I Alternativa övningsmetoder för musiker – del 1 presenteras olika sätt på vilka musikaliska färdigheter kan övas genom mentalisering och andra alternativa övningsmetoder som inte inkluderar användande av musikernas huvudinstrument. Den visar också hur dessa metoder kan kombineras. Här beskrivs även hur och varför dessa arbetssätt fungerar för musikalisk instudering individuellt och i en duo samt Alternative Methods of Practising Music – A study of practising without one’s main instrument for single musicians and small ensembles – Part 1 presents different ways in which musical skills can be practised through imagery and other alternative methods of practising that do not involve the use of the musicians’ main instruments. It also shows how these methods may be combined. Furthermore, it de

Det finns ingen internationellt accepterad definition av terrorism. I korthet definieras terrorism i svensk rätt som vissa typer av brott som allvarligt kan skada en stat eller mellanstatlig organisation och som begås med intention att injaga allvarlig fruktan, otillbörligen tvinga eller allvarligt destabilisera eller förstöra. Uppsatsen behandlar Lag (2002:444) om straff för finansiering av särskThere is no internationally accepted definition of terrorism. In short, the Swedish legislation defines terrorism as certain types of crimes that could severely harm the state or an international organisation and which is committed with a certain intention to intimidate, compel, destabilise or demolish. This essay analyses two of the laws that the Swedish counter-terrorism legislation consists of.

With the large amount of surveillance cameras in our public spaces there has been much discussion about their effects on privacy. Axis communications has an algorithm that tries to remedy this by making it hard to see who is in an image but still have it possible for a neural network to detect that there is a person present. This thesis explores how this algorithm needs to be adapted to be implem

At Haväng in eastern Scania, South Sweden, an underwater landscape occurs on the seabed. The landscape consists of deep-rooted pines standing in organic deposits. Due to sea level changes, the area was exposed during two phases (11,700 to 10,700 and 10,000 to 8,500 years ago) so that pines could live there, to subsequently drown and end up submerged. This study aims to show how the Baltic Sea form

Uppsatsen behandlar det adopterade barnets ställning inom adoptionsinstitutet genom dess förändring över tid. Adoptionsinstitutet har förändrats i takt med samhällsutvecklingen och lagstiftaren har tidvis försökt lösa samhällsproblem med hjälp av lagstiftningen. Uppsatsens syfte är att undersöka hur barnets ställning har förändrats tillsammans med adoptionslagstiftningen. Adoption som ett institThis thesis examines an adopted child’s status within the adoption institute through time. The adoption institute has changed in line with the development of society and the legislator have occasionally tried to solve problems occurring in the society with the help of legislation. The child’s status is dependent on society’s perception of children and the reign values in the general public. The

Furthermore, the study aims to explore the dynamics o

Tonkilometermetoden används för beräkning av andelstal för enskilda vägar som är gemensamhetsanläggningar. Den trafikmängd som olika fastighetstyper genererar återspeglas i vissa framtagna schablonvärden. Eftersom det saknas framtagna schablonvärden för specialfastigheter såsom vindkraftverk och vattenkraftverk har jag genom detta examensarbete undersökt möjligheten att ta fram schablonvärden för

The Antequera Basin of 150 km2 is a sub-basin to Lake Poopó, located at an altitude of 3800 meters above sea level on the Bolivian high plateau. Lake Poopó is a terminal lake with high salinity and heavy pollution from centuries of extensive mining activity. The climate is semiarid-cold with an average precipitation of 450 mm/year and potential evaporation of 1700 mm/year. Almost all rain falls du

Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: Examensarbetet syftar till att undersöka vegetationens utveckling och historia i området kring Skäralid, på Söderåsen i Skåne. Av särskilt intresse är när boken (Fagus sylvatica) invandrade i området och när den blev dominerande i skogen. Under hösten år 2000 kommer Naturvårdsverket här att inrätta Sveriges 27:e nationalpark: Söderåsens nationalpark. NationalparThe beech forest of the Söderåsen ridge in Skåne, southern Sweden, is one of the largest areas dominated by beech (Fagus sylvatica) in northern Europe, and during the year 2000 the southeastern part of Söderåsen will become the 27th national park of Sweden. Pollen analysis has been carried out on two peat cores collected from small peatlands situated on the plateaus surrounding the Skäralid canyon

Our interviewees consisted of four probation inspectors from the probation service and three social secretaries from the social services, all within the investigation unit. The participation of the interviewees has contributed to knowledge within the research area.

