With the ever increasing demand for higher data rates and reliability, efficient management of cellular networks remains a challenge. Among other technologies, fifth generation systems are expected to tackle this challenge using large electronically controllable antenna arrays operating in the time division duplex mode. In such systems, spatial beamforming is implemented with accurate channel esti
Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning av examensarbetet Utveckling av karaktäriserings-metoder för lignocellulosarika biogassubstrat. Smältande isar, extrema naturkatastrofer och rekordhöga temperaturer; det rapporteras daglig-en om nya händelser som påstås ha orsakats av den globala uppvärmningen. De flesta svenskar är numer familjära med uttrycket och miljömedvetenhet är något som blir mer och mer As the need of environmentally friendly alternatives to fossil fuels is growing bigger, so is the need for knowledge and research around possible new raw materials that could serve that pur-pose. One discussed product is biogas. Since biogas can be produced from not only food waste and wastewater residue, but from any substrate that contains fats, proteins and/or car-bohydrates, with the help of d
This thesis highlights the social mission of the public library by studying the relationship between public libraries and social work. The aim is to increase knowledge about how the presence of library social workers (LSWs) in public libraries can be understood in the light of societal changes, perceptions on the public library’s social responsibility, and how this presence can affect the treatmen
Surrogatmoderskap är inte tillåtet inom svensk hälso- och sjukvård. Samtidigt finns det inget direkt förbud mot surrogatarrangemang i svensk rätt. Uppsatsen belyser det rättsliga vakuum som uppstår när svenskar ingår surrogatarrangemang utomlands och därefter återvänder till Sverige med barn som saknar klart fastställda föräldrar enligt svensk rätt. I centrum för framställningen står principen om Surrogacy is not permitted within Swedish healthcare services. However, there is no explicit prohibition against surrogacy arrangements under Swedish law. This thesis highlights the legal vacuum that arises when Swedish citizens engage in surrogacy arrangements abroad and subsequently return to Sweden with children whose legal parentage is not clearly established under Swedish law. The core of the
This degree project aimed to produce a standardized food product enriched with 14g polar lipids (PL) and compare its effects on glycemic response and appetite sensations both acutely and following a second meal in healthy individuals. In order to elucidate the viability of enriching a prebaked product with polar lipids researchers spent multiple weeks assessing variations in recipe, cook time, coo

Uppsatsen innebär ett försök att utreda MER och AMA:s förhållande till AB 04 och hur de spelar in vid fastställande av entreprenadens omfattning. För att utreda frågeställningarna har en rättsdogmatisk metod använts. Den svenska entreprenadrätten har sedan lång tid setts som definierad av standardavtalen Allmänna bestämmelser. I Allmänna bestämmelser anges att entreprenadrättsligatvister ska lösaThe thesis involves an attempt to investigate MER and AMAS’s relationship with AB 04 and which role they play in determining the scope of the contract. The thesis determines the applicable law by using the legal dogmatic method. Swedish construction contract law has for a long period of time been defined by the use of a standard form contract called AB 04. Swedish construction contract law is a d
Bemanningsbranschen har under de senaste årtiondena vuxit kraftigt i Sverige och är idag en etablerad del av arbetsmarknaden. Behovet av att reglera bemanningsbranschen rättsligt insåg EU redan tidigt och efter många turer och skilda åsikter i frågan så kunde EU 2008 beslutaom bemanningsdirektivet. Direktivet skulle vara genomfört i Sverige senast 2011 men blev klart först i januari 2013 då uthyrnThe temporary agency work business has grown considerably over the last decades in Sweden. The need to regulate the business by law was recognized early on by the EU. After a long process and many divergent opinions, the Temporary Agency Work directive was finally agreed upon in 2008. The directive should have been implemented in Sweden in 2011 but the law enforcing it, uthyrningslagen, was not fi
Brief Admission by self-referral (BA) is a crisis intervention for individuals with recurrent self-harm and suicidal ideation. While short-term effects are documented, long-term utilisation patterns remain unclear. This study examines BA usage over 4 years, identifies distinct utilisation profiles, and qualitatively explores participants' experiences with BA over time. Participants were 62 individ
OBJECTIVES: Pulmonary valve implantation (PVI) is common in children with congenital heart disease particularly as they get older. While surgical PVI (SPVI) was the mainstay of treatment for years, percutaneous PVI (PPVI) has evolved into a popular treatment option. The aim of our study was to evaluate the rate of prosthetic pulmonary valve infectious endocarditis (PPVIE) between these two modes o

Ever since the phenomenon of predatory pricing came under the antitrust radar in the Standard Oil case it has spurred debate, which was accentuated after McGee’s seminal article in 1958 where he reexamined the Standard Oil case and claimed that no predatory pricing had taken place. He was supported by a number of scholars (the Chicago school) and legal commentators who stated that predatory pricin
When installing new research equipment at the synchrotron research laboratory MAX IV, a final positional accuracy of tens of microns is usually needed. To obtain that accuracy, initial reference points must be placed within 2 mm from the nominal target points in CAD, in a process referred to as bluelining. It is currently a manual process where points from a virtual environment are transferred to
Molecular cluster is a nanoparticle that is defined as an agglomerate of few up to 106-7 of molecules (corresponding to 1- 100 nm in size) that can be manipulated by the cluster beams. Molecular cluster properties typically lie between the individual molecule and bulk matter properties. This work describes the employment of the Cold Aerodynamic Source (CAS) to produce a narrow, collimated and iso
Konkurrensrätt och immaterialrätt har länge betraktats vara rättsområden som skyddar motstående intressen. En av de regleringar som finns för att underlätta förhållandet mellan de två rättsområdena är kommissionens förordning nr 772/2004 för grupper av avtal om tekniköverföring. Genom denna förordning önskar kommissionen garantera en effektiv konkurrens på marknaden samt erbjuda företag som ingår Competition Law and Intellectual Property Law are sometimes considered as areas of law which protect conflicting interests. One of the regulations striving to facilitate the relationship between these two areas is Regulation 772/2004, on the application of article 101.1 TFEU to categories of technology transfer agreements. The objectives of this Regulation are to ensure effective competition and t
Vilka mangroverötter vill marina djur helst bo på? Stora delar av världens tropiska kuster är bevuxna av mangrove. Här vadar träden i vattnet och skjuter hela tiden ut nya luftrötter för att ta över ytterligare en bit hav. Inte så många skulle få för sig att snorkla på en sådan här plats. Gör man ändå det möts man, åtminstone i Karibien, av en explosion av färger och liv. Alger och mängder av fasEffect of habitat heterogeneity on marine epibiont assemblages associated with mangrove roots In coastal forests of red mangrove, prop roots extend into the seawater and serve as substrate for assemblages of algae and sessile marine organisms. These assemblages exhibit extreme variability on very small special scales – two neighbouring prop roots might be colonized by completely distinct assembla
This thesis explores how the handling, analysis and transformations of material and data affect the production of knowledge in an applied project of cultural analysis. It concerns itself mainly with the process of dislocation, transformation and transportation of meaning, by putting to work the actor-network theories of Bruno Latour. An attempt will be made to retrace the steps of creating materia
In this thesis I have attempted to explore flexibility of work outside the sectors which are most often associated with the concept of flexibility in ‘the new economy’, e.g. work in ICT-sectors. Through a case study of cleaners and cleaning work in Sweden I have attempted to discuss both how flexibility is represented and how consequences of flexibility can be understood in relation to experiences
