Geographic Information Systems (GIS) have acquired greater relevance as tools to support decision-making processes, and during the last decades they have been used in conjunction with Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis techniques (GIS-MCDA) to solve real-world spatial problems. GIS-MCDA can be generally divided in Multi-Attribute and Multi-Objective techniques. Until now most of the applications of
Building sustainable, collaborative solutions to contemporary sustainability challenges requires a new generation of future professionals or ‘change-agents,’ the engagement of non-academic stakeholders, and academic facilitation. Educational reform is needed in order to enhance students’ competencies in becoming effective sustainability professionals. Effective collaborative platforms have the pot
Over the years, the Erasmus+ Programme has grown from a framework with options limited to the few Member States at the time to an extensive Programme with opportunities provided to countries inside and outside of the European Union. Some actions of the Erasmus+ Programme allow countries outside the EU, so-called third countries, to participate in the projects as partners. One such action is Capaci
Skattelagstiftning styrs av principer, som ibland kan säga emot varandra och då behöva vägas mot varandra. I förarbeten redogör lagstiftaren för hur denna bedömning ser ut, och det är möjligt att genom förarbeten analysera vilka principer lagstiftaren behandlar, hur de behandlas och hur de vägs mot varandra. Det finns olika sätt att dela in skatterättsliga principer; ett sätt är att dela in dem i Tax law is governed by principles, that sometimes may contradict each other and then need to be weighed against each other. In preparatory works the lawmaker gives their account for how the assessment of principles looks like, and it’s possible through preparatory works to analyse which principles the lawmaker considers, how they’re considered, and how they’re weighed against each other. There are
Domstolarnas uppgift att verka för förlikningar har fått allt större prioritet sedan Rättegångsbalkens införande. När parterna lyckas nå en förlikning i en tvist som är anhängiggjord i domstol kan de välja att begära stadfästelse. Om avtalet reglerar den sak som talan rör ska rätten stadfästa avtalet i en dom. Denna dom får sedan rättskraft och frågan i målet kan därmed inte prövas igen. För att nThe courts’ task of trying to reach a conciliation between parts in a dispute has gained increasing priority since the Swedish Civil procedure law came into force. When parties successfully reach an agreement in a dispute pending in court, they can request ratification. If the agreement addresses the subject matter of the claim, the court will ratify the agreement through a judgment. Through the r
The manufacturing industry is heading towards a more digitized environment. Sandvik Coromant is therefore developing intelligent tools, as well as software tools for machining applications. The aim for this thesis is to develop the understanding of a specific machining process. This is done through a background study of previously known methods, followed by development of a demonstrator to integra
När ett nytt sätt att använda ett redan känt läkemedel för behandling av en ny sjukdom påvisas, är det möjligt att erhålla ett patent den andra medicinska indikationen. Tidigare var det inte möjligt att patentera senare medicinska indikationer på grund av det allmänna nyhetskravet och förbudet på patent på medicinska förfaranden för diagnosticering eller terapeutisk och kirurgisk behandling. Till When a new medical use for a known pharmaceutical drug is discovered, it is possible to be granted a second medical use patent. Second medical use patents were previously not accepted due to the general novelty requirement for patents and the prohibition of patents on treatments by surgery or therapy and diagnostic methods. Due to the developments in EPO case law and the revision of EPC it is howe
Den här uppsatsen diskuterar äktenskapet och dess okritiserade roll i den svenska familjerätten. Det huvudsakliga syftet med uppsatsen är att granska äktenskapet som en statligt reglerad samlevnadsform. Detta görs genom att granska äktenskapets historia, gällande rätt, äktenskapets funktioner och lagstiftarens överväganden vid reglering av intima relationer. Uppsatsen har också ett kritiskt anslagThis paper discusses marriage and its uncriticized role in Swedish family law. The main purpose of the essay is to examine marriage as a state regulated form of intimate relation between individuals. The essay examines the history of marriage, the applicable law, the function of marriage and the legislator’s considerations when it comes to legislation concerning intimate relations. This paper als
