An industrial model of a dynamic system is usually not just a set of differential equations. External inputs acting on the system are common, such as an external force acting on a body or wind pressing on a car. Update of these inputs needs to be handled by the numerical solver in an efficient way.In dynamical simulation, multistep methods are commonly used. A multistep method uses the solution hi

This article examines the changing role of the Swedish state in employmentand welfare regulation in an environment that has become more market driven,commodified, and Europeanized. It begins with a theoretical reflection on the role of the state in capitalist development and a review of the recent debate on the spatiality of state regulation: the state as employer, redistributor, and arbiter, and

This thesis analyses the energy consumption of the Italian and Swedish residential sector during the last two decades. It has two main purposes: (1) to test the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) hypothesis that stipulate a decoupling relation between environmental harm and economic growth and (2) to investigate on four factors that could explain such decoupling relation. The key factors are the ch

Received remittances around the world has experienced a large increase during the last decades. This study investigates the effect that remittances have on economic growth, by using annual panel data from 81 countries from the last four decades. In the paper we divide our data into seven different periods to observe the long-term relationship through regression analysis. Our results indicate that

Min utgångspunkt har varit de senaste årens trendbrott i boendepreferenser, där storstäderna inte växer i samma takt som tidigare. Allt fler söker sig till platser med stort utbud av småhus, närhet till natur, goda förbindelser till arbete och rimligare kvadratmeterpriser. Till följd av detta har flera mindre kommuner och orter fått en skjuts i befolkningstillväxt. En av dessa kommuner är min eg

After the financial crisis of 2008, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision created the latest Accord for capital requirements: The Basel III Accord. Basel III set higher requirements for both quantity and quality of capital, with the aim to mitigate systemic risk. Previous literature has however shown that high capital requirements have been associated with a lower performance of banks’ stock

Med en historia fylld av kolonialisering och konflikt har väst getts en dominerande position utefter vilken de fått en makt att definiera ”det annorlunda” och "främmande”. Historiskt främmande religioner, som islam, har därigenom förklarats utefter västerländska referensramar. Syftet med vår uppsats är att undersöka hur bilden av islam ser ut i dagens svenska nyhetsmedier och genom en jäm

Emanating from Putnam’s two-level game theory of international negotiations, the thesis analyse the interplay between the domestic, the supranational and the international level in the European Union, when negotiating the Bra War with China. The thesis expands Putnam’s theory into a three-level game theory in order to better understand the complexity of the European Union. The work concludes five

Nowadays, during the current COVID-19 pandemic, consumers increasingly seek foods that not only fulfill the basic need (i.e., satisfying hunger) but also enhance human health and well-being. As a result, more attention has been given to some kinds of foods, termed " superfoods," making big claims about their richness in valuable nutrients and bioactive compounds as well as their capability to prev

A high-resolution study of the (e,e'p) reaction on Helium-4 was carried out at the Institut fuer Kernphysik in Mainz, Germany. The measurements were done in parallel kinematics (momentum transfer q=685 MeV/c, energy transfer omega=334 MeV) at different incident beam energies in order to enable the Rosenbluth separation of the longitudinal and transverse response functions.

The aim of the paper was to investigate EFL (English as a foreign language) primary school teachers’ beliefs regarding their teaching methods used in English at grade 5 in the classroom, which was a part of my PhD research (Son, 2018). Interviews (teachers at Grade 5 observed classes; Responses N=2, Sweden and N=3, Vietnam) and questionnaires to English teachers at grade 5 in Swedish and Vietnames

The arctic tern Sterna paradisaea completes the longest known annual return migration on Earth, traveling between breeding sites in the northern arctic and temperate regions and survival/molt areas in the Antarctic pack-ice zone. Salomonsen (1967, Biologiske Meddelelser, Copenhagen Danske Videnskabernes Selskab, 24, 1) put forward a hypothetical comprehensive interpretation of this global migratio

This chapter explains that the causation inquiry performed by the European Court of Human Rights for determining breach of positive obligations has to be understood in light of the normative structural considerations that underpin state responsibility under the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR). In particular, the responsibility system is not shaped by the corrective justice rationale tha

The relationship between sustainability and conflict is complex and often hard to define, yet the consequences of interaction can be catastrophic. Unsustainable practices and their consequences for the environment can contribute to conflict. War—and the energy and resource costs of preparing for war—can also have terrible impacts on the environment. In this Voices, we ask how sustainability and en

This paper investigates the treatment of antonymy in Collins COBUILD Advanced Learner’s English Dictionary (2003) in order to find out what kinds of headwords are provided with antonyms as part of their definitions and also discusses the principles for antonym inclusion in the entries. CCALED includes canonical antonyms such as good/bad and dead/alive, as well as more contextually restricted pairi
