When the Torrey Canyon ran aground in 1967, there was no international regime covering liability for oil pollution damage. This changed with the adoption of the 1969 Civil Liability Convention for Oil Pollution (CLC) and the 1971 International Convention on the Establishment of an International Fund for Compensation for Oil Pollution Damage (Fund Convention). While torts are mainly fault based, th
Zirconium alloys are widely used in the nuclear industry because of their high strength, good corrosion resistance and low neutron absorption cross-section. Zirconium has a strong affinity for hydrogen, however, and if hydrogen concentration builds up, the material will gradually degrade. In one class of such hydrogen caused degradation, called hydride induced embrittlement, hydrogen chemically re
Popular Abstract in English Internal combustion engine plays an important role in our society. In our daily life, we use them to drive cars, trucks, ships, generating electricity and heat, and in many other applications. Modern internal combustion engines fall into three catalogues: gasoline engines, diesel engines and low temperature compression ignition engine. They are developed to achieve highThis thesis deals with direct numerical simulation (DNS) of low temperature combustion in internal combustion engine related conditions. In particular, HCCI (homogeneous charge compression ignition), SACI (spark assisted ho-mogeneous charge compression ignition) and PPC (partially premixed charge combustion) were investigated to gain deeper understanding on the details of the combustion process. I
Abstract This study aims to study the policies and measures adopted in order to attract FDIs to the extractive industry and to maximize their effects on the Albanian economy. Emphasis is put on fiscal policy and the allocation of tax revenues received from FDIs in the extractive industry. To conduct the study I have used theories explaining the reason behind FDI decisions and the mainstream theori
In this thesis the relationship between socioeconomic equality and democratic consolidation is evaluated through a case study of Bolivia. The country is one of the poorest in the Latin American region and has suffered a large degree of socioeconomic inequality. The country ended the transition to democracy in 1985 and has since then met challenges in consolidating the democracy and create stable p
The transport sector accounted for 37% of global CO2 emissions from end-use sectors in 2021. For the transport- and road freight sector to contribute to emissions reduction targets while still meeting the foreseen increase in transport demands, decarbonization will play a key role. This study focus on battery-electric heavy-duty trucks and the objective is to provide an overview of policy instrume
The concept using inside information has its origin in Directive 2003/6/EC on insider dealing and market manipulation, Market Abuse Directive. The Market Abuse Directive requires Member States to prohibit and penalize market abuse. The expression using inside information is found in the prohibition on insider dealing in Article 2.1 in the Directive. This article requires Member States to prohibit Begreppet utnyttjande av insiderinformation har sitt ursprung i direktiv 2003/6/EG om marknadsmissbruk, MmD. MmD ålägger medlemsstaterna att förbjuda och beivra marknadsmissbruk. Uttrycket utnyttjande av insiderinformation återfinns i förbudet mot insiderhandel, som i huvudsak regleras i artikel 2.1 i MmD. Artikel 2.1 föreskriver att medlemsstaterna ska förbjuda en person som förfogar över insider
The digital and technical developments within the archive community during the last decades reflect how changes has been made in the conditions of preservation and curation of archive material.This has also raised questions concerning the approach to digital and web based documents within the archival community. The digital and technical developments had a significant impact on the social platform

North Sámi has a class of derived verbs called sensive verbs. Descriptively, these verbs are formed by adding the suffix /ʃ/ to an adjectival or nominal base, and the resulting verb means ‘find [object] (too) ADJECTIVE/NOUN’. In this paper it is argued that the sensive verbs do not involve any psychological verb, and the suffix is not specified as “sensive” in the lexicon. Rather, the suffix is sp
The so-called ‘Resource curse’ has manifested in several resource rich countries in the African continent. When Ghana found oil in 2007, the finding was consequently accompanied by high hopes of economic growth and increased social welfare (blessing), but also fear that they oil would increase corruption and political patronage (curse). The resource curse literature identifies extensive checks and

In Krisis, and in many of the preparatory papers for his last published work, Edmund Husserl repeatedly declares his allegiance to the Enlightenment, but, at the same time, always expresses his misgivings about its concrete purport. Like Horkheimer and Adorno, but for somewhat different reasons, he thus succumbs to what Ferrone has termed the philosopher’s conception of the Enlightenment, as oppos
Stochastic dierential equations (SDEs) proved a fundamental mathematical tool to model dynamics subject to randomness and are nowadays a necessary instrument in e.g. nancial mathematics, neuronal modelling, population growth and physiological modelling. In realistic applications SDEs parameters are unknown quantities that have to be estimated from available data. However inference for SDEs is non-
In the Lutheran tradition, of which the Church of Sweden is part, the spoken and written word often gets an automatic priority over the experience and perception of artistic expression. As a result, the discourse on the role of aesthetics in liturgical formation has come second to the ongoing discussion about the linguistic and semantic meaning of texts. This thesis wants to contribute to a renewe
The audiobook is a format that has invaded the Swedish book market. Through it’s format it has made literature available to more people, just like the paperback did when it was first introduced on the market. By simply having the book on your phone, it’s easier than ever to take it with you and can be played while the listener does other things, such as traveling, cleaning or performing other acti
Public health care systems face major challenges. The burden of resource constraints and continuous demands of rationings urge decision makers in countries like Sweden, Norway and the UK to find new financial solutions. One proposal that has been put forward is co-payments. In this presentation we explore ethical problems associated with co-payments in publicly funded health care systems.
