The aim of this study is to understand how urban design can be used in order to integrate and create conditions for sustainable mobility. This is done at both national and municipal level by choosing two municipalities, Malmö and Linköping municipality. The methods used are document analysis and interviews with employees at each municipality. The analysis is done according to the theoretical frame
Syfte: Studien undersöker om det på ett reliabelt sätt går att använda en modifierad version av Pati-ent Attachment to Therapist Rating Scale (PAT-RS) för att skatta anknytningsmönster från patient till terapeut utifrån inspelade psykoterapisessioner från fjärde sessionen under en korttidsterapi. Metod: Två oberoende observatörer har skattat anknytningsmönster från patient till terapeut utifrån 30Objective: This thesis investigates if it is possible to use a modified version of Patient Attachment to Therapist Rating Scale (PAT-RS) estimating attachment style between patient and therapist dur- ing an early stage of short term psychotherapy in a reliable way using recorded psychotherapy ses- sions. Method: Recorded material from 30 psychotherapy sessions have been separately estimated by two
The field of radial turbines is wide and radial turbines of today find applications in areas as diverse as small gas turbines; turbochargers for cars, buses, and trucks, railway locomotives, and diesel power generators; cryogenic and process expanders; rocket engine turbopumps; and specialty steam turbines.

CYLD is a deubiquitination enzyme that regulates different cellular processes, such as cell proliferation and cell survival. Mutation and loss of heterozygosity of the CYLD gene causes development of cylindromatosis, a benign tumour originating from the skin. Our study shows that CYLD expression is dramatically downregulated in basal cell carcinoma (BCC), the most common cancer in humans. Reduced
Background: Trauma to the pancreas is rare but associated with significant morbidity. Currently available management guidelines are based on low-quality evidence and data on long-term outcomes is lacking. This study aimed to evaluate clinical characteristics and patient-reported long-term outcomes for pancreatic injury. Methods: A retrospective cohort study evaluating treatment for pancreatic inju
Concrete carbonation is a prevalent phenomenon that leads to steel reinforcement corrosion in reinforced concrete (RC) structures, thereby decreasing their service life as well as durability. The process of carbonation results in a lower pH level of concrete, resulting in an acidic environment with a pH value below 12. This acidic environment initiates and accelerates the corrosion of steel reinfo
Big Data has experienced recent developments in the field of Business Intelligence and has captured the increasing interest of enterprises who are trying to seize its potential. More and more companies, operating in industries ranging from insurance to the entertainment industry, are moving forward with the adoption of Big Data, in an attempt to gain significant benefits, such as customer insight,
Ocean acidification is a consequence of the anthropogenic release of carbon dioxide (CO2) to the atmosphere. When CO2 is dissolved in water it affects the composition of ions and lowers the pH of the water. As the partial CO2 pressure in the atmosphere increases a new balance is reached with the surface waters which causes the pH of the surface oceans to decrease. For small shallow seas this effec
In this thesis I study depictions of USA in works written by the two Swedish authors Anna Lenah Elgström (1884-1968) and Lars Gustafsson (1936- ). The purpose is to shed light on the expressions of modernity in crisis in their depictions of the USA. To fulfill this purpose I study the material from a phenomenological method approach combined with a theoretical focus. I find that they both give exp
Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: Det största oljefältet på land i nordvästra Europa, Schoonebeekfältet i Nederländerna har varit föremål för denna studie. Oljeproduktionen stoppades på grund av att vatten trängt in i oljereservoaren. När vatten under produktionen blandas med olja sker detta på grund av att den existerande flödesmodellen av reservoaren är felaktig. Detta innebar att det blev ekoThe Valanginian (Lower Cretaceous) Bentheim succession of the Schoonebeek field is deposited in a shallow-marine environment along the southern and southwestern coast of the Lower Saxony Basin in eastern Netherlands. Three cores from Schoonebeek field, selected by NAM (Nederlandse Aardolie Maatschappij), and a number of samples from an outcrop in the Bentheim Sandstone at Gildehaus were studied. I
In order to suggest improvements for the logistics of STARKA, we felt that we had to analyze all the activities which were related to STARKA's logistic processes. Our primary analysis consisted of a rough but comprehensive description of different functions in the company, and the relationship between them. This was performed by following a typical order through the company to see which functi
Mikrober finns överallt, runt omkring oss i vår miljö och inuti våra kroppar. De som lever tillsammans med djur har mycket stor påverkan på värdens hälsa och evolutionära fitness. Från ett djurs perspektiv är vissa mikrober goda, andra onda, och vissa har ingen större påverkan på hälsan, men egentligen beror dessa egenskaper på sammanhanget, eftersom det är vanligt att mikrober byter strategi tillThe microbes living inside hosts have highly important consequences for host health and fitness. From the host’s perspective, some microbes exhibit mutualistic tendencies, others parasitic, and some commensal, but this is context-dependent and opportunistic lifestyles are widespread in nature. Our knowledge of how hosts interact molecularly with different microbes is, however, poor, and little res
Flow injection analysis provides a convenient platform for the use of biosensors in the monitoring of bio-processes. A major requirement in bioprocess monitoring is real time information about various process parameters like concentration of products and substrates, flow rates, and injection volumes. Depending on the application, the monitoring requirements vary and this results in a need for diff
In the spring of 1945, survivors of the Nazi concentration camps arrived in southern Sweden. A project was launched to collect eye-witness accounts of their experiences and document them for posterity. The scholar in charge of this project was Sture Bolin, professor of history at Lund University After his death Erik Lonnroth hailed him as a 'world-famous' historian. By the turn of the century he w
Background: Improving maternal and reproductive health still remains a major challenge in most low-income countries especially in sub-Saharan Africa. The growing inequality in access to maternal health interventions is an issue of great concern. In Ghana, inadequate attention has been given to the inequality gap that exists amongst women when accessing antenatal care during pregnancy and skilled a
During the last several decades, improvements in diagnostic skills and in the treatment of children with cancer have substantially increased the number of long term survivors of childhood cancer. Treatment of children with cytostatic drugs is known to create a range of late adverse effects. Among these are damage to certain structures of the inner ear and hearing impairment. In children, a hearing
DescriptionThis thesis consists of two papers. The first gives a game-theoretical treatment of the institutional homogenization of value-oriented firms. It explains why intrinsically motivated, value-oriented firms like non-profits may become similar to for-profit firms in terms of organization and norms. It highlights and explains the pairs: value-oriented and flat organizations in contrast to va
This paper introduces the idea that location based pervasive games can be used to make mobility training for visually impaired children more fun. The user centred development process which has been carried out in collaboration with both visually impaired children and rehabilitation staff is described and we present a novel game concept which combines locative play, sound traces and a physical catc
