In a world where the concept of just-in-time has been lifted outside of the manu-facturing world and onto the market, the increasing demand of luxury wares like cars is accompanied only by tougher industrial conditions and no room for error. Loss of productivity and decrease in efficiency can be devastating to any manufac-turing company in today’s market climate. One of the largest causes of these
As the negative environmental impacts of contemporary agriculture become still more evident and widespread, the question of how to feed future generations while preserving the vital stability of the planet’s environment is more urgent than ever. Major institutions are targeting the environmental sustainability of agriculture, internationally as well as in Brazil. Brazil is one of the largest agric
Many product-based companies have identified digital services as a promising way to differentiate themselves and to stimulate future growth. However, as digital services frequently induce a business model change to a pay-per-use or subscription model, companies see themselves increasingly challenged as their revenues are progressively dependent on customers’ actual usage. This is in contrast to th
The polar ice cap in the Arctic is receding, which has led to an increase in activity in the region. As the Arctic is becoming more accessible, economic opportunities are opening, making territorial claims in the region increasingly interesting to the Arctic Coastal States. This thesis focuses on the legal regime governing a future division of the Arctic Ocean. Given certain provisions are met, th
Domstolsprocessen i dispositiva tvistemål präglas av avtalsfrihet mellan parterna. Det är parterna själva som sätter ramarna för prövningen och domstolens utredningsansvar minskas väsentligt jämfört med indispositiva tvistemål och brottmål. För en juridiskt kunnig eller ekonomiskt stark part (med råd att anlita ett skickligt ombud) kan det vara en fördel att själv bestämma tvistens innehåll. Så ärCivil proceedings can be divided into cases which are, and which are not, amenable to out-of-court settlement. In proceedings with no peremptory norms the parties themselves decide the substantive content of the legal dispute. According to Swedish law, the court’s responsibility to investigate is insignificant compared to civil cases with peremptory norms and criminal cases. The right to decide th
Bitcoin och andra liknande kryptovalutor är rättsligt sätt relativt nya företeelser. Mot bakgrund av dess våldsamma ökning i värde de senaste åren samt det faktum att många aktörer tycks bli mer och mer positiva till alternativa investeringar i kryptovalutor försöker följande uppsats svara på frågan i vilken ut-sträckning svensk rätt tolererar pantsättning av bitcoin. För att besvara frågan undeThe topic of cryptocurrencies such as bitcoin is rather new phenomenon in Swedish law. The last few years cryptocurrencies, but more specifically, bitcoin has seen rapid growth in value which in turn has led to a growing in-terest in bitcoin as an alternative asset to invest in. The following thesis will try to answer the question to which extent Swedish law tolerate using bitcoin as the asset tha
Stigande energianvändning och global uppvärmning har lett till en ökad efterfrågan av förnyel-sebara energikällor. Ett alternativ är att utnyttja avloppsvatten för att producera biogas. Avlopps-vatten kan därav ses som en resurs snarare än avfall. I biogasproduktion används anaerob ned-brytning där mikroorganismer bryter ner organiskt material till metan. Primär rening är första steget inom avlopThe global heating has resulted in rising temperatures and more extreme weather conditions around the world. In combination with increasing energy demands, this has led to an increasing demand of renewable energy. One option is utilizing the wastewater to produce biogas. There-fore, wastewater can be seen as a resource rather than waste. Biogas production is based on anaerobic digestion where micr
Med tanke på den ökade gängkriminaliteten i Sverige under de senaste åren har en stor debatt kring anonyma vittnen skapats och fått stor uppmärksamhet. Inte minst efter att vi fick en ny regering under hösten 2022 som genom Tidöavtalet har lovat att införa ett system med anonyma vittnen. Sverige är ett av de få länderna i EU som inte tillåter anonyma vittnen i dagsläget men det kommer sannolikt atConsidering the increased gang-related crime in Sweden in recent years, a significant debate on anonymous witnesses has emerged and gained considerable attention. This is particularly notable following the formation of a new government in the autumn of 2022, which, through the Tidö Agreement, has pledged to introduce a system of anonymous witnesses. Sweden is one of the few countries in the Europe
Huvudregeln gällande en stats brukande av våld framgår av artikel 2(4) i Förenta nationernas stadga. Av artikeln så framgår ett förbud för såväl hot som bruk av våld. Då det görs i syfte att inskränka en annan stats politiska oberoende eller territoriella integritet. Till detta så förbjuds även sådana hot eller bruk av våld som kan anses vara oförenligt med Förenta nationernas värdegrund. Av artikArticle 2(4) of the Charter of the United Nations presents the general rule regarding states use of force in international relations. The article states that all members are obliged to refrain from threat or use of force against another member states political independence or territorial integrity. Additionally, actions of threats or use of force that are in violation of the purposes of the United
