Net CO2 emissions have been calculated for the production and transportation of biomass in Swedish agriculture and forestry, using fossil-fuel-based energy inputs. An analysis of how a transition from a fossil-fuel-based energy system to a CO2-neutral biomass-based system would affect the energy efficiency in biomass production and transportation, has also been carried out. Production and transpor
Popular Abstract in Swedish Alla har vi väl någon gång varit med om att datorer, dataprogram och datasystem inte fungerar som vi har tänkt oss. Inte sällan inträffar det fel och konstigheter som kan vara frustrerande och, i värsta fall, direkt farliga. Många gånger undrar man hur ett visst program eller system skall användas och hur de som har designat och byggt det har tänkt och resonerat. I stoThis work is about IT quality and systems developers' knowledge and view of it. IT quality is considered as the characteristics of a system or program that influence e.g. the experience of using it, the easiness to learn and understand it, how it could be customised according to new demands, and the possibility for those who have developed it to understand how it works and can be enhanced. There a
Sedan brottsbalkens tillkomst har det i svensk rätt varit oklart om personer som företar brottsliga gärningar under påverkan av tillfällig sinnesförvirring ska ådömas straffrättsligt ansvar eller inte. Någon sådan ursäktande omständighet finns inte lagstadgad, men i doktrin och förarbeten är en vanligt förekommande uppfattning att sådan regel ändå existerar – om än i oskriven form. Syftet med detSince the creation of The Penal Code it has in Swedish law been unclear whether individuals who undertake criminal acts under the influence of temporary insanity should be imposed criminal liability or not. Such an apologetic circumstance is not statutory; however in jurisprudential literature and preparatory works a widespread opinion is that such a rule still exists – albeit in unwritten form.
How can a small fire at a subcontractor in the USA lead to a multimillion dollar loss at a Swedish telephone company, and how can a single machine breakdown lead to a complete production stop at a production company? With today logistics and production trends, where terms such as Lean Production, Six Sigma, 5S, and World Class Manufacturing are used every day, production companies are introducing
Women are less represented on the Swedish scene of popular music than men are. This fact, off course, has many explanations. With case studies among highschool students this essay strive to point out how social practices and structures of power affect girls and boys as subjects exerting music, their approaches and their possibilities and limits of action. The analytical tools are a combination of
Bakgrund: UNFPA är en underorganisation till Förenta Nationerna (FN). UNFPA fokuserar på populations- och utvecklingsstrategier och jämlikhet mellan könen. I mars 2005 bestämdes det i UNDP/UNFPAs styrelse att UNFPAs inköpsavdelning (PSB) skulle behöva förbättras om de skulle nå upp till sina mål. Flera studier har genomförts och resultatet av dessa visade bland annat på en rekommendation att införBackground: UNFPA is a subsidiary organ to the United Nations (UN) with a primary focus on population and development strategies, sexual and reproductive health and gender equality. In March 2005 the UNDP/UNFPA Executive Board had realized that for the UNFPA Procurement Services Branch (PSB) to operate in line with its mission, focus would need to be directed specifically towards improvements in t
VI Delimitations The company has several product families but only one is investigated in this project. There are today two main warehouses at the production site, the warehouse for raw material and the one for finished goods, where only the latter was studied. There are other places within the company where capital could be tied up as well, e.g. when products are being processed in a machine, but
Syftet med förevarande uppsats är att belysa umgängessabotage och dess eventuella konsekvenser. Närmare bestämt avses att undersöka hur ett eventuellt umgängessabotage påverkar tingsrätten i sin bedömning när den har att ta ställning till vad som innebär barnets bästa (se föräldrabalken 6 kap. 2 a §). Umgängesrätten har utvecklats från att vara en rättighet avsedd för den förälder som utan grund hThe purpose of this essay is to highlight the consequences of the situation where one parent without acceptable cause refuses the other parent’s right of access with their child, hereinafter called ‘access sabotage’. The purpose is more specifically to investigate how the situation of access sabotage is affecting the district court in its assessment when it has to consider what outcome will be in
The view of FDI and its impacts has shifted throughout history. In conjunction with globalization and liberalization, new opportunities have emerged which have allowed FDI, in its current state to flourish across the globe. South-South FDI has emerged as a cross-border investment of developing and transitional economies to create lasting links with economies of similar structures. The purpose of t
