This paper presents a decomposition strategy applicable to DAE constrained optimization problems. A common solution method for such problems is to apply a direct transcription method and solve the re- sulting nonlinear program using an interior-point algorithm. For this approach, the time to solve the linearized KKT system at each iteration typically dominates the total solution time. In our propo

Sammanfattning År 1969 påbörjades en utredning som kom att resultera i lag om samboende gemensamma bostad (1973:651). Det var första gången en lag stiftades som specifikt tog syfte på samboskapet som samlevnadsform. Med lagen infördes en viss övertaganderätt av den bostad som utgjorde sambornas gemensamma hem. Lagstiftningen har utvidgats och modifierats sedan dess. I den nu gällande sambolagen (2Summary In 1969 began a legislative investigation that resulted in the law on cohabitants’ joint dwelling (1973:651). It was the first time a law was passed that specifically aimed at this form of cohabitation. The law introduced a certain right to take over the property which constituted the cohabitees’ common home. The legislation has been extended and modified since then. In the current Cohabit
Det centrala för denna uppsats är att ur ett borgenärsinriktat perspektiv utreda två alternativ för rekonstruktion av företag; företagsrekonstruktion genom FrekL och rekonstruktion genom konkurs. FrekL är en tämligen ny lag i den svenska insolvensrätten. Tidigare rekonstruktioner av företag skedde så gott som alltid genom konkurs, även om AckL fanns som alternativ. FrekL var bland annat tänkt likThe main issue in this essay is from a creditors perspective. Analysis will cover two alternatives for the reorganization of companies: First, the Swedish correspondence, “FrekL,” to the American Chapter 11 and, second, reorganization through bankruptcy. FrekL is a fairly new law within the Swedish insolvency law. Earlier reorganization of companies were almost always made through bankruptcy, ev
The study evolves around the emergence of a gender awareness in the Kenyan political consciousness, as a consequence of the adoption of the alternative development discourse, promoting values like equal participation and empowerment. My task has been to determine the outcome of local development initiatives in terms of women's empowerment and then relate the findings to theories on discursive
Syftet med examensarbetet är att hjälpa ett företag med att införa standardlittera för deras prefabricerade betongelement som ingår i deras Konceptet. Införandet av standardlittera ska resultera till att återfinna och gruppera deras betongelement i CAD-systemen. We did our thesis project at one of the most prestigious Swedish construction companies. We have examined the possibilities of doing sand
Northern peatlands have accumulated carbon for thousands of years and currently hold around one third of all soil carbon on earth. Large uncertainties are associated with predictions of how northern peatlands will react to climate change. This is because the cold, wet and anaerobic conditions lead to two opposing forces from a radiative forcing perspective – CO2 sequestration from photosynthesis b
Denna uppsats syftar till att undersöka vilka effekter ett införande av fotboja som ungdomspåföljd skulle innebära för de unga som i så fall skulle komma i fråga för påföljden. Utgångspunkt tas i det förslag på införande av fotboja för unga som återfinns i SOU 2012:34 Nya påföljder, där påföljden kallas för ungdomsövervakning. Inledningsvis tecknas en översiktlig bild av det rättspolitiska dagsläThe aim of this thesis is to examine the potential effects on youths of an introduction of electronic tagging into the Swedish penal system for juveniles. The proposition of such electronic tagging, presented in SOU 2012:34 Nya påföljder (“New sanctions”) by the name ungdomsövervakning (“youth monitoring”), acts as a starting point for the investigation of the expected effects on youths. First,
Uppsatsens syfte är att utreda bevisprövningen för asylsökande med flyktinggrunden sexuell läggning. Fokus har varit att granska den praktiska tillämpningen och vilka värderingar Migrationsverket och migrationsdomstolarna gör när den enskilda ska bevisa sin sexuella läggning. Jag har därav granskat 12 domar från olika migrationsdomstolar, samt undersökt de bakomliggande besluten från MigrationsverThis essay’s purpose is to investigate the evaluation of proof for asylum seekers that fear persecution because of their sexual orientation. The focus has been to examine the practical application and what assessments the Swedish Migration Agency and migration courts make in order for the individual to prove their sexual orientation. I have therefore examined 12 judgements from different migration
