    Sammanfattning : First principle electronic structure theory is used to describe the effect of crystal binding on radiation detectors, electron transport properties, and structural damage induced by intense irradiation. A large database containing general electronic structure results to which data mining algorithms can be applied in the search for new functional materials, a case study is presented for scintillator detector materials.

  3. 2. Lucky People Forecast : a systemic futures perspective on fashion and sustainability

    Författare :Mathilda Tham; Richard Kimbell; Kate Fletcher; Emma Dewberry; Kay Stables; University of London Goldsmiths; []
    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Lucky people; Fashion; Sustainability; Futures; Systems thinking; Change; Metadesign; Design; Design;

    Sammanfattning : The detrimental environmental effects associated with fashion production and consumption are increasingly recognised, and strategies in place. However, these are production-focused, top-down strategies, which do not reach where the impact is highest - the user phase, or where the scope for improvement is utmost - the design phase. LÄS MER

  4. 3. From Putsch to Purge. A Study of the German Episodes in Richard Hughes’s The Human Predicament and their Sources

    Författare :Ivo Holmqvist; Engelska; []
    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Weimar Republic; Documentary novel; English historical fiction; The Wooden Shepherdess; The Fox in the Attic; 1900-1976; Hughes; Richard; Rise of Nazism; Hitler portraits in literature; English language and literature; Engelska språk och litteratur ;

    Sammanfattning : The two last novels by Richard Hughes (1900-1976), the first in his planned The Human Predicament series, are partly set in Germany in the years between the First and the Second World War. Much of the action in The Fox in the Attic (1961) takes part in and around Munich, culminating in a fictional reconstruction of the so-called Hitler Putsch on November 8-9, 1923, the future dictator's aborted early bid for power.
