The objectives of this activity were to propose a number of alternative HMI solutions (visual, auditory and haptic) for the concept of Safe Speed and Safe Distance and to carry out a pre-screening procedure with a number of test persons in order to give recommendations for the alternative building elements of the SASPENCE “warning-package” consisting of the combination of these modes to be tested

In the autumn of 1993 the subject of free trade in visual media was brought into the public eye as never before, at least within the European Union.

Secondary aims were to compare mortality rates over time and between surgical treatment methods. Methods: Patients

The aim of this nationwide study was to determine the familial risks of concordant (same disease in proband and exposed relative) and dis

Bark beetle population dynamics is thought to be primarily driven by bottom-up forces affecting insect performance and host tree resistance. Although there are theoretical predictions and empirical evidences that predation and parasitism may play an important role in driving bark beetle population fluctuations, long-term studies testing the role of both biotic and abiotic controls on population dy

Car sharing as an idea challenges the prevailing mobility regime in the global north that has been built around private vehicle ownership. Well established regimes such as this, over time generate norms and collect actors that become dependent on the private car as the dominant form of mobility. These norms and actors, whose very existence is at times contingent on upholding the current socio-tech

Homosexuella par fick möjlighet till juridiskt föräldraskap 2003 som en följd av den statliga utredningen SOU 2001:10 Barn i homosexuella familjer. När ett kvinnligt samkönat par genomgår en insemination inom den svenska offentligt finansierade sjukvården kan föräldraskapet för den kvinna som inte föder barnet fastställas genom dom eller bekräftelse.

När företag använder sig av leverantörer i andra delar av världen kan det inträffa brott mot vad som ofta uppfattas som grundläggande etiska normer. Exempelvis kan det förekomma dåliga arbetsvillkor, barnarbete och miljöförstöring. Eftersom rättssystemen i vissa av dessa länder inte lyckas förebygga dessa kränkningar av bland annat mänskliga rättigheter, placeras ansvaret i stället på företagen. FAs corporations are using suppliers in different parts of the world, crimes against what may be regarded as central ethical norms can occur. As an example, there can be cases of sweated labour, child labour and pollution. As the judicial systems in some countries fail to prevent such crimes against, inter alia, human rights, responsibility is instead placed on the companies. NGO:s, media and the e

Europeiska unionen syftar till att skapa fri handel på en inre marknad. Det innebär en fri rörlighet av bland annat varor. Med varor avses alla materiella ting, vilket även inkluderar avfall. Handel med avfall mellan Europeiska unionen och tredje länder är också vanligt förekommande. Anledningen till att handel bedrivs med avfall är att vissa avfallskategorier fungerar som insatsvaror i produktionThe European Union aims to create free trade on an internal market. Among other things, this means free movement of goods. Goods are defined as all material things, which also include waste. Trade in waste between the European Union and third countries is also common. The reason for trading in waste is that certain waste categories act as inputs in the production of other goods and products. A com

BACKGROUND: It remains unclear why cool temperatures cause more persistent adverse health effects compared to hot weather. Fluid homeostasis may constitute a causal link between past temperatures and adverse health effects. In this study we investigated the association between past outdoor temperatures and current fluid homeostasis.METHODS: We studied participants from five cohorts during three de
