The global steel industry is a complex socio-technical system of strategicimportance, producing close to 10 percent of global emissions. Decarbonizing thissystem will significantly impact energy use, supply chain configurations, andinternational competitiveness, with geopolitical implications. Governments acrossthe world are therefore turning towards industrial policy to accelerate atransformation
Den svenska djurskyddslagstiftningen slår fast att djur har en rad olika in- tressen och behov som ska beredas skydd. Samtidigt har djur i alla tider be- traktats som objekt i rättslig mening och har till skillnad från rättssubjekt inte kunnat inneha intressen och rättigheter. Den här uppsatsen undersöker hur sagda ordning växt fram genom historien och vilka implikationer den har för hur djurskyddThe Swedish animal welfare legislation states that animals have interests and needs that must be protected. However, throughout history, animals have been regarded as objects in legal terms, lacking the capacity to hold in- terests and rights. This essay explores the historical development of said or- der and its implications for how animal welfare interests are represented in Swedish administrati
Uppsatsen behandlar frågan om det i svensk rätt finns ett humanitärt undantag från straffbarheten vid människosmuggling och organiserande av människosmuggling. Att något sådant undantag skulle finnas stöds inte av bestämmelsernas ordalydelse men däremot av vissa uttalanden i förarbeten och praxis. Det sägs på flera ställen i både förarbeten och praxis att den inte är straffbart att av endast ideelIn this thesis it is investigated if there, in the Swedish legislation, is a humanitarian exception concerning punishability in human smuggling and organization of human smuggling. That such an exception exists is not supported by the letter of the law but of certain statements in the preparatory work and the case law. It is said in both preparatory work and the case law that it is not punishable
Konstruktiv länkning, studentaktivitet och föreläsningar är tre grundstenar i högre utbildning. Men föreläsningen som undervisningsform har kritiserats: ”Det finns gott om högskolepedagogisk litteratur som förklarar varför föreläsningen är olämplig för att stimulera lärande. Ändå fortsätter vi föreläsa”, skriver Andreas Håkansson (2017, s. 40) i en artikel som trots allt landar i att denna undervi
This article explores lesson enactments as co-constitutive of human-technology relationality in everyday schooling, rather than neutral backdrops for educational activities. In doing so, the article introduces maintenance as its key concept, drawing on insights from maintenance studies and actor-network theory (ANT). Being both theoretically and empirically informed, maintenance means reconsiderinThis article explores lesson enactments as co-constitutive of human-technology relationality in everyday schooling, rather than neutral backdrops for educational activities.

In developing EnergyNet we have leveraged and are extending lessons from telecom's shift from a centralized, circuit-switched phone system to decentralized, packet-switched data networks. EnergyNet utilizes 1) an Energy Router that enforces galvanic separation and utilizes software-controlled energy flows over a DC backplane, 2) Energy Local and Wide Area Networks (ELAN/EWAN) based on DC microgridIn developing EnergyNet we have leveraged and are extending lessons from telecom's shift from a centralized, circuit-switched phone system to decentralized, packet-switched data networks.

Radio Frequency Integrated Circuits (RFICs) play a crucial role in modern wireless communica- tion systems. However, they can achieve high performance only when their internal registers are dynamically and precisely configured. To maintain reliable control while operating in complex multi-antenna environments, several interface techniques have been developed, among which the Serial Peripheral Inte
Background: Current research addressing recovery and everyday occupations among individuals with severe mental illness tends to focus on people of working age, whereas those aging with such conditions receive little attention. Whether younger and older users of mental health services differ regarding how they perceive their everyday occupations, personal recovery and quality of life seems unknown.
The Chinese population is rapidly aging, which has brought challenges for the elderly support system. Until very recently, only urban employees were eligible to receive a pension, while the rural elderly were forced to rely on income from their own labor and support from their family. In these circumstances, it is unsurprising that the rural elderly were most likely to fall into poverty. The recen
Background: Neuropsychiatric symptoms (NPS) are very common in patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and Alzheimer's disease (AD) dementia and are associated with various disadvantageous clinical outcomes including a negative impact on quality of life, caregiver burden, and accelerated disease progression. Despite growing evidence of the efficacy of (non)pharmacological interventions to re
Understanding the relationships between biodiversity and land-use is a key element for the development of effective conservation strategies. We studied a mid-altitude steppe-like area of Southern France, the Causse de Sauveterre, that has been grazed for many centuries. The decrease of human population during the 20th century, particularly since the end of 2nd World War, and the ongoing changes in
Diabetes mellitus is a group of diseases characterized by chronic hyperglycemia. Women who develops hyperglycemia for the first time during pregnancy receive the diagnosis gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). Presently, there is no consensus about the diagnostic criteria for GDM. A majority of these women subsequently develop postpartum overt diabetes making it important to identify these patients
In recent years, a subgroup of B‐cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (BCP ALL) without an established abnormality (“B‐other”) has been shown to be characterized by rearrangements of ABL1 , ABL2 , CSF1R , or PDGFRB (a.k.a. ABL‐class genes). Using FISH with probes for these genes, we screened 55 pediatric and 50 adult B‐other cases. Three (6%) of the adult but none of the childhood B‐other c
Natural products have been shown to be an important source of novel compounds for the development of new drugs and pesticides. However, many biologically active natural products contain reactive functionalities that make them toxic. By modifying such reactive compounds chemically it is possible to make use of the reactivity to form novel "natural product-like" compounds and at the same time reduce
End-tidal CO2 concentration correlates with pulmonary blood flow during cardiopulmonary resuscitation and has been claimed to be a useful tool to judge the effectiveness of chest compression. A high concentration of end-tidal CO2 has been related to a better outcome. However, most authors have noticed a decrease in end-tidal CO2 concentration after administration of epinephrine, concomitant with a
Background: It has been estimated that approximately 20% of all Swedish children grow up with parents having alcohol problems, which may result in negative outcomes among these children. Therefore, most Swedish municipalities provide resources for support, but at the same time figures reveal that not even 2% receive support, mainly due to difficulties in identifying and recruiting these children i
Jag kommer med denna uppsats behandla den juridiska konflikten vid distansförsäljning av alkohol i Sverige med koncentration på det rättsfall vars utgång kan komma att förändra Sveriges alkoholpolitik ännu en gång. Sedan Sverige trädde in i EU har de kvoter på den mängd alkohol som får föras in vid så kallad resandeinförsel höjts. Idag finns inga egentliga kvoter utan mängden bestäms utifrån begre
The exclusive right to a trade mark can originate in registration or in consequence of the use which has been made of it. The term of a registered trade mark is ten years. Registration may however be renewed for further periods of ten years. The right to a trade mark originating in consequence of use is valid as long as such right can be derived from usage. Exclusive right to a Community trade mar
