One of the most important measures to evaluate air quality is the presence of particles. Pin-on-disc tribometers are used to study airborne wear particles originating from different sliding contacts in a controlled laboratory environment. One important aspect when measuring airborne particles is to ensure isokinetic sampling conditions. Another important aspect is that the concentration and the pa
Kazuo Ishiguro's novel The Remains of the Day has garnered much discussion by literary theorists. Studies have primarily concerned themselves with the main character Mr Stevens and how he interacts with the complex situations around him. A frequent question is of his reliability, as there are indications that he does not give correct interpretations of events. This essay uses poststructuralist

I rättsvetenskaplig litteratur görs många och skilda uttalanden om bevisfrågor i tvister om tolkning av avtal. Bevisning och avtalstolkning har beskrivits som olika metoder för att avgöra vilket avtalsinnehåll som ska anses gälla mellan avtalets parter. Framförallt föreligger osäkerhet kring när bevisbörderegler och när avtalstolkning ska tillämpas för att lösa en ovisshet om avtalsinnehållet. I tIn Swedish legal literature, many and differing remarks have been made on matters of evidence in disputes concerning the interpretation of contracts. Production and sifting of evidence and contractual interpretation have been described as two different methods in Swedish law for deciding on what a contract should be considered to mean in the contractual relationship. Specifically, there is an unce

Syftet med vår studie är att undersöka hur fyra sångpedagoger beskriver hur de förhåller sig till och arbetar med personligt uttryck, härmning och förebildning samt genrekunskap och hur deras syn påverkar samverkan mellan begreppen och metoderna. Studien är av kvalitativ art och vi har använt oss av semistrukturerade frågor för att fånga pedagogernas tankar och åsikter. Sångpedagogerna säger sigThe purpose of our study is to investigate how vocal teachers describe how they relate to and work with personal expression, imitation, demonstration, knowledge about genre and how their views affect the interaction between these concepts and methods. The study is qualitative in nature and we have used semi-structured questions to capture the teachers’ thoughts and opinions. The vocal teachers s
I grupparbeten förekommer ofta ett fenomen som kallas social loafing - att gruppmedlemmar gör mindre än de ska. Denna uppsats har som syfte att undersöka attityder till en person som ägnar sig åt social loafing, och huruvida dessa attityder ändras beroende på vilken förklaring som sedan ges, samt om det finns ett samband mellan dessa attityder och personlighet och grad av need for cognition. MetodSomething that will often occur in group work is that group members do less work than they should; a phenomenon called social loafing. The purpose of this paper is to examine attitudes to a social loafer, and if those attitudes changes depending on which explanation is given, and also if there is a connection between the attitudes and personality and degree of need for cognition. The method that w
In biometric authentication protocols, a user is authenticated or granted access to a service if her fresh biometric trait matches the reference biometric template stored on the service provider. This matching process is usually based on a suitable distance which measures the similarities between the two biometric templates. In this paper, we prove that, when the matching process is performed usin
This document describes the methods and results of our Master’s Thesis, car- ried out at Axis Communications AB. A central problem with deep neural networks is that they contain a large num- ber of parameters and heavy computations. To cope with this, our idea was to split the network into chunks large enough that they require their own core, yet small enough to not violate our memory constraints.
Då oriktig uppgift lämnats till ledning för beskattning kan den uppgiftsskyldige riskera skattetillägg eller, i de svårare fallen, bli ansvarig för skattebrott. Ett skattetillägg utgår som huvudregel med ett pålägg om 40 % på den skatt som skulle ha erlagts och de vanliga straffrättsliga påföljderna, böter och fängelse, tillämpas vid skattebrott. Fängelsestraffet kan som högst bli sex år då oriktiIn cases where inaccurate information has been sent to tax authorities, the responsible person is risking surcharge or in worse cases making herself guilty of tax offence. A basic rule implies that a surcharge means an additional 40 % to the normal taxes and when it comes to cases of tax offence, the ordinary penalties of criminal law, fines and prison, are practiced. The highest prison sentence f
Rättspraxis från senare år har aktualiserat frågan vilken betydelse bl.a. köp-lagen och allmänna obligationsrättsliga principer kan få vid tolkning av entreprenadavtal. Syftet med uppsatsen är att undersöka om bedömningen av vad som utgör fel i entreprenad enligt standardavtalet ABT 06 kan påverkas av beställarens befogade förväntningar. Tre vägar för att ge ABT 06 ett sådant innehåll undersöks – In the wake of recent case law, the question has arisen what role the Swedish Sale of Goods Act and general principles of contract law may play in the interpretation of construction contracts. The purpose of this essay is to analyse whether the employer’s reasonable expectations can affect what is a defect according to the Swedish standard form contract ABT 06. Different ways of interpreting ABT 0
Arbetet syftar till att undersöka hur en domstol kan gå tillväga i bevisvärderingen av sakkunnigbevisning när det finns motstridig sådan och hur en sådan bevisvärdering förhåller sig till robusthetskravet. Robusthet är ett mått på sannolikheten att ett bevisfaktums stöd för ett tema förändras vid ytterligare utredning. Med utgångspunkt i en deskriptiv del av arbetet, där bevisrättsliga principer The thesis’ purpose is to examine how a court of law can evaluate expert testimony when both the prosecutor and the defense have called experts who give contrary statements. The examined evidence evaluation is thereafter analyzed with regards to the notion of robustness in evidence. Robustness is a way of measuring the probability that additional evidence will alter the probability based on the ex
A company willing to move abroad go through different set of rules starting with article 54 of the TFEU that consecrated the Freedom of Establishment.

The purpose of the thesis is to examine the gender perception of a project designer, project implementers, and beneficiaries in disaster risk reduction (DRR) projects in Cambodia. This thesis studies a specific DRR project called the Adaptive and Resilient Communities (ARCII) project of a Swedish non-government organization (NGO), and the local partner in Cambodia. The research questions are as fo
The aim of this study is to investigate whether crops are a mechanism through which drought affects terrorist activity. The theory suggests that drought can affect conflict if the group or country affected also is dependent on agriculture, experiences low economic development and is politically excluded. This study adds the perspective that decreased crop harvests, due to drought, can be understoo

Största delen av det svenska vägnätet består idag av belagd väg. Med det i åtanke så krävs det därför att vägarna vid sin anläggning respektive när underhållsåtgärd sker blivit väl dimensionerade samt blivit korrekt utförda. Under en tid i Sverige har Trafikverket med sitt dokument TRVK väg numera TRVINFRA styrt hur de statliga vägarna skall dimensioneras med sina tre dimensioneringsklasser. I dirThe largest part of the Swedish state roads are today paved. With this in mind it is therefore demanded when a road in question is constructed respectively when a maintenance measure is taken place that the dimensioning of the road from the start was done properly. Since a while back in Sweden it has been upon the Swedish Transport Administration to regulate with their document “TRVK Väg”, now TRV
