Gruppen om använder elcykel är enligt datamaterialet främst män med tillgång till bil. Innehavet är ganska jämnt fördelat över 35 år. Elcyklisterna är teknikintresserade samtidigt verkar miljöintresset vara ett drivande motiv till varför elcykel införskaffades. Minskad restid verkar ha en viss betydelse speciellt för den yngre åldersgruppen. Majoriteten av de svarande instämmer i påståendet att el
Den inre marknaden i EU karaktäriseras av ett antal friheter. Onlinespel faller under etableringsfrihet och friheten att tillhandahålla tjänster. Medlemsstaterna har med stöd av ett fördragsundantag, tenderat att vilja förbehålla sig rätten att erbjuda speltjänster inom respektive land. Internets framfart har dock lett till ett paradigmskifte på spelområdet där nu öppnare licenssystem ersätter monThe European internal market is characterised by a number of freedoms. Online gambling is the subject of the freedom of establishment and freedom to provide services. Member states tend to invoke an exception of the free movement, granting them exclusive rights to provide gambling services. The growth of the internet and its impact on the gambling industry has however created a shift in paradigm.
Massive Open Online Courses (MOOC) represent a recent stage in open education. In more and more institutions they are moving from an early entrepreneurial stage into the reality. The rapidly rising participation levels, high visibility and a growing community worldwide prompt a number of important questions. The MOOC Quality Project, an initiative of the European Foundation for Quality in E-Learn
The review of Kristina Fjelkestam’s Det sublimas politik: emancipatorisk estetik i 1800-talets konstnärsromaner [Sublime politics: emancipatory aesthetics in nineteenth-century Künstlerromane] focuses on how the author makes use of the sublime as a means to connect three women writers use of the Künstlerromane in their political, emancipatory projects. On the other hand, the review also deals with
In our contemporary age, the name praise song has got a special meaning, roughly defined as: a song consisting of a rather short text that is sung over and over again, set to music in some contemporary popular style, directed by a worship leader, and accompanied by a team with instruments that may be unusual in church, as el-guitars and drums. The phenomenon is described and critically evaluated.
The legitimacy of the judiciary hinges on the presumption that truth can be found through the judicial process. Even though a distinction can be made between "truth" in a legal sense and "real truth", the legal truth can only be justified by its anchorage in "real truth". During the last few decades, the previosly all-powerful assumption of the objective nature of reality and knowledge has been ch
BACKGROUND: Overexpression of the PGM2 gene encoding phosphoglucomutase (Pgm2p) has been shown to improve galactose utilization both under aerobic and under anaerobic conditions. Similarly, xylose utilization has been improved by overexpression of genes encoding xylulokinase (XK), enzymes from the non-oxidative pentose phosphate pathway (non-ox PPP) and deletion of the endogenous aldose reductase
The Swedish Association for Applied Linguistics, ASLA (Association suédoise de linguistique appliquée) was formally founded as an autonomous Swedish affiliate of AILA in 1966. The constituting meeting was held at Lund University on April 12, 1966 during which the first chairperson, Professor Bertil Malmberg, was elected. This means that ASLA will be celebrating its 50th anniversary in 2016. Howeve
Recension av två doktorsavhandlingar.This review scrutinizes two doctoral dissertations at Lund University, one in Historical Archaeology, the other in Latin. Both are deemed to deserve high praise.
Home mechanical ventilation (HMV) is increasingly used as a therapeutic option to patients with symptomatic chronic hypoventilation. There is, however, a paucity of solid data on factors that could affect prognosis in patients on home ventilation. In the present study, our aim was to study several factors in these patients with potential influence on survival. We examined 1526 adult patients from
Övning ger en unik möjlighet att vara reflekterande och att ha sitt lärande i sina egna händer. Det är en mångfacetterad utmaning och en livslång process att utvecklas som musiker. En litteratur och forskningsöversikt relaterad till övning inleder denna uppsats. Denna kvalitativa aktionsforskande studie har som huvudsyfte att undersöka hur tio av mina pianoelevers övningsprocess vid instrumentet sTitle: Practising and reflecting - piano students' view Practicing gives a unique opportunity to be reflective and to have the learning process in our own hands. To develop as a musician is a multifaceted challenge and a life-long process. The first part of this study is devoted to a review of literature and previous studies in the field. The aim of the following qualitative action research pr
Education is considered to be one of the most important tools for enabling the transition to a sustainable society, and it is commonly agreed that education for sustainable development (ESD) should be pluralistic, democratic and promote critical thinking. However, there are indications that education might be dominated by green consumerist approaches to solving environmental problems. If this is t
Large eddy simulations (LES) of confined turbulent swirling flows in a model dump combustor are carried out. The simulations are based on a high-order finite difference method on a Cartesian grid, with the sub-grid scale stress tensor modelled using a scale-similarity model. The aims of this work are to study the physics of the flow and to evaluate the performance of LES method for simulation of t
The Price of Democracy and the Value of Literature : Books, Politics, and the Literary Market with Respect to the 2002 Reduction in VAT on Books in Sweden In 2002 the VAT (value added tax) on books in Sweden was reduced from 25% to 6 %. The reduction was effected in response to a cultural policy, whose aim was to ”improve the conditions for literature and reading” and ”stimulate a diversifed out
Background: Saccharification and fermentation of pretreated lignocellulosic materials, such as spruce, should be performed at high solids contents in order to reduce the cost of the produced bioethanol. However, this has been shown to result in reduced ethanol yields or a complete lack of ethanol production. Previous studies have shown inconsistent results when prehydrolysis is performed at a high
