Caste,Community,and Traditions in Karnataka, India - A Kingdom of another World: Christianity, Toleration and theHistory of Western Political Thougt Ghent University
De Indische cultuur wordt nog steeds hoofdzakelijk beschreven aan de hand van een koloniale beeld van haar samenleving. Dit U+201Ccaste, cow, curryU+201D beeld van India is dringend aan verandering toe, zeker met betrekking tot het beeld van haar sociale structuur. Het grote probleem is dat de meer recentere studies ook niet aan de klassieke format lijken te kunnen ontsnappen. Onderzoekers toonden in het verleden reeds aan dat het koloniale ...

Development of magnetic domain wall based logic and memory concepts Ghent University
A ferromagnetic material consists of several uniformly magnetised regions, which are called magnetic domains and are separated by magnetic domain walls (DWs). The magnetisation inside these magnetic domains has a fixed orientation, which makes ferromagnetism attractive for data storage applications. Indeed, this orientation of the magnetisation can be used to store data and the stored data can be retained without the need for an ...
Properties, dynamics and sustainability indicators of semi-urban areas KU Leuven
In Flanders problems arise when trying to delineate rural and urban
zones using geographical and ecological standards. These problemsoccurs because large parts of the flemisch landscape consist of a
'hybrid' form of landuse, with rural as well as urban properties. This
area can be called the semi-urban area and in Flanders it does not only
show up at the urban fringes (but also along major transportation ...
Construction of an integral chain valuation tool for sustainable valorization multiple pathways of plant production Ghent University
The general objective of this dissertation is to generate key insights to address organisational challenges of local biomass value chains in the context of the biobased economy.
Several societal challenges, of which the most important is probably climate change, drive the increased interest to transform our fossil resources based economy into a biobased economy.
Research aiming to enhance this transformation often focuses on the ...
Automated Analysis of Histological Images Using Machine Learning and Image Processing Techniques KU Leuven
SUMMARY
Histology studies microscopic tissue appearance and properties.
Histology analysis is used to study disease at the cellular level. This analysis happens through microscopic examination of tissue sections,
thin slices of tissue that were obtained from biopsies, mounted on a microscope slide, and made visible using a specific dye. Digital imaging allows individual microscopic structures, ...

Research towards more animal friendly rabbit housing systems Research Institute for Agriculture, Fisheries and Food
The RABBITRY project focuses on the evaluation of an innovative group housing system for rabbit does. How can we develop a system for does and their young which is compatible with modern husbandry procedures, responds to animal welfare demands, and minimizes aggression? We perform an extensive empirical study to answer these questions.
Research approach
We compare productivity, welfare and health of ...
