Today’s architecture is no longer an isolated field of building design, but concerns human related issues including sociology and psychology and moreover climate adaptation, ecology, sustainability and technological innovation. Taking point of departure in intensification of precipitation due to the climate change in Denmark, this thesis project attempts to investigate the possibility of establish

Tanken på självkörande bilar har funnits nästan lika länge som det har funnits bilar. Denna uppsats har ämnat utreda vilka rättsekonomiska konsekvenser en skada vållad av ett förarlöst fordon medför samt hur lagstiftningen ur ett de lege ferenda-perspektiv bör vara utformat utifrån rättsekonomiska teorier. Rättsekonomi sträva efter ekonomisk effektivitet. Detta skapar välstånd för individer och väThe idea of self-driving cars has been around almost as long as there have been cars. This thesis investigates the legal consequences of damages caused by a driverless vehicle and how the legislation out of a de lege ferenda-perspective should be, based on legal-economic theories. Law and economics theories strives for economic efficiency. This creates wealth for individuals and welfare in society

Abstract in Danish Kapitlet viser først gennem en historisk analyse, at det er et relativt nyt fænomen, at de pårørende til mennesker, som trænger til hjælp i det danske sundhedssystem, på hospitalet, på plejehjemmet, i eget hjem og alle andre steder, beskrives og tænkes som en del af sundhedsvæsnet. Herefter gøres analytiske nedslag på hospitalet, plejehjemmet og i hjemmeplejen mhp. at se, hvorda

Information and communication technology (ICT) is ubiquitous in tourism and this changes not only tourists’ immediate behaviour, but also what tourism is. In this way, digitalisation is shifting perceptions of when tourism starts and ends, and how we can understand the term in principal ways. The aim of this working paper is to contribute to the debate about the consequences of today´s fast digita

In Sweden social work with homeless people is dominated by “Treatment First” (or the staircase model). The Treatment First models weak results in combating homelessness has increased the interest for Housing First. In 2015 we started a participatory design-oriented research project in the City of Helsingborg in Sweden that aims to implement principles of Housing First in a social housing programme

Many important scientific questions in physics, chemistry and biology require effective methodologies to spectroscopically probeultrafast intra- and inter-atomic/molecular dynamics. However, current methods that extend into the femtosecond regime arecapable of only point measurements or single-snapshot visualizations and thus lack the capability to perform ultrafast spectroscopicvideography of dynMany important scientific questions in physics, chemistry and biology require effective methodologies to spectroscopically probe ultrafast intra- and inter-atomic/molecular dynamics.

A series of worldwide projects concerning assessment, student outcomes and quality in higher education has revealed the need for a change in how higher education institutions assess student outcomes; however, many academics remain unconvinced. The success of assessment change arguably depends on the assessment culture within the institution. This qualitative investigation of assessment cultures dr

This study aims to investigate the feasibility of using diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS) to distinguish malignant breast tissue from adjacent healthy tissue, and to evaluate if an extended-wavelength range (450–1550 nm) has an advantage over the standard wavelength range (450–900 nm). Multivariate statistics and machine learning algorithms, either linear discriminant analysis (LDA) or supporThis study aims to investigate the feasibility of using diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS) to distinguish malignant breast tissue from adjacent healthy tissue, and to evaluate if an extended-wavelength range (450–1550 nm) has an advantage over the standard wavelength range (450–900 nm).

Friendships are central to our social lives, yet little is known about individual differences associated with the number of friends people enjoy spending time with. Here we present the Friendship Habits Questionnaire (FHQ), a new scale of group versus dyadic-oriented friendship styles. Three studies investigated the psychometric properties of group-oriented friendships and the relevant individual

Online engagement with criminal cases is often interpreted in either punitive or crowdsourcing terms, but interactionist and ethnomethodological analyses can disclose other and more fundamental aspects. This chapter looks closely at a particular practice among posters on the Swedish platform Flashback: that of summing up the discussion ‘so far’.

Financial accounting is a process that goes from the company’s transactions, through the accounting system and production of financial statements, to the use and analysis of the information by external parties. The analysis of financial statements is the basis for many important decisions. This book explains the fundamental role of financial accounting in the economy.The book covers both technical

On 31 January 2018, the Danish Competition and Consumer Authority adopted a decision that found the Swedish company CD Pharma, a generic distributor, to be in breach of Article 102(a) TFEU due to having abused its dominant position and imposed excessive and unfair prices for the drug Syntocinon. The company had increased the price of the drug by 2000% on the Danish market in the period April 2014-

This article is about the relation between (slow) memory and solidaric practices through the lens of a Warsaw-based activist group called Polskie Babcie (Polish Grandmothers). Driven by concerns for their grandchildren’s future, these grandmothers leaned heavily on memories as they manifested their support for the rule of law, the environment, LGBTQ+ rights, and more, during the rule of the nation
