The essay collects and analyses sources on the Russian Orthodox monasteries of the Swedish province of Ingria (Ingermanland). These houses have rarely been treated; their very existence is largely unknown among specialists, although they are the only Orthodox religious houses to have existed in Scandinavia before the mid-20th century, apart from those of post-1809 Finland. On the basis of printe

We investigated protocerebral processing of behaviorally relevant signals in the turnip moth, Agrotis segetum. Single neurons were studied both physiologically and morphologically using intracellular recording techniques. In moth pheromone communication systems, the presence of the complete, female-produced pheromone blend is necessary for male attraction. We predicted that more protocerebral neur

An economic process for the enzymatic hydrolysis of cellulose would allow utilization of cellulosic biomass for the production of easily fermentable low-cost sugars. New and more efficient fermentation processes are emerging to convert this biologic currency to a variety of commodity products with a special emphasis on fuel ethanol production. Since the cost of cellulase production currently accou

Male moth pheromone-detecting receptor neurons are known to be highly specific and very sensitive. We investigated physiological and behavioral responses to female sex pheromone components in male Ostrinia furnacalis moths (Lepidoptera: Crambidae). Using recordings from a cut-sensillum technique, trichoid sensilla could be grouped into four physiological types (1-4), according to the response of r

Inom samhällsbyggnadsprocessen blir 3D-visualisering och -analys allt viktigare för stadsbyggnation. 3D-visualisering med digitala tekniker ersätter allt oftare 2D-kartor för visualisering av markanvändningen. 3D-visualisering för samhällsplanering behöver använda 3D-modeller av städer och städernas ingående byggnader. Arkitekter skapar redan detaljerade 3D-modeller, men dessa byggnadsinformationsWithin the process of city planning both 3D visualization and analysis are becoming more important for city building. 3D visualisation with the aid of digital techniques is replacing 2D maps on a growing scale for visualization of the land use. 3D visualization for city planning needs 3D models of cities and their buildings. Architects already create detailed 3D models, but these building informat

This essay is a qualitative study concerned with questions about disability. I set out from a definition of disability which highlights non-disabled peoples´ participation in making a disabled person ?the Other?. My aim is to contribute to an understanding of the experiences of disabled people as well as problemize the way that normality and disability is socially constructed. The empirical materi

The cotton industry is facing new competition due to changing comparative advantages on the world market. Egypt is one of the countries in which we have seen a reform in order to make the cotton sector more efficient and competitive. To be able to reach that goal, it is of great importance that the liberalization involves a good balance between competition and coordination. The purpose of this the

The HCCI engine has shown great qualities such as high efficiency combined with low emissions. However, many issues have not totally been solved yet. One way to control the combustion timing, one of the commented issues, is dual fuel utilizing the difference in ignition temperature between different fuels. So, from this point on it is not difficult to think about developing a big mapping of one H

For the dosimetry of interstitial photodynamic therapy (IPDT), the fibre positioning and the distributed light fluence that activates the treatment are essential. With sufficient supply of oxygen and photosensitiser, the treatment effect depends entirely on the distributed light. By proper dosimetry, the illumination is limited to the tumour and adjacent sensitive tissues are spared. The fibre po

As a mean of tackling the harsher business environment of today has use of various enterprise resource planning systems (ERPS) increased. It, thus, felt self-evident to focus on what implementation of such new technology would mean and involve both for a whole organization as well as its employees. The construction industry has a long history of and is characterized with project-based work and yet

The aim of the study is to develop a framework for symbolic simplification algorithms in the JModelica.org compiler. It should make the procedure of adding new algorithms to the compiler easier. Instead of the fixed order currently used in the compiler, algorithms will perform their simplifications to the model equations iteratively. This opens up the possibility for more simplifications being mad

This thesis aimed to develop and create a tool for 3D-artists at Sony Mobile Communications to improve and simplify the work when rendering new materials for their new products. The tool consists of a new product that would capture images for a panorama, where the images would contain a lot of light information, resulting in high dynamic range (HDR) files. This would be done by using the camera of

In 2013, the EU established a Common European Asylum System in order to harmonize the asylum laws throughout Europe. One of the directives in this common system is a revised version of the Reception Conditions Directive from 2003, establishing rules for housing, clothing and food for the asylum applicants. The directive from 2003 should be in place in all Member States of the EU and on the 21st of

Our interest for this subject was awakened by the complexity with teachers having to report their students for being physically or psychically abused or neglected at home. Our aim in this study has been to discover junior school teachers’ idea on the mandatory reporting law between schools and social services in Sweden. Due to this purpose, interviews have been made with six junior school teachers

There is an increasing shift of hope from international negotiations to local actors for promoting sustainability by ‘thinking globally while acting locally’. Municipalities are such carriers of hope, taking on increasing responsibility as implementers of sustainability. The problem is that sustainability is a social construction site, and implementing it means ‘making it up as you go’. With this

I juni förra året föreslog Kommissionen att tillämpningen av Koncentrationsförordningen skulle utvidgas till att omfatta icke-kontrollerande minoritetsförvärv. Syftet med den här uppsatsen är att bedöma huruvida den föreslagna reformen är motiverad från ett rättsligt perspektiv. Det finns belägg för att icke-kontrollerande minoritetsförvärv kan ha väsentliga negativa effekter för konkurrensen. SåIn June 2013, the Commission proposed that the scope of merger control in the EU should be extended to include non-controlling minority shareholding acquisitions. The purpose of this thesis is to assess whether the proposed legal reform is motivated from a legal perspective. There is proof that non-controlling minority shareholdings may have significant anti-competitive effects. Indeed, such acqu

Bakgrund: Under de senaste åren har Axis Communications vuxit fram som världsledande gällande både försäljning och produktutveckling på marknaden för digitala övervakningskameror. Hög innovationstakt och ökande volymer gör det till en utmaning att bibehålla Axis kärnvärde om hög kvalité.

Användaridentifiering av Pekskärmsindata med RGB-D-kameror Pekskärmar blir en allt större del av vår tekniska vardag. Idag finns teknik för att göra pekskärmar större, mindre och med nya former jämfört med bara några år sedan. I ett sådant läge blir det naturligt att försöka eliminera alla svagheter hos tekniken. En sådan svaghet hos pekskärmar är att de inte kan skilja på olika simultana användaAn attempt was made to identify the users of a 78" curved touch screen based on images from three cameras placed around it. By assuming the existence of a robust facial detection algorithm, the work is limited to connecting each touch point to the most likely face. The cameras provide both color and depth information, allowing 3D logic to "see" that a touch point is connected to one
