In 1994 the Swedish Construction Code, BKR, was changed from being based on material to being based on function. This permitted constructing multi-storey buildings with a bearing framework made of wood, which had been prohibited since the end of the 19th century. There is now a growing in- terest of using wood as a construction material. In Växjö four seven-storey buildings, Limnologen, are under
Background & Problem: The increased global competition has forced companies to perform project faster and better and minimising resource utilisation. This emphasis on efficiency is recognised by Tetra Pak Processing systems. Projects are complicated temporary endeavours, by exploring the efficiency decreasing parameters knowledge about how to increase efficiency can be gained. Purpose: The pur
Aims: To evaluate the predictive potential of preoperative psychological and psychophysiological variables in estimating severity of postoperative pain following mandibular third molar surgery (MTMS). Methods: Following ethical committee approval and informed consent, 40 consecutive patients scheduled for MTMS were included. Preoperative psychometric indicators of anxiety, depression, and vulnerab
Laminar burning velocity measurements of 50:50 and 85:15% (by volume) H-2-CO mixtures with O-2-N-2 and O-2-He oxidizers were performed at lean conditions (equivalence ratio from 0.5 to 1) and elevated pressures (1 atm-9 atm). The heat flux method (HFM) is employed for determining the laminar burning velocity of the fuel-oxidizer mixtures. HFM creates a one-dimensional adiabatic stretchless flame w
Popular Abstract in Swedish Käkförsedda havsborstmaskar (polychaeter) var artrika och vanliga i de tidigpaleozoiska haven. Maskarnas käkar, benämda scolecodonter i den vetenskapliga litteraturen, är mycket vanliga mikrofossil i sedimentära bergarter, främst kalkstenar av denna ålder. Mycket pekar därför på att de ofta utgjorde en väsentlig del av bottenfaunan. Trots mångfalden av scolecodonter harJawed polychaete annelid worms were abundant and diverse in the early Palaeozoic seas and their jaws (scolecodonts) are common microfossils in sedimentary rocks of that age. Despite their abundance, relatively little work has been focused on these fossils. One reason for this is that their taxonomy has been, and to some extent still is, in a state of disorder, mainly because of a parataxonomic tre
Abstract This research focuses on the lives of three Icelandic women born early in the 20th century. The aim of this study was to try to understand how these women viewed their life and how they experienced the changes that Icelandic society has undergone in the 20th century. The women are viewed as active agents that shaped their own lives but also had to live within material and social constrai
In recent years considerable investments have been made in the Swedish infrastructure and they are expected to continue in the near future. Large public investments within one particular area stimulate market growth and more companies will choose to establish themselves within this industry. When the market environment changes, even major players with large market shares will have to review their
Parallel trade in the pharmaceutical industry is a complicated issue because it has connections with competition law, trade law, and intellectual property law. International exhaustion benefits consumers by promoting price competition. This is an extremely attractive argument. For several years, the parallel trade in pharmaceutical products has been an important issue for the European pharmaceutic
This Master’s thesis aims to highlight the first decades of the Swedish archival society from a gender perspective. The timeframe of the research stretches from 1899, when the first Swedish National Archive’s regional archive was founded, to the 1960s, when the first women were employed as archivists. It includes the regional archives of Vadstena, Lund, Visby and Östersund. The theoretical basis f
Vid en historisk översikt av den Europeiska historien från 1900-talets början och framåt kan man se att kvinnor setts av det europeiska samhället som framförallt mödrar som skall ta hand om hemmet. Detta har visat sig genom samhällets, och Europadomstolens diskurs. Från det att kvinnor lämnade hemmet och började deltidsarbeta, och senare heltidsarbeta, så har denna syn succesivt förändrats. Vid tAt an historical overview of the European history, from the start of the 20th century and onward, one can see that the European society’s view of women have been that of the mother and the homemaker. This has been shown through the discourse of the society and the European Court of Justice. Since women left their homes and started working part-time, and later full-time, this view has change bit by
