Huvudsyftet är att belysa hur form och innehåll samverkar i gestaltningen av tid i Det er Ales och vad denna gestaltning får för konsekvenser för förstå
Abstract Metal oxide semiconductor (MOS) capacitor was fabricated on the InGaAs substrate with Al2O3/HfO2 gate oxide. InGaAs is one of the promising candidates for advanced applications which require the lower power supply and high frequency. The high-k films (Al2O3/HfO2) were formed by atomic layer deposition (ALD) as an alternative to silicon dioxide (SiO2) to proceed the scaling of oxide to low
In this thesis an algorithm for simulating the equilibrium behavior of a large number of protein sequences at fixed temperature in a single run is investigated. The method, which works by allowing Monte Carlo updates of the protein sequence, is implemented and tested for a simple reduced-representation continuous protein model with three different types of amino acids. The effectiveness of the m

Kinas emigration idag utgörs framför allt av förmögna kineser som investeringsemigrerar. Detta är ett emigrationsfenomen som är väldigt annorlunda i förhållande till de kineserna som emigrerade som arbetskraft förr. Den här uppsatsen studerar hur den kinesiska emigrationen utvecklades från arbetskraftsemigration, som påbörjades under mitten av 1800-talet, fram tills dagens investeringsemigration.
When constructing roads, it often happens that the contractor have trouble following the documentation intended for the project. When the contractor is unable to follow the documents and instead need new instructions, there is always changed, added or outgoing work. Sometimes this could mean that it is impossible to stay within the road area, for example, to accommodate the slopes, or more land ne
Lund Cathedral was built in Romanesque style when Lund became an archbishopric in the early 1100s. The roof structure of the church then had a flat wooden roof on the inside with room for tension rods so that the roof structure only affected the masonry walls with vertical loads. After a major fire in the 1200s, where the church was almost completely destroyed, cross vaults were built. This meant
Water damages have been an expensive problem for Swedish house owners for many decades and costs society billions of Swedish kronor every year. In an attempt to reduce the number of water damages, and the severe consequences there off, a project called VASKA was launched in Umeå in 1987. In the neighbourhood of Ersmark there were 24 houses built, all following the list of requirements set by VASKA
Bakgrund: Tidig extubation efter hjärtkirurgi förbättrar det postoperativa förloppet vilket leder till minskad morbiditet, mortalitet och vårdtid. Det innebär även kostnadseffektivitet och resurssparande. Syfte: Att jämföra patienter extuberade inom respektive efter fyra timmar avseende faktorer som kan påverka uppvaknandet efter CABG och/eller klaffkirurgi. Metod: En kvantitativ icke experimen
Denna studie ämnar undersöka en normgivares motiv till att införa ett nytt regelverk, användarnas incitament att efterleva regelverket enligt normgivarens avsikt och innebörden av en eventuell skillnad däremellan. Studiens syfte kräver en kombination av metoder beroende på vilket perspektiv av regelförändringen som undersöks. Normgivarens motiv undersöks både utifrån en kvantitativ och en kvalitat
