Gentic approaches to complex materials

It might be argued that it is fruitful to interpret the average structure observed experimentally in disordered materials as a time and spatial average of the different local environments which are energetically accessible at a given temperature. The diff erent local structural environments corre...

HAVBRUKS-Havbruk - en næring i vekst

Optimizing the nutritional value of non-marine protein sources in extruded fish feed.

Considerable increases in the food fish demand, a shortage of fishmeal and fish oil and the occurrence of contaminants in marine feed ingredients have forced the aquaculture industry and the research community to explore other ingredients for farmed fish. Increased use of protein-rich ingredient...
