Vad står vi på – hur tar man reda på det? Kanske man kan titta på en geologisk karta, borra ett hål eller gräva en grop? Det kan gå bra, men ibland finns det inte tillräckligt detaljerade kartor och att gräva upp allt man är intresserad av är ingen lysande idé. Tänk om man kunde forska fram en metod som gör att man kan se rakt igenom marken, som röntgenundersökningar på sjukhus! På sätt och vis kaWhat would you find below your feet – how do you find out? Perhaps you could look at a geological map, drill, or dig? That could work, but sometimes the maps are not detailed enough, and digging everywhere to find out is impractical. Imagine if you could develop a method that allows you to see straight through the ground, as x–rays through the body! To some extent, such methods already exist; you

Diabetes is associated with devastating chronic complications including coronary heart disease and stroke (macrovascular complications) as well as microvascular disorders leading to damage of the small vessels and the development of retinopathy, nephropathy and neuropathy. The underlying pathogenesis is not clear, but hyperglycemia has been identified as an important risk factor. Previous work fro

Representing an international, multi-institutional research team, the panel presents a theoretical framework for understanding what prompts academic staff/faculty to change towards sustained use of pedagogies that make a meaningful difference in student learning. The theory grows out of a synthesis of literature on: the role of leadership and resources in emerging changes to teaching practices (Gi

What can we learn by transmitting electrical currents through electrodes in the ground? Geophysical methods can help us to locate the bedrock, valuable mineral ores, remains of ancient buildings and many other secrets hiding below the surface. However, it is not only the universal interest for the unknown that drives the geophysical research forward. Knowledge of, for example, fractured bedrock, c

BACKGROUND: The UN's Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are grounded in the global ambition of "leaving no one behind". Understanding today's gains and gaps for the health-related SDGs is essential for decision makers as they aim to improve the health of populations. As part of the Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study 2016 (GBD 2016), we measured 37 of the 50 health-relate

To achieve significant improvements, there is a need for a systematic approach in Road Safety Management. The first step of such approach is to define the burden of road casualties in the country. Part of defining the burden is the monetary valuation of the prevention of a fatality accident. Such “values of statistical life” are derived in a number of countries, however, there is a large variation

The Covid-19 pandemic has fundamentally changed travel patterns to and in major urban regions. Destinations have seen a dramatic shift from overtourism to undertourism. This has led to new challenges for regional destination management organisations (DMOs) as tourists and residents seek green areas in cities and visit adjacent natural reserves. Therefore this research explores how the Covid-19 pan

Products made from pulp are a part of everyday life. With end products like coffee filters, food packaging and tissue paper. These products are the result of wood being processed in pulp mills to produce the pulp from which the forementioned paper products are produced. The modern pulp and paper industry is energy intense and on a global perspective a large emitter of greenhouse gasses, accounting

This presentation focuses on a project at an early stage of development. The aim of the practice lab project is twofold: (i) to strengthen the competence among students in higher music education with regards to the topic of practice, and (ii) contribute to research on musical practice and skill acquisition. The project is conducted at Malmö Academy of Music (Lund university). Students take part in

Global climate change is characterized by increasing and differentiated exposure to climate-related hazards such as floods, landslides, avalanches, storms, and wildfires (IPCC 2018, 2022). There is a significant volume of research on the effects of such events, and over the last decade, much of this research has been directed at where most lives and values can be saved by protective measures (e.g.

The district heating sector in Sweden is today facing several challenges due to competition from other heating alternativesas well as decreasing heat demand in buildings. To increase its competitiveness, the district heating companieshave to find ways to keep their production costs at a more or less constant level. One way of doing this is to increasethe efficiency of the district heating systems.

Kolabacken är en liten gräsbevuxen kulle nära den södra spetsen av Falsterbohalvön i sydvästra Skåne. Platsen är känd som den tidigare fyrplatsen i Falsterbo där en s.k. vippfyr hjälpte fartyg att navigera längs den grunda och farliga kusten innan den nuvarande fyren byggdes år 1795. Trots Falsterbos betydelse för sjöfart och handel under medeltiden har Kolabackens uppkomst, inre uppbyggnad och hi

Reliable building performance management involves reducing energy use and peak demand while maintaining indoor comfort and operational safety. Achieving these objectives requires effective strategies across the building life cycle, from early-stage design to operation. However, the availability, quality, and structure of building data vary considerably between life cycle stages. Buildings in opera

This report investigates the possibility of implementing a high-quality, regional, rubber-wheled based public transport system with train-like features to a lower cost than that of a traditional raliway. In order to be regarded as fulfilling this goal, the system, hereafter called rubber-wheel trains, must both be similar enough to railways to be regarded as trains by the passengers – and also be

Background and issue of study: The global financial crisis, climate change, demographic changes, and rising inequality are some of the global trends that put pressure on public leaders and organizations, civil society organizations and corporations to shift to a social and environmental sustainable development. Social innovations are demanded to be both drivers of positive societal change and forc

Free movement of goods, capital, workers and services have stimulated economic and social interaction between Member States of the European Union. At the same time international trade and globalization go far beyond the scope of the EU and have a tremendous impact on various countries in the world. Capital mobility encourages companies to look for business opportunities world-wide in order to meet

Under det senaste seklet har det svenska samhället utvecklats från att ha varit ett industrisamhälle till att bli ett kunskapssamhälle. Denna utveckling har inneburit att s.k. kunskapsföretag har kommit att få en alltmer central roll i samhället. Kunskapsföretag kännetecknas av att de främst bedriver kunskapsproduktion och inte materiell produktion. Det är de anställdas kunskap som utgör kunskapsf

Uppsatsens syfte är att undersöka konkurrensklausulers utformning och verkan, med särskilt fokus på skälighetsbedömningen av sådana klausuler. I uppsatsen används en traditionell rättsvetenskaplig metod. Då rättsläget i viss mån är outrett beträffande arbetsgivarens rätt att ensidigt begränsa eller frånträda en konkurrensklausul, har empiriskt material använts gällande dessa frågeställningar. FrågThe purpose of this essay is to examine the content and effect of non-competition clauses, with a particular focus on the fairness of these clauses. To examine this a traditional legal method is used. Though some aspects are unclear regarding the legal situation concerning the right for an employer to unilaterally reduce and withdraw from a non-competition clause, interviews have been used to exam
