China’s rapid urbanization process has included a large scale migration of rural labor migrants to the cities since the 1990s. The education problem of their children who migrate together with them also becomes increasingly prominent. In order to allow migrant children enjoy a fair education, China introduced the "two oriented" policy in 2001. This policy clarifies that the management re

This MSc thesis covers the development of a Modelica model of an engine liquid cooling system for the trucks manufactured by MAN Truck & Bus AG. The mathematical assumptions used for transcribing existing models are described and the reasoning behind the modeling process is provided. The separate component models are validated with two sets of input signals. Primarily with a dynamic, transien

Renal diseases are an increasing problem worldwide and when kidney transplantation is not possible, dialysis treatment is the solution. An increasing number of patients choose to perform their dialysis treatment at home by implementing the dialysis machine and a water purification system in current electric and water supply, so called home hemodialysis. The quality of the water used for the prepar

The competition in the power plant business is today extremely hard and all manufacturers’ technics to achieve as low heat rate in sold power plants are very refined. This in combination with high fees for companies that can’t achieve what’s agreed in the contracts has made the feedback process very important in order to keep the business successful. A fossil power plant has therefore been evaluat

The objective of this thesis is to conduct an illustrative case study examining how child labour and the decision to legalize child labour from age ten might impact Bolivia’s future economic growth and development. By doing so, this thesis yields insight into the issue of child labour and its impact on economic growth and development as well as the effectiveness of child labour laws and regulation

En oro över snabbt stigande bostadspriser har öppnat upp debatten om reduktion av ränteavdraget i förhoppning att dämpa utvecklingen av de stigande bostadspriserna. Denna studie undersöker kostnaden att äga bostad, de ingående parametrarnas vikt med fokus på ränteavdragets påverkan. Undersökningen låter småhus representera den svenska bostadsmarknaden. Metoden som används är imputed rent, en ekvat

As the era of self-driving cars approaches, there is extensive discussion in the media about the next generation of vehicles: the potential safety benefits offered by new, increasingly automated, advanced driver assistance technologies, as well as the public’s possible distrust and reluctance to use them. This thesis contributes to the discussion by offering a cultural analysis of car safety. The

In the previous decades, mm-Wave frequency bands have largely been ignored for cellular communication because of the high free space attenuation as well as the cost and complexity of mm-Wave RF circuits. However, with the improvement of RF and antenna technologies over the last decade, it has become feasible to con- sider mm-Wave bands for cellular communications. With the large bandwidths availab

As climate change have become generally accepted as a potential problem, reducing the greenhouse gas emissions and global energy demand has become an important research topic. This have led to an increased interest towards the retrofitting of the existing building stock, including cultural protected buildings. Due to the cultural protection, carrying out major alteration such as exterior wall retr

Ett behov av bostadsförtätning i städerna grundar sig i den ständigt ökande befolkningen, urbaniseringen och influensen av hållbar utveckling. Förtätningen är ett stadsplanerarverktyg som stödjer en hållbar stadsutveckling och ska möta efterfrågan efter centralt belägna bostäder. Syftet med examensarbetet är att undersöka möjligheter för de olika förtätningsstrategier som finns samt vilka som går

1 januari 1990 tillkom rekvisitet klart behov vid omprövning av gemensamhetsanläggning enligt 35§ AL. Lagändringen berodde på att det tidigare var allt för restriktivt att ompröva gemensamhetsanläggningar, det var svårt att uppfylla de två tidigare rekvisiten, ändrade förhållanden och föreskrift för omprövning. I lagtexten står det inte tydligt vad klart behov innebär. Syftet med detta arbete är aIn January 1990 the term clear need was introduced while reassessing a joint facility according to 35§ AL. The law changed due to restrictions in the two previous terms making them difficult to achieve, changed conditions and regulation of reassessing. Clear need is not defined in the law texts nor is it defined in the legislative history or the government bill. The purpose of this paper is to sh
