Popular Abstract in Swedish Små, trådlösa och portabla apparater utgör idag en stor del av vår uppkopplade värld. Under det senaste decenniet har dock flera teknologiska framsteg lett mot en utveckling där allt från maskiner till kläder kommunicerar med varandra. Detta brukar kallas för "sakernas internet" och uppskattas involvera 50 miljarder enheter år 2020. Genom att förse dessa enheter med små
ABSTRACT The purpose of this essay is to compare the Church of Sweden’s current view on marriage with partly the marriage view of Martin Luther and partly the view held within the church in Sweden after the Reformation. The objects for my analysis is Luther’s Prelude on the Babylonian Captivity of the Church (first published 1520, my edition 1928 in Swedish), Swedish Church Ordinance of 1571 and C
Scientific summary Urban growth and recent development removes the natural land cover and replaces it with a new cover of manmade features (e.g. buildings, streets, industrial areas, commercial complexes etc.). Accordingly, the local climate of these cites has been modified by new land use and land cover alterations which has created the Urban Heat Island (UHI) phenomenon. Erbil City in northern I
Piratverksamhet är inte speciellt uppmärksammat i västvärlden – media lyfter inte upp det och det är heller inte en speciellt prioriterad punkt på politikernas agenda. Det betyder dock inte att det inte är ett stort problem. Det påverkar många, både känslomässigt och ekonomiskt, på en individnivå men också på en nationell, regional och global nivå. Problemet är komplext och har en lång historia,Piracy is not given very much attention in the western part of the world – there is not many news about it in the medias, and it is not very high prioritized on the politicians’ agenda. However, this does not indicate that it is not a problem. Piracy affects many people, at an individual level as well as at a national, regional and global level. The problem is complex and has long history, not le
Det övergripande temat för denna uppsats är inriktat mot att reda ut den komplicerade, och i doktrin väl diskuterade, lojalitetsplikten för styrelsen i ett aktiebolag. Lojalitetsplikten är inte uttryckligen lagstadgad i Aktiebolagslagen (2005:551) (ABL), dess existens erkänns dock av en majoritet i doktrin. Diskussionen i doktrin hänvisar både till regler och allmänna rättsprinciper för att bekräfThe general theme of this thesis is directed towards unravelling the complicated, and in doctrine well discussed, duty of loyalty for the board of directors in a corporate company. The duty of loyalty is not explicitly legislated in the Swedish Company Act, however the majority in Swedish doctrine recognizes its exist-ence. The discussion in doctrine refers to rules as well as general principles o
Den kinesiska populärmusikens historia sträcker sig ända till 1900-talets början och den inleds bara drygt 30 år efter den så kallade Tin Pan Alley-periodens början. Den kinesiska populärmusikens utveckling har däremot inte gått jämte den amerikanska och europeiska populärmusikens. Dess historia är relativt outforskad. Denna uppsats redogör för den kinesiska populärmusikens utveckling under 1900-t
The postmodern western society has influenced the labour market, which is now said to become increasingly similar to the contemporary consumer market. Furthermore, a new generation, Generation Y, has emerged on the labour market and contributes to this development. The changing labour market has forced companies to find new ways to develop a strong employer brand in order to attract, motivate and
Popular science Mauritania and Senegal are two countries located at the border of West Africa. Their urban population is increasing significantly since the last decades because of rural immigration and natural growth of urban population. Using GIS and remote sensing techniques, the rate of urbanized area is estimated for two coastal cities of Mauritania (Nouadhibou and Nouakchott) and for three co
Chilaw inlet, with the affiliated lagoon, is located on the west coast of Sri Lanka about 120 km north of the capital Colombo. Each year during the summer monsoon, which lasts from May to September, the inlet closes due to a sand spit forming across the inlet. The closure results in impeded access to the sea for the fishermen, who use the lagoon as anchorage for their boats, and in deteriorated wa
In the European Union (EU) policymakers are faced with many challenges in national corporate taxation policy from globalization, in particular the increasing cross-border mobility of capital. The EU member countries have become a highly integrated single market and this has meant that trade and investment flows are highly sensitive to corporate tax rates. Corporate tax rates have fallen over the l
