Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) are promising candidates for future energy systems due to their ability to use renewable fuels and that they are energy efficient. A fully coupled two-dimensional computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model based on the finite element method (using COMSOL Multiphysics) is developed to describe an intermediate temperature SOFC single cell. Governing equations for various
Popular Abstract in Swedish Studien avser medicinsk problemlösning i sitt organisatoriska sammanhang i den svenska sjukvårdsorganisationen. Det huvudsakliga syftet är att visa hur olika typer av medicinsk problemlösning påverkas av organisationsstrukturen. För att åstadkomma detta utvecklas en typologi för medicinska problemlösningsprocesser huvudsakligen baserad på skillnader i den medicinska tekThis study is about medical problem-solving within its organisational context, the Swedish health-care organisation. The main purpose is to demonstrate how different types of medical problem-solving are affected by the structure of the health-care organisation. This involves the construction of a typology of medical problem-solving processes, and it is argued that the main characteristics of these
Background: Suspected appendicitis is one of the most common indications for acute laparotomy or laparoscopy. The negative laparotomy and laparoscopy rates are high, often in the range of 15-30%, and especially high in some groups of patients such as women of child-bearing age and young patients. Different scoring systems have been introduced in order to improve diagnostic accuracy. The aim of the
I början av år 2020 fick fallet “Lilla hjärtat” stor medial uppmärksamhet. Fallet illustrerar spänningen mellan skydd, återförening och kontinuitet som finns inbyggd i tvångsvården av barn. För det första ska lagstiftningen tillgodose barns rätt till skydd – även från sina föräldrar. Samtidigt har barn en rätt till sina föräldrar, även om barnet har behövt skiljas från dem av skyddsskäl. Barnets sAt the beginning of 2020, the ”Little heart” case received a lot of media attention. The case illustrates the tension between child protection, reunification and continuity that is built into the compulsory care of children. Firstly, the legislation must secure children's right to protection – even from their parents. At the same time, children have a right to their parents, even if the child
Studiens syfte är att undersöka hur svensklärare arbetar med skrivundervisning generellt och hur svensklärare arbetar specifikt för att stötta flickor med ADHD. Datainsamlingen skedde under hösten 2020 genom semistrukturerade kvalitativa intervjuer över Zoom. Antalet svarande var tre lärare från högstadieskolan och en lärare från gymnasieskolan. Svaren jämfördes och ställdes mot varandra. ResultatThe aim of the study is to investigate how teachers of Swedish work with teaching writing in general and specifically to support girls with ADHD. The data collection took place during the autumn of 2020 through semi structured qualitative interviews conducted over Zoom. Three teachers from year 7 9 in the comprehensive school and one teacher from the Upper Secondary school part took in the intervi
Anaerobic digestion of dewatered-sewage sludge using continuous stirred tank reactors (CSTRs) in duplicates was evaluated under thermophilic (50 degrees C) and mesophilic (37 degrees C) conditions over a range of nine solid retention times (SRTs). The 35- and 30-day SRTs were designed to simulate a full-scale plant operation while 25-, 20-, 15- and 12-day SRTs were planned to evaluate process perf
När föräldrar väljer att separera från varandra aktualiseras många rättsliga frågor som berör barnet. Föräldrar kan befinna sig i en konfliktfylld situation. Ibland kan konflikten mellan föräldrarna vara så djup att de inte kan komma överens om vem som ska ha vårdnaden om barnen, var barnen ska bo eller hur umgänget med en av föräldrarna ska se ut. De flesta föräldrar kan komma överens om frågornaWhen parents decide to separate from each other many legal issues concerning their child arises. Parents can find themselves in a very contentious situation. Sometimes the conflict can be so deep that the parents cannot agree on who should have custody of the child, where the child will live or how one parents visitation rights should be formed. Most parents can reach an agreement on their own, bu
Syftet med denna uppsats är att redogöra för gällande rätt kring utevarohandläggning i brottmål samt närmare belysa den problematik som kan uppkomma vid handläggningen. Detta sker med hjälp av den rättsdogmatiska metoden. En stor del av uppsatsen riktar in sig på frågan om rätten kan utreda saken tillfredsställande samt utföra en ändamålsenlig bevisvärdering om den tilltalade inte är närvarande viThe purpose of this essay is to examine the law of trial in the absence of the defendant in criminal cases (trial in absentia) and illuminate the complex of problems that can arise during processing. This is done by using the legal dogmatic method. A substantial part of the paper addresses the question of whether the court can investigate the case satisfactorily and carry out an appropriate evalua
