    Abstract : Stockholm County is a post-industrial Swedish region characterized by high levels of mobility and technologization as well as ethnic and religious diversity. Among its religious minorities exist various strands of charismatic Christianity, some of which originate from the Pentecostal revival of the early 20th century and some of which belong to more recent movements.

  4. 12. Factors influencing actors at the interface between the socio-technical and the ecological systems: The case of on-site sewage systems and eutrophication

    Author : Are Wallin; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; social dilemma; Eutrophication; regulatory compliance; goal-framing theory; on-site sewage systems; homeowners;

    Abstract : Eutrophication, caused by nutrient loading, is a global environmental problem, particularly severe for the Baltic Sea. Long-term solutions rely on the ability of society to respond effectively. This involves, for example, instigating actors who have the capability to directly influence nutrient loads to take action.

  5. 13. Playing the Enemy: Information, Deception, and Dictatorial Survival

    Author : Felix Dwinger; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Personalist rule; Competitive authoritarianism; Dictatorial survival; Information; Persuasion; Repression; Conspiracies; Public Dissent; Game theory;

    Abstract : What strategies do autocrats use to maintain power? Across three papers, I examine puzzling aspects of autocratic rule. These range from personalist dictators publicizing failed conspiracies to opposition involvement in and service provision informed through query sessions under competitive authoritarianism.

  6. 14. Concrete flat slabs and footings : Design method for punching and detailing for ductility

    Author : Carl Erik Broms; Håkan Sundquist; Mikael Hallgren; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Construction engineering; bent-down bars; building codes; cyclic loading; deflection; ductility; earthquake; Byggnadsteknik; Building engineering; Byggnadsteknik;

    Abstract : Simple but still realistic physical models suitable for structural design of flat concrete plates and column footings with respect to punching are presented. Punching of a flat plate is assumed to occur when the concrete compression strain at the column edge due to the bending moment in the slab reaches a critical value that is considerably lower than the generally accepted ultimate compression strain 0.

  7. 15. Thermal impact on rolling contact fatigue of railway wheels

    Author : Sara Caprioli; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []

    Abstract : Rolling contact fatigue (RCF) is a very common and costly damage mechanism for rails and wheels. This thesis investigates the influence of combined thermal and mechanical loading on RCF of railway wheels on the basis of numerical predictions. READ MORE
