Industrialization and inequality revisited: Mortality differentials and vulnerability to economic stress in Stockholm, 1878-1926.

This work combines economic and demographic data to examine inequality of living standards in Stockholm at the turn of the twentieth century. Using a longitudinal population register with occupational information, we utilize event-history models to show that despite absolute decreases in mortality, relative differences between socioeconomic groups remained virtually constant. The results also show

Laughing as participation: A textual analysis of the studio audience of The Daily Show with Jon Stewart

This small scale study or pilot case looks into how studio audiences participate; as well as how we can characterize the interaction between host and studio audience in political comedy. The case used is "The Daily Show with Jon Stewart" (US), as it is widely popular but also has a following in Europe and Sweden. According to Corner et al (2013), political comedy includes satire, mocking, spoofing

Recoil Polarization for Delta Excitation in Pion Electroproduction

We measured angular distributions of recoil-polarization response functions for neutral pion electroproduction for W=1.23 GeV at Q2=1.0 (GeV/c)2, obtaining 14 separated response functions plus 2 Rosenbluth combinations; of these, 12 have been observed for the first time. Dynamical models do not describe quantities governed by imaginary parts of interference products well, indicating the need for a

Characterizing the mechanical properties of skin-core structure in polymer molding process by nanoindentation

Quality of the polymer product produced by injection molding process are strongly affected by the mechanical properties of the skin-core structure formed during injection molding operation. It is desirable to know the mechanisms of the skin-core structure and the influence from process parameters and material properties to the skin-core formation in the injection molding. This paper focuses on cha

Optimal Electromagnetic Measurements

We consider the problem of obtaining information about an inaccessible halfspace from electromagnetic measurements made in the accessible half-space. If the measurements are of limited precision, some scatterers will be undetectable because their scattered fields are below the precision of the measuring instrument. How can we make optimal measurements? In other words, what incident fields should we

Modeling of material behavior in metal forming

Popular Abstract in Swedish Datorbaserade beräknings- och simuleringsmodeller har under de senaste två decennierna kommit att utgöra ett viktigt verktyg i industriella produktutvecklingsprocesser. Med sådana modeller och metoder kan utvecklingstiden kortas och kostnaderna minskas, till exempel genom att färre prototyper behöver framställas och genom att mängden kostsam provning kan reduceras. Bra With an increasing demand to improve efficiency and to cut costs, the industry is constantly seeking to reduce the time and money spent in product development and manufacturing. Use of computer-based simulations has become more or less a standard tool to meet this demand. Cost reduction is in this way made possible by for example shortened product development cycles, less need for expensive protot
