Parallel computing is becoming more and more important in modern Finite Element Software. As problems grow larger, computation on a single processor may not be fast enough. To overcome this problem, one can utilize parallel programming using e.g SMP-machines or clusters. Furthermore, when local compute resources are scarce, it can be quite convenient to take advantage of non-local resources for pe
A small wind power plant connected to the grid has been modeled in Modelica/ Dymola and controlled using external controllers written in C++. The small wind power plant consists of three wind power units with a nominal power of 3kW and one grid connection interconnected with an internal DCgrid. All the controls needed for control and optimization for the operation of the individual parts in the pl
Att röra på sig är och har alltid varit en grundförutsättning för vår hälsa och välbefinnande. Dagens samhällsutveckling tyder på en allt mer stillasittande livsstil i form av arbeten, vardagsliv och fritidsaktiviteter. Bristen på fysisk aktivitet är en av de största hälsoutmaningarna idag och individers levnadsvanor har visat en konstaterad anledning till detta. Det har traditionellt sätt varit Movement is and has always been essential for our health and well-being. Today's social development indicates a more sedentary lifestyle in terms of work, everyday life and leisure time activities. The lack of physical activity is one of the biggest health challenges of today and the living habits of individuals have shown a strong reason for this. It has traditionally been the individual'
Introduction Colon cancer is one of the most common forms of cancer world wide, with an incidence of almost 1 million cases anually. Surgery is a prerequisite for cure and the majority of patients are potentially curable at diagnosis. For a surgical resection to be curative the surgeon needs to remove the tumour together with all affected regional lymph nodes. How extensive the mesenteric resecti
Background: The objective of this study was to examine the association of maternal and paternal height with pregnancy length, and with the risk of pre- and post-term birth. In addition we aimed to study whether cardiovascular risk factors could explain possible associations. Methods: Parents who participated in the Nord-Trondelag Health Study (HUNT 2; 1995-1997) were linked to offspring data from
Background: Integument-related toxicities are common during epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-targeted therapy. Panitumumab is a fully human monoclonal antibody targeting the EGFR that significantly improves progression-free survival when added to chemotherapy in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer who have wild-type (WT) KRAS tumours. Primary efficacy and tolerability results from a
This master thesis work comprises 20 academic credits (20 weeks) and was carried out in a time period beginning autumn 2004 ending early 2005 at the department of Industrial Management and Logistics under the division of Production Management at Lund Institute of Technology (LTH) in cooperation with IdeonCenter AB. The problem being investigated was how to measure the development of the new techno
This study investigates the mechanisms of (de)coding modality, focusing on the interpretation of utterances containing the modals must, may, måste, and kan. The main research question posed in this study is what enables the interlocutors to interpret modal expressions so that communicative goals are achieved. To answer this general question, Coates's (1983) study on modal contexts is initially rep
Den 1 juli 2021 trädde barnfridsbrottet i kraft och placerades i 4 kap. 3 § brottsbalken (1962:700). Den infördes för att stärka barns straffrättsliga rättigheter. I paragrafen ställs en uttömmande lista upp på grundbrott som måste blivit styrkta för att barnfridsbrottet ska bli aktuellt. Vidare krävs att gärningsmannen och offret, för grundbrottet, är närstående till barnet. Avslutningsvis i para
I och med Högsta domstolens beslut i NJA 2019 s. 802 blev den successiva relevansens princip till etablerad praxis. Den successiva relevansens princip ställer upp en turordning som domstolen måste följa vid prövningen av målets frågor. Genom 17 kap. 5 § andra stycket rättegångsbalken ges domstolen samtidigt en möjlighet att pröva en fråga särskilt, innan resten av målets frågor. Om en för målet avWith the Supreme Court's decision in NJA 2019 p. 802, the principle of successive relevance became established practice. The principle of successive relevance establishes a sequence that the court must follow when examining the issues in the case. On the other hand, Chapter 17, 5 §, second clause of the Code of Judicial Procedure allows the court to examine one issue before the rest of the iss
