This thesis is a concept study performed at Caran AB by order of Volvo Car Corporation, VCC. The background is a market research performed by VCC. From the research, a need for a product that facilitates reaching the trunk level in Volvo’s SUV, XC90, was recognized. It was also found, that dogs seem to find it difficult to get up in the trunk, why dogs have been accounted for during the developmen
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
The overall aim of this thesis was to describe parent’s experiences, reactions and needs in connection with a routine ultrasound examination during pregnancy when the foetus was found to have an abnormal ultrasound finding. The data collection began in February 2005 and the one year cohort study was completed by March 2006. The participants in this study were each asked if they would also consid
Today, as a rule, the most cost-effective way to remove nitrogen from municipal wastewater is the biological method based on nitrification and subsequent denitrification. All biological systems may be affected by toxicants, and biological nitrogen removal is no exception. An investigation of influent wastewaters from 109 Swedish municipal wastewater treatment plants was accomplished. Inhibitory s
1. The effects of varied levels (25-300 mM) of ionic strength on mechanical properties and ATP hydrolysis rate of chemically skinned guinea-pig taenia coli fibres were investigated. 2. The tension development following activation by calcium (pCa 4 8), and relaxation following removal of calcium (pCa 9), were slower in 25 mm compared to 150 mm ionic strength. In fibres activated by thiophosphorylat
Popular Abstract in German Spannungsgesteuerte Kalziumkanäle haben eine große Bedeutung in vielen elektrisch erregbaren Zellen, wie z.B. in Nervenzellen und pankreatischen beta-Zellen. Hier werden sie folgendermaßen aktiviert: In der Nahrung enthaltener Traubenzucker (Glukose) wird nach einer Mahlzeit über den Blutstrom im Körper verteilt und in die beta-Zellen über Glukosetransporter aufgenommen.Voltage-gated Ca2+ channels are essential transducers of cellular signals in many electrically excitable cells. In the pancreatic beta-cell they mediate controlled Ca2+ influx, which is the final trigger for Ca2+ dependent release (exocytosis) of the blood glucose lowering hormone insulin. Several subtypes of voltage-gated Ca2+ channels are known and the L-type has been found to be the main contri
Popular Abstract in English Uganda is one of the youngest nations in the world. Majority of youth in Uganda are growing up in rapidly urbanizing and globalized environments that are characterized by changing social controls and breakdown of traditional norms. However, the youth still continue to face widespread poverty, high levels of unemployment, and have limited access to educational opportunitThe growing incidence and prevalence of sexually transmitted infections among young people, particularly HIV, is a public health concern in Uganda. There is increasing evidence that Ugandan youth engage in risky sexual behaviors, transactional sex, and experience sexual coercion. Most research on sexual behaviors has been limited to inter- and intra-personal factors that influence sexual behaviors
Popular Abstract in Swedish Denna avhandling behandlar den process där man beräknar undervattensströmmar från ljud som reflekteras från en utsänd ljudpuls, precis som när en fladdermus bedömer omgivningen genom att lyssna på ekot. En ton skickas ut under en kort tid, och det Dopplerskift som uppkommer från rörliga föremål i vattnet kan sedan omsättas till vattenhastiget eller ström. Föremål som röThis thesis deals with the process of estimating underwater current from the backscattering signal transmitted from an ultrasonic transducer. The narrowband sinusoidal burst signal is Doppler-shifted due to the current, and this information is converted into current. The traditional mathematical model for this Doppler process is based on the assumption that the backscattering time signal is Gaussi

The aim of this Master's thesis is to discuss and analyse co-operation between public and academic libraries. The political changes that were initiated during 2004 have come to alter the conditions for Swedish libraries. The Swedish library law was changed at the 1st of January 2005 and co-operation between libraries is now statuary even if there is no description of how the new mission is to
Inom konkursrätten syftar bouppteckningseden till att förmå gäldenären att uppge alla tillgångar i konkursboet sanningsenligt. Uppsatsen behandlar bouppteckningsedens uppkomst ur ett rättshistoriskt perspektiv med det bakomliggande motivet att fastställa dess syfte och religiösa prägel. Vidare behandlas frågan vilken ställning bouppteckningen har i dagens konkursrätt och hur pass nödvändig den är Under bankruptcy law the estate inventory-oath aims to persuade the debtor to disclose all the assets of the bankruptcy estate truthfully. This essay deals with the origin of oath from a legal historical perspective, with of aim of defining its purpose. It further examines the status of the estate inventory-oath in the current bankruptcy law and how necessary it is in practice. A study of legal
When the United Nations was created in 1945, states were the only significant decision-makers. Even with the construction of the human rights regime in the aftermath of the Second World War, states were designated as the only duty-bearers who could violate international human rights law. States alone were held responsible for implementing human rights principles by enforcing treaty-based obligatio
I dagens globala ekonomi råder det konkurrens om den högkvalificerade arbetskraften. Det är ett särskilt stort problem att attrahera denna lättrörliga personkategori till högskatteländer som Sverige och Danmark. Båda länderna har därför infört särskilda skattelättnader riktade mot denna personkrets. Den svenska expertskatten är reglerad i 11 kap 22-23 a §§ inkomstskattelagen och den danska forskerHigh-skilled workers are greatly valued on the global labor market. As a result, a number of countries have introduced targeted tax concessions for high-skilled labor in order to attract this particular part of the workforce. This is especially true for high-tax countries, concerned that the high tax rates dis¬courage high-skilled workers from locating in a particular country. Sweden and Denmark a
Currently, policy makers put high attention in supplying global energy demand by focusing on 2°C policy; global temperature anomaly based on the global mean temperature of pre-industrial era (13.7°C). How to keep the 2°C policy at global scope is the main question in climate framework. It is widely believed that primary energy resources (mainly coal, oil and natural gas) with focus on shale gas re
Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka integrationsklausulen utifrån ett svenskt civilprocessrättsligt perspektiv. En integrationsklausul syftar till att visa att det skriftliga avtalsdokumentet utgör avtalsparternas fullständiga avtalsförhållande. Således ska det skriftliga avtalet ersätta alla tidigare förhandlingar, diskussioner och andra sådana prekontraktuella mellanhavanden som förekommitThe purpose of this paper is to analyze the integration clause from a Swedish civil procedural perspective. An integration clause is typically intended to show that the written contract is the entire agreement between the contracting parties. It thus supersedes all agreements, discussions and other such pre-contractual dealings that were undertaken before the establishment and signing of the writt
SLAP2: A potential new strategy in fighting cancer Among more than 20,000 genes in humans, about 2% of genes encode a class of proteins referred to as kinases. A kinase is a protein, which transfers phosphate groups to proteins called substrate proteins. This process is named phosphorylation and almost all cellular behaviors are controlled by protein phosphorylation. Kinases mainly phosphorylate
