Absorption chillers are energy saving, but low-capacity applications are not available yet. To become competitive with the established vapor-compression chillers, compact and inexpensive main component heat exchangers are required. In the respective capacity range, the conventionally used tube bundle heat exchangers can hardly fulfill that requirement - plate heat exchangers, however, could. The p
Theoretical option prices can be computed using several different pricing models which make numerous assumptions about the markets and the underlying asset. Depending on those assumptions, the models have different strengths and weaknesses which make them more suited to a specific type of market. This study evaluates six different pricing models implemented in MATLAB, and introduces a combined mod
This report covers a survey of the natural occurence of the heavy metal cadmium (Cd) in soil and bedrock in Skåne, Sweden and Europe. The main focus is on the cadmium concentrations in samples of sphalerite (ZnS) collected in quarries in Skåne during the study, and in samples of sphalerite from the rest of Sweden and locations in Spain and USA depostited by the Department of Geology, Lund Universi
A head and neck cancer specific questionnaire module designed to be used in quality of life assessments before, during, and after radiotherapy and surgery, with or without combinations with chemotherapy has been developed in accordance with guidelines given by the EORTC Quality of Life Study Group. Relevant issues were generated by means of literature search, and interviews with specialists and pa
China‟s relations with African countries represent a growing trend in international relations and South-South cooperation. One important aspect of these liaisons is China‟s financial assistance and its deployment of resource-backed infrastructure loans. Angola is China‟s biggest supplier of oil, whereas China is Angola‟s largest donor, having provided Angola with 7.4 billion dollars in credit line
Studien syftar till att undersöka musiklärares förhållningssätt till extra anpassningar och vilka metoder de använder för att göra undervisningen begriplig för alla elever. Arbetet syftar även till att ta reda på om de intervjuade musiklärarna i studien upplever att de får den hjälp de behöver i sitt arbete med extra anpassningar och särskilt stöd. Genom en enkätundersökning ges även en inblick i The study aims to investigate the approach of music teachers to extra adaptations and the methods they use to make teaching understandable for all students. The work also aims to find out if the interviewed music teachers in the study feel that they receive the help they need in their work with extra adaptations and special support. A survey also provides an insight into how students perceive musi
From the recent mortality trends in Central and Eastern Europe, it is clear that in the former socialist countries the economic transition had a different effect on male and female mortality: premature death became much more frequent among males, and the gender mortality gap increased as a result. The psycho-social stress hypothesis (Cornia and Paniccia, 2001) explains the Eastern European experie
The purpose of this paper is to study the impact the coal industry in el Cerrejón has had on the indigenous Wayúu population at the north of Colombia. The issue is addressed in through a human right lens discussing the importance of environmental and indigenous rights, which are not yet included in any legal document of the United Nations. The topic of environmental and indigenous rights is furthe
English title: Song writing and gender. The purpose of this study has been to find out if there are any differences between women's and men's song writing processes, primarily in the singer/songwriter genre. I have interviewed three female songwriters and three men about their way of writing songs. The result shows mainly that there are not any gender related differences in the way songs a
This study examines the influence of scientific knowledge in rule-making processes aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions in the European Union. Specifically, the paper examines the case of regulation on forest biomass in the revised Renewable Energy Directive from 2018. Through the method of process-tracing, the paper seeks to explain the science-policy interface in the case. The so called “u
Popular Abstract in English In the past ten years, homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI) combustion has been one of the subjects receiving great research interests in the combustion research community and the engine industry. This is because HCCI combustion processes have the potential of not only capable providing high efficiency like diesel engine combustion, but also producing much lowLarge Eddy Simulation (LES) modeling is developed to study homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI) combustion under different engine operation and mixture conditions, including real engine configurations and generic test cases. A previously developed HCCI model has been validated by comparing the simulation results with engine experiments. A new spark-assisted HCCI (SACI) combustion model h
This article describes two inter-related research projects concerned with the teaching and learning of English in contemporary contexts, where English is changing its status from being the first language of specific groups of speakers to becoming a global lingua franca. Focussing respectively on learners of English as a second language (L2 users) in the Netherlands and Sweden, and on native speake
AbstractEyestrain is a common issue when performing visually demanding work, often accompanied by neck and shoulder strain, as well as visual problems such as dim vision. The aim of this paper is to investigate the association between eyestrain and musculoskeletal strain, as well as the association between eyestrain and visual symptoms. Two regression analyses were conducted on subjective ratings Eyestrain is a common issue when performing visually demanding work, often accompanied by neck and shoulder strain, as well as visual problems such as dim vision.

In this country report, as well as the accompanying general report, the authors revisit a 1999 European Taxation article discussing tax avoidance, which stemmed from the first European Association of Tax Law Professors meeting. The authors explore shifts in tax avoidance perception due to the introduction of the treaty general anti-avoidance rule (GAAR) (principal purpose test), EU GAAR and specif
This thesis covers the estimation of the fracture behaviour of the European wood species Norway spruce and birch. The fracture behavior of wood can be quantified through three material parameters: the stiffness, the strength, and the specific fracture energy. In the present work, these parameters are characterized through two methods.The first method is purely experimental and only estimates one pThis thesis covers the estimation of the fracture behaviour of the European woodspecies Norway spruce and birch.

The Siljan region hosts Europe´s largest impact structure. The high-relief landscape, with a central granite dome bordered by lake basins, contains an array of glacial and shore-level landforms. We investigated its deglaciation history by mapping and analysing landforms on high resolution LiDAR-based Digital Surface Models coupled with well-dated sediment successions from peat and lake sediment co
