The use of duty-cycled ultralow-power wake-up receivers (WRxs) can significantly extend a node lifetime in low-power sensor network applications. In the WRx design, both the low-power operation of the WRx and the wake-up beacon (WB) detection performance are of importance. We present a system-level analysis of a duty-cycled WRx design, including an analog front end, a digital baseband, the WB stru
Optical spectral analysis and multispectral imaging provide powerful means for characterizing samples in a wide variety of applications and on many spatial scales. We present a simple implementation of these techniques in the context of microscopy. A modified commercial microscope equipped with a CMOS imaging detector, combined with an array of light emitting diodes with emission ranging from ultr
We study the dynamic admission control for a finite shared buffer with support of multiclass traffic under Markovian assumptions. The problem is often referred to as buffer sharing in the literature. From the linear programming (LP) formulation of the continuous-time Markov decision process (MDP), we construct a hierarchy of increasingly stronger LP relaxations where the hierarchy levels equal the
CaO-based sorbents are considered suitable candidates for cyclic CO2 capture at high temperatures. However, the CO2 capture capacities of natural CaO-based sorbents decrease sharply after only a few cycles. This paper presents a novel wet mixing combustion synthesis to improve the cyclic CO2 capture performance of CaO-based sorbents. Results show that preparation conditions significantly affected
Quantum transport of strongly correlated fermions is of central interest in condensed matter physics. While the stationary expansion dynamics have recently been measured with cold atoms in 2D optical lattices, ab initio simulations have been limited to 1D setups so far. Here, we present the first precise fermionic quantum dynamics simulations for 2D and 3D. The simulations are based on nonequilibr
Soft tissue sarcomas (STS) are challenging as they represent a morphologically and genetically heterogeneous groups of tumors. A multitude of genetic changes, often in the form of fusion genes, were recognized during the 1980's and now constitute a diagnostic lexicon in several STS subtypes, whereas many of the more common subtypes are genetically complex without distinct alterations. Refined STS
In recent years measurement techniques and equipment have developed well. The new measurement technology has made companies realize that products not are according to drawings. Meanwhile the products still works as planed and can be sold to customers. The reason that the details are not according to drawings can be traced to a surface with narrow angle tolerance. The project is limited to two sma
Under 2015 sökte rekordmånga asyl i Sverige. För att minska antalet asylsökande till Sverige valde regeringen att införa den tillfälliga utlänningslagen. Majoriteten av remissinstanserna var kritiska till lagförslaget, men regeringen valde ändå att införa den tillfälliga lagen med motiveringen att det var nödvändigt att skapa andrum i svenskt asylmottagande. Den tillfälliga utlänningslagen innehålSweden received a record number of asylum seekers in 2015. To reduce the number of asylum seekers, the Swedish Parliament adopted a new law. The new law entered into force on 20th July 2016 and will be valid for three years. The law was adopted even though a majority of the consultative bodies were critical to the new law. There are three big changes with the new law. The first change is that refu
Uppsatsen syftar till att, ur ett nationalekonomiskt perspektiv, undersöka och klargöra huruvida ansvarsförsäkringar, som tecknas av aktiebolag för dess styrelseledamöter, är förenliga med det preventiva syftet bakom skadeståndssanktionen i 29 kap. 1 § ABL. Den aktiebolagsrättsliga sanktionsbestämmelsen och dess företrädesvis preventiva syfte presenteras utförligt tillsammans med ansvars- och styThe objective of this thesis is to investigate and clarify however professional indemnity insurances, that limited companies purchase and implements for its board members, from an economic perspective are in accordance with the purpose of prevention that lay behind the damage sanction in the 29th chapter of the Swedish Company Act. The damage sanction of the Swedish Company Act, and its preferabl
Syftet med förevarande uppsats är att belysa umgängessabotage och dess eventuella konsekvenser. Närmare bestämt avses att undersöka hur ett eventuellt umgängessabotage påverkar tingsrätten i sin bedömning när den har att ta ställning till vad som innebär barnets bästa (se föräldrabalken 6 kap. 2 a §). Umgängesrätten har utvecklats från att vara en rättighet avsedd för den förälder som utan grund hThe purpose of this essay is to highlight the consequences of the situation where one parent without acceptable cause refuses the other parent’s right of access with their child, hereinafter called ‘access sabotage’. The purpose is more specifically to investigate how the situation of access sabotage is affecting the district court in its assessment when it has to consider what outcome will be in
I min uppsats har jag studerat hur förtroendet för åklagaren har påverkat åklagarrollen och åklagarprofessionen. Jag har i uppsatsen utgått ifrån ett utvecklingsperspektiv där jag dels har tittat på rättsutvecklingen i form av hur åklagaren har fått allt större befogenheter och behörighet och dels har tittat på hur åklagarprofessionen påverkats i form av legitimitet, auktoritet och autonomi. Vid mIn my essay, I have studied how confidence in the prosecutor has influenced the prosecutor’s role and the prosecutorial profession. In the essay, I´ve used a development perspective, where I looked at both the legislative development, where the Prosecutor has received increasing mandate and privileges, and at the development of the prosecutorial profession in terms of legitimacy, authority and aut
BDSM är ett samlingsbegrepp för de sexuella disciplinerna Bondage/Disciplin, Dominans/Submission och Sadomasochism. Syftet med denna uppsats är att utreda rättssäkerhetsbrister vid gränsdragningen mellan straffansvar och ansvarsfrihet vid våldsutövning i BDSM-relationer. De två nivåer som ska vara uppfyllda för att ett samtycke ska verka ansvarsbefriande enligt 24 kap. 7 § BrB är samtyckets giltigBDSM is an overlapping abbreviation of the sexual practices Bondage/Discipline, Dominance/Submission and Sadomasochism. The purpose of this thesis is to examine deficiencies in the rule of law regarding the boundary between criminal liability and discharge from liability in BDSM-relations. For consent to be a ground for exemption from criminal responsibility according to Chapter 24 Section 7 in th
Light dark matter is a hypothesized form of dark matter in the 1 MeV to 1 GeV mass range. The Light Dark Matter eXperiment (LDMX) is an upcoming experiment to test the existence of light dark matter, by colliding an electron beam with a tungsten target and assembling a set of events that potentially indicate the existence of light dark matter. The three main detector components of the LDMX are a s
Generally credited to have originated in 2005, coworking spaces provide hybrid work environments to individual professionals, entrepreneurs, and start-ups. Simultaneously, social entrepreneurship has received increasing attention as a solution to topical problems. This thesis aims to provide an empirical exploration of the ways in which coworking spaces facilitate social entrepreneurship, seen fro
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of ESG ratings on firm’s credit ratings for real estate investment trusts in the USA. Through a quantitative research methodology, a panel data regression analysis is used in order to examine the effect of ESG rating on firms’ credit ratings. The sample used in our study consists of a set of unbalanced panel data consisting of 3,470 firm-month
Sweden has set a goal to produce 100% renewable electricity in 2040. In order to accomplish this, a transition towards renewable energy (RE) is necessary. However, the development of RE needs to coexist with other interests of the nation, as RE typically occupies large areas of land or off shore water. This has resulted in conflicts, for instance, between offshore wind power development and nation
As the 20th century turned into the 21st, and cooperation characterized Europe and the western relationship with Russia, the aim and ambition for Swedish defense policy and the development of the Armed Forces was, that in case of a deteriorated security situation in Europe, Swedish politicians would have strategic warning ten years beforehand in order to adjust the military capabilities. The aim o
