  4. 2. Too tired to talk? Sleep, fatigue, and social functioning

    Author : Benjamin C Holding; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Sleep has been shown to have many health promoting functions, and is vital for the maintenance of physiological, cognitive, and emotional well-being. Much of what we know about sleep derives from studies showing what happens when individuals do not obtain sufficient sleep. READ MORE

  5. 3. Modelling impact climate-related change on the thermal responses of lakes

    Author : Ana I. Ayala; Donald C. Pierson; Stéphane Goyette; Andreas Lorke; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Modelling; climate change; lakes; thermal structure; surface heat fluxes; extreme events;

    Abstract : In response to climate-related changes, lakes worldwide have experienced warmer surface water temperatures, shorter ice cover periods and changes in lake stratification. As these aspects of lake dynamics exert substantial control over nutrient availability, oxygenation and biogeochemical cycling, predicting changes in lake water temperature and stratification dynamics can improve our understanding of the consequences of warming on lake ecosystems.

  6. 4. Nonlinear modeling of reinforced dowel joints in timber structures : a combined experimental-numerical study

    Author : Michael Schweigler; Josef Eberhardsteiner; Thomas K. Bader; Thierry Descamps; Vienna University of Technology; []
    Keywords : LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Technology byts ev till Engineering ; Teknik; Byggteknik; Civil engineering; Forestry and Wood Technology; Skog och träteknik;

    Abstract : Steel dowels are indispensable elements for the design of joints in modern timber structures. Dowels are broadly used because of their flexibility in design and easy assembling on-site, as well as due to their advantageous mechanical behavior. READ MORE

  7. 5. Fighting flameless fires : Initiating and extinguishing self-sustainedsmoldering fires in wood pellets

    Author : Ragni Fjellgaard Mikalsen; Vidar Frette; Bjarne C. Hagen; Ulrich Krause; Anne Steen-Hansen; Ulrich Krause; Nieves Fernandez-Anez; RISE; []

    Abstract : Smoldering fires represent domestic, environmental and industrial hazards. This flameless form of combustion is more easily initiated than flaming, and is also more persistent and difficult to extinguish. The growing demand for non-fossil fuels has increased the use of solid biofuels such as biomass. READ MORE
