Granular sands are characterized and modeled here by explicitly exploiting the discrete-continuum duality of granular matter. Grain-scale kinematics, obtained by shearing a sample under triaxial compression, are coupled with a recently proposed multiscale computational framework to model the behavior of the material without resorting to phenomenological evolution (hardening) laws. By doing this, c

Supplemental Instruction (SI) is today a well-known academic assistance program that provides help for students in "difficult" courses. SI has repeatedly been shown to decrease the percentage of failures in the course as well as increasing course grades for students who attended SI sessions. Although SI is open for all students, its main objective is to come to terms with students' high failure ra

Recent research has brought into focus the function of switching between verb forms and types of clauses, here labelled ‘gram switching’, as a device for marking non-main clause linking in various types of Arabic and in Biblical Hebrew (Persson forthcoming a; Isaksson, Kammensjö, and Persson 2009; Isaksson 2011, 2013). The study presented here shows that a switch, either in verb form/morphology or

I will propose some ideas about such pictures claiming to be self-demonstrating or selfillustrating, mostly using some classical anatomy illustrations. Based on these you may say that the anatomy seems to create a remarkable, realistic pictorial code, which casts together in one single, selfdemonstrating shape, an object of knowledge with the properties of the natural object itself. This is the pa

We describe a patient in whom the motor branch to the first dorsal interosseous muscle was injured by the pins of an fixator used to treat an unstable fracture of the distal radius. She was successfully treated by extensor indicis proprius transfer to the base of the proximal phalanx of the index finger.

Canonical bases, also called SAGBI bases, for subalgebras of the non-commutative polynomial ring are investigated. The process of subalgebra reduction is defined. Methods, including generalizations of the standard Gröbner bases techniques, are developed for the test whether bases are canonical, and for the completion procedure of constructing canonical bases. The special case of homogeneous subalg

Popular Abstract in Swedish I denna doktorsavhandling i sociologi fokuseras konsthantverkares möjligheter att utöva sina yrken som fria företagare i vårt samtida senmoderna samhälle. Genus lyfts fram som en stark påverkansfaktor för spelet på den arena för konsthantverksproduktion som beskrivs och analyseras här. Utgångspunkt för teoridiskussionen är Bourdeius teori om kulturproducerande fält med This dissertation focuses on the possibilities for artist craftsmen or handicrafters to operate their independent small enterprises under the conditions of late-modern society. It describes and analyses the game in the arena of handicraft production. The powerful influence of gender constructions on this game is considered. The theoretical discussion starts with Bourdieus´ theory about fields of c
