  1. 16. Borderline psychopathology and the defense mechanism test

    Author : Elisabet Sundbom; Bengt-Åke Armelius; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Defense Mechanism Test; defense mechanisms; percept-genetics; Structural Interview; Borderline Personality Organization; Borderline Personality Disorder; Principal Component Analysis; PLS-discriminant analysis;

    Abstract : The main purpose of the present studies has been to develop the Defense Mechanism Test (DM1) for clinical assessment of severe psychopathology with the focus on the concept of Borderline Personality Organization (BPO) according to Kemberg. By relating the DMT and the Structural Interview to each other, the concurrent validity of the concept of Personality Organization (PO) for psychiatric inpatients has been investigated. READ MORE

  2. 17. Homogeneous Ignition - Chemical Kinetic Studies for IC-Engine Applications

    Author : Per Amnéus; Förbränningsfysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Skeletal mechanism; Mechanism reduction; n-heptane; iso-octane; formaldehyde; methane; Motors and propulsion systems; Motorer; framdrivningssystem; Physics; Fysik; Detailed chemistry; Kinetic calculations; Engine knock; Homogeneous charge compression ignition; HCCI; Fysicumarkivet A:2002:Amnéus;

    Abstract : Calculations on a Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition (HCCI) engine have been performed. Zero-dimensional models were used. The simplest model compressed the gas to auto-ignition, using temperature and pressure at a certain crank angle position obtained from engine experiments. READ MORE

  3. 18. Effects of loading mechanisms and texture on ore breakage – A multidimensional study

    Author : Parisa Semsari Parapari; Magnus Evertsson; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Breakage mechanism; Loading mechanism; Ore texture; Liberation; Comminution; Mineralteknik; Mineral Processing;

    Abstract :  In comminution machines, the product properties (particle size distribution, mineral liberation characteristics) and process consumables (energy for size reduction, wear) are affected by various parameters. On the one hand, understanding and optimizing these parameters can provide an energy efficient process and a specified product. READ MORE

  4. 19. Quantum Chemical Studies of Enzymatic Reaction Mechanisms

    Author : Bianca Manta; Fahmi Himo; Lubomir Rulisek; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; density functional theory; B3LYP; enzyme; cluster approach; mechanism; zinc; manganese; cytosine deaminase; ω-transaminase; dinitrogenase reductase-activating glycohydrolase; dual substrate recognition; organisk kemi; Organic Chemistry;

    Abstract : Computer modeling of enzymes is a valuable complement to experiments. Quantum chemical studies of enzymatic reactions can provide a detailed description of the reaction mechanism and elucidate the roles of various residues in the active site. READ MORE

  5. 20. Structure-Reactivity Correlations for Reactions of Palladium(II) and Platinum(IV) Complexes

    Author : Tiesheng Shi; Kemiska institutionen; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; thiol; l-methionine; maleic acid; carboxylic acid; thioether; platinum IV ; palladium II ; linear free energy relationship; volumes of activation; structure-reactivity correlation; reduction; substitution; equilibria; kinetics; mechanism; glutathione; Animal physiology; Djurfysiologi;

    Abstract : The kinetics and mechanism for substitution reactions on tetraaquapalladium(II) by an extended series of thioethers, a great number of carboxylic acids, and olefins have been studied by use of UV-VIS, stopped-flow, and high-pressure stopped-flow spectrophotometry and NMR spectroscopy. Second-order rate constants k and activation parameters (activation enthalpies, entropies, and volumes) for formation of monodentate 1:1 complexes have been determined. READ MORE
