The report consists of the development of the writers’ conception and implementation of the term “Driver Focus” on Scanias truck interior. The project is carried out using various different industrial design techniques
Sammanfattning Enligt ordningslagens (OL) 2 kap. 26 § ska den som anordnar en offentlig tillställning i vinstsyfte åläggas betalningsskyldighet för polismyndighetens bevakning av den. I denna uppsats behandlas bestämmelsen och dess tillämpning på de idrottsföreningar som bedrivs i bolagsform, de s.k. idrottsaktiebolagen. Besluten har varit uppe för överklaganden och diskussion sedan polisen för snSummary Under the provisions of section 2 (26) of the Swedish Public Order Act, the organizer of a profitable public event shall pay a fee to cover the police authority's expenses due to the event. This essay analyses the application of the fee on the so- called sport companies. The decisions have been subjects of appeal and discussion since the police for about three years ago started feeing
Astatine isotopes can be produced in liquid lead-bismuth eutectic targets through proton-induced double charge exchange reactions on bismuth or in secondary helium-induced interactions. Models implemented into the most common high-energy transport codes generally have difficulties to correctly estimate their production yields as was shown recently by the ISOLDE Collaboration, which measured releas
Kvaliteten på kliniska bilder har stor betydelse för korrekt medicinsk diagnostik. I konventionella morfologiska MR-bilder är signalen normalt relativt hög i förhållande till bruset. Vissa nya MR-metoder för s.k. funktionsdiagnostik bygger emellertid på en avsiktlig degradering av signalen för att vissa kvantitativa parametrar skall kunna beräknas. I sådana studier kan följaktligen signal-till-bruNoise is a well-known problem in many imaging modalities. In magnitude magnetic resonance images, obtained by quadrature detection, the associated Rician distribution of noise constitutes a further complication. This type of noise is especially problematic at low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) regions. The Rician noise distribution causes a non-zero minimum signal in the image, often referred to as t
Denna uppsats tar sikte på regleringen om tvångslikvidation och inlösen på grund av majoritetsmissbruk i privata aktiebolag enligt 25 kap. 21–23 § aktiebolagslagen (2005:551), ABL. Bestämmelserna infördes som ett led i att stärka minoritetsskyddet i aktiebolagslagen (1975:1385), ABL 1975. I förarbetena benämns det som den ”sista utvägen” (ultima ratio) för en förtryckt minoritetsägare. MöjlighetenThis essay aims at the regulations on compulsory liquidation and redemption due to majority abuse in private limited companies according to ch. 25. Sec-tions 21–23 of the Swedish Companies Act (2005:551), ABL. The provisions were introduced as part of strengthening minority protection in the Companies Act (1975:1385), ABL 1975. In the legal proceedings they are referred to as the "last resort
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with t(9;22)(q34;q11), also known as AML with BCR-ABL1, is a rare, provisional entity in the WHO 2016 classification and is considered a high-risk disease according to the European LeukemiaNet 2017 risk stratification. We here present a retrospective, population-based study of this disease entity from the Swedish Acute Leukemia Registry. By strict clinical inclusion cr
Background and Objectives: The International Society of Blood Transfusion (ISBT) Working Party (WP) on Red Cell Immunogenetics and Blood Group Terminology (RCI&BGT) held six business meetings between December 2021 and June 2024. This report describes the new blood group systems and antigens ratified during these meetings. Materials and Methods: Candidate systems and antigens were reviewed acco
Background: Access to safe and timely blood transfusion is a cornerstone of modern healthcare but depends on a stable supply of voluntary donations and rigorous hemovigilance systems. O-negative red blood cells are universally compatible and essential for emergency transfusions; however, their scarcity, particularly in low-resource regions, poses significant challenges. To address this challenge,
Background: Baleen whales are a clade of gigantic and highly specialized marine mammals. Their genomes have been used to investigate their complex evolutionary history and to decipher the molecular mechanisms that allowed them to reach these dimensions. However, many unanswered questions remain, especially about the early radiation of rorquals and how cancer resistance interplays with their huge n
This thesis examines the role of beamlines with publication metadata from the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility (ESRF a large scientific facility offering diverse conditions for scientific research. As a user-oriented Big Science facility, the ESRF channels extremely brilliant light into different experimental areas called beamlines that house specific instruments that cater to the needs of
Annual recurrent blooms of the toxic dinoflagellates Alexandrium catenella and Alexandrium minutum were detected from 2000 to 2003 in harbours along the Catalan coast. The interrelation study between the occurrence of the blooms and specific external conditions at the study sites demonstrated that different factors are required for the bloom of each Alexandrium species. Concentrations higher than
Since January 2006, robotic assistance has been used for performing minimal invasive laparoscopic fundoplications in children. These patients were compared with those operated on with either the open surgical technique or the laparoscopic procedure. The first six children operated on with a fundoplication using the operation robot, da Vinci (R) Surgical System from Intuitive Surgical (R), were inc
Popular Abstract in Swedish Det religiösa landskapet i Europa genomsyras av rituell kreativitet - inom teater, psykoterapi och religiösa samfund laborerar individer och grupper med rituella former under mer eller mindre obundna förutsättningar. En stor del av det rituella nyskapandet återfinns emellertid utanför de etablerade religiösa institutionerna och traditionens ortopraxi. Här ses ritualer oRitual creativity may seem like a contradiction in terms, yet the religious landscape in contemporary Euro-America is permeate with experimentation of ritual forms, different modalities of action, imagination and play as routes to authenticity. The present study examines different settings in Europe involved in such ritual creativity, which would commonly be classified as postmodern spirituality,
The immune system is remarkable in many ways. It exerts immunity to defend us from foreign pathogens, while it is also responsible for maintaining tolerance to avoid autoimmune diseases and allergy. This thesis includes three separate papers concerning both tolerance and immunity. In paper I we report that repeated antigen stimulation results in an increased proportion of Foxp3+ cells in the CD4+
A Course in Miracles (ACIM) is a spiritual teaching that was said to be channelled by Helen Shucman during 1965-1972. Shucman received what she described as an inner dictation, which she wrote down in shorthand. Her collegue and friend; William Thetford was then copy-typing the text. It came to comprise of around 1,200 pages of text, and is presented as a program of self-tuition, aimed to change a
The present essay focuses on the figure of Maurice Bucaille and on his contribution to the discourse on Islam and science. Its purpose is twofold. First of all, it aims to provide the reader with a concise map of the ideas of the French author, reconstructing their core and their interrelations. Furthermore, it aims to question what I define as the apparent naivety of Bucaille's work, a reason why
In Swedish higher formal aesthetic education, students from ethnic minorities are significantly underrepresented. This also seems to be the case in music education for younger children. Accordingly, the relationship between music education and the ethnic diversity of the contemporary Swedish society, not reflected in the selection of students to the Swedish music and culture schools, is of vital iIn Swedish higher formal aesthetic education, students from ethnic mi-norities are significantly underrepresented.
