This master thesis presents a suggested Renovation Passport for two typical 1960s single-family houses. Following the recently approved Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EU 2024/1275A), all member states are to implement voluntary Renovation Passports by 2026, which will aid in reaching the 2050 goal of a decarbonized building stock. The aim of Renovation Passports is to provide long-ter
Flooding in oil palm plantations in Southeast Asia is a common problem. The oil palm’s habitable range is restricted to lowland equatorial areas, and the high rainfall and degraded landscapes associated with oil palm cultivation leaves oil palm prone to flooding. Flooding diminishes yields in mature palms, increases mortality in young palms, and disrupts operational processes. This reduces the ec
Today energy supply is moving towards more renewable, which brings challenges to the power grid. Intermittent power is difficult to predict and cannot be regulated in the same way as conventional power. If the grid is not dimensioned to handle the power peaks, the intermittent power can cause overload on the grid. Overload causes larger losses, can damage electrical components in the grid and/or a

Uppsatsen övergripande syfte är att undersöka proportionaliteten av direktinvesteringslagen mot bak-grund av dess potentiella konsekvenser för förvärv av privata aktiebolag i Sverige. Syftet uppfyllsThis thesis aims to review and comment on the new Swedish Act on Screen-ing of Foreign Direct Investments (2023:560) (in this summary referred to as the FDI Act) which entered into force on 1 December, 2023. The overall purpose of the thesis is to examine the proportionality of the FDI against the backdrop of its potential consequences on acquisitions of private limited liability companies in Swed
I och med den fria rörligheten i Europa så kommer utländska företag med största sannolikhet även framöver att utföra byggnadsarbeten i Sverige. Därför krävs fler studier om säkerhets- och arbetsmiljöarbetet på byggarbetsplatser med utländsk arbetskraft. Likaså behöver fler undersökningar göras om hur kommunikationen kan förbättras mellan svenska och utländska arbetstagare. God kommunikation är en Since the number of posted workers and companies on the Swedish labour market most likely won’t decrease in the foreseeable future, more studies on safety and working environment on construction sites with foreign workers will be needed. Likewise more studies on how the communication can improve between Swedish and foreign workers are required, since good communication is a determining factor when
I Sverige infördes lagstiftning i syfte att motverka insiderhandel i början av 1970-talet. Rättsområdet har därefter varit föremål för omfattande reformer. Den senaste reformen vidtogs med anledning av en ny EU-förordning och ett nytt EU-direktiv. Insiderlagstiftningen har kritiserats för att den har innehållit vaga rekvisit, medfört bevissvårigheter och för att den inte har varit tillräckligt effTo counteract insider trading, legislation was introduced in Sweden in the early 1970s. Ever since, the legal field has been subject to extensive reforms. The latest reform took place following a new EU regulation and a new EU directive. Insider legislation has been criticized because of its vague requisites, the difficulties in applying evidence, and because it has not been sufficiently effective
Perovskite research has quickly gone from non-existent to one of the biggest reseach areas in Photo- voltaics. There are still many questions to be solved regarding the stability, environmental impact, reproducible large area devices, efficiency and module fabrication cost of Perovskite Solar Cells, PSCs, before commercial up-scaling. Scientists all over the world are working towards solutions and
I betänkandet Se barnet och propositionen Ett stärkt barnrättsperspektiv i vårdnadstvister behandlade utredaren respektive regeringen bland annat ett förslag om att införa en bestämmelse om automatisk vårdnadsöverflyttning vid dödligt våld inom familjen. Enligt utredaren och regeringen är det bäst för barnet att den förälder som har dödat barnets andra förälder inte är vårdnadshavare eller har någIn preparatory work, the research officer and the government have considered a proposal about compulsory transfer of custody in the case of deadly violence within the family. According to the research officer and the government, it is in the best interests of the child that the parent who has killed the other parent of the child no longer is the legal guardian or has any contact with the child in
Scientific studies indicate that the effects of the ongoing climate crisis negatively affect and sometimes also threaten the built environment, humanity and nature in many ways. Cloudbursts and rising sea levels are two examples of such effects, which result in complex dilemmas and interesting challenges that planners and urban designers face within their field of work. These two effects are notic
Förbud mot karteller är likartade i de flesta länder. Om förbuden överträds är dock skillnaderna i de påföljder som kan utdömas, respektive i den eftergift som kan sökas och beviljas, värda att notera. Denna uppsats presenterar de påföljder för överträdelser av kartellförbud samt de eftergifter som erbjuds i EU, Storbritannien, Sverige och USA. Syftet med uppsatsen är att analysera vilka överväganWhile the cartel prohibition of most countries is quite similar, the differences in the sanctions imposed on cartel participants and the leniency available to such participants under national leniency programs are noteworthy. This thesis presents the sanctions for competition law infringements and the applicable leniency programs of the EU, the UK, Sweden and the U.S. The purpose of the thesis is
This thesis work concerns studies of two rare-earth-ions, praseodymium (Pr3+) and europium (Eu3+), doped into a yttrium orthosilicate (Y2SiO5) crystal for applications in quantum computing. The nuclear spin levels of these ions can have very long coherence times, up to several hours. Coherence can also be effectively transferred between the optical and hyperfine levels. These systems, therefore, h
Uttrycket "fastighetspaketeringar" avser ett förfarande där en fastighet inför en kommande försäljning ”förpackas” in i ett helägt dotterbolag vartefter andelarna i dotterbolaget avyttras till en extern köpare. Genom att nyttja olika delar av lagstiftningen kan både säljaren och köparen undvika beskattningskonsekvenser. I förarbetena identifierade lagstiftaren möjligheten att paketera vä“Packaging of properties” (Sw: paketeringar av fastigheter) refers to a procedure frequently used instead of a regular property transfer when a real estate is to be sold. The real estate is first transferred to a newly established and fully owned subsidiary. Later, the shares in the subsidiary are sold to the external buyer. By using different parts of the tax legislation this method can allow bot
While calls to reduce air travel have emerged in many high-income countries, Nepal, with only one international airport, is still striving to improve its air connectivity. In 2015, the government resumed its 1995 plan to build a second international airport near Nijgadh, a town in the southern plains. The project has since come under scrutiny from conservationists after plans emerged for extensive
Wheat bran is a by-product from the production of wheat flour. Nowadays wheat bran is mostly used as feed for animals, in the food and baking industry or it is simply burned in open air. However, wheat bran could be used in biorefineries for production of value-added products such as bioplastics, biofuels and chemicals as a substitute for fossil feedstocks as petroleum. Since wheat bran is an agri
Lysosomes are cell organelles in charge of degradation. Lysosomal membrane permeabilization (LMP) causes the leakage of cathepsins and other digestive enzymes into the cytosol from lysosomal cavities. This usually causes the initiation of cell death. LMP can be triggered by many stimuli and this could potentially be used in new therapeutic approaches for removing cancer cells. However, excessive L
The high penetration of wind power is increasing the intermittency and power variability into the existing power grid. This is forcing industries to look for optimal configurations in order to improve their systems performance and minimize these effects from the power production method. Studies show that there are different ways of reducing the power variability and therefore stabilize the energy
In the ocean, carbon export is driven by the biological carbon pump where organic matter is transported from the surface layer to the deep sea. The sinking particulate organic matter is mainly a product of phytoplankton aggregates and faecal pellets from zooplankton & fish, together also known as “marine snow”. Marine snow is continuously being degraded by microbial and zooplankton activities
