Kuststaden Örnsköldsvik har, tack vare sin tidigare industrihamn, varit ett handelscentrum i Ångermanland. Under 1900-talets första hälft växte staden både befolkningsmässigt och ekonomiskt. Staden präglas fortfarande av vissa större industriverksamheter och sitt natursköna läge mitt i Höga Kusten. Detta examensarbete behandlar en parkeringsplats i centrala Örnsköldsvik. Platsen ligger i direkt aThanks to its former industrial harbour, the coastal town of Örnsköldsvik has been a centre of commerce in Ångermanland. During the first half of the 20th century, the city grew demographically and economically. The city is characterized by a few major industries and its scenic location amid Höga Kusten. This master thesis discusses a parking lot situated centrally in Örnsköldsvik. The spot is lo

Previous research shows that it is a complicated task to assess whether children are harmed or not and when children have autism spectrum disorder (ASD), it can be even more complicated. The aim of this study was to increase the understanding of challenges in assessments of children with ASD and their parents experienced by professional child welfare social workers. Qualitative semi-structured int

Sjömansyrket är till karaktären ett speciellt yrke där en grundförutsättning är att arbetstagare rör sig över nationsgränser. Genom arbetets natur och dess globala prägel har det historiskt varit ett yrke som särskiljts från den normala inkomstbeskattningen och varit föremål för undantagsregler. Både konkurrensskäl och kolliderande beskattningsanspråk från olika stater är bidragande orsaker till dThe seaman profession is by nature a special trade where a basic requirement is that employees move themselves over national borders. By the nature of the work and its global character it has historically been a profession that has been separated from normal income taxation and has been subject to exemption rules. Both competitive reasons and colliding taxation claims from different nations are co

This paper presents a selection of epigraphic documents dispersed over three quarry faces (C11–C13) in the Main Quarry (Q34) at Gebel el-Silsila’s east bank, dating from the reign of the Emperor Augustus. The aim is to describe and decipher the various marks and depictions, and to translate the Demotic and Greek texts, in order to determine for what structure the stone from the quarry was intendedThis paper presents a selection of epigraphic documents dispersed over three quarry faces (C11–C13) in the Main Quarry (Q34) at Gebel el-Silsila’s east bank, dating from the reign of the Emperor Augustus.

Uppsatsen behandlar vissa frågor kring rättsinstitutet särskild granskning enligt aktiebolagslagen. Särskild granskning tillhör aktiebolagslagens minoritetsskyddsregler och ger en minoritet av aktieägare rätt att genom Bolagsverkets försorg få en särskild granskare utsedd. Genom en specialundersökning kan avgränsade förhållanden i bolaget som är av extraordinär natur granskas. Förarbetena har uttaThe thesis deals with certain questions concerning the legal institute’s special examination according to the Swedish Companies Act (SCA). Requesting a special examiner is a part of different protection controls for minority shareholder in SCA and gives a minority of shareholders the right to get a special examiner appointed by the Swedish Companies Registration Office (SCRO). By conducting a spec

Gated communities är ett ovanligt boendekoncept i Sverige men har börjat få fotfäste i svensk stadsplanering. Syftet med denna uppsats är att genom en fallstudie undersöka varför Staffanstorps kommun väljer att initiera gated communities som en boendeform i sin stadsplanering, trots kritik från forskningen. Frågeställningarna som väglett studien är: vilka är de huvudsakliga drivkrafterna och faktoGated communities are an uncommon housing concept in Sweden but have begun to gain traction in Swedish urban planning. The purpose of this thesis is to investigate, through a case study, why the municipality of Staffanstorp chooses to initiate gated communities as a housing form in its urban planning, despite criticism from research. Through interviews, surveys, and document analysis, the study ha

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common arrhythmia among patients scheduled for open heart surgery and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. According to international guidelines, symptomatic and selected asymptomatic patients should be offered concomitant surgical AF ablation in conjunction with valvular or coronary surgery. The gold standard in AF surgery is the Cox Maze III ("cut-a

Building on a previous thesis, which focused on the historical emergence and transformations of different conceptions of so-called human rights cities (HRCs), this study focuses on the ramifications of operationalising the concept in practice in two cities on the Indonesian island Java. The thesis adopts sociological- and discursive new institutionalism as a point of departure for its analysis, lo

Background. Studies on perceived discrimination of people with mental illness are largely lacking. The purpose of the study was to investigate perceived discrimination in a sample of users in contact with mental health services in Sweden. Methods. Interviews were conducted with 156 users, asking for perceived and anticipated discrimination during the last 2 years. Background characteristics were a

Popular Abstract in Swedish Teknisk textil är en bred benämning för textila material med användningsområden som inte är beklädnad eller där utseendemässiga krav oftast är av underordnad betydelse. På senare tid har dock designsynpunkter på tekniska textilprodukter kommit att alltmer uppmärksammas och detta belyses i kapitel 10 i avhandlingen. Teknisk textil är en nygammal industrigren som genomgåtIn this thesis the tensile strength, deformation, damage resistance and tear propagation for flexible composites are analysed. There are two essential requirements common to all flexible composites; namely, high tearing strength and good matrix-to-fabric adhesion. The interaction of fabric and matrix is complex. The most critical variables are those of yarn and fabric structure, the mechanical pro

The calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) is a 37 residue neuropeptide which causes vasodilatation, increases heart rate and inhibits bone resorption. These effects make it an interesting lead for drug discovery. We have combined current structural and biological information to model the structure of hCGRP-beta to be used as a basis for the rational design of novel analogues. Distinct regions of

The past decade has brought tremendous progress in diagnostic and therapeutic options for cerebrovascular diseases as exemplified by the advent of thrombectomy in ischemic stroke, benefitting a steeply increasing number of stroke patients and potentially paving the way for a renaissance of neuroprotectants. Progress in basic science has been equally impressive. Based on a deeper understanding of p