Bakgrund: Användning av olika handelskanaler vid köp av ett klädesplagg har ökat de senaste åren. Företag anpassar sig mer efter konsumenters växande behov av tillgänglighet och flexibilitet. Köpprocessen, från behovsupptäckt till köpbeslut, utförs bland annat i fysisk butik, online på bärbara och stationära datorer eller via mobila enheter. Konsumenter har numera blivit vana att oberoende av kontBackground: The use of different purchasing channels when looking for a piece of clothing has increased in recent years. Companies adapt to a greater extent to consumers’ growing need for accessibility and flexibility. The purchase process, from discovering needs to the decision of purchase, could be performed through physical store, online on a laptop and desktop computer, or through a mobile dev
In World Duty Free Group [2016], the CJEU clarified that it has developed two methods in its case law for the purpose of assessing selectivity in tax measures: the three-step approach and the Gibraltar method. The three-step approach may be used when the tax measure in question takes the form of a tax advantage that derogates from an ordinary tax system. In turn, the Gibraltar method may be used w
För att uppnå maximal nytta med skattebetalarnas pengar eftersträvar Trafikverket att vägar ska byggas med lång livslängd. För att uppnå detta vill Trafikverket i framtiden ha möjlighet att ställa krav på vägars bärighet i totalentreprenader, utöver de funktionskrav (exempelvis spårbildning och jämnhet) som redan ställs på vägens yta idag. Vid slutbesiktning skall fallviktsmätningar utföras som viTo achieve maximum benefit with both resources and money, the Swedish Transport Administration want to set requirements regarding the bearing capacity in design and construct contracts to ensure a long lifetime of roads. A falling weight deflectometer test is to be carried out for the final inspection of the road and the results will tell the Swedish Transport Administration whether the contractor
När rubriceringen arbetsmiljöbrott infördes i brottsbalken var det med det uttryckliga syftet att paragrafen skulle ha ett pedagogiskt syfte, att den skulle markera allvarligheten i brottet genom att särskilt peka ut arbetsmiljöansvarigas vidsträckta ansvar samt att säkerställa upprätthållande av risk- och skadeförebyggande verksamhet genom ett effektivt straffrättsligt sanktionssystem med sådan sWhen the work environment crime was introduced in the Swedish Penal Code, it was with the expressed pedagogical purpose that it would highlight the seriousness of the crime by specifically pointing out the work environment managers' extensive responsibility and ensuring maintenance of risk and injury prevention through an effective criminal sanction system with such sharpness that the importan
The process of pouring concrete is very common in the construction industry. Typically, a person stands on top of reinforcements around the mold of the slab while manually pushing the hose, guiding it in a smooth side-to-side movement until an even pour has filled up the mold. Another person is positioned at a distance from the pouring end controlling the pump and thus the flow of concrete through
Currently, there is no direct support for storing simulation output within semantic 3D city models (CityGML). This master thesis explores a potential methodology for this purpose, with a focus on using appearances of 3D geometries instead of creating generic city objects and attributes or adding an Application Domain Extension (ADE). The caveat with the last two methods is that they require addit
Sveriges geologiska undersökning (SGU) har ägnat flera år åt att undersöka den svenska berggrunden för att utreda möjligheterna för geologisk lagring av koldioxid. Djupt liggande akviferer anses ha störst potential och den kambriska Faluddensandstenen, som finns i Östersjön öster om Gotland, visar stor potential som lagringsakvifer. I denna studie har borrkärnan St. Sutarve-2018 från södra GotlandThe Geological Survey of Sweden (SGU) has spent several years investigating the Swedish bedrock to find suitable bedrock for geological storage of carbon dioxide. Deep saline aquifers are considered to have the greatest potential, and the Cambrian Faludden Sandstone subcropping in the Baltic Sea east of Gotland, shows great potential as a storage aquifer. In this study, the drill core St. Sutarve
This thesis investigates the out-migration patterns of women from major municipalities in Denmark from 2013 to 2023, focusing on the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. It addresses three key topics: 1) changes in out-migration patterns during the pandemic and the subsequent two years, 2) differences in these patterns among the four large municipalities, and 3) the effects of the pandemic on remote w
