The influence of processing and cooking on the metabolic response to carrots in mixed meals was explored in two consecutive harvest years. The contribution of dietary fibre (4.4 g 1989 and 6.6 g 1990) from carrots was chosen to be different in order to compare effects with varying doses. The meals, composed of carrots, creamed potatoes, meat balls, lingonberry jam, white bread and light beer, were
Denna avhandling utforskar relationen mellan politik och nya medier genom en studie av digital diplomati i den Europeiska utrikestjänsten (EEAS) 2011-2017. Den belyser hur en diplomatisk organisation internaliserar medielogik. Traditionella ansatser utgår ofta från att medielogiken tar över den politiska logiken. I denna avhandling betonas istället betydelsen av politisk kontext, dess aktörer och This thesis explores the relationship between politics and new media in the context of digital diplomacy at the European External Action Service (EEAS) 2011-2017. In contrast to dominant approaches to the mediatization of politics that consider political logic to be dominated or even replaced by media logic, it gives greater emphasis to the role of the political context, its actors and their pract
The maximum likelihood principle of estimation applied to the linear black-box identification problem gives models with theoretically attractive properties. Also, the method has been applied to industrial data (various processes in paper production) and proved able to work in practice.This paper presents further developments of the method in the case of a single output. The reliability and speed o
Increasing security in transports without negatively affecting the logistical flow makes efficiency a critical factor. To achieve a viable end-to-end security solution in a supply chain, with complex network of dependencies, requires a holistic perspective. The pilot project was driven by Volvo Technology and it involved important stakeholders in the supply chain and port domain focusing on the PoIncreasing security in transports without negatively affecting the logistical flow makes efficiency a critical factor.

The performance of a dry sampler, with an impregnated denuder in series with a glass fibre filter, using di-n-butylamine (DBA) for airborne isocyanates (200ml min-1) is investigated and compared with an impinger flask with a glass fibre filter in series (1 l min-1). An exposure chamber containing 1,6-hexamethylene diisocyanate (HDI), isophorone diisocyanate (IPDI), and 2,4- and 2,6-toluene diisocy
Resorting more and more to e-learning means a thorough transformation of the teaching processes. Once the teacher-student communication is realized on yahoo-groups or Facebook-groups, the classical roles in the classroom become obsolete. With teachers having the possibility to enter in due time on students’ forums, the former relation of power in education moves to a collaborative one. More and mo
I förarbetena till reglerna om materiell processledning anges att omfattningen av domstolens aktivitet måste avgöras mot bakgrund av vad som är motiverat av syftena. Beroende på vilket syfte som är det huvudsakliga kan därför tänkas att den ram som domstolen ska hålla sig inom vid den processledande verksamheten blir olika. Det är därför viktigt att fastställa det huvudsakliga syftet. Det problemIn the legislative history concerning the set of rules that govern the courts direction of proceedings, it can be inferred that the extent of the court's involvement should be a result of what’s motivated by the purposes. It is appropriate to assume that depending on what is determined as the main purpose, the frame for the court's direction of proceedings will vary – along with the outcom
Loss of biodiversity is an important environmental problem. Many species are threatened due to loss of habitats and fragmentation. Furthermore, loss of biodiversity affects the forests ability to provide ecosystem services such as water regulation. Most people live in urban areas and therefore urban forests are important for recreation and to reduce stress among the citizens, but the forests are a
In January 2014 a reformed CFP came into force in the EU. The reformed policy tackled many of the policy field’s troubled areas and offered realistic solutions for elements of the policy which had been criticised for years by academics, stakeholders and even EU institutions. The purpose of this thesis is to explain how the reformed policy came about and in doing so it adopts a case study design wh
Fysiska och juridiska personer är i någon form av förhållande med varandra baserat på olika omständigheter. När två parter är oense om en fråga vill de givetvis lösa situationen på något sätt. Denna lösning ligger för många hos statliga domstolar där den ena parten stämmer den andra parten vid tingsrätten som första instans. I vissa tänkta utfall är förhållandet baserat på ett avtal som parterna Natural and legal persons are in some form of relationship with each other based on different circumstances. When two parties disagree about an issue, they naturally want to resolve the situation in some way. For many, this solution lies with state courts where one party sues the other party at the district court as first instance. In some scenarios, the relationship is based on a contract that t
Bakgrund. Industrierna utsätts för allt större press att anpassa sig till de håll- barhetsregler som införs. Detta tvingar industrierna att utmana de traditionella tillverkningsprocesser och hitta sätt att göra dem mer hållbara. I de traditionella industrierna används mycket kylvätska, som har stor inverkan på både den miljön och den sociala hållbarheten. Två produktionsmetoder uppvisar betydande Background. Industries are facing increasing pressure to adapt to sustainability regulations being put in place. This forces industries to rethink traditional manufac- turing operations and find ways to make them more sustainable. In the traditional industries there are a lot of coolants being used, these have a big impact on both the environment sustainability as well as social sustainability. Tw
The objective of this paper is to analyse the Constructive Dialogue, an initiative for collaborative and integrated urban governance for a sustainable built environment. The dialogue processes, implemented in six Swedish cities in 2004-2009, involved various actors and many types of initiative. Designed as a meta-analysis based on existing evaluations and supplementary interviews, this study exami
Åre municipality, a well-known skiing resort in Sweden, has been classified as a primary risk area for landslides, due to a combination of global warming and increased pressure from expansion. The purpose of this study is to explore options to strengthen climate adaptation planning and reduce vulnerability in Åre. This thesis is a qualitative single-case study with results relevant for sensitive m
Det finns önskemål från kommunens sida att öka det kommunala engagemanget hos medborgare i allmänhet och hos yngre medborgare i synnerhet. Detta kan vara allt från att engagera sig i upprättandet av en staty, till att anmäla en nedbrunnen grillplats. Datakonsultföretaget Abou AB har i samråd med vissa kommuner kommit fram till att en mobil applikation kan vara en möjlig kanal när det kommer till aProblem There is a desire by the municipalities to increase local involvement of citizens in general and of young citizens in particular. Computer consultancy firm Abou AB, in consultation with some of the municipalities, has concluded that a mobile application can be a possible channel when it comes to increasing the municipal engagement. Examples may be ranging from engagement in the question o
Rätten till arbete, som utgör en av de mest centrala mänskliga rättigheterna och även ses som en grundläggande förutsättning för samhällsintegrering, är införlivad i en rad olika MR-instrument. Lika tillgång till arbetsmarknaden är en mycket viktig aspekt av denna rättighet, som även utmanar den underliggande norm om universalitet som präglar det internationella ramverket för mänskliga rättigheterThe right to work, as one of the most crosscutting and enabling socio-economic rights, as well as a basic requirement for social integration, is enshrined in a wide range of international human rights instruments. Equal access to the labour market is one important aspect of this right that challenges the underlying universality norm of the human rights regime by imposing on states the obligation t
This master’s thesis analysed sustainable development policies in China’s 11th Five-Year Plan and sustainable development considerations at the building of the Bui Dam in Ghana. The theory section discusses and defines sustainable development, and in the method section, ‘ideal-types’ of economic, social and environmental development were developed. These ideal-types were then used as reference poi
The purpose of this study was to examine, with a social constructionist and discourse analytic approach, how detention, detainment and forced return are represented in two Official Reports of the Swedish Government named “Förvarsutredningen” (Detention Report) (SOU 2009:60, SOU 2011:17). The aim of this study was also to examine how the proposals that are suggested in the reports are presented, ar
