New models of combustion engines have gained a great interest within research in the last decade. This interest has arisen due to the possibility to achieve a higher degree of efficiency and lower emissions, which will impact the environment positively. A higher degree of efficiency implicates an economical benefit in terms of fuel. The HCCI engine has been thoroughly researched due to its combine
There are today about 200 000 children living in families where either one or both parents are addicted to alcohol. These children often become young carers, as they are prematurely being placed in adult caring roles. The aim of this thesis has been to illustrate the situation for children of alcoholics and to examine how these children are coping when parents do not fulfil their parenting respons
My thesis is a case study on the intervention in Iraq 2003, which was intensely debated prior the intervention and the debate is not yet concluded. My purpose is to analyse whether the intervention may be seen as a humanitarian intervention according to the criterions stipulated by the ICISS's report on the ''Responsibility to Protect'' and other authors' views about what j
Det svenska straffrättsliga systematiken är uppbyggt så att den som uppfyller rekvisiten i en brottsbestämmelse är ansvarig i strikt gärningsmannaskap. Men för ett tillfredsställande system krävs det att även andra involverade personer kan tillskrivas straffansvar vilket löses genom medverkansansvaret. Uppsatsen syftar till att utreda hur långt gärningsmannaskapet och medverkansansvaret sträcker sThe Swedish criminal law system is structured so that those who meet the necessary conditions in a criminal provision are liable as perpetrators. But for a satisfactory system, it is required that other people involved also can be attributed criminal liability, which is solved through the responsibility for complicity. This thesis aims to investigate the range of the perpetration and responsibilit
Kan abborren stoppa den invasiva smörbultens framfart i Östersjön? Ett av de största hoten mot ett ekosystem är en invasion av nya arter, då de påverkar biodiversiteten, den redan etablerade dynamiken mellan arter och skapar högre konkurrens om föda och habitat. Östersjön är en unik miljö med hög variation av både temperatur och salthalt, vilket kan göra det svårt för arter att etablera sig vilkDuring the last decades the spread of the invasive species round goby, Neogobius melanostomus, has largely increased in the Baltic Sea affecting the ecosystem, biodiversity and species interactions. Round goby originates from the Caspian Sea and has most likely been introduced multiplied times via ships ballast water to different areas of the Baltic Sea. The establishment has had both negative and
This master thesis invites the reader to acquire and examine new evidence about an emerging and growing sub-genre type of documentary film called Ayahuasca documentary. This study bases its definition of the Ayahuasca documentary sub-genre on a current work in the progress catalogue of over 50 documentary films, two of which were selected as case studies. These films suggest a growing cultural int
När Högsta domstolen i USA förra året avskaffade det konstitutionella skyddet för abort genom att undanröja domen Roe v. Wade från 1973, så reagerade flera svenska politiker genom att snabbt ta ställning för att grundlagsskydda aborträtten i Sverige. Grundlagsdebatten hade tills dess aldrig handlat om aborträtten och abortdebatten hade likaledes inte handlat om grundlagsfrågor. Den här uppsatsen When the Supreme Court of the United States abolished the constitutional protection for abortion last year by overturning the Roe v. Wade decision from 1973, several Swedish politicians reacted by quickly taking a stand to constitutionally protect the right to abortion in Sweden. Until then, the constitutional debate had never been about abortion rights, and the abortion debate had likewise not b

The purpose of this thesis was to examine how fasteners for mobile phone housing in metal sheet could be designed. The assignment was defined by Sony Ericsson Mobile Communication and the work was done in close cooperation with them. Sony Ericsson has had metal in their covers before but only as a cosmetic layer, the bearing parts have been made in moulded plastic. The reason to make a cover where
The UN-affiliated World Health Organization (WHO) estimated that in 2019, more than 90 % of people living on Earth were constantly exposed to concentrations of ambient outdoor pollutants higher than the air quality guideline limits. One of the most notorious air pollutants is particulate matter, consisting of fine natural or anthropogenic particles suspended in the air. Recent studies have shown t
