Sociala hänsynstaganden, som exempelvis spelberoende, minderårigas spelande samt förebyggandet av brottslighet och bedrägeri, har traditionellt motiverat Medlemsstaternas nästintill ovillkorliga rätt att reglera spel på nationell nivå. När spel på Internet introducerades valde EU-domstolen att applicera samma argument och fortsätta bekräfta denna rätt. Internetspel har dock förändrat den traditionConcerns of public interest, such as the prevention of problem gambling, underage gambling and evading the risks of crime and fraud, have in the jurisprudence of the CJEU traditionally been used to justify a wide discretionary right for the Member States to regulate gambling. When online gambling was introduced, the CJEU decided to apply the same arguments and continue to affirm the strong rights

Implementation of Bridge weigh-in-motion (B-WIM) measurements and probabilistic approaches in bridge assessment may reveal hidden bridge reserves and changes in reliability levels over their projected service life, providing a key input for optimized bridge management. But, as scientists and engineers and at the same time vendors of our own ideas, we need to be in position to present the results o

The construction workflow of in-situ concrete frames in multi-storey residential buildings is highly complex and dynamic. Discrete-event simulation (DES) offers capabilities to model and analyse such complexity. Although DES has successfully been used by researchers in a wide range of construction-related applications there are not many examples demonstrating how different simulation outputs (time

Cross-border regions are characterised by many inherent challenges. Such challenges can include differences in languages, cultures, currencies, markets, labour market conditions, political visions and priorities, governance structures – to name but a few. Greater Copenhagen1 is no different in terms of the challenges it faces as a cross-border region.The aim of this study is to investigate the pos

Safety in density (SID) potentially explains the safety in numbers (SIN) phenomenon by positing that ‘the SIN effect can be reproduced simply through encouraging behaviour that leads to the formation of higher-density cyclist groups’. The study further explores this hypothesis using event-based exposure, queues and groups of road users. Using three different definitions of encounters between road u

Lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs) are enzymes that bind polysaccharides followed by an (oxidative) disruption of the polysaccharide surface, thereby boosting depolymerization. The binding process between the LPMO catalytic domain and polysaccharide is key to the mechanism and establishing structure-function relationships for this binding is therefore crucial. The hyperfine coupling const

In this paper we first critically review conventional environmental economics. We conclude that the standard theory offers too narrow a perspective for many real world problems and that many theories are not empirically tested. Consequently, environmental economics is at risk of producing aeroplanes without engines. Next, we welcome and discuss some recent trends, particularly the rapid developmen

I denna rapport analyseras effekterna av sänkta parkeringsnormer för bostäder för invånarna i det centrumnära, och relativt nybyggda, bostadsområdet Porslinsfabriken i Göteborg. Porslinsfabriken är med en relativt låg parkeringsnorm på 0,57 platser per lägenhet ett bra exempel på en parkeringspolitik som förs i alltfler kommuner. Resultatet visar att 19 procent av hushållen har minskat bilinnehaveThis report analyses the effects of lowered parking requirements for residents in the centrally located, relatively newly built housing area, Porslinsfabriken in Gothenburg. Porslinsfabriken has a relatively low parking requirement of 0.57 places per apartment and is a good example of a parking policy being introduced in many Swedish municipalities. The results show that 19 percent of households h

The Absolut Company har öppnat besökscentret Absolut Home i Åhus och detta har potential att medföra ett stort antal värden för orten. Forskarna har studerat bådeturistaktörers och Åhusbors syn på värden för att ta reda på hur de ställer sig till det nya besökscentret i sin ort.

Detailed diagenetic studies of the late Cambrian Alum Shale in southern Sweden were undertaken across an interval that includes the peak Steptoean Positive Carbon Isotope Excursion (SPICE) event to evaluate the pyrite mineralization history in the formation. Samples were collected from the Andrarum-3 core (Scania, Sweden); here the Alum was deposited in the distal, siliciclastic mudstone-rich end

The stress intensity factor is investigated for a long plane crack with one tip interacting with a strip of graded elastic material. In the strip the material may have a non uniform modulus of elasticity whereas variation of Poisson’s ratio is ignored. The crack length and the body dimensions are assumed to be large compared to the linear extent of the graded region. The crack tip including the gr

Title: The use of art for branding purposes - A study of Louis Vuitton’s art collaborations Louis Vuitton’s creative director, Marc Jacobs, personally describes the fine arts as being higher up in the social hierarchy than fashion. After all, it is known as the ultimate luxury item. This essay will explore the way that the brand uses art in various ways as a means of branding. After extensive res

This paper aims to analyze the influential factors by parallel analysis of both regions (Yangtze and Oresund) and then explore the possible model for Yangtze ICT cluster based on the experience of Oresund ICT. Through the qualitative and quantitative analysis, we find the result that there is no universal model of cluster that can be applied to any region directly. The model of Chinese ICT cluster

This report is a result of a Master Thesis made at Volvo 3P and the Department of Advance Engineering and Concepts. The thesis is a part of the education in Mechanical Engineering at the Department Design Sciences, for the Division of Machine Design at Lund University. Volvo 3P is involved in a project regarding a new patented manufacturing method that is under development. The manufacturing metho
