The aim of this thesis is to study Swedish archaeological finds of aurochs (Bos primigenius) in order to complement the existing knowledge about the aurochs that is based on the sub fossil material. This thesis presents all the finds of aurochs that has been made in archaeological context in Sweden, in order to see if the humans had different hunting strategies in different geographic locations.

Homelessness is a major concern in todays society. Nevertheless, the place of the church S:ta Clara in Stockholm, Sweden, has an individual will to diminish homeless individuals and improve their standard of living. The purpose of this bachelor’s thesis is to investigate the place and space of S:ta Clara. It’s about the everyday life of homeless individuals who socialize and could obtain security

Justifying Rational Planning: on the indeterminacy of pragmatic considerations Justifying Rational Choice: the role of success* Bruno Verbeek Leiden University, Netherlands §1 Introduction The theory of rational choice can be interpreted in several ways. One can regard the theory as a representing the choices of agents. The theory is interpreted as an empirical hypothesis for further research. Alt

Forskare Mina vetenskapliga intressen täcker ett brett område i skärningspunkten mellan biologi och beräkningsvetenskap. Den forskning jag bedrivit kan beskrivas som en blandning av modellering på olika detaljnivå – ofta utifrån nätverk av gener – och utveckling av algoritmer och mjukvara.

In this thesis, a few possible methods to clean nuisance signals from ion current measurements are explored. Ion current measurements can be used to optimise a combustion engine, but interference from the ignition system coupled with clipping caused by limitations in the measurement equipment limit the amount of data that can be extracted. This thesis develops a model which is used for simulation

Seaweed cultivation is a large industry worldwide, but production in Europe is small compared to production in Asian countries. In the EU, the motivations for seaweed farming may be seen from two perspectives; one being economic growth through biomass production and the other being the provisioning of ecosystem services such as mitigating eutrophication. In this paper, we assess the economic potenSeaweed cultivation is a large industry worldwide, but production in Europe is small compared to production in Asian countries.

The stepwise stabililty constants, Kn for the bromo aqua complexes PtBrn−1(H2O)7−n5−n; n=4, 5, 6, formed in the successive acid hydrolyses of PtBr62−, have been determined to be K6=(.19±0.1) x 103 M−1, K5= (1.0±0.2) x 104 M−1 and K4=(1.1±0.2) x 105 M−1. A bromide assisted mechanism is proposed for the bromide anations of PtBr4(H2O)2 and PtBr5H2O-. Both these reactions are found to be first order wThe stepwise stabililty constants, Kn for the bromo aqua complexes PtBrn−1(H2O)7−n5−n; n=4, 5, 6, formed in the successive acid hydrolyses of PtBr62−, have been determined to be K6=(.19±0.1) x 103 M−1, K5= (1.0±0.2) x 104 M−1 and K4=(1.1±0.2) x 105 M−1.

Popular Abstract in English The energy demands of human society are huge and will keep increasing for the foreseeable future. Fossil fuels have largely been able to meet those demands for the last centuries, but issues of sustainability and global warming have brought about a need for alternative energy sources. The emission of the sun supplies earth with an energy that is many thousand times largOrganic solar cells employing fullerenes blended with conjugated polymers as the main light-absorbing material have achieved power conversion efficiencies exceeding 10%. They hold promise as an alternative energy source with many advantages in terms of long-term sustainability and reduced greenhouse gas emissions. Detailed information on the electronic and geometric structure of the molecules invo

Failures due to instability phenomena will happen suddenly and can cause the whole structure to collapse. It’s therefore in the engineer’s best interest to have a good knowledge about these phenomena. One example of instability phenomena is column buckling, which is the main focus of this thesis. The main cases that are being evaluated have a single brace in the middle of a timber column with hi

This study looks at the investment decision-making process of institutional Venture Capitalists. Prior research has shown that general criteria for the valuation of new ventures have not significantly changed over time. Studies looking at the stage-specific criteria however consider different factors important. Using the verbal protocol method in the screening phase with two venture capitalists, w

The aim of the thesis is to investigate livelihoods of rural households and the role agriculture and nonfarm economy play in them. More specifically, the paper investigates income generation and income diversification strategies employed by rural households in the northern part of Kyrgyzstan. Kyrgyzstan was one of the poorest Soviet Republics, which for nearly 20 nears since independence has been

Forty alkaliphiles, which were isolated from samples collected in Eastern Africa, have been screened for production of antibacterial compounds. One of these isolates, Bacillus halodurans B20, was able to produce a prominent amount of antibacterial activity against a Gram-positive bacteria on agar plates [paper I] and selected for further study. Production of the active compound in submerged culti

Popular Abstract in English Every year globally, an estimated 1.7 million women are diagnosed with breast cancer, while over half a million are killed by this disease. The principal cause of death is metastasis, which is the spreading of the cancer cells from the breast to other vital organs like the brain, liver or lungs, resulting in organ failure and subsequently death. Even though the past decMetastasis is a complex process that remains a major challenge in the clinical management of cancer, because most cancer-related deaths are attributed to disseminated disease rather than the primary tumor. Despite the significant advances in the prediction of prognosis, and therapeutic management of primary breast cancers, coupled with the substantial improvement in our understanding of the molecu

In my thesis I have chosen to immerse myself in the regional power line network and how it will be built. I have chosen this topic because it is a significant question today and in the future. The investments and technical choices made today, will affect the outcome on the society of tomorrow. When the local power line network was rebuilt, after the hurricane Gudrun in the year 2005, it implied a
