Rasbiologiskt språkbruk i statens rättsprocess mot sameby : DN Debatt 2015-06-11
- 2015
-
Annan publikation (populärvet., debatt m.m.)abstract
- Statens hantering av forskningsresultat i rättsprocessen med Girjas sameby utgör ett hot mot Sverige som rättsstat och kunskapsnation. Åratal av svensk och internationell forskning underkänns och man använder ett språkbruk som skulle kunna vara hämtat från rasbiologins tid. Nu måste staten ta sitt ansvar och börja agera som en demokratisk rättsstat, skriver 59 forskare.

- Objective Congenital heart block may develop in the fetuses of Ro/SSA-positive and La/SSB-positive mothers. Recurrence rates of only 10-20% despite persisting maternal antibodies indicate that additional factors are critical for the establishment of heart block. The authors investigated the influence of other maternal and fetal factors on heart block development in a Swedish population-based cohort. less thanbrgreater than less thanbrgreater thanMethods The influence of fetal gender, maternal age, parity and time of birth on heart block development was analysed in 145 families, including Ro/La-positive (n=190) and Ro/La-negative (n=165) pregnancies. less thanbrgreater than less thanbrgreater thanResults There was a recurrence rate of 12.1% in Ro/La-positive women, and no recurrence in Ro/La-negative women. Fetal gender and parity did not influence the development of heart block in either group. Maternal age in Ro/La-positive pregnancies with a child affected by heart block was, however, significantly higher than in pregnancies resulting in babies without heart block (pandlt;0.05). Seasonal timing of pregnancy influenced the outcome. Gestational susceptibility weeks 18-24 occurring during January-March correlated with a higher proportion of children with heart block and lower vitamin D levels during the same period in a representative sample of Swedish women and a corresponding higher proportion of children with heart block born in the summer (pandlt;0.02). Maternal age or seasonal timing of pregnancy did not affect the outcome in Ro/La-negative pregnancies. less thanbrgreater than less thanbrgreater thanConclusion This study identifies maternal age and seasonal timing of pregnancy as novel risk factors for heart block development in children of Ro/La-positive women. These observations may be useful for counselling when pregnancy is considered.

Development of innovative small(micro)-scale biomass-based CHP technologies
- 2017
-
Rapport (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- To enhance the overall efficiency of the use of biomass in the energy sector in Europe, the large electricity production potential from small-scale biomass heating systems should be utilised. So far, no technologically sound (in terms of efficiency and reliability) and economically affordable micro- and small-scale biomass CHP technologies are, however, available. Therefore, the present ERA-NET project (MiniBioCHP) aimed at the further development and test of new CHP technologies based on small-scale biomass combustion in the electric capacity range between some W and 100 kW. Within the project, an international consortium consisting of 12 partners from 4 countries, including university institutions, institutes and industry (both engineering and manufacturing), collaborated closely to perform high level R&D on three promising micro/small-scale biomass based CHP technologies which are covering a broad range of applications in the residential heating sector. The Austrian engineering company BIOS, coordinated the international project. The project was based on earlier basic research and development work related to these promising new technologies and aimed at the achievement of a technological level which allows a first (commercial) demonstration after the end of the project. The three CHP concepts included in the MiniBioCHP project were;1. Pellet stoves with a thermoelectric generator (TEG)2. Small-scale biomass boilers (10-30 kWth) with a micro-ORC process3. High temperature heat exchanger (HT-HE) for an externally fired gas turbine (EFGT)The Swedish part of the project was focused on the development of the concept of biomass based EFGT with dedicated R&D activities related to the development of the HT-HE system. The Swedish project consisted of the research partners Umeå University (project leader), Luleå University of Technology, Chalmers University of Technology and RISE Research Institutes of Sweden, together with the industrial partners Enertech AB/Osby Parca and Ecergy. The expertise of the Swedish partners regarding ash related problems, grate boiler combustion and modelling, deposit formation and high temperature corrosion, were combined with the know-how of a Polish partner regarding HT-HE design, construction, testing and optimisation.The HT-HE is the most crucial component in EFGT processes significantly influencing the investment costs, availabilities as well as the efficiencies that can be achieved. With a thermal capacity from several hundred kW up to 2-3 MWth) the CHP technology based on a biomass boiler and an EFGT is suitable for district heating systems, or process heat consumers. The electricity produced by the gas turbine (up to some 100 kWel) can be used to cover the own electricity consumption of a company and/or fed into the grid. Even though the concept of biomass based EFGT has been an interesting alternative for small-scale CHP production for some decades, and R&D activities have been undertaken, tackling both economic and technical aspects, only a few pilot-plants have been in operation and no initiative has so far reached the level of commercial implementation. Thus, the concept of EFGT fed with biomass is still considered to be in a rather early development stage and the main technical challenges are related to alkali deposit induced corrosion and thermal stress of the HT-HE material, turbine design/operation and system integration.Within the present project, a HT-HE prototype aimed for an EFGT system was therefore designed, constructed and successfully tested at flue gas temperatures up to 900°C. Thus, appropriate guidelines for a compact design of the HT-HE and recommendations have been worked out to minimize thermal stresses as well as ash related problems regarding ash deposit formation and high temperature corrosion in a biomass boiler system. Furthermore, different concepts for the overall biomass based EFGT system have been worked out and evaluated. The outcome of the project will hopefully be used in the further development work and form the basis for a first testing and demonstration plant within the coming years.

