Product innovation in highly complex and technological areas, such as medical technology, puts high requirements on the innovation capability of an organisation. Previous research and publications have highlighted organisational issues and learning matters as important and necessary for the development of innovation capability. Action learning requires reflections of the ways things are carried ou
Plant-wide models of wastewater treatment (such as the Benchmark Simulation Model No. 2 or BSM2) are gaining popularity for use in holistic virtual studies of treatment plant control and operations. The objective of this study is to show the influence of ionic strength (as activity corrections) and ion pairing on modelling of anaerobic digestion processes in such plant-wide models of wastewater tr
Objective: To describe the average consumption of carbohydrate-providing food groups among study centres of the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC). Methods: Of the 27 redefined EPIC study centres, 19 contributed subjects of both genders and eight centres female participants only (men, n=13 031; women, n=22 924, after exclusion of subjects under 35 and over 74 years
Purpose An advanced 3/4PL-relationship in which the logistics service provider extended normal services by taking ownership of the goods during global distribution, is studied. We describe and analyze the approach to the legal rules a 3/4PL provider and its client company took in their contract, and present some remarks on the extent to which these contract solutions are legally sound. Design/me
Objective: To describe dietary protein intakes and their food sources among 27 redefined centres in 10 countries participating in the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC). Methods: Between 1995 and 2000, 36 034 persons, aged between 35 and 74 years, were administered a standardized 24-h dietary recall (24-HDR) using a computerized interview software programme (EPIC-S
Radial velocities measured from near-infrared (NIR) spectra are a potentially powerful tool to search for planets around cool stars and sub-stellar objects. However, no technique currently exists that yields NIR radial velocity precision comparable to that routinely obtained in the visible. We are carrying out an NIR radial velocity planet search program targeting a sample of the lowest-mass M dwa
Popular Abstract in Swedish Att packa ryggsäcken och resa till tropikerna, till vad man ofta kallar ‘tredje världen’ för en längre tids vistelse anses ofta vara av avsevärd betydelse för en individs identitet och framtida liv. För många resenärer upplevs resan som ett sätt att ta kontroll över den egna tiden och rörelsen, en kontroll som betraktas som en bristvara i de miljöer resenärerna kommer fThis work addresses the phenomenon of long-term, so-called ‘independent’ travelling, or backpacking, often to destinations described as the ‘third world’. It regards backpacker journeys as arenas for identity work, for expressing individuality and a ‘strong character’. Rather than merely being a parenthetic detour in time and space a backpacker’s trip to the tropics can be understood as a creative
Tractography is a visualization technique which reconstructs and models neural fibers in the white matter of the brain based on data from diffusion magnetic resonance imaging. It is already used locally to model parts of dominant fiber pathways but global methods are also emerging which aim to reconstruct all the brain fibers simultaneously. In this thesis we have attempted to improve the current
ABSTRACT The genetic characteristics of two soft tissue tumors were investigated in the present study: pleomorphic hyalinizing angiectatic tumor (PHAT) and solitary fibrous tumor (SFT). PHAT is a benign soft tissue tumor of uncertain cellular origin and lineage of differentiation. Although PHAT is still poorly characterized at the genetic level, one reported case has shown a potential genetic ove
På Danmarks Meteorologiska Institut har två index, TI3 och TI4, utvecklats i syfte att lokalisera riskområden för clear air turbulence (CAT). Indexen är ännu inte i operationellt bruk. Deras samband med andra parametrar i DMI-HIRLAM är inte känt och studeras här genom tre situationsstudier. CAT utgör en fara för flygtrafiken och bra prognoser av detta fenomen är nödvändigt. Att två olika index anvTwo indices, TI3 and TI4, have been presented at the Danish Meteorological Institute with the purpose to indicate clear air turbulence (CAT). The indices are not yet in operative use. The correlation between the indices and other parameters in DMI-HIRLAM is not known and is investigated in three case studies. CAT is a hazard to aviation and accurate prediction of CAT is important. The use of two i
Enligt 2 kap 2 § socialtjänstlagen (2001:453) har kommunen det yttersta ansvaret för att de som vistas i kommunen får det stöd och den hjälp som de behöver. Det innebär bland annat att vård och omsorg är en offentlig angelägenhet och ett offentligt ansvar. Trots det är den vård som utförs av anhöriga och andra närstående personer en betydande och, till följd av nedskärningar i den kommunala omsorgArticle 2 § 2 in the Social Services Act (2001:453) declares that the municipality has the ultimate responsibility to see to that the individuals in the municipality receive the support and help they need. This means that health care is a public concern and a public responsibility. Despite this regulation, the care provided by relatives is, as a result of cuts in municipal care, a significant and

I Alternativa övningsmetoder för musiker – del 1 presenteras olika sätt på vilka musikaliska färdigheter kan övas genom mentalisering och andra alternativa övningsmetoder som inte inkluderar användande av musikernas huvudinstrument. Den visar också hur dessa metoder kan kombineras. Här beskrivs även hur och varför dessa arbetssätt fungerar för musikalisk instudering individuellt och i en duo samt Alternative Methods of Practising Music – A study of practising without one’s main instrument for single musicians and small ensembles – Part 1 presents different ways in which musical skills can be practised through imagery and other alternative methods of practising that do not involve the use of the musicians’ main instruments. It also shows how these methods may be combined. Furthermore, it de
The German transition to renewable energies has so far been an example of a successful energy transition of a major economy. Even though this transition is criticized for being only a half-hearted solution, it is an important example of the attempt of a major economy to transit towards renewable energies and is therefore worth studying in its own rights. Thus, my aim in this thesis is the identifi
EC competition policy has different objectives, for instance to create the single market and keep it open and competitive. Article 81 EC provides an effective instrument in order to ensure that competition is not distorted. Article 81 EC catches and prohibits anti-competitive agreements, decisions and concerted practices but where the positive effects of an agreement outweigh the negative effects
Denna uppsats syftar till att undersöka vilka effekter ett införande av fotboja som ungdomspåföljd skulle innebära för de unga som i så fall skulle komma i fråga för påföljden. Utgångspunkt tas i det förslag på införande av fotboja för unga som återfinns i SOU 2012:34 Nya påföljder, där påföljden kallas för ungdomsövervakning. Inledningsvis tecknas en översiktlig bild av det rättspolitiska dagsläThe aim of this thesis is to examine the potential effects on youths of an introduction of electronic tagging into the Swedish penal system for juveniles. The proposition of such electronic tagging, presented in SOU 2012:34 Nya påföljder (“New sanctions”) by the name ungdomsövervakning (“youth monitoring”), acts as a starting point for the investigation of the expected effects on youths. First,
Vid utformandet av en konstitution ställs alltid frågan om vilket förhållande som bör råda mellan politik och juridik. Det är upp till varje rättssystem att reglera vilket inflytande domstolen ska ha på utformningen av lagstiftningen. När det kommer till lagstiftning kan förhållandet mellan judiciell aktivism från domstolens sida och demokrati beskrivas som en dikotomi där två vitt skilda metoder When drafting a Constitution, the relationship between politics and law must always be determined. It is up to each legal system to regulate what influence the court should have on the formulation of legislation. When it comes to legislation, the relationship between judicial activism and democracy, can be described as a dichotomy in which two widely different methods stand for different ideals. T
