Grannelagsrätt : Seminarium 28 november 2024

Vi har sedan 2009 ordnat seminarier som ger klara och handfasta besked på centrala fastighetsrättsliga ämnen. Denna gång är ämnet Grannelagsrätt. Rättsförhållanden mellan grannar i 3 kap jordabalken utgör grunden för grannelagsrätten, men grannelagsrättsliga frågor regleras även i miljöbalken och plan- och bygglagen.

Buoyancy effects on combustion products from high-pressure hydrogen jet flames

Due to the lower radiative fraction and typically higher storage pressures, gas temperatures can often result in longer safety distances compared to radiative heat transfer for hydrogen jet flames. The high temperatures, however, also lead to a low density causing the flow to rise at a certain distance from the release. Unfortunately, a model to determine this distance, similar to what is availabl

Characterisation of fire smoke emissions from fire retardant wood

Fire retardants are extensively used to reduce the flammability (combustibility) of wood–based construction materials in an effort to improve fire safety of buildings. However, little is known of the composition and potential risks to human health of smoke emissions produced from combustion of fire retardant treated wood. To help understand the risk to human health, fire smoke emissions produced f

Design of stiff elasto-plastic structures

This study investigates “stiffness” optimization of path-dependent elasto-plastic structures by comparing the traditional secant stiffness formulation with a novel tangent stiffness formulation. Design updates are generated using the gradient-based Method of Moving Asymptotes (MMA), and the material behavior is modeled and limited to small-strain elasto-plasticity and isotropic hardening. Numerica

Federated Learning for Obstacle Detection to Assist the Visually-Impaired Using Augmented Reality

Vision impairment increases risks such as social isolation, mobility challenges, and falls. Wearable Augmented Reality (AR) devices with Artificial Intelligence (AI) can enhance sensory perception by enabling real-time recognition of obstacles, assisting visually impaired individuals during street navigation, aiming to reduce the risk of falls. In this paper, we propose a Federated Learning (FL) f

Discrepancies in testing, classification and performance of bio-based insulation materials

The fire behaviour of bio-based insulation materials is studied by comparing results from Cone Calorimeter and small-scale furnace tests. Clear differences in fire behaviour were observed between wood fibre and hemp fibre insulation. The analysis reveals that smouldering plays a critical role, particularly in furnace tests. Limitations of current fire resistance tests are highlighted, particularly

Quantifying the Heat Release of Wood Fiber Insulation using Small-Scale Calorimetry

Bio-based insulation materials, such as wood fiber, offer sustainable alternatives to conventional insulation but pose challenges due to their combustibility, particularly their smouldering behavior. This study investigates the heat release characteristics of wood fiber insulation using a combination of Simultaneous Thermal Analysis (STA) and Microscale Combustion Calorimetry (MCC) to assess both

Interplay between astrocyte reactivity and APOE ε4 status is associated with accelerated pTau-related tau pathology in Alzheimer’s disease

Background: Various plasma phosphorylated tau species have been shown to be associated with amyloid-β (Aβ) PET and Tau PET in Alzheimer’s disease (AD), but whether APOE ε4 affects the interaction between glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) and phosphorylated tau (pTau), and whether a three-way interaction exists among APOE ε4, GFAP, and pTau that influences AD progression remain unclear. Method

Systemic and local decorin levels mirror the clinical course of pancreatic cancer

Despite significant progress in oncology research, pancreatic cancer remains inherently difficult to treat, and the mechanisms underlying therapeutic resistance remain unresolved. Decorin (DCN), a member of the family of small leucine-rich proteoglycans, has emerged as a versatile actor in various malignant diseases. The aim of this study was to further explore the potential clinical significance

Optimization-Based Path-Velocity Control for Time-Optimal Path Tracking under Uncertainties

This paper addresses the path-tracking problem of time-optimal trajectories under model uncertainties, by proposing a real-time predictive scaling algorithm. The algorithm is formulated as a convex optimization problem, designed to balance the trade-off between improving feasibility and time optimality of a trajectory. The predicted trajectory is scaled based on the presence of path segments that

Perception, control, and hardware for in-hand slip-aware object manipulation with parallel grippers

Dexterous in-hand manipulation offers significant potential to enhance robotic manipulator capabilities. This paper presents a sensori-motor architecture for in-hand slip-aware control, being embodied in a sensorized gripper. The gripper in our architecture features rapid closed-loop, low-level force control and is equipped with sensors capable of independently measuring contact forces and sliding

Lyssnande, samarbete & drivkraft: En text och studie i lyssnande, samverkan och målmedvetenhet mellan musiker

Arbetets syfte är att genom intervjuer ta reda på hur viktigt samverkan och företagsamhet är för alla musiker och kompositörer. Hur hör detta ihop med lyssnande och samverkan i repetitions- eller konsertsalen? Vad tycker dirigenten är viktigt för att driva en orkesterrepetition framåt? Vilken väg ska en kompositör gå för att komma i kontakt med konserthusen? Med intervjuer av kollegor och professoThe aim of the work is to find out through interviews how important collaboration and entrepreneurship are for all musicians and composers. How does this relate to listening and collaboration in the rehearsal or concert hall? What does the conductor think is important to drive an orchestral rehearsal forward? What route should a composer take to get in touch with concert halls? Through interviews

Chemical abundances in the Milky Way’s nuclear stellar disc

Context. The nuclear stellar disc (NSD) is a rotating, disc-like structure in the Galactic centre; it is believed to have a distinct star formation history and a predominantly old stellar population. However, its formation history and evolutionary links to other structures in the Galactic centre remain uncertain. Studying the chemical evolution of the NSD could provide new insights into this regio
