The Faculty of Law is foundedThe history of the Faculty of Law goes back to the period of the Swedish Empire. When Lund University was founded in 1666 – ten years after the province of Skåne was ceded to Sweden through the Treaty of Roskilde – it also acquired a Faculty of Law. In accordance with the understanding of law at the time, the faculty got its motto, Suum cuique [tribuere], [give] unto e

The disaccharide trehalose stabilizes proteins against unfolding, but the underlying mechanism is not well understood. Because trehalose is preferentially excluded from the protein surface, it is of interest to examine how trehalose modifies the structure and dynamics of the solvent. From the spin relaxation rates of deuterated trehalose and (17)O-enriched water, we obtain the rotational dynamics
Large eddy simulations of natural convection along a vertical isothermal surface have been carried out using a parallel CFD code SMAFS (Smoke Movement And Flame Spread) developed by the first author to study the dynamics of the natural convection flow and the associated convective heat transfer, with sub-grid scale turbulence modeled using the Smagorinsky model. In the computation, the filtered go
The secondary clarifier or settler is crucial for the whole activated sludge operation. Consequently, it is important to obtain a reliable analytical model as well as a useful numerical method, which can be used in the automatic control of the settling process. Discontinuities (shocks) appear physically, and an analytical description as well as a stable numerical algorithm must be able to handle t
The characteristics of fine time-scale rainfall are important in many hydrological applications, such as infiltration, erosion and flooding. The spatial properties of such rainfall are, however, seldom known, especially for arid and semi-arid areas. A better knowledge of fine time-scale rainfall and also comparison with daily rainfall may yield possibilities for disaggregation. For this purpose, r
Today’s presence of sport in the everyday lives of the majority of the world population has recently led development actors to promote sport as a potential vehicle for social change. At the forefront of this new discourse is the notion of sport as a universal language that unites people across the globe. Whereas sport organizations in the Global South apply participation in sports as a tool for in
Efterfrågan på sockerrör har de senaste åren ökat i takt med att fler länder strävar efter att minska sitt beroende av fossila bränslen. Som en följd har antalet sockerrörsodlingar kraftigt ökat i Brasilien vilket medfört en oro inför vilka effekter denna omvandling av ursprunglig mark till sockerrörsodling har på lokala hydrologin och klimatet. I det här arbetet har påverkan av sockerrörs expanThe demand for sugarcane has increased in recent years as more countries desire to reduce its dependence of fossil fuels. Therefore, the number of sugarcane plantations has rapidly increased in Brazil which raises concerns for what effect these conversion of original land to sugarcane plantations have on local hydrology and climate. In this thesis, the effects of sugarcane expansion on surface ru
Environmental management intend to help organizations improve their environmental performance but have suffered criticism for placing too great a focus on the system rather than on the environmental performance. The purpose of this study is to evaluate how Capio St Göran's Hospital emergency department works on reducing its negative environmental impact regarding the environmental aspects supp
Background and aims After resection and repair of the intestines, tissue degradation leads to weakening of the repair site and risk of postoperative leakage. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are thought to be responsible for collagenolysis in the direct vicinity of surgical sutures in many tissues. Several experimental studies show that MMP inhibitors administered systemically alleviate postoperat
Global extinction of a species is sadly irreversible. At a local scale, however, extinctions may be followed by re-invasion. We here show that this is not necessarily the case and that an ecological community may close its doors for re-invasion of species lost from it. Previous studies of how communities are assembled have shown that there may be rules for that process and that limitations are set
The present multidisciplinary study examined nigrostriatal dopamine and striatal amino acid transmission in the R6/1 line of transgenic Huntington's disease (HD) mice expressing exon 1 of the HD gene with 115 CAG repeats. Although the number of tyrosine hydroxylase-positive neurons was not reduced and nigrostriatal connectivity remained intact in 16-week-old R6/1 mice, the size of tyrosine hydroxy
Fischer-Tropsch (FT) synthesis is an important process to manufacture hydrocarbons and oxygenated hydrocarbons from mixtures of carbon monoxide and hydrogen (syngas). The catalysis process occurs on, for example, cobalt metal surfaces at elevated temperatures and pressures. A fundamental understanding of the reduction pathway of supported cobalt oxides, and the intermediate species present during
The aim of this paper is to study rate-dependent switching in ferroelastic materials. More specifically, a micro-mechanically motivated model is embedded into an iterative three-dimensional and electromechanically coupled finite element framework. An established energy-based criterion serves for the initiation of domain switching processes as based on reduction in (local) Gibbs free energy. Subseq
This thesis is about whether Swedish immigrants are to be considered politically empowered or not. The term politically empowered refers to a state where individuals have the capabilities and possibilities to effectively change their situation via the established democratic system. My conclusion is that political empowerment is not yet a reality within ethnic minority groups. In decision making ar
The purpose of this thesis is to investigate the practical understanding of distributed leadership in knowledge intensive firms, and what characteristics within the organization that affect this process. During the last two decades the society has undergone a range of economic and social changes where companies have gradually shifted towards a more decentralized and horizontal organization, which
The purpose of this study is to examine and compare approaches to explain the geographic differences in voter support for the radical right populist (RRP) party Sverigedemokraterna (the Swedendemocrats) in the Swedish public parliamentary elections in 2010. This is done with a comparative, theory testing research design, comparing 50 Swedish municipalities with exceptional results for Sverigedemok
Background: Welfare projects using applications of Information and Communications Technology (ICT) have proven to deliver significant results in a cost efficient way. Despite this a strong majority of project still fail to sustain once the initial welfare resources are depleted. Purpose: The purpose of this thesis is to identify applications of ICT that can be valuable for society and at the same
In Political Science a main theory is that a minimal winning coalition (MWC) will participate in the government. The parties included have to share the power of government. Therefore the winning coalition to be expected is the one including the fewest parties possible. My paper will atempt to examine if this is the main pattern in Swedish municipalities. My experience indicates that the ?Alliance
