In order to properly design an absorption tower for CO2 capture knowledge on the absorption rate of CO2 is required. Several methods can be used to determine the absorption rate, such as a wetted wall column (WWC), stirred absorption cell or a string of discs setup. The aim of this work was to determine the absorption flux of CO2 into different amine solutions using anew method. Two absorption sys
We present a new methodology, which we call Single Pair of Observations Technique with Eddy Covariance (SPOT-EC), to estimate regional-scale surface fluxes of 222Rn from tower-based observations of 222Rn activity concentration, CO2 mole fractions and direct CO2 flux measurements from eddy covariance. For specific events, the regional (222Rn) surface flux is calculated from short-term changes in am
This thesis is a study of the phenomenon modern furniture classics in a contemporary Swedish context. Classics have a strong and normative position in the world of design, and what the concept of modern furniture classic entails is often taken for granted and rarely problematised. The main objectives of the study is to investigate what a modern furniture classic is and how it attains the status of
Popular Abstract in Swedish Psykiatriska vårdares erfarenheter av omvårdnad, grupphandledning och individuellt planerad omvårdnad på en avdelning för vård av gravt dementa personer och på en allmänpsykiatrisk avdelning. Avhandlingens övergripande syfte var att undersöka vårdarnas upplevelse av omvårdnadsarbetet samt betydelsen och effekterna av införandet av systematisk klinisk grupphandledning oThe aim of this thesis was to investigate nurses’ lived experience of daily nursing care and the impact and lived experiences of one years intervention with systematic clinical group supervision and supervised individually planned nur-sing care. This was carried out at an experimental ward (EW) (n=19) housing patients with dementia in comparison with a similar control ward (CW) (n=20) using a quas
A systematic review of radiation therapy trials in several tumour types was performed by The Swedish Council of Technology Assessment in Health Care (SBU). The procedures for evaluation of the scientific literature are described separately (Acta Oncol 2003; 42: 357-365). This synthesis of the literature on radiation therapy for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is based on data from 4 meta-analys
Environmental manipulation experiments showed that species respond individualistically to each environmental-change variable. The greatest responses of plants were generally to nutrient, particularly nitrogen, addition. Summer warming experiments showed that woody plant responses were dominant and that mosses and lichens became less abundant. Responses to warming were controlled by moisture availa
Reconstructions of palaeomagnetic secular variation (PSV) in sediment cores can be compared to well-dated regional PSV master curves to infer deposition age. The existing PSV master curve for Fennoscandia, "Fennostack" (Snowball et al., 2007), is limited to the past 10 ka. In this study, we construct a deglacial (for the interval 14-11 ka) PSV master curve for Fennoscandia by including data from a
We report on a theoretical study of the electronic structures of InSb and GaSb nanowires oriented along the [001] and [111] crystallographic directions. The nanowires are described by atomistic, tight-binding models, including spin-orbit interaction. The band structures and the wave functions of the nanowires are calculated by means of a Lanczos iteration algorithm. For the [001]-oriented InSb and
In sensor network applications with low traffic intensity, idle channel listening is one of the main sources of energy waste.The use of a dedicated low-power wake-up receiver (WRx) which utilizes duty-cycled channel listening can significantlyreduce idle listening energy cost. In this thesis such a scheme is introduced and it is called DCW-MAC, an acronym forduty-cycled wake-up receiver based medi
Purpose - This paper aims to explore the electronic design of the Touch Hand: a low-cost electrically powered prosthetic hand. The hand is equipped with an array of sensors allowing for position control and haptic sensation. Pressure sensors are used on the fingertips to detect grip force. A temperature sensor placed in the fingertip is used to measure the contact temperature of objects. Investiga
