To meet the demands of high electrical efficiencies in combination with low emissions for gas turbine-based power plants, wet cycles have gained new interest. The combustion chamber is a key component in such a power plant. Detailed investigations are necessary to gain insight into the formation of hazardous emissions such as CO and NOx. In this paper, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) has been e
In Statistical Shape Modeling, a dense correspondence between the shapes in the training set must be established. Traditionally this has been done by hand, a process that commonly requires a lot of work and is difficult, especially in 3D. In recent years there has been a lot of work on automatic construction of Shape Models. In recent papers (Davies et al., Medical Image Computing and Computer-Ass
When planning new environments, such as homes and workplaces, for the physically disabled it is important to encourage active participation from all those involved. In a research programme initiated at the Lund Institute of Technology, Sweden, a new planning method is being introduced which utilizes computer-aided design as a planning tool. This tool supports and activates the understanding and pa
Syftet med denna studie var dels att samla information om den sanitära status som gäller för Mafraqs deponi och dels att bedöma lakvattnets och grundvattnets kvalitet i dess närområde. Mafraqs deponi befinner sig på en av Jordaniens viktigaste akvifer och utgör därigenom ett potentielt hot mot grundvattnets kvalitet. I området runt om deponin används grundvattnet som dricksvatten och för konstbeva
Jämförelse mellan småfåglars revir i stad och i skog Sedan människan började bygga civilisationer med städer för tiotusen år sedan har andra organismer ställts inför ett val, att flytta på sig, att gå under eller att anpassa sig. Staden är ur ett biologiskt perspektiv en mycket ny miljö och det kan vara svårt att säga hur miljön påverkar de som väljer att bosätta sig här. Många djur har dock lyc
This study aims to evaluate Malmö stad integration work regarding the integration of incoming overseas women to the employment sector. In order to understand what Malmö stad integration work means, the overall establishment policy of the governmental offices is evaluated. Malmö stad receives six hundred immigrant every year. In Malmo there is already housing shortage, and Sweden is already faced
I folkrättsligt hänseende är en stat endast skyldig att låta de egna medborgarna uppehålla sig på dess territorium. Ur ett EU-rättsligt perspektiv är dock varje medlemsstat förpliktad att tillämpa de regler som avser främja fri rörlighet för personer inom unionen. Dessa återfinns i EU:s primärrättsliga stadganden men konkretiseras genom sekundärrättsliga bestämmelser, framförallt genom direktiv 20With regard to international law, a state is only required to allow its citizens to reside within its own territory. However, from an EU law perspective, each Member State is obliged to apply regulations which intend to facilitate the free movement of persons within the EU. This is expressly laid down in the EU treaties, but must be viewed within the context of secondary law, in particular, the Ci
The right to health for persons with disabilities in the global South is far from being realized. The 2011 World Report on Disability suggests that the majority of persons with disabilities live in low- and middle-income countries. Further studies suggest that around 80% of persons with disabilities in global South countries report poor health. With this in mind, this thesis will focus on the righ
This study aims to examine the challenges and practices of staff working at accommodations regulated by the Swedish Act concerning support and service for persons with certain functional impairments (LSS) when working with women with disabilities who have suffered from violence. Previous research shows that women with disabilities are at a greater risk of being victims of violence. Despite this kn
The purpose of this report is to implement and compare the two Basel III standard methods on how to calculate the capital requirement for finan- cial institutions, related to counterparty credit risk. The models being the Standardized Approach for Counterparty Credit Risk (SA-CCR) and the Internal Model Method (IMM). The SA-CCR model is a simpler and more standardized model with prescribed methods
Gensax löser gåta om cellandning Gensaxen CRISPR-Cas9 är ett användbart redskap för att studera proteiner och deras funktioner. Den tillåter modifikationer att göras på specifika positioner på DNA som kan resultera i olika varianter av proteiner. Dessa varianter kan studeras och slutsatser kan dras om deras funktioner. Här utvärderas en CRISPR-Cas9-baserad metod, samt används för att studera samm
Den här uppsatsen undersöker Europadomstolens praxis gällande utvisningar av personer som har begått brott, som hävdar att deras utvisning strider mot Artikel 8 av Europakonventionen. Uppsatsen undersöker hur domstolen har använt sig av den nationella beslutsprocessens kvalitet som ett argument för att komma fram till sin slutsats i sådana fall. Uppsatsen utgår från premissen att utvisningar som bThis thesis examines the practice of the European Court of Human Rights to decide expulsion cases implicating migrants with criminal record under Article 8 of the European Convention on Human Rights by use of process-based review. It departs from the premise that such expulsions do not violate absolute rights but constitute interferences with a qualified right, which allows for infringements neces
Järnvägen utgör grunden för pendeltrafiken inom region Stockholm och störningar i järnvägstrafiken påverkar många resenärer. En vanlig orsak till störningar i järnvägstrafiken är att obehöriga personer vistas vid spåren. Mellan 2010-01-01 och 2015-05-18 har närmare 1100 händelser med obehöriga vid spår rapporterats i region Stockholm, varav drygt 80 fall resulterat i personpåkörningar med dödligt The railway constitutes the foundation of commuting in the region of Stockholm and disruptions in the railway traffic hence affects a lot of citizens. A common cause of disruptions is railroad trespassing and between 2010-01-01 and 2015-05-18 more than 1100 cases were reported in the region of Stockholm. The aim of this report is to map the grounds for railroad trespassing and to find measures to
Analys av hjältinnan utifrån ett feministiskt perspektiv.

Are there such things as moral, rights and an inner sense of justice? Do they origin from God or are they something given by nature? If there are such things, should they be a part of the legal system? This essay has drawn its inspiration from this kind of thoughts and how they have been handled through history. The structure of the essay is two-folded. Part one is a historical review of the eme
Popular Abstract in Swedish I högrisksystem såsom sjukvården är det frestande att härleda såväl framgång som motgång till enskilda individer. Vi prisar hjälten Dr. House för framgångssagor och vi drar syndabocken SOS-sköterskan inför domstol för att inte ha uppfattat allvaret i en specifik situation. Den enskildes professionalitet, erfarenhet och klokskap används som förklaringsmodeller för framgåThe main aim of the research is to explore different aspects of organisational resilience in escalating situations, with an investigation of both theoretical and practical implications. From the platform of an explorative approach, this study makes use of naturalistic research in the domain of health care and experimental simulation studies, in order to establish a broad theoretical framework vis-
This study investigates online material published in reaction to a Science magazine report showing the absence of peer-review and editorial processes in a set of fee-charging open access journals in Biology. Quantitative and qualitative textual analyses are combined to map conceptual relations in these reactions; and to explore how understandings of scholarly communication and publishing relate to
Popular Abstract in Swedish Arsenik (As) finns i grundvatten på många platser i världen, och mer än 100 miljoner människor världen över exponeras dagligen för As via dricksvatten. Kronisk exponering för As kan orsaka bl.a. cancer, hjärt-kärlsjukdom och diabetes. När As omsätts (metaboliseras) i kroppen bildas flera olika omsättningsprodukter (metaboliter) emellan vilka giftigheten skiljer sig åt. Over 100 million people around the world are exposed to high concentrations of arsenic (As) in drinking water, associated with a number of adverse health effects such as skin, lung and bladder cancer, vascular diseases and diabetes. In humans, As is metabolized via alternating reduction and methylation reactions, from inorganic As (iAs) into monomethylated (MMA) and dimethylated As (DMA). The most
