This paper aims to analyze economical factors behind urban decay, also referred to as slums, in The United States and particularly vulnerable areas in Sweden. The purpose with this paper is to conclude whether or not urban decay in the U.S can be compared with particularly vulnerable areas in Sweden by examining the predominant economic factors behind decayed and particularly vulnerable areas in e

Today in Sweden the concept of the greyzone students that stands between the nine-year compulsory school and special school for mentally retarded children is recognised in different studies and reports. It is not obvious for this group of students to decide which category best can comply with their needs. Should they go in nine-year compulsory school or special school for mentally retarded childre

In line with current tendencies of 'new modes of governance', this essay introduces judicial tools which strike a balance between the respect for national autonomy in individual assessments and the effective implementation of Community law. The balance is struck through the demands of structural guarantees&semic administrative safeguards, which weeds out arbitrary national decision-mak

PFAS are a group of persistent and harmful chemicals that are widely used in both industrial applications and consumer products. PFAS are commonly detected in the environment and pose health concerns. Adsorption by GAC is considered an effective treatment method for removing PFAS from water. After a certain period of operation, GAC requires high-temperature incineration as disposal method. Another

Är framtiden hyggesfri? De senaste åren har intresset för skogar som sköts utan kalhyggen ökat, inte minst i takt med att klimatförändringarna gör sig alltmer påminda. När man brukar skogen med hyggesfria metoder tas virket fortfarande tillvara, virke som kan användas till hus, papper eller möbler. Samtidigt står mycket av skogen kvar vilket gör att den kan bjuda in till friluftsliv, bidra till a

The Bangladeshi Gen Zs and university students demonstrated a revolutionary example of civic engagement, participatory culture, subcultural identity formation, and reformation during the Student Quota Reform Movement in July, leading to the July massacre where thousands of protesting students were tortured and shot to death in public. The movement happened as an enraged response against the announ

Issue of study Recent innovation measurement literature recognizes the need for uniqueness and suitability in a company’s innovation activities. Previous contributions construct a measurement framework with examples of metrics for the intended company to choose from. But recommendations are sparse on how to select which to use and how they will affect the organization. It is here a gap is identifi

An enhanced greenhouse effect could possibly result in frequency changes of extreme events. Observations of variations and changes in the frequency of extreme air pressure is an example of such events. Extreme air pressures are here defined as pressure lower than or equal to 990 hPa or higher than or equal to 1036 hPa. A gridded dataset from UKMO (United Kingdom Meteorological Office) with a spati

Tidigare studier har dokumenterat ett flertal fossila meteoriter samt höga koncentrationer av utomjordisk kromit (ett järn-kromoxidmineral) i cirka 467 miljoner år gamla, mellanordoviciska sedimentlager. Fynden antas vara resultaten av ett tillfälligt förhöjt inflöde av meteoritiskt material, efter uppbrytningen av en kropp i asteroidbältet – de så kallade L-kondriternas föräldrakropp – för omkriNumerous fossil meteorites and high concentrations of sediment-dispersed extraterrestrial chromite (EC) grains with typical ordinary chondritic composition have previously been documented from 467±1.6 Ma Ma lower Kundan (Middle Ordovician) strata. These finds most likely reflect a temporarily enhanced influx of ordinary chon- dritic matter, following the disruption of the L chondrite parent body i

Syftet med detta arbete är att undersöka om rullande bärighetsmätningar RWD är ett alternativ till fallviktsmätningar FWD i arbetet kring vägbärighet i vägprojekt. Bärighet beskrivs av Trafikverket som ” Den högsta last, enstaka eller ackumulerad, som kan accepteras med hänsyn till uppkomst av sprickor eller deformationer”. Det vill säga hur tunga fordon en väg eller en bro kan belastas med sThe purpose of this project is to investigate if RWD is an alternative to FWD in analysing road bearing capacity in road projects. According to the Swedish Transport Administration (Trafikverket), the definition of bearing capacity is described as “the maximum load whether single or cumulative, that can be accepted without causing cracking or deformation”. In other words, it refers to how muc

The complexity of systems for automatic control and other safety-critical applications grows rapidly. Computer software represents an increasing part of the complexity. As larger systems are developed, we need to find scalable techniques to manage the complexity in order to guarantee high product quality. Memory management is a key quality factor for these systems. Automatic memory management, or