The cholesterol-lowering effect of oats is well established, but the crucial properties eliciting this effect need to be further investigated to optimize the use of oats as functional foods. Furthermore, there are almost no reports investigating the effect of oats on atherosclerosis development. This thesis describes our work with finding suitable mouse models to study cholesterol-lowering and ant
Introduction: Specific coffee subtypes and tea may impact risk of pre- and post-menopausal breast cancer differently. We investigated the association between coffee (total, caffeinated, decaffeinated) and tea intake and risk of breast cancer. Methods: A total of 335,060 women participating in the European Prospective Investigation into Nutrition and Cancer (EPIC) Study, completed a dietary questio
In 2015, media reported on new allegations of sexual exploitation and abuse committed by UN peacekeepers against civilians. This was not the first time such allegations were made. Although a number of measures have been taken at the UN level to combat these crimes, the problem persists. The majority of the personnel in UN peacekeeping operations are members of national military contingents, and
In order to increase the traffic safety on two-lane roads the Swedish Road Administration introduced new milled rumble strips in the middle of the lane. These rumble strips are a way to attract drivers attention if they are about to unintentionally leave the lane. The milled rumble strips cause both internal and external noise and vibration internally in the vehicle. The Swedish Road Administratio
Principalansvar innebär att man blir ansvarig för någon annans vållande och är således en avvikelse från den svenska skadeståndsrättens grundprincip som föreskriver att man endast ansvarar för sina egna handlingar. Innan skadeståndslagen (SkL) trädde ikraft fanns endast rättspraxis som underlag för ett inskränkt principalansvar. Genom införandet av skadeståndslagen blev arbetsgivarens principalansVicarious liability means being responsible for someone else's negligence and therefor a deviation from the Swedish tort law basic principle, which states that you are only responsible for your own actions. Before the Swedish Liability Act (SkL) came into force there were only case law as the basis for a limited vicarious liability. With the introduction of the Liability Act the vicarious liab
Den nuvarande svenska arbetsrätten kan vara på kollisionskurs med EU-rätten avseende tidsbegränsade anställningar när det gäller implementeringen av direktiv 99/70/EG. EU-kommissionen anser att det finns en kollision mellan direktivet och sättet det införlivats i nationell rätt. Det finns bärkraftiga argument att samma skyddsnivå som avses i direktivet uppfylls indirekt genom de svenska arbetsrättCurrent Swedish labor rules may be on a collision with the European legal rules concerning time-limited employments arising from the EU directive 99/70/EC. The view of the European commission is that the directive has not been fulfilled and properly incorporated in the national rules. There are valid arguments that the level of protection as intended in the directive is achieved, regardless of the
Det är en allmän rättsgrundsats att såväl förvaltningsmyndigheter som domstolar ska motivera de beslut eller avgöranden som meddelas. Denna skyldighet har vid ett flertal tillfällen konstaterats vara en grundpelare för att upprätthålla den enskildes rättssäkerhet i förvaltningsprocessen. Trots att ämnet under en längre tid har diskuterats generellt i såväl lagförarbeten som doktrin och praxis frånIt is a principle of Swedish law that public administrative authorities and courts give a reasoning for their decisions or judgements. This obligation has on several occasions been found to be a part of the very foundation of the rule of law in the administrative judicial procedure. Although the matter has been subject to general discussion for a long time, in both legislative history, jurispruden
Uppskattningsvis ligger idag mellan 2,5 till 20 miljoner ton olja i vrak runt världens kuster. Under tusentals år har den kommersiella sjöfarten dominerat haven. Det var dock inte förrän industrialiseringen på 1800-talet som olja började användas i allt större utsträckning. I den kommersiella sjöfarten är frakt av miljöfarliga ämnen inte något ovanligt, varje dag skeppas cirka en halv miljon ton oCurrently, between 2,5 and 20 million tons of oil are found in shipwrecks around the world. For thousands of years, commercial sea transport has dominated the seas. However, it was not until the industrial revolution in the 19th century that oil started being used extensively. Within commercial sea transport, the shipping of environmentally hazardous substances is not uncommon. About half a millio
