  1. 1. God and the world : Pragmatic and epistemic arguments for panentheistic and pantheistic conceptions of the God–world relationship

    Author : Lina Langby; Mikael Stenmark; Karin Johannesson; Joanna Leidenhag; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; panentheism; pantheism; classical theism; process theism; conceptions of God; models of God; religious language; constructivism; Philosophy of Religion; Religionsfilosofi;

    Abstract : This study critically reconstructs, analyzes, and assesses reasons for embracing panentheism or pantheism instead of classical theism. It argues that, when analyzing the adequacy of a conception of God, pragmatic reasons related to harms or benefits are equally important as epistemic reasons that relate to truth and correspondence.

The first myth is commonly called “Enki and Ninḫursaĝa”, and the second “Enki and Ninmaḫ”. The theoretical point of departure is that myths have society as their referents, i.e. READ MORE

  4. 4. Mechanical Properties of Semi-Solid Al Castings : Role of Stirring

    Author : Qing Zhang; Anders E.W. Jarfors; Stefan Jonsson; Jens Bergström; Jönköping University; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Rheometal™ process; aluminium alloys; stirring; segregation; porosity; oxides; ductility; fatigue performance;

    Abstract : Semi-solid metal (SSM) casting has been widely used in automotive industries to reduce the weight. In RheoMetalTM process which is one of the variations of SSM, the slurry fabrication can be finished within 30 second and can the slurry making process can be integrated into a high pressure die casting (HPDC) route without significant adjustments, making the process a promising alternative for industrial application.

  5. 5. Mechanical properties of semi-solid Al castings : Role of stirring

    Author : Qing Zhang; Anders E.W. Jarfors; Stefan Jonsson; Tomas Liljenfors; Arne K. Dahle; Johan Ahlström; Jönköping University; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Rheometal™ process; aluminum alloys; stirring; segregation; porosity; oxides; ductility; fatigue performance; melt quality;

    Abstract : Aluminum castings have been widely used in the automotive industry to reduce the vehicle's weight. However, the existence of casting defects significantly limits its application. The most common and detrimental defects in aluminum castings are porosity and oxides. READ MORE
