Forests are key components of European multifunctional landscapes and supply numerous forest ecosystem services (FES) fundamental to human well-being. The sustainable provision of FES has the potential to provide responses to major societal challenges, such as climate change, biodiversity loss, or rural development. To identify suitable strategies for the future sustenance of FES, we performed a s
Background: Involving service users in inpatient care and recovery planning has gained interest worldwide. Our purpose was to evaluate the process of implementation of a coproduced Recovery Guide (RG) intervention in 22 inpatient wards in Sweden, in terms of context, implementation process and mechanisms of impact over 12 months.Methods: A mixed method design and a process evaluation framework wer
In this thesis, we address three main security problems related to cryptography andcloud storage. To tackle the challenge posed by a quantum computer, we needencryption that is resistant to quantum computers. This category of cryptographyis called post-quantum cryptography. In the first paper, we solve a challengein one of the lattice-based cryptographic protocols called Nth-degree Truncatedpolyno
Introduction: Prostate cancer (PCa) is the most common type of cancer in males, and the metastatic form is a leading cause of death worldwide. There are currently no curative treatments for this subset of patients. To decrease the mortality of this disease, greater focus must be placed on developing therapeutics to reduce metastatic spread. We focus on dissemination to the bone since this is both
Titanium alloys are known for being difficult to machine. Within the groups of Ti alloys, the machinability is reduced when going from the α-alloys, to α + β, and finally to near-β or β-alloys. Uncoated cemented carbide is traditionally used for machining these alloys and finding a suitable coating to improve the performance is a challenge due to the high strength of Ti alloys and the high chemica
Cushioned lipid bilayers are structures consisting of a lipid bilayer supported on a solid substrate with an intervening layer of soft material. They offer possibilities for studying the behavior and interactions of biological membranes more accurately under physiological conditions. In this work, we continue our studies of cushion formation induced by histatin 5 (24Hst5), focusing on the effect o
Lagen (1988:688) om kontaktförbud har varit föremål för ökad medial uppmärksamhet under senare tid. Bland annat har nyhetstidningar rapporterat om våldshändelser med dödlig utgång, som ofta avser en kvinna som fallit offer för en närstående mans våldsutövning, där det i grunden har funnits ett beviljat (eller obeviljat) kontaktförbud. En hel del kritik har riktats mot lagen, främst från representaThe contact prohibition act (1988:688), or restraining order (RO), has received increased attention in the media lately. Newspapers have occasionally reported incidents with deadly violence, usually concerning a female victim to violence performed by a male who is in close relationship to the victim (intimate partner violence, IPV), where there existed a granted (or not granted) RO. The regulation
Integration of machine operators in nature conservation – A demand for education In Swedish forestry there are several educational programs that provides certificates in nature conservation and environmental considerations for machine operators (Blue & Green). The certificates are optional, but if a machine operator intends to work in licensed forests with a higher nature consideration, the c
Lagen om anställningsskydd infördes år 1974 för att trygga anställningen för alla enskilda arbetstagare på den svenska arbetsmarknaden. Tidigare hade arbetstagarnas rättigheter reglerats i kollektivavtal och endast vissa arbetstagares rättigheter var reglerade i lag. Några regler som infördes i 1974 års lag var bland annat saklig grund för uppsägning enigt 7 § LAS. För att saklig grund skulle anseThe Employment Protection Act from 1974 was implemented in to Swedish law as a way to secure the employments of the employees. Before the implementation of the Act, the rights of the employees were regulated in collective agreements. By then there were only some rights regulated in the law. Some of the regulations that were implemented in to the Employment Protection Act was the 7§. The 7 § states
I arbetet har en rättsdogmatisk metod använts i kombination med rättshistoriska och kriminalrättsliga perspektiv för att undersöka vilken självbestämmanderätt individen har i förhållande till sin egen död. Rättsläget i Nederländerna har studerats, men fokus har legat på att svensk rätt och att utreda vad som är tillåtet och otillåtet rörande dödshjälp i Sverige. Rätten till liv stadgas i artikel 2This thesis contains an examination of the individuals’ right to self-determination in relation to their own death. The approach has been a traditional judicial method, with additions of historical perspectives as well as principles of criminal law. The situation in the Netherlands has been examined, but Swedish law will be described more in detail concerning what is permitted and what is prohibit
Present master thesis investigates the role of 4 chosen place-based educational initiatives in Austria which are actively engaged in local short food supply chains (SFSCs). Those supply chains are defined by close geographical and social relations between supply chain actors and a limited number of intermediaries. It aims to scrutinize to what extend such initiatives (can) foster consumer-producer
Investigating the influence of the tidal regime on harbour porpoise Phocoena phocoena distribution in Mount’s Bay, Cornwall Abstract Unintentional by-catch in fishing gear is a significant cause of mortality of harbour porpoises in UK waters. Understanding the spatial distribution of harbour porpoises at fine scales and how this changes over time is essential when trying to understand where thes
De samhälleliga förhållandena för personer med intellektuell funktionsnedsättning har under det senaste seklet utvecklats dramatiskt. Det förhållningssätt som under tidigare delen av 1900-talet ledde till institutionalisering och sterilisering har numera ersatts av ett förhållningssätt som i större utsträckning utgår från humanitet och ett bejakande av mänskliga rättigheter. Det moderna synsättet The societal conditions for individuals with intellectual disabilities have evolved dramatically over the past century. The approach that during the earlier parts of the 20th century led to practices such as institutionalization and sterilization has by now been replaced by an approach that to a higher extent is based upon the affirmation of basic human rights. This shift in approach has resulted
When The Swedish Democrats entered The Swedish parliament in 2010 they were met with both political and policy isolation from the established political parties including the Moderates, the largest mainstream right wing party. However, after the general election of 2022 The Swedish Democrats were invited to become a junior coalition partner following the trend of other European countries of mainstr
Den svenska medgärningsläran, hur situationer där personer än en ska ses som gärningsmän, inte reglerad i lag utan är av lagstiftaren överlämnat till rättstillämparen. I gärningsbeskrivningar uttrycks medgärningsmannaskap som att de tilltalade har agerat ”tillsammans och i samförstånd”. Medgär-ningsläran har kritiserats från ett rättssäkerhetsperspektiv. Kritiken har rört frågor som det svaga och The Swedish doctrine of co-perpetratorship, which explains when perpetrators should be considered to commit crime together, is not regulated in law but have by the legislator been delegated to the courts. In statements of the criminal act charged, co-perpetratorship is expressed as the defendants have acted “together and in concert”. The doctrine has been criticized from a perspective of the rule
Syftet med detta examensarbete har varit att undersöka täckningsprincipen i svensk rätt, med ett särskilt fokus på dess tillämpning när ansvar för medhjälp aktualiseras. Målet har varit att försöka utreda dels vilka krav gällande rätt uppställer vid uppsåtstäckningen vid medhjälp och dels bidra med ett normativt perspektiv genom att granska gällande rätt ur ett konformitets- och skuldperspektiv.

Today’s market for gas turbines is very competitive and it is important to constantly improve the performance of the engines. It is commonly known that gas turbines have better performance at low ambient temperatures than at high ambient temperatures. One way to counteract the negative influence of a high ambient temperature is to use variable compressor guide vanes. The aim of this thesis is to e

In Sweden the installed wind power has increased rapidly in recent years and the trend looks to continue. New law, in which Svenska Kraftnät will lend investment capital for expansion of grid capacity to renewable energy, will facilitate the connection of wind power plants to E.ON’s regional grid network. With more wind power connected to the grid network losses will look different.In this report,
