncentrationen av produkter och substrat under tillverkningsprocessens gång för att veta om den fortlöper som den Two different detection methods for on-line monitoring of substrates and products in ethanol fermentations have been studied. Amperometric biosensors were developed for use as detectors in flow injection or liquid chromatographic (LC) systems. Carbon paste was used as the electrode material and served as the supporting matrix to incorporate the enzymes alcohol oxidase or pyranose oxidase. Hydrogen

There are several solutions to keep the workers at good thermal state at hot or cold workplaces, for example, PCM (phase change materials) and ice; electrically heated clothing; increase/decrease clothing insulation, e.g. with smart textiles; water based cooling/heating; air based systems, ventilated clothes. Following methods can be used to increase the ventilation in the clothes: use of air perm

Slips and falls on icy roads often result in fractures or sprains and is a major problem in Nordic countries. Walking trials by 25 subjects wearing four types of winter shoes on five different icy walking surfaces provided subjective and objective measures of tendency to slip and number of slips, respectively. Since friction is a major determinant of a slip, the influence of material spread on icy

The use of enzymes in nonaqueous media has considerably expanded their potential areas of application. Limitations however arise that are inherent to the low conformational flexibility of enzymes in dry organic media. Enzyme activity is often unfavorably low due to kinetic barriers. Enzyme behavior, with respect to heat and long-term inactivation, may deviate from their behavior in aqueous media.
