Dagens stadsbyggnadsprojekt är komplexa och många funktioner ska trängas på en liten yta i våra städer. I ett försök att ge grönstruktur i städer större plats har flera kommuner runt om i landet börjat ställa krav kring grönytefaktor; ett sätt att mäta mängden grönska på tomter i staden. I denna studie undersöktes vilken effekt detta krav har på samhällsbyggandet och hur det fungerar i samspelet mAbstract Title: Green Area Factor in affect – How does the implementation of Green Area Factor requirements work in Sweden today?

Being self-organizing is a core element of successful Scrum teams. Such teams require a high level of autonomy to perform, yet they operate within the context of an organization and its rules. Scrum teams should decide their work process, what to work on and how to deliver value for customers. The existing literature on Scrum teams investigates the challenges Scrum teams face in their daily life o

I dagens samhälle utövar en ansenlig del av världens befolkning inte en tillräckligt mycket fysisk aktivitet; konsekvenserna är omtalade och välkända, en stor del av framförallt de industrialiserade ländernas befolkning är överviktig, andelen som drabbas av hjärt- och kärlsjukdomar växer och typ 2 diabetes sprids snabbt över världen. Den bristande fysiska aktiviteten förekommer inte endast hos vuxIn today’s society many children are struggling to exercise enough, this is especially the case for children with severe cerebral palsy, who often spend much time sedentary, which leads to several serious health risks. To mitigate these risks, the standard care in Sweden has been a static standing training (StS) regime. However, this training regime is no magic bullet, due to the relatively low in

The Cocktail party problem is a known problem within audiology and relates to a person’s ability to understand and separate speech from a noisy background with multiple speakers. This master’s thesis, in collaboration with Eriksholm Research Center, part of the company Oticon, developed a real-time system to help people with Hearing Impairment (HI) handle this problem by using a microphone array a

Denna uppsats behandlar det straffrättsliga begreppet samtycke som är en av ansvarsfrihetsgrunderna i svensk rätt. Syftet i uppsatsen är att besvara när samtycke blir relevant att åberopa och när det tillämpas. I ansvarsfrihetsgrunden samtycke innefattas två centrala rekvisit: att samtycket är giltigt samt att gärningen inte är oförsvarlig. Arbetet koncentrerar sig på samtycke till våldsbrott och This paper examines and analyzes the conception of consent in Swedish criminal law. The purpose of the paper is to answer the question when consent becomes relevant to discuss and to examine when it should be applicable. The conception of consent contents two necessary prerequisites: it has to be a valid consent and the criminal act can’t be indefensible. The work of the paper concentrates in crim

This is the report of a thesis work about controlling an autonomous wheel loader. The objective of the work was to create a complete prototype of an autonomous wheel loader that can operate without any seated driver and without any kind of remote controlling. Another important objective was that this prototype needs to support future development of the autonomous wheel loader. The work was complet

Comparing FB tangential neurons Every living person has got a brain (even if we sometime question it!) The same goes for all other animals, including insects. Theirs are, however, much smaller and simpler. From a practical (and ethical) standpoint, it is therefore much easier to study insect brains than human brains. One interesting field of study is the navigational ability of insects. The prim

The general goal of the Swedish drug policy is to create a society free from narcotics. The government aims to reach this goal with a restrictive policy where consumption of narcotics is illegal, which is very uncommon in democratic countries. This policy has in later years been criticized due to the high number of deaths related to drug use in Sweden and little has been done by the government to

Digitaliseringen har i stor utsträckning revolutionerat sättet som företagen gör affärer på. Det finns inte längre samma behov av fysiska platser för affärsverksamheter eftersom teknologin har skapat virtuella platser där företag kan sälja både varor och tjänster utan att överhuvudtaget sätta en fot i jurisdiktionen. Emellertid har reglerna om fast driftställe alltsedan 1920-talet präglats av att The digitalisation has largely revolutionized the way companies do business. There is no longer the same need for physical locations for businesses for the reason that technology has created virtual locations where companies can sell both goods and services without even setting foot in the jurisdiction. However, the rules on permanent establishment have, ever since the 1920’s, been characterized b

Strain-induced tendinopathy is a common injury in both human and equine athletes, with increasing incidence associated with greater involvement in sport and an increasingly aged population. This paper reviews our studies on the abundant non-collagenous protein, cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP), in equine tendons. Its variation between tendon type and site, age and exercise has provided a

The purpose of this study is to describe how the greenhouse gas (GHG) benefits of ethanol from agricultural crops depend on local conditions and calculation methods. The focus is mainly on the fuels used in the ethanol process and biogenic GHG from the soils cultivated. To ensure that "good" ethanol is produced, with reference to GHG benefits, the following demands must be met: (i) ethanol plants

The dissertation can be divided into two parts, the first of which is a detailed analysis of three excavations concerning Mellanbyn in southern Malmö. In the second part I study the more general development of society, relating Mellanbyn to the surrounding area as well as to the region as a whole during Late Bronze Age and the Early Iron Age. The aim can be summed up as being to study the developm

This essay is a comparison of the American and the Swedish labor law systems regarding the right to strike. American unions generally have a tougher time than Swedish unions to get by. Not only do they have to fight the employers, the federal government does not give much support either and the union dislike is widely spread amongst the population. This goes back all the way to the beginning of th

The purpose of this essay was to investigate how multiproblematic families get in contact with treatment units offering family therapy in Lund and especially which theories and methods the therapists use. To pursue this study, literature was searched in libraries, on the internet and six persons, working therapeutic with families in six different treatment units, were interviewed. The result of th

After World War II Sovjet took over Poland with the plan of making it a socialist state in all its meanings, religious as well. That meant changing it from Roman Catholic to secular which turned out to be harder than expected because of the position of the church. The church was a symbol of the nation and a savior of the people and the communist party understood that this would be a process of tra

This paper proposes a typology for provider roles in defining business services. The starting point of the study is the underlying rationale of much of the service purchasing literature that buyers have or can easily access the necessary know-how to procure business services. If this does not hold, the implication is that buying firms would shy away from buying complex services. An alternative per

Virtual reality (VR) has provoked enormous interest in the medical community. In particular, VIR offers therapists new approaches for improving rehabilitation effects. However, most of these VR assistant toots are not very portable, extensible or economical. Due to the vast amount of 3D data, they are not suitable for Internet transfer. Furthermore, in order to run these VR systems smoothly, speci

Substrates present in aggregated forms, such as micelles, are often poorly converted by enzymes. Alkyl glycosides constitute typical examples and the critical micelle concentration (CMC) decreases with increasing length of the alkyl group. In this study, possibilities to hydrolyse alkyl glycosides by glycoside hydrolases were explored, and α-cyclodextrin was used as an agent to form inclusion comp
