Popular Abstract in Swedish Del I - "The Shift Operator on Spaces of Vector-valued Analytic Functions" består av tre artiklar som alla handlar om en viss sorts operatorer i Cowen-Douglas klassen med spektrum på enhetsskivan D, eller om man så vill, om operatorn Mz (multiplikation med z) på Hilbert rum H av vektorvärda analytiska funktioner på D. Den första artikeln, "On the Cowen-Douglas class forThis thesis consists of six articles on three different subjects in the area of complex analysis, operator theory and harmonic analysis. Part I - "The Shift Operator on Spaces of Vector-valued Analytic Functions" consists of three closely connected articles that investigate certain operators in the Cowen-Douglas class with spectrum D - the unit disc, or equivalently, the shift operator M_z

A 2D numerical study of the damage accumulation at the root of a Powder Metallurgy (PM) manufactured gear wheel subjected to frequent overloads, i.e. low cycle fatigue loading, has been performed. The initial porosity distribution of the gear was obtained from a 3D simulation of double action compaction of the gear. The porosity distributions over the centre plane and at the surface were transferr

Objective: To obtain experiences and expert opinion on treatment of SSc patients with TNF-alpha antagonists. Methods: An investigation was carried out among the EUSTAR centres into their expertise on use of TNF-alpha antagonists. Assessment forms on the frequency of TNF-alpha inhibitor use were distributed to EULAR Scleroderma Trials and Research Group (EUSTAR) centres. Afterwards, a three round D

This paper describes new sample cells and techniques for in situ powder X-ray diffraction specifically designed for gas absorption studies up to ca 300 bar (1 bar = 100 000 Pa) gas pressure. The cells are for multipurpose use, in particular the study of solid-gas reactions in dosing or flow mode, but can also handle samples involved in solid-liquid-gas studies. The sample can be loaded into a sing

Neural cultures are very useful in neuroscience, providing simpler and better controlled systems than the in vivo situation. Neural tissue contains two main cell types, neurons and glia, and interactions between these are essential for appropriate neuronal development. In neural cultures, glial cells tend to overgrow neurons, limiting the access to neuronal interrogation. There is therefore a pres

There are many benefits offered by integrated enterprise computer systems. There are a growing number of options available to obtain such management information system support. A major problem when selecting Enterprise Information Systems, in special ERP systems, is how to deal with the great diversity of options as well as the number of criteria used to evaluate each alternative. There is an impl

Routing of elastic traffic in the Internet should be fair in terms of bandwidth allocated to individual traffic demands. One fairness principle that can be applied is called max-min fairness (MMF) and requires that the worst bandwidth allocation is maximized and the solution is then extended with maximization of the second worst allocation, the third one, and so on. In this paper we discuss soluti

Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingen behandlar robotteknik och de nya möjligheter som den kan ge människor med rörelsehinder. Jag fokuserar på teknikanvändaren och teknikanvändningen, speciellt på vad som gör robothjälpmedel värda att använda. Distinktion görs mellan användvärdhet och användbarhet. Erfarenheter från användning av den rullstolsmonterade robotarmen Manus visar att tekniska krav

In this article the authors reflect upon and critically examine signs of a contradiction in higher education which they discuss in terms of the tension between 'use value' and 'exchange value'. Use value here represents learning as something valuable ‘in itself’ whereas exchange value represents learning as an achievement of grades and credits to be ‘traded’ on a market. Their aim in this article

Both numerical simulations and experimental measurements of small scale spontaneous ignition with different biomass fuels have been performed. In the experiments, temperature history was monitored at five different locations inside the fuel bed. The measured temperature history was used for validation of comprehensive threedimensional computer simulations which were carried out using a parallel fi

In this study, we investigated the interaction of fengycin, a lipopeptide produced by Bacillus subtilis, with lipid monolayers using the Langmuir trough technique in combination with Brewster angle rnicroscopy. Thermodynamic analyses were performed to get further information about the mixing behavior and the molecular interactions between the two components. The effect of fengycin on the structura

Residual stress and distortion continue to be important issues in shipbuilding and are still subject to large amounts of research. This paper demonstrates how the type of welding process influences the amount of distortion. Many shipyards currently use submerged arc welding (SAW) as their welding process of choice. In this manuscript, the authors compare welds made by SAW with DC gas metal arc wel

High-spin terminating bands in heavy nuclei were first identified in nuclei around Er-158(90). While examples of terminating states have been identified in a number of erbium isotopes, almost nothing is known about the states lying beyond band termination. In the present work, the high-spin structure of Er-156,Er-157,Er-158 has been studied using the Gammasphere spectrometer. The subject of triaxi

In this paper, a fully automatic method for the diagnosis of pulmonary embolism (PE) from V/Q-scans is presented. Image analysis is applied to the ventilation and the perfusion images obtained in the V/Q-scan. The difference of the ventilation and the perfusion is calculated after transformation and hot-spot reduction of the images. From this difference image the integral of the underperfused area

Proton-induced X-ray emission, PIXE, is capable of simultaneous quantitative determination of 10-15 elements. An introduction to the physical properties of the method is given and detection limits are shown for a routine analysis of a thin aerosol sample. Examples of applications to both thick and thin samples are presented. Human tooth dentine is analysed for lead, with simple sample preparation,
