It is not uncommon that states repress and oppress its citizens by exerting violence upon them. Sometimes this violence leads to cases where states abuse their power. This abuse can lead to terrible consequences which several historical and contemporary cases shows. When analyzing state violence, it ought to be put in the context of violence from non-state actors, which often eclipse the violence
This paper valuates two different financial contracts, the European Call and the Spread option using the Fourier transform. In the European Call case the underlying asset is modelled by the geometric Brownian motion stochastic differential equation. All necessary conditions in order for the transform to exists are examined and it turns out that the payoff needs to be scaled by an exponential facto
Being able to detect nucleated cells in human blood is a very important part of health care. CellaVision has machines which can automatically detect cells in blood samples from peripheral blood instead of using manual microscopy. Sometimes it is not enough to only investigate the peripheral blood but also samples from the bone marrow. The bone marrow is different from the peripheral blood and it i
Byggbranschen står för 33% av Sveriges årliga energianvändning. Genom att göra nödvändiga förändringar så som att renovera befintliga byggnader på ett miljösmart sätt kan energi- och miljöbesparingar göras med mer eller mindre enkla medel. I denna studie, som initierades av Trelleborgs Energi AB, undersöktes hur deras kontorsbyggnad kunde bli så innovativ, hållbar och energieffektiv som möjligt. SThe construction industry is responsible for 33% of Sweden’s annual energy consumption. Important environmental and energy savings can be done by renovating already existing buildings with a climate smart mindset. This study was executed on behalf of Trelleborg Energi AB to investigate how their office building can become as innovative, sustainable and energy efficient as possible. The study was a
Världens första höghastighetsbana byggdes mellan Tokyo och Osaka år 1964. Sedan dess har länder i framförallt Asien och Europa också infört höghastighetståg och just nu pågår arbetet med höghastighetsjärnväg i Sverige. Den kommer att trafikeras av höghastighetståg med en hastighet upp till 320 km/h. Det är beslutat att järnvägen ska utformas med fixerade spår vilket är den vanligaste lösningen förAt present there is an ongoing investigation of a Swedish high-speed rail. It is decided that the railway will be constructed with a slab track and mainly be founded on an embankment. There is an uncertainty in how to conduct stability and settlement calculations for the embankment and subgrade and how dynamic effects should be considered. The present Master’s thesis aims to analyze appropriate so
The soot emissions from diesel engines are much higher in transient operation than during steady state operation. In this thesis, a method for estimating the soot mass flow emission in transient drive cycles is presented. The proposed method uses stationary emission maps in combination with step responses. Bandpass filters are used to filter the engine torque/power to provide transient detection a
In this work, extraction of antioxidant carotenoids from Haematococcus pluvialis microalga, has been studied combining pressurized liquid extraction (PLE), using hexane and ethanol as extracting solvents, and analytical techniques such as thin layer chromatography (TLC) and HPLC with DAD. The effect of the extraction temperature (50, 100, 150 and 200 °C) and the polarity of the solvent have been s
The purpose of this study was to examine domestic adoptions in Sweden, and also compare the Swedish adoption system to the Canadian adoption system. I wanted to find out why there are so few domestic adoptions in Sweden, and how it has changed over the years. I also wanted to know why there is such a large difference between Sweden and Canada regarding adoptions. I interviewed five social workers
Can deterrence work against a rogue state? The following analysis is done in order to test the validity of deterrence theory upon a rogue actor, and if necessary, to try and develop it further. Whereas the security strategy proved successful against the Soviet Union because of mutual assumptions of rationality, it is questionable if it works towards new challenges today. The behavior of rogue stat
Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: I det svenska landskapet saknas många av de naturliga våtmarker som fanns innan våtmarkerna dränerades för att göra plats till åkermark. Idag försöker man rekonstruera eller anlägga helt nya våtmarker i Sverige då främst i odlingslandskapet. Detta görs inte enbart för att ge tillbaka en del av det naturliga landskapet och öka den biologiska mångfalden, våtmarkerWetlands are constructed for uptake of nutrients in areas that have exceeded critical loads of nitrogen and also for promoting biological diversity. Wetlands have not only positive effects, they have some negative environmental effects as they emit the greenhouse gases methane (CH4), carbon dioxide (CO2) and nitrous oxide (N2O). There are different ways to construc
To circumvent the detrimental effects of large-volume injection with fixed-loop injector in modern supercritical fluid chromatography, the feasibility of performing multiple injection was investigated. By accumulating analytes from a certain number of continual small-volume injections, compounds can be concentrated on the column head, and this leads to signal enhancement compared with a single inj
Cassava peels were pre-treated with alkali, enzyme and in sequential combination of alkali and enzyme, and used for production of bioethanol or biogas, or both (in sequence, bioethanol followed by biogas). The Biogas Endeavour and Automatic Methane Potential Test Systems were used for production of bioethanol and biogas, respectively. The bioethanol yield and volumetric productivity achieved with
