Attefallshus och fastighetsbildning

Är det möjligt att avstycka ett bostadshus som är uppfört utan bygglov och i strid med detaljplan, som kallas komplement och som omfattar en area om endast 25 kvm? År 2014 gjordes en lagändring som gav en fastighetsägare möjlighet att i nära anslutning till ett befintligt bostadshus uppföra just en sådan byggnad som komplement till det förstnämnda. Byggnaden har fått populärnamnet attefallshus eftThe Swedish legislation for land use planning and building development has been central in several amendments the last few decades. By different changes in approach, legislators have tried tightened rules as well as eras with more liberal regulations to adjust problems with housing shortages and urban planning. In 2014, a new amendment made it possible to construct a 25 square meter building in ad

Öppen offentlig data - Hinder och utmaningar som offentlig sektor upplever i samband öppen datapublicering

Den offentliga sektorn genererar och tillhandahåller stora mängder data. Denna data menade EU-kommissionen redan på 90-talet kunna leda till stora ekonomiska och sociala värden om den kunde utnyttjas för kommersiella ändamål. Detta värde skulle realiseras genom det s.k. PSI-direktivet, vilket ledde till att Sverige 2010 implementerade sin första PSI-Lag. Inom ramen för PSI-data har agendan om öppe

Människan – den svagaste länken inom informationssäkerhet

Människans roll inom IS kan ofta falla till glömska inom organisationer som besitter en hög teknisk medvetenhet. Då utvecklingen av tekniska lösningar sker i explosionsartad takt blir möjligheten för användaren att hänga med mindre för varje ny funktion. Säkerhetsmedveten-het är därmed en fråga som bör diskuteras och göras mer aktuell inom organisationer idag då litteratur påvisar att det inte fin

Utvärdering av vattenkemisk data från Borgholm kommun och dess relation till geologiska förhållanden och markanvändning

Due to unusually low precipitation during late autumn and winter of the year 2015/2016 the groundwater levels of south-eastern Sweden have reached the lowest levels ever recorded since measurements began in 1968. In the month of April in the year 2016 the Geological Survey of Sweden (SGU) made a public statement to the media announcing that unless substantial amounts of precipitation is added duri

Does brief compassion meditation increase positive affect and social connectedness?

Compassion meditation (CM) has shown promising effects on well-being and pro-social behaviour. The current study tested the hypotheses that a 10-minute CM would increase levels of Positive Affect (PA) and Social Connectedness (SC) more than a Passive Progressive Muscle Relaxation (PPMR) exercise, of similar length. We also hypothesized that the effects would differ depending on individual differen

FDI and environmental pollution nexus in China

Our paper studies the foreign direct investment (FDI)-pollution nexus based on China’s province level panel data from 2005 to 2014. The analysis focuses not only on a national panel (including all provinces), but also on three regional panels (provinces are divided by economic region. We applied dynamic panel data model with lagged variables based on general moment method (GMM) to capture causalit

DRIP A clock and light installation with a hint of rain

Everything we see in nature shows how the environment influences them from both inside and outside, for example, appearance and inner structure. As Charles Darwin’s theory of natural selection, specific behavioural and physical adaptations that are the outcome of natural selection. [1] The outer appearance is a visible reflection of how environment changed while the inner structure is the organism

Regional Disparities in Agricultural Transformation, Growth and Poverty Reduction: Brazil in a historical perspective

This paper aims to improve the understanding of economic development in Brazil since the 1950s by studying the relationship between structural transformation and poverty reduction at the state-level. Results from a modified shift-share analysis and analysis of an indicator of agricultural transformation suggest that structural transformation is a rather heterogeneous process within the country, hi

Miljömässigt hållbara material för bostadshus - En miljösystemanalys med livscykelperspektiv för material till BoKloks bostäder

Efterfrågan på nyproducerade bostäder är stor i Sverige och bygg- och fastighetssektorn står för en betydande del av samhällets miljöpåverkan. För att minska sektorns miljöpåverkan läggs idag allt större fokus vid att välja byggnadsmaterial med omsorg. Företaget BoKlok bygger bostäder industriellt och vill utreda miljöpåverkan från material som används i stor utsträckning, för att kunna ta större There is a large need for housing in Sweden and the construction sector generates a significant part of society’s environmental impact. To reduce the environmental impact from the sector it is important to choose materials wisely. The company BoKlok builds housing industrially and wants to estimate the environmental impact caused by some of the major material groups. This could lead to more enviro

Riskanalys: Faror och risker med p-piller bestående av Ethinylestradiol (EE2) och Estradiol (E2) i Helge å

Fiskar i Helge å går på p-piller, vilka risker och faror medför det? När fiskar exponeras för östrogena ämnen som finns i p-piller blir de tvåkönade. P-piller kan bestå av två östrogener, där det naturliga hormonet estradiol (E2) marknadsförs som det miljövänliga alternativet. Denna studie har kommit fram till att det är falsk marknadsföring då E2 inte är miljövänligare än det syntetiska hormonetDuring the 90’s intersex individuals was found among fish downstream sewage treatment plants, this was found to be due to estrogens in the water. Today we know that one of the largest contributors of the effects on fish is 17a-ethinylestradiol (EE2). EE2 is a synthetic estrogen used in contraceptive pills and is one of the most used pharmaceuticals in the world. In addition to intersex EE2 also ge

Silencing the Subaltern: A Postcolonial Critique of NGO-run Orphanages in Jinja, Uganda

The large number of orphanages in Jinja, Uganda has promoted the widespread institutionalisation of children from poor families. Parents are left disempowered and have very few options but to sign over the rights of their children because NGOs in the region have largely prioritised orphanage care over other services. This paper critically analyses the failure of non-state actors in addressing the

Determinants of Child Poverty in Uruguay: The impact of gender inequality

The objective of this thesis is to examine the response of child poverty to wage and educational gender gaps within the household. The analysis combined household level longitudinal data, from Uruguay’s Continuous Household Survey carried on in 2012 and 2013, with the survey of Nutrition, Child Development and Health conducted in the country in the same years. We use two different models to estima

Computer Simulation Study of dsDNA - Melting and Bubble Formation

DNA är en mycket viktig molekyl, eftersom den innehåller all vår genetiska information. DNA består av två komplementära strängar som tillsammans bildar en dubbelhelix. Varje sträng är en sekvens av nukleotider, med olika baser: adenin (A), tymin (T), guanin (G), och cytosin (C). A och T på olika strängar bildar baspar, likaså G och C. Därför kan man genom att läsa av ena strängen veta sekvensen påA simple coarse-grained model has been developed for the purpose of studying DNA melting and especially the formation of bubbles in the melting process. The inter-strand interaction includes terms for excluded volume and electrostatics, as well as a short-ranged attraction modelling hydrogen-bonding, differing for the two base pairs. Results were obtained by canonical Monte Carlo simulations. The

Creating a Competitive Environment: Factors Affecting the Successful Usage of Business Intelligence
