To run a Diesel engine in Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition (HCCI) mode has proved to be a highly promising approach towards reduced engine-out emissions of NOx and particulate matter. A crucial issue when utilizing HCCI is the degree of charge homogeneity that is required to achieve the desired low temperature combustion. A very well mixed charge can be created through the use of traditiona

Safety culture may be seen as the oil necessary for an efficient safety management system. During the work in HILAS SMS task force some weaknesses in the use of safety culture in practice were identified. A work stream was initiated to identify further weaknesses and suggest remedies for them. The objective of this paper is to discuss some of the weaknesses and propose mitigations. A major suggest

The true incidence of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is largely unknown, because the few longitudinal studies performed have used diagnostic criteria no longer recommended by either the European Respiratory Society or the American Thoracic Society (ATS).We studied the incidence and significance of airflow limitation in a population-based geriatric sample using both an age-dependent predicte

Aim: Tumour stage is the most important prognostic factor in colon cancer. The aim of this study was to examine the impact on the quality of pathology by the use of a standardized PAD protocol. Method: A standardized PAD protocol for colorectal cancer was developed and all patients subjected to colon resection due to adenocarcinomas between 2004 and 2006 were analyzed concerning lymph node status,

Plastic and reconstructive surgery has had a long history with international humanitarian efforts. As the field of global surgery continues to gain momentum in academic centers throughout the world, the role of the surgical subspecialist in the public health infrastructure of low-resource communities has also begun to gain a new sense of wonder and importance. Arthur Barsky, Jr was arguably one of

Objectives: Due to the increased diagnosis of prostate cancer at earlier stages and the overall increased use of hormone therapy, also in earlier disease stages, many patients will receive long-term hormone therapy. Therefore, the timing of initiating hormone therapy and the type of hormone therapy have become crucial items in the appropriate management of patients with prostate cancer. in additio

OBJECTIVES: Long-term, low-dose macrolide therapy is effective in the treatment of chronic rhinosinusitis. It is believed that macrolide antibiotics produce this benefit through an anti-inflammatory effect. In this study, the effect of clarithromycin treatment on the expression of transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta and the key pro-inflammatory nuclear transcription factor, NF-kappa B, was exami

Industrialismens frammarsch och utvecklingen mot vidgad näringsfrihet gav arbetsgivare en stark position på arbetsmarknaden. 1898 gick arbetstagarsidan ihop och bildade Landorganisationen, LO. Svenska Arbetsgivarföreningen, SAF, bildades kort därefter som motvikt till LO, och därmed skapades större balans mellan arbetsgivare och arbetstagare. Det första kollektivavtalet mellan parterna, decemberkoIndustrialism's advancement and the development towards a wider freedom of trade gave employers a strong position in the labor market. In 1898 worker organizations joined forces and formed The Swedish Trade Union Confederation (LO). Shortly after this the employer organizations answered by forming The Employers Federation (SAF). Thereby a stable balance was created between the employer and wor

Hur rättfärdig är icke lagen: den förbjuder såväl den rike som den fattige att sova under broarna och tigga bröd. Detta kända citat av författaren Anatole France illustrerar inledningsvis en övergripande del av mitt syfte med denna uppsats. Lagen ska i sin utformning som utgångspunkt vara generell, förutsägbar och lika för alla – ändock drabbar den oundvikligen olika (grupper) av befolkningen påThe law, in its majestic equality, forbids the rich as well as the poor to sleep under bridges, to beg in the streets, and to steal bread. This famous quotation by the author Anatole France will serve as an introduction to a major part of the scope of this essay. The law shall in its form be general, foreseeable and applied equably in regard to all citizens – despite this, the law strikes differ

Villa homes are designed to be able to tackle many injured leading factors. Today's villa homes are planned and projected by many years of experience in villa construction. No matter how well you planned the project planning and execute it, an injury can occur. Moisture and water damage can occur from a variety of factors, both from the outer- and inner factors. The external factors may be in

