Urban planners lack knowledge of how solar potential of buildings is affected by the decisions taken at an early design phase. Therefore, the solar potential metric SAFARn was analysed and the development of a tool for assessing the solar potential of buildings for integration of photovoltaic panels was studied in order to provide architects and urban planners with necessary information regarding
Eftersom stater i hög grad har misslyckats med att ta den globala uppvärmningen seriöst, har istället privata individer och miljöorganisationer konfronterat dem som bidrar till den. Genom att föra de som släpper ut växthusgaser inför rätta hoppas kärandena kunna stoppa den nuvarande kursen mot förödande klimatförändring. Klimattvister kan rikta sig mot både regeringar och företag, men i just tvistWhere states have failed to take the threat of global warming seriously, private individuals and environmental organizations have confronted those contributing to it. By bringing the emitters to court, litigants all over the world hope to put an end to the current trajectory towards dangerous climate change. Within the field of climate litigation, both governments and corporations are targeted. Th
Even though the eclectic paradigm was founded approximately 50 years ago, it remains among the leading frameworks for firms determining whether to engage in foreign direct investment (FDI). The framework asserts that multinational companies (MNCs) only will engage in FDI if they have ownership, location, and internalization advantages. There is currently a research gap pertaining to if there are a
Autonomous cars have the potential to revolutionize private transportation by allowing occupants to utilize their travel time for other activities. Considering the new opportunities for improved productivity, as well as the increasing demand for constant digital connectivity, reconnecting with nature will be crucial for alleviating cognitive stress and promoting healing and well-being. In this the
Plastic waste, especially from packaging, keeps increasing. As a consequence, harmful effects on animals and whole ecosystems as well as increasing greenhouse gas emissions can be seen. More sustainable materials are therefore needed, and dry thermopressed cellulose shows promising potential in replacing plastics in several packaging applications. Being a novel type of moulded pulp process, the re
Abstract This work is one of a series of related papers that were made in Lund University. They were done to analyze in a multi scalar way the Yttrium Orthosilicate crystals (YSO), analyzing the variation of material properties stemmed from the mounting, composition and other parameters in the optical properties of Yttrium Orthosilicate crystals. This paper specifically focused on investigating th
Mot bakgrund av de globala klimatambitionerna har den folkrättsliga traktaten Energistadgefördraget (ECT) kommit att ifrågasättas med ökande intensitet. I synnerhet anses Investor-State Dispute Settlement (ISDS) mekanismen i artikel 26 ECT inskränka staters rätt att lagstifta och därigenom bromsa utfasningen av fossila energislag (regulatory chill). En ISDS-mekanism är vanligt förekommande i gränAgainst the backdrop of global climate ambitions, the international treaty known as the Energy Charter Treaty (ECT) has come under increasing scrutiny. In particular, the Investor-State Dispute Settlement (ISDS) mechanism in Article 26 ECT is seen as restricting states' right to legislate and thereby slow-ing down the phasing out of fossil fuels (regulatory chill). ISDS is a common mechanism
In many parts of the world, people within the lgbtqi+ community are forced to leave their countries and flee to a new one. This is a consequence of legislation and societal norms that criminalize and expose the group to threats and violence. Because of this, individuals from all over the world seek rescue in Sweden and therefore apply for asylum based on gender identity and sexual orientation. The
Skiljeförfarandet utgör det enda alternativ till domstolsförfarande som också resulterar i en exigibel dom med rättskraft. Ett avtal om skiljeförfarande utgör ett hinder mot domstolsprövning om det åberopas inför domstol. Motsvarande prövningshinder gäller för skiljenämnd om en tvistefråga som anhängiggörs skiljenämnden faller utanför skiljeavtalets tillämpningsområde, eftersom skiljenämnden då inArbitration constitutes the only alternative to a judicial proceeding in court that also results in a legally binding judgement. An arbitration agreement also constitutes a procedural impediment if reference to it is made before the court. Corresponding procedural hindrance applies to an arbitration tribunal or to an arbitrator if the matter of dispute referred to arbitration lies outside the scop
