Sweden passed legislation to achieve a target of net zero greenhouse gas emissions by the end of 2045. The Energy Performance of Building Directive further obliged European countries to ensure zero-energy building codes and improve the quality of indoor environments when buildings are renovated, as approximately 40% of total greenhouse gas emissions in Sweden are produced while heating buildings.

This paper presents a novel approach to understanding violence in service encounters through a sociological lens, focusing specifically on micro-interactional violence. Traditionally, research on violence has focused on structural aspects, linking it to the capitalist system or viewing it as symbolic violence (Gordon & Zainuddin, 2020; Varman, 2010). This study, however, shifts the focus to th

To design and develop boxes which protect, and at the same time utilize fiber material efficiently, models and software for predicting corrugated board and box properties are needed. The purpose of this research is to provide propositions toward improving the use and development of models and software for corrugated board and box design. By using an abductive approach, 18 models and four software

This paper aims to shed light on the Aristotelian notion of dissent and its understanding in the medieval reception of Aristotle’s dialectics. Dissent is fundamental in Aristotle’s Topics, although its exact nature is not clear. Specifically, it is unclear whether dissent is essentially related to an epistemic quality of the premises involved, or whether it simply amounts to social disagreement ab

Elförsörjningen som till huvuddel kommer från fossila bränslen uppfyller vanligen inte efterfrågan i Irak. Samtidigt som det finns goda förutsättningar och stor potential för att installera och utnyttja solel som en lösning för den bristande elförsörjningen men med omtanke som värnar om miljön. Idag har cirka 20 procent av den irakiska befolkningen ingen tillgång till el, de återstående 80 procent

The purpose of this study was to examine how people with personal experience of depression create different kind of discourses and collective identities to the aspirational ”real” depression versus the ”non-acceptable” depression in a big Swedish internet forum. It also examined how the forum writers thought about empowerment versus profesional help as a solution for the ”real” depression. Four fo

A model of event driven anticipatory learning is described and applied to a number of attention situations where one or several visual targets need to be tracked while being intermittently occluded. The model combines covert tracking of multiple targets with overt control of a single attention focus. The implemented system has been applied to both a simple scenario with a car that is occluded in a

Inledningsvis redogörs för de principer och metoder samt rättskällor som har betydelse vid tolkning av skatteavtal utifrån RÅ 1987 ref. 162 Englandsfararmålet, RÅ 1996 ref. 84 Luxemburgmålet och RÅ 2004 ref. 59 Perumålet. Skatteavtal ska enligt praxiThe purpose of this thesis is to systematize the law regarding interpretation and application of tax treaties in the light of recent legal developments. Initially an account is given for the principles and methods and sources of law that are of importance in the interpretation of tax treaties based on The Swedish Supreme Administrative Courts judgments in RÅ 1987 ref. 162, RÅ 1996 ref. 84 and RÅ

When it comes to random walk on the integers Z, the arguably first step of generalization beyond simple random walk is the class of one-sidedly continuous random walk, where the stepsize in only one direction is bounded by 1. Moreover, the time until state 0 is hit by left-continuous random walk on Z has a direct connection to the total progeny in branching processes. In this article, the probabil
