The pending ecological crisis has ushered in a need to rethink how electricity is produced and consumed, which in turn will require new ways of maintaining system balance. One solution that has gained traction over the past decade is the idea of user flexibility.

Since 2010, the Region South Fire and Rescue Service in Sweden has conducted over 60 000 fire-prevention home visits. On-duty fire fighters have gone door-to-door in-forming residents about general safety procedures in case of a fire.

Abstract Sedentary behavior is defined as sitting or lying with low energy expenditure. Humans in industrialized societies spend an increasing amount of time in sedentary behaviors every day. This has been associated with detrimental health outcomes. Despite a growing interest in the health effects of sedentary behavior at work, associations remain unclear, plausibly due to poor and diverse methodSedentary behavior is defined as sitting or lying with low energy expenditure.

Since the introduction of the internal combustion engine, diesel engines have become widely used for transportation in the commercial sector. These engines are attractive as they have low fuel consumption, but are also associated with high emissions of air pollutants, such as NO$_X$ and soot. These emissions a

The integration of renewable energy sources such as solar and wind power is steadily increasing, which introduces challenges such as voltage fluctuations, reduced system stability, and lower power quality. Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) can support the grid by providing services such as frequency regulation and peak shaving, contributing to a more stable and energy-efficient power system.

This essay examines the implicit relationship between political science and rare events, or so called Black Swans. The purpose is to analyze Black Swan weakness by evaluating the nature of political analysis and political theories. The key to this assessment is the analysis of the predictive powers of political analysis and theories. This essay claims, on the basis of Karl Poppers historicism crit

In recent years a growing amount of research has been conductedin the area of workplace incivility. Whereas many studies havefocused on the victims and the consequences of incivility, littleattention has been paid to the perpetrators and antecedents ofworkplace incivility. This study aims to identify possibleantecedents of workplace incivility, by investigating organizationalaspects as well as the

The high level of part-time work among Swedish women raises concern with the Com-mitte on the Elimination of Discrimination Against Women, and Sweden should priori-tize the realization of women’s de facto equality with men in the labour market. The extent of part-time work should be analysed and measurses evaluated and revised. The purpose of this essay has been to examine part-time work among wom

Since national independence many NGOs active in the domain of gender have been established in Kyrgyzstan. Recently, this part of the NGO sector has seen the emergence of alternative organizations, voicing new issues and perspectives. In this thesis, I take a closer look at these new actors: how they differ from the older generation and also in relation to each other. I am especially interested in

There are laws that prohibit ships from discharging solid waste into the Mediterranean Sea. However, it’s estimated that between 15-35% of all plastic found in the Mediterranean comes from merchant shipping. Economic incentives are important to make ships reduce their maritime litter, and this essay will assess economic policies to prevent further pollution. France and Spain have different systems

Imagine a house situated on 2 600 meters above sea level in the Himalayan mountain range. It is in the middle of January and – 2 degrees Celsius inside. The only source of additional heat you have access to is lighting an open fire or firing in the cooking stove, both of which you fuel with some kind of solid biomass such as wood or agricultural waste. The fire is intensifying, you begin to feel t

Abstract: This thesis examines the concept of sustainable economic growth in post-genocide Rwanda, focusing on its structural transformation from the agricultural sector towards the service sector. This exploration essentially regards the implications for catch-up growth in light of the new notion of premature deindustrialisation. The role of Human Capital and Information and Communication technol

The aim with the study was to describe and analyze the profession “personlig assistant” in Lunds kommun. The study was based on interviews with five assistants and one employer/ chief working for Lunds kommun. Eight themes were identified and discussed: tasks, working hours, working environment, the relationship between the assistant and the client, the balance of power between the assistant and t

Ligand exchange at square-planar [Pd(MeCN)4]2+ and [Pd(EtCN)4]2+ has been studied by 1H NMR line broadening and at [Pt(MeCN)4]2+ and [Pt(EtCN)4]2+ by isotopic labelling using 1H NMR spectroscopy in deuteriated nitromethane. Exchange takes place via two-term rate laws Rex/4 = (k1 + k2[RCN])cM with well defined k1 paths. Rate constants per co-ordination site k1298/s–1, k2298/kg mol–1 s–1 are 6.9 ± 1Ligand exchange at square-planar [Pd(MeCN)4]2+ and [Pd(EtCN)4]2+ has been studied by 1H NMR line broadening and at [Pt(MeCN)4]2+ and [Pt(EtCN)4]2+ by isotopic labelling using 1H NMR spectroscopy in deuteriated nitromethane.