Green energy defaults (where the uptake of renewable energy is promoted among households by opt-out tariffs) are gaining increasing interest with policy makers, due to the high enrolment rates shown in (experimental) studies. Such default choices are often justified on normative and behavioural grounds as although consumers express a desire and willingness to pay for green energy, they often fail
The unicellular green alga of genus Chlamydomonas are well studied within the fields of photosynthesis and flagellar research. Although many molecular tools have been developed for use on Chlamydomonas, little research has been done on its ecology and population dynamics. Species within the genus are morphologically indistinguishable using light microscopy and as such a molecular method is necessa
Context: Late-onset hypogonadism (LOH) has recently been defined as a syndrome in middle-aged and elderly men reporting sexual symptoms in the presence of low T. The natural history of LOH, especially its relationship to mortality, is currently unknown. Objective: The aim of this study was to clarify the associations between LOH, low T, and sexual symptoms with mortality in men. Design, Setting, a
Numerous broad insights have emerged in the last decades concerning the invasive non-indigenous round goby (Neogobius melanostomus) and its expanding presence in the Baltic Sea. The waters surrounding the Danish isles are the final frontiers separating the Baltic Sea from the North Sea, and although they offer highly favourable habitats, the biotic resistance in Öresund by native competitors might
Under de senaste åren har ett antal fall av hets till självmord på internet och sociala medier uppmärksammats såväl nationellt som internationellt. Under våren år 2018 rapporterade medier i Sverige om ett svenskt fall där en polisman givit en ung kvinna instruktioner via sms om hur hon bäst skulle begå självmord. Eftersom självmord och självmordsförsök inte är kriminaliserat blir medverkansreglernIn recent years, a number of cases of incitement to suicide on the internet and social media have been highlighted both nationally and internationally. In spring 2018, media reported on a Swedish case where a policeman gave a young woman instructions through text messages about how to best commit suicide. Since suicide and suicide attempts are not criminalized, the rules of complicity are not appl
Human-induced climate change has emerged as one of the greatest sustainability challenges of our time, with significant risks for human health, livelihoods and security. However, technological solutions to phase out the use of fossil fuels in industrialized countries are politically contested. Their adoption depends on disrupting the institutions and behaviours that perpetuate the dependence on fo
This paper compares two flow routing algorithms' influences on ecohydrological estimations in a northern peatland catchment, within the framework of an arctic-enabled version of the dynamic ecosystem model LPJ-GUESS. Accurate hydrological estimations are needed to fully capture vegetation dynamics and carbon fluxes in the subarctic peatland enviroment. A previously proposed distributed hydrologica
This study highlights the expansion of butterflies and macromoths occurring in southern Sweden. Recent changes in climate and habitat has been stressed as the main factors influencing changes in species distributions. Climate change implies an increase in temperature and some species are assumed to extend their northern ranges. In this study we compiled information about the first observations of
Background When acute coronary syndrome (ACS) cannot be ruled out, emergency department (ED) patients with chest pain are admitted for in-hospital observation because of the risk of complications such as arrhythmia and acute heart failure. A study was undertaken to compare the ability of three risk prediction models to identify patients at a very low risk of complications. Methods 559 consecutive
Johan Ekeblad was a Swedish diplomat and nobleman during the period of the Swedish Empire in the 17th century who is mostly known for his letters, written in an impressionistic and highly modern style. This paper aims to treat Johan Ekeblad and his writing as a representative of a new form of mentality that emerged amongst Swedes when Sweden due to its new power reemerged on the European scene. Th
Inom industrin används många typer av värmekällor. Det kan vara öppna lågor, IR strålning, resistiv uppvärmning eller induktionsvärmning. Induktionsvärmningen är en värmingstyp med hög energidensitet, låg investeringskostnad, snabb uppstartstid och hög flexibilitet. Ett serieresonant induktionsvärmningssystem består i sin enklaste form av en växelspänningskälla, en spole, en kondensator och objektMany different types of heat sources are used in the industry. Some of these are open flames, IR-radiation, resistive heating and induction heating. Induction heating is a heating technology that have a high energy density, fast start up times and high flexibility. A simple series resonant induction heating system consists of a voltage source, a capacitor, an inductor and the object to be heated.
