The most severe urban flooding in cold maritime climates is due to the co-action of long-duration rainfall, snowmelt, and soil frost. Increasing winter air temperature due to climate change is projected to change the magnitude and frequency of rain-on-snow (RoS) events and increase the number of freeze–thaw cycles and midwinter snowmelt. While daily rainfall records are readily available, less is

Individual monitoring of radiation workers is essential to ensure compliance with legal dose limits and to ensure that doses are As Low As Reasonably Achievable. However, large uncertainties still exist in personal dosimetry and there are issues with compliance and incorrect wearing of dosimeters. The objective of the PODIUM (Personal Online Dosimetry Using Computational Methods) project was to im

Under de senaste åren har möjligheten till att arbeta hemifrån och på distans i Sverige ökat i stor omfattning, speciellt med tanke på COVID-19 pandemin. Arbetssättet som det flexibla arbetslivet medför, har inneburit att fler arbeten kan utföras utan tidsmässiga, rumsliga eller organisatoriska gränser. Arbete hemifrån och på distans har öppnat en ny värld för flexibilitet i arbetslivet, men samtiDuring the last couple of years, teleworking in Sweden have increased to a large extent, especially considering the COVID-19 pandemic. The way of working that the flexible work life entails, means that more types of work can be carried out without temporal, spatial or organizational limits. Teleworking have opened a new world for flexibility in the work life, but at the same time it has entailed r

Uppsatsen syftar till att utreda ersättningssystemet av rättegångskostnader i förvaltningsprocessen och hur väl det stämmer överens med rätten till en rätt-vis rättegång. Särskilt kommer avgörandet HFD 2022 ref. 10 att redogöras för och kritiseras. Arbetet tillämpar en kritisk rättsdogmatisk metod. I förvaltningsprocessen gäller som huvudregel kvittningsprincipen, som inne-bär att parterna bär siThe study’s ambition is to examine the order of reimbursement of legal costs in the administrative law procedure and how it compels to the right of a fair trial. In particular, the ruling by the Supreme administrative court (HFD 2022 ref. 10) will be exposed and criticized. The paper uses a critical legal dogmatic method. In the administrative procedure, the principle of set-off applies, which me

Today cities are the result of centuries of history and human development, accelerated during the past 100 years. Post-industrialization, modernism’s top-down city planning approach, and the prioritisation of motor vehicle design over humans resulted in more people moving to cities, more space needed to allocate new vehicles, expansion over rural areas, and exponential pollution growth. Thus, huma

An interacting particle system is a stochastic process describing the evolution of finitely or infinitely many particles, each of which, in the absence of any interaction, would evolve like a Markov process. The particle system can be examined in different scales by grouping particles together and considering their average. Their behaviour is described by a Markov process on a microscopic scale, w

Situationen rörande undervattenskablar och ledningar är mer aktuella än någonsin. Med bakgrund i den allt snabbare digitaliseringen i världen, har denna typ av infrastruktur blivit allt viktigare givet dess användning för kommunikationstjänster och energitillgångar. Detta har gjort sådan infrastruktur en sårbar måltavla för hybridkrigföring. Under de senaste tre åren har sådana situationer utspelaThe situation regarding submarine cables and pipelines is more relevant than ever. As the world’s digitalisation keeps increasing, submarine infrastructure acquires more and more importance due to its vitality for communication services and energy reliability, thus becoming a vulnerable target for hybrid warfare. Such acts of deliberate sabotage have surged, with seven incidents being reported in

This thesis examines the external effectiveness of the European Green Deal (EGD) through a case study of Qatar. While the EGD positions the European Union (EU) as a global leader in sustainability, its extraterritorial impact, particularly via the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) and the Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD), raises questions about how these n

Syftet med denna studie är att jämföra olika metoder att kvantifiera den kemiska fettsammansättningen i benmärg med hjälp av magnetkamerateknik, att jämföra dessa metoder för två olika magnetfältsstyrkor samt att ta fram referensfantom och beräkningsalgoritmer för att uppskatta fettinnehållet. Magnetresonans, eller MR, är en vanlig diagnostisk teknik inom vården. Magnetkameran använder sig av ettPurpose: To optimize a method and develop an algorithm to quantify Fatty Acid Composition (FAC) in bone marrow adipose tissue. By using different reconstruction models, compare different MRI systems (3 T and 7 T) to find the optimal field strength and reconstruction model for FAC quantification. Also, to develop a reference phantom with bone marrow-like characteristics. Method: Multi-echo GRE (Gr

Ökad undersökningsdjupet i magnetomotoriskt ultraljud med hjälp av ett homogent magnetfält. Medicinska bilder spelar en stor roll för att ställa diagnoser och styra terapi. Olika discipliner som radiologi, endoskopi eller mikroskopi används för att skapa bilder på människan, alla med olika syften. Diagnostiskt ultraljud är en av dessa bildgivande metoder. En så kallad prob sänder ut ljud i olika Magnetomotive Ultrasound, MMUS, is an imaging modality used to reveal a magnetic contrast agent using an external time-varying inhomogeneous magnetic field. By this, the particles are set in motion, and the motion is detected with ultrasound. The technique has applications in cancer detection but is limited in penetration as the magnetic field decreases rapidly with distance. Instead of increasing

Tacit knowledge is valuable because of its hard imitability, this also creates the challenge of spreading it to other employees in the organization. This study describes the phenomenon of tacit knowledge sharing (TKS) in project-based engineering organizations (PBEOs) and is directed at practitioners to allow them to improve their role as facilitators of TKS. PBEOs manage research and design proje

Sedan det svenska tvångsvårdssystemet reformerades år 1992 har den slutna rättspsykiatriska vården mottagit omfattande kritik. Enligt lagen (1991:1129) om rättspsykiatrisk vård (LRV) ska tvångsvården för vissa psykiskt sjuka gärningspersoner förenas med beslut om särskild utskrivningsprövning. Det innebär att vården endast kan upphöra efter att en domstol bedömt att både personens behov av psykiatSince the Swedish forced psychiatric care system was reformed in 1992, the regulations of forensic psychiatric care have received extensive criticism. According to the Forensic Psychiatric Care Act (1991:1129) (LRV), forced forensic psychiatric care for certain mentally ill offenders shall be combined with a special assessment on discharge. This means that forensic psychiatric care can only end af
