Currently in the region of the Isthmus of Tehuantepec in Oaxaca has an extensive area with wind farm projects due to their excellent wind speed conditions. A large wind energy plant – the Project Mareña Renovables that since their origins started in 2004 with Preneal Company. It was planned to
When making decisions regarding investments and planning of the distribution network, it is of great help to be able to calculate and analyze the reliability. The main interest is to study how many of the faults occur and the duration of these faults. The software Tekla NIS contains a module for calculation of the reliability of distribution systems, this is also known as reliability based network
Bygg- och anläggningsbranschen är, och kommer fortsatt att vara, en extremt viktig gren av det svenska näringslivet. Av konstanta och beräknade ökningar i befolkningsmängd följer nödvändiga satsningar på bostäder, infrastruktur och industrier. Det är därför av största vikt att den kontroll, alltså besiktning, som sker av byggen utförs enligt kontrakt och avtal samtidigt som denna är smidig, korrekThe construction industry has historically constituted, and will continue to constitute, an important part of the Swedish industry. Projected population increases will require important investments in housing, infrastructure and industry. It is therefore of upmost importance that construction surveying be conducted in an accurate, efficient and timely manner so as not to impede the delivery of the
Abstract Author: Ella-Kari Meyrell Title: Strategy for welfare - a discourse analytical study of culture in health, social care and school organizations Supervisor: Håkan Jönson Assessor: Torbjörn Hjort The aim of this study was to examine how culture (as “the arts”) is constructed as a strategy in welfare work. The empirical material was based upon 160 articles from Swedish printed and web base
Abstract This degree project examines how much carbon dioxide that emits during the construction phase of a road project. This is to make it possible to compare how the amount of carbon dioxide differentiates between traditional road construction and Swepave construction, which is PEAB’s alternative way to design roads. To make the comparison a calculation tool has been produced. To compare the am
I media har diskussioner angående förbud mot rasistiska organisationer väckts i samband med att Nordiska motståndsrörelsen (NMR) kandiderar till riksdagsvalet i Sverige, samtidigt som organisationen förbjudits i Finland då den anses sprida hatretorik och legitimera våld. Förespråkare av ett sådant förbud argumenterar att Sverige genom FN:s Internationella konvention om avskaffandet av alla former In the media, discussions about banning racist organizations have been raised in connection with the Nordic resistance movement (NMR) standing as a candidate in the Swedish parliamentary elections, while at the same time the organization has been banned in Finland because it is considered to spread hate and legitimize violence. Advocates of a ban argue that Sweden through the International Convent
Det har hävdats att den teoribildning rörande beslutsfattande under osäkerhet som utvecklats främst inom matematiken, men även inom den ekonomiska vetenskapen bland andra, med fördel skulle kunna inkorporeras även i den juridiska disciplinen. I första hand är det i detta sammanhang Bayes sats som avses, och denna sats tillämplighet på juridiska spörsmål. Detta började diskuteras på allvar mot slutThere have been claims put forth which aims at proving that the theories developed within mathematics, but also within economics to name one, regarding decision making and fact finding would suit very well to be adopted into the legal decision making as well. It is in this context primarily Bayes’ theorem which is referred and mentioned theorems compatibility with law. One of the first articles re
In the ongoing library debate part of the focus has been on youth in libraries and how many libraries find them to be a challenging group to work with due to some occurring disturbances. In some cases the youth sections start to lean towards being youth recreation centers. Youth need somewhere to be that isn’t home or school and since there aren’t many open, free of cost public spaces, and many ci
Bostadsbristen slår hårdast mot dem som redan står längst ifrån bostadsmarknaden. Unga, nysvenskar och äldre har fått det svårare att få sina bostadsbehov tillgodosedda. Det svenska bostadsbyggandet har sedan år 2006 varit lågt i förhållande till befolkningsutvecklingen (Boverket 2015:a). Effekterna av ett lågt bostadsbyggande är bland annat en ökad trångboddhet, osäkra boendeförhållanden, svarthaThe effects of a housing shortage will be hardest on those groups, who are far from being a part of the housing market. It is becoming more and more difficult for young adults, immigrants and elderly to find a solution for their housing needs in Sweden. Since 2006, the rate of construction of housing in Sweden has been relatively low compared to the population growth rate (Boverket 2015:a). The ef
