Media and politicians have begun to address related problems, acknowledging the fact that human impact on nature is a real problem that poses as a threat to our future.

The purpose of this Master Thesis was to design an automatic separator, a machine that would separate organic from non-organic waste through a mechanical process. The use of a mechanical process was one of the target specifications given by WTM AB, the company that initiated the project. WTM is a small machine design company located in Ängelholm, Sweden, who designs machines for different kind of

There were around one million apartments built in Sweden during 1965 to 1974 as part of the so called Swedish Million Programme, almost half of them concentrated in Stockholm, Gothenburg and Malmoe. These building are now considered unattractive. The need of renovation is urgent in many aspects -ventilation, windows, balconies, facades and sanitary pipe replacement. The total investment cost for t

Lojalitetsplikten i kommersiella avtalsförhållanden kan definieras som skyl-digheten för parterna i relationen att tillvarata motpartens intressen utöver sina egna. Lojalitetsplikten kan härledas långt tillbaka i historien men det är först under 1900-talets andra hälft som saker började hända och denna utveckling tog rejäl fart under de senaste ca 20 åren. Lojal samverkan mellan parterna står ibla

Background: Overdiagnosis and subsequent overtreatment are important side effects of screening for, and early detection of, prostate cancer (PCa). Active surveillance (AS) is of growing interest as an alternative to radical treatment of low-risk PCa. Objective: To update our experience in the largest worldwide prospective AS cohort. Design, setting, and participants: Eligible patients had clinical

New technology is always coming and with that comes changes. The technology has made it easier to fulfil each customer's demand. The customer has today much more different products to choose between and the stores have problems to get the right product to the right place at the right time. It is hard for the supply chain to forecast what the customer is going to buy the next day, especially if

When a person becomes a patient in the Auckland City Hospital, the largest public hospital in New Zealand, they often bring one or more family members with them for mental and physical support. This thesis focuses on these support persons, who in this thesis are referred to as the patient caregivers and their perspectives on staying at Te Whare Awhina (TWA). TWA is an accommodation provider run un

Popular Abstract in Swedish I Sverige bryter drygt 30 000 föräldrapar årligen upp från sin relation. Tillsammans har dessa föräldrar cirka 55 000 barn. I samband med föräldrarnas separation skall frågor om de gemensamma barnens vårdnad, boende och umgänge lösas. De flesta föräldrar klarar detta på egen hand eller med stöd av samarbetssamtal eller familjerådgivning, men ungefär 10% av de separerandThe purpose of this socio-legal dissertation is to examine the role of the district court in the handling of custody disputes, from the standpoint of the child's best interest. More specifically, the focus is partly on the relationship between the family and society during district court proceedings, and partly on the relationship between civil law and public law procedure that is to say between t

System Thinking is the mindset of defining and confining a problem and its symptoms as well as a method for communicating system understanding. System Analysis is taking that problem apart to understand its causalities and structural arrangement. System Dynamics is the use of the results of System Analysis in order to reconstruct the system of causalities. Modelling is used for understanding comp

Contamination of soil and water by heavy metal ions (HMs) is a problem all over the world.The use of biological methods alone or in combination with other techniques for treatment of such polluted sites constitutes a major challenge. The present thesis summarizes work based on four basic technologies: 1) use of Sulphate Reducing Bacteria (SRBs) for production of hydrogen sulphide which is used to

Currently, we are experiencing biodiversity loss on different spatial scales. One of the best studied taxonomic groups in decline is the butterflies. Here, we review evidence for such declines using five systematic studies from southern Sweden that compare old butterfly surveys with the current situation. Additionally, we provide data on butterfly and burnet moth extinctions in the region’s counti

Background: Albumin may be beneficial in patients with septic shock but availability is limited and cost is high. The objective of the present study was to investigate if the use of dextran-70 in addition to albumin and crystalloids influences organ failure or mortality in patients with severe sepsis or septic shock. Methods: Patients with severe sepsis or septic shock (n = 778) admitted to a univ

Purpose: The frst main aim of this study was to illustrate the absorbed dose rate distribution from 177Lu in sections of xenografted prostate cancer (PCa) tumors using high resolution digital autoradiography (DAR) and compare it with hypothetical identical radioactivity distributions of 90Y or 7 MeV alpha-particles. Three dosimetry models based on either dose point kernels or Monte Carlo simulatio

BACKGROUND: Discharge summary with medication report effectively counteracts drug-related problems among elderly patients due to insufficient information transfer in care transitions. However, this requires optimal transfer and use of the discharge summaries. This study aimed to examine information transfer with discharge summaries from hospital to primary care.METHODS: A descriptive study with da

BACKGROUND: The optimal advanced heart failure (HF) therapy strategy for patients aged 60 or older with end-stage HF refractory to optimal medical therapy remains uncertain. This study compares outcomes of three advanced HF therapy strategies in this patient population. METHODS: A single-center retrospective study was conducted in 95 patients aged 60-73 years who had undergone isolated heart trans

Background: The aim was to evaluate what can be learned from rat models when treating patients suffering from a sciatic nerve injury.Methods: Two patients with traumatic sciatic nerve injury are presented with examination of motor and sensory function with a five-year follow-up. Reconstruction of the nerve injury was performed on the second and third day, respectively, after injury using sural ner

Omstridda sexuella representationer har länge varit en konfliktyta i en västerländsk kontext. Vissa av dessa representationer har snabbt avfärdats som obscena, pornografiska, smutsiga, värdelösa eller ointressanta, medan andra har utmanat etablerade kategoriseringar och blivit föremål för intensiv debatt. För att undersöka och förstå de skriftliga sexuella representationernas historia i en svensk Transgressive sexual representations have long been a point of contention in Western societies. While some representations are easily disregarded as obscene, pornographic, smut, worthless or uninteresting, others disrupt established categorizations and are subject to heated debates. To map and understand the history of written, sexual representations in a Swedish context, I use the literature/porn
