Sufficient access to financial resources is important in sustaining a business especially in the early phases. First years in business development are very critical since owners learn by doing mistakes in order to get a proof of concept of the business idea. Being aware of this fact, external financial institutions try to avoid taking part in highly risky endeavours. Although there are financial o
The work presented in this thesis deals with investigation of methods to evaluate simultaneous moment and normal force capacity for symmetrical and unsymmetrical thin walled aluminium beams. The beams are supplied by Sapa Building System AB and is used in their glass facade system SFB 4150. The system is constructed in a way that makes it possible to make large glass facades. It is then of interes
Den svenska rättegångsbalken bygger på den kontradiktoriska principen. Balken innehåller en rad regler som ger en misstänkt brottsförövare rättigheter inom straffprocessen, exempelvis är rätten till insyn och påverkan av central betydelse. Att få insyn i förundersökningen innebär en rätt att få tillgång till material som rör brottsutredningen. Möjligheten till påverkan i processen innefattar blandThe Swedish Code of Judicial Procedure is based on the adversarial principle. The Code contains a number of rules concerning the suspect’s rights in the criminal process, such as the right to insight and influence in the criminal investigation. Gaining insight into the investigation involves a right of access to the information of the investigation. The right to influence the process includes a ri
The purpose of the article is to shed light on how experiences of sensory perceptions in the domains of VISION, SMELL, TASTE and TOUCH are recast into text and discourse in the genre of wine reviews. Because of the alleged paucity of sensory vocabularies, in particular in the olfactory domain, it is of particular interest to investigate what resources language has to offer in order to describe tho
A variety of excess material is produced in the processes used in the scrap-metal based steel industry. The largest stream of material, by volume, is steel slag. Since slag material has very different properties and wide differences in its chemical composition its usage can be found in different sectors. The increased understanding of slag and its properties has made companies less prone to divert
Ecosystem services (ES) is an up-and-coming concept which refers to benefits humanity gets from functions provided by natural systems. Investigating how cities have embraced the ES concept within their urban planning is important in order to be able to assess the awareness of human dependence of nature’s functions and the potential of the ES concept to increase this awareness. In this study, plann
The current Lambda Cold Dark Matter cosmology predicts galaxy growth by hierarchical merging, leading to galaxy substructure like tidal streams and dark matter subhalos devoid of stars. The goal of this thesis is to investigate whether tidal stream-subhalo interactions can leave observable gaps in the streams, and at which rate this might happen in a galaxy like the Milky Way. The stream-subhalo i
Dagens konkurrensrättsregler finns på både nationell och europeisk nivå, och syftar till att främja en effektiv konkurrens. För att det ska vara möjligt att upprätthålla, har bestämmelser utarbetats för att bland annat kontrollera bildandet av karteller, som enligt huvudregeln i 2 kap. 1 § konkurrenslagen är förbjudna. Om ett företag trots förbudet skulle ingå ett otillåtet, konkurrensbegränsande The competition rules of today exist on both a national and European level, and aim to promote effective competition. In order to maintain that, rules have been set out to control the formation of cartels, which are prohibited according to the main rule in 2 chapter 1 § in the Swedish competitin act.

Most of the natural resources we rely on for our existence on this planet could in one way or another be a subject to overexploitation through tragedy of the commons. Tragedy of the commons occurs when rational individuals all acting in their own self-interest creates a situation that is suboptimal for everyone involved (Hardin, 1968). For long privatization or government control over a common wer
Infiltration är en av polisens spaningsmetoder och inträffar när en polis eller en civil, på uppdrag av polisen, tar sig in i en kriminell verksamhet i syfte att skaffa information om eller avslöja brott. Lagregleringen och kontrollfunktioner av infiltration är bristfällig och infiltration kan därför skapa risker för rättssäkerheten i en rättsstat. Centralt för bedömningen är Peczeniks definition Infiltration is a police surveillance method which occurs when a police officer or a civilian, on behalf of the police, gets in contact with a criminal group in order to obtain information about or reveal crimes. The text of law and functions of control of infitration are deficient and infiltration can create risks for the rule of law in a state governed by law. Central to the assessment is Peczen

Talented employees are important for companies, and graduate programs are designed to internal educate talented students to make them a strong resource for the company. A problem is that trainees tend to leave the company after the program.

Cancer, a group of diseases with abnormal cell growth, is today very common in our society. There are different forms of cancer, which all display different symptoms, but still have mutual characteristics. One such is the way cancer cells create energy which, like healthy cells, starts with glycolysis of glucose to pyruvate. In healthy cells, with sufficient oxygen supply, the enzyme pyruvate dehy
With less than 15 000 inhabitants, Åstorp is a small municipality in the north west of Skåne. In the county there are two train stations and twenty-three bus stops. Despite the good opportunities for public transport, the municipality has high emissions of greenhouse gases from passenger transports if compared with other municipalities in Skåne. By means of a focus group, this paper employs a qual
The aim of this study is to describe how the establishment of large farms (plattgårdar) in the county of Scania changed the landscape in the areas of the former villages, hamlets and small holdings. It is also important to find out if the establishment of the large farms was depending on the enclosure-reforms during the 19th century. Another aim of this study is to describe how the system with lar
Desalination can be a cost-effective way to produce fresh water and possibly electricity. The Gaza Strip has had a complex hydro-political situation for many years. Gaza (enclosed area) is bordered by the Mediterranean in the west, by Israel in the north and east and by Egypt in the south. Water and electricity consumption in the Gaza Strip is expected to increase in the future due to the increasi

We focus on discretionary policy decisions by estimating policy shocks using a SVAR model. Through these shocks, we explore how stabilization policies have evolved over time and how policymakers responded to key economic events such as financial crises and wars.