Litteraturens mått : politiska implikationer av litteraturundervisning som demokrati- och värdegrundsarbete
- 2021
-
Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Avhandlingens syfte är att undersöka politiska implikationer av idén om litteraturundervisning som demokrati- och värdegrundsarbete i förhållande till det ideal om mätbar kunskap som präglar samtidens utbildningspolicydiskurser. Det som står i fokus är 2011 års gymnasiereform, som tolkas mot bakgrund av en genomgripande förändring av den globala och europeiska utbildningspolicydiskursen från och med millennieskiftet. Avhandlingen undersöker hur subjekt, samhälle och relationen däremellan förstås av aktörer inom policy, forskning och av lärare. Analysen är uppdelad i en transnationell nivå, en nationell nivå och en didaktisk nivå. Avhandlingen visar också hur policydiskurser rekontextualiseras mellan de olika nivåerna.Vad gäller den transnationella nivån visar avhandlingen hur EU:s utbildningspolicy lägger stor vikt vid utbildningens samhällsekonomiska funktion samtidigt som demokratiska aspekter av utbildning tonas ned. EU framhäver även värdet av entreprenörskap och kopplar kreativitetsfrämjande aspekter av konst och humaniora till arbetsmarknaden och ekonomisk tillväxt. I ramverket till OECD:s PISA-studier lyfts reading literacy fram som viktigt för såväl kritiskt tänkande som ekonomisk utveckling. Läsningen av skönlitteratur specifikt definieras dock som en individuell angelägenhet och fritidsaktivitet. Genom att anlägga ett psykologiskt perspektiv på skönlitteraturen och lyfta fram den som en individuell – snarare än samhällelig eller strukturell – angelägenhet sker en av avpolitisering av litteraturläsningens emancipatoriska värde.Vad gäller den nationella nivån visar avhandlingen hur skolans syn på demokrati och litteratur har genomgått förändringar sedan 1940-talet. Framför allt har demokratin gradvis kommit att förstås som ett ”fullbordat” projekt, snarare än som någonting som kan utvecklas eller fördjupas. Med hjälp av Gert Biestas tre dimensioner av medborgarfostran gör avhandlingen en kritisk genomgång av tongivande teorier om litteraturundervisning som demokrati- och värdegrundsarbete, och argumenterar för att merparten av teorierna fokuserar på medborgarfostran som socialisering snarare än subjektivering. Med andra ord innebär demokratiarbetet en anpassning till, snarare än en kritik av, det omgivande samhället. Avhandlingen använder sig också av Peter Dahler-Larsens begrepp konstitutiva effekter för att visa hur 2011 års gymnasiereform tonade ned demokratiska aspekter av litteraturundervisning i förhållande till den föregående läroplanen.Vad gäller den didaktiska nivån använder sig avhandlingen av kvalitativa lärarintervjuer som visar hur lärares didaktiska val ramas in av styrdokumenten och olika administrativa uppgifter. Avhandlingen argumenterar för att lärarnas tolkning av styrdokumenten innebär ett rekontextualiseringsfält inom vilket lärarna förhandlar med läroplanens bestämmelser. I flera fall väljer lärarna att bortse från aspekter av styrdokumenten för att i stället grunda sina didaktiska val på den egna lärarerfarenheten. Det avslutande kapitlet argumenterar för att en viktig politisk implikation av idén om litteraturundervisning som demokrati- och värdegrundsarbete – i synnerhet när den kombineras med strävan efter mätbarhet – är att utbildningens subjektiveringsdimension marginaliseras. Avhandlingen argumenterar för att utbildning skulle kunna handla mindre om fastslagna värden och mätbara kompetenser, och mer om elevers behov av att lära sig hantera icke-vetande.

Potential Yield Increase with Reduced Saw Kerf Deviations when Curve Sawing
- 2017
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Curve sawing with circular saw blades introduces saw kerf deviations due to the combination of the flat sawblade and the curvature of the saw kerf in log or cant direction. Deviations for a double arbor resaw used for curve sawing, are that the saw kerf becomes wider at top and bottom and that the desired rectangular cross sections of the boards become distorted. The yield loss due to the saw kerf deviation in practice for a sawmill was of interest in this study. Earlier and very approximate guesses and simple estimates have been indicating that the loss of income for a sawmill in Sweden producing 200’ m3 of sawn timber may be about 2 MSEK/year (0.22 Meuro/year). In this study calculations were based on true log data and assumed sawing conditions for a sawmill. A true mixed input log assortment (78458 spruce and pine logs taken into the log yard of a sawmill in northern part of Sweden) was used as basis. Individual curvature of these logs was taken into consideration but the calculation was still approximate because not all facts about sawing patterns, log classes etc. for an actual sawmill were known. Instead one single sawing class was used for the calculation of saw kerf deviation. Results show that the direct yield loss given the assumed input data was 0.61 %-units. This corresponds roughly to the income loss 0.2 Meuro/year mentioned above. Besides from the yield increase there are other advantages gained if the saw kerf deviation can be reduced.