Uppsatsen undersöker praxis som rör private enforcement (möjligheten till civilrättsligt skadestånd för en privat aktör för överträdelse av konkurrensrätten) i Sverige. Detta görs genom att studera de rättsfall som har hanterats av svenska domstolar, samt genom att se till de viktigaste rättsfallen inom EU-rätt. I en analys av detta ser man att området är outforskat i svensk praxis med få rättsfalThis essay studies case law regarding private enforcement (the possibility to seek repairs for damages caused by infringing on competition law) in Sweden. To do this, both national cases from Swedish courts and cases from the Court of Justice of the European Union has been studied. The result of the study is that Swedish case law is lacking cases, and that the subject is not well explored in Swede
Medverkan till brott enligt brottsbalken (1962:700), BrB, 23:4 är en vidsträckt brottsform inte enbart utifrån kriminaliseringens utsträckning över olika delikt, men även eftersom tröskeln för det otillåtna är tämligen låg. Att även de som avses skyddas av olika straffbud ibland medverkar till gärningsmannens gärning är därför inte särskilt konstigt. Samtidigt kan ofta antas att lagstiftaren inte Complicity in crime according to Chapter 23 Section 4 of The Penal Code (1962:700), BrB, is an extensive type of crime, not only due to complicity being criminalized for a substantive number of crimes, but also because the threshold for the unallowed is rather low. That those who are supposed to be protected by different penalty provisions sometimes formally participate in the perpetrator’s act, i
This study investigates ideas about masculinity in criminal gangs, and how these ideas affect disengagement from gangs. A major problem with criminal gangs is that since they are outside society’s laws and norms, it is difficult for the judiciary to counter them with law enforcement. It is not possible to change gang member’s behaviors solely with laws, which leaves the legal system with a blind s
Mesh networks are highly relevant and interesting today considering all the connected devices that exists. These devices often aim to have low power consumption to be able to be powered by smaller power sources such as solar cells or batteries. The hardware used by mesh networks often has the same purpose, to minimize power consumption. The purpose of this thesis is to provide an increased underst
Under predation risk, a trade-off between the need for safety and foraging opportunity occurs. Fish have been shown to adopt several behavioural strategies in order to reduce the risk of being attacked by a predator. In order to deeper investigate this phenomenon, in the present study common roach (Rutilus rutilus) behavioural personalities have been assessed under laboratory conditions and in the
The purpose of this study is to contribute to increased understanding and knowledge acquisition of the development of the Nordic defense cooperation, and in particular the deepening of cooperation between Sweden and Finland in recent years. The consequences after the end of the Cold War meant a time when the existential threats to the Nordic countries were low, following with the unwillingness of
Mäns våld mot kvinnor har på senare tid blivit ett alltmer erkänt samhällsproblem. En vanlig uppfattning är att våldet till största del utgörs av fysiska gärningar men ett psykiskt nedbrytande och kontrollerande beteende är dock mer vanligt förekommande. Tydligt är att mäns våld mot kvinnor till stor del grundas i den mellan könen existerande maktobalansen vilket är en viktig utgångspunkt i förståMen’s violence against women has in recent times become a more and more recognised social issue. It is a common misconception that the violence mainly consists of physical abuse, but psychological abuse in terms of controlling and degrading behaviour is somewhat more common. It is apparent gender structures serves as a base from which men’s violence against women can originate and grow. This is im
I Sverige, liksom i många andra rättsstater, finns regler om rättskraft. Till följd av dessa regler får ett avgjort mål inte tas upp till förnyad prövning, sedan målet slutligt avgjorts genom en lagakraftvunnen dom. Domstolarnas avgöranden ska därmed vara orubbliga och oföränderliga; ett synsätt som har sin grund i orubblighetsprincipen. I kontrast till orubblighetsprincipen står emellertid sanninIn Sweden, as in many other states governed by law, principles on legal force exist. As a result of these principles, an adjudicated case cannot be tried anew once the matter has been decided by a legally binding judgment. The rulings of the courts shall thus be firm and adamant; a rationale based on the principle of firmness. However, this contrasts with the principle of truth, which is based on
I september 2017 fick nazistiska Nordiska Motståndsrörelsen demonstrationstillstånd i Göteborg, vilket orsakade en stor debatt i Sverige. En liknande debatt väcktes i USA 1977 när en nazistisk grupp ansökte om att demonstrera. Händelserna väcker frågor; bör demonstrationsfriheten innefatta nazistiska demonstrationer? Vad är statens förhållningssätt till våldsamma motdemonstranter? Syftet med uppsaIn September 2017, the Nordic Resistance Movement received a permit to march through Gothenburg, which ignited a big debate in Sweden. A similar debate was had in 1977 in the United States (U.S.), when a neo-Nazi group applied for a permit to demonstrate. These events provoke questions; should the right to demonstrate include neo-Nazi groups? What should the state’s approach be to violent counter-
Psykiatriska tillstånd och psykiska besvär är vanligt förekommande hos ungdomar och vid bedömning av psykisk ohälsa har företrädesvis retrospektiv självskattning använts, som innehåller mätfel så som recall bias.
