In Sweden, there is a large potential in converting cold attic spaces in mid-twentieth-century multi-family buildings which offers increased housing capacity without new construction.

Svensk rätt är unik på det sättet att det är en av få rättsordningar som i dagsläget saknar ett krav på tillräknelighet. Detta har medfört att en specifik grupp av lagöverträdare, de tillfälligt sinnesförvirrade, hamnat i ett osäkert rättsläge. Uppsatsen inleds med en historisk tillbakablick, där bland annat strafflagens äldre bestämmelser samt begreppet tillfällig sinnesförvirring behandlas. DäreSweden is one of the few countries in the world that lacks a requirement of accountability, beacuse of this the legal position for a specific group of offenders, the ”temporarily insane or mentally confused”, has been left unregulated.

En huvudprincip i den svenska rättsordningen är att den vinnande parten i en rättegång ska få gottgörelse för de kostnader man haft för att tillvarata sin rätt. Har en kostnad inte varit skäligen påkallad för att tillvarata vinnande parts rätt, kan rätten komma att döma ut ett lägre belopp än vad den vinnande parten yrkat ersättning för, enligt 18 kap. 8 § rättegångsbalken (1942:740). Enligt 6 § iA key principle within Swedish civil procedural law is that the prevailing party in a trial shall be reimbursed for costs caused by the need to safeguard his rights and interests. However, under Section 8 in Chapter 18 of the Swedish Code of Judicial Proceedings (1942:740), a court may rule that the prevailing party shall not be awarded the full costs of his demand if the costs have not been reaso
Bakgrund: I bygg- och anläggningsbranschen skedde 1470 olyckor år 2018 där några även ledde till dödlig utgång (Arbetsmiljöverket, 2018).

Barnfridsbrottet infördes i svensk rätt den 1 juli 2021 och utgör alltså ett förhållandevis nytt brott. Bestämmelsen återfinns i 4 kap. 3 § brottsbalken (1962:700) (BrB) och innebär att det är straffbart att låta barn bevittna vissa i bestämmelsen angivna brott mellan närstående eller tidigare närstående personer till barnet.

Caldicellulosiruptor saccharolyticus has gained reputation as being among the best microorganisms to produce H2 due to possession of various appropriate features. The quest to develop an inexpensive cultivation medium led to determine a possible replacement of the expensive component cysteine, i.e. sulphate. C. saccharolyticus assimilated sulphate successfully in absence of a reducing agent withou
When measuring the production rates of heat and smoke of upholstered furniture the ignition source must not influence the test results. In this paper variations in the strength, application time and geometry of the ignition burner used in the furniture calorimeter are studied. Results from replicate furniture calorimeter chair test show that the burning behaviour is almost independent of the burne
In the circuits of culture there are a multitude of representations in circulation. These representations are derived from a range of media products such as guidebooks and tourist brochures. Furthermore, these media products and representations continuously converge with each other. The question, then, is what representations are contained within these converged media products. This article theref
Hesitation disfluencies after phonetically prominent stranded function words are thought to reflect the cognitive coding of complex structures. Speech fragments following the Swedish function word att ‘that’ were analyzed syntactically, and divided into two groups: one with att in disfluent contexts, and the other with att in fluent contexts. Complexity was calculated in terms of a number of measu
X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA) is an immunodeficiency caused by mutations in the gene coding for Bruton's agammaglobulinemia tyrosine kinase (BTK). A database (BTKbase) of BTK mutations has been compiled and the recent update lists 225 entries from 189 unrelated families showing 148 unique molecular events. Each patient is given a unique patient identity number (PIN). Information is included re
