The ionization sensor is an electrical probe for diagnostics in internal combustion engines. Laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) imaging of fuel, hydroxyl (OH), and nitric oxide (NO) distributions has been employed to extend our knowledge about the governing processes leading to its signal. By monitoring the flame propagation in quiescent and turbulent mixtures, the cycle-to-cycle variations in the e

This essay develops a theory for the explanation of the diffrences in succes of Radical Right Populist Parties in Western Europe. In order to create a succesfull radical right populist movement and thus a succesfull radical right populist party, three elements are needed; ?demand?, ?supply? amd ?mobilisation?. Because the creation of a radical right populist movement is different than the creatio

The objective of this thesis is to comprehensively demonstrate the existing extent, and the nature of the Ius Cogens Human Rights Obligations of Transnational Companies and their enforcement in the international law. The existing international human rights law is mainly state-centric as it creates obligations primarily upon States to promote human rights. Apart from that one can outline an affluen

The aim of this study is to investigate how John Marsden’s Tomorrow, when the war began (1993) could be used for reading-between-the-lines practice in the English language classroom. It answers questions relating to how reading between the lines can be understood in relation to Grice’s cooperative principle, the effects of implicature in the text and how teachers can use this information to facili

This paper examines the relevance of the world system as a structural condition to be considered in research on regimes and democratization. This is a pilot study in reformulating world systems analysis into the research topic of regimes, their creation and democratization. The methodology is statistical and covers most of the world for the time period 1980-1999. The study starts by formulating im

The primary objective of this study was to measure the effect of CEO ownership on firm value in the presence of strong external governance. We hypothesized that the concentrated ownership structure in Sweden could make equity incentive programs less relevant. The same hypothesis is tested on a subsample of risky firms as well, categorized as firms that conduct R&D. Using panel data methods and

This thesis examines how the European Commission depoliticises TTIP, the free trade agreement currently negotiated by EU and the US government and what the consequences are. Taking on a discourse theoretical perspective on power, inspired by Chantal Mouffe and Ernesto Laclau, where language plays a central part, this thesis regards depoliticisation as a discursive phenomenon. As language according

Denna studie undersöker tillståndsprocessen för stora landbaserade vindkraftverk i Sverige. För att bygga en gruppstation med fler än sju vindkraftverk som är högre än 120 meter eller enstaka verk högre än 150 meter krävs tillstånd från Länsstyrelsen. Tillståndsansökningar till Länsstyrelsen kräver att den kommun där vindkraftverken ska placeras ger sin tillstyrkan enligt 16 kap. 4 § i Miljöbalken

The realisation of the inner market meant that all border controls between the Member States of the European Community were to disappear, so that the four freedoms, workers, capital, services and goods, could cross the borders without problems. But in order to keep the security in a Community with no borders, the external border controls had to be strengthened. This was necessary to keep out drugs

Dark Matter is one of the biggest mysteries in physics of our time, with an overwhelming amount of evidence for its existence but lack of direct observation (at time of writing). The focus of this thesis is to reimplement an ATLAS analysis used for Dark Matter searches in the mono-H(bb) channel, and use that analysis in order to study the signal of a new particle called Dark Higgs. The Dark Higgs

In 2015, a coalition comprised of Saudi Arabia and its allies, conducted a military intervention in Yemen to protect the internationally recognized government. This study aims to analyse how Saudi Arabian officials has justified the intervention to fight against the Houthi rebels through three principles of just war theory. The study uses these principles as analytical tools in an argumentative an

Colombia committed to reduce 20% of its emissions by 2030 in the framework of Paris Agreement. The study provides a systemic approach that considers the two main drivers of the emissions in the country to know how realistic is the mentioned intended National Determined Contribution (iNDC). It analyzes deforestation and road transport with a methodology that combines analyses of their current situa

A search for microscopic black holes has been performed in a same-sign dimuon final state using 1.3 fb(-1) of proton-proton collision data collected with the ATLAS detector at a centre of mass energy of 7 TeV at the CERN Large Hadron Collider. The data are found to be consistent with the expectation from the Standard Model and the results are used to derive exclusion contours in the context of a l

Context. A number of large spectroscopic surveys of stars in the Milky Way are under way or are being planned. In this context it is important to discuss the extent to which elemental abundances can be used as discriminators between different (known and unknown) stellar populations in the Milky Way. Aims. We aim to establish the requirements in terms of precision in elemental abundances, as derive

ObjectiveTo study the predictive value of biphasic ST-events for interventions for suspected fetal distress and adverse neonatal outcome, when using ST-analysis of the fetal electrocardiogram (FECG) for intrapartum fetal monitoring. DesignProspective cohort study. SettingThree academic hospitals in Sweden. PopulationWomen in labor with a high-risk singleton fetus in cephalic position beyond 36week
