This thesis will explore Roman religion of the imperial time from 29 BCE until the 370’s CE as an alternative lens to enhance the academic discourse on political religion. As a case study, Marxism-Leninism which was the guiding ideology of the former German Democratic Republic (GDR) will be analysed. According to Emilio Gentile, a political religion is characterised by six criteria. It shall be (1

The use of industrial robots in manufacturing often requires good calibration approaches and tools to obtain and maintain the desirable accuracy of the robot, for the robot to be able to execute a task in a satisfactory manner. For high-accuracy methods of calibration, it is necessary to first identify the robot’s stiffness parameters. This thesis will focus on a method that is based on a clamping

Med SOU 2017:98 Tidiga förhör – nya bevisregler i brottmål föreslås en utökad möjlighet att använda dokumenterade förhör från förundersökningen som bevis i domstol. I uppsatsen berör jag den del av förslaget som innebär att utsagor som parter och vittnen lämnar i bevissyfte i större utsträckning ska dokumenteras med ljud och bild under förundersökningen och sedan presenteras i domstol. Detta innebWith SOU 2017:98 Early interrogations - new evidence rules in criminal cases an extended opportunity is given, to use documented interrogations from the preliminary investigation as evidence in court. In this essay I investigate the part of the bill concerning that statements left by parties, and witnesses for evidence purposes, should be documented using audio and video during preliminary investi

Negative environmental impacts generated by new buildings and the built environment needs to be reduced in order to contribute to mitigation of anthropogenic global warming. Sustainable building certifications such as Miljöbyggnad and DGNB was introduced as a measure to transition into more sustainable buildings. The research study explores the environmental impacts of cross-laminated timber and t

Predicting the development of distant metastasis for breast cancer patients is of high importance for both the patient and the medical staff. The current best method for prediction is the use of handcrafted histopatological features. The aim with this study is to explore how well Additive Multiple Labelling Cytochemistry (AMLC) stained core biopsy images can predict the development of distant meta

Belgien är en av de mest trafikerade länderna i Europa. Det här leder till dålig luftkvalité som är direkt skadligt för befolkningen, vilket är något som har uppmärksammats på de senare åren. Ett alternativ till diesel för tung lastbilstrafik är flytande naturgas (LNG), vilket har flera fördelar med mindre utsläpp av NOx, SOx, partiklar och växthusgaser. LNG är ett alternativt bränsle som är kommeLiquefied Natural Gas is a clean and lower carbon alternative to diesel in the heavy road transport sector. It is established as a system in Netherlands and is in the preliminary phase in Belgium with three existing LNG filling stations. Belgium is one of the most heavily trafficked countries in Europe with poor air quality, making it an interesting market for establishing a LNG system. Truck manu

Med förklaringsbörda avses det förhållandet att den tilltalade underlåter att lämna en förklaring till en viss omständighet och att detta får en för denne oförmånlig bevisverkan. Den laga grunden för att ålägga den tilltalade en förklaringsbörda återfinns dels i RB 35 kap. 1 §, enligt vilken domstolen har att fritt bevisvärdera allt som förekommit i målet, dels i 35 kap. 4 §, enligt vilken domstolThe burden of explanation refers to the situation where the accused omits to explain a given circumstance, which as a result affects the evidentiary effect unfavorably. The legal basis for imposing a burden of explanation on the accused is found in Chapter 35, Section 1 and 4 of the Swedish Code for Judicial Procedure. Section 1 states that the court is free to evaluate everything that has occurre

Ett patent är en immateriell rättighet som medför en ensamrätt för patenthavaren att dra affärsmässig nytta av en viss uppfinning under en begränsad tidsperiod. Den som kränker patenthavarens ensamrätt gör sig skyldig till patentintrång. Vid patentintrång tillhandahåller den svenska patentlagen (1967:837) ett antal olika sanktionsmöjligheter. De primära civilrättsliga sanktionsformerna utgörs av pA patent is a kind of intellectual property right that grants the patent holder an exclusive right to profit from a certain invention for a limited time period. Anyone who violates the patent holder's exclusive right is guilty of patent infringement. In cases of patent infringement the Swedish Patent Act (patentlag 1967: 837) provides a number of different sanction options. The primary civil s

