interactIVe introduces safety systems that autonomously brake and steer. The driver is continuously supported by interactIVe assistance systems. They warn the driver in potentially dangerous situations. The systems do not only react to driving situations, but are also able to actively intervene in order to protect occupants and vulnerable road users. The objective of interactIVe is to develop new
Popular Abstract in Swedish Tuberkulos (Tbc) är en sjukdom som plågat mänskligheten sedan årtusenden före Kristi födelse. Bakterien som orsakar Tbc sprids från person till person företrädesvis via luftvägarna. En tredjedel av världens befolkning tros vara smittad; ca 10% av dessa utvecklar aktiv Tbc någon gång under livet. Totalt insjuknar årligen ca 8 miljoner personer i Tbc; 2 miljoner av dem dö
This work is the first comprehensive description of Makalero, a language spoken by approximately 6,500 speakers in the Iliomar subdistrict, in the south-east of the Republic of East Timor. While previous sources considered it to be a dialect of the larger language Makasae, the present study, which is based on primary data gathered by the author during fieldwork in East Timor, notes sufficient gram
Popular Abstract in Swedish Hantering av avlopp och avfall är en del av alla människors vardag. Vår hälsa och miljö påverkas av metoderna vi tillämpar för att ta hand om rester från hushåll och industrier. Genom teknikens utveckling används idag bakterier i vattenreningsverk där avloppsvatten renas från alla skadliga föremål och föreningar. Med hjälp av matematiska uttryck och analyser, i samspel Biofilms are compact, sessile microbial communities that attach to surfaces in aqueous environments. In wastewater treatment, they are especially important for removal of phosphorus and nitrogen, which, if released into a receiving water body, can cause severe eutrophication. Mathematical models of biofilms in wastewater are used to understand the underlying processes and to describe and analyze b
During the 1990s, Latin America went through important structural transformations. The continent experienced a profound alteration in the relations between the state, society, market and natural environment. Societies have been trying to accommodate, contest and resist this restructuring, particularly once it became evident its negative effects on poverty reduction and the increasingly social and
OBJECTIVE:: The overall aim was to evaluate to what extent the diagnosis of dementia subtypes, obtained by three clinical rating scales, concurred with postmortem neuropathologic (NP) diagnosis of Alzheimer disease (AD), frontotemporal dementia (FTD), vascular dementia (VaD) and mixed AD/VaD. DESIGN:: A prospective longitudinal clinical work-up with postmortem NP examination. PARTICIPANTS:: Two hu
Biogas, a mixture of methane and carbon dioxide, is produced by microorganisms upon degradation of organic matter in an anaerobic environment. It has been realised that by utilising anaerobic processes the organic pollutants in wastewater and organic solid waste from anthropogenic sources can be converted into a renewable source of energy. However, to fulfil the potential of anaerobic digestion in
Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) defects were known to be associated with a large spectrum of human diseases and patients might present wide range of clinical features with various combinations. Mutations in mitochondrial tRNAs, rRNAs and protein-coding genes or large-scale rearrangements have been implicated in several cytopathies. Mitochondrial myopathies, usually maternally inherited group of neuromus
Varje cell har ett membran som skapar en gräns mot omvärlden och skyddarcellen. Men cellen måste alltjämt utbyta viktiga molekyler med omvärlden för attöverleva. Därför finns specialiserade proteiner, som sitter i membranen och utgörportar i denna barriär. Denna avhandling fokuserar på två membranproteiner, enprotonpump och en jonkanal.Varje dag i våra liv använder vi hjärnan, muskler och hjärtat.NADH:quinone oxidoreductase (Complex I) is the first enzyme of the respiratory chain and is involved in energy conservation generating an electro-chemical gradient across a membrane. The enzyme can be divided into a membrane spanning domain and a hydrophilic domain, which protrudes from the membrane. In the hydrophilic domain electrons from NADH oxidation are transported via a wire of iron-sulfur
As a result of the official report on democracy (Demokratiutredningen), the Swedish government decided in 2002 to prescribe by law the right of initiation for common citizens in city councils (medborgerlig förslagsrätt). All citizens are therefore now entitled to submit a proposal which then will be dealt with by the city council as a motion. In this paper the handling of the citizen proposal is s
Authors: Ellen Isakson and Malin Skohg Title: From Odyssey to Hassela’s mentoring program – an empirical study of mentoring in a new institutional perspective [translated title] Supervisor: Torbjörn Hjort The purpose of this paper was to understand how Hassela’s mentoring program could be understood from the new institutional theory of translation. To understand this we have individually intervie
On 9 December 2015, the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) unanimously adopted Resolution 2250 on Youth, Peace and Security (YPS) in a move that gave recognition to the work young people are doing to promote peace. In an investigation to critically examine whether UNSCR 2250 recognizes youth agency for peace or whether it may be used to securitize young people, this thesis analyzes the discurs
Det är ofta arkitekter får frågan “Varför ritar ni så fula hus nuförtiden?”. Majoriteten lekmän tycks föredra estetiken hos äldre hus framför det som byggs idag. Ämnet är aktuellt i olika medier, men problemet är att det sällan bedrivs en konstruktiv diskussion mellan de två sidorna. Förespråkarna för en mer traditionell arkitektur smutskastar arkitekterna och arkitekterna hånar kritikerna. I mittArchitects are often asked the question ”Why do you design such ugly buildings nowadays?”. The majority of laymen seem to prefer the aesthetics of, what might be referred to as period or traditional houses, to what we build today. The issue is being much discussed in the media, but in general, the discussions are not constructive. People that advocate a traditional architecture excoriate architect
Denna uppsats undersöker budplikten på den svenska aktiemarknaden ur ett rättsekonomiskt perspektiv. Syftet är dels att undersöka om de svenska budpliktsreglerna tillämpas syftesenligt, dels om budplikten är lämplig på den svenska aktiemarknaden ur ett ekonomiskt perspektiv, vilket kompletteras med en argumentation de lege ferenda. Rättsekonomisk litteratur om offentliga uppköpserbjudanden presenThis thesis examines the Swedish mandatory bid rule from a law and economics perspective. The purpose is to study whether or not the rule is applied in a way that satisfies its purposes, and if it is suitable for the Swedish market, which is complemented by an argumentation de lege ferenda. Law and economics literature on takeovers is reviewed to serve as perspective for the thesis. The question
Hållbart resande i socialt utsatta områden En studie som genomförts vid Centrum för miljö- och klimatforskning (CEC) visar på att det finns vissa skillnader vad gäller resvanor i socialt utsatta områden jämfört med andra områden. På Rosengård i Malmö upplevs exempelvis behovet av att använda bilen som större jämfört med genomsnittet för Malmö kommun. Dessutom är cykeltillgången för området väldigRoad transportation is a large source of greenhouse gas emissions and contributor to climate change. To reduce the negative environmental impact from road transportation, the use of cars as a mode of transport should be reduced. This can be done by changed travel habits and sustainable transport planning. Previously, transportation planning and new investments have often been limited to higher soc
