The last decades of the 10th century saw an upheaval in interregional contacts that shattered old arrangements. Some of the nodes in the network were abandoned. Sigtuna seems to be established in the wake of Birka’s demise, but it took two or three decades before foreign guests found their way on a regular basis. With the structural pre-millennium re-arrangement, negotiations with both Continental
This chapter discusses the history of the modern German university and the topicality of Wilhelm von Humboldt’s ideas. A key issue is how the Humboldtian tradition, with its origin in Prussia around the year 1800, was transformed and has informed debates about research, higher education and academic freedom ever since. Drawing on recent scholarship, this chapter investigates the ways in which Humb
De senaste åren har svenska domstolar ställts inför en ny invändning i våldtäktsmål. Invändningen gäller sexsomni vilket innebär att den tilltalade begått den sexuella handlingen i sömnen och att uppsåt för handlingen således har saknats. När åklagaren i dessa fall inte lyckats motbevisa invändningen har domstolen tvingats fria den tilltalande från ansvar. En tidigare historia av somnambulism elle
Rörelsedetektering av halspulsådern med ultraljudsbilder i 4D I denna studie har ett första försök till att mäta rörelsen i blodkärlsväggen hos halspulsådern med fyrdimensionella ultraljudsbilder gjorts. Mätningar av rörelsen i blodkärlsväggarna kan ge värdefull information om eventuella hjärt- och kärlsjukdomar. Hjärt- och kärlsjukdomar är orsaken till 30 % av världens alla dödsfall. År 2030 f
This thesis examines how the sterilization requirement for transgender individuals who wanted to change their legal gender in Sweden between 1972 and 2013 was shaped in governmental invesigations (Statens offentliga utredningar) based on expert opinions and dominant descourses in society. The thesis has also investigated whether the sterilization requirement can be seen as a biopolitical practice.
Chronic respiratory diseases remain a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. The only option at end-stage disease is lung transplantation, but there are not enough donor lungs to meet clinical demand. Alternative options to increase tissue availability for lung transplantation are urgently required to close the gap on this unmet clinical need. A growing number of tissue engineering appr
I november 2020 föll en meteorit ner utanför Uppsala och strax efter att den hittats blev det tvist om äganderätten till den. Ägaren till fastigheten meteori- ten landade på stämde upphittarna och hävdade att han hade bättre rätt till den. I tingsrätten föll domen till upphittarnas fördel efter att meteoriten hade klassificerats som lös egendom. I hovrätten blev det dock tvärtom då meteo- riten anIn November 2020, a meteorite fell just outside of Uppsala and soon after it was found, a dispute arose over ownership rights to it. The owner of the prop- erty where the meteorite landed sued the finders, claiming that he had a better right to it. The district court ruled in favor of the finders after classifying the meteorite as movable property. However, the court of appeal ruled the oppo- site
The aim of this collaboration, between the division of Thermal Power Engineering and Lunds Energi AB, is to investigate the possibilities of training artificial neural networks (ANNs) with power plant operational data. For this purpose operational data from Lunds Energi's gas turbine GT10B with heat recovery unit (HRU) will be used. Furthermore a model with user interface is created to dem