Uppsatsen handlar om huruvida det alltid borde vara kriminaliserat för en lärare att ha samlag med sina elever som är mellan 15-17 år. För att besvara syftet ämnar uppsatsen att besvara två frågeställningar. Dels om det skydd som lagstiftningen ger kring den aktuella situationen idag är tillräckligt för att skydda barnet, dels hur skyddet skulle kunna stärkas om den första frågan besvaras nekande.The main purpose of this essay is to answer the question whether it should always be criminalized for a teacher to have intercourse with their students who are between the ages of 15-17. To answer the purpose, the essay intends to answer two questions. Firstly whether the protection that the legislation provides regarding the current situation today is sufficient enough to protect the child, and s

De utmaningar som dagens och kommande generationer står inför, till följd av klimatförändringarnas konsekvenser, har inga motsvarigheter i historien. Därför utmanas vårt tänkande och agerande från grunden. Som en följd av detta finns en rörelse som försöker påverka politiken och samhället i en mer hållbar riktning: klimataktivisterna. I oktober 2024 friades en klimataktivist av Stockholms tingsrätThe challenges faced by current and future generations as a result of the impacts of climate change are unprecedented. Therefore, our modes of thinking and acting are being fundamentally challenged. As a result, a new climate movement has emerged, calling on politicians to ensure sustainable policies and societies. In October 2024, a climate activist was acquitted by the Stockholm District Court o
Hur påverkar en stad vattenkemi och alger i en å? Rönne å slingrar sig igenom det skånska landskapet från Ringsjön och mynnar till slut ut i havet vid Ängelholm. Jag paddlade kanot i Rönne å för att undersöka dagvattnet som rinner ner i ån. Jag ville också undersöka den ekologisk betydelsen dagvattnet har på ån genom att studera alger. Slutligen ville jag se om det finns skillnader mellan landsbyStormwater is runoff water from snow or rain events that enters a recipient shortly after the precipitations has reached the ground. Stormwater can contain heavy metals and nutrients depending on the type and size of the catchment area as well as the intensity and regularity of the precipitation. In high amounts, the pollutants can inhibit algal growth and have a negative effect in algal diversity
Fully precise static analysis of program behavior is undecidable in theory and infeasible in practice. While individual static analyses can prove specialized invariants about program behavior or resolve narrow ambiguities, real programs are complex composites of many different abstractions and programming patterns. State-of-the-art approaches to program analysis thus generally rely on composite an
Tänk om du levde i en värld med ett stabilt klimat där fler företag bedrev sin verksamhet utefter cirkulära affärsmodeller. Ett samhälle som anammat mer hållbara konsumtionsbeteenden, skapat fler arbetstillfällen, och äntligen slutat utarma Jordens naturresurser. Vore inte det en härlig tillvaro? Vill vi förverkliga drömmen bör vi ställa oss frågan vad som krävs för att vi ska komma dit. Mer speciThe shortage of Earth’s limited resources is becoming more evident and our planet’s climate system is under immense pressure. To combat these problems, more people investigate the concept of circularity. This study intended to find out what make consumers motivated to buy used items from a professional refurbisher, thereby replacing purchases of brand-new products, and also identifying barriers.
The success of energy transitions in India depends on the feasibility of rapid expansion of solar power. How fast solar power can be expanded depends on its profitability, which has not been systematically analysed in prior literature. This paper answers three questions – (i) What is the profitability of utility scale solar power in six selected states in India (Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, Maharashtra,
CITIES SHOULD BE OPEN AND INCLUSIVE, say municipality officials in Sweden. So why are they not? One answer is norms. Invisible norms are constantly present in our daily lives and affect us by limiting possibilities and narrowing our perspectives and views of each other in ways that can lead to exclusion and discrimination. The norm-critical approach has become a commonly used method to make norms
