By use of a lattice random walk algorithm we model diffusion in a many-body system and study the mean square displacement (MSD) for a tagged particle for different distributions of crowding particles, with particular emphasis on obtaining the correlation factor which contains the corrections to the mean-field result in such a system. The MSD in such a crowded environment is investigated and we fin

Studien undersöker om en riktad manipulation kan påverka en försöksdeltagare att aktivt korrigera sin responstid vid ett implicit test gällande fördomar. Manipulationen gavs som falsk feedback efter ett SPF test (Sorting Paired Features task) och hypotesen var att personer som erhåller ingruppsfavoritism som feedback främst korrigerar sin responstid för sin ingrupp medans personer som erhåller fee

This paper examines the potential decrease in Swedish green house gas emissions as a result of a more ecologically sustainable household consumption. The consumption changes modelled are; a vegan diet, reduced household electricity use and changed private traveling patterns. To do this, the Swedish version of the software programme Resource and Energy Analysis Program (REAP Sweden) is being use

Kan man förutspå en finanskris? De amerikanska ekonomerna Reinhart och Rogoff har gjort en studie1 över historiska finanskriser. I deras studie utgår de från fem olika ekonomiska variabler. I den här uppsatsen görs en utvärdering av de fem ekonomiska variablerna. Beroende på vilket värde variablerna hade åren 2004-2007, så är utgångspunkten att olika länder hade olika risk att drabbas av en finans

This thesis seeks to reveal the relationship of language and content in a Moroccan short story. These relationships are defined as such by pointing out single linguistic elements in the story’s language which reproduce a certain component of the story’s content. The main question hereby asks for the effect of the author’s language on the message itself – for, as the carrier of information, languag

Varumärkesrätten är territoriell, till skillnad från Internet, en av våra idag viktigaste marknadsplatser, som är globalt. Ett resultat av varumärkesrättens territorialitet och det faktum att rättigheterna till ett varumärke följer registrerings- eller inarbetningslandets gränser är att det är möjligt för ett varumärke att ägas av olika innehavare i olika länder. Vilket kan leda till problem när sTrademark law is territorial, contrary to one of today’s most important market places - the Internet, which is a global medium. Since the exclusive right to a trademark follows the boundaries of its country of registration or incorporation, it is possible for the same trademarks to be registered by different owners in different countries, something that can lead to problems on the Internet. The bo

This thesis analyzes the workings of the natural resource curse in Bolivia through a comparison between two periods with different institutional conditions and under dependency on tin and natural gas respectively. First the conditions for handling the resource curse are analyzed and a hypothesis is presented, suggesting that both periods are likely to have suffered from the natural resource curse

Background: Sandvik is in the middle of a great investment, the so called Green Field investment, which will imply a new factory for parts of their stone crush production. The facility is, at current situation, in engineering phase and the preparations are in focus and running at high speed. Purpose: The aim of this master thesis and final course in the education is to give an insight and valuable

Purpose The purpose of the study is to investigate what Procordia needs to do to increase the number of packaging ideas which leads to product launches, where the packaging is the unique selling point. Method The study has been conducted through a system approach because of the importance of a holistic view while making the study. The research method has been an abductive method due to the alterna

The aim of this master thesis is to explore which meanings that can be ascribed to knowledge organization in the field of library- and information science. This I do through studying two works that deal with this subject, namely Everything is Miscellaneous: The Power of the New Digital Disorder by David Weinberger from 2007 and Organization of Information by Arlene G. Taylor and Daniel N. Jourdrey

Den som utsätts för ett brott har med stöd av nödvärnsbestämmelsen i 24 kap 1 § BrB rätt att försvara sig. Självklart måste det finnas gränser för hur mycket våld som i sådana situationer får användas. Därför anges i bestämmelsen att våldet inte får ha varit ”uppenbart oförsvarligt”. Trots att man överskridit rätten till nödvärn kan man enligt svensk rätt gå fri från ansvar. Gärningen ska enligt A person who is being subjected to a crime has, according to Chapter 24 Section 1 Brottsbalken, a right to defend himself. Naturally the right to self-defence must have some kind of limit. Therefore the provision states that the violence used cannot be “clearly indefensible” Even though an offender has exceeded the right to self-defence he or she can still be excused according to Swedish law.

Vilka mangroverötter vill marina djur helst bo på? Stora delar av världens tropiska kuster är bevuxna av mangrove. Här vadar träden i vattnet och skjuter hela tiden ut nya luftrötter för att ta över ytterligare en bit hav. Inte så många skulle få för sig att snorkla på en sådan här plats. Gör man ändå det möts man, åtminstone i Karibien, av en explosion av färger och liv. Alger och mängder av fasEffect of habitat heterogeneity on marine epibiont assemblages associated with mangrove roots In coastal forests of red mangrove, prop roots extend into the seawater and serve as substrate for assemblages of algae and sessile marine organisms. These assemblages exhibit extreme variability on very small special scales – two neighbouring prop roots might be colonized by completely distinct assembla

This masters thesis is about the burden of proof and evidence requirement when a conflict occurs between an adviser and a receiver of an advice. The situations I will focus on are tax advices and financial advices. The most important source of information is court decisions, but relevant legislation will also be looked into. From jurisprudence I will find the underlying causes and use them to give

Abstract Manganese is a redox-sensitive trace element that is essential for humans and other organisms in order to develop and maintain health. Through sewage, manganese enters the oceanic environment from variety of anthropogenic sources, both domestic and industrial, and like every chemical, it can cause toxicity when it exceeds certain concentrations. The main objective of present study was to
