Avtalslagens 36 § anses vara en av de mest betydelsefulla bestämmelserna i avtalslagen. Denna generalklausul öppnar upp möjligheten att jämka eller lämna ett avtal helt utan avseende. Ett avtal kan jämkas om en omständighet, som t.ex. ett senare inträffat förhållande, bedöms vara oskäligt. Syftet med uppsatsen är att närmare utreda hur oskälighetsbedömningen enligt 36 § AvtL görs, med fokus på än

Vad har en simulerad modell av ett fordon och en sportbil med 500 hästkrafter som körs på en frusen sjö i norra Sverige gemensamt? Jo, båda används eller kan användas till att testa den mjukvara som styr BorgWarners fyrhjulsdriftkopplingar. Genom att använda en simulerad bil och specialutvecklade testfall kan mjukvaran testas i alla tänkbara miljöer utan att behöva skeppa runt en riktig bil, även This Master’s thesis investigates if a previously integrated Simulink based vehicle model works for testing and verifying software on an ECU (electronic control unit) used to control a four-wheel drive coupling in cars. The testing is done through a specific program called CANoe that allows the tester to both develop and run test cases. This work also investigates the possibility to use static eva
