Den utbredda gängkriminaliteten och bruket av vapen eller andra farliga föremål på offentliga platser är ständigt närvarande i den politiska debatten i Sverige. Frågor rörande vilka medel och befogenheter polisen har och bör ha återkommer frekvent och i diskussionen framkommer ofta referenser till Danmark och systemet med visitationszoner som där finns. En liknande, men inte identisk, lagstiftningThe widespread gang violence and the use of weapons in public spaces are often focal points in Swedish political debate. Questions regarding which means and authorities the police have and should have are raised frequently and references to Denmark and their system with ‘stop and search’ zones are often mentioned in the discussions. A similar, but not identical, legislation to the one in Denmark h

Concrete hardens as a result of chemical reactions between water and cement. Cement is a hydraulic binder, in the reaction the cement binds water-molecules. This is an exoterm process, heat is produced during the reactions. How fast this process proceeds is much depending of the temperature. The amount of heat produced during the hardening of the concrete is also depending on the thickness of the

Cancer är en av de vanligaste dödsorsakerna och står bakom 10 miljoner dödsfall varje år. De vanligaste och mest studerade behandlingarna av cancer inkluderar kemoterapi och cellgifter, men det finns även andra sätt att behandla cancer. Ponera att kroppen själv kunde ta hand om cancer. Människans immunförsvar kan besegra både virus och bakterier, så intuitivt borde det inte vara mycket svårare föAccounting for 10 million deaths and 20 million new cases every year, cancer is one of the most common causes of death. The interest in trying to understand this lethal disease using mathematical models has increased steadily for many decades. Methods for boosting the immune system to better fight cancer (immunotherapy) have also been long present. However, the full potential of immunotherapy me

Pulsatile flows in geometries of physiological relevance have been investigated. Atherosclerotic plaques are (initiated) near junctions and bifurcations in larger arteries. The flow in these regions is characterized by flow separation and unsteadiness, which indicates that local flow conditions contribute to atherogenesis. Flows in curved and bifurcating pipes have been investigated over many y

Uppsatsens övergripande syfte är att utifrån 2014 år sexualbrottskommitténs förslag utreda eventuella konsekvenser av en samtyckesreglering i våldtäktslagstiftningen, ur ett bevisrättsligt perspektiv. En våldtäkt kan se ut på flera sätt, den gemensamma nämnaren är att handlingen anses utgöra en gränslös kränkning av den sexuella integriteten och självbestämmanderätten. Dagens lagstiftning har fåThe main purpose of this essay is to examine, from the Sexual Offences Commissions proposal, the possible consequences of a regulation based on consent and how it will affect assessment of evidence. A rape can occur in a variety of ways, what they have in common is to be considered a boundless violation of a person’s sexual integrity and self-determination. Today’s legislation has received strong

Universum är en underlig plats som har ställt många frågor, vissa som vi svarat på men många är kvar och ännu fler är okända. En av de som vi aktivt börjat besvara är frågan om mörk materia. Hur vet vi att det finns? Hur kan vi veta mer? Vad är det? Den första av dessa delfrågor har vi redan besvarat, vi vet att mörk materia finns för att det behövs någon osynlig massa för att, bland annat, rotatiDark matter has an important role in our Universe, especially in galaxy formation and evolution, but there are many theoretical models that attempt to describe it and to find out which one, if any, are correct we must test them. Testing a theoretical model of this nature at a galactic scale must and has been done using computational methods through simulations, but this has revealed more complicat

Idag vet man genom flertalet forskningsrapporter och studier att barn som bevittnar våld i nära relationer kan ta lika stor skada som barn som direkt utsätts för misshandel, och att omfattningen av barns våldsexponering i hemmet är stor. Det har i förarbeten uttryckts att dessa barn kan anses vara föremål för en form av psykisk misshandel. Att låta barn bevittna våld är emellertid inte en kriminalWe know from a majority of research studies that children who witness domestic violence can take as much damage as children directly exposed to assault offenses, and that the extent of children's exposure of violence at home are of great proportions. It has been expressed in Swedish legislation that these children can be subject to psychological abuse. Allowing children to witness violence is

There is compelling evidence to suggest that estrogen administration to women of climacteric age reduces subsequent myocardial infarction by some 50%. Accumulating data also suggests estrogens confer substantial protection from stroke. Given this rationale, it is prudent to suggest to regulatory bodies that estrogen treatment would have this indication. Estrogens have other well-defined, and less

Aims of this thesis were to compare the agreement of different magnetic resonance angiography(MRA) techniques and digital subtraction angiography (DSA) in follow-up of intracranial aneurysms treated with coils in order to select the best MRA method, to evaluate the impact of increased iodine concentration in contrast medium and decreased tube voltage on arterial attenuation and image quality in co

Downsizing is a phenomenon that remarkably seldom has been the subject of historical inquiry. This study investigates how a state-owned enterprise, the Swedish Tobacco Monopoly, reduced its labour inputs because of changed consumer preferences and mechanization in the 1920s and 1930s. By combining qualitative and quantitative evidence, the study addresses questions about the ways of achieving redu

Understanding farmer behaviour is needed for local agricultural systems to produce food sustainably while facing multiple pressures. We synthesize existing literature to identify three fundamental questions that correspond to three distinct areas of knowledge necessary to understand farmer behaviour: 1) decision-making model; 2) cross-scale and cross-level pressures; and 3) temporal dynamics. We u

Carbohydrate-deficient transferrin (CDT) is a generic term that refers to the transferrin glycoforms whose concentration in blood is temporarily increased by sustained alcohol consumption. Due to high clinical specificity, CDT was proposed as a biomarker of heavy alcohol use and has been available for about 20 years. A number of methods have been developed for CDT measurement based on different an

Dumping is generally considered an unfair practice and through the Antidumping Agreement of the GATT many governments offer protection to domestic producers against dumped goods. In 1992 and 1998 large amounts of steel entered the U.S. at low prices, and large amounts of antidumping investigations were initiated in order to curb the surge of imports flooding the country. The increase in steel imp

The bioeconomy is currently being globally promoted as a sustainability avenue involving several societal actors. While the bioeconomy is broadly about the substitution of fossil resources with bio-based ones, three main (competing or complementary) bioeconomy visions are emerging in scientific literature: resource, biotechnology, and agroecology. The implementation of one or more of these visions

Research SummaryGrowth often requires start‐ups to recruit new skills not present in the founding team. We analyze if the relationship between integrating new skills and growth depends on timing. Should new skills be recruited as early as possible, or can start‐ups add them as needed along the way? Using a unique panel dataset covering Sweden's population of start‐ups from 1997 to 2012, our analys

Semiconductor nanowire (NW) solar cells with a single p-n junction have exhibited efficiency comparable to that of their planar counterparts with a substantial reduction in material consumption. Tandem geometry is a path toward the fabrication of devices with even higher efficiencies, for which a key step is the fabrication of tunnel (Esaki) diodes within NWs with the correct diameter, pitch, and

The use of external providers for the provision of information and communication technology (ICT) in small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) is expected to increase. At the end of the 1990s the concept of Application Service Provision (ASP) and Application Service Providers (ASPs) was introduced. This is described as one way for SMEs to provide themselves with software applications. However, it

The hydrophilic/hydrophobic properties of the membrane material have an important influence on the membrane flux reduction when treating solutions containing hydrophobic solutes. Different methods of measuring the hydrophobic properties of membranes have been evaluated; measurement of the contact angle being the most commonly used method. In this investigation the flux reduction of eight membranes
