In order for our energy consumption to be sustainable, we need to rely more and more on renewable energy resources, such as solar power and wind power. In Sweden, 69% of the land area is covered in forest. To open up the possibility of exploiting these forested areas for wind power production, it is desired to gain a better knowledge of the flow situation above forests. An analytical and a numeric

Riskbedömningar i Europa har vid flera gånger pekats ut som att undermåliga. En aspekt som ofta förbises är den av pH-nivåer hos det omgivande mediet. Eftersom 80% av alla läkemedel är joniserbara, vilket påverkar biotillgänglighet och därför toxiciteten för ämnet, kommer ett förbiseende av denna aspekt skapa en stor osäkerhet i risk. Denna studie visar att riskerna med joniserbara föreningar i ÖsRisk assessments in Europe have at multiple times been pointed out as being substandard. One aspect that is often overlooked is that of the pH levels of the surrounding medium. Since 80% of all pharmaceuticals are ionizable, which affect the bioavailability and therefore toxicity of the compound, overlooking this aspect will create a great uncertainty in the risk. This study shows that the hazards

Leadership is an important element for enabling collaboration and coordination among these actors, for example in the emergence of policy networks. The aim of this study is to provide a dynamic view of leadership in poli

This phenomenon obtained attention after the Soviet Union collapse, which has resulted in worsening of the socio-economic situation in monotowns. However, since the 2000s the differentiation in

Article 16 of the VAT Directive, which regulates the self-supply of goods, is a good example of how it is complicated to achieve fraud resistance and full compliance with the principle of fiscal neutrality in the current system of VAT. This provision concerns taxation on business goods used for private purposes, which has shown to be a complex area of VAT. Although the application of this rule has

China’s economic growth undoubtedly led to an increase in the standard of living. Nevertheless, the price that China paid for this remarkably fast growth since its opening up in 1978 cannot be neglected. Due to a restructuring of the economic growth model, inequality occurred to a certain extent and has been strengthened by Chinese institutional features. The current growth model is considered as

Today there is a push towards creating vibrant cities where the status of pedestrians and vehicles in the traffic environment is more equal. One possible way of enabling this is to introduce walking pace areas, where drivers must keep walking speed and also must give way to pedestrians. In this work four walking pace areas are selected in order to investigate what makes them function as intended.

The object of this thesis is to analyze and discuss normcore and its discursive relationship to subculture and mainstream. The urban district Williamsburg and the French fashion brand Céline will respectively be used as cases to exemplify these two different aspects. Normcore is an attitude that the trend agency K-HOLE mapped out in their report Youth mode: A Report on Freedom. The attitude turned

Purpose: The purpose of this thesis is to analyse how oil price shocks affect the economic growth in net-oil exporting countries.

Method: The data used covers the years 1980 to 2008 and includes

En välmående demokratisk rättsstat är beroende av att allmänheten känner förtroende för rättsväsendet.
