Kristianstadsslätten breder ut sig i nordöstra Skåne och in i sydvästra Blekinge med sin komplicerade och varierade geologi. De komplexa förhållandena leder till att det finns ett flertal akvifärer i både jordlager och berggrund, där den mest vattenförande formationen är den av glaukonitsand. Syftet med arbetet har varit att undersöka vilket infiltrerat vattenflöde, vid vilket pumptryck, en brunn Kristianstad plain stretches from the northeast of Scania to the southwest of Blekinge with a complicated and varying geology. The complexity has resulted in multiple aquifers in both soil and bedrock, where the highest amount of withdrawable groundwater is in the formation of glauconite sand. The aim of this paper has been to investigate which infiltrated water flow at a certain pumping pressure,
Den 30 mars 2017 presenterade Finansdepartementet Vissa frågor inom fastighets- och stämpelskatteområdet (SOU 2017:27), även kallat paketeringsutredningen. Förslagen som utredningen presenterade innebär bland annat att transaktioner med paketerade fastigheter ska beskattas symmetriskt med lagfartsöverlåtelser, till skillnad från nuläget då de kan ske skattefritt genom försäljning av näringsbetingaOn March 30th 2017 the special appointed committee from the Swedish Treasury Department presented Vissa frågor inom fastighets- och stämpelskatteområdet (SOU 2017:27), also known as “paketeringsutredningen”. Suggestions from the public investigation include among other things amendments stating that transactions of incorporated real estate should be taxed symmetrically with traditionally transacti
Chemical hazard assessment is a procedure in chemical regulation to set which concentrations of chemical substances that are safe to an ecological system, i.e. where a majority of the species in the systems is not negatively affected by the substance. The Species Sensitivity Distribution (SSD) is an assessment model to estimate hazardous concentration based on toxicity data from representative spe
Detta arbete berör ämnet återbruk och återanpassning av en befintlig byggnad i en nutida kontext. Byggnaden som jag valt att studera är Sundhammars barnkoloni, byggd år 1937, belägen invid kusten i södra Bohuslän. Trots att byggnaden bedöms vara en av de bäst bevarade barnkolonibyggnaderna så saknar den skydd, varpå den vid flertalet tillfällen hotats av rivning. Målet med detta examensarbete äThis work concerns the topic of reuse and readaptation of an existing building in a contemporary context. The building I have chosen to study is Sundhammars barnkoloni, built in 1937, located next to the coast in the southern part of Bohuslän. Although the building is considered to be one of the best preserved children’s colony buildings, it lacks protection, whereupon it has been threatened with
Concrete is sometimes damaged by freezing. The damage increases if salt also is present. The damage consists of the removal of small flakes on the surface of the concrete, the inner structure may however be completely unaffected. This surface damage may increase the degree of saturation and ingress of e.g. chloride ions, which may lead to inner frost damage and corrosion on the reinforcing steel.
The aim of this essay was to examine how school principals view their own and school’s responsibility when a child is suffering and in what way the principals believe that school can promote a favorable development for a child who is suffering. By thematically open interviews of four school principals at various schools in a southern swedish municipality I examined their view on their own and scho
The concept of OptimalTempered Asphalt, OTA, stands for the best temperature all aspects considered for the bitumen and the manufacturing process as well as the end-product. This is achieved in various ways using additives, choice of manufacturing procedure and changing mixture of asphalt. This bachelor thesis is a study of the effects the additive Sasobit has on bitumen and asphalt from an OTA pe
Konkurrensrätt och immaterialrätt har länge betraktats vara rättsområden som skyddar motstående intressen. En av de regleringar som finns för att underlätta förhållandet mellan de två rättsområdena är kommissionens förordning nr 772/2004 för grupper av avtal om tekniköverföring. Genom denna förordning önskar kommissionen garantera en effektiv konkurrens på marknaden samt erbjuda företag som ingår Competition Law and Intellectual Property Law are sometimes considered as areas of law which protect conflicting interests. One of the regulations striving to facilitate the relationship between these two areas is Regulation 772/2004, on the application of article 101.1 TFEU to categories of technology transfer agreements. The objectives of this Regulation are to ensure effective competition and t
Both the EU and Member States in treatment of third-country nationals have to follow so-called “international minimum standard of treatment of aliens”, meaning that states are allowed to treat aliens in the same way as their own nationals, but in no case such treatment to be less than fundamental human rights stipulated in contemporary international instruments. Such standard is not stipulated in
BACKGROUND: Despite complex illness trajectories and a high symptom burden, palliative care has been sub-optimal for patients with end-stage kidney disease and hemodialysis treatment who have a high rate of hospitalization and intensive care towards end of life. There is a growing awareness that further development of palliative care is required to meet the needs of these patients and their family
Pavement data collection is the most expensive and time consuming component of Pavement Management System (PMS). Thus, possible methods of minimizing the need of such data might be critical in reducing pavement condition monitoring costs. Also the ability to relate pavement performance prediction models (frequently roughness based) to hot mix asphalt field performance models (distress based) provi
As climate models can be used to reproduce historical climates, the outcomes can be used to put climate extremes in to a proper historical perspective. This also allows investigation of nonlinear properties of hydrologic processes (e.g. precipitation, runoff) to better understand regional hydrologic dynamics. To this end, the present study uses results from a so-called 'paleosimulation' (i.e. simu
The concentrations of gas-phase potassium hydroxide (KOH), potassium chloride (KCl) and atomic potassium (K(g)) were quantitatively measured from the near-surface to downstream area of burning pinewood pellets by a newly developed photofragmentation tunable diode laser absorption spectroscopy (PF-TDLAS) technique to reveal the original form of the released potassium. The novel arrangement of the P
Information relating to errors in evapotranspiration (ET) products, including satellite-derived ET products, is critical to their application but often challenging to obtain, with a limited number of flux towers available for the sufficient validation of measurements. Triple collocation (TC) methods can assess the inherent uncertainties of the above ET products using just three independent variabl
Objectives: To analyse the living conditions and social outcomes (housing, engagement in employment or higher education, access to personal assistance and having a partner) in adults with cerebral palsy (CP) relative to their age, sex, communication ability, and motor skills. Methods: Cross-sectional registry-based study of 1,888 adults (1,030 males/858 females) with CP in the Swedish CP follow-up
In laboratory medicine, much effort has been put into analytical quality in the past decades, making this medical profession one of the most standardized with the lowest rates of error. However, even the best analytical quality cannot compensate for errors or low quality in the pre or postanalytical phase of the total testing process. Guidelines for data reporting focus solely on defined data elem
The increasing demand for energy-efficient and sustainable construction necessitates the need for building envelope designs that effectively balance moisture safety with sustainability. Improper moisture management in building envelopes can lead to severe consequences, including construction damage, decreased energy performance, and health risks associated with microbial growth. For instance, wate
Background: Adverse events induced by intravesical bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) to treat high-grade non–muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) often lead to treatment discontinuation. The EAU-RF NIMBUS trial found a reduced number of standard-dose BCG instillations to be inferior with the standard regimen. Nonetheless, it remains important to evaluate whether patients in the reduced BCG treatmen
