The required moment of inertia for steel plate girders is commonly provided by using relatively slender webs to achieve high strength-to-weight ratio. A large part of the shear capacity of such plate girders depends on the post-buckling reserve strength of the web panels due to the diagonal tension field mechanism. The effectiveness of the tension field significantly depends on geometrical and mec

Capsazepine is known as a transient receptor potential channel vanilloid subfamily 1 (TRPV1) antagonist that inhibits bronchoconstriction evoked in animals by TRPV1 agonists. In this study, effects of capsazepine and chemically related analogues, so called capsazepinoids, were examined in vitro on contractile effects in human small airway preparations. Repeated cycles with 1 h of LTD4-free physiol

Robotised welding is one of the most important robot tasks used in manufacturing industry. The operator usually performs the programming of the robot manually, i.e. by jogging the robot arm to each coordinate pose in space. Programming can, however, be made more accurate by the use of simulation, using so called Computer Aided Robotics. Simulation can also be a powerful tool to evaluate and contro

Abstract in Undetermined EU-kommissionen Vitbok om skadestånd vid brott mot EG:s antitrustregler förstärker rätten till skadestånd vid konkurrensrättsliga överträdelser. Privat skadeståndstalan ska komplettera offentlig-rättsliga sanktioner och leda till en effektivare konkurrensrättslig övervakning. Motsvarande svenska regler har varit ikraft sedan 1993 utan att ha satt stora spår i praxis. Arti

Exposure to vibrations from tools and machines used in construction work can induce damages to the human body. One of the most frequent symptoms is the hand-arm vibration syndrome commonly known as white fingers. The proportions of the international workforce exposed to vibrations are high and dominating sectors are construction, agriculture, forestry, and transport. Particularly exposed construct

Standard H∞-control can be applied to disturbaace attenuation design, but it has then fundamental practical limitations.

Läxhjälp bör bygga på att det är kvalificerad personal som svarar för verksamheten. I debatten om rut-avdrag har två viktiga frågor inte ställts: 1. Varför har svenska skolan hamnat i en situation av sviktande måluppfyllelse? 2. Varför ska de som behöver extra stöd, oberoende av vilken nivå de ligger på studiemässigt, inte få den mest kvalificerade hjälpen, det vill säga utbildade lärare?
