For the last couple of years, the popularity of e-bikes has grown substantially. Thanks to the electric motor people can now ride uphill and longer distances without arriving at their destination sweaty and exhausted. But even if the function of electric bikes is great I saw problems in the design of the bikes that are currently on the market. Problems that made them very unattractive for
High staff turnover and difficulties in recruiting and retaining experienced social workers is an ongoing dilemma in the social service child welfare. The unions request the social service offices to review the pay system and consider what social workers with long experience should reasonably earn, since the difference between the lowest and highest salaries today is small. In the public sector, i
Denna uppsats behandlar ungdomsrabatten i 29 kap. 7 § brottsbalken (1962:700). Ungdomsrabatten är en reduktion som särbehandlar unga lagöverträdare i åldrarna 15–20 år vid straffmätningen. Den unge lagöverträdaren får ett avdrag på straffet baserat på dennes ålder vid gärningstillfället. Ungdomsrabatten är sedan länge en rättstradition i Sverige, men den har under lång tid kritiserats. På senare åThis thesis addresses the reduced sentence for juveniles in Chapter 29 Section 7 of the Swedish Penal Code (1962:700). The reduced sentence for juveniles is a reduction which targets young offenders aged 15–20 years when meting out of punishment. The young offender receives a reduction of the punishment based on the age of the criminal offender at the time of the crime. The reduced sentence for ju
As the greenhouse gas emissions keep on increasing the need for solutions to help reduce emissions across all sectors has never been greater. The European Union has pointed out green hydrogen as a step in increasing the sustainability of the energy sector in Europe. Goals has been set to boost the development of hydrogen technology since the green hydrogen production today is only existing in an i
Private philanthropic foundations can be funded by the wealth of individu-als. These private foundations can focus on a certain region and its eco-nomic development. Existing Economic Geography literature has no de-fined role for such foundations in their frameworks. This empirically driven thesis aims to contribute to closing this research gap by examining the case of the Dieter Schwarz foundatio
This thesis aims to present the relationship between competition law and data protection law in the digital market. The paper illustrates the economic background that creates certain conditions for the interplay between the bodies of law. The emergence of the digital economy with platform-based business models is a challenge that cannot be tackled within a single system. Therefore, the paper prese
Dark matter accounts for about 85% of all matter in the Universe, yet its particle nature remains unknown. The Light Dark Matter eXperiment (LDMX) is a proposed fixed-target missing-momentum experiment that intends to probe the predominantly experimentally uncharted MeV-GeV mass range for "light dark matter". A significant challenge for LDMX is to efficiently veto rare photo-nuclear back
Reducing microorganisms by UV light is has been commonly used for drinking water for many years. In other liquid products like apple juice it is a rather novel application. The advantages would be that quality parameters like aromas and vitamins are less affected by the UV treatment compared to a heat treatment. Furthermore it would probably be cheaper, as the lamps need less electrical energy tha
This research has been conducted through a single case study by applying a qualitative research approach on how a university context shapes the way entrepreneurs learn in an incubator. The data was collected through semi-structured interviews and analyzed according to Gioia, Corley and Hamilton (2012). Literature regarding Entrepreneurial Learning through an Experiential and Social Learning Theory
Due to the increasing significance of moth species’ contributions to pollination, and the relatively new advancements of AI and LED within this field of study, there is interest in developing a light trap that is both easier to get a hold of and more adapted to the conditions of a northern country like Sweden. In this study I evaluate one such LED-based Light trap and compare it to a more well-tes
Automated servo systems are widely used in today’s industry. Therefore, there is high value in improving the reliability and accuracy of these systems and reducing costs. One way to achieve this is to remove the gearbox component, since it typically represents a large fraction of the system’s cost, and it contains many moving parts which will wear and eventually fail. However, removing the gearbox
Losses and damages induced by climate change are increasingly felt by communities worldwide, disproportionately affecting communities relying on subsistence agriculture. Peru is one of the countries most vulnerable to losses and damages, due to its high exposure to climatic risks and the relative vulnerability of its population. To respond to climate-driven loss, the Warsaw International Mecha
The increased awareness of the importance of sustainability has paved the way for a more climate friendly future. But at the same time, biodiversity is at risk due to overstraining practices used by forest and textile industries. Do we have to choose one or the other when ensuring a greener course of action? In this project, the aim has been to explore what can be done when combining only leftove
Gas in Scattering Media Absorption Spectroscopy (GASMAS) is a near-infrared (IR) optical spectroscopy technique showing great potential in the continuous, non-invasive monitoring of the lungs. While the feasibility of GASMAS has been proven in neonatal lung studies, applying the technique to older children and adults is challenging. The increased tissue thickness strongly attenuates the signal, ne
Utgångspunkten för uppsatsen är Svea hovrätts uppmärksammade dom i mål B 2457–23 (Swedbank-domen). Domen rörde Swedbanks tidigare vd, Birgitte Bonnesen, som dömdes för grovt svindleri på grund av att hon undanhållit information om misstänkt penningtvätt i bankens estländska verksamhet. Eftersom svindleribrottet sällan prövas i domstol har Swedbank-domen stor betydelse för hur verkställande direktöThe starting point of this thesis is the widely discussed ruling by the Svea court of Appeal in case B 2457–23 (the Swedbank-case). The case concerned Swedbank’s former chief executive officer (CEO), Birgitte Bonnesen, who was convicted of gross swindle for withholding information about suspected money laundering in the bank’s Estonian operations. Since swindle cases are rare, the Swedbank-case is
Due to climate change, emissions of greenhouse gases must be reduced rapidly and natural resources must be used more sustainably. The public sector should lead the way to a more sustainable society and healthcare has been identified as an area that contributes to large emissions. The purpose of this study was to identify measures that can be taken to reduce the climate impact of the retirement ho
In order to achieve a circular economy, EU has discussed different instruments, including lifetime labeling. Circular economy has a partial focus on reducing waste, which products with longer life reduce. This study aims to investigate the issues that are important when considering labeling systems, as if it should be mandatory or optional, if the labeling will be effective and what products it wi
In opposition to most hydrological studies in Jordan, this study examines water from an interdisciplinary perspective with a particular focus on the social component. This qualitative case study was conducted over 9 weeks from December 2019 to February 2020. Extensive data was collected from various sources, while intensive data was collected through semi-structured interviews, focus groups, and o