Nowadays for small-scale power generation there are electrochemical batteries and mini engines. Many efforts have been done for improving the power density of the batteries but unfortunately the value of 1 MJ/kg seems to be asymptotic. If the energy source is an organic fuel which has an energy density of around 29 MJ/kg with a minimum overall efficiency of only 3.5%, this device would surpass the
The spoilage flora of refrigerated raw and pasteurized milk was classified and identified by numerical phenotypic analysis. Isolations of bacteria were made at a defined spoilage stage, when the total aerobic count was 106-107 cfu per ml. The secondary flora of ripened Swedish and Norwegian cheeses was investigated by numerical analysis. Aeromonas and Enterobacteriaceae spp. isolated from the spoi
Hedersrelaterat våld och förtryck blev känt i Sverige under 1990-talet, då de första uppmärksammade hedersmorden begicks i landet. Morden på Sara, Pela och Fadime väckte stor debatt i Sverige och man försökte hitta förklaringar till hur detta kunde inträffa och framförallt varför. Hedersrelaterat våld skiljer sig från andra våldsformer mot kvinnor på ett flertal sätt. Det som är viktigt att framHonour-related violence and oppression became known in Sweden during the 1990s, when the first high-profile honour murders were committed in the country. The murders of Sara, Pela and Fadime raised an intensive debate in Sweden and we tried to find explanations for how this could have happened, and above all why. Honour-related violence differs from other forms of violence against women in severa
Idag är könsdiskriminerande reklam inte förbjudet i Sverige. Marknadsdomstolen har fastslagit att den typen av reklam inte faller under MFL:s tillämpningsområde. Istället sköts tillsynen av stiftelsen RO som fungerar som näringslivets självreglering. Huruvida könsdiskriminerande reklam bör förbjudas i lag eller inte har varit uppe för diskussion vid ett flertal tillfällen. Flera utredningar har Today, sexist advertisement is not illegal in Sweden. MD has decided that MFL is not applicable on that kind of advertising. Instead, the industry regulates itself through the RO foundations supervision. They use certain criteria established by the ICC and ERK to determine whether advertisement is sexist or not. Although, this system might be seen as ineffective since RO has no right to issue sanc
I fokus för denna mastersuppsats står den form av turism som går under benämningen VFR, Visiting Friends and Relatives. Syftet är att med etnografiska metoder undersöka hur kineser bosatta i Sverige fungerar som värdar vid besök av vänner och släktingar från hemlandet. Ett mål är att resultaten i form av nya kunskaper och insikter om värdskapsstrategier och skapandet av gästfria miljöer skall bidrThis thesis offers an ethnographic study of the co-present encounters between Chinese migrant hosts and the guests from their home country. It aims to contribute to the qualitative research on the visiting friends and relatives (VFR) phenomenon and to deliver insights to the tourism industry in terms of hosting strategies and the construction of a hospitable space. Taking on the migrant hosts’ pe
Over the coming decades, Europe is one of the first parts of the world to face a gradual decline of its population which in turn will lead to a sustained process of aging in society. Though some European countries are more affected than others, this phenomenon is shared by most of the post-industrial societies of Western Europe. Among other economic and social effects, these radical changes will p
This thesis examines cluster and innovation system theory’s answer to why some firms, and not others, based in particular nations achieve international success in distinct segments, and the European Union’s recent policy efforts based on such theories. On this background a discussion on the changes needed in national economic policymaking among EU Member States when the EU starts taking a cluster
The immunosuppressant drug cyclosporin A (CsA) is considered to be inherently protective in conditions of ischemia, e.g. in hepatic and cardiac tissue. However, investigations of effects of CsA on neuronal tissue have been contradictory, probably because the blood-brain barrier (BBB) is virtually impermeable to CsA. In the present study, we exploited the finding that the insertion of a syringe nee
The purpose of this thesis is to investigate whether Japan achieves a competitive advantage through digital technologies in order to enhance its socio-economic prosperity in this highly connected world. The author analysed the competitive advantage of Japan’s ICT sector with a particular focus on IoT through Porter’s Diamond Model of National Competitive Advantage. The main motive behind choosing
In order to study and evaluate the care provided at the Intensive Care Unit (ICU), an accurate model to assess severity of illness and predict patient mortality based on admission data is required. Since 1983, the Simplified Acute Physiology Score (SAPS) based on logistic regression (LR) has become one of the international standards for this purpose and is used in Sweden for adults. While being a
The aim of this paper is to examine what meanings “age” was given when Swedish psychiatric institutions were defining, categorising and caring for their patients from 1850 to 1970. The paper focuses on institutional psychiatry’s perspectives on individuals of advanced age and on the way that these individuals were understood in terms directly or indirectly associated with age. The majority of aged