År 2015 kom över 35 000 ensamkommande barn till Sverige för att söka asyl. Endast 12 % av dem lämnade in någon sorts skriftlig handling, exempelvis en id-handling, som eventuellt kunde bekräfta deras identitet. Eftersom regeringen beräknade att antalet ensamkommande asylsökande barn skulle ligga på en fortsatt hög nivå under de kommande åren beslutade regeringen den 19 maj 2016 att uppdra åt RättsIn 2015, more than 35 000 unaccompanied children came to Sweden to seek asylum and only 12 % of them submitted some form of written document, for example an identity card, to confirm their identity. Due to the predicted high levels of unaccompanied asylum-seeking children, the Swedish Government decided on 19 May 2016 to instruct National Board of Forensic Medicine to begin implementing medical ag

The short lifetime of spark plugs in heavy-duty truck and stationary engines has been a major concern in the relevant industry. In this thesis work a time-resolved approach to detect the evaporation erosion of Ni electrodes in electrical discharges was proposed, and multiple detection methods were used to study the spark discharge. Spectroscopic study of the discharge's emission illustrated th
Uppsatsens syfte är att ur ett rättssäkerhetsperspektiv undersöka frivillighetsrekvisitet i 6 kap. 1 § brottsbalken. Först genom att undersöka hur lagstiftaren be-skrivit rekvisitet i förarbetena och lagtexten för att sedan analysera hovrättsdomar som tillämpat det. Detta för att avgöra om kritiken gällande oförutsebarheten i lagstiftningen varit befogad. Diskussionen om frivillighet kom på allvaThe purpose of this thesis is to examine the requirement of consent in chapter 6 section 1 of the Swedish Criminal Code (brottsbalken, SFS 1962:700) from a legal security perspective. First by examining how the legislator described the requirement in the legislative history and in the text of the law and thereafter by analyzing court cases where the requirement has been applied. This is to decide
The Standard Model of particle physics (SM) attempts to describe the fundamental particles and how they interact with each other. This model is however incomplete, as shown by various experimental observations. ATLAS is one of the experiments currently in operation at the Large Hadron Collider, which aims to search for new physics beyond the SM. To perform these searches, many ATLAS analyses look
Syftet med uppsatsen har varit att utreda på vilket sätt en kvinnas otrohet kan innebära strafflindring för en man som utövat våld mot kvinnan och om det finns anledning att kritisera den nuvarande möjligheten att med framgång åberopa otrohet som en förmildrande omständighet. Den kritiska analysen har delvis gjorts utifrån ett genusperspektiv. För det första kan det konstateras att en kvinnlig parThe purpose of this thesis has been to investigate in what ways infidelity by a woman can work as a mitigating factor for a man who has committed violence against the woman and if there are reasons to criticize this existing possibility to claim infidelity as a mitigating circumstance. A gender perspective has been applied when conducting parts of the critical analysis. It can be established that

The area covers the Krusne Hory and neighboring mountain areas (border area of Germany, Poland and the Czech Republic. A temporal comparison of land use of 1975 and 1989 of a sub area and a class
Background: Studies on the incidence of Cushing’s disease (CD) are few and usually limited by a small number of patients. The aim of this study was to assess the annual incidence in a nationwide cohort of patients with presumed CD in Sweden. Methods: Patients registered with a diagnostic code for Cushing’s syndrome (CS) or CD, between 1987 and 2013 were identified in the Swedish National Patient R
Standardisation is one of the oldest human activities. Industrial revolution and electro-technical advancements have further increased the importance of standardisation. Nowadays standards regulate our daily life not only through the products and services we use, but also directly as laws. In the EU, Harmonised European Standards (HESs) are used in legislation—occupying the law’s domain—but at the
We investigate here populations of cataclysmic variables (CVs) in a set of 288 globular cluster (GC) models evolved with the MOCCA code. This is by far the largest sample of GC models ever analysed with respect to CVs. Contrary to what has been argued for a long time, we found that dynamical destruction of primordial CV progenitors is much stronger in GCs than dynamical formation of CVs, and that
