Bus rapid trasit kan beskrivas som ett högkvalitativt bussystem med hög kapacitet, separerade körfält, signalprioritering och stationsliknande hållplatser. Det finns idag ingen tydlig definition vad svensk BRT är. Ett fenomen som är lätt att identifiera då alla svenska BRT-koncept skiljer sig markant åt mellan varandra. Men frågan är, vilken kvalitet håller svensk BRT och hur skiljer den sig mot iBus Rapid Transit, in short BRT, is a transport mode that has the potential to support a modal shift. In Sweden, there has been a growing interest in BRT, particularly in smaller to medium-sized cities. The challenge lies in the absence of a clear definition of how this kind of system should be designed in a Swedish context. Consequently, there have been efforts to create guidelines and assessment

När man färdas genom Sverige går det enkelt att notera att en stor del täcks av skog, närmre bestämt ungefär 70%. Flera av våra viktiga ekosystem med höga naturvärden finns bland denna grönska. Mycket skog innebär även många skogsägare som har olika behov. Därför behövs även olika typer av naturskydd för att hitta något som passar alla. Människan är del av ekosystemen, och vi skulle inte klara osThe European union and the Convention on biological diversity require 30% of all land to be protected by 2030, stressing the necessity for increased nature conservation. To meet the requirements different forms of protection are needed. Thus, nature conservation agreements (NCA) relevant for further exploration, as they are not used in as large of an extent as other nature conservation types. Thi

This entails consolidating volumes from several existing facilities, and another company named Company Rho, when setting up a distribution centre configuration. Company Pie wants a second set of eyes to create a configuration, including operations, and de

Past research on the determinants of voter turnout have focused on the socioeconomic conditions of electorates, institutional environments and electoral systems of countries. A neglected area of research has been the relationship between voter turnout and welfare expenditure. This paper examines the relationship between voter turnout and welfare expenditure within and between 31 OECD member countr

Event generators are useful for simulating collision experiments in high-energy particle physics. In the event generator PYTHIA 8, parameters may be varied to compare competing models against experimental data. It is then beneficial to employ reweighting techniques to explore the results for multiple parameter values with only one simulation. This study aims to develop and implement a reweighting

Att filma blodflöden med MR-kamera kan vara ovärdeligt för patienter med ett enkammarhjärta. Denna studie visar att magnetkamera kan bli ett värdefullt verktyg för att övervaka och hantera möjliga komplikationer hos barn födda med hjärtfel, vilket i sin tur kan förbättra deras hälsa och livskvalitet. Barn som föds med ett defekt hjärta där en av hjärtats sidor inte funkar som det ska, behöver ofThe treatment for children born with only one functioning ventricle culminates in a Fontan procedure, which aims to create a total cavopulmonary connection (TCPC), i.e. where the superior and inferior vena cava has been connected to the pulmonary arteries, bypassing the right atrium and ventricle. The blood flow to the right and left lung plays an important part in preventing pulmonary arterioveno

Övergödning är ett utbrett problem i alla Sveriges sötvattendrag, men störst är problematiken i södra Sverige. En kostnadseffektiv åtgärd för att få kontroll på övergödningen är att anlägga miljödammar och våtmarker i anslutning till åkermark. Dessa fångar upp och binder fosfor och kväve från gödselläckage innan det når ut i andra större vattendrag. För att dessa våtmarker ska göra nytta i längdenRegulations regarding management of dredged sediment from the maintenance of artificial ponds and other wetlands are ambiguous. Currently in Sweden, compliance with guidelines concerning pollutants is often prioritized over the climate impact associated with the transportation during disposal of these sediments. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the applicability of current guidelines to dre

Quantum metrology is a rapidly growing field of quantum information science that aims to exploit the counter-intuitive properties of quantum systems to estimate physical quantities with better-than-classical precision. The field primarily deals with the problem of estimating system parameters, which may or may not directly be associated to an observable. A prominent result of quantum metrology is

The purpose of this research paper is to explore and gain a deeper understanding of consumer attitudes towards brands that embrace minimalism as the design aesthetic for their logos, uncovering the nuances and intricacies of this trend.

Understanding the pH sensitivity of proteins and enzymes across intracellular compartments is crucial for fundamental research. Lizatović et al. [1] aimed to design a peptide incorporating a specific amino acid to form a hexamer structure and lacking it to form a pentamer structure. Unexpectedly, two distinct structures emerged based on pH. At pH 6, a hexamer structure formed, albeit with a surpri
