The Antonine itinerary was compiled in the early fourth century CE and is a key source to our know¬¬ledge about ancient geography and the Roman road system. However, the major research work dates more than 100 years back in time and few studies have been focussed on its overall reliability. The aim of the present work is to assess the accuracy of the distance figures in the itinerary by internal v
The concrete sector is a major contributor to global greenhouse gas emissions; consumes substantial amounts of natural resources and serves as a significant source of global waste. The Circular Economy approach has been put forward as the solution to these environmental issues, but the overall effectiveness of the approach has been called into question by existing research. The aim of this thesis
The purpose of this essay is to closer study the narrative of Saint Lucy in Jacobus de Voragine’s work Legenda Aurea to be able to contribute to the present lack of research regarding Lucy of Syracuse. The essay uses the theories of cultural memory and the theoretical narratological framework of Mikhail Bakhtin to answer the question on how Lucy is portrayed in the Legenda Aurea. Furthermore, the
Sedan NJA 2005 s. 462 har det utvecklats ett skadeståndsansvar för staten vid överträdelser av Europakonventionen. Detta ansvar innefattar även ideella skador. Senare har ansvaret vidgats till att även omfatta överträdelser av fri- och rättigheter i 2 kap. RF genom NJA 2014 s. 323. Lagstiftaren har på grund av denna utveckling i rättspraxis valt att införa en särskild bestämmelse i skadeståndslageSince the case of NJA 2005 s. 462 a liability to pay damages has developed in case law in case of violations of the European convention on human rights and fundamental freedoms (ECHR) by the Swedish State. This liability also includes violations of chapter 2 of the Instrument of Government, which was first established in the case of NJA 2014 s. 323. The liability both considering ECHR and the Inst
Following the adoption of the "double carbon" policy in China, the concept of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) has gained considerable attention within the Chinese market, significantly impacting investor decision-making. This thesis examines the impacts of ESG principles on the overall financial performance of investment portfolios. Through the classification of Chinese A-lis
It is sometimes said that modern politics has lost track of ideology and vision - that personal charisma and expertise is rewarded more than firm beliefs and connections with an organised movement. In their book Technopopulism: the New Logic of Democratic Politics, Christopher J. Bickerton and Carlo Invernizzi Accetti go beyond such suspicions. Their main argument is that the organisational politi
Trots en sedan länge pågående debatt i doktrinen har både 1905 års köplag och dagens köplag tillämpats på företagsförvärv som sker genom en aktieöverlåtelse. Det är dock tydligt att lagstiftaren inte hade företagsförvärv eller aktieköp i åtanke när köplagen skrevs och reglerna tenderar därför att vara mindre lämpliga för aktieöverlåtelser vid företagsförvärv. I många situationer blir detta inget pDespite a long-standing debate in the doctrine, both the 1905 Swedish Sales of Goods Act and the current Swedish Sales of Goods Act have been applied to company acquisitions through share transfers. However, the legislator did not have company acquisitions or share purchases in mind when drafting the Sales of Goods Act and the set of rules therefore tends to be less suitable for share transfers in
Detta examensarbete behandlar utvecklingen av ett intelligent belysningssystem på Beckhoff Automation AB:s kontor i Malmö. Syftet är att minska energiförbrukningen utan att kompromissa användarkomforten, genom att automatisera styrningen av kontorets belysning med hjälp av närvarodetektering, ljusnivåmätningar och fördefinierade ljusscenarier. Projektet programmeras via Beckhoffs PLC-system, TwinC
Restoring and meandering straightened streams is an important part of the Swedish environmental objective “Live lakes and water courses”. Restoration improves the living conditions for plants and animals that reside in or near the stream, and increases the uptake of excess nutrients leaking from nearby farmland. In this study, I have examined two restored streams; Glomsbäcken and Trollebergssträck
In this study we acquire an insight into the songwriting processes of eight female artists and music teachers. We investigate their creative processes, their thoughts on creativity and songwriting and the methods they use when composing. The informants share some of the challenges they face during the process and how to overcome them. Furthermore, we learn about factors enhancing the songwriting a
Responsibility and freedom : a study in managing copyright and trademark Avsikten med uppsatsen har varit att undersöka sambandet mellan författare och varumärke. Utifrån Moomin Characters Oy och Saltkråkan AB, vilka förvaltar Tove Janssons respektive Astrid Lindgrens rättigheter, har arbetet identifierat verksamheternas varumärken och mål. Varumärken som skiljer sig mellan verksamhet och förfat
Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning - Automatiskt ingångssystem med hjälp av flerobjektsspårning Tänk om de dörrar du passerar vet vart du är på väg? Med en kamera och bildbehandling visar vi att man kan spåra människor och förutse deras rörelse. Detta ger stora energibesparingar och ökad komfort. Automatiska dörrar är något de flesta kommer i kontakt med dagligen, på jobbet, gymmet eller i matvIn this thesis we employ computer vision methods in order to extend and improve the functionality of automatic doors. This thesis is based around the implementation of a door entrance system which uses information from detected pedestrians to make qualified decisions regarding door activation. This can lead to a reduced amount of unnecessary openings which will reduce the energy consumption of bui
Abstract There are several problems when studying, as this thesis, the interplay between the concepts of Europe and of nation, in an official discourse of a state. One is that these concepts are largely seen as being in a dichotomous position. This research argues about the importance of changing the perception about the various way the concepts can relate to each other. The study considers the re
