Syftet med denna uppsats är att studera hur efterlevande makes arvsrätt och andra ekonomiska skyddsregler vid händelse av den ena makens död är uppbyggda. Syftet är även att ur ett genusperspektiv analysera denna lagstiftning för att på så sätt få en djupare förståelse för varför reglerna är konstruerade på detta specifika sätt. För att kunna diskutera genusaspektens påverkan på den svenska lagstiThe purpose of this paper is to study how the surviving spouse’s inheritance rights and other financial guarantees in case of death of the other spouse are constructed and from a gender perspective’s analyse this legislation in order to gain a deeper understanding of why the rules are designed in this specific way. In order to discuss the gender perspectives impact on the Swedish law it’s importan

When testing bilingual children, as a speech and language therapist, one often encounter problems. A field which is especially challenging to test is lexical-semantic production. The aim was to shed more light on bilingual children’s inhibitory and switching ability during picture-naming and related non-verbal tests and which factors must be taken into consideration when evaluating these results.

Today there is more people living in urban areas than in rural; this has changed the structure of the cities and resulted in a faster growing slum in the developing world, especially in Sub Saharan Africa (SSA). The purpose of this study is to first give a broad overview of slum characters and motivations, and analyze the fact that slum formation is wider in developing countries than in industrial

The progression of fire safety research has contributed to improving the guiding principles of standardised building design. Research making use of pure materials, once common in homes and workplaces, are less relevant as such materials are no longer as prevalent. It is often newer, composite materials that are featured more prominently in building contents. The trend towards the evolution of commIt is widely accepted that by lowering the oxygen concentration below that of the typical ambient conditions (21% Oxygen) fuels are less likely to ignite and will burn slower. ORS (Oxygen Reduction Systems) make use of this to protect their contents. The oxygen concentration in these systems is done by introducing a flow rate containing a higher percentage of nitrogen into the protected area. The

In the early 17th century when Galileo Galilei first decided to point a telescope at Jupiter, he noticed four faint objects placed around it on the same line. As he spent more and more nights viewing them he realised that instead of moving in the same direction as Jupiter these four objects in fact orbited the planet itself. This proved that it is possible for another body to be the centre of grav

Största delen av det svenska vägnätet består idag av belagd väg. Med det i åtanke så krävs det därför att vägarna vid sin anläggning respektive när underhållsåtgärd sker blivit väl dimensionerade samt blivit korrekt utförda. Under en tid i Sverige har Trafikverket med sitt dokument TRVK väg numera TRVINFRA styrt hur de statliga vägarna skall dimensioneras med sina tre dimensioneringsklasser. I dirThe largest part of the Swedish state roads are today paved. With this in mind it is therefore demanded when a road in question is constructed respectively when a maintenance measure is taken place that the dimensioning of the road from the start was done properly. Since a while back in Sweden it has been upon the Swedish Transport Administration to regulate with their document “TRVK Väg”, now TRV

Development is often looked upon in economical terms and often research tries to investigate how one country can produce or sell more in order to increase its GDP. This thesis does not exclude these considerations but focuses on health as an important aspect of development. I investigate why South Africans (SA) would place their lives at risk with full knowledge of AIDS by not using freely availab

Up to recently mobile gamma spectrometry has mostly been performed with NaI(Tl)-based detector systems. However lately the interest of using HPGe(High Purity Germanium)-based systems have increased and one has realised that the excellent energy resolution of HPGe-detectors, in combination with the possibility to manufacture larger crystals than before, is an advantage not only when performing in s

Är exoskelett framtiden för stroke rehabilitering? Strokepatienter får ofta minskad rörlighet vilken i viss mån går att återfå genom rehabilitering. Exoskelett öppnar dörrar för nya möjligheter inom detta . Tänkt dig att du sitter i soffan med ditt morgonkaffe och gör dig redo för att återigen göra dina arm-övningar. Varför var det just du som skulle få den där stroken i somras? Hela ditt liv väTo regain mobility in an affected limb after a stroke it is important to be consistent with rehabilitation exercises. The purpose of this project was to create an active orthosis for the elbow joint. The intended use of the orthosis is to help stroke patients during rehabilitation and to enable the possibility to use the orthosis at home without the assistance of a physiotherapist or other help. T

This qualitative study applies to young men between the ages of 18 and 21 who live in community homes (HVB hem), and have an ongoing substance abuse and addiction problem. The focus will be on the motivation and treatment that from the young men's perspective promotes the process of change to start a life without addiction. This activity, which fulfills an incredibly essential function in soci

While Sweden falls short in integrating youths growing up in segregated areas, these disadvantaged neighborhoods are more frequently imposed to profit-driven strategies that result in gentrification. This thesis aims to uncover how gentrification affects the lived experience that youths from disadvantaged areas have of their habitat. Choosing the case of Järva, Stockholm, the ways youths perceive

Non-technical summaryEnsuring more equitable transformations requires addressing how different contextual dimensions of identity, such as gender and class, hinder equity. However, previous analyses on equity have addressed these dimensions separately. We suggest advancing beyond these methods by integrating intersectional analysis into the distributive, procedural, and recognition aspects of equit

Background: We aimed to study the long-term effect of smoking on coronary atherosclerosis progression at the segmental level. Methods: Angiographic data (1989-2017) on current, former, and nonsmokers were collected from the Swedish Coronary Angiography and Angioplasty Registry. The Western Denmark Heart Registry was used to validate the results. Patients with clinically indicated angiography with

Chemical processing by plasma is utilized in many applications. Plasma-related studies, however, are challenging to carry out due to plasmas' transient and unpredictable behavior, excessive luminosity emission, 3D complexity and aggressive chemistry and physiochemical interactions that are easily affected by external probing. Laser-induced fluorescence is a robust technique for non-intrusive inves

The paper gives a brief presentation of the cultural and institutional specificities of Sweden and how these cultural and institutional specificities impact the development of the Swedish social welfare system over periods of change, transition and strategic adjustment. The paper concludes by presenting a suggestion of a new view of the relationship between culture and social welfare systems, whic
