Majoriteten av bostäderna på landsbygden i Ukraina är ineffektiva ur ett energiperspektiv, och de har ett bristfälligt inomhusklimat. En stor del av bostadsbeståndet i Ukraina är i stort behov av renovering eftersom det är föråldrat och energianvändningen är hög. Mer än 70% av bostadsbeståndet beräknas ha behov av ytterligare isolering, och energianvändningen är i genomsnitt 210–240 kWh / (m² · årThe majority of the dwellings in the rural areas of Ukraine are inefficient from an energy perspective, as well as having an inadequate indoor climate. A large part of the housing stock in Ukraine is in great need of renovation as it is outdated, and the energy use is high. More than 70% of the housing stock is estimated to be in need of additional insulation, and energy use is on average at 210–2

Financial advisors use paper-based questionnaires to retrieve the information useful to address the clients toward the right financial products and investment mix. In 2004 the European Parliament issued the MiFID (Markets in Financial Instruments Directive) that has the objective to increase competition and investor protection, and levels the playing field for market participants in investment ser

Gated Recurrent Unit (GRU) neural networks have gained popularity for applications such as keyword spotting, speech recognition and other artificial intelligence applications. Typically for most applications training and inference is performed on cloud servers, and the result are transferred to the power constrained device, e.g., an hearing instrument (HI). This approach has disadvantages such as

During the last decades the Swedish Child and Adolescent Psychiatric Services (CAP) has undergone major organizational changes. According to social research the changes are mainly due to new public management reforms. The aim of this study was to examine how social workers, i.e. psychiatry counsellors, experienced and coped with their working conditions within CAP. The method chosen for this study

Arbitration as a dispute settlement mean is widely used in the disputes on a carriage of goods by sea. As world trade of goods is mainly based on the carriage by sea services, the predictability and certainty regarding to the arbitration of shipping disputes is very important. The fundamental question is an existence of a valid arbitration agreement and accordingly whether or not there is a duty t

Detta arbetet har hanterat sex olika borrkärnor från den Prekambriska berggrunden i Ohio, USA. Denna berggrund är täckt med 800 – 5000 meter av Paleozoiska avlagringar och på grund av detta vet vi väldigt lite om den. Arbetet har gått ut på att karakterisera och datera dessa bergarter samt att via isotop analyser av syre och hafnium ta reda på bergarternas sammansättning och evolution. BorrkärnoThe Grenville orogen forms a major, continental scale, Mesoproterozoic orogenic belt along the present day eastern North American continent, from Labrador in the north to Mexico in the south. It is, however, mainly exposed in the northeastern parts of North America. Most of the orogen forms a basement to thick piles of Phanerozoic sedimentary rocks, and the geological evolution of the extensive co

Purpose: This master thesis aims at bridging the distinct notions of production and consumption by investigating how well-established consumption frameworks gain significance in the employment world. Therefore, we ask how Gen Y talents experience their jobs as commodities and act as consumers in the workplace as a reaction to this comodification. The purpose of this paper is to gain a general unde

Åtkomst till bevismaterial är avgörande för att förverkliga det straffrättsliga ansvaret. Idag är en stor del av detta bevismaterial digitalt och i syfte att skydda och hemlighålla sådan information används i allt större utsträckning kryptering. Kryptering, som enklast möjligt kan sägas utgöra den digitala versionen av att låsa in material i ett kassaskåp, innebär att man utan den särskilda dekrypBeing able to access evidence is crucial for the realisation of responsibility under criminal law. In today’s world, a large part of what can potentially be evidence is stored digitally. In order to protect and keep digital information confidential, encryption is becoming widespread. Encryption, put simply, can be said to be the digital version of locking material in a safe, and basically means th

In 1994 the Swedish Construction Code, BKR, was changed from being based on material to being based on function. This permitted constructing multi-storey buildings with a bearing framework made of wood, which had been prohibited since the end of the 19th century. There is now a growing in- terest of using wood as a construction material. In Växjö four seven-storey buildings, Limnologen, are under

Today there are various load bearing systems to choose from, concrete, steel, timber, or a combination of these. What determines the choice is usually the economy, which depends on the solutions in the different load bearing systems that will be made. Many of these choices are made based on previous projects and previous experience but do not always lead to the optimal solution. It is important to

The subject of this Master’s thesis is the management of electronic books at three Swedish public libraries. Current statistics about lending e-books have been gathered and supplemented by interviews with librarians and head librarians from the libraries in the study. Statistics and interviews are then analysed together with the library’s policy documents by using an institutional theory. The thes

In the global context of an ever-growing trend of automobility and all its drawbacks, cycling offers an environmentally and socially sustainable transport alternative. Copenhagen has become one of the best cities for cycling, and impressive advances in promoting this practice have raised their cycling share up to 41% of all trips to work/education. However, municipal cycling goals have been postpo

Den 27 april 2022 röstade riksdagen ja till att införa ett nytt brott i Brottsbalken, hedersförtryck; detta som ett led i att bekämpa hedersrelaterat våld och förtryck med kraft. Hedersrelaterat våld och förtryck kan föras tillbaka på kollektivt betingade hedersnormer, på grund av vilka individer riskerar att bestraffas om normerna ifråga inte efterlevs. Den springande punkten är kontextuella idéeOn the 27th of April 2022, the Swedish parliament voted in favour of introducing a new criminal offence in The Swedish Penal Code, called ‘honour-related oppression’ (sw. hedersförtryck). This action was taken as a part of a larger initiative to combat honour-related violence and oppression. Honour-related violence and oppression can be traced back to collectively conditioned honour norms, in whic

Idag har stora delar av världens befolkning tillgång till internet och många äger smarta telefoner och datorer. Den tekniska och teknologiska utvecklingen har skapat snabb och enkel tillgång till fakta, skapat möjligheter för människor att hålla kontakten med varandra på distans, skapat nya jobb och förenklat spridningen av information. I takt med utvecklingen har även användningen av sociala medi

The ongoing climate changes pose a serious threat to both societies and ecosystems globally. Intensification of extreme weather, floods in combination with heat waves and droughts are some of the challenges that require adaptable and sustainable solutions. Nature-based solutions (NBS) have been identified as a powerful tool for creating resilient and sustainable cities by integrating natural proce

The biogeography of speciation and what can be learned about the past mode of speciation from current biogeography of sister species are recurrent problems in evolution. We used a trait- and individual-based, eco-evolutionary model to simulate adaptive radiations and recorded the geographical overlap of species during and after evolutionary branching (speciation). We compared the spatial overlap a

We examined the effect of thermal shock on the germination of seeds of three conifers, two introduced (Pseudotsuga menziesii and Pinus ponderosa), and one native to Patagonia (Araucaria araucana). Previous research has suggested increased susceptibility to invasions in burnt areas, and therefore, the effect of simulated fire (heat) on seed germination in these native and introduced species was com

ims In atrial fibrillation (AF), a relation between electrocardiogram (ECG) fibrillatory wave amplitude and thrombus formation has been sought for long with conflicting results. In contrast, the possible relation between atrial fibrillatory rate obtained from the surface ECG and left atrial thrombus formation in patients with AF is unknown and was consequently evaluated in this study. Methods and
