Gas cooling is a technique used by firefighters to create a safer work environment inside a compartment fire. By spraying water into the smoke layer, the smoke layer temperature will decrease significantly. Next to the lower temperature, the flammability of the smoke layer will also decrease. Due to the cooling of the fire gases, the smoke layer may contract. This work focused on different parame
För närmare åtta år sedan, 2011, ändrade Högsta domstolen (HD) sin tidigare praxis avseende tolkningen av 1 kap. 2 § andra stycket brottsbalken (BrB) – alltså det lagrum som reglerar uppsåt vid självförvållat rus. Den nya tolkningen innebar att uppsåt i dessa fall skulle behandlas enligt vanliga regler om uppsåt. Det är således inte längre fråga om att fingera uppsåt, inte ens i någon mån. SuzanneNearly eight years ago, in 2011, the supreme court of Sweden changed its previously established practice regarding the interpretation of Chapter 1, art. 2, 2nd paragraph of the Penal Code1 where intent and self-induced intoxication are addressed. A consequence of the new interpretation was that criminal intent in such cases of intoxication should instead be tried as intent in general and thus ther
The primary aim of this study was to examine how employees at HVB-homes define and use relationship-based praxis in their daily work with youths, and how organizational context and individual ability enable or impede such work. Applying a qualitative method, where individual and nuanced experiences of the topic is a primary focus, a goal oriented snowball sampling was made in order to get in conta
Syftet med denna studie är att jämföra kommunikationsstrategier i tre olika församlingar, som verkar i olika kontexter, för att få en startpunkt för att svara på frågan varför medlemmar lämnar Svenska kyrkan i en takt av 1,6% per år. Det är viktigt för församlingarna att bli sedda som en positiv och ansvarstagande organisation som bidrar till det lokala samhället och dess innevånare. Klarar inte fThe purpose of this thesis is to study and compare communication strategies in three different parishes located in three quite different contexts to get a starting point to answering questions concerning the rate of members leaving the Swedish church, 1.6% per year. It is of outmost importance for a parish to be regarded as a positive and responsible organisation contributing to the local communit
Barnfridsbrottet i 4 § 3 kap. BrB är ett relativt nytt brott i svensk lagstiftning då det trädde i kraft 1 juli 2021. Lagstiftarens avsikt med bestämmelsen var att uppmärksamma barn som lever i miljöer där våld och andra brottsliga gärningar förekommer och låta deras röster höras genom hela den rättsliga processen. Forskning visar att barn som upplever våld mellan närstående är särskilt skadligt fThe criminalization of letting children witness violence or other crimes in Section 4, Chapter 3 in the Swedish Criminal Code is a relatively new offence as it came into force on 1 July 2021. The legislator's intention with this provision was to draw attention to children living in environments where violence and other criminal acts occur. Research shows that children who experience domestic v
Denna rapport undersöker möjligheten till implementering av en storskalig energilagringslösning i Malmö och dess effekt på elbalansen. Arbetet utgår från Texel Energy Storage AB:s termokemiska batterilösning som lagrar energi i form av värme, vilken sedan utvinns som elektrisk energi genom en Stirlingmotor. Texel planerar att implementera en 400 MW-lösning i Malmö år 2027 - introducerad i tre faseThis report investigates the possibility for an implementation of a large-scale grid storage solution in Malmö and its effect on the electricity balance. The work is centred around Texel Energy Storage AB’s thermochemical battery solution that stores energy as heat, which is converted to electricity through a Stirling engine. Texel plans to introduce a 400 MW storage solution in Malmö in 2027 – in
Den 1 juli 2018 ändrades svensk sexualbrottslagstiftning i grunden då bedömningen för vad som utgör ett sexuellt övergrepp förändrades till att definieras utifrån huruvida deltagandet i sexuell kontakt sker frivilligt. Ändringarna som infördes i brottsbalken brukar gemensamt kallas samtyckeslagen. Förändringen innebar även att ett nytt brott, oaktsam våldtäkt som regleras i 6 kap. 1 a § brottIn July 2018, the Swedish legislation regarding sexual assault fundamentally changed in terms of which criminal acts are considered to be a violation of the law. Among these changes was the implementation of the new criminal offence of negligent rape, found in the sixth chapter of the Swedish penal code, which opposedly to the previous ruling that only included intentional acts, now criminali
The study examines how gender equality is represented and problematized in the ASEAN Committee on Women Work Plan 2021-2025. The study seeks to explore discourse of gender equality present in the work plan, by employing Carol Bacchi’s “What is the problem represented to be” method. The findings are analyzed through a postcolonial feminist approach to underpin some silences and subject positions, c
The evidence-based practice in the field of social work is leaning on science, professional expertise, and the client's wishes and experiences, with the latter two tending to be of less value. With the implementation of peer support in psychiatric care and social support, there is room for this tendency to be challenged. This study aimed to explore how the peer supporters experience and view t
Vid användning av text- och datautvinning (TDU) sker en exemplarfram-ställning som normalt, enligt unionsrätten, faller inom upphovsmäns en-samrätt till sina verk. I vissa fall kunde detta undantas genom de undantag som redan finns enligt den befintliga unionsrättsliga upphovsrätten, men rättsläget föreföll oklart. Därav kom det så kallade DSM-direktivet med två undantag för TDU. Ett undantag för When using text and data mining (TDM) there is a reproduction of the works that are subject to the analysis. This reproduction would normally be prohibited by the copyright that EU law gives the authors of their work. In some cases, this could fall under the pre-existing exceptions provided for by EU law but the legal situation regarding TDM was rather unclear. This led to the DSM Directive which
