Utländska studier gör gällande att depersonalisationssyndrom (DPD) är lika vanligt som bipolär sjukdom eller tvångssyndrom. Trots detta betraktas DPD som ett ovanligt tillstånd inom psykiatrin. Det anses inte vara en självständig diagnos, utan endast symtom vid andra störningar. Depersonalisationssyndrom uppges därför av forskare vara en av den moderna tidens mest förbisedda diagnoser. Ingen svensStudies claim that depersonalization disorder (DPD) is just as common as bipolar disorder or obsessive-compulsive disorder. DPD is, despite this fact, seen as a rare condition within psychiatry, and not considered to be a diagnosis on its own.

När ett entreprenadavtal som införlivat AB 04 hävs, omfattar hävningen endast de ”återstående arbetena”, eftersom de redan utförda arbetena inte kan återgå till entreprenören. Beställaren behåller i stället dessa arbeten, och entreprenören gottskrivs arbetenas värde med hänsyn till eventuella fel. Men vad gäller om fel senare konstateras i de utförda arbetena? AB 04 anger att en garanti- och ansvaWhen a construction contract incorporating AB 04 is terminated, the termination only covers the remaining works, since the work already performed can-not be reversed. The client retains the performed works, and the contractor is credited for their value, taking into account any defects. But what applies if defects are later discovered in the completed works? Since such defects were not considered

De första universiteten i Europa grundades i en tid då samhället var strikt hierarkiskt. Det bestod av sammanslutningar, så kallade korporationer, med olika rättigheter och skyldigheter sinsemellan. Universitetet utvecklades till att bli en sådan korporation. Efterhand tillerkändes vissa korporationer privilegier, inledningsvis av den andliga makten och sedan av den värdsliga. Ett av de privilegieThe first universities in Europe were founded during a time when society was strictly hierarchical. It consisted of various associations, so called corporations, each with their own different rights and obligations. The university developed to become such a corporation. Subsequently, certain privileges were granted certain corporations, at first by the spiritual power and later by the worldly powe

In modern state-development it is common practice to use one language for unifying people in a nation or region. However, in the wake of decolonisation, many African states found themselves struggling with the decision to pick a national language. African languages are rarely dominating whole nations, making it hard to choose one language as a tool for unity. The kiSwahili language is therefore a

This Master’s thesis studies the effect of infrasound acoustic waves on heat transfer enhancement for industrial purposes. Previous research has demonstrated the cap ability of infrasound to cool steel uniformly, with performance comparable to forced convection. This opens the possibility of increasing the efficiency of the cooling process while also enabling new potential cooling methods for diff
