Orientation of Sticks and Spheres - Estimating Tensor Shape and Orientation Distribution using Diffusion NMR

The diffusion characteristics of water can be measured by using NMR methods. Specifically, the diffusion profiles in samples containing domains of water barriers are of major importance to be able to describe in applications such as diffusion tensor imaging or diffusion MRI-sequences. These sequences can be used to study the internal structure of samples of complex diffusion profiles. The diffusio

Rättssäkerhet vid våra domstolar - Nämndemän eller inte? En jämförelse mellan två rättssystem

”Juryn måste avstå från vittnets sista uttalande.” Ett sådant tillrättavisande har de flesta människor hört, oavsett om det rör sig om personer som arbetar i domstol, akademiker eller gemenman ute på landsbygden. Både det svenska- och det amerikanska juridiska rättssystemet verkar under uppfattningen att nämndemän och jurymedlemmar är villiga att följa domaren (rådmannens) instruktioner samt är ti“The jury is to disregard the witness’s last statement.” Such an admonition is likely familiar to most people whether they are legal professionals, academics or lay judges who only occasionally watch courtroom dramas. Both the Swedish and US legal system operates under the assumption that lay judges and jurors are willing to follow instructions given by the judge and are able to ignore inadmissibl

Effekter av vestibulärt applicerat elektriskt brus på uppmärksamhet i en normalpopulation

Uppmärksamhet är väsentligt i våra dagliga liv, och oförmåga att bibehålla uppmärksamhet kan leda till svårigheter i skolan eller på arbetsplatsen. Med utgångspunkt i den neuropsykologiska teorin Moderate Brain Arousal, som förklarar bristande uppmärksamhet med dopaminergisk obalans, ämnar denna studie använda den nya metoden Stokastisk Vestibulär Stimulans för att förbättra förmågan till uppmärksAttention plays an important role in our everyday lives, and inability to sustain attention can lead to difficulties performing tasks related to school or work performance. Using the theoretical framework of the Moderate Brain Arousal theory, according to which attentional problems originate in a dopamine imbalance, this study seeks to utilize the new technology of stochastic vestibular stimulatio

An Investigation of the perceived decision making criteria of virgin angels in Sweden

It has been discussed how important the contributions of informal investors in supporting entrepreneurs and developing startups. The market for informal venture capital is almost invisible source of financing for entrepreneurial ventures, which can explain the difficulty of finding these investors. However, what if the entrepreneur were able to find virgin angel, private individuals who want to un

Challenges and potential to improve airline safety and demonstrate resilience through monitoring

Rasmussen (1997) shows how it may be possible to go beyond an acceptable safety boundary, and if crossing the boundary is irreversible, an error or an accident may occur. Organizations reside as a specific operating point within three specific boundaries. The three boundaries are: the economic failure boundary, the unacceptable workload boundary, and the boundary of functionally acceptable perform

Guidance signs – for everyone? A study on the use and interpretation of the evacuation sign to route adapted for people with movement disabilities

The aim of this project is to evaluate the sign to evacuation routes that are adapted for people with a disability. The goal is to shed light on problem areas when the sign is used as well as in planning with evacuation signs. The sign was introduced to lead to evacuation points, evacuation elevators and routes to the outside adapted for people with disabilities. With help from experts, a literatu

Synthesis development towards new pyranoside-based β4GalT7 inhibitors

Proteoglycans (PG) are comprised of a core protein with a varying number of glycosaminoglycan (GAG) chains attached. Both PGs and GAG chains are involved in biological processes such as cell growth and dif-ferentiation. Both their structure and the expression of enzymes involved in their biosynthesis differ between cancer cells and healthy cells. Heparan sulfate(HS) and chondroitin sulfate/dermata

Stable increase of organic loading rate in anaerobic membrane bioreactors working at ambient temperature

Anaerobic processes are an interesting alternative to treat wastewaters instead of aerobic treatments as it allows recovery of energy with the produced biogas while removing organic matter. In the industry, lots of low-strength industrial wastewaters are available and unused for biogas production due to their low concentration of organic material and high volumes (slaughterhouse wastewaters, dairi

Towards a Business Model that promotes Sustainable Solutions

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to increase the understanding of how the business model of an architecture firm needs to adapt when the company decides to offer sustainable construction. This by identifying what characterizes the business model in an architecture firm that actively works with sustainable construction. When relevant, the study will also provide insights about the transformati

Water quality in the Apac, Mbale & Lira districts, Uganda : a field study evaluating problems and suitable solutions

Safe water is a widespread problem in developing countries. In 2004 The United Nations formed the Lake Victoria Region Water and Sanitation Initiative, which focuses on increasing the water quality and basic sanitation in both rural- and urban areas. The government of Uganda is a part of the initiative, since the quality of the drinking water in the country persists to be a widespread problem. In

The Role of Corporate Responsibility in Transitioning Countries. A Case Study on Workplace Inequality in Myanmar.

The present paper examines contributions of corporate responsibility to respect human rights —outlined in the United Nations Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights— to eradication of the problem of workplace discrimination in Myanmar, a developing country in Southeast Asia undergoing a transition from an authoritative military rule to a civil democratic government. Based on the analysis o

Radon i Lunds kommun

Radon är en radioaktiv gas och farligt för människors hälsa. Strålningen kan orsaka allvarliga sjukdomar såsom lungcancer. Miljömålet “God bebyggd miljö“ är ett av de 16 nationella miljömålen i Sverige och säger bl.a. att innan år 2020 ska det inte finnas några bostäder med högre radonhalt än 200 Bq/m3 luft. Miljöförvaltningen i Lund har vid ett flertal tidigare tillfällen försökt att kartlägga boRadongas is radioactive and dangerous for the human health. The radiation can cause serious diseases such as lung cancer. "Good built environment" is one of the 16 national environmental goals in Sweden which says that before year 2020 there must be no dwellings with radon concentrations over 200 Bq / m3 air. The environmental governance has on several occasions before attempted to ident

Analysis of the Determinants of the Fertility Decline in Southern Africa

Abstract: Southern Africa has already since the onset of the fertility transition recorded levels that are remarkably low in comparison with the other sub-Saharan regions. Theories suggest that socioeconomic development can explain a lot of the inter-regional fertility variations. Despite clear indications of higher socioeconomic development there are also question marks attached to the severe AID

Att göra Lean till en organisations DNA - En studie av två svenska tjänsteverksamheters Lean-implementering

Lean implementeras idag i allt större utsträckning inom tjänstesektorn vilket ökat efterfrågan på kunskap i detta sammahang. Inom forskningen efterfrågas det hur tjänsteföretag i verkligheten använder sig av Lean, hur de går tillväga och vilka effekter det medför. Samtidigt visar tidigare forskning att många Lean-implementeringar i verkligheten misslyckas, till följd av att Lean förstås och anamma
