This report summarises the results of a thesis work performed at Lund University, Faculty of Engineering (LTH) in association with Volvo Car Corporation (VCC) in the autumn of 2010 through the winter of 2011. The task is to develop a system to mount a bright trim on a vehicles bodyside. A bright trim is a polished metal trim that is fitted around the windows of a vehicle for aesthetical reasons. T

1. Measurements of membrane capacitance, as an indicator of exocytosis, and intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) were used to determine the Ca2+ dependence of secretion in single pancreatic B-cells. 2. Exocytosis was dependent on a rise in [Ca2+]i and could be evoked by activation of voltage-dependent Ca2+ currents. The threshold for depolarization-induced release was 0.5 microM [Ca2+]i. Onc

The Swedish public library was founded in the years when the society in Sweden went from being a society of agriculture to industrialism. Modernism was sweeping over the country, everything was possible, which influenced the new society that was built. Now Sweden was going to be a true democracy with responsible and empathic citizens. One of the main tools in this process was to educate people, to

When initiating the research for my graduate paper I had a rather straightforward intent in mind. It was to determine if the research being conducted in the bio-health related field was negatively affected by the patent system. If the research was delayed by the patent system I wanted to apprehend why. I came to the conclusion that over the years the sphere where the exchange of intellectual prope

This chapter aims to discuss the phenomenon of altering the telos of a treaty by changing the focus of its object and purpose through treaty implementation. To examine the consequences in international law of altering the telos of a treaty, this contribution uses the example of the 2017 Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons (TPNW) against the backdrop of the considerations regarding a possi

The research presented in this thesis is primarily focused on experimental investigations of laser-driven ion acceleration from solid targets via the target normal sheath acceleration mechanism. In particular, ways of optimizing the absorption of the laser pulse energy by free plasma electrons in the target, or modifying the shape of the accelerating electron sheath were addressed. The aim of this

Background: EU workers exposed to hand-arm vibration should be offered health surveillance to detect early symptoms, and findings, of Hand-Arm Vibration Syndrome (HAVS). To execute the mandatory vocational rehabilitation, the employer needs to be aware of injuries found in the medical check-up. We aimed to analyse: 1) How physicians graded the neurosensory component of HAVS on the Stockholm Worksh

In boreal summer, circumglobal Rossby waves can promote stagnating weather systems that favor extreme events like heat waves or droughts. Recent work showed that amplified Rossby wavenumber 5 and 7 show phase-locking behavior which can trigger simultaneous warm anomalies in different breadbasket regions in the Northern Hemisphere. These types of wave patterns thus pose a potential threat to human

Objectives:This thesis aims to provide an overview of the epidemiology of AAV in southern Sweden, to evaluate different classification criteria in AAV. In addition we study if infection is a risk factor for later development of AAV comparing patients with AAV with a matched population cohort and to examine the occurrence of severe infections as an outcome in AAV. Methods:All adult patients diagnos

Road verges can harbour a diversity of flowering plants and may be useful foraging habitats for pollinating insects in landscapes where flower-rich habitats are scarce. Targeted management of road verges can further enhance flower abundance, thereby potentially benefitting flower-visiting insects. However, traffic on the adjacent road could pose a risk, such that flower-rich road verges instead ac

This report addresses the traffic situation at Lilla Fiskaregatan in Lund, Sweden, where vulnerable road users move together in a space perceived as unsafe and which can make you feel insecure as a road user. In terms of traffic, the street is characterized by a lot of pedestrians and cyclist, having different intentions of walking on or travelling through the street. The street’s eventual problem

The aim of this thesis is to study how the ideal middle-class femininity was constructed through fashion in late 19th century Sweden. Fashion have often been studied through the construction of gender, but this study aspires to show how fashion history also can be enriched when combined with closely related fields such as history of the body and of women’s morality. The theoretical framework is co

I uppsatsen undersöks frågan i vilken utsträckning skyldigheten att inte erkänna medför begränsningar för EU:s förbindelser, såsom handel, med entiteter som EU är skyldig att inte erkänna. EU är skyldig att iaktta folkrätten i dess helhet inklusive den skyldighet att inte erkänna som följer av internationell sedvanerätt och som är bindande för unionens institutioner. I uppsatsen hävdas att handel This thesis examines the extent to which the obligation of non-recognition limits EU engagement, such as trade, with entities which the EU is obliged not to recognise. The EU is bound to observe international law in its entirety, including the obligation of non-recognition which as a customary rule of international law is binding upon its institutions. However, this thesis argues that trade with u
