1. INTRODUCTION Geographers at the University of Lund have been active in research on desertification/ land degradation and environmental change monitoring of African drylands since the mid 1970’ies and of Asian drylands since the beginning of the 1990’ies. The results obtained so far do not confirm the concept of desertification as a mainly man made phenomena but indicate that the importance of c
interactIVe introduces safety systems that autonomously brake and steer. The driver is continuously supported by interactIVe assistance systems. They warn the driver in potentially dangerous situations. The systems do not only react to driving situations, but are also able to actively intervene in order to protect occupants and vulnerable road users. The objective of interactIVe is to develop new
In 2007, a new regulatory framework in the European economic area opened up to a less regulated market. Now, share trading was not only done on the main stock markets but could also take place at alternative trading facilities. The deregulation led to greater competition, better consumer protection and a fragmented market with alternative trading facilities, which are subject to less regulation. T
Rätten till omprövning i andra instans i svensk rätt kan vara villkorad genom att det krävs prövningstillstånd för att målet ska tas upp till en ny fullständig prövning. Kravet förekommer dock endast i vissa fall, medan rätten till omprövning är ovillkorad i andra. I stora drag är reglerna hänförliga till vilken processtyp målet tillhör, civilprocessen, straffprocessen eller förvaltningsprocessen,The right to appeal can be conditioned in Swedish law, by a requirement for leave to appeal. The requirement only occurs in some cases, while the right of review is unconditioned in other cases. The rules are, broadly, incident to what procedure the dispute belongs to, civil procedure, criminal procedure or administrative procedure. However, the rules can also differ within the frames of the three
För patienter med långvarig smärta har kognitiv beteendeterapi (KBT) länge varit den dominerande psykologiska interventionen och behandlingen ges ofta multimodalt. Tidigare forskning har vittnat om relativt blygsamma behandlingsresultat. I den forskning som bedrivits under senare år har Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) fått alltmer empiriskt stöd som psykologisk behandling för långvarig smä
Efterfrågan av bättre digitala läroverktyg har ökat de senaste åren, och fick en ytterligare höjning av Covid-19-pandemin. Många företag använder artificiell intelligens för att förbättra sina system, där ett användarfall är frågegenerering. Teknologin inom artificiell intelligens har dock avancerat så snabbt att andra forskningsområden inte har hunnit ikapp. Målet med denna uppsats - vilken är
För att parter ska vilja ingå avtal med varandra måste det finnas påföljder som kan aktualiseras om en av parterna bryter mot avtalet. Skadestånd är en påföljd som både har en reparativ och en avskräckande funktion. Bestämmelser om skadestånd finns i ett antal lagar, som exempelvis i KöpL och i SkL. Det finns även olika standardavtal som innehåller bestämmelser om skadelidande parts möjlighet attFor parties to want to enter into agreements with each other, there must be sanctions that can be imposed if one of the parties breaches the agreement. Damages are a sanction that has both a reparative and a deterrent function. Damage provisions are found in several laws, such as in the Sale of Goods Act and in the Tort Liability Act. Various standard-form contracts contain provisions on the inju
Research questions: How will price altering affect sales volume for IKEA of Sweden Business Area 10’s products? Is it possible to estimate the products’ price elasticities? If so, what data is sufficient and how can these parameters contribute to future pricing procedures at BA10? What product properties are necessary in order to retain a reliable analysis? In which way are sales volumes influence
In this thesis the action of the Thermomyces lanuginosa lipase (TLL) on "real" substrates, that is, lipid aggregates - vesicles, micelles, emulsions, gels and liquid crystals is discussed. Even for a pure triolein, the system becomes quite complex as the lipolytic process starts, both in terms of structure and composition, involving 5 additional components - diolein (DO), monoolein (MO), oleic aci
The game industry’s size and growth over the last 25 years has evolved from an almost nonexistent market to a huge industry. Another phenomenon which has also had a huge growth during the last decade is e-commerce, the buying and selling of products and services over the Internet. Video games are naturally connected to computers and the Internet. This together with the fact that they are digital p
The aim of this thesis is to investigate whether restrictions to parallel trade in the pharmaceutical industry, distorting the internal market, are treated differently by the Court of Justice compared to other sectors, on grounds of the specific characteristics of the pharmaceutical sector. For this purpose the focus is on restrictions deriving from dominant pharmaceutical companies’ refusal to su
This master thesis analyzes the accounting and auditing reforms in the Post-Soviet world. It is the very interesting issue, because comparing with the rest of Europe and Asia the former soviet countries have extra challenges in this process. They are not only trying to adopt international accounting and auditing standards, but also move away from command economy which is not an easy task. The regu
In a society of rapidly increasing complexity, new ways of addressing challenges are required.As new students entering university today are driven by different motivations than previous generations and call for more innovative approaches to working life, we at the university level must also adapt to this change.Based on theories of consciousness development and the study-related social environment
Jordens plattektoniska rörelser leder till tektoniska skeenden vid plattgränserna, bland annat bergskedjebildning, då berggrunden utsätts för förändringar i tryck och temperatur. Vid ändrat tryck och ändrad temperatur förändras också bergarter: de ursprungliga mineralen konsumeras i kemiska reaktioner och i stället bildas nya mineral som är stabila vid de nya fysikaliska förhållandena - en processDating of metamorphic events is crucial for the understanding and reconstruction of large-scale geological processes such as orogenesis. Zircon is one of the most commonly used minerals for dating of igneous and metamorphic events. Zircon incorporates uranium and excludes lead during crystallization, and with time the uranium decays to lead. The diffusion rates of both elements are slow, making zi
Library assessment and external intelligence is important for tracking and improving library activities. Quality assurance and strategic planning are intricate parts in sustainably developing better and more effective services. Gothenburg University Library has implemented a process with the goal to join these activities. The process has both bottom-up and top-down features designed to generate st
