Increasingly, buildings are becoming complex “systems of systems” with many materials and attributes combining to create a whole that aims to meet a variety of design objectives including but not limited to functionality, aesthetic appeal, sustainability, safety, and security. We are now seeing this complexity move from commercial buildings and iconic structures to encompass even the residential s

In this essay I argue that with too few alternative approaches, the strong feminist epistemological habit of attending to the political utility of art risks placing representations of subjective narratives whose emancipatory qualities might be unclear or doubtful out of scholarly reach. Feminist art historian Irit Rogoff discusses how feminist art historians are inclined to acknowledge visual repr

Background: In the Malmö Diet and Cancer study, information on dietary habits was obtained through a modified diet history method, combining a 7-day menu book for cooked meals and a diet questionnaire for foods with low day-to-day variation. Half way through the baseline data collection, a change of interview routines was implemented in order to reduce interview time. Methods: Changes concentrated

Förekomsten av våld eller hot mot vittnen som påverkas och avskräcks från att vittna fritt och sanningsenligt är ett uppmärksammat problem. En lösning för att komma tillrätta med problemet, som varit föremål för många utredningar och rättsfall är anonyma vittnesmål. Frågan uppstår huruvida vittnesanonymitet är förenligt med kontradiktionsprincipen, som är en grundläggande rättssäkerhetsprincip vilThe prevalence of violence or threats against witnesses who are affected and refrained from witnessing freely and truthfully is an attentive problem. A solution to addressing the problem, which has been the subject of many investigations and legal cases, is anonymous testimony. The question arises whether witness anonymity complies with the principle of the defence, which is governed by the Code

Årligen mördas tusentals individer i hederns namn. I Sverige sker det uppskattningsvis fem hedersmord varje år och det råder även ett stor mörkertal kring hedersmord då många fall i brist på bevis rubriceras som självmord. För att bekämpa hedersvåld och förtryck erfordras samhällsinsatser i olika former. Ett verktyg till samhällsförändring och för att bekämpa hederskulturens negativa aspekter kanThousands of people lose their lives in the name of the honor every year. In Sweden, there are estimated five honor killings each year. There is also a big hidden statistics when it comes to honoring killing, many cases are classified as suicide in the absence of evidence. Social efforts are required in various forms in order to combat honor-related violence and oppression. There is a solution t

I denna uppsats så har det undersökts i vilka fall en inkomst som civilrättsligt har tillfallit ett aktiebolag ska beskattas hos dess ägare. Uppsatsen har mer specifikt fokuserat på den situation som uppstår när en verksamhet som bedrivs i ett aktiebolag inte utgör en självständigt bedriven näringsverksamhet enligt 13 kap 1 § IL.

Den som har ett rättsligt anspråk gentemot någon annan kan väcka talan i domstol för att låta anspråket komma under rättslig prövning. Rätten till domstolsprövning garanteras genom artikel 6(1) EKMR. Det förekommer emellertid att en kärande eller en potentiell svarande ingår avtal med någon utomstående med innebörden att den senare ska föra kärandens eller den potentielle svarandens talan vid domsA person who has a legal claim against another party can bring his claim before a court. The fundamental right of access to court is expressed in Article 6(1) of the ECHR. However, it is common that a plaintiff or a potential defendant enters into agreement with a third party implying that the latter shall bring the claim before court instead of the plaintiff/defendant.

Kommuners tillsyn av rökfria skolgårdar Rökning kostar det svenska samhället uppskattat 30 miljarder kronor per år i kostnaden för sjukvård, produktionsförluster och sjukskrivning. Rökning bland ungdomar har minskat de senaste åren, men det är fortfarande nästan en fjärdedel av alla elever i årskurs 2 på gymnasiet, ser sig själv som rökare. För att stoppa ungdomar från att röka genomför kommunen The purpose of this study was to investigate the supervision of non-smoking school yards in Sweden. Smoking costs Swedish society an estimated 30 billion SEK annually in cost for healthcare, production losses and sick leave. Smoking among adolescents has declined in recent years, but it is still 24 % in high school's grade 2, which categorized as smokers. The supervision of the schoolyard is t

Quantum memories are used for storing the quantum mechanical states of photons and release identical photons at a later time. This has many applications within the field of quantum computing and is also essential in order to achieve long range quantum communication and cryptography. In this thesis Atomic frequency comb (AFC) quantum memories were investigated. In particular, three-level memory sch

The purpose of this master thesis is to investigate the influencing factors on the business potential of products with health claims, using PrimaLiv as an example. And to give recommendations on how a dairy producer, which is present in the Swedish market, could improve the sales rates of products with health claims. We have chosen to put a main focus on the consumer, as he or she determines the b

Abstract Authors: Ulrika Karlsson & Lise-Lotte Vaxell Title: Swedish elderly care- Under the microscope.

To be able to do this we

This thesis explores how the handling, analysis and transformations of material and data affect the production of knowledge in an applied project of cultural analysis. It concerns itself mainly with the process of dislocation, transformation and transportation of meaning, by putting to work the actor-network theories of Bruno Latour. An attempt will be made to retrace the steps of creating materia

The focus of this research is to examine the basic factors affecting the West Sahrawi young refugees’ lives and survival strategies in their situation of exile in the refugee camps of Tindouf, Algeria. The purpose is to answer the following questions: First, which are the main problems as perceived by the youth born in the refugee camps? Second, which are their coping strategies? And finally, whic

We observe that, while predicting returns remain difficult and uncertain, volatility exhibit more persistence and predictability due to well-known patterns such as volatility clustering (Mandelbrot, 1967). We test whether short-horizon volatility forecasts can be used to time leverage in a passive index strategy so as to mitigate the growth penalty from volatility drag in leveraged exchange-traded