The availability of a “male network” of family members and/or friends may be decisive for the outcome of a woman’s asylum application. As it is recognised under the jurisprudence of ECtHR and Swedish asylum adjudicators that women, who originates from countries where societal structures maintain women’s reliance on men, are particularly vulnerable. The Migration Agency, the Swedish decision-making
The effect of future changes in temperature and precipitation patterns on arctic ecosystem functioning is often assessed using state-of-the-art ecosystem models. Many models however lack detailed representation of wintertime processes, as pointed out by recent studies (Wang et al. 2016, Slater and Lawrence 2013). This bias may influence the derived outputs, such as soil temperature, permafrost ext
Det kan anses otillfredsställande att döma den som har haft en central och avgörande roll i brottet, även utan fysisk närvaro och fysiskt bidrag vid brottstillfället, som medverkande. Varken den svenska lagstiftaren eller rättspraxis har ställt upp tydliga kriterier för (med)gärningsmannaskap. I NJA 2006 s. 535 gjorde Högsta domstolen ett varsamt försök att uppställa vissa kriterier/utgångspunkterThe Swedish law has not set forth any evident and accurate criteria for (co-)perpetration. The minimum requirement for (co-)perpetration in Swedish law is support/encouragement and a decisive influence on the occurrence of the crime. Should the person who is the “mastermind” behind the crime but is not physically present or hasn’t physically contributed at the commission of the crime be regarded a
Preventing Cancer Cells from Proliferating On average an adult body consists of 37,2 trillion cells and if we were to thread them into a string, we could wrap it around earth almost 19 times! Each of our cells are programmed to fulfil a certain characteristic function at the correct location and at the correct time. This is all possible to the extremely controlled communication we have between ce
Centralt för uppsatsen är Leo-lagen som tillkom efter en företagsskandal på 1980-talet där ledande befattningshavare i AB Leo fått teckna aktier i bolaget till fördelaktiga villkor. Leo-lagen som nu återfinns i 16 kap. ABL stadgar att ett beslut om nyemission måste fattas av bolagsstämman med minst nio tiondelars majoritet om de som ska ha rätt att teckna aktier ingår i den av Leo-lagen utpekade fIn the centre of this paper is the 16 chapter of the Swedish Companies Act (Sw. aktiebolagslag (2005:551) (ABL)). The law was adopted after a big company scandal in Sweden during the 1980s where officials in the company where given shares at profitable terms. To prevent this scandal from occurring again the law states that a decision to issue new shares to officials has to be made at the annual sh
The global demand for fresh food has increased during the past five years and the demand is anticipated to continue growing in the future. The consumers' expectations are also getting higher and higher, which is why it is of great importance that the actors within the food industry meet these requirements to remain competitive. Fresh food is perishable goods which have a short shelf life. The
De första idéerna om hur planeterna i solsystemet bildades härstammar från den franske filosifen René Descartes på 1600-talet. Vad räknas solsystemet som - är denna teori bara kring planeterna eller hela solsystemet och dess komponenter?) Den teori som forskare tror på idag kan spåra sitt ursprung till mitten av 1700-talet, från den svenske forskaren Emanuel Swedenborg och den tyske filosofen ImmaA star forms with a surrounding protoplanetary disk after the collapse of a molecular cloud core. Subsequently, over a period of several Myr this protoplanetary disk of dust and gas is accreted onto the host star. We model the formation and evolution of such a protoplanetary disk using a one-dimensional numerical model. We find that disks form on a time scale of less than 1 Myr and that the size a
Abstract: Serial dependence (SD) refers to the influence of a recent stimulus on a person’s perceptual judgement of a current stimulus. SD has been found to arise for a wide variety of objects and features, including faces. Perceptual and mnemonic processes, along with response and decisional biases, are thought to contribute to SD effects. Here, two experimental studies are reported examining the
