With the large amount of surveillance cameras in our public spaces there has been much discussion about their effects on privacy. Axis communications has an algorithm that tries to remedy this by making it hard to see who is in an image but still have it possible for a neural network to detect that there is a person present. This thesis explores how this algorithm needs to be adapted to be implem

Broad public contention against nuclear energy can be observed as a new phenomenon in Japanese society after the 2011 Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant accident. This study aimed to detect an ample explanation about why the emergence of such a protest movement did only occur after the direct experience of a critical event and did not happen before. Discrediting a sole and simple grievance-base

This paper examines if competition between internet service providers using city networks leads to lower prices. The research tests the theory of the circular city that in which the price depends on the marginal cost as well as the number of competitors in the market. Based on this theory the cost of a 100 Mbits connection should move towards marginal cost if there are more internet service provid

In this master thesis we study and implement a model for market risk in a portfolio consisting of both stock and bond indices. It is based on an article by Glasserman, Heidelberger and Shahabuddin from year 2002. The model uses the assumption that the joint distribution of the losses follows a multivariate t-distribution. The model also uses Monte Carlo simulations with importance sampling in orde

Det är inte ovanligt att parterna i en nationell tvist kommer från olika länder. När en tvist mellan parter med olika internationell anknytning initieras uppkommer ibland frågor om vilket lands domstol som är behörig att pröva tvisten och vilket lands lag som ska gälla för tvisten. En något mer undanskymd fråga inom det internationella rättssamfundet, men som likväl kan ge upphov till jurisdiktionIt is not uncommon for parties to a domestic dispute to come from different countries. When a dispute between parties with different international connections is initiated, questions sometimes arise as to which country’s court has jurisdiction to hear the dispute and which country’s law should apply to the dispute. A somewhat more obscure issue within the international legal community, but which c

I uppsatsen undersöks lagregleringen om överskottsinformation vid användning av hemliga tvångsmedel i rättegångsbalken. Överskottsinformation är information som har med annat att göra än den utredning den hemliga tvångsåtgärden användes för. Lagändringen år 2023 innebär att informationen uttryckligen får användas för ”andra ändamål” än den ursprungliga utredningen vilket kan avse brott eller helt The essay examines the legal regulation on excess information when using secret measures of surveillance in the Code of Judicial Procedure . Excess information is information that pertains to matters other than the investigation for which the secret measure of surveillance was used. The 2023 legislative amendment explicitly allows the information to be used for “other purposes” than the original i

The goal of the present work is to investigate possible improvements to established shell-model interactions concerning atomic nuclei in the mass A=90, N=Z regime. These investigations consist of generating energy spectra for the isotopes Pd-94, Cd-94, Ag-95, and Cd-95 close to the proton drip line, as well as an investigation of the transition probabilities between selected states in Ag-95.

I juli 2023 tillsatte regeringen en utredning i syfte att genomföra en övergri- pande översyn av straffskalorna samt lägga fram förslag till ett reformerat och mer rättvist påföljdssystem. Regeringen framhåller i direktivet att straffsyste- met bör uttrycka en tydligare klandervärdering av brottsliga gärningar för att undvika att brottsoffer upplever rättsprocessen som ytterligare en kränkning. DeIn July 2023, the Swedish government appointed an inquiry with the purpose of conducting a comprehensive review of the penalty scales and presenting proposals for a reformed and fairer penalty system. The government empha- sizes in the directive that the penal system should express a clearer condem- nation of the blameworthiness of criminal acts in order to avoid that victims experience the legal

This project work covers the design and construction of a new probe system for hot gas analysis in an entrained flow gasifier. The aim is a probe that can be used more flexibly than the present system. As a further aim, the condensation of trace materials has to be prevented. First, a short overview over current techniques to analyse the product gas in a gasification process is given. Continuing,

The aim of this study was to examine life stories narrated in autobiographies by women, who have been the subjects of honour-based violence. The aim of this study was also to analyse which representations and consequences/implications narratives delineated have in the general comprehension of this specific kind of violence. In using a narrative method we chose to take a qualitative, and constructi

A poor air quality creates problems in growing and industrialized cities. It is known that there is a significant correlation between rising air pollutions and rising numbers of people getting sick of and killed by respiratory diseases. In this study, I investigate how it is possible to use green infrastructure to increase urban ecosystem services that reduce the level of air pollution within the

In the European Union’s (EU) Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS), free allocation of emissions allowances to avoid carbon leakage has resulted in a distorted pricing signal and a failure to reduce emissions in the most polluting industries. A Border Carbon Adjustment (BCA), a mechanism which would apply a tariff to imported goods based on their embedded carbon content, has been suggested as a solution.