Framtiden för verktyg på bibliotek Ett sätt att minska vår belastning på miljön är att dela saker med varandra. Att kunna låna verktyg och andra prylar på biblioteken - är det ett bra sätt att få fler att dela? Många säger sig vilja dela saker med andra men det är inte lika många som faktiskt gör det. Många av de initiativ för delande som finns idag bygger på delande mellan främlingar, men de flThe sharing of goods and services has a lot of potential in tackling the environmental consequences of consumption. Studies indicate that public lending has advantages over private individuals lending each other necessities. It is therefore important to investigate how public lending can be organised most efficiently. Some Swedish libraries provide tools and other things that are not typically ass

Violence and harassment in the world of work is a complex issue that has numerous manifestations. This thesis provides an overview of the international law around violence and harassment at the workplace, both taking into the account the new ILO Convention on the Violence and Harassment, C 190 and the previous legal instruments that had touched on this issue. In so doing, it assesses the potential

Recent research has noticed that the picture of the second-generation immigrants negotiating their identity in media space is different and far more complex than the first generation. With their emergence in the new age of digitalisation, the second-generation immigrant is offered more media choices and freedom of access to the two most important cultural sets of host and homeland country to make

A Tale of Two Proteins: SepF2 and SepF3 You might have heard of antibiotic resistance, which is one of the biggest public health issues of our time. In addition to the measures that should be taken at all levels of society to combat this issue, research to identify new antimicrobial targets to alleviate the rapid emergence of antibiotic resistance has become crucial. Cell division proteins in bac

Den teknologiska kombinationen mellan den verkliga världen och virtuella element kallas för Augmented Reality (AR). AR-tekniken har funnits i decennier men med de senaste årens framgång inom området, ser framtiden lovande ut. Det finns fortfarande en hel del att undersöka när det kommer till hur man interagerar med AR-miljöer ur ett användarcentrerat perspektiv. Målet med detta projekt var att utfThe technological combination between the real world and virtual elements is called Augmented Reality (AR). The AR technology has been existing for decades, but the advancements the past years have been even more promising. There is still a lot to investigate when it comes to how to interact with AR environments through a user-centered perspective. The goal of this project has been to explore how

Gravitational encounters between a single star and a binary system can frequently occur in the cores of dense stellar systems like globular clusters. These three-body scattering encounters can lead to a variety of outcomes since the energy of the binary components can be exchanged with the interacting single star. The outcome of these interactions strongly depend on the initial conditions of the i

Vattenmolekylers rörelse: ett mått på små förändringar i hjärnan Visste du att bättre förståelse för nätverket av nervtrådar i hjärnan kan uppnås genom att mäta vattenmolekylernas rörelse? I denna studie användes detta för att undersöka om det finns förändringar i hjärnan hos personer med den autoimmuna sjukdomen SLE. Hur kan vattenmolekylers rörelse användas för att förstå hjärnans uppbyggnad? Systemic Lupus Erythematosus, SLE, is a disease with a large variation of symptoms. Some patients have neuropsychiatric symptoms, such as cognitive dysfunction and epilepsy. The classification of patients into NPSLE, with neuropsychiatric symptoms, and non-NPSLE, without these symptoms, is uncertain. Studying the white matter microstructure of SLE patients and comparing this with healthy controls

Kapaciteten är ett ständigt återkommande problem på den svenska järnvägen och allt fler resenärer har börjat välja tåg som färdmedel, detta medför att kapacitetsproblemet bara kommer öka. Kollektivresandet i Sverige har under det senaste decenniet ökat markant och det är främst resandet på järnväg som ökat. Denna ökning har även påverkat Skåne där pendling till arbete och utbildning idag har bliviCapacity is a constant problem on the Swedish railway. More and more travellers have begun to choose trains as a mean of transport due to the low environmental impact and its convenient way of transport. Public transport in Sweden has increased significantly in the last decade, and it is mainly rail travel that has increased. This increase has also affected Skåne, where commuting to work and educa
