Det finns ett växande behov av miljömedvetet byggande. Halmbalshus är po-tentiellt ett led i denna utveckling. Materialet halm är närproducerat, klimat-neutralt samt energieffektivt i brukarfasen. Dock finns det risker med halm som byggnadsmaterial. Syftet med studien var att undersöka fuktproblematiken i halmbalskonstruktioner, vilket i förlängning innebär att undersöka förutsättningarna för möge
Abstract Engrailed1 (En1) is a developmental gene in the homeobox family, and it is well established as a key factor for programming and maintenance of dopaminergic neurons of the mesencephalon. Heterozygousity for the gene causes progressive degeneration of dopaminergic neurons of substantia nigra pars compacta and decreased striatal dopamine levels in most studied mouse strains, including Swiss
The unitary patent package (Regulation 1257/2012 creating a unitary patent protection (UPR) , Regulation 1260/2012 on language regime creating a unitary patent protection (UPRL) , and the Agreement on a Unified Patent Court (UPCA) ) will make it possible to apply for a single patent (European patent with unitary effect or EPUE) at the non-EU European Patent Office (EPO) in Munich. EPUE will cover
In this project, an optical technique called gas in scattering media absorption spectroscopy (GASMAS) has been employed to investigate optical properties in scattering media such as food packages and wood materials. The GASMAS technique has been combined with a technique called frequency domain photon migration (FDPM) and from the integrated system the gas absorption signal and total optical path
We take a look at the properties of scalar fields in anti--de--Sitter space in five dimensions. More specifically we define bulk--to--boundary and bulk--to--bulk propagators for a five--dimensional scalar field and use these to calculate four--point functions. Finally we take a look at two--point functions and three--point functions and numerically calculate masses, residues and decay constants fo
Jag har genomfört en studie med hjälp av kvalitativ textanalys för att utreda vad det innebär att bli frihetsberövad i Sverige idag, hur de två största partierna i Sverige anser att kriminalpolitiken bör bedrivas, samt vad häkten i dagsläget gör för att bryta intagnas isolering på häkten. Mitt resultat visar att de två största politiska partierna i Sverige idag inte har behandling och vård som hjä
The first aim of this study is to investigate what it takes for a nonprofit association (NPA) to become a legal entity, specifically regarding requirements addressing decision-making organs within the NPA’s organization. Secondly, since within the legal framework of associations there exist general principles of law, this study also explores which general principles of law are applicable to a gene
Objective: The purpose of the present thesis is to enrich the robustness of a statistical atrioventricular (AV) node model during atrial Fibrillation (AF). The model takes into account electrophysiological properties as the two pathways, their refractory periods and concealed conduction; these pathways are located between sinoatrial (SA) and AV node. It is highly desirable understanding of the AV
In tomorrow's vehicle industry vehicles will have the ability to communicate and cooperate with each other in order to avoid collisions and provide useful information to each other. However, for this cooperation to be possible all vehicles will have to be equipped with compatible wireless 802.11p modules that implement the ITS-G5 standard. During the implementation phase of the system there wi
Syfte: Studien ämnar undersöka ifall sambandet mellan nyckeltal och kreditbetyg kan påvisas vara starkare än vad tidigare forskning fastställt samt om sambandet skiljer sig före och efter finanskrisen 2007-2008. Studien ämnar även, i samma kontext, undersöka nyckeltalens olika inverkan på att få ett A eller högre i kreditbetyg samt om det finns en skillnad av denna inverkan före och efter den glob
The purpose of this thesis is to explore food safety risk perceptions of students at Peking University and to what extent they influence their food consumption behaviour. Apart from existing research about food safety and consumer behaviour, the study relied on findings from thirteen interviews and participant observation. Since much of food safety involves risks, Ulrich Beck’s risk society theory
Where the dust in a protoplanetary disk is as the disk evolves over time is essential to know for further studies of the planet formation process. A new star is created alongside a stellar nebula. The nebula contains rock, ice and gas which are not accreted to the star. Our nebula is constructed using the Minimum Mass Solar Nebula model and the column density is studied as the protoplanetary disk
This study politicises transportation planning by applying a socioenvironmental justice perspective on the case of Bypass Stockholm. The theoretical framework includes nature-society and time-space relationships, socioenvironmental justice, and urban transportation concepts. Qualitative interviews, text analyses, and quantitative mapping of geographical distributions of social data are performed i
Understanding how asset classes and systematic strategies behave and perform during different macroeconomic environments is essential for an efficient asset allocation process. The aim of this thesis is to find a method to systematize the current understanding of the relationship between asset performance and environments. We will present a way to define different macroeconomic environments, asses
