Hyperresponsiveness and inflammation are major pathophysiological features of both allergic rhinitis and asthma. The mechanisms behind these are not fully understood. The aims of this thesis were to investigate if cytokines involved in the allergic response can induce airway hyperreactivity by affecting the airway smooth muscle directly and to identify novel mediators involved in allergic airway i
After reviewing basic concepts and tools in order to quantify entanglement, a theoretical set up is proposed, which is based on the double slit experiment and the Mach-Zehnder interferometer. A particle, which is in a superposition of two paths, can interfere with a qubit on each path before it is scattered by a beam splitter and measured by two separate detectors. After a detailed investigation,
Rapporten undersöker begreppet gemensamma servitut. Det övergripande målet är att upplysa om de gemensamma servitutens existens och klargöra under vilka premisser de får och kan bildas. Viktiga frågeställningar blir: vad de är, hur de går att bilda, hur de registreras och hur vanligt förekommande de är. Gemensamma servitut omfattas av samma förvaltningsregler som gemensamhetsanläggningar. En fråga
Denna uppsats behandlar ungdomsrabatten i 29 kap. 7 § brottsbalken (1962:700). Ungdomsrabatten är en reduktion som särbehandlar unga lagöverträdare i åldrarna 15–20 år vid straffmätningen. Den unge lagöverträdaren får ett avdrag på straffet baserat på dennes ålder vid gärningstillfället. Ungdomsrabatten är sedan länge en rättstradition i Sverige, men den har under lång tid kritiserats. På senare åThis thesis addresses the reduced sentence for juveniles in Chapter 29 Section 7 of the Swedish Penal Code (1962:700). The reduced sentence for juveniles is a reduction which targets young offenders aged 15–20 years when meting out of punishment. The young offender receives a reduction of the punishment based on the age of the criminal offender at the time of the crime. The reduced sentence for ju
I rättegångsbalken finns den fria bevisprövningen stadgad. Princip innebär att all bevisning som parterna kan få fram är som utgångspunkt tillåtlig och värdet av den bevisningen får prövas fritt. Att bevisprövningen ska vara fri innebär att domstolen inte är bunden av några legala regler eller normer. Högsta domstolen har emellertid utvecklat en bevisprövningsmetod som vuxit fram och tillämpas allIn the Code of Judicial Procedure, the free examination of evidence is stipulated as a principle where all evidence that the parties can obtain is permissible and the value of that evidence is examined freely. The fact that the examination of evidence must be free means that the court is not bound by any legal rules or norms. However, the Supreme Court has developed a method of reviewing evidence

Through the implementation of a CBA on HSR in Sweden and a discussion of CBA’s role in large infrastructure investments in the public sector, better insight
Att näringsidkare behandlar enskilda individers personuppgifter till ändamål för att individanpassa marknadsföring genom elektronisk väg får anses vara vanligt i dagens digitaliserade samhälle. Personuppgifter har fått ett eget kommersiellt värde och kan ses som en tillgång som bland annat genererar intäkter och konkurrensfördelar. Det är dock viktigt att individer får det skydd som krävs för att Personal data has an inherent commercial value and can be seen as an asset that generates revenue and competitive advantages. It is important that individuals receive the necessary protection for their personal data so that it is not used or processed in ways that are not legally compatible. The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) creates protection for individuals by informing organizations
Världen är i ständig miljö- och hälsofrämjande utveckling, där ny forskning och upptäckter hela tiden driver marknadskrav och bidrar till restriktioner. Plastindustrin har länge varit under luppen, till stor del för fossila råvaror och nedskräpning, men även då vissa plastmaterial innehåller ifrågasatta tillsatser. Flexibel Polyvinylklorid (PVC) är en typ av plast som används mycket i dagens samhFlexible Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) is a plastic material commonly used in today’s society and a fundamental material for a lot of sectors. It has advantages over other polymers such as energy-efficient production, flame retardancy, durability and cost-effective. The one important component in flexible PVC that gives it is flexible properties is the plasticizer. The most common plasticizers used are
This thesis investigates Automatic Text Summarization and how it can be used to generate summaries of patent documents. The purpose of the generated summary was to convey the patent document’s subject so that the reader could decide whether the patent document is relevant and should be read in full or could be discarded. This, in order to reduce the time patent attorneys need to spend reading full
