This research investigates the daylight regulation compliance of existing multi-family housing developments located primarily in Stockholm (Lat.: 59,33 °N), Sweden. A representative sample of 54 buildings consisting of 10.888 individual rooms was modelled according to archived documentation drawings and evaluated by use of Radiance simulations, to test their compliance with the current Swedish day
Femtosecond (fs)-laser electronic-excitation tagging velocimetry (FLEET) in a nitrogen flow field using a 267 nm laser was performed under the condition of fs-laser filamentation. The filamentous properties and their effects on velocity measurements were investigated and were compared with those of an 800 nm fs-laser. The results show that the required energy of the 267 nm laser pulse is as low as
A binocular eye tracker needs to be accurate to enable the determination of vergence, distance to the binocular fixation point and fixation disparity. These measures are useful in e.g. the research fields of visual perception, binocular control in reading and attention in 3D. Are binocular pupil-based video eye trackers accurate enough to produce meaningful binocular measures? Recent research reve
Background: Fish contains methylmercury (MeHg) which can cause oxidative stress and neurodevelopmental toxicity at sufficiently high doses. Fish also contains polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) which have both antioxidant (n-3) and oxidant (n-6) properties. Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) is sensitive to oxidative stress but has not been previously studied in relation to MeHg exposure or PUFA status. Ob
DN Debatt: Sverige har åtagit sig att skydda 20 procent av landets land- och sötvattensområden till 2020. Men hittills har bara 4–5 procent av den omfattande produktiva skogen bevarats. För att nå de demokratiskt beslutade målen måste Skogsstyrelsens beslut om stopp för inventering av nyckelbiotoper hävas, skriver sju forskare.
Collective effects are observed in high-multiplicity pp events, similar to the signals traditionally attributed to the formation of a Quark Gluon Plasma in heavy ion collisions. In core–corona models it is assumed that a partial plasma formation is indeed possible also in pp, but here the focus is on several recent models that attempt to explain pp data without invoking plasma formation. These att
Correct diagnosis of pulmonary tumors is essential for treatment decision and often relies on immunohistochemical markers. We stained tissue microarrays from resected primary lung cancer (n = 665) and pulmonary metastases (n = 425) for CK7, CK20, CDX2, CK5, p40, p63, TTF-1, napsin A, GATA3, and PAX8 to systematically assess the diagnostic value of these markers. Primary lung adenocarcinomas expres
Många företag använder ett kundhanteringssystem för att registrera interaktioner med sina kunder. I en allt mer mobil värld vill användarna av dessa system kunna använda systemen var de än befinner sig men oförändrad prestanda och funktionalitet.Working distributed is increasingly important today with technology being more and more portable while connectivity is still lacking in some areas. Cellphones and laptops are increasingly in use outside the office with connectivity to internal office services being unreliable, either due to lacking speed or inability to have a connection. Different solutions exist. One is a client-server setup wh
Today's network cameras are constantly evolving, giving us higher resolution and higher quality video streams which demands higher capacity data links. In Pan, Tilt, Zoom (rotating) cameras the Slip Ring acts as the single communication link between the stationary and rotating parts of the camera and at the same time enables unrestricted rotation. It is therefore a key component within the cam
In this essay, I use discourse theory on three versions of the Swedish abortion law: the current law from 2016, the law from 1974 and a bill from an abortion committee added in 1965. I also do a thematic content analysis on a parliamentary bill from 1974 discussing the need for and the purpose of a more permissive law. The history of the Swedish abortion law is diverse. In 1938, the law stated tha
Europeiska fotbollsklubbar har i allt högre grad kommit att anpassa sig efter den globala tevemarknaden och de potentiella nya supportrar den för med sig snarare än sina lokala supportrar. Mot den bakgrunden har ett visst samhällsvetenskapligt intresse börjat hysas för så kallade satelitsupportrar; det vill säga supportrar på distans som huvudsakligen konsumerar sitt lag via teve och andra medier.
In this study, I demonstrate that identity-building is an important discursive strategy for President Barack Obama in the seven-year long debate surrounding the Affordable Care Act (ACA). The data for the study comes from a 6-million word corpus of speeches that were held by Obama between January 2009 and January 2016, all published by the White House. The speeches are classified according to genr
Denna studie ämnar till att undersöka professionaliseringens och den ökade kon-kurrensens påverkan på humanitära organisationer samt hur förändringen påverkar deras kommunikation gentemot medlemmarna och bidragsgivarna. För att konkre-tisera det valda ämnet är denna studie en fallstudie med Rädda Barnen som fall. Studien och analysen är av en kvalitativ typ och vårt empiriska material består av inThe aim of this paper is to examine how the professionalization and the increased competition affect humanitarian organizations, as well as how the changes affect the communication with their members and contributors. We are carrying out a case study of the Save the Children organization in order to concretize the chosen subject. The study and analysis is of a qualitative type and our empirical ma
In trying to find a project from my bachelor’s degree, I looked back at my previous 3 years studying design. I wanted to give myself a challenge and decided to take this opportunity to work on some of my problem areas. My personal style have always been minimalistic but not explored enough as my projects often becomes conceptual with less focus on the aesthetics of the finished product and more on
Increasing rates of unemployment are becoming a major global issue nowadays, thus increasing uncertainty for young people. Creating new ventures and becoming entrepreneurs can serve as ‘long run’ career solutions to survive in high unemployment situations for students. This study aims to explore direct and indirect effects of emotional competence on entrepreneurial learning through multiple mediat
Chinese technical and vocational education (VET) has been developed rapidly after the economic reform since 1978. The graduates from VET schools have become the important labour force in the Chinese labour market. There is a debate on the employment situation of the VET graduates. Throughout the previous research, most of them focused on the employment rate and returns to education. This study aim
The expansion of the internet has increased steadily since its introduction in the early 1990’s. Whilst having many positive effects on many different areas of society, one area that has not been thoroughly analysed is the political. Being a source for information and communication the potential for the internet to have political implications is large. This essay analyses the possible effects high
Den engelska professorn och filosofen Roger Scruton har under ett långt akademiskt liv kritiserat samtiden på många olika sätt. Han är kritisk till det postmoderna samhället och filosofer som Focault, Derrida och Habermas. Han menar att den västerländska kulturen idag står under hot. Syftet med denna uppsats är därför att redogöra för och kritisk diskutera Scrutons analys och kritik av det västerlThe English professor and philosopher Roger Scruton has in a long academic life criticized contemporaries in many different ways. He is critical of the post-modern society and philosophers as Focault, Derrida and Habermas. He believes that Western culture today is under threat. The purpose of this bachelor's degree project is to describe and discuss critical Scrutons analysis and criticism of
The following thesis is a quantitative study on sexuality as it relates to gender and desire. By using the Klein Sexual Orientation Grid (KSOG) on a non-representative (snowball) sample, I want to explore ways of “measuring” and understanding sexuality on a quantitative level. My aim is to examine how the respondents’ sexuality is conveyed through KSOG and to what extent that picture corresponds t
