Problem Definition: The aim with this master thesis is to examine the available European Union funded financial support for investment in agricultural machinery in Romania. Its regulations and limits and what customer group Väderstad Verken AB shall target during the pending European Union budget period 2007-2013. Purpose: The purpose of this master thesis is to increase the understanding of the a
Contractors who start building based on incomplete documents will always require many costly solutions. The cost to correct mistakes in the beginning of the project is less than the cost to correct mistakes at the end of the project when the admission takes over. Factors that contribute to these large costs are in the planning stage, when transferring information and lack of communication. Collabo
The purpose of this thesis is to further the understanding of the interaction between museum architecture and the daily operation of the museum, eg the exhibitions, work shops and other activities and how this affect the way we may understand the function of a museum. I have used Norman Faircloughs critical discourse analysis to analyse several articles concerning the resent construction of two mu
The Swedish National Laboratory MAX-lab contains a facility for production of bremsstrahlung photons for photonuclear experiments. A so called "tagging technique" allows for a determination of the energy of the individual photons via a spectrometric measurement of the energy of the corresponding electron. Some of these photons are lost in a collimation process. The fraction of photons in
The role of the fracture process region during fast fracture is discussed. Reviewed experiments on modern pressure vessel steels show that already at crack tip speeds of one or two hundred mls fracture processes are dominantly brittle. Modelling of the process region is discussed in the light of asymptotic elastic plastic fields and process region autonomy. It is suggested that a fraction of the cThe role of the fracture process region during fast fracture is discussed.

This thesis deals with older persons on the move and their access to cross-border healthcare in the European Union. The number of persons crossing borders within the EU has increased exponentially in recent decades. Free movement has been at the core of the European integration project from its early days. Although it was originally intended to apply only to those who were economically active, theThis thesis deals with older persons on the move and their access to cross-border healthcare in the European Union.

The EU cohesion policy is a key policy area of the Union which aims for sustainable development and socioeconomic growth in the regions of the Member States. However, in the current structure of the multi-level governance system, the EU is much reliant on the capacity of the national public administrations to execute and implement the cohesion policy and thereby achieve the intended EU policy obje
This thesis aims to identify power structures in bilateral development assistance using the Norwegian Oil for Development (OfD) programme in Timor-Leste as a case study. Relying mainly on the works of Hughes (2009) and Abrahamsen (2004), the paper presents several examples of power structures considering the aid dependency of Timor- Leste, and the claimed altruistic intentions of the OfD programme
International organisations (IOs) play increasingly important roles in world politics. As states face more complex challenges they have joined together in IOs to solve their common problems. Yet once an IO has been created it may take on a life of its own, and it becomes difficult for its state founders to control what it does. Permanent secretariats populated by experts are one of the most import
In recent years a growing amount of research has been conductedin the area of workplace incivility. Whereas many studies havefocused on the victims and the consequences of incivility, littleattention has been paid to the perpetrators and antecedents ofworkplace incivility. This study aims to identify possibleantecedents of workplace incivility, by investigating organizationalaspects as well as the
Nanostructures are found everywhere in our environment, of either natural oranthropogenic origin. Volcanoes emit them, breakdown of plastic releases them, andthey are even produced in candlelight. Designed nanostructures are used in sunscreen,food products, electronics and many more readily available products. Still, there are alot of things we do not know about their behavior. To call them miniscThis thesis presents the results of studies done on various biomolecules and their interactions with nanomaterials. The biomolecule sources are everything from purified, single proteins to the complicated mixture of blood serum and cell culture media. Similarly, the nanomaterial sources vary from spherical titanium dioxide, gold, and polystyrene nanoparticles to novel nanowires of gallium arsenide
Automated Software testing is becoming increasingly popular, which in turn creates more information that has to be analyzed. At the software company Qlik a tool called NIOCAT is used to create clusters of failed test cases thought to originate from the same code defect. The clustering is done in order to decrease the ever increasing amount of manual analysis needed to be done with regards to softw
Increasing issues related to agriculture are being identified. To counter these issues, some type of methods of agriculture are being introduced and reintroduced, such as agroecology. With its focus on practices, sciences and social movement, agroecology is considered as a promising solution to bring a paradigm change to agriculture as we know today and to provide better quality food, produced in
1 LÄRANDE I LTH Detta nummer av Lärande i LTH innehåller en artikel om övningsledare och laborationshandledare på LTH som vare sig har någon lärar-, forskar- eller doktorandanställning, men som trots detta står för en betydande del av undervisningen. Artikeln handlar om de studenter som arbetar med undervisning och mer specifikt hur de upplever den introduktion till tillämpad universitetspedagogik

This qualitative study applies to young men between the ages of 18 and 21 who live in community homes (HVB hem), and have an ongoing substance abuse and addiction problem. The focus will be on the motivation and treatment that from the young men's perspective promotes the process of change to start a life without addiction. This activity, which fulfills an incredibly essential function in soci
A small Mesolithic campsite near Sammakko in northernmost Sweden has been identified through its abundance of burnt bone and quartz refuse from stone tool manufacturing/ maintenance. Radiocarbon dating places hunter-gatherer activity here around 8900 years ago, 1800 years later than the oldest known settlement in Norrbotten, the Aareavaara site. Sediment stratigraphy in nearby lake basins suggests
