  1. 1. Bibeln på mina egna villkor : En studie av medierade kontakter med bibeln med särskilt avseende på ungdomar och Internet

    Författare :Anders Sjöborg; Anders Bäckström; Alf Linderman; Jørgen Straarup; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Internet; religion; young people; youth; late modernity; mediated religion; the Bible; detraditionalization; individualization of religion; weakening of tradition; collective memory; plausibility structure; Sociology of religion; Religionssociologi;

    Sammanfattning : Does mediation via the Internet contribute to the use of the Bible as a cultural resource, and if so does this contribute to other ways of relating to the Bible as an authority? This is investigated in three steps. Firstly, quantitative survey data concerning Bible reading and other forms of contact with the Bible as well as attitudes to the Bible are scrutinized for variation over time and generational differences.

  2. 2. A Global Linear Optimization Framework for Adaptive Filtering and Image Registration

    Författare :Gustaf Johansson; Hans Knutsson; Mats Andersson; Klas Nordberg; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Global Linear Optimization; Linear Optimization; Regularization; Medical Image Registration; Structure Tensor;

    Sammanfattning : Digital medical atlases can contain anatomical information which is valuable for medical doctors in diagnosing and treating illnesses. The increased availability of such atlases has created an interest for computer algorithms which are capable of integrating such atlas information into patient specific dataprocessing. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Quantum Chemical Exploration of Nitriles in Prebiotic Chemistry and Astrobiology

    Författare :Hilda Sandström; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; metadynamics; astrochemistry; iminoacetonitrile; hydrogen cyanide; acrylonitrile; azotosome; Titan;

    Sammanfattning : The Universe hosts countless different chemical environments, such as planets, moons, comets and the interstellar medium. The diverse pressures, temperatures and chemical compositions of these environments make a wide variety of processes possible. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Crisis Decisionmaking : A Cognitive-Institutional Approach

    Författare :Eric K. Stern; Tom Bryder; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; statsvetenskap; Political Science;

    Sammanfattning : This dissertation, which is part of a research program on Crisis Management in the Baltic Sea Region (CM Baltic), probes the plausibility of integrating convergent elements of cognitive and neo-institutional theory to develop systematic research strategies suitable for use in dissecting, analyzing, and comparing historical cases of crisis decisionmaking. Particular emphasis is placed on the structure and dynamics of the small groups which figure prominently in crisis decisionmaking in a wide variety of cultures and institutional settings. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Stochastic model updating and model selection with application to structural dynamics

    Författare :Majid Khorsand Vakilzadeh; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Finite element model; Bayesian model selection; Bayesian model updating; stochastic simulation; Bootstrapping; Subspace system identification; Uncertainty quantification;

    Sammanfattning : Uncertainty induced by our incomplete state of knowledge about engineering systems and their surrounding environment give rise to challenging problems in the process of building predictive models for the system behavior. One such challenge is the model selection problem, which arises due to the existence of invariably multiple candidate models with different mathematical forms to represent the system behavior, and so there is a need to assess their plausibility based on experimental data.
