När företag i intressegemenskap genomför värdeöverföringar över nations-gränser genom transaktioner som inte skulle ägt rum mellan oberoende parter, kan skattemyndigheter tillämpa så kallade korrigeringsregler. Då justerar man upp resultatet för företaget som genomförde överföringen ge-nom felaktig prissättning, och kan sedan beskatta den vinsten som skulle funnits där. För att undvika onödiga kosWhen associated enterprises move profits across national borders through transactions that would not take place between independent parties, tax aut-horities may apply so-called transfer pricing rules. They will adjust the results of the company that performed the transfer by incorrect pricing ar-rangements, and tax the profit that would have been there, were it not for the incorrect transfer pric

I svenska domstolar utvecklades under en period av över 30 år en påföljds-praxis i narkotikamål som i hög grad avvek från vad som gäller för andra brottstyper. Straffvärdebedömningen inom området styrdes i princip helt och hållet av tabeller grundade på arten och mängden narkotika. En omfattande praxisomläggning ägde rum åren 2011 till 2013. Omläggningen medförde att samtliga relevanta omständigheIn Swedish courts, over a period of more than 30 years, a practice of punishment was developed in drug cases, which largely differed from those of other types of crime. The penal value assessment in the area was basically governed entirely by tables based on the art and amount of drugs. A comprehensive practice review took place between 2011 and 2013. The conclusion was that all relevant circumsta

Våld i nära relationer, och då främst mäns våld mot kvinnor, utgör ett erkänt samhällsproblem. En särskilt utsatt grupp är våldsutsatta kvinnor med osäker uppehållsrätt som kommit till Sverige på anknytning till en svensk man. Kvinnorna får tidsbegränsade uppehållstillstånd och om anknytningen bryts föreligger inte längre förutsättningar för uppehållstillståndet, och kvinnan utvisas. Om kvinnan kaDomestic violence, and primarily men's violence against women, is a well-recognized social problem. A particularly vulnerable group is abused women with uncertain right of residence. Their migration status depends on that of their spouse, and they receive only a temporary residence permit.

Framtidens metod för pulsmätning utan direktkontakt Med hjälp av en ny metod att mäta puls, kan pulsen detekteras enklare och bättre på flera sätt. Metoden som presenteras i detta arbete använder en kamera för att i realtid kunna mäta patientens puls på avstånd. Detta leder till att patienten kan röra sig mer fritt under mätningarna. Det underlättar även för långtidsövervakning samt ger ett mer kMeasurements of heart rate without contact can be of much importance when the possibilities of skin contact for different reasons are limited, or for monitoring at distance over time. This is an emerging area in our time, and the idea to construct a working system to demonstrate the technique was therefore born. The work has been performed at the Department of Biomedical Engineering at LTH. The m

The sustainability transition of energy systems is fundamental if the Paris Agreement goal of keeping the increase in global average temperature to below 2˚C compared to preindustrial levels is to be achieved. Transitions ar

Metallisk bearbetning har varit en del av den industriella utvecklingen sedan järnåldern. Sedan dess har det ändrat form och kriterier men effektivitet i skärande bearbetning av metall har varit ett av de största målen i den industriella världen lika länge. För att ha maximal effektivitet krävs en viss nivå av processbeteende, vilket är det som inspirerade examensarbetet. Projektet genomfördes i sMetal cutting has been part of industrial development since the iron age. Since then, it has changed shapes and criteria, but efficiency in metal cutting has been one of the biggest goals in the industrial world for just as long. To have maximum efficiency requires some level of process behavior prediction, which inspired the degree project. The project was conducted in collaboration with Lund Uni
