A new material model, for the FE-program Adina, has been verified against twoexperiments. One unreinforced concrete beam and one reinforced concrete beam.The model, DF-concrete, has the possibility to estimate true concrete. However theresults indicate that in order to be sure that the estimations are true, there ought tobe data from the true concrete to verify against.Two FE-models have simulated the behavior of a ring-shaped part of the nuclearcontainment vessel. The results from the first, frictionless, model agree with similarsimulations and hand calculations for high pressures in the containment vessel. Thesimulations of the nuclear containment vessel show cracking in the concrete after10-11 bars of over pressurization.

Smallholder farmers in low-income countries face a number of challenges in animal production. Animal husbandry carries great potential in reducing poverty, hunger and gender inequality, but at the same time infectious diseases are prominent threats to farmers? livelihoods and their animals. The objective of this study was to investigate the socioeconomic impact of infectious animal diseases on smallholder farmers in low-income countries, using African swine fever (ASF) in Uganda as an example. The study was conducted in two parts. The first part of the study was questionnaire-based and performed in Gulu district, northern Uganda.

Adina Schneltzer: Valkyrieritten som filmmusik. Wagners musik i fyra filmer. Uppsala: Musikvetenskap, 1998. C-uppsats (60 p).Uppsatsens syfte är att undersöka vilka funktioner Richard Wagners musik kan ha som filmmusik. En begränsning har skett till fyra filmer, där Wagners musik har använts inom diegesen, dvs handlingen, och i originalsättning eller orkesterversion.