Due to climate change, cities are increasingly facing the situation of being exposed to more frequent and prolonged extreme weather events in the future, such as heat and droughts, which are exacerbated by urban heat island (UHI) effects. The implementation of green infrastructure (GI) in the form of trees is seen as a possible adaptation measure to regulate the microclimate. However, there is an

Många gamla industri- och hamnområden, som tidigare låg utanför centrum, har idag växt ihop med stadskärnan. Det har därför blivit allt vanligare att städer utvecklar dessa områden till att bli nya levande stadsdelar. På grund av att jordens befolkning ökar, och att en allt större del av befolkningen väljer att bosätta sig i städer, finns det också ett behov av nya platser att förtäta och utvecklaMany old industrial and port areas that were previously located outside of the city centre, have now become a part of the city centre, due to the expansion of the city. Therefore, it is more and more common for cities to develop these areas into new vibrant neighbourhoods. Because of the earth’s increasing population, and the fact that a larger part of the population chooses to settle in cities, t

Background: Artificial intelligence (AI) systems can potentially aid the diagnostic pathway of prostate cancer by alleviating the increasing workload, preventing overdiagnosis, and reducing the dependence on experienced radiologists. We aimed to investigate the performance of AI systems at detecting clinically significant prostate cancer on MRI in comparison with radiologists using the Prostate Im

The Siljan-Orsasjön Basin in south-central Sweden hosts two prominent lakes. A 100 m deep channel extends approximately 52 km across the basin but does not form a continuous connection between the lakes today. Geophysical mapping, including multibeam bathymetry and sub-bottom profiling, revealed several landslide areas associated with the steep slopes of this channel and redistributed mass-wasted

Metal–organic frameworks such as ZIF-8, grown in situ on nanocellulose (NC), have gained significant attention in recent years due to the versatility of the processing route and multifaceted application in the field of environmental remediation and biomedical applications. However, insights into the interactions between NC and MOF precursors and MOF structure evolution during in situ synthesis are

Atmospheric measurements of the short-lived radioactive noble gas radon-222 (222Rn) have many applications. Its concentrations are driven by atmospheric mixing as well as seasonal variations, which follow the seasonality of 222Rn exhalation from continental soils, with lower values during the wet winter and spring months compared to more dry summer conditions. Hence, it can be used as a tracer to

Hyperinsulinemia is an adaptive mechanism that enables the maintenance of normoglycemia in the presence of insulin resistance. We assessed whether glucagon is also involved in the adaptation to insulin resistance. A total of 1,437 individuals underwent an oral glucose tolerance test with measurements of circulating glucose, insulin, and glucagon concentrations at 0, 30 and 120 min. Early glucagon

Plants emit large quantities of isoprene and monoterpenes, the main components of global biogenic volatile organic compound (BVOC) emissions. BVOCs have an important impact on the atmospheric composition of methane, and of short-lived radiative forcing agents (e.g. ozone, aerosols etc.). It is therefore necessary to know how isoprene and monoterpene emissions have changed over the past and how fut

BACKGROUND: Most cardioplegic solutions have been developed using the classic Langendorf heart perfusion model, which only allows a short experimental follow-up. Our aim was to investigate hearts after prolonged storage by using a physiologic model including prolonged perfusion with normal, fresh blood. METHODS: Sixteen hearts from 60-kg pigs were preserved with dextran-enriched (dextran-40, 35 g/
