Avbrottsförsäkring innebär att ett företag kan försäkra sig mot risken att drabbas av indirekta förluster vid egendomsskada såsom att verksamheten kan komma att stå stilla vid t.ex. brand- eller maskinskada. Denna försäkringsform utvecklades i slutet av 1800-talet i England, USA och i Frankrike. I Sverige blev den först allmän i början av 1950 talet. Avbrottsförsäkring ersätter bortfall av det för

Denna uppsats är en undersökning av Ida Börjels Ma, genom att använda Gérard Genettes teori om transtextuella relationer, undersöker uppsatsen Mas relation till Inger Christensens Alfabet, Jaques Roubaud Någonting svart och Birgitta Trotzig Sjukdomen. Framförallt undersöker uppsatsen om Christensens Alfabet kan betraktas som en hypertext till Ma och vilka element som gör att dessa två samlingar st
Cerebral Palsy, commonly referred to as CP, is a neurological disorder that results in loss or impairment of motor function, which affects body movement, muscle control, muscle coordination and balance. In Sweden, about 200 children are diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy every year and the disorder can cause imbalances between the muscles. These imbalances can lead to contractures which is equiva- lent
International work aid is a form of social work that historically has been conducted by non-profit organizations. When the commercial volunteer agencies entered the market they did so with a well-known product but with a different organizational form. The for-profit social enterprise does not only aim to create social value but also financial value. The commercial volunteer travels, called volunto
The aim of this essay is to analyze written formative feedback to investigate whether there are certain patterns and differences in feedback given to students with different grades. This is done to expand the knowledge about what the genre of written formative feedback looks like in a Swedish school setting and what it can mean for the students and their teachers. By applying a move-analysis devel
Galectins are a family of proteins naturally occurring in humans involved in a broad variety of bodily functions, including regulation of immune response and inflammation. The most studied protein of the family, galectin-3, has repeatedly been proven to be involved in tumour progression, affecting both tumour survival and metastasis. Both in vitro and in vivo analyses have yielded information that
The purpose of this essay is threefold. First, to look at the curriculum of English in the upper secondary classroom and what the role of narratology is. Secondly, an analysis of Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone (2001) and Journey (2012) through Campbell’s monomyth and how the stages are presented to the viewer/player. Lastly, how these media and analysis are beneficial in teaching narrato
The aim of this thesis is motivated by three parallel discussions; the popular Lutheran rhetoric in placing law against grace, the discussion in contemporary moral philosophy where a neutral perspective on ethical assessments is assumed, and a recent Swedish case and public debate in which a minority group's need for bodily integrity was breached with reference to universal principles. These d
Phantoms mimicking the specific mechanical and acoustic properties of human tissues are essential in the development and evaluation of novel ultrasound methods. In this work, various ultrasound phantoms are proposed to be used in the development of ultrasound methods to investigate the arterial walls longitudinal movements influence on the vasa vasorum circulation. The longitudinal movement of art
Companies want to keep their customers. Especially, when they offer subscription based services instead of one time purchases. In the former case, if customers want to leave the company, they need to cancel their subscription. This is called customer churn. On the example of One.com, a company that offers subscription based web hosting, a mathematical model is developed to predict customer churn,
A large-scale international report recently published by Transgender Europe shows great discrepancy between the patients’ and the caregivers’ views on transgender care. Apart from this report, those working in transgender care have yet to make their voices heard. However, transgender individuals as well as organizations working with issues of the transgender and queer communities in Sweden have be
In this thesis I investigate the notion of imagination in Romantic thought and in the visual art of William Blake with the aim of making a contribution to theological methodology. In early German Romanticism, as well as in the art of William Blake, the concept of imagination plays a central role in the relationship between the Absolute and the perceiving and knowing subject. My thesis takes its st
Due to the ongoing urbanisation, the urban environment will consist of extended impervious areas, such as roof tops, roads and parking lots. During rainfall events these kinds of impermeable areas will cause a faster and larger response in runoff, which can lead to an increased load on the storm-water system and thus increase the risk of flooding. In certain areas, the situation will be further wo
Det kan i dagsläget vara svårt att veta hur många som vistas i en byggnad. Detta är problematiskt sett ur räddningstjänstens perspektiv. Om räddningstjänsten under räddningsinsatser vet hur många personer som finns kvar i en byggnad samt var de befinner sig, kan räddningsinsatsen effektiviseras. Utrymningssystem som har kännedom om personers position i en byggnad medger möjlighet att i realtid väg
We consider quasi-periodic standing wave solutions U(t, x) = exp(i(ωt−px))Ψ(x) to the one-dimensional defocusing cubic nonlinear Schrödinger equation, where we assume that Ψ : R → C is 2π−periodic. We study a constrained minimization problem associated with these solutions, and we show that solutions with minimal period of Ψ(x) strictly less than 2π cannot be minimizers, whereas locally the minimu
Instrumental analysis in metabolomics has proven to be a challenging topic due to metabolites having a wide spectrum of physiochemical properties and concentrations. The more conventional techniques in metabolomics include gas chromatography and liquid chromatography coupled with mass spectrometric (MS) detection. In most cases these techniques provide methods that are adequate for metabolomic res
Although most microplastics (<5 mm in length or diameter, depending on shape) are not visible they can be found everywhere in the environment. The effects can be devastating and much greater than what has been proven so far, as there is a lack of knowledge about the impact, spread and extent of microplastics. The Swedish EPA published a report in June 2017 which reveals a number of major microplas
Syfte: Syftet med denna uppsats är öka förståelsen för vad som bidrar till ett högt organisatoriskt engagemang hos medarbetare. Metod: En kvalitativ fallstudie på företaget Carl F. Datainsamling har primärt genomförts genom semistrukturerade intervjuer och det analytiska ramverket som har använts är kategorisk reducering genom ett tolkande synsätt. Teoretiskt perspektiv: Studien utgår från Meyer