Sea ice is strongly impacted by global warming, and its decline further alters the global climate. Climate models are important tools for examining those future sea ice changes and the interaction of sea ice with other Earth system components such as the atmosphere and the ocean. Typically, these components are simulated with separate codes. The interaction between these components is typically mo
The background for this thesis is that access to sustainable electricity is part of the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals for 2030. In Sub- Saharan Africa, approximately 570 million people lacked access to electricity in 2022. To expand access in rural areas, solar home systems and other off-grid solar products offer affordable and accessible solutions. However, as these systems reach
Strandskyddet i Sverige har en lång historia och har länge varit viktigt för att skydda allemansrätten och på senare tid även djur- och naturvärden, trots detta är lagstiftningen polariserande och ofta debatterad. Skyddet gäller vid landets alla vatten och innebär att byggnads- eller anläggningsåtgärder inte får utföras inom 100 meter från strandlinjen. Regleringen hittar vi främst i miljöbalken oThis thesis strives to investigate and make sense of the complex regulations surrounding the availability of exploitable land along bodies of water in Sweden. With the Shore Protection regulations found in the Swedish Environmental Code it becomes apparent that most sought after land along the sea, lakes and running water for planning and construction in accordance to the Planning and Building Act
Då en make ärver en make med släktingar i första eller andra parantelen uppstår arvsrättsligt en efterarvsrätt. Denna efterarvsrätt har tidigare inte förtydligat huruvida en försäkringsersättning som utfaller genom förmånstagarförordnande till efterlevande make ska inräknas i efterarvet. 1975 kom ett rättsfall från högsta domstolen som fastställde just detta, att det faktiskt föreligger rätt till When a spouse inherits another spouse, who has children from a previous marriage, parents, siblings or nephews alive, a right to secondary inheritance occurs according to Swedish law. Before 1975, it was not clarified whether this right to secondary inheritance should include an insurance reimburse-ment due to an insurance with a spouse as beneficiary. In 1975 the Swedish Supreme Court ruled that
Distance-based accessibility measures are often built using vector representations of origin and destination features, and Euclidean or network-based distances. There are few comparisons of how the choice of feature representations and distance types affects results. Existing comparisons often use Spearman’s rank correlation coefficients. This study seeks to understand the effect of using differen
This Thesis seeks to give its reader the tools to understand the data privacy divide between the EU and the US. It explains the crucial notions, historical and jurisprudential factors and regulatory frameworks underlying and constituting it. First, it answers why regulating data privacy is paramount to our democratic societies on both sides of the Atlantic. The growing importance of the data dri
At the core of this thesis lies the conception that branding theories might bear insights for individuals who aim to establish their professional existence outside of the area for which their profession grants them credibility. One group of such professionals was found in self-employed social workers who offer employee assistance to private corporations. They operate outside of what is widely ackn
In many countries, GMO policy-making has been characterised with a lot of controversy, participation and trust being the most pressing issues. The ongoing Ghanaian GMO policy-making is not spared of the controversy. The GMO Bill which was introduced in the Ghanaian Parliament in 2013 remained unpassed amid accusations and counter-accusations between government-led groups and civil society-led anti
Det finns olika möjligheter för barn att få komma till tals och det är domstolens skyldighet att se till att barnets åsikter kommer fram i målet. Barn kan för det första få komma till tals i en vårdnadsutredning eller innan snabbupplysningar sker av socialnämnden. För det andra kan barnet också komma till tals inför rätten. I praktiken har det funnits brister i hur tillämpningen av rätten att koFamily law disputes concerning the custody, residence and contact of children have increased in recent years. Judgments made by the court in the resolution of disputes have significant short and long term consequences for the children involved. The child is not a party to the proceedings. Instead the child has a right to be heard and a right to have his or her best interests taken as a primary con
Att polisen använder sig av provokativa åtgärder i brottsbekämpningen är i viss mån accepterat i Sverige. Brottsprovokation och bevisprovokation anses vara nödvändiga metoder för att bekämpa allvarlig och organiserad brottslighet och har blivit ett allt vanligare inslag i polisens arbete sedan början av 1980-talet. Sedan dess har även en förändring skett vad gäller inställningen till den provoceraThe use of provocative investigative measures is in Sweden an accepted method in the control of crime. These measures are considered to be essential parts in the fight against serious and organized criminality and have become a more commonly used instrument for the police since the early 1980’s. Since then, there has been a change concerning how a criminal is treated legally after being subject to
