Since the discovery of the accelerated expansion of the universe, it was necessary to introduce a new component of matter distribution called dark energy. The standard cosmological model considers isotropy of the pressure and assumes an equation of state p = ωρ, relating the pressure p and the energy density ρ. The interval of the parameter ω defines the kind of matter of the universe, related ...

Developing successful knowledge management (KM) processes is extremely difficult. In general, a large number of all KM projects end unsuccessfully. The aim of this paper is to summarize and study the attempts to take advantage of Lessons Learned in the Swedish Armed Forces (SwAF), focusing on international missions.

For Le Corbusier, Victorian cities were chaotic and da...

We use both a string and a field theoretical approach in order to determine respectively the Kähler metrics of untwisted and twisted open strings attached to magnetized D9 branes in toroidal compactifications. Work partially supported by the European Community’s Human Potential Programme under contract MRTN-CT-2004-005104 “Constituents, Fundamental Forces and Symmetries of the Universe”.

General morphological analysis (GMA) is a method for structuring and analyzing the total set of relationships contained in multi-dimensional, non-quantifiable problem complexes, and for synthesizing solution spaces. During the past 15 years, GMA has been extended, computerized and applied by the Swedish Defence Research Agency (FOI) for scenario development, long-term strategy management and or...
