The world is slowly moving towards a more environmentally friendly mindset and many companies, such as Tetra Pak® have followed this lead by producing more environmentally friendly products and developing better materials with less environmental impact. To accommodate these requirements, it is important that the package is recyclable. For a carton this is defined by the repulpability, i.e., the ab
Denna uppsats handlar om begreppet tillräknelighet och hur detta ser ut i svensk och norsk rätt. Den komparativa metoden har använts för att kunna presentera likheter och skillnader gällande kravet på tillräknelighet i svensk och norsk rätt. Den komparativa metoden ska även syfta till ökaförståelsen för varför Sverige inte längre uppställer krav på tillräknelighet för straffansvar. TillräkneligheThis paper inquiries through a comparative study, the concept of sanity and insanity in criminal law in Sweden and Norway. It has proven difficult to reach an inclusive and satisfactory definition of what ‘insanity’ implies. Instead, the law has attempted to identify situations that can account for ‘insanity’: such as when the perpetrator is unable to perceive reality in a ‘sane’ way or to underst
This document describes the methods and results of our Master’s Thesis, car- ried out at Axis Communications AB. A central problem with deep neural networks is that they contain a large num- ber of parameters and heavy computations. To cope with this, our idea was to split the network into chunks large enough that they require their own core, yet small enough to not violate our memory constraints.
Denna uppsats undersöker gränserna för ansvarsfriheten vid våld utövat i nödvärn enligt svensk rätt och granskar de rättspolitiska överväganden som ligger till grund för gränsdragningarna i lag och praxis. Framställningen är avgränsad till angrepp mot person och behandlar inte straffmätningen vid överskriden nödvärnsrätt. En grundläggande förutsättning för ansvarsfrihet är att rätt till nödvärn fThis paper examines the Swedish law relating to the limits of violence applied when exercising self-defence and explores the prescriptive considerations underlying law and practice. The exposition is delimited to assaults against individuals and does not cover questions regarding leniency of punishment. A basic condition for freedom of responsibility is the existence of a right of self-defence. S
This thesis examines and discusses the relationship between social capital and bullying in Swedish schools. The study is based on two hypotheses built on inspiration from the social capital scientists Robert D. Putnam and Bo Rothstein. Both hypotheses aim to explain how social capital is created, and may affect the level of bullying in school. The study is conducted through two separate comparativ
Arbetet syftar till att undersöka hur en domstol kan gå tillväga i bevisvärderingen av sakkunnigbevisning när det finns motstridig sådan och hur en sådan bevisvärdering förhåller sig till robusthetskravet. Robusthet är ett mått på sannolikheten att ett bevisfaktums stöd för ett tema förändras vid ytterligare utredning. Med utgångspunkt i en deskriptiv del av arbetet, där bevisrättsliga principer The thesis’ purpose is to examine how a court of law can evaluate expert testimony when both the prosecutor and the defense have called experts who give contrary statements. The examined evidence evaluation is thereafter analyzed with regards to the notion of robustness in evidence. Robustness is a way of measuring the probability that additional evidence will alter the probability based on the ex
Behavior and social interactions are key features to determine the phenotype of an organism. Observing behavioral manifestations give insides on a fundamental level of how inner mechanisms work. But how is it possible to predict behavior in a way, such that it can be quantify and analyzed? One traditional strategy is to annotate the behavior by hand. Observing the animals and making notes about th
The Anti-Tax Avoidance Directive calls for a new chapter in the fight against tax avoidance and abuse in the European Union - as a minimum level of protection against tax avoidance practises is established. Member States have a certain degree of discretion when implementing the directive. They must however make sure that measures transposed are in line with primary EU law. This essay investigates
Over the past few decades, Japan and South Korea have experienced unprecedented levels of population ageing brought about by the countries’ persistent sub-replacement fertility rates. This fertility decline has to be addressed in order to ensure future social stability and economic growth. The primary purpose of this thesis is to determine the primary drivers behind these low fertility rates. The
Title: Biomimetic ventilation Authors: Bamdad Mashreghi & Hugo Landin Supervisor: Urban Persson, Lunds Tekniska Högskola Examiner: Anne Landin, Lunds Tekniska Högskola Problem definition: How does the performance of a biomimetic ventilation system based upon termite-ventilation vary depending on the local climate? What are the differences between a biomimetic ventilation system inspired
The aim of this study is to investigate whether crops are a mechanism through which drought affects terrorist activity. The theory suggests that drought can affect conflict if the group or country affected also is dependent on agriculture, experiences low economic development and is politically excluded. This study adds the perspective that decreased crop harvests, due to drought, can be understoo
Transnationella företag anses idag generellt sett inte vara folkrättsligt skyldiga att respektera mänskliga rättigheter. I stater där det nationella skyddet av mänskliga rättigheter brister tillåts således företag begå kränkningar av mänskliga rättigheter utan att träffas av juridiska sanktioner. Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka om en traktat som direkt gör transnationella företag folkrätTransnational corporations are today in general not considered to be obligated under international law to respect human rights. In states where the protection of human rights through national law is weak corporations thus may violate human rights without risking becoming subjects to legal santioncs. The purpose of this study is to investigate whether or not the conclusion of a treaty that obligate
Cooling systems based on magnetic refrigeration are a promising and environmentally friendly alternative to commonly used gas-compression refrigeration. Magnetic refrigeration is based on the magnetocaloric effect. This effect denotes a temperature change of a magnetic material due to a change in its intrinsic magnetic properties, induced by a change in an external applied magnetic field. MnCoSi i

Firstly, interviewing researchers and political parties regarding their perception of microtargeting to generate a holistic view around the technology and its utilization. Secondly, implementing a survey wit