Uppsatsen behandlar den rättsliga hanteringen av personlig och sexuell integritet i dagens samhälle. Den utreder även det särskilt skyddsvärda i den sexuella integriteten. Uppsatsen grundar sig i en teori om att sexualbrott är starkt förknippade med kön, makt och sexualitet där offret oftast är en kvinna och gärningsmannen en man. Därför anlägger uppsatsen ett feministiskt perspektiv. Uppsatsen This essay focuses on personal and sexual integrity and how they, as two protective interests, are dealt with in the legislation process and in criminal law in general in today’s society. It especially focuses on the specific characteristics of sexual integrity and sexual crimes. The essay is based on a theory that sexual crimes are strongly connected to gender, power and sexuality where the victi
Transposable elements (TEs) are genetic entities that have the ability to move around the genome and regulate nearby genes. Therefore, they constitute a potential threat (and sometimes an evolutionary advantage) for the host's genome. Among other regulatory activities, DNA methylation and KRAB-ZNF are responsible for TE silencing. The dysregulation of these silencing mechanisms have been studi
The recovery of ‘waste heat’ from industrial and urban processes could meet a significant share of heating demands in urban and semi-urban areas. Replacing conventional heat sources in district heating (DH) systems with recovered heat could decrease primary energy inputs in a sector that globally relies to 90% on fossil fuels. Yet, despite the environmental, social, and economic benefits of waste
År 1999 kriminaliserade Sverige köp men inte försäljning av sexuell tjänst som första land i världen. Uppsatsen syftar till att förklara motiven bakom förbudet, utvärdera motivens uppfyllande genom kriminaliseringen och analysera kravet på dubbel straffbarhet i relation till motiven. Detta görs genom en rättsdogmatisk respektive en rättsanalytisk metod. Uppsatsen intar framförallt ett kritiskt perThe year of 1999 Sweden was the first country in the world to criminalise the purchase but not the sale of sexual services. The purpose of the essay is to explain the motives behind the legislation, to evaluate the fulfilling of the motives through the legislation and to analyze the dual criminality requirement in relations to the motives. This is done through a legal dogmatic method and a legal a
The rate of global urbanization in the 21st century has been unprecedented especially in the African and the Asian continents. Urbanization typically causes a removal of natural vegetation and replacement of same with impervious and non-evaporative urban materials with high heat capacity and low solar reflectivity. The alteration of the natural land cover due to urbanization causes a change in the
Popular Abstract in English My PhD thesis has focused on increasing the understanding of the osteoclasts, the cells responsible for degradation of bone, by studying the rare hereditary disease autosomal recessive osteopetrosis (ARO). ARO is present already at birth and is caused by mutations affecting the osteoclasts ability to degrade bone. Non-functional osteoclasts lead to dramatic increases inThis thesis focuses on developing and characterizing novel models for studying osteoclasts with an emphasis on how mutations abolishing osteoclastic acidification affect osteoclast signaling and bone remodeling, as well as how to treat patients bearing these rare mutations. Bone remodeling is under normal circumstances a tightly balanced process where resorption of bone by osteoclasts is followed
Popular Abstract in English Retailers are increasingly expected to use their market power to support the societal goal of sustainable consumption and production (SCP). For retailers, the challenge herein lies in the difficulty to translate the abstract societal discourse into concrete action in the marketplace. This thesis argues that retailers are well advised to give more attention to the indivi
OBJECTIVES: Deteriorating ward patients are at increased risk. Electronic automated advisory vital signs monitors may help identify such patients and improve their outcomes. SETTING: A total of 349 beds, in 12 general wards in ten hospitals in the United States, Europe, and Australia. PATIENTS: Cohort of 18,305 patients. DESIGN: Before-and-after controlled trial. INTERVENTION: We deployed
Telomeres are tandem repeats of TTAGGG at the end of eukaryotic chromosomes. Telomeres play a key role in chromosome stability and regulation of the cellular lifespan. Telomeres are shortened during cell division, and probably, by not yet well characterised factors in the environment. Short telomeres in peripheral blood have repeatedly been associated with increased risk of various types of cancer
