As a primary driver of climate change, energy systems are often affected by the type of “self-perpetuation and lock-in” that characterize so-called ‘wicked problems’. Although it has a relatively clean energy system, Canada still has provinces (e.g. Alberta, Saskatchewan) that possess carbon-intensive power grids, and provinces that have experienced minimal renewable energy development other tha

The consumption and production of livestock have a negative impact on the environment and climate. In many Western countries, the consumption is particularly high and it is expected to increase globally. This increase will lead to further pressure on already stressed planetary boundaries. Recently edible insects have been proposed to be an alternative to conventional meat, because they have a lowe

This essay focuses on the increasing problems for companies and right-holders with counterfeited and pirated goods in the European Union and the problems for right holders to enforce their IPR rights. Will IPRED1 make a difference and is there really a need for the new Directive of Enforcement 2004/48/EG, or do the sanctions according to the TRIPS Agreement suffice. Further, IPRED2 is a follow up

Examensarbetet syftar till att ge ett fo¨rslag till ett fo¨retag som vill uto¨ka sin verksamhet i en redan existerande byggnad. Byggnaden, som a¨r ett gammalt stall, a¨r bela¨gen i utkanten av Ba°rslo¨v. En liten del av stallet har redan renoverats om till ett par la¨genheter som kunden, Aplaga°rden B & B och vinga°rd, hyr ut i dagsla¨get. Ba°rslo¨vs omra°det har en va¨ldigt gammal historia oc

The Chua circuit, known to exhibit chaotic behaviour, has been constructed and studied. The goal was to investigate the experimental underpinning of the theory. The component relationship of the resistors, capacitors, inductors and operational amplifiers have been measured and established within their domain of validity. The system equations themselves cannot be directly validated through a tradit

Background: The rapid increase in type 2 diabetes worldwide has mainly been attributed to lifestyle factors, including poor eating habits and physical inactivity. Type and quality of diet is a key factor in both prevention and treatment of type 2 diabetes. Aim: To investigate the association between diet quality and risk of type 2 diabetes. Methods and Subjects: This prospective study in the M

Magnetkameran används vanligen för att generera anatomiska bilder som används vid diagnostik av olika sjukdomstillstånd. Normala anatomiska bilder avspeglar magnetresonanssignalens (MR-signalens) magnitud, vilket är signalvektorns längd. Denna är proportionell mot bl.a. antalet vätekärnor i varje volymselement. Ett annat sätt att använda MR-signalen är att skapa en bild av signalvektorns fasvinkelIntroduction: The main purpose of this study was to extract global values of oxygen extraction fraction (OEF) and cerebral metabolic rate of oxygen (CMRO2) in healthy volunteers, using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) phase maps. The repeatability of the method was evaluated, and the age dependences of OEF and CMRO2 were analyzed. Material and methods: Phase data were acquired using a 3T MRI scann

Energy efficiency and environmental questions have gained increased attention over the last decade. In combination with global warming and increasing cooling demands, the Swedish market for combined heating and cooling solutions such as ground source heat pumps expands. As it currently stands, the multi-family building market is highly dominated by district heating, while the market share of combi

Instansordningsprincipen fyller en viktig funktion bland myndigheter och förvaltningsrättsdomstolarna. Detta innebär att omständigheter och material, som inte funnits med i tidigare instanser, inte får prövas i en högre instans. Målet kan i sådana fall återförvisas eller prövas på nytt utifrån nya yrkanden och omständigheter. Huruvida detta bör ske bedöms från fall till fall samt om inte särskildaCourt hierarchy principle fulfills an important function among the administrative courts. Circumstances and materials can ́t be a part of a hearing in a higher court if these things haven’t been heard in a lower court. The case can in these situations get remitted or retried according to the new claims and circumstances. Whether or not this should happen is determined on a case to case basis unles

Human behavior plays a central role in an environmentally sustainable world. Organisations also have a significant environmental impact, with many allocating resources to the development of more sustainable products and technology. However, pro-environmental behavior in the workplace is often overlooked, despite the substantial opportunity organisations have to influence it. This study encourages

Efforts to regulate transnational corporations in the context of human rights are not new. They traced back to the early 1970s, when the United Nations first initiated attempts to study the impact of transnational corporations on the international development process and proposed a United Nations Code of Conduct on Transnational Corporations, an initiative that ultimately stalled. A renewed attemp

As mass timber construction gains momentum worldwide, cross-laminated timber (CLT) has emerged as an important material in the built environment. However, the combustible nature of wood presents challenges and fire safety concerns, and a key interest with respect to CLT is the adhesive bond line. CLT is commonly used in ceiling configuration, and current fire stability evaluations rely predominant

With the rapid diffusion of short video social media, a wave of rural influencers has emerged on China’s TikTok (Douyin), using short-form content to build personal brands and engage in sociocultural expression. Anchored in practice theory (Shove et al., 2012), this study adopts the “material–competence–meaning” triadic model to examine how these rural creators strategically construct personal bra

There is strong evidence that climate change has a direct impact on humans and extreme temperatures have been linked to negative health impacts and increasing mortality. The heat wave of 2018 caused up to 8.2% more deaths compared to the year before in Sweden, with higher impacts in other parts of the world. The fact that people spent almost 90% of their times indoors makes the indoor environment