We live in a time where there is an increasing focus on the environment, in terms of classification of vehicle emission standards and environmental zones. Along with this and the fierce market competition that exists, it is odd that a greater effort has not been made in making material-transport more effective by renewing the tarmac on our road-network. The purpose of this report is to show the sa

Denna uppsats undersöker närmare det forum som sociala medier är för organisat-ioner. Genom en fallstudie på Findus och hästköttskandalen där diskursanalys, samt intervjuer varit metodvalen har vi kunnat se att samhällsdiskurser och orga-nisationers informationshantering är stora faktorer vid negativ ryktesspridning. Resultat visar att framförallt diskursanalys kan vara ett starkt verktyg till att

This project started in the complex field of silence and ended up in an even more complex area; emotions. In silence we experience our emotions the most, and in order to appreciate the sometimes so fearful silence we need to relate to our emotions and understand them. If we see, accept and learn to relate to them, the silence will be much more serene and delicious. During the process I used myself

Straffreduktioner vid flerfaldig brottslighet och straffskärpningar vid återfall reglerar båda situationen då en person gjort sig skyldig till flera brott. Skillnaden är att vid straffreduktioner behandlas brotten inom ramen för samma rättegång och vid återfallet har ett eller flera brott först behandlats vid en rättegång och efter verkställandet av det straffet begås ett nytt brott som behandlas A ”penal reduction” in the case of multiple criminality and more severe sanctions due to a relapse into crime both regulates the case when a person has committed multiple crimes. The difference between the two regulations is that in the case of ”penal reductions”, the crimes are covered during the same trial, while in the case of a relapse, the convict has first been sentenced during one trial and

En god informationsgivning är en förutsättning för en välfungerande och effektiv värdepappersmarknad. Utan tillgång till fullständig och relevant information kan marknadens aktörer inte göra en korrekt värdering av potentiella investeringar, vilket kan skada allmänhetens förtroende för marknaden och minska intresset av att investera på densamma. Den aktiemarknadsrättsliga regleringen ställer därföThe disclosure of information is a prerequisite for a well-functioning and efficient financial market. Without access to complete and relevant information, market participants will not be able to properly evaluate potential investments. This could in turn damage public confidence in the market and reduce the interest in investing in it. The stock market law regulation therefore places strict deman

This thesis is a text analysis regarding the processing concession of Kallak K nr 1, an iron ore deposit located in Sweden outside of Jokkmokk. On March 22, 2022, processing concession was granted the Jokkmokk Iron Mines AB. The process of reaching this decision has been long and fought with great resistance by the Sami people, who today use the area for reindeer herding. This thesis uses the mate

I svenska domstolar använder sig domarna av fri bevisvärdering vilket innebär att domarna inte är bundna av regler eller metoder för hur de värderar bevisning. Vissa principer, som omedelbarhetsprincipen, sätter upp gränserna för bevisvärderingen men i övrigt är denna fri. Det är även tillåtet att använda sig av så kallade erfarenhetssatser. Med erfarenhetssats avses att domarna har kunskap om etIn Swedish courts, the court use free evaluation of evidence, which means that the judges are not bound by rules or methods for how they evaluate evidence. Certain principles, such as the principle of immediacy, set the limits for the evaluation of evidence, but otherwise this is free. It is also permitted to use so-called common knowledge theorems. A common knowledge theorem is the knowledge of a

När föräldrar inte själva kan komma överens i frågor om vårdnaden om, boendet för eller umgänget med sitt barn, kan frågorna tas upp hos socialtjänsten eller i domstol. När beslut om barn ska fattas, ska barnets bästa vara den slutligt bestämmande faktorn, en aspekt i bedömningen om barnets bästa är barnets behov av en nära och god kontakt med båda föräldrarna. En (radikal)feministisk utgångspunkWhen parents are unable to agree on questions about custody of, housing for or visitation of their child, the questions can be sorted out with help from the social services or in court. In all decision-making regarding children, the best interests of the child should be the final determining factor, i.e. the child's need for a close and good contact with both its parents.
