The focus of the study also extends to analyze the potential consequences of the goal’s phrasing and understand why the empowerment of women and girls are seen as essential for the progression on all levels of sustainability. Through qualitative in

Solitary bees and bumblebees have declined substantially throughout western Europe during the last 100 years. Many species are important pollinators and are associated with particular plant species and habitats. In this study we report the highest number of bee species found at one locality in Sweden (Table 2). In total 87 species of wild bees (74 species of solitary bees and 13 species of bumble

Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingen behandlar reglering av Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition (HCCI) motor dynamik. HCCI erbjuder möjligheten att kombinera hög effektivitet med väldigt låga emissioner. Återkopplad reglering är ett sätt att uppnå dessa mål. Avhandlingen diskuterar sensorer, återkopplingsvariabler och aktuatorer för sluten-loop reglering av HCCI förbränningen. Det är demoThe topic of the thesis is control of Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition (HCCI) engine dynamics. HCCI offers a potential to combine high efficiency with very low emissions. In order to fulfill the potential benefits, closed-loop control is needed. The thesis discusses sensors, feedback signals and actuators for closed-loop control of the HCCI combustion. Closed-loop control of the HCCI combu

Abstract in Danish Formål: Formålet er at beskrive tuberkulosens (tbc.) epidemiologi i Danmark de sidste 25 år, specielt udviklingen i den danske befolkning. Metode: Et registerstudie af anmeldte tilfælde af tbc. i Danmark 1972-1996: Fra 1970-1989 i DIKE's register, fra 1990-1996 i EPI-registeret, epidemiologisk afd., Statens Serum Institut. Resultater: tbc.-incidensen faldt jævnt fra 1972 indtiThe present study is based on notified cases of tuberculosis (TB) in the National tbc. register 1972-1996. A decline in Tb incidence was seen from 1972 and until the mid-1980's. Subsequently the trend has reversed due to an increasing number of TB cases in foreigners. In 1996, 60% of all cases of TB in Denmark were found in foreigners reflecting the rising number of refugees and their families arr

This paper is a critical discourse analysis aiming to examine how the Migration Court in Malmö uses children's own reasons for asylum and the concept of the best interest of the child in a selected number of decisions from January to March 2012th. We have investigated how the court formulates its decisions in order to under¬stand if a child’s claim for asylum is tested on its own merits and ho

This thesis studies protection as integral to security. Protection has been used to keep women from the ‘public sphere’ and abused by peacekeepers and patriarchs alike, suggesting that being protected is not synonymous with being safe but can cause violence and exclusion. From that contradiction, I ask how the concepts of protection and security are produced, and to what effects for (gender) equal

This report describes the development of a green design camera concept for Axis Communications AB. The problem description for this thesis stated that the concept should be developed by modifying one of Axis current products to achieve a decrease in environmental impact. Also, the Cost of Goods Sold (COGS) of the camera should not be increased and the concept should be able to fulfill the same mec

In this thesis, the compatibility between the standards developed in ISO/TC 223 – Societal Security and the standards developed in ISO/TC 262 – Risk Management, is examined. A joint qualitative method of analysis, consisting of document analysis and semi-structured interviews, is applied. With the help of an operational definition of compatibility, the study results in a coefficient of compatibili

This article focuses on what is often termed the general (or public) sense of justice, GSJ for short. It illustrates the influence that the GSJ has had on various preparatory works in Swedish criminal law during a recent decade. It is often claimed that the GSJ is used as an argument in political discourse and decision making in the area of criminal law, especially to motivate criminalisation and

In the past few years, numerous authors have highlighted the emergence of transnational climate initiatives, such as city networks, private certification schemes, and business self-regulation in the policy domain of climate change. While these transnational governance arrangements can surely contribute to solving the problem of climate change, their development by different types of sub- and non-s

Cosmology presents students with ideas that stimulate their curiosity and brings together various concepts from STEM that call on a variety of reasoning types across multiple representational modes, involving subtleties of spacetime relations, a variety of models and evidence requiring multiple lines of high precision observations. This study investigated high school students’ levels and types of

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: To provide an overview of recent studies discussing novel strategies, controversies, and challenges in the management of severe traumatic brain injury (sTBI) in the initial postinjury hours. RECENT FINDINGS: Prehospital management of sTBI should adhere to Advanced Trauma Life Support (ATLS) principles. Maintaining oxygen saturation and blood pressure within target ranges on-scen

This lecture is a brief introduction to charged particle accelerators. The aim is to provide the reader with basic concepts and tools needed to describe the motion of charged particles under the action of guiding and focussing fields, with an emphasis on those aspects that are relevant to understanding and quantifying how accelerator vacuum systems affect accelerator performance. Even though the f

This article suggest that costume-driven performances are a growing trend in international performing arts scene as well as in costume research. The article sheds light on international trends in the performing arts and research, offers an example of a costume-driven dance performance from the author’s practice and concludes with considerations about the field's visibility/potential in the Danish

Mellan åren 1955 och 1957 utförde Märta Strömberg (sedermera professor i arkeologi) och Rolf Petré (som senare blev fil. lic. i arkeologi) arkeologiska undersökningar av Vätterydsgravfältet i norra Mellby socken (L1990:1893 / Norra Mellby 1:1) ...
