Typical for Western classical music is the process of interpreting and conveying a written score into sounding music. However, sometimes the communication of musical issues between musicians may be experienced as aggravating. In educational contexts in a broad sense, it might be advantageous if this communication could be facilitated, for example, by using visual illustrations as a complement to t
The main question of this thesis is if a practice is right because it is prescribed by an ethical theory, or if an ethical theory is right because it follows from certain practices? I propose the following definitions to illustrate the main alternatives: (1) if a practice is determined by an ethical theory and the ethical theory is not determined by practice, it is possible to speak of a top-down
Energy use and supply are evident issues to consider for a sustainable development, where the economic, social and environmental aspects are all important. In large grid-bound systems, the supply of energy is usually a rather invisible activity and the contacts between household custo-mers and utilities are sometimes only repre-sented through the energy bill. In this thesis, three particular field
The importance of the ability to use bipedal stance and gait in everyday life cannot be underestimated. Bipedal stance is learned during childhood and constantly adapted to changing circumstances throughout life. Failure to attain and maintain the control of upright posture can have catastrophic consequences. Postural competence needs to be recovered in a multitude of illness, in developmental dis
I ett internationellt syndikerat låneförfarande går en grupp banker, under ledning av en så kallad arrangörsbank, ihop för att tillsammans finansiera en låntagares kapitalbehov. Det karaktäristiska för arrangemanget, som kan involvera allt från två till flera hundra långivare och enorma summor pengar, är att samtliga deltagande långivare ingår individuella låneavtal med låntagaren vilka samlas undAn international syndicated loan consists of a collection of two or more separate loans made by individual banks to one borrower, which are governed by a single agreement and subject to the same terms and conditions. The arrangement, which may involve everything from just a few to hundreds of banks and enormous amounts of money, offers many advantages for borrowers since it may allow for a more fl

Migrant women facing domestic violence in the Council of Europe have been traditionally characterised, except in some national countries, as not having any legal possibility to leave the situation with proper resources, or being able to guarantee their stay in the country they are living. Since the approval of the Council of Europe Convention on preventing and combating violence against women and
Den fotokemiska reaktorn vid Copenhagen Centre for Atmospheric Research, Köpenhamns universitet, har i denna studie används för att bestämma nya värden på hastighetskonstanterna k(i) för reaktionen: CH3Br + OH -> produkter (i) och k(ii) för reaktionen: CH3Br + O(1D) -> produkter. (ii) Radikalerna (O(1D) och OH) framställdes i studien genom att fotolysera ozonmolekyler med UV-C-ljus. OxidationsprocThe photochemical reactor in Copenhagen Centre for Atmospheric Research, University of Copenhagen, was used to determine new values for the rate constants k(i) and of the reaction: CH3Br + OH −> products (i) and k(ii) for the reaction: CH3Br + O(1D) −> products. (ii) The radicals (O(1D) and OH) were produced by photolysis of ozone molecules with UV-C light. The oxidation process was monitored by a
Background: The ability to quickly provide parts for the supply of advanced technical systems in equipment-intensive industries (such as airlines and nuclear power plants) is critical to the systems overall performance. In order to maintain a targeted system availability large quantities of spare parts are often required which in turn results in excessive inventory costs. Seeing as inventory syste
Följande uppsats behandlar det föreslagna kronvittnessystemet, genom att inledningsvis redogöra för gällande rätt och det konkreta författningsförslaget, för att sedan besvara uppsatsens syfte med hjälp av det material som framlagts. För att ge läsaren en utökad förståelse för den historiska aspekten, och varför det inte tidigare instiftats ett kronvittnessystem, redogörs för hur strafflindring hThe following essay investigates the proposed crown witness legislation, by initially describing the applicable law and the concrete law proposal, in order to answer the purpose of the essay. To give the reader a greater understanding of why a crown witness system hasn’t previously been established, the essay describes how mitigation of punishment has been developed in Swedish law, and how crown
Popular Abstract in Swedish Föräldrars involvering i skolan har under de senaste decennierna betonats allt mer i skoldebatten. Länge betraktades skolutbildning som enbart ett samhälleligt ansvar, vilket ofta medförde ett markerat avståndstagande från familjen och föräldrarna. Likt andra samhälleliga servicefunktioner har emellertid också skolan i sitt förhållande till sina användare undergått en fOver the last two decades, educational reforms have stimulated an enormous growth in innovative school thinking, effecting both independent schools and mainstream education. Parents and interest groups, previously excluded from general pedagogic practice and planning, are now faced with new opportunities and responsibilities. Parents “invest” in these newly won options in very different ways. Fail
Packaging serves a lot of purposes, and would be hard to do without. Packaging protects the goods during transport, saves costs, informs about the product, and extends its durability. A transport package is required to be strong and lightweight in order to be cost effective. Furthermore, it should be recycled because of environmental and economical concerns. Corrugated board has all of these featu
We evaluate the capability of the global atmospheric transport model TM5 to simulate the boundary layer dynamics and associated variability of trace gases close to the surface, using radon (222Rn). Focusing on the European scale, we compare the boundary layer height (BLH) in the TM5 model with observations from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Admnistration (NOAA) Integrated Global Radiosonde
The forces of globalization and the enabling characteristics of internet communication have impacted the nature of research and innovation. Knowledge and innovation processes are both more dispersed and more openly accessible. In addition, we witness a shift in the global knowledge and innovation geography with both being increasingly generated and developed in regions outside Europe, North Americ

Whole blood is rich in information about the physical state of an individual and is routinely used in a variety of clinical and research applications. In this thesis, the use of a microfluidic technique called acoustophoresis for separation of different blood components is explored. Acoustophoresis uses an ultrasonic standing wave field to manipulate cells in a microfluidic device. Cells within th
The French court dress Le grand habit, worn at many European courts during the 18th century, was introduced in Sweden in the 1740’s by the crown princess Lovisa Ulrika, sister to Fredric II of Prussia. The robe de cour remained the official ceremonial dress for women at the Swedish court until Gustavus III launched the Swedish National Costume in 1778. The four robes de cour preserved in the Royal
In laser-wakefield acceleration (LWFA), a femtosecond laser pulse is tightly focused in a gas to intensities exceeding 1018 W/cm2 . The laser radiation ionizes the medium and excites a plasma wave that travels behind the laser pulse. Electrons can be trapped in the oscillations in the plasma density, where electric fields of the order of several hundreds of GV/m accelerate them to relativistic ene
The global society is dependent on transportation to function and a big part of these transports are driven by an internal combustion engine. Heavy-duty vehicles utilizes conventional diesel combustion is a combustion concept where the fuel is often ignited during the injection event and while it gives a high combustion efficiency, the combustion mode is also characterized by high emission of NOx
