This study investigates the impacts of nuclear and renewable energy consumption on Sweden’s environmental quality from 1965 to 2022. The study employs an Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) approach combined with a Bounds test to examine the validity of the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) and Load Capacity Curve (LCC) hypotheses simultaneously. This is conducted within the context of Sweden

Currently well established technology-based manufacturing companies with a service business provides their markets with innovative and reliable products. Despite this, these companies often find their service delivery process to be inefficient, due to its time-based nature. Furthermore, the markets on which they operate are currently experiencing a shortage of qualified service personnel and thus

The aim of this thesis is to study how the ideal middle-class femininity was constructed through fashion in late 19th century Sweden. Fashion have often been studied through the construction of gender, but this study aspires to show how fashion history also can be enriched when combined with closely related fields such as history of the body and of women’s morality. The theoretical framework is co

Popular Abstract in Swedish Prosodi och intonation är viktiga delar i det mänskliga talet. I system för text-till-talomvandling och automatisk taligenkänning måste prosodiska modeller inkluderas för att uppnå acceptabla resultat. Denna avhandling bidrar till modelleringen av svensk prosodi ur lexikalt och akustiskt perspektiv. Tre aspekter av lexikal modellering av prosodi studeras. Vi skisserar Prosody and intonation are very important ingredients of human speech. In speech technology, text-to-speech (TTS) and automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems must incorporate prosodic models in order to reach acceptable performances. We contribute to the modelling of Swedish prosody in a speech technology context from lexical and acoustic angles. Three aspects of lexical prosodic modelling are

Sorption isotherms describe the relation between the equilibrium moisture content of a material and the ambient relative humidity. Most materials exhibits sorption hysteresis, that is, desorption give higher equilibrium moisture contents than absorption at equal ambient climate conditions. Sorption hysteresis is commonly evaluated by determination of an absorption isotherm followed by desorption sSorption isotherms describe the relation between the equilibrium moisture content of a material and the ambient relative humidity.

Epidemiological studies have linked whole grain intake to the prevention of the metabolic syndrome, obesity and associated chronic diseases such as CVD and T2D. The Nutrition module within the HEALTHGRAIN project, included 10 partners and undertook in vitro, animal and humanin vivo studies with the overall aims of elucidating the components and mechanisms underlying the health benefits of cereal g

The terrestrial biosphere is currently a strong sink for anthropogenic CO2 emissions. Through the radiative properties of CO2, the strength of this sink has a direct influence on the radiative budget of the global climate system. The accurate assessment of this sink and its evolution under a changing climate is, hence, paramount for any efficient management strategies of the terrestrial carbon sin

The borderless world is providing new opportunities for conducting business, both within Europe and between continents. Sustainable competition will be harder to attain and competition will become fiercer, day-by-day. The Austrian school of strategy emphasizes change, continuous innovation, and entrepreneurial discovery as sources of supernormal profits. An important assumption is that these super

Avtalet utgör den rättsliga form som avser att reglera rättsförhållanden och är kanske den mest grundläggande och bärande företeelsen inom ramen för relationer mellan rättssubjekt. Ett avtal är en rättshandling som uttrycker en viljeförklaring. Äganderätten har beskrivits som den starkaste av sakrätterna och då det i folkmun talas om äganderätt är det troligtvis den västerländska privatkapitalistiThe contract constitutes the legal form that aims to regulate legal relationships and is probably the most fundamental phenomenon within the framework of relations between legal subjects. The definition of a contract is a legal act that expresses a declaration of will. The right of ownership has been described as the strongest of the property rights. When people talk about property rights, it is p

Loneliness affects over one in five people worldwide, yet how it is experienced is shaped by social and cultural context in ways that research has only partially examined. For men, norms surrounding masculinity, emphasising emotional stoicism, self-reliance and the avoidance of vulnerability, create specific conditions under which loneliness develops, goes unacknowledged, and resists being address

The complement system is one of the most important defence mechanisms against bacteria and pathogens. It acts within the framework of both innate and adaptive immunity. In addition to direct elimination of pathogens, complement also supports waste removal (dying cells, immune complexes, and misfolded proteins) and guides effector mechanisms of the adaptive immune response. Key events in complement

The activity concentration of (CS)-C-137, I-131, Zn-65, Co-60, Co-58, Mn-54, and K-40 were determined in samples of brown seaweed (Fucus) and some other marine plants using low background high-resolution gamma-spectrometry. The algae were mainly sampled in the bay just north of the Barseback NPP (55.4 N, 12.6 E) in the south of Sweden to study the contamination levels in the nearest shallow waters

Popular Abstract in Swedish Humana neutrofiler är vita blodkroppar med den kortaste livslängden. Varje dag frisätts det miljoner neutrofiler från benmärgen till blodet. Från blodbanan är neutrofiler de första celler som anländer och samlas i en infekterad vävnad. Neutrofiler är mest kända för deras anti-mikrobiella funktion. Dessa celler är rustade med olika proteiner för att kunna hitta och döda The human neutrophil is the most abundant granulocyte and the major type of cell involved in an acute inflammatory response. Neutrophils are armed with various systems of enzymes, that can find and kill pathogens, but unfortunately, these "weapons" cannot distinguish between the host tissues and the "invaders." Therefore, an extensive neutrophil reaction leads to continuous release of toxic metabo

Popular Abstract in Swedish Asymmetrisk syntes för framställning av optiskt rena substanser är av stort intresse, inte bara för forskningsändamål utan även för praktiska tillämpningar inom flera olika branscher. Dagligen stöter man på produkter som har sitt ursprung i asymmetrisk syntes; allt från dofter, smakämnen och livräddande läkemedel till nya praktiska plaster med skräddarsydda egenskaper. In this work, the synthesis and characterisation of new low-valence transition metal carbonyl clusters, and an investigation into their viability to act as catalysts/catalyst precursors in asymmetric synthesis, are described. Carbonyl clusters based on ruthenium and osmium have been tested as (pre)catalysts for asymmetric hydrogenation of alpha-unsaturated carboxylic acids, and cobalt carbonyl clu

Abstract in Uncoded languages U ranijim istraživanjima ratnog nasilja, tokom rata u Bosni i Hercegovini, naglašavana je važnost priča ŽRTAVA ali fokus analize nije bio usmjeren na priče o ratnom nasilju, niti su analizirani poslijeratni intervjui kao produkt međuljudske interakcije. Ovom studijom pokušava se popuniti ta praznina analiziranjem priča osobe koje su preživjele rat u sjeverozapadnoj BoPrevious research on violence during the war in Bosnia and Herzegovina have emphasized the importance of narratives without focusing on narratives mentioning war violence, but they have not analyzed stories on war violence that were the product of interpersonal interaction and meaning-making activity. The aim of this study is to fill this knowledge gap by analyzing the narratives of survivors of t

The purpose of this thesis is to question the cause of the lack of consensus surrounding Europe 2020s poverty and social exclusion target – to lift 20 million people out of poverty and social exclusion. The target was a major development for the European Union’s social dimension. Even so, it did not come easily, with divides over the existence and measurement of such a target. The Commission propo
