Technology utilisation and implementation of new technologies are critical success factors for humanitarian supply chains and the possibility to improve humanitarian operations by the use of technology has been gaining increasing attention, especially since the 2010 Haiti earthquake. Despite this increase, the theory on emerging technologies within the humanitarian supply chain is still very limit
I början av 1800-talet fanns det ingen lagstadgad rätt för mannen att bruka mildare fysiskt våld mot sin hustru, men inte heller något förbud. Det hade fram till 1734 års lag varit tillåtet, så länge hon inte fick synliga skador. Våld i nära relation är ett nutida begrepp och inte något som diskuterades eller användes på 1800-talet. Begreppet har använts i uppsatsen i syfte att studera vilka handlIn the early 19th century, there was no statutory right for a man to use milder physical violence against his wife, but no prohibition. It had been allowed until the 1734 law, as long as she did not receive visible injuries. Violence in close relationship is a contemporary concept and not something that was discussed or used in the 19th century. The term has been used in the paper in order to stud
The large-scale expansion of wind energy is an important element of the energy transition in Germany and a necessary tool to mitigate climate change. Yet, it is contested in many rural settings across the country. This thesis builds on the argument that rural areas are a crucial factor for the energy transition. They serve as the sites that host most of the infrastructure needed in the transition
The shelf life of milk is amongst others dependent on the size of the oil droplets. These droplets can be measured using the laser diffraction (LD) technique. LD is a popular technique to measure particle size distributions (PSD) that has an outstanding broad measuring range capability, is easy-to-use and has a high reproducibility. While this technique is extremely popular, there are some conditi
Entreprenader avser i regel omfattande, komplicerade arbeten vilka pågår under en längre tid med flertalet inblandade parter. Därutöver en förhållandena runt arbetet och arbetsplatsen sällan särskilt förutsägbara. För att en entreprenad ska bli praktiskt genomförbar måste samtliga parters tidsplaner samordnas på ett erforderligt sätt. Om en entreprenörs tidsplan senare visar sig vara ohållbar kommConstruction projects usually refer to extensive, complicated work which is ongoing for a long time with the multiple parties involved. In addition, conditions around work and the workplace are rarely particularly predictable. For a Construction Project to be practically feasible, all parties' schedules must be coordinated in the required manner. If an entrepreneur's schedule later proves
Var och en som anklagas för brott ska enligt Europakonventionen tillförsäkras rätten till en rättvis rättegång samt rätten att betraktas som oskyldig fram till dess att motsatsen bevisats. Genom denna oskyldighetspresumtion ska den tilltalade i en brottmålsrättegång inte behöva bevisa sig fri och har därför även rätten att vara tyst. Som en konsekvens av oskyldighetspresumtionen är det därför åklaAccording to the European Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms, everyone accused of a crime must be guaranteed the right to a fair trial and the right to be presumed innocent until proven guilty. Due to the presumption of innocence, the accused in a criminal trial should not have to prove his or her innocence and therefore also has the right to remain silent. As a
The studies on female representation in the political sphere have for a long time been at the center of understanding how the feminization of politics can contribute to many different areas in politics. Whether it is about female politicians as role models or their contribution to efficient peacebuilding, the studies all aim to understand and explain the importance of female presence. Sweden as a
Med förklaringsbörda avses det förhållandet att den tilltalade underlåter att lämna en förklaring till en viss omständighet och att detta får en för denne oförmånlig bevisverkan. Den laga grunden för att ålägga den tilltalade en förklaringsbörda återfinns dels i RB 35 kap. 1 §, enligt vilken domstolen har att fritt bevisvärdera allt som förekommit i målet, dels i 35 kap. 4 §, enligt vilken domstolThe burden of explanation refers to the situation where the accused omits to explain a given circumstance, which as a result affects the evidentiary effect unfavorably. The legal basis for imposing a burden of explanation on the accused is found in Chapter 35, Section 1 and 4 of the Swedish Code for Judicial Procedure. Section 1 states that the court is free to evaluate everything that has occurre
In most projects, there is a need to visualize geographic data in a map and in most cases, this is done in an interactive map on a computer, tablet or mobile phone. To be able to publish geographic data on the web, several components are needed. These components are in many cases purchased with a user license from a company that provides the customer with support and other user instructions. An al
Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) är en benämning på ett högkvalitativt kollektivtrafiksystem som utvecklades under mitten av 1900 – talet och blev känt efter att det framgångsrikt implementerades i staden Curitiba i Brasilien. I Sverige används BRT som ett komplement till övrig kollektivtrafik medan det i stora städer runt om i världen fungerar som stommen i kollektivtrafiksystemet. För BRT i Sverige finnsBus Rapid Transit (BRT) is a name for a high – quality public transport system that was developed in the middle of the 19th century and became known after it was successfully implemented in the city of Curitiba in Brazil. In Sweden, BRT is used as a complement to other public transport, while in large cities around the world it functions as the frame of the public transport system. For BRT in Swed
The IPCC states that the planet is significantly warming due to effects of climate change. This warming effect has consequences for phenological events. Many species cannot track rapid climate change, resulting in phenological mismatches. This study looks at an extreme weather event and the longer-term effects of climate change. According to the IPCC, extreme weather is linked to climate change. T
This thesis focuses on the experiences of Christian women in the Netherlands regarding their religion, faith and daily lives – especially within the (envisioned) family. Through Bible study discussions and individual interviews, 11 women shared how they navigated the traditional systems at work within each of these spheres, how they negotiated their own understandings of each and how they would ch
In today’s technology-driven classrooms, maintaining student focus is increasingly challenging. This study investigates the impact of "Focus room", a digital tool developed by Trelson, designed to reduce digital distractions and support sustained attention during class. Through an observational study in a Swedish school, four 8th grade student classes were observed before and during the
Global agri-food systems are in urgent need of a sustainability transformation guided by best practices of agroecology. The study used the Tool for Agroecological Performance Evaluation (TAPE) to assess the performance of seven market gardens in southern Sweden in comparison to the Swedish horticultural sector. The findings indicate that all participating market gardens could be considered agroeco
Texas is the leading destination for foreign direct investment in the United States. The opening of a Swedish Consulate General in the state in 2026 underscores its growing importance for Swedish corporate expansion. Swedish presence in the state, however, is concentrated in Dallas-Fort Worth and Houston and remains thin in Austin and at the start-up and scale-up level. The Texan business landscap