Most previous studies about fertility knowledge and attitudes among men have been based on quantitative methods using questionnaires with fixed-choice response options. The aims of this qualitative study were to explore childless young men’s reflections on fertility and infertility through semi-structured interviews. Danish (n = 17) and Swedish (n = 12) young childless men aged between 20 and 30 y
In this paper, a parametric analysis on the main engine calibration parameters applied on gasoline Partially Premixed Combustion (PPC) is performed. Theoretically, the PPC concept permits to improve both the engine efficiencies and the NOx-soot trade-off simultaneously compared to the conventional diesel combustion. This work is based on the design of experiments (DoE), statistical approach, and i
PURPOSE: This study aimed to investigate inequality and heterogeneity in health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and to provide EQ-5D-5L population reference data for Sweden.METHODS: Based on a large Swedish population-based survey, 25,867 respondents aged 30‒104 years, HRQoL is described by sex, age, education, income, economic activity, health-related behaviours, self-reported diseases and condit
Purpose: To examine health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and supportive care needs among young adult (YA) cancer survivors up to 3 years post-diagnosis. Methods: A national cohort of individuals diagnosed at 18–39 years with breast, cervical, ovarian, or testicular cancer, lymphoma or brain tumor was approached with surveys at 1.5 (n = 1010, response rate 67%) and 3 (n = 722) years post-diagnosi
We investigate the impact of a galaxy’s merger history on its system of satellites using the new VINTERGATAN-GM suite of zoom-in hydrodynamical simulations of Milky Way-mass systems. The suite simulates five realizations of the same halo with targeted ‘genetic modifications’ of a z ≈ 2 merger, but resulting in the same halo mass at z = 0. We find that differences in the satellite stellar mass func
Context. The Li abundance observed in pre-main sequence and main sequence late-type stars is strongly age-dependent, but also shows a complex pattern depending on several parameters, such as rotation, chromospheric activity, and metallicity. The best way to calibrate these effects, and with the aim of studying Li as an age indicator for FGK stars, is to calibrate coeval groups of stars, such as op
From a cohort of 171 patients comprising 121 aggressive pituitary tumours (APT) and 50 pituitary carcinomas (PC), the clinicopathological or five-tiered classification based on tumour invasion and proliferation evaluated by at least 2 proliferative markers over the cut-offs (Ki-67 ≥3% or ≥10%, p53 positive or expressed in %, mitotic count >2%), could be applied on 43 tumours: 20 PC and 23 APT. At
Background: Secure base scripts (SBS) comprise implicit procedural expectations about the availability of significant others, and are formed early in life based on experiences with caregivers. SBS are conventionally captured via word-prompted, impersonal narratives, but as this assessment paradigm is relatively new, little is known about how it may be affected by situational mental health problems
Intresset för etablering av solcellsanläggningar på Skånes jordbruksmark har ökat kraftigt under de senaste åren i takt med stigande elpriser och den pågående omställningen till en fossilfri energiförsörjning. Samtidigt står Skåne för en stor del av Sveriges livsmedelsproduktion, vilket innebär en potentiell målkonflikt mellan två viktiga samhällsintressen; mat-och energiproduktion. En central aktThe interest in establishing ground-mounted solar power plants on farmland in southern Sweden has increased considerably during the last years, as the electricity price is increasing and the society is transitioning to reach climate targets. As Scania counts for a large part of the Swedish food supply, this leads to a potential conflict of interests between energy and food production. In the esta
Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning Arsenik finns överallt i naturen och släpps även ut genom industrier. Det är ett klassiskt gift som färgat historien, men som även använts inom medicin. Arsenik är det enda kemiska cancerogena ämne som ger hudcancer vid förtäring. Det har även använts inom industrin under en lång tid, och deponering av arsenikhaltigt material kommer att orsaka stora miljöproblem.Arsenic is present everywhere in the world. It is found in the bedrock and is discharged by industries. Differents forms of arsenic varies in toxicity, the inorganic form is much more toxic then the organic form. The inorganic form is most common in drinking water and groundwater, meanwhile the inorganic form can occasionally be found in reasonable large quantities in fish and seafood. Today milli
