Nucleation and growth of SBA-15 silica nanostructured particles with well-defined morphologies has been followed with time by small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) and ultrasmall-angle X-ray scattering (USAXS), using synchrotron radiation. Three different morphologies have been compared: platelets, toroids, and rods. SEM observations of the particles confirm that two key physical parameters control

Det är en grundidé i aktiebolagslagen att bolagsformen i stor utsträckning skall utgöra en riskbegränsad form av företagande. Det finns dock situationer där denna idé frångås och fysiska personer blir ansvariga för bolagets skulder. Uppsatsen skall utreda sådana situationer i anslutning till ABL:s regler om kritisk kapitalbrist. Reglerna riktar till stor del in sig på styrelsen och dennes agerandeIt’s one of the basic ideas Swedish Companies Act (SCA) that limited liability company is supposed to be a risk-limited form of business for owners, board members and other company officials. There are however situations when this idea is put aside in favour for other interests and board members can be personally responsible for the company’s debts. This essay will investigate such situations in c

En konkurrensklausul är en förpliktelse i konkurrensförebyggande syfte och är ofta förekommande vid företagsöverlåtelser. Vid företagsförvärv som innefattar goodwill och/eller know-how uppkommer ett behov för köparen att söka skydd mot att säljaren, med sitt försprång, efter förvärvet inte startar upp en ny konkurrerande verksamhet. Den rådande konkurrenssituationen kan vara en förutsättning för aA non-competition clause is an undertaking in competition prevention and is frequently used in a company transfers. In the case of company acquisitions that include goodwill and/or expertise, a need arises for the buyer to seek protection that the vendor, with its lead, does not start up a new, competing business after the acquisition. The current competitive situation may be a prerequisite for th

Barn är en särskilt känslig grupp i samhället. Det genomförs därför återkommande nationella enkäter om deras miljörelaterade hälsa, kopplad till hem- och bostadsmiljö. Många barn tillbringar dock en betydande del av sin vakna tid i förskolan, men det har hittills inte funnits någon samlad bild över den fysiska miljön där, vare sig lokalt eller nationellt. Därför har Arbets- och miljömedicin i LundChildren are a particularly vulnerable group in society. It is therefore carried out national surveys on how their health is affected by their home and residential environment. Many children, however, spend a significant proportion of their waking hours in preschools and that environment has not been as closely monitored, neither locally nor nationally. Therefore Occupational and Environmental Med

The research of psychiatry counselors’ work with compulsory care patients is very limited, if not non-existent. The aim of this study was therefore precisely that: to explore psychiatry counselors’ view on their work with compulsory care patients. The main method chosen was a qualitative questionnaire with nine psychiatry counselors from predominantly the regions of Skåne, Stockholm and Västra Göt

Läkemedelssektorn i EU är en mycket komplicerad marknad med många aktörer med olika ekonomiska och politiska intressen. På grund av dessa intressen, marknadens struktur samt konkurrensrätten och patenträttens utformning i EU uppstår situationer där dessa intressen ställs till sin spets i så kallade pay-for-delay-överenskommelser. Dessa överenskommelser är en del av ett förlikningsavtal till följd

Kreativiteten är inneboende och speciell för människan. Så länge vi har skapat har vi gjort det utifrån vad tidigare tagit del av. Så var fallet för de klassiska kompositörerna från upplysningstiden, för rockstjärnorna på 70-talet och för den tidiga generationen DJ:s från Jamaica och New York som, så fort tekniken tillät det, började sampla tidigare musik och mixa sina egna versioner med dem, vilkCreativity is at the very essence of being human. For as long as we have created, we have done so on the basis of what we have seen previously. This was true for the classical composers of the enlightenment, for the rock stars of the 70s and for the early DJs of Jamaica and New York who, when technology allowed it, started to extract samples from previous music and making their owns tracks with it

The study considers the phenomenon of double alienation, by which is meant the immigrant’s feeling of in a sense being alienated in their native country as well as in the new one. Those elements of their behaviour which are common in the one country or the other are expected there, whereas those which are not are seen as strange and different. This gives the immigrant a feeling of being at home in

Syftet med uppsatsen är att undersöka om åsikterna skiljer sig åt beroende på vilken geografisk region respondenten härstammar ifrån samt att undersöka om åsikterna skiljer sig åt mellan intressegrupperna. För att bearbeta materialet har en kvantitativ innehållsanalys gjorts av inkomna kommentarsbrev till IASB:s exposure draft 2013/9 för IFRS for SMEs som, utöver förslagen, innehöll åtta direkta

Denna fallstudie studerar och analyserar hur Arla bemöter negativa kommentarer på Instagramkontot Arla Sverige. Vi belyser hur Arla förhåller sig till teorier inom Is-sues Management i sin kommunikation på ett av sina Instagramkonton. Vi använder en netnografisk observation samt intervjumetod som insamlingsmetod. Den netnografiska metoden används för att samla in kommentarer från Instagramkontot AThis case study aims to investigate how Arla responds to negative comments posted to their social media in order to gain knowledge of how they take into consideration Issues Management in their social media communication. Through a netnographic observation and two in-depth interviews with Arlas press- and media manager we gather empirical material. The netnographic observation is used to gather co

Queuing during evacuation is a phenomenon that has to be regarded when designing large buildings with high occupant loads. In theory it would be possible to eliminate or at least reduce the queuing time when evacuating a building if the building is designed with a large number of exits. The problem is that exits equal money and for that reason it has to be assumed that the building constructors’ a

Wastewater treatment consists of mechanical, chemical and biological purification. This master thesis concerns the biological part of the wastewater treatment called the activated sludge process (ASP). Two different mathematical models, one simplified and one complete, of the ASP are investigated. The models contain systems of nonlinear partial and ordinary differential equations. The nonlineariti

Traditional museums are sometimes static, passive and lifeless. Based on previous work on interaction techniques in Virtual Reality museums, the aim of this Master Thesis is to bring this work to the next level. The project will focus on improving the experience of exploring a virtual museum through more realistic modeling and improved navigation and interaction with the objects allocated inside.

This thesis examines the relationship between financial development and economic growth. By reviewing previous theories and empirical studies about financial development and economic growth and financial development process in China, I assumed that there is a positive relationship between financial development and economic growth in China case. Then I use time series annual data from 1978 to 2009

BACKGROUND: Patients with acute coronary occlusion (ACO) may not only have ischemia-related ST-segment changes but also changes in the QRS complex. It has recently been shown in dogs that a greater ischemic QRS prolongation (IQP) during ACO is related to lower collateral flow. This suggests that greater IQP could indicate more severe ischemia and thereby more rapid infarct development. Therefore,

We report on charge transport across self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of short tau peptides by probing the electron tunneling rates and quantum mechanical simulation. We measured the electron tunneling rates across SAMs of carboxyl-terminated linker molecules (C6H12O2S) and short cis-tau (CT) and trans-tau (TT) peptides, supported on template-stripped gold (AuTS) bottom electrode, with Eutectic Ga
