Idrottens våldsamma dimension - En straffrättslig studie om ansvarsbefriande verkan i samband med idrottsutövning

En bärande ståndpunkt i denna studie är att det råder brist på vägledande prejudikat inom idrottsvåld. Rättsläget är i flera avseende oklart bland idrottsutövare och rättsväsendet, inte minst vad gäller förutsebarheten. Det framgår tydligt att det föreligger mycket osäkerhet och irritation bland såväl jurister som idrottsutövaren gällande idrottsvåld. Frågor som de flesta vill ha besvarat är vart

In addition, this study also examined gender differences. The study is based on se

Event Detection and Predictive Maintenance using Component Echo State Networks

With a growing number of sensors collecting information about systems in indus- try and infrastructure, one wants to extract useful information from this data. The goal of this project is to investigate the applicability of Echo State Net- work techniques to time-varying classification of multivariate time series from primarily mechanical and electrical systems. Two relevant technical problems are

Is it enough to ‘add homosexual men and stir’? The significance of materialism in HIV prevention in the Global South.

Given the HIV/AIDS peak in the 1980s, Uganda has been hailed as a success story after having dramatically decreased the infection rate in the 2000s. However, the country’s HIV/AIDS rate has started to increase again in recent years. At the same time, homosexual males represent a key population whose needs must be taken into account if the pandemic is to be eradicated. Therefore, the thesis focuses

What does Daesh want you to know?

Acknowledged from the existing literature regarding Daesh’s propaganda, the focus has mostly been on their propaganda on social media, such as Facebook and Twitter. However, I argue that a gap regarding Daesh’s propaganda is the lack of studies on Daesh’s online-magazine Dabiq and this thesis aim to fill this gap. I argue that Daesh’s way of arguing and framing their arguments are the key to under

3D geologic subsurface modeling within the Mackenzie Plain, Northwest Territories, Canada

Three-dimensional (3D) models are widely used within the geosciences to provide scientists with conceptual and quantitative models of the earth’s subsurface. As a result, 3D geologic modelling is a growing field, such that scientific research often cannot keep up with technical advancements. Literature often shows conflicting results with respect to which interpolation algorithms produce the best

Servicesektorn i litteraturen. En studie i samtida arbetarlitteratur.

I denna uppsats undersöks hur servicesektorn framställs i litteraturen inom ramen för den samtida arbetarlitteraturen. Förklaring ges också till varför servicesektorn fått en framträdande roll i litteraturen under senare år. Tre böcker, "Jag ska egentligen inte jobba här" av Sara Beischer, "Kallskänken" av Jenny Wrangborg och "Tjänster i hemmet" av Marie Hållander, an

Effektivisering av kravställning för Miljöbyggnad

Syftet med studien var att ta reda på hur det i produktionen säkerställs och kontrolleras att betyget för Miljöbyggnad uppnås, samt hur den processen kan effektiviseras och tydliggöras. Syftet innefattade även att ta reda på hur synen, kommunikationen och medvetenheten om Miljöbyggnad ser ut i produktionen, samt hur denna process kan förbättras. Att kunna bidra till ett grönt och hållbart samhäll

Likhetsprincipen och geralklausulerna: en del av minoritetsskyddet i ABL

Sammanfattning Denna uppsats kommer att behandla två regler i ABL vilka finns till i syfte att skydda de ägare i ett aktiebolag som utgör minoritet. Regelverket kring skydd för minoriteter i aktiebolagslagen är tämligen omfattande och jag har därför valt att begränsa mitt arbete till att endast fokusera på två av dessa; likhetsprincipen och generalklausulerna. Det är idag omstritt hur dessa två reAbstract This paper will address the two rules in the Companies Act (2005: 551), which are added in order to protect the owners of a corporation as a minority. The regulations concerning the protection of minorities in the Companies Act is quite extensive and I have therefore chosen to limit my work to only focus on two of these; the principle of equality and the general clauses. Today, it is deba

The fiscal impact of population aging in Sweden: 2015-2060

This study analyses the fiscal impact of population aging in Sweden from 2015 to 2060. We consider the three main areas of public spending in the demographic context: education, health care and pension. A separate analysis is performed for each of the three alternative macroeconomic scenarios, which are the status quo, the pension reform and the health care reform. Our results indicate that the ol

Does clothianidin affect solitary bee foraging time and reproduction?

Bekämpningsmedel kan påverka könsfördelning hos vilda bin Neonikotinoider ingår i många av världens mest använda insektsbekämpningsmedel. Olycksbådande resultat från ett flertal vetenskapliga studier har gjort att man nu börjat ifrågasätta de effekter neonikotinoider har på nyttoinsekter som honungsbin, vilda bin, humlor samt andra harmlösa insekter. I denna studie undersöker man hur en vanlig ar
