Fuelling development? A critical look at government-centred jatropha cultivation for biodiesel as promoted by the biofuel policy in Rajasthan, India
(Master thesis, 2010-01-31)This study examines government-centred jatropha cultivation for biodiesel as promoted by the biofuel policy of the desert state of Rajasthan, India. The drive to find alternative domestic sources of energy is intense in a ... -
Full breastfeeding protection against common enteric bacteria and viruses: Results from the MAL-ED cohort study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Background Breastfeeding is known to reduce the risk of enteropathogen infections, but protection from specific enteropathogens is not well characterized. Objective The aim was to estimate the association between full ... -
Full family of flattening solitary waves for the critical generalized KdV equation
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)For the critical generalized KdV equation ∂tu+∂x(∂2xu+u5)=0 on R, we construct a full family of flattening solitary wave solutions. Let Q be the unique even positive solution of Q′′+Q5=Q. For any ν∈(0,13), there exist ... -
Full Waveform Inversion and Multi-Diagonal Inversion for Monitoring of CO2 Storage at Sleipner
(Master thesis, 2023-06-01)Carbon capture and storage (CCS) can become necessary for mitigating climate change. However, storing CO2 in subsurface reservoirs requires thorough monitoring. The most accurate and widespread type of monitoring is seismic ... -
A full year of turbulence measurements from a drift campaign in the Arctic Ocean 2019-2020
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Ocean turbulent mixing is a key process in the global climate system, regulating ocean circulation and the uptake and redistribution of heat, carbon, nutrients, oxygen and other tracers. In polar oceans, turbulent heat ... -
Fully Automatic Whole-Volume Tumor Segmentation in Cervical Cancer
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022-05-11)Uterine cervical cancer (CC) is the most common gynecologic malignancy worldwide. Whole-volume radiomic profiling from pelvic MRI may yield prognostic markers for tailoring treatment in CC. However, radiomic profiling ... -
A fully coupled numerical model of thermo-hydro-mechanical processes and fracture contact mechanics in porous media
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Various phenomena in the subsurface are characterised by the interplay between deforming structures such as fractures and coupled thermal, hydraulic and mechanical processes. Simulation of subsurface dynamics can provide ... -
Fully dispersive water wave equations
(Doctoral thesis, 2020-02-21)The PhD project concerns the surface water wave theory. Liquid is presented as a three or two dimensional layer bounded from below by a rigid horizontal bottom. Above it can have either a free surface or an elastic layer ... -
Fully-implicit simulation of vertical-equilibrium models with hysteresis and capillary fringe
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-02)Geological carbon storage represents a new and substantial challenge for the subsurface geosciences. To increase understanding and make good engineering decisions, containment processes and large-scale storage operations ... -
Fun, influence and competence-a mixed methods study of prerequisites for high school students' participation in physical education
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-03-10)Background: Many adolescents do not reach the recommended levels of physical activity (PA), and students attending vocational studies are less committed to take part in physical education (PE) than other students. The ... -
Function and regulation of phenylalanine and tyrosine hydroxylases from human and Caenorhabditis elegans. With focus in evolutionary aspects and development of new therapies
(Doctoral thesis, 2010-06-11)The family of the aromatic amino acid hydroxylases (AAAH) is well studied in mammals. It includes four members, i.e. phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH), tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) and the tryptophan hydroxylases (TPH1 and 2). ... -
Function and regulation of Steroid Receptor Coactivator 2. Transcriptional regulation of cellular metabolism
(Doctoral thesis, 2015-12-18)Nuclear hormone receptors (NRs) associate with coregulators to enable complex programs of gene expression. The p160 steroid receptor coactivator 2 (SRC- 2/GRIP1) regulates metabolism and cellular processes in a tissue-specific ... -
A function of profilin in force generation during malaria parasite motility that is independent of actin binding
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)During transmission of malaria-causing parasites from mosquito to mammal, Plasmodium sporozoites migrate at high speed within the skin to access the bloodstream and infect the liver. This unusual gliding motility is based ... -
Functional activity level reported by an informant is an early predictor of Alzheimer’s disease
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Background Loss of autonomy in day-to-day functioning is one of the feared outcomes of Alzheimer’s disease (AD), and relatives may have been worried by subtle behavioral changes in ordinary life situations long before these ... -
