People’s obsession over objects and constantly renewing them was the initial core of the project. This led us in the direction of the fast fashion industry. The unrelenting change of trends forces the consumer to continuously update their wardrobe, while the time spans for new trends keep decreasing. The textile industry is one of the largest environmental issues of today. By focusing on outdoor e
Vid en skilsmässa är det ofta osäkert och oklart hur parterna ska göra med boende fram till dess bodelning sker. I många fall flyttar ena maken från den gemensamma bostaden och den andra bor kvar. Maken som flyttar har vanligtvis kostnader för det nya boendet samtidigt som denne måste fortsätta betala de löpande kostnaderna för det gamla, gemensamma boendet. Frågan som uppkommer är då om den kvarbAt a divorce there is often a level of uncertainty to how the parties are going to structure their living situation until the estate division. Most commonly, one spouse moves from the shared accommodation while the other one stays. The moving spouse usually has costs for the new accommodation and is also often required to pay for the old, common place. The upcoming question is if the staying spous
Det har aldrig varit så viktigt att minska kostnader och vara effektiv för att vara konkurrenskraftig på marknaden som det är idag. IKEA står inför stora utmaningar gällande produktionsökning på grund av ökad efterfrågan från marknaden och mål inför 2020. Denna massiva ökning kommer att påverka leverantörer, hjärtat i varuflödet. Den nödvändiga produktionsökningen kommer även att innebära att samaThe importance to cut costs and to be as efficient as possible has never been as important as it is today in order to stay competitive in the market. IKEA are currently facing increasing challenges with the production growth due to a high demand from the market and goals for 2020. This large growth will affect the bottom line of the supply chain, the suppliers. The necessary production growth also
Gambro is one of the biggest developers and manufactures of machines for hemodialysis treatments in the world. One component on their machines, the air level detector (ALD), has been identified to have a possibility to be further improved from usability perspective. The ALD is located at the front of the machine and has the function to hold the venous drip chamber in place and detect whether or no
Det är viktigt att det i ett land finns rättssäkerhetsgarantier. För svensk del är Europeiska konventionen angående skydd för de mänskliga rättigheterna och de grundläggande friheterna en väldigt viktig utgångspunkt. I min framställning har jag studerat vilka krav konventionen ställer på rätten till en domstolsprövning och en rättssäker process, art 6 i Europakonventionen. Med dessa krav i bakhuvuLegal certainty is important in every country. For the Swedish part the European Convention on Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms is a very important starting point and framework. In my presentation, I have studied the requirements that the Convention imposes on the access to court and the entitlement to a fair and public hearing, art 6 of the Convention. With these requirements in mind, I look
Sammanfattning I Europakonventionen artikel 8 skyddas rätten till privatliv. Varje person har rätt till skydd av personuppgifter som tillhör honom eller henne. Globalisering och teknologisk utveckling har anmärkningsvärt förändrat sättet på hur personuppgifter behandlas. En uppdaterad lagstiftning för personuppgiftsskydd behövs och EUs föreslagna förordning reflekterar tydligt utmaningarna för Summary The protection of personal data is a fundamental right in accordance with Article 8 of the European Convention of Human Rights. Every person has the right to the protection of information that concerns him or her. Globalisation and technological advancements have enormously transformed the way our personal data is collected. An updated legislation on data protection is needed and the pr
Det finns ett antal olika konkurrensregler inom den europeiska unionens regelverk. Den här uppsatsen behandlar artikel 102 som reglerar missbruk av en dominerande ställning. Varje konkurrensärende måste påbörjas med att en marknad avgränsas. Just då bedömningen avser artikel 102 förfaranden ter sig marknadsdefinitionen än viktigare. Vid avgränsningen av marknaden använder sig kommissionen av kvantWhen applying competition law within Europe, the first stage of the assessment is to define the relevant market. The relevant market is the field of the review, and is not an end in it self. The relevant market contains the information that the assessment is based on. There is a great importance in the assessment of the market, sometimes it is stated that the one who wins the market, wins the case
Nanotechnology and nanoparticles have applications in biomedicine, data storage, environmental research, materials science and energy storage, to name a few examples. Core-shell nanoparticles consist of a sphere of one material surrounded by a shell of a different material. There is a need for a method that produces core-shell particles of predictable dimensions. We investigate their production vi
One way to probe the structure of atomic nuclei far from stability is via quasi-free scattering (QFS) reactions. We conducted a (p,2p) QFS experiment on H2O, 112Sn, 124Sn and 208Pb targets in order to test the performance of CsI(Tl) detectors that are to be used in the upcoming R3B experiments at FAIR. With the help of particle tracking and reconstructive particle identification (RPID) cuts based
Traditionally, the majority of Swedish public libraries have carried out most of their acquisitions through Bibliotekstjänst's binding booklets. In recent years, however, many libraries have complemented the binding booklets and other services from Bibliotekstjänst by other ways of acquiring books, such as Internet bookshops, while other libraries have stopped using the binding booklets altoge
In 2010 there will be a political resolution to ensure that the Swedish society is accessible to all citizens including people with disabilities. For this purpose a national action plan for disability policy "From patient to citizen" (Govt. Bill 1999/2000:79) has been set out with the aim of ensuring that the disability perspective will permeate every sector of society and that the appro
“1000 Extra” is a project that takes off in the sub optimal conditions that city planning in the 20-th century has left behind for the future. First and foremost looking at the conditions of residential areas planned based on doctrines stemming in modernism, the project proposes desnsifying the not-so-dense areas in Lund, consisting of row houses and other residential buildings in the same categor
As the climate crisis becomes more severe, carbon capture and storage (CCS) is increasingly seen as a viable option to help mitigate climate change. However, one risk with regard to CCS is that it locks us into the use of carbon-based energy sources and industry, creating a carbon lock-in. Looking at the German-Norwegian partnership to store German CO2 in Norway and to provide hydrogen in return,
This paper examines the impact of zombie firms on healthy companies’ growth indicators in the Swedish market. By utilising fixed-effects regression analysis and analysing a comprehensive data set, the paper aims to shed light on the dynamics between zombies’ effects on nonzombies’ development. The findings indicate that zombies have limited effects on healthy companies in Sweden. Contrary to previ
An overview of applied laser-based diagnostics as pursued at the Division of Atomic Physics, Lund University, is given. The fields of application range from environmental monitoring including cultural heritage assessment, to biomedical applications. General aspects of laser-based methods are non-intrusiveness, high spectral- and spatial resolution, and data production in real-time. Different appli
One of the outstanding challenges presented by liquid water is to understand how molecules can move on a picosecond time scale despite being incorporated in a three-dimensional network of relatively strong H-bonds. This challenge is exacerbated in the supercooled state, where the dramatic slowing down of structural dynamics is reminiscent of the, equally poorly understood, generic behavior of liqu
Since the development of real-time PCR, the technology has been widely applied in the field of diagnostics. In comparison with conventional PCR it has opened up the possibility of accurate quantification of microorganisms in clinical, environmental and food samples. When employing real-time PCR and absolute quantification in biological samples, five important requirements should be fulfilled, name
The people bordering the Arabian Gulf, the Mediterranean Sea and the Red Sea rely more and more on seawater desalination for safe water supply. Desalination has advantages and disadvantages which to a large extent depend on the region, location, technology, impact and amount of fresh water production. In this region, some 60% of all desalination capacity is installed. The three regions areas repre