This thesis examines the effect of cognates on codeswitching in planned speech production in trilinguals, which has previously been unexplored. Previous studies on cognates and codeswitching have primarily focused on cognate facilitation effects in spontaneous speech in bilinguals. While experimental studies have gradually acknowledged the importance of investigating codeswitching in a sentence co

Ämnesplanen i svenska i gymnasiet ska bygga på men inte överlappa kursplanen i svenska i grundskolan. Grammatiken beskrivs endast implicit i Svenska 1 och omnämns explicit först i Svenska 2. Detta innebär att grammatikundervisning och metaspråk i svenskämnet på gymnasiet i hög grad är beroende av elevernas grammatiska förkunskaper från grundskolan. Syftet var att undersöka hur svensklärare hanteraThe syllabus in Swedish in upper secondary school should be based on, but not overlap, the syllabus in Swedish in primary school. Grammar is only implicitly described in Swedish 1 and is explicitly mentioned only once you move on to Swedish 2. This means that grammar teaching and metalanguage in Swedish in upper secondary school is to a large extent dependent on the students' prior grammatical

Management, due to its interdependence with many contingent factors of the world, is a concept in continuous evolution. One of the factors that drive this evolution is the workforce, which is also constantly changing. However, despite the importance of considering the expectations of the workforce towards management, more attention has to be paid to this factor in the discussion on management. The

Det pågår just nu en omställning från fossila till förnyelsebara energiresurser. Exempel på förnyelsebara resurser är sol-, vind- och vattenkraft. Problemet är att energiproduktionen är beroende av att solen skiner, vinden blåser eller att vattnet flödar. Lösningen kan vara att lagra energin i smältsalter. I det här projektet utvecklades metoder för att internt kunna studera smältsaltskorrosion avMolten salt applications are challenging from a material perspective. This degree project was carried out at Alfa Laval to give them a better understanding of the corrosion of solar salt on the standard heat exchanger material stainless steel 321. Similar tests have previously been performed externally. By developing test methods for in-house corrosion testing time and money can be saved. In thi

I samband med brottsbalkens ikraftträdande år 1965 togs uppdelningen mellan otillräkneliga och tillräkneliga lagöverträdare bort från svensk rätt. Reformen innebar att även personer med allvarliga psykiska störningar kunde anses vara straffrättsligt ansvariga för sina handlingar och bli föremål för rättsskipningens påföljdssystem. Sedan tillräknelighetsläran togs bort har det förts en kontinuerligIn most legal systems around the world, mentally disturbed offenders are exempt from criminal responsibility and therefore go unpunished. When The Swedish Penal Code was introduced in 1965 this exemption was removed from Swedish law. From this point forward, mentally disturbed offenders have been held accountable for their actions and the mental disorder is instead considered when deciding the app

Under de senaste årtiondena har Brå publicerat två rapporter som visat att invandrade personer samt personer med utländsk bakgrund är överrepresenterade bland de som registreras för brott. Intresset för denna fråga växer i takt med att invandringen till Sverige ökar. Situationen utnyttjas av nationalistiska och socialkonservativa partier och samhällsklimatet har nu hårdnat till den grad att den ökOver the past decades, The Swedish National Council for Crime Prevention has conducted two studies showing that immigrants in Sweden and people with foreign backgrounds are overrepresented amongst crime suspects. As migration to Sweden increases these studies have received more attention. Nationalistic and social conservative parties are taking advantage of the situation, why the political climate

A Switched Reluctance Machine (SRM) is evaluated in terms of torque quality and speed ripple for a particular pump application. The aim is to give BorgWarner insight into the control methodology and possible applications for a Switched Reluctance Machine. The SRM is also compared to their current BLDC machine, used as an oil pump in their torque transfer applications. The evaluation and implementa
