We review the history of floristic studies of the parish of Stenbrohult, southern Sweden, where Carl Linnaeus was born in 1707 and spent his summers until 1728. Unfortunately, Carl Linnaeus never made a list of the wild vascular plants at his birthplace, although he mentioned at least 64 species from the parish of Stenbrohult in various manuscripts and books. However, he said that Stenbrohult was
Forskare, från Piaget till Huizinga, MacCannell, Turner, Betcher, Suits, Aarseth, Castronova, Boellstorff, Caillois och Sutton-Smith, för att nämna endast några få, har i decennier och med olika disciplinära angreppssätt försökt förstå sig på lek och spel. “Play” – är ett högst tvetydigt begrepp så brett och metaforiskt att det motstår alla försök att inlemma det under en och samma paraplyteori. P
A recent body of empirical studies has given us a reason to expect that an influx of low-skilled workers can increase high skilled female market labour supply. Most of these studies, however, have focused on developed countries and on investigating the impact as it pertains to immigration. Believing that this same effect might hold in the case of internal migration, in this study, I employ a shift-s
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
The original aim for this case study was to look at how two synonymous lexemes, feminine and womanly, have varied in meaning over time in both British and American literature and also, to see if there was a difference in the usage of the lexemes depending on whether the author was male or female. As can be read in Lyons (1995: 60), lexemes like feminine and womanly would be called near-synonyms in
Det övergripande syftet med denna uppsats är att redogöra för den svenska rättens överensstämmelse med EU-rätten avseende sjukfrånvarande arbetstagares rätt till årlig betald semester. En av arbetstagarnas grundläggande sociala rättigheter är nämligen rätten till årlig betald semester som slås fast i rättsakter som härrör från FN, ILO, Europarådet och EU. Rätten till årlig betald semester utgör ävThe overall purpose of this paper is to analyze if Swedish regulations are consistent with EU law in regards of workers being absent from work due to illness and their right to annual leave with pay. The right to paid annual leave is one of the fundamental social rights of workers and is enshrined in legislation arising from the UN, ILO, Council of Europe and the EU. The right to paid annual leave
There are many different ways to study trafficking and I have chosen to do it from three different angles. First, I ask myself which role does globalization play when it comes to trafficking? The globalization has affected the countries in the Mekong Sub-region in different ways. Thailand is the one country where the globalization has come the furthest, with the globalization of both the economy a
The aim of this project was to examine if it is feasible to develop and apply a reuse concept regarding clean in place (CIP) processes. The concept is based on different topics such as lim-itation, structure, future and reliability. Three CIP processes were chosen to represent the wide variety of cleaning processes available to the food and pharmaceutical industries, Single use Food, Recovery Food
The incidence of melanoma is rising and will require more efficient diagnostic procedures to meet a growing demand. Excisional biopsy and histopathology is still the standard, which often requires multiple surgical incisions with increasing margins due inaccurate visual assessment of where the melanoma borders to healthy tissue. This challenge stems, in part, from the inability to reliably delinea
This text describes the ongoing establishment of media history at Lund University and reflects on its two-front strivings. The birth of media history as a proper, albeit small, discipline within the ordinary structure of the faculty, from graduate level to PhD studies, was very much a matter of chance, and easy enough to achieve. Whether this institutionalisation actually will be productive for th
Studies of the structural dynamics of solids can improve our understanding of atomic motion in materials, and may thus help in the manufacture of new devices or the development of materials with novel structures and properties. Ultrashort laser pulses, a few tens of femtoseconds long, can deliver high energies (mJ–kJ). This energy is absorbed by the electrons in a solid material, leading to a rapi
Popular summary Using Airborne System in Type 2 Diabetes The explosive increase in expansion of diabetes mellitus, particularly type 2 diabetes (T2D) is becoming a threat to public health which is associated with modern lifestyle, abundant nutrient supply, reduced physical activity, and obesity. It is realized that T2D only develops in insulin-resistance subjects which can start with β-cell dysfun
We describe a system for automatic annotation of English text in the FrameNet standard. In addition to the conventional annotation of frame elements and their semantic roles, we annotate additional semantic information such as support verbs and prepositions, aspectual markers, copular verbs, null arguments, and slot fillers. As far as we are aware, this is the first system that finds this informat
Bridges have been built around the world for at least 3000 years and have made it possible for man to travel over obstacles like valleys and rivers, which has contributed to the rapidly growing infrastructure we have today. Efforts made to save materials and reduce production costs have led to lighter and slender structures, which in turn can cause dynamic problems where the bridge is sensitive to
Den här fallstudien undersöker hur Rädda Barnen arbetar opinionsbildande i sin kampanj för att få hem de svenska barnen med föräldrar som har IS-kopplingar från Syrien. Studien har gjorts i syfte att få förståelse för hur Rädda Barnen använder sig av medier för att bedriva sitt kampanjarbete och sätta sig själva och de frågor de bedriver på agendan. Vi har genomfört en studie där vi analyserat fle
