Uppsatsens ämne är det utökade skyddet för kända varumärken, syftet med uppsatsen är att beskriva och analysera förutsättningarna och gränserna för det utökade skyddet för kända varumärken inom varumärkeslagen. För att uppnå syftet har följande frågeställningar ställts: Vad innebär kravet att ett varukännetecken ska vara känt inom en betydande del av omsättningskretsen? Vad innebär att användningeThe subject of the thesis is the extended protection for reputed trademarks. The purpose of the thesis is to describe and analyze the conditions and limits for the extended protection of well-known trademarks within trademark law. To achieve this purpose, the following research questions are addressed: What does the requirement that a sign must be known within a substantial part of the relevant pu

What would it mean for a building to never be finished? This thesis starts from that question. Looking at informal settlements, specifically the umkhukhu in South African townships , buildings there grow bit by bit, use whatever is available, get taken apart and rebuilt. There is no completion date. The thesis takes that seriously, not as something to fix, but as a way of thinking about what h

Framtida samhällsutmaningar och ett ökat behov av teknisk kompetens gör det viktigt att förstå hur en bredare grupp unga kan attraheras till ingenjörsyrket. Föreliggande studie undersöker hur olika framställningar av en ingenjörsroll påverkar ungas intresse för yrket. Studien utgår från målkongruensteorin som förklarar att karriärintresse påverkas av huruvida individer uppfattar att ett yrke kan uFuture societal challenges and the need for technical competence highlight the importance of understanding how engineering can attract a broader group of young people. The present study examines how different framings of an engineering role influence young people’s interest in the occupation. The study was based on Goal Congruity Theory, which suggests that career interest is shaped by whether peo

The global decline of seagrass meadows has increased the need for effective restoration strategies, yet recovery is often limited by physical environmental stressors. This thesis investigates the hydrodynamic thresholds influencing seagrass seedling survival and recruitment along the Adelaide coastline in Gulf St. Vincent, South Australia. The study focuses on two sites with similar environmental

The fields of cultural tourism and heritage management are gaining attention for their potential to be better linked, particularly in terms of practical applications. This paper proposes a taxonomy of heritage resources and related heritage-based tourism types and their linkages for specific case study areas, building on the established product class approach in cultural tourism studies. The resea

Introduction: Cervical cancer represents a significant public health challenge worldwide. To improve screening accessibility and participation, we implemented vaginal human papilloma virus (HPV) self-sampling as part of an organized cervical cancer prevention strategy. This study aimed to evaluate the implementation and outcomes of the self-sampling program in a real-world setting. Material and Me

Human pluripotent stem cell-derived in vitro models, combined with advances in high-content live-cell calcium imaging, provide a powerful platform for disease modeling and drug screening. However, most calcium imaging analysis tools have been developed for in vivo applications with suboptimal features for processing data from cultured neurons. Here, we present LUMIN (Live-cell User Module for Imag

Al-Ga-based alloys are promising carriers of renewable energy, which can provide hydrogen by hydrolysis in challenging working environments. Manipulating their performance by different process conditions and comprehending the mechanisms are important for achieving directional design synthesis of alloys and enhancing their practicality. This study presents a novel approach to optimizing the hydroge

A high-resolution integrated bio-chemostratigraphic framework is established for the upper Tremadocian to lower Floian (Lower Ordovician) succession of the North China Block, based on new conodont and carbon isotope (δ13Ccarb) data from the Jiguanshan and Wudingshan sections in Liaoning Province, northeastern China. Thirty conodont species of 19 genera were identified from the two sections. Based

A quantitative understanding of the hydro-environmental factors that influence the occurrence of agricultural drought events would enable more strategic climate change adaptation and drought management plans. Practical drought hazard mapping remains challenging due to possible exclusion of the most pertinent drought drivers, and to the use of inadequate predictive models that cannot describe droug

Considering the ever increasing financial damages of floods and the need to manage the surface water, the use of new and more sufficient methods seems to be necessary. Therefore, the present study aims to investigate capability of the Gamma, Beta, Chi-square, and Weibull probability distribution functions (PDFs) for flood hydrograph derivation. The present study was conducted in the Bar watershed,

PurposeThis study aims to investigate how stakeholder cocreation in 3D city mapping initiatives can extend the role of digital urban platforms beyond administrative efficiency toward the negotiation and enhancement of place attractiveness. Drawing on a participatory case study of Trollhättan, Sweden, the paper explores the needs, expectations and aspirations articulated by diverse stakeholder grou

IntroductionAnal squamous cell carcinoma (ASCC) is an HPV-related tumor primarily treated with concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CRT). Salvage surgery is reserved for patients with residual or recurrent disease following CRT, representing a highly selected, high-risk subgroup. Population-based data on outcomes and prognostic factors after salvage surgery are limited. This study aimed to assess overall

Evaluating the repellency of essential oils against Tetranychus urticae requires robust methodologies to detect time-dependent changes in their efficacy, due to differential efficacy, volatility, and sustained effectiveness. This study introduces the Pole-dance bioassay, a novel no-choice method optimized for high-throughput screening of time-dependent repellency, demonstrated through tests on twe

Recognizing the challenges in using botanicals as sustainable pest control agents due to compositional variation, this study addresses the limitations of traditional component-based approaches such as Hewlett and Plackett or Wadley’s models. Based on the assumption of noninteractivity among constituents, these models often fail to predict outcomes accurately due to dynamic intermolecular interacti

Along with the gradually accelerated urbanization process, simulating and predicting the future pattern of the city is of great importance to the prediction and prevention of some environmental, economic and urban issues. Previous studies have generally integrated traditional machine learning with cellular automaton (CA) models to simulate urban development. Nevertheless, difficulties still exist

OBJECTIVES: Early identification of treatment response in brain metastases remains clinically challenging. This study explores tensor-valued diffusion MRI (dMRI), specifically q-space trajectory imaging (QTI), as a novel source of early imaging biomarkers during stereotactic radiotherapy (SRT).METHODS: Twenty-six patients with brain metastases were enrolled; thirteen met quality and completeness c
