Föreliggande uppsats utreder förändringen från den 26 mars 2021 avseende den bredare tillämpningen av artikel 22 koncentrationsförordningen och undersöker de osäkerhetsmoment som därigenom uppstår för parter i företagsförvärv. Förändringen innebär ett tydligt avsteg från den Europeiska kommissionens väletablerade praxis i tillämpningen av bestämmelsen. Denna kursändring får som konsekvens att kritThe present thesis examines the changes from the 26th of March 2021 regarding the wider application of article 22 of the EC Merger Regulation, and examines the uncer-tainties that thereby arise for parties in certain mergers and acquisitions (M&A). The change constitutes a clear parting from the European Commission’s own, well-estab-lished practice regarding the application of the provision. T

This project is a study that has described what condition based maintenance is and has examined the possibilities with condition based maintenance on the new A26 submarine. It finishes with a detailed case study of how a condition based maintenance system could look like on the submarine’s diesel engines. Questions that have been answered are; what is condition based maintenance and how does it wo

Understanding catchment behaviour through rainfall-runoff models allows decision makers for proper planning and operation in context of flood risk management. However accurate rainfall-runoff and flood modelling at high spatio-temporal resolutions still remains a significant challenge in any hydrologic and hydraulic studies. This study seeks to develop Hydrologic Engineering Centre’s Hydrologic Mo

PURPOSE: We assessed the associations between population-based polygenic risk scores (PRS) for breast (BC) or epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) with cancer risks for BRCA1 and BRCA2 pathogenic variant carriers. METHODS: Retrospective cohort data on 18,935 BRCA1 and 12,339 BRCA2 female pathogenic variant carriers of European ancestry were available. Three versions of a 313 single-nucleotide polymorph

Dissolved organic carbon (DOC) loading is rarely estimated in tropical watersheds. This study quantifies DOC loading in the Rukarara River Watershed (RRW), a Rwandan tropical forest and agricultural watershed, and evaluates its relationship with hydrological factors, land use and land cover (LULC), and topography to better understand the impact of stream DOC export on watershed carbon budgets. The

The importance of terrestrial-derived organic matter for lake zooplankton communities remains debated, partly because little is known about the basic pathways by which allochthonous carbon is transferred to zooplankton, and whether these vary among the major taxonomic and functional groups. We quantified allochthony of three zooplankton groups (Cladocera, Calanoida, and Cyclopoida) across 18 lakes

The radioactive decay of ²³⁸U and ²³²Th has recently been used to determine ages for some of the oldest stars in the Universe. This has highlighted the need for accurate observational constraints on production models for the heaviest r-process elements which might serve as stable references, notably osmium and iridium. In order to provide a firmer basis for the observed abund

Background: Obstructed labour is still a major cause of maternal morbidity and mortality and of adverse outcome for newborns in low-income countries. The aim of this study was to investigate the role of individual and health facility factors and the risk for obstructed labour and its adverse outcomes in south-western Uganda. Methods: A review was performed on 12,463 obstetric records for the year

Reviewing the information systems (IS) literature shows the prevalence of studies claiming to exploit the grounded theory (GT) method. However, most of these studies follow an objectivist approach to GT. This manuscript addresses another recognized yet rarely used GT approach in IS: constructivist. The importance of IS constructivist research is briefly explained. This is followed with a recapitul

We propose a framework for calibration, positioningand tracking in a scene viewed by multiple cameras, througha flat refractive surface and one or several flat reflective walls.Refractions are explicitly modeled by Snell’s law and reflectionsare handled using virtual points. A novel bundle adjustmentframework is introduced for solving the nonlinear equationsof refractions and the linear equations
