Carbonatite is an unusual type of rock that, for a long time, were not accepted for what they really are. This group of rocks is now considered to be of igneous origin and is classified after its content of carbonate minerals. If it exceed 50% the rock will be named a carbonatite. This group of rocks can be found all over the world and two of these places, which this review will focus on, are the
Det nordiska centret för genus i militära operationer är ett nordiskt säkerhetssamarbete som startades 2012, på Livgardet i Stockholm. Genus har inte varit en del av den militära diskursen väldigt länge och flera anser att den inte behöver bli det heller. Gendercentret utmanar således den traditionella synen på militären och dess uppgifter. Syftet med denna studie är att undersöka hur Gendercentre
In order to understand how the Pleistocene glacial cycles have influenced the diversification in the Reed Bunting (Emberiza schoeniclus) subspecies complex, we conducted a multilocus phylogeographic study. We analysed DNA sequences from 32 breeding populations, covering the species’ Palearctic distribution, and used population genetics, phylogenetic and coalescent methods to uncover genetic struct
Klimatförändringarna med stigande havsnivåer gör att förutsättningarna för vårt byggande måste förändras i kustnära områden. Länsstyrelsen i Skåne har fattat ett beslut om att mark under +3 meter över havet döms ut för bebyggelse. Kommunerna vid kusten får då mycket svårt att expandera, och vill därför kunna hitta eventuella lösningar för att kunna bygga i utsatta lägen. En möjlig lösning är att aWith the climate change sea levels are rising which changes the boundary conditions for sites along the coast. The County Administrative Board of Skåne has decided that new buildings should be built at least 3 meters above sea level. Because of this decision the coastal municipalities have problems with expanding further, and are really keen on finding alternative solutions in order to allow build
Hirham5, a weather model developed at DMI, does not have a very good approximation for the snow albedo. To make the model better a snow albedo code, based on Dickenssen’s equation for snow albedo, was implemented in the model where the albedo depended on more variables than just the temperature. This change is important since the radiation contributes more to the melt than the temperature. The sur
2010 trädde en lagändring i kraft som medförde att vårdnadshavare ålades ett strikt ansvar för skador som deras barn vållat genom brott. Syftet med regleringen var att den skulle verka brottspreventivt och minska förekomsten av ungdomsbrottslighet. Framställningens syfte har varit att utreda detta ansvar och att jämföra med ansvaret som arbetsgivare har för sina arbetstagare. Vårdnadshavares ansIn 2010 an amendment was made that made legal guardians subject to strict liability for damages caused by their children, if the damages were caused as a result of a criminal offence. The purpose was to decrease juvenile delinquency. The purpose of this thesis has been to investigate the liability and to compare it with employer’s liability for an employee’s torts. The liability is regulated in

Model Predictive control (MPC) has been studied extensively because of its ability to handle constraints and its great properties in terms of stability and performance [Mayne et al., 2000]. We have in this thesis focused on MPC of Hybrid Systems, i.e. systems with both continuous and discrete dynamics. More specifically, we look at problems that can be cast as Mixed Integer Quadratic Programming (

The objective of the degree project was to assess the average thermal transmittance and the climate impact of the façade. The studied prefabricated façade panels were the aluminium frame one, the insulated concrete sandwich and the wooden frame panel. The research approach consisted of five steps: the physical and thermal requirement of the panel was established; then the initial U-Value of each p
In the last years, several states in the United States have enacted medical and recre- ational marijuana legalization laws (MMLs and RMLs). These policies aim to regulate the handling of marijuana consumption at the state level. This led to an ongoing debate on the effects of such laws on public health. However, the literature on this topic is very limited regarding the effects of recreational mar
Attracting tourists from all over the world throughout the year, the flourishing of mass tourism in Bali has been perpetual for the last few decades. As both domestic and international tourists increase over time, the demand for built-up areas increases accordingly, which has caused urban expansion exploiting vegetated areas, especially agricultural lands. Consequently, this tourism-led urbanizati
In the last ten years labor economists have become increasingly interested in convex earnings structures in the labor market and their impact on the gender pay gap, an approach spearheaded by Claudia Goldin in her 2014 Presidential Address to the American Economic Association. The study has seen widespread acclaim, but very little replication. This study replicates parts of Claudia Goldin’s work,
Digitalisation has had a profound effect on our society. Much of our daily lives revolve around digital errands that, providing we have the appropriate skills, provide us with innumerous conveniences. Unfortunately for those who do not have such competencies, these normal everyday tasks have become unmanageable and as a result of the McDonaldization of society there are very few places to which th
Cloud is used more than ever before, and the trend seems to continue as more and more organizations choose to use cloud services such as database, storage, computing, or web servers. As more organizations choose cloud, the question of which cloud platform that best suits their needs is more relevant than ever. Within this thesis, the four largest cloud platforms have been evaluated to give future
This thesis was an investigation to survey how the new automated testing tool LeanFT compared to the older tool UFT. The thesis was an exploration into the tool LeanFT, examining how well LeanFT performed with GUI testing, what features the tool offered and how usable it was for a tester of software. The purpose of this thesis work was to come to a resolution on whether the LeanFT tool was a more
The economic potential of East Germany still severely lags behind that of the West. A scarcity of urban agglomerations is associated with this disparity. The origins of this disparity are insufficiently explored with regards to the spatial inequalities of urban growth induced by the two major shocks of central planning and reunification. By creating long-term time series for city growth and popula
This Master Thesis proposes to use a Spatial Hawkes Process to model the news flow in the world. The spatial part is divided in both geographical areas as well as different topics. Therefore, in the Hawkes model every news article corresponds to a point in space and time. In a certain region and topic the intensity of the released articles will be modelled with the Hawkes Process. This can be of i
The quantum cascade laser (QCL) is a semiconductor heterostruc- ture using inter sub-band transitions to generate stimulated emission. The quantum cascade detector (QCD) is a similar to the QCL, but the heterostructure is tailored to absorb radiation and give a read-out current. In this work, three planned or realised QCL:s and two QCD:s have been simulated and analysed using a program based on th
