Background: At present a majority of older people remain in their ordinary homes. Research has generated knowledge about home and health dynamics and increased the awareness of the complexity of housing as related to ageing. As this knowledge is based mainly on research on very old, single-living people in ordinary housing there is a need to study other sub-groups of the ageing population. Thus, t
Förevarande uppsats syftar till att analysera godtagbarheten av en kriminali-sering av rymning från fängelse i svensk rätt. I den större delen av uppsatsen analyseras godtagbarheten utifrån de fem kriterier som satts upp i SOU 2013:38 Vad bör straffas? (Straffrättsutredningen). Därefter diskuteras huruvida det finns andra överväganden som behöver göras innan en eventuell kriminalisering beslutas. This essay aims to analyse the acceptability of a criminalisation of prison es-cape in Swedish law, based on the five criteria set out in SOU 2013:38 Vad bör straffas? (What should be punished?), called Straffrättsutredningen (The Criminal Justice Investigation). Furthermore, I discuss whether other consid-erations are needed before a criminalisation is decided. The discussions are based on the te
Sydvatten AB is a municipally owned company producing and supplying drinking water to about 900,000 inhabitants in southern Sweden through two water treatment plants (WTP), Ringsjöverket and Vombverket. At Vombverket, the present capacity is somewhat reduced because of pressure losses in the pipe systems of the WTP. Parts of the WTP was built already in the 1950’s and it was significantly expande
Project has different basis that must be completed to be able to present a finished product. Knowledge of the area and how the projection works will be used in efforts to implement the empirical study. Design assumptions are divided into two groups where some items are specific to a particular product while others are general conditions in all projects. The goal is to identify the conditions and a
Abstract The unprecedented fast-changing environment, embracing new information, manufacturing and process technologies in the context of the increasing globalisation of product and service market has had significant effect on the nature of work and subsequently affected career management of employees. Organizations today embark on many changes internally and externally in order to strengthen ther
With higher demands on farmers to reduce the usage of fertilizers and pes ti cides because of their negative environmental impact, as well as the rising prices of resources required for agriculture, precision agriculture has become a big focus in today’s agriculture research. Individual plant care systems are a big part of precision agriculture, and accurate information about the po si tions of in
Since the 1950's, mass tourism has become a considerable part of modern western culture. Examining where, why and how people have traveled can tell us a lot about people's habits and cultural frames of reference. Yet, the area of tourism history is fairly uncharted, with travelogs being one of the more prevalent objects of interest for academic research. Research focused on travel guides a
The Oak of Mambre presents an inner world of sound exploration, whose strands are woven through ancient cultures and traditions. Mambre is a birthplace, itself, literal and ideal. Compressions and rarefactions tell two stories; of Abram and Mambre, of survival and an heir.The Oak of Mambre begins where the reality and existence of a tone becomes manifest. Here we are looking at the sub-particulate

Three Approaches to Finitude in Belief Change Sven Ove Hansson (soh@kth.se) Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm, Sweden Abstract. Since neither a human mind nor a computer can deal directly with infinite structures, well-behaved models of belief change should operate exclusively on belief states that have a finite representation. Three ways to achieve this without resorting to a finite langua

Oats are common ingredients in many food products. They are valued for their nutritional composition and functional properties. At the same time, oat-based products can develop off-flavours during processing. Lipid oxidation is one important cause of this problem. Aldehydes such as hexanal and nonanal are especially relevant because they can give rancid, grassy, and stale notes. In this project, s
Phylogenies are central to many disciplines in biology. While disciplines such as systematics are focused on phylogenetic hypotheses themselves, other disciplines depend on robust and well-supported phylogenies in order to put biological data into evolutionary context through phylogenetic comparative studies. Examples of such fields are macroevolutionary research e.g. studying the evolution of a f
Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingens utgångspunkt är att sociala rörelser bör betraktas som politiska aktörer och samhälleliga uttryck för den under moderniteten centrala föreställningen om autonomi, det vill säga politiskt självstyre. För att förstå de sociala rörelsernas förhållande till politiken i stort bör man därför sätta dem i samband med dels moderniteten i sig, dels de avgörande föräA basic premise of this dissertation is that social movements are political and social actors expressing the centrality of autonomy in modernity. To grasp the nature of the relation between politics and social movements, the latter has to be related to the profound transformation in the forms of politics implied by the breakthrough of modernity, and the subsequent transformations within modernity.
Popular Abstract in Swedish Sjukdomsuppfattningar. Värderingar och attityder hos patienter och medicine studerande. Utvecklingen av den biomedicinska kunskapen och de demografiska förändringarna under 1900-talet har inneburit en ökning av såväl behov av som efterfrågan på hälso- och sjukvård. Illabefinnande utan påvisbara sjukdomstecken och rädsla för sjukdom ligger ofta bakom vårdsökande. OfficieDuring the 20th century, the development of biomedical knowledge and the demographical changes have increased the needs and demands for health care in industrialised countries. Illness without evidence of disease and fear of disease are often the reasons for seeking medical care. Primary care is the official foundation of the Swedish health care system but priorities are vague and frequently chang
The Swedish Program "Leadership, Organization and Communication" (LOM) was a research and a development program designed to support local processes of change in the private and the public sector. The program was carried out between 1985 and 1990. The strategy of LOM was focused on two basic principles: the principle of democratic dialogue and the principle of development of a "communicative infras
Popular Abstract in Swedish Tunnelbygget genom Hallandsåsen har utvecklats på ett sådant sätt och fått sådana konsekvenser, att frågan hur projektet skall förstås och förklaras är viktig. Vill man studera vilka mekanismer i samhället som kan förhindra projektets förlopp eller dess konsekvenser, bör man först förstå projektet. Matthias Baiers bok handlar om hur man med normer kan förstå och beskrivIn 1992 Swedens biggest tunnelproject begun. Two 8.5 km tunnels should cross a big ridge in southern Sweden which was seen as an obstacle to a fast and efficient railway line connecting Oslo and Gothenburg with Malmö and Copenhagen. However, the project had to stop in 1997 due to environmental damages. With only a third of the tunnel accomplished, the project was also much delayed and had a heavy
The thesis is a broad attempt to analyse economic forces behind, and economic rationales for, institutions that constrain the organisation and operation of insurance companies. The basic task is threefold: (i) to develop institutional theory by providing an outline of a transaction cost explanation of the origin of, and the rationale for, institutions that constrain the organisation and the operat
Eighty basal cell carcinomas (BCCs) in 21 patients, 10 lesions of Bowen's disease in three patients, and four lesions of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma in two patients, were treated with photodynamic laser therapy (PDT), using topical application of the haem precursor delta-amino levulinic acid (ALA). The diagnoses were confirmed histologically prior to treatment. Fifty-five of the BCCs were superficia
The emittances of the electron beams at the MAX-laboratory accelerator system have been studied. Apart from the build-up of the diagnostic tools for precise determination of the beam spatial profiles, the objectives have been: a) to verify the accelerator design emittances at low currents and to try to determine the emittances also at high currents; b) to investigate possibilities to manipulate th