The focus of this master’s thesis is to evaluate the effect of reactive programming on Playtech BGT Sports content server. The effect is evaluated mainly from a performance aspect, but a development process aspect is also taken into consideration. The content server is working in real-time and is required to have low latency and high throughput of processing of data. These characteristics are impo
Testamentet uppstod i Sverige på 1200-talet, som resultatet av kyrkligt inflytande. Testamentsrätten, som idag finns i ärvdabalken, har formats långsamt sedan dess. Först på 1930-talet fick testamentet sin nuvarande form i testamentslagen. Enligt gällande rätt utgörs ett ordinärt testamente av en skriftlig handling som undertecknats av testatorn och bevittnats av två vittnen. Vid nödfall eller sjuThe Swedish will first appeared in Sweden during the 13th century as a result of the church’s influence. The law of wills, a part of the Swedish inheritance code, is the result of an evolution extending from the 13th century into the 1930’s when the will was given its current form prescribed by law. An ordinary will requries a written document, signed by the testator and witnessed by two wittnesse
A multi-disciplinary study is being carried out on recharge to the Karoo sandstone aquifer in the western part of Zimbabwe, where recharge is controlled by the presence of a thick, confining basalt layer. The aquifer is geographically extensive, and has been identified throughout the southern part of the mid-Zambezi basin (Fig. 1). The potential for groundwater abstraction seems to be huge. The ke
This thesis explore how the balance of a packaging standardisation and adaptation strategy, from a distribution and sales perspective on different markets, can satisfy the markets needs and increase sales. An inductive approach has been used as well as the thesis is both explorative and explanatory. Since the authors wanted to find a broader perspective and analysing secondary data, the following
This thesis investigates the development of labor market policies directed at immigrants in Sweden, during the period of 1968-2010. The theoretical framework is built around three distinct ideas concerning the concept of citizenship – one libertarian, one empowering and a last one called caring, in the sense that it emphasizes the responsibility of society. My material consists of government publi
Nationals of Member States, including companies and firms that are formed in accordance with the laws of a Member State, are granted the right to freedom of establishment through Art 43 and 48 in the EC Treaty. However, as the legal situation appears today, this freedom of establishment is restricted. In accordance with the freedom of establishment, natural persons are entitled to incorporate comp
Våldtäkter diskuteras ofta och i många olika sammanhang. Många, främst unga kvinnor, utsätts årligen på något sätt för sexualbrott. Majoriteten är mildare brott men de senaste 40 åren har antalet anmälda våldtäkter tiodubblats och under samma tid har antalet som fälls för våldtäkter i stort sett varit detsamma. Våldtäkter väcker ofta starka känslor och effekten mildras inte av att det då och då kRape is often discussed and in many different contexts. Every year, many women are exposed to sexual offenses. The majority are milder crimes but in the past 40 years the number of reported rapes has doubled tenfold, meanwhile the number of convictions has stayed the same. Rape is a topic that raises strong emotions and the effect is not alleviated by the cases where the perpetrators are acquitted
Gemensamt för alla människor är att vi någon gång måste konfronteras med döden och dess rättsverkningar. Antingen går en släkting till oss bort eller så är det vi själva som har vår bortgång nära förestående. Syftet med denna uppsats är att få ökad kunskap om hur grunderna i den legala arvsordningen skiljer sig åt mellan Sverige och Danmark i olika familjekonstellationer. Utgångspunkten är följandOne day we all must face death and its legal consequences. It is either in our own near future, or a relative may pass away. The aim with this thesis is to learn about the fundamental differences in inheritance law between Sweden and Denmark in different family constellations. The thesis is based on these constellations: Married couples with joint children, married couples with children from a pre
The vast majority of contemporary literature and research disregards the impact of entrepreneurship within a tourist destination for overcoming seasonality. Therefore, our research focuses on, “exploring the contextual conditions for entrepreneurship in overcoming seasonality within travel destinations.” We have used a comparative research design, which we have applied to our two selected cases, I
Production of risks has emerged as one dominating process of contemporary society, and consciousness towards risk is increasing continuously. Travelling being a common practice in today’s society suggests that also participation in travel entails increasing risk, and that risk perceptions are inevitable part of the tourism experience. Therefore, the study aims at finding out what kind of risk perc