Galaktisk arkeologi kallas det forskningsfältet inom astronomin som undersöker Vintergatans historia i termer av stjärnors kemi, ålder, utveckling, och inte minst deras kinematik. Vintergatan började som ett band av dimma över natthimlen innan människan förstod att det var våran egen Galax, som vi själva satt inuti. Sedan dess har vi försökt förstå allt vi kan om Vintergatan. Galaktisk arkeologi äThe purpose of Galactic archaeology is determining the history of the Milky Way (MW) Galaxy. To do this one uses observational data from stellar populations in terms of properties such as kinematics, chemistry, ages, and evolution. In this context a population means stars with similar characteristics and the most notable population is “the Solar Neighbourhood” (SN). Stars orbit with a ‘guiding rad
Mounting cameras on motorized objects has become possible in greater extent due to the emerging camera technology during the past few decades. This application could prove useful in several areas such as search and rescue operations, surveillance or even news monitoring. One hardship that this brings is the difficulty of keeping the camera unit stable while its setting is not. In the situations me
The main purpose of this study is to assess the impact of environmental conditions on paper-based flexible laminates tendency to curl. Any deviation in flatness may indeed affect materials processability. Two different paper-based flexible laminates are considered: a widely processed heat-sealable yogurt lid (paper / metallized polyethylene terephthalate / heat-sealing lacquer) and a prototype lam
People who make models as their hobbies at home often generate more trash clutters than others. Once they start the modeling process, they often end up having small debris, sanding dust, and spilled paints on their desks. These tiny clutters will reduce their concentration and enthusiasm for the model-building process. It is quite difficult to collect them and get rid of them. Therefore, I design
Soundcloud is the worlds third largest streaming platform for music. Despite this, the website is riddled with spam comments that disturb user experience. This spam diers much in format and content from the email spam that we are used to seeing, and that most classic spam lters have been developed to detect. On soundcloud, 90% of spam comments are written by users wanting to self-promote their own
Den rättsliga strukturen som ett aktiebolag är uppbyggd efter består av flera regelsystem. Dessa regelsystem återfinns i aktiebolagslagen och har olika syften. Ett av dessa regelsystem som vi här kallar låneförbudet eller låneförbudsreglerna syftar till att skydda aktiebolagets egna kapital. Låneförbudsreglerna innebär i korthet att man begränsar bolagets lånerätt till fysiska- eller juridiska perThe legal structure that forms the basis of a limited company is made up of several regulatory systems. These regulatory systems are contained in the Swedish Companies Act and have different purposes. One of these systems known as “prohibited loan” or “rules regarding prohibited loans” is aimed at protecting the company's equity capital. These rules basically limit the company's lending ri
Following changes on a European level, there are plans to also in Sweden reduce the characteristic value of shear strength of glued-laminated timber. In Sweden, a decrease of approximately 30% from a characteristic value of 4.0 MPa (for glulam L40) to 2.5 or 3.0 MPa is planned. This would mean that wood would lose competitiveness against other construction materials such as steel and concrete. T
A leidenfrost droplet forms when a liquid droplet is placed on a very hot surface. In the case that there is a thin layer of insulating material as a step on the substrate, under specific conditions Leidenfrost droplets interact with the edge of the step. The result of this interaction is sometimes lateral detachment or jumping from the surface. Specically, the best jumping can be observed when li
Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: Rapakivigraniter är en speciell typ av graniter som uppträder minst hundra miljoner år efter det att orogena jordskorpebildande processer i det aktuella området har avslutats. De definierades först av finska geologer. Flera massiv har identifierats i Sverige och nu är rapakivigraniter kända från alla kontinenter. Märkligt är att de flesta har bildats under en beThe three principal mafic minerals, augite, ferro-edenite and ferrohornblende, show a progressive chemical evolution during the crystallisation of the Nordingrå rapakivi granite magma. Some crystals of augite have reacted with the liquid forming ferroedenite. Some ferroedenite is in turn altered into ferrohornblende. This order of mineral evolution has been determined from observations under the p
Lake sediments have lately been explored as a 10Be archive, complementing previous research on ice cores and marine sediments. 10Be is an important proxy as it can be used to study past solar activity, a factor which affects the climate. Where other methods studying solar activity only cover a brief period of history, 10Be has the potential to go further back in time. The concentrations of 10Be st
