The kinetics and mechanism of the reactions between trans-[PtI3(PPh3)]– and trans-[PtI3(SbPh3)]– with pyridine, 2- and 4-methylpyridine in acetonitrile solvent have been studied by stopped-flow spectrophotometry. The crystal and molecular structures of the tetrabutylammonium salts of the two anions have been determined. Substitution of iodide trans to stibine is reversible and takes place via paraThe kinetics and mechanism of the reactions between trans-[PtI3(PPh3)]– and trans-[PtI3(SbPh3)]– with pyridine, 2- and 4-methylpyridine in acetonitrile solvent have been studied by stopped-flow spectrophotometry.

Abstract The water-scarcity diverts states to protect their national interests through engaging with hydro-politics and a noticeable strategy realized by capable states is hydro-hegemony. Although it is an effective response, hydro-hegemony entails unfair resource allocations and aggrieves the relatively weaker riparians. The purpose of this thesis is to illustrate the hydro-hegemony on a prominen

The overall aim of the current project is to investigate the possibility of using people's mobile phones to locate people in a tunnel environment, both during normal operation and during an emergency. As part of the project, a technology for locating people based on Wi-Fi communication between access points in a tunnel and the user's mobile phone is investigated. To examine the precision of the lo

Fraud is a crime that causes severe economic damage, and crime rates are rising because of technological advancements. There is a research gap regarding how fraud crime prevention is organised and which actors are important for it. This thesis aimed to explore how the rising occurrence of cyber fraud is addressed on a societal level, using the civil, banking, governmental, and business sectors. It

The objective of this thesis is to be used by rescue services in order to gain a deeper understanding regarding drowning and water rescue operations. By compiling research data from previous studies, statistics and opinions from rescue personal as well as experts in the field a basis is provided on which further queries within developing water rescue can be looked into for rescue services. Rescue

The sharing economy is currently widely discussed and politically of great importance, especially in urban areas. After a first rise in public interest due to a potential decrease of consumption, engaged actors are now calling for regulation mechanisms to defend the concept against the co-option by large incumbent firms, who transform the original idea into new economic opportunities. The accommod

Northern Ireland has long been a case that has interested researchers in different disciplines. Since the Brexit referendum in 2016, it has attracted attention as a politically rare case within the UK. Its land border with the Republic of Ireland and history of conflict results in unique consequences post-Brexit. Analyzing the impact of the British media in shaping the way Northern Ireland was con

There is a large interest in pre-Christian religion and ritual places in many disciplines; history of religions and archeology among others. These two disciplines have for a long time worked on different terms with the studies on this subject. Scholars of religion have used written sources from the Medieval Times to interpret the ritual sites and actions from pre-Christian times while archaeologis

Facing increasing pressure to decarbonize, innovation within the shipping sector has turned to low-and zero carbon solutions. In this paper we investigate how the development and implementation of biodiesel and liquefied biogas (LBG) in Norwegian coastal shipping has been influenced by the technological alignment with fossil fuels. We understand this influence to emanate from the (mis)match of bioFacing increasing pressure to decarbonize, innovation within the shipping sector has turned to low-and zero carbon solutions.

Sedentary behavior is defined as sitting or lying with low energy expenditure. Humans in industrialized societies spend an increasing amount of time in sedentary behaviors every day. This has been associated with detrimental health outcomes. Despite a growing interest in the health effects of sedentary behavior at work, associations remain unclear, plausibly due to poor and diverse methods for ass

The possibility to make environmental strategy a part of the core strategy through a framework called inside-out/outside-in was suggested by Porter in 2007. Researchers have also stated that the output of implementing a certain strategy ought to be valued during strategy planning. The two areas; environmental strategy and profitability analysis have although not frequently been combined, and thus

This thesis examines the emerging scene of ensemble playing in Swedish traditional music from the beginning of the 1980s until present day. It is focused around eight interviews with some of the most influential musicians on the scene. All of them are still active today both as performers and teachers. The theoretical framework is mainly based around two different standpoints; Narrative analysis a

Asbestos and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB) are hazardous substances that pose a risk to human health and the environment, and they are banned in Sweden. There is a large amount of older buildings that contain these substances and this causes a need for risk management. The responsibility for inventory and remediation lies on the property owner. Riskcommunication is an essential tool for encourag
