Strandskyddslagstiftningen och allemansrätten är unika globalt sett. Strandskyddets syfte är att bevara den goda livsmiljön för växter och djur samt att trygga förutsättningarna för allmänhetens tillgång till kusterna. 1 juli 2009 trädde den förändrade strandskyddslagstiftningen i kraft. De huvudsakliga målen med förändringen var enligt propositionen att främja utvecklingen i landsbygden med god tShoreline protection law and the right of commons are unique from a global perspective. The purpose of the shoreline protection law is to promote and maintain a good habitat for plants and animals and to secure the basis for the public's access to the coastline. On the 1st of July 2009 the new and changed shoreline protection law took effect. The main purpose of the change was to promote rura

In recent years the use of BIM (Building Information Modeling) in the construction industry has increased dramatically. In the current situation, many of the major players use BIM both in the design and production phase. What remains is to explore is how BIM can be used in property management. Purpose: The purpose of this study is to find out which information the contractor must put in the BIM mo

The flow of information must be more effective to optimize and improve the supply chain process. For the two case studies, there is a portal that manages the information. The contractor provides documents that the provider needs to submit quotation for a project purchase. All the handling of documents is made in the portal but the quote is sent by e-mail back to the contractor. For a purchase by c

Denna uppsats utreder konkurrensrättens relation till läkemedelspatent och den eviga dragkampen mellan original- och generikatillverkare. Läkemedelssektorn är ett område där starka intressen och ekonomiska krafter styr. Patentet är centralt och nödvändigt för att privata parter ska få incitament till forskning och utveckling. Samtidigt är det nödvändigt att originalläkemedel efter en viss tids eThis thesis investigates the competition rules’ relationship to pharmaceutical patents and describes the tug-of-war between originators and generics. The pharmaceutical sector is governed by strong interests and economic forces. The patent is key and necessary for the creation of incentives for private actors to pursue in research and development. At the same time it is essential that patent pro

The purpose of this paper is to test for the goodness-of-fit of the term structure models for the short-term interest rate in Sweden. The study period ranges from February 1, 2002 to March 31, 2012. The maximum likelihood method is used to estimate the models and the likelihood ratio test is applied to perform a comparison among the models. The implication of empirical results can be summarized as

This thesis takes an ethnographic approach in examining how individuals experience mobility, particularly bicycling, in their everyday lives in Lund, Sweden. Focusing on 8 individuals, this research delves into the personal experiences of individuals who have moved to Lund with varying degrees of familiarity with cycling as an everyday practice. This thesis explores three main research questions:

At the Tagged-Photon Facility at MAX-lab, the Swedish National Electron Accelerator Laboratory situated in Lund, bremsstrahlung photons are used for photonuclear experiments. The production takes place via an interaction between an energetic pulsed-stretched electron beam and a thin conducting foil. Determination of the energy and timing of the individual bremsstrahlung photons is made possible by

The aim for this project is to improve and replace ArjoHuntleigh´s existing scoop stretcher with a new concept. The field-of-use for the current stretcher is in hospital- and homecare, although other competitive scoop stretchers are used for ambulance emergency care. For this reason, the possibility to extend the target group is investigated. Firstly, a comprehensive study, i.a. through study vis

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

This thesis is concerned with establishing a theoretical position regarding the state as a cartographic author. Critical cartography provides an understanding of the profound connection between the state and the map. I am adopting a classical state-as-actor IR-perspective in order to ascribe the state agency, and I situate this perspective in the ontological debate of structure contra agency. The

Most of the things that we know about stars come from their spectrum. The properties of the atomic lines, e.g. energy levels, wavelengths, oscillator strengths, must be known to understand the observed spectrum and to perform quantitative analyses. Atomic data of some elements are incomplete, especially in the near-infrared region, which makes it difficult or even impossible to analyze a stellar s

The Living Table is the result of my master thesis, a study about the table culture of our modern lifestyle. My aim was to create a concept that communicates values, motivates to share values and traditions that are related to food and table culture. The project was divided in two parts; the theoretical part, where I explored the development of the table and food culture within Europe and analysed

This Master thesis report contains the whole development process of an automatic tool changer device for a CNC milling machine. All aspects of an integral development of a product are included in it. The automatic tool changer is methodically developed through a series of stages, finally leading to an in-detail design of a working piece of machinery ready to be built. For the development of this

This is an inquiry into how aspects of the present human reality came to being and thereby also an investigation into limitations and potentialities of this “present”. An important argument in this essay is that there exists a mutually affective relationship between culture and politics and that this relationship implies both possibilities and constraints. With this in mind I try to critically inv

Human trafficking is an alarming issue that has been discussed by many scholars and policy makers from different fields. It has been argued that poverty is one of the root causes of trafficking, making people to take any risks to improve life. The severe exploitation that occurs during trafficking experience has put victims of trafficking in a difficult situation where they are often seen as objec

Internal immigration in China has experienced a huge increase since the economic reform was launched in the late 1970s. While contemporary Hukou (household registration) system has contributed to stop the immigrants from sharing the local welfare benefits, especially the public education resources. This research focuses on the children of all immigrants, more precisely, on the non-local hukou chil

This text tries to explore the issue of knowledge in relation to ‘participatory processes of decision making’. Writing from an interdisciplinary perspective, the text revises both theories on democracy and on knowledge trying to bridge them in order to highlight the importance of the knowledge dimension for understanding the ‘participatory processes of decision making’(PPDM). The text suggests 3 a

Mediemarknaden i Sverige har förändrats mycket de senaste decennierna och där har en ökad marknadsorientering spelat en stor roll. Under samma tid har också ägarkoncentrationen inom media ökat. En fungerande media spelar en viktig roll i en demokrati och mediekoncentration anses från de flesta håll ha negativa konsekvenser på mediemarknaden. Mångfalden samt yttrandefriheten skadas och i förlängnin
