Vi undersöker strukturen och stabiliteten hos fixpunkter i en modell för transport av auxin. Arbetet bygger vidare p*a tidigare arbeten av Anders Svensson och Patrik Sahlin m.fl. Svensson undersökte 2008 en modell för transport av auxin, den s.k. skalningsmodellen. I detta arbete kompletterar vi dels denna undersökning, och dels så generaliserar vi modellen till två dimensioner och undersöker den
A selection of the latest and most frequently used PDFs is incorporated in Pythia8, including the MC-adapted PDFs from the MSTW and CTEQ collaborations. This thesis examines the differences in PDFs as well as the effect they have on results of simulations. The results are also compared to data collected by the CDF experiment.
This thesis describes methods for treating servo-induced vibrations in robotics. The focus lies on portal robots (also called linear robots) that partially consist of hardware manufactured by Bernecker & Rainer Industrie-Elektronik Ges.m.b.H. It is of interest in many industrial applications that there is some kind of vibration treatment in the control strategy. The main reason for this is tha
Chinese orthodox philosophy is often described as communitarian and characterised by the concept of positive freedom, which, defined by Isaiah Berlin's two concepts of liberty, deems it necessity to curb individual freedom for the good of a community. Still, some orthodox Chinese writers also use aspects of negative freedom, insisting on a sphere of individual freedom that no authority can cur
The purpose of the thesis was to introduce the general process of the Modern Guide Dog Movement in Japan. The research was conducted by the fieldwork in Tokyo, spring 2011, under a main contribution from the Japan Guide Dog Association through interviews and participant observations. An in-depth study of the three-stage Modern Guide Dog Movement in Japan is presented and discussed in the thesis. D
Syftet med föreliggande studie var att undersöka om metaemotioner, experientiellt undvikande och medveten närvaro kan förutsäga partillfredsställelse skattad med Couples Satisfaction Index. Dessutom undersöktes om specifika metaemotioner och parternas metaemotionsfilosofier kan förutsäga partillfredsställelse. Samband för ovanstående har visats eller antytts i tidigare studier. Dessa studier har dThe aim of the present study was to investigate the role of meta-emotions, experiential avoidance, and mindfulness in the prediction of couples’ satisfaction, estimated with the Couples Satisfaction Index. Additionally, the study examined whether individuals’ meta-emotions and partners’ meta-emotion philosophies could predict couple satisfaction. A connection between the above-mentioned constructs
By use of a lattice random walk algorithm we model diffusion in a many-body system and study the mean square displacement (MSD) for a tagged particle for different distributions of crowding particles, with particular emphasis on obtaining the correlation factor which contains the corrections to the mean-field result in such a system. The MSD in such a crowded environment is investigated and we fin
Studien undersöker om en riktad manipulation kan påverka en försöksdeltagare att aktivt korrigera sin responstid vid ett implicit test gällande fördomar. Manipulationen gavs som falsk feedback efter ett SPF test (Sorting Paired Features task) och hypotesen var att personer som erhåller ingruppsfavoritism som feedback främst korrigerar sin responstid för sin ingrupp medans personer som erhåller fee
This paper examines the potential decrease in Swedish green house gas emissions as a result of a more ecologically sustainable household consumption. The consumption changes modelled are; a vegan diet, reduced household electricity use and changed private traveling patterns. To do this, the Swedish version of the software programme Resource and Energy Analysis Program (REAP Sweden) is being use
Kan man förutspå en finanskris? De amerikanska ekonomerna Reinhart och Rogoff har gjort en studie1 över historiska finanskriser. I deras studie utgår de från fem olika ekonomiska variabler. I den här uppsatsen görs en utvärdering av de fem ekonomiska variablerna. Beroende på vilket värde variablerna hade åren 2004-2007, så är utgångspunkten att olika länder hade olika risk att drabbas av en finans
This thesis seeks to reveal the relationship of language and content in a Moroccan short story. These relationships are defined as such by pointing out single linguistic elements in the story’s language which reproduce a certain component of the story’s content. The main question hereby asks for the effect of the author’s language on the message itself – for, as the carrier of information, languag
Varumärkesrätten är territoriell, till skillnad från Internet, en av våra idag viktigaste marknadsplatser, som är globalt. Ett resultat av varumärkesrättens territorialitet och det faktum att rättigheterna till ett varumärke följer registrerings- eller inarbetningslandets gränser är att det är möjligt för ett varumärke att ägas av olika innehavare i olika länder. Vilket kan leda till problem när sTrademark law is territorial, contrary to one of today’s most important market places - the Internet, which is a global medium. Since the exclusive right to a trademark follows the boundaries of its country of registration or incorporation, it is possible for the same trademarks to be registered by different owners in different countries, something that can lead to problems on the Internet. The bo
This thesis analyzes the workings of the natural resource curse in Bolivia through a comparison between two periods with different institutional conditions and under dependency on tin and natural gas respectively. First the conditions for handling the resource curse are analyzed and a hypothesis is presented, suggesting that both periods are likely to have suffered from the natural resource curse
Background: Sandvik is in the middle of a great investment, the so called Green Field investment, which will imply a new factory for parts of their stone crush production. The facility is, at current situation, in engineering phase and the preparations are in focus and running at high speed. Purpose: The aim of this master thesis and final course in the education is to give an insight and valuable
Purpose The purpose of the study is to investigate what Procordia needs to do to increase the number of packaging ideas which leads to product launches, where the packaging is the unique selling point. Method The study has been conducted through a system approach because of the importance of a holistic view while making the study. The research method has been an abductive method due to the alterna
The aim of this master thesis is to explore which meanings that can be ascribed to knowledge organization in the field of library- and information science. This I do through studying two works that deal with this subject, namely Everything is Miscellaneous: The Power of the New Digital Disorder by David Weinberger from 2007 and Organization of Information by Arlene G. Taylor and Daniel N. Jourdrey
Den som utsätts för ett brott har med stöd av nödvärnsbestämmelsen i 24 kap 1 § BrB rätt att försvara sig. Självklart måste det finnas gränser för hur mycket våld som i sådana situationer får användas. Därför anges i bestämmelsen att våldet inte får ha varit ”uppenbart oförsvarligt”. Trots att man överskridit rätten till nödvärn kan man enligt svensk rätt gå fri från ansvar. Gärningen ska enligt A person who is being subjected to a crime has, according to Chapter 24 Section 1 Brottsbalken, a right to defend himself. Naturally the right to self-defence must have some kind of limit. Therefore the provision states that the violence used cannot be “clearly indefensible” Even though an offender has exceeded the right to self-defence he or she can still be excused according to Swedish law.
