A steady state conjugate conduction-convection investigation is performed on vertical plate fin in which a small heat source is located. Heat from the fin surface is transferred to the surroundings by laminar natural convection. The governing equations for the problem are the heat conduction equation for the fin and the boundary layer equations, which are continuity, momentum and energy equations,
The Baltic See in general and the basin of the Baltic Proper in particular, has in the last decades severely been plagued by the effects of eutrophication caused by abundant flows of the nutrient substances phosphorus and nitrogen. This study has been concentrating on the Swedish load of phosphorus to the Baltic Proper and the measures available for reducing this load. This being a field where sur
Europeiska unionens (EU) huvudmålsättning är att fri rörlighet av varor, personer, tjänster och kapital ska råda inom unionen. Rättsenigheten inom EU har dock brister och det har observerats att det för en väl fungerande inre marknad hade varit behjälpligt med harmonisering av medlemsstaternas civillagstiftning. För detta ändamål har Europeiska kommissionen initierat utformningen av en gemensam reOne of the main goals of the European Union (EU) is to guarantee the free movement of goods, capital, services and people. Divergences in national contract laws are seen as an impediment to this free movement. To overcome this hurdle scholars clearly suggest that the internal market would benefit if the EU had harmonized the private law. The European Commission (EC) has therefore initiated the cre
A readily releasable pool (RRP) of granules has been proposed to underlie the first phase of insulin secretion. In the present study we combined electron microscopy, insulin secretion measurements and recordings of cell capacitance in an attempt to define this pool ultrastructurally. Mouse pancreatic B-cells contain approximately 9,000 granules, of which 7% are docked below the plasma membrane. Th
A short or otherwise suboptimal neck precludes the use of endovascular repair in 30% to 50% of patients with abdominal aortic aneurysms. Stent-graft fixation in an unsuitable neck carries the risk of technical failure owing to development of a proximal endoleak or stent-graft migration. Furthermore, in some patients, the neck dilates postoperatively. Endovascular healing with tissue incorporation
Objective: To explore the direct and Indirect costs in a cohort of 225 risperidone-treated patients with schizophrenia followed up annually during 5 years. Method: Data on costs for medication, hospitalization, sheltered living and productivity losses, as well as degree of social isolation, were collected. Results: The direct costs were dominated by hospitalization and sheltered living expenses, w
Diabetes and obesity have long been known to be related. The recently characterized adipocyte hormone resistin (also called FIZZ3/ADSF) has been implicated as a molecular link between impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) and obesity in mice. A search for sequence variants at the human resistin locus identified nine single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) but no coding variants. An investigation into th
Skatteflykt är ett problem för många av världens suveräna stater. Det finns olika metoder för att bemöta problemet, vanligast är att en stat väljer att instifta en lagstiftning med en generalklausul eller att genom praxis utveckla riktlinjer för när en transaktion skall anses vara skatteflykt. I Sverige och Australien har lagstiftarna valt att genom generalklausuler försöka bekämpa skatteflykt. SyTax avoidance is an issue for many of the sovereign states of the world. Different methods are used in different countries to combat tax avoidance, the most common forms of anti-avoidance measure is either using legislation consisting of a general anti-avoidance rule or using case law to develop general guidelines for when a transaction should be considered tax avoidance. In Sweden and Australia t
Denna uppsats syftar till att utreda vilken betydelse erkännandet har i brottmålsprocessen i Sverige. Uppsatsens fyra frågeställningar utgör ramen, och innefattar såväl en allmän del om bevisprövning som en djupdykning i erkännandets prövning och styrka som bevis. I uppsatsen används huvudsakligen rättsdogmatisk metod. Dock görs även en undersökning av sex omtalade tingsrättsdomar för att se hur pThis essay aims to study the importance of confessions in Swedish criminal law procedure. The essay consists of a general overview of the court’s evaluation of evidence as well as an examination of how the courts perceive confessions and the strength of a confession as evidence. Six renowned district court rulings have been analyzed to see how the law is applied. Since this area is largely unregul
Our interest for this subject was awakened by the complexity with teachers having to report their students for being physically or psychically abused or neglected at home. Our aim in this study has been to discover junior school teachers’ idea on the mandatory reporting law between schools and social services in Sweden. Due to this purpose, interviews have been made with six junior school teachers
The aim of this study is to utilize a qualitative content analysis in order to examine the stories of twelve childfree women featured in the anthology "Nobody's Mother" [translated title] (2013). When designing this study we have focused on the reasons to why these women have chosen not to have any children and how they experience social expectations related to motherhood. Swedish we
This essay develops a theory for the explanation of the diffrences in succes of Radical Right Populist Parties in Western Europe. In order to create a succesfull radical right populist movement and thus a succesfull radical right populist party, three elements are needed; ?demand?, ?supply? amd ?mobilisation?. Because the creation of a radical right populist movement is different than the creatio
We address the problem of insufficient quality of robot simulators to produce precise sensor readings for joint positions, velocities and torques. Realistic simulations of sensor readings are particularly important for real time robot control laws and for data intensive Reinforcement Learning of robot movements in simulation. We systematically construct two architectures based on Long Short-Term M
We describe the new version (v3.06h) of the code HFODD that solves the universal nonrelativistic nuclear DFT Hartree-Fock or Hartree-Fock-Bogolyubov problem by using the Cartesian deformed harmonic-oscillator basis. In the new version, we implemented the following new features: (i) zero-range three- and four-body central terms, (ii) zero-range three-body gradient terms, (iii) zero-range tensor ter

Data from NASA's Kepler space telescope, which searches for exoplanets via the transit method, produced 1108 new planetary candidates in 2013 with a total of 91% being smaller than Neptune in size. These were mostly super-Earths, terrestial planets between Earth and Neptune in size, with orbits around 10 days. In order for any theory of planet formation to be valid it must be able to account
Ecologists are now widely utilising video data to quantify the behaviours and interactions of animals in the wild. This process can be facilitated by collecting videos in stereo, which can provide information about animals' positions, movements and behaviours in three-dimensions (3D). However, there are no published designs that can collect underwater 3D stereo data at high spatial and temporal re