I takt med den tekniska utvecklingen behandlas personuppgifter i allt större utsträckning och mer gränsöverskridande. Behandling och överföring av personuppgifter är förenat med en risk för att individens integritetsskydd åsidosätts. EU har en stark dataskyddslagstiftning och värnar om skydd av EU-medborgares personuppgifter. USA har inte en lika stark dataskyddslagstiftning. Samtidigt är USA enWith the fast development in information technology, personal data is increasingly being processed and interchanged cross-border. Processing and transfer of personal data is associated with a risk that the individual's privacy protection is disregarded. The EU has strong data protection legislations and a strong protection of the personal data of EU citizens. The U.S. does not have as strong
The terahertz region of the electromagnetic spectrum is an important research area allowing insights into fundamental science such as inter-molecular interactions, and with applications in the environmental, medical and security field. Using femtosecond lasers, it is possible to design compact and efficient terahertz generation schemes, resulting in few-cycle broadband pulses. This master thesis i
Allteftersom företag har börjat att ompröva sättet de designar, tillverkar och avyttrar produkter inom ramarna för hållbar utveckling så har tillverkare av akustiska produkter varit långsamma ur startblocken. Majoriteten av akustiska produkter är fortfarande primärt sammansatta av nyråvara från petrokemiska resurser, vilka har en signifikant påverkan på miljön. Det är problematiskt ur både en miljAs industries have begun to rethink the way they design, make and dispose of products for the purpose of sustainable development, manufacturers of acoustic products have been slow off the mark. The majority of acoustic products are still made of primarily virgin material made from petrochemical resources, which have a significant impact on the environment. This is problematic from an environmental
Popular Abstract in Swedish Soffan är en stor och vanligt förekommande möbel. Hur viktig den är blir särskilt tydligt när människor själva planerar sina bostäder och ekonomin styr bostadens storlek. Erfarenheter från tre projekt med brukarinflytande i bostadsplanering ligger till grund för det här avhandlingsarbetet. I samtal kring soffan visar det sig att den är intimt förknippad med värderingar Experiences of participatory design with full-scale modelling in three case studies form the basis of this work. When the participants in these studies visualised their dwellings there was a strong focus on the sofa. This piece of furniture is one of the most common in Swedish homes. It also requires much space. Additionally, the lay-people focused on different kinds of functional needs while sitt
A new eight-week introductory course to the medical program has been developed and launched. The core idea is to give the students an overview of the program in order to understand how its different parts are interrelated. Central themes include research as part of clinical practice, the role of the doctor as a professional and the different working methods of the program, in particular the proble
We report on the first time-resolved small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) study of the structural relaxation from a shear-induced aligned state back to the isotropic state in a system of giant wormlike reverse micelles. The micelles are formed by lecithin and small amounts of water in cyclohexane. A liquid sample with the micellar volume fraction phi = 0.3 was exposed to a steady shear of (gamma)
The balance between exploration and exploitation is one of the key problems of action selection in Q-learning. Pure exploitation causes the agent to reach the locally optimal policies quickly, whereas excessive exploration degrades the performance of the Q-learning algorithm even if it may accelerate the learning process and allow avoiding the locally optimal policies. In this paper, finding the o
Since the working environment act was passed in 1991 employers in Sweden are to plan and control the working environment conditions in workplaces. They are responsible for organized rehabilitation at the workplace including the development of rehabilitation plans and a plan for interventions in order for a sick-listed client to be able to return to work.The aim of this study was to describe employ
Riskkapitalmarknaden kan härledas så långt tillbaka som till 1940-talet då de första private equity-investeringarna genomfördes i USA, och sedan dess har branschens utsträckning ständigt förändrats i takt med det rådande ekonomiska klimatet, både hög- och lågkonjunkturer, och är idag ett starkt etablerat fenomen även i Sverige. Private equity är den investeringsform som inom samlingsbegreppet risThe risk capital market can be traced as far back as the 1940s when the first private equity investment was made in the United States, and since then, the industry has constantly changed along with the current economic climate, and is today a strongly established phenomenon even in Sweden. The term private equity covers all investments that are made in unlisted companies and they typically involv
