Korslimmat trä, KL-trä, är ett förhållandevis nytt byggnadsmaterial i byggbranschen. Det består av ett udda antal skikt av lameller av konstruktionsvirke, där varje skikt av lameller ligger roterade 90 grader i förhållande till intilliggande skikt. Materialet används både i den bärande stommen och som stomkomplettering i form av exempelvis trappor. Idag finns endast en etablerad tillverkare på dCross-laminated timber, CLT, is a rather new building material. It consists of an odd number of layers consisting of lumber boards stacked together, where each layer is rotated 90 degrees in comparison to the adjacent layers. The material is used both as a load-carrying element as well as a non-load-carrying element, such as stairs. Today there is only one established producer of CLT in Sweden. D

Plastic has been a revolutionary material in human history. Plastic materials have several desirable properties, such as durability, low production costs, and versatility. This helps explain the increase in their use and production over the past 100 years. Plastics are synthetic polymers, with long repeating chains of monomers; this creates structures that are chemically stable and durable. The ov

The synthesis of small organic molecules in the pharmaceutical industry necessitates efficiency and selectivity. For obtaining selectivity in C(sp2)-H functionalization, thianthrenation has emerged as a promising method for furnishing electrophilic substrates, with thianthrene acting as a linchpin that facilitates selective functionalization through subsequent displacement reactions. This thesis u

År 2009 bedömdes det att cirka 70 000 unga mäns och kvinnors val när det gällde äktenskap och val av partner i Sverige var begränsat eller villkorat. Regeringen konstaterade att lagstiftningen inte på ett effektivt sätt motverkade förekomsten av tvångs- och barnäktenskap och lade därför fram förslag till civilrättsliga och straffrättsliga lagändringar. Lagändringarna trädde i kraft den 1 juli 2014In 2009, it was estimated that around 70 000 young men’s and women’s choice when it came to marriage and choice of partner in Sweden was limited or conditional. The Government concluded that the legislation did not effectively fight the occurrence of forced marriage and child marriage, and therefore presented a proposition for civil and criminal law changes. The law changes came into force July 1s

Vid ett klyvningsförfarande är tanken att all ingående mark ska värderas i någon omfattning för att sedan fördelas mellan delägarna enligt deras respektive andel. Det har observerats exempel på värderingar som inte alltid gjorts enligt lag med en graderingsvärdering, det vill säga en värdering med mark i obebyggt skick och skog av normal karaktär, utan att denna istället gjorts efter en likvidvärdDuring a property partition the idea is that all land should be appraised to some extent, so that it can later be distributed among the co-owners according to their respective share. In a few examples of appraisals used by the National Land Survey there has been signs of irregularities in the application of grading appraisals. In some of these cases land has been appraised including buildings and

Crowdfunding has witnessed growing interest within academia in recent years, despite the underlying motivations for entrepreneur engagement in crowdfunding activities receiving little attention. The purpose of this study is to explore the motives that influence entrepreneurs when using crowdfunding and how these motives are related to each other. This will then provide a deeper understanding of ho

In this thesis an optimization of a previously performed inclusive search for beyond Standard Model Physics in same-sign di-lepton final states is performed, but tuned for a doubly-charged Higgs boson decaying to same-sign di-muons. The doubly-charged Higgs boson is a proposed fundamental particle whose existence would provide evidence for theoretical extensions of the Standard Model (SM) of parti

The purpose of this thesis is to investigate whether placement, using a special display, of ecological products, will have an effect on consumer buying behaviour and thereby sales of these products. When talking about sales we refer to the amount of ecological products that are being bought, habitual and unplanned, as a response due to the placement of the products in-store. To further elucidate t

Shikimic acid is one of several industrially interesting chiral starting materials formed in the aromatic amino acid pathway of plants and microorganisms. In this study, the physiology of a shikimic acid producing strain of Escherichia coli (derived from W31 10) deleted in aroL (shikimic acid kinase II gene), was compared to that of a corresponding control strain W31 10) under carbonand phosphate-

This study analyses the effects of thinning on stand transpiration in a typical mixed spruce and pine forest in the southern boreal zone. Studies of transpiration are important for models of water, energy and carbon exchange, and forest management, like thinning, would change those processes. Tree transpiration was measured by the tissue heat-balance sapflow technique, on a reference plot and a th

Background: A Western diet is associated with breast cancer risk. Objective: We investigated the relation of meat, egg, and dairy product consumption with breast cancer risk by using data from the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC). Design: Between 1992 and 2003, information on diet was collected from 319,826 women. Disease hazard ratios were estimated with multiva

Bevisfrågor har alltid varit av central betydelse i ett brottmål. Den tilltalades skuld avgörs utifrån den bevisning som läggs fram i rättegången. I Sverige tillämpas principen om fri bevisprövning. Principen inkluderar fri bevisföring vilket innebär att all bevisning som huvudregel är tillåten. Principen innefattar även fri bevisvärdering vilket innebär att domstolen som utgångspunkt inte har någQuestions regarding evidence have always been of importance in a criminal proceeding. The defendant's guilt is determined on the basis of the evidence presented at the trial. In Sweden, the principle of free examination of evidence is applied. The principle includes free presentation of evidence, which means that all evidence is generally allowed. The principle also includes free evaluation of

Den här uppsatsens syfte är att utreda hur migrationsdomstolarna i praktiken avgör huruvida asylsökande uppfyller kraven för att få uppehållstillstånd. Enligt svensk rätt ska varje person som känner välgrundad fruktan för förföljelse på grund av sin sexuella läggning få rätt till asyl. Det är dock den sökande som har bevisbördan för att göra sin flyktingstatus sannolik. I asylmål är ofta den sökanThe purpose of this essay is to investigate how the Migration Courts in practice determine whether an asylum seeker meet the criteria to receive asylum. Every person who feels well- founded fear of persecution due to their sexual orientation has a right to be granted asylum, according to Swedish law. It is however the asylum seeker who bears the burden of proof to make their right to refugee statu

Pritam Kumarsingh A Case Study to develop and test GIS/SDSS methods to assess the production capacity of a Cocoa Site in Trinidad and Tobago Trinidad and Tobago has achieved world-wide affirmation for its unique fine and flavour cocoa (Theobroma cacao). This classification of cocoa commands price premiums on the global market. However, the industry has declined over years. Investors and farmers

There is an ongoing discussion in information retrieval research regarding the merits of subject indexing with controlled vocabularies as opposed to relying on free-text descriptions. Earlier research has compared subject headings with other metadata, such as document titles or tables of contents, to determine the relative value of subject headings as subject access points in an information search

Stellar abundances are important for understanding the chemical evolution of galaxies and provide us with constraints on stellar evolution and supernova nucleosynthesis. To determine stellar abundances accurately, atomic data is crucial. This data is incomplete for many elements, especially in the infrared region. In particular, hyperfine structure (hfs) data in the near-infrared region is lacking

BIM, byggnadsinformationsmodellering, är ett arbetssätt som blir allt vanligare. Det innebär att olika objekt bygger upp en övergripande 3D-modell där man kan finna mängder av information om dessa objekt. Ett objekt kan vara allt ifrån en bropelare till en elstolpe. Syftet med denna rapport är att utifrån Trafikverkets roll som beställare undersöka vilka för- och nackdelar det skulle innebära med BIM, Building Information Modeling, is an increasingly common way of working. This means that different objects build up an overall 3D-model where you can find lots of information about these objects. An object can be anything from a bridge pillar to an electric pole. The purpose of this report is to, based on the Swedish Transport Administrations’ as a client, investigate the advantages and disad
