Magnesium corrosion in an aqueous environment is a multi-layer, complex process. A literature survey shows significant gaps and the modelling work reported indicates a lack of clarity in understanding the corrosion process. Studies on the effects of impurities and interfacial compounds formed by selected alloying additions would help in filling some of these gaps. Further, the evolution of hydro
This essay presents an intertextual analysis of three short stories by Argentinian writer Jorge Luis Borges; “The Garden of Forking Paths” (1941), “The South” (1944), and “The End” (1944). The analysis explores the possibility of using the philosophical ideas concerning bifurcations in time as presented in “ The Garden of Forking Paths” to reinterpret the other two short stories, given that these
I upphandlingsmål ska officialprincipen tillämpas på ett försiktigt sätt. Syftet med uppsatsen är att söka klarhet i om det införts en åberopsbörda i upphandlingsmål likt den som finns för dispositiva tvistemål samt hur en eventuell åberopsbörda samspelar med officialprincipen. Uppsatsen ämnar besvara två frågeställningar: hur kan vi förstå förvaltningsprocessens regler i FPL samt praxis i förhållThe thesis aims to determine if a burden of proof exists in public procurement cases. Further, the aim is to investigate how a possible burden of proof interacts with the ex officio inquiry principle . By using a legal dogmatic method, the thesis will answer two questions. How do the rules in FPL and Swedish case law compare to the burden of proof in the Swedish Code of Judicial Procedure (RB)? Ho
Den religiösa seden att omskära pojkar är mycket omdiskuterad. Den ena gruppen ställer sig bakom föräldrarnas rätt till religionsfrihet, den andra ställer sig bakom pojkars rätt till kroppslig autonomi och religionsfrihet, det vill säga rätten att inte bli omskuren. I denna uppsats kommer dessa intressen att beaktas ur ett EKMR-perspektiv. Europadomstolen har ännu inte prövat ett fall om pojkars rThe religious practice to circumcise boys is widely debated. One group is siding with the parental right to freedom of religion. The other is siding with boys’ right to bodily autonomy and freedom of religion, that is, not to be circumcised. In this thesis, these interests will be considered from the perspective of the ECHR. The ECtHR is yet to try a case regarding boys’ right or lack thereof not
Language and gesture are two semiotic systems that work together in close integration during communication. One issue in particular, that of image schemas, has been studied in relation to gestures, though most often in adult gesture and communication (Williams, forthcoming; Cienki, 2013; Mittelberg, 2006, 2018). This contrasts with mimetic schemas, which are thought to be more specific structures
The power of the buyers: the consumer’s role as an economic and political being in Kooperativa Förbundet, c. 1898 — 1924 The aim of this study is to present the role of the consumer in the Swedish consumer cooperative union, Kooperativa Förbundet, c. 1898 — 1924. The study follows three of KF:s most prominent figures during the period: G.H. von Koch, Martin Sundell and Anders Örne, referred to in
The upgrade of transport infrastructure may stimulate regional economic growth and reshape the industrial structure. It may also increase economic gaps between regional giants and peripheral areas through “siphon effect”. This paper uses the Difference-in-Differences (DID) model to examine the correlation between the operation of China high-speed railway (HSR) and changes in real per capita GDP, r
Popular Summary Wildfire events are expected to increase with the changing climate; thereby increasing atmospheric, economic, and human health impacts. A better understanding of the evolution of wildfire events can benefit regional meteorology models and global atmospheric models. Because of this, an attempt at modeling the evolution of wildfire was undertaken using 8 years of daily meteorologica
In June 2013 the Commission published its consultation paper “Towards more effective EU merger control” whereby the Commission was seeking to i) extend the scope of the EU merger control to the acquisition of non-controlling minority shareholdings and ii) reform the referral system. The paper proposed several options on how to successfully achieve the set objectives without creating undue burdens
Background: There is an internal belief within Axis that despite their products’ relatively high initial price, the total cost of ownership (TCO) of an Axis camera solution is lower than that of other brands. However, there is no internal research or tools to verify if it is true. Without this, Axis is unable to communicate their belief in an educated and quantifiable way, which is desired in
Reflektionsseismik har använts i forsknings- och prospekteringsändamål sedan första halvan av 1900-talet. De moderna undersökningar som utförs idag behandlar hela datainsamlingsförloppet digitalt och färdig-behandlad data tillgängliggörs sedan för geologisk tolkning i moderna datorprogram. Det finns dock en stor före-komst av äldre seismisk reflektionsdata som sparats ned på numera omoderna formatSeismic reflection data has been collected for more than half a century for both scientific and industrial purposes. Data sampled in modern surveys are collected, processed and stored digitally. There are, however, large quantities of vintage seismic reflection data that since its original use has been stored away and remains difficult to access in its current form. This data was acquired when it
Senare forskning kring fysisk aktivitet och träning visar en klar bild av dess positiva effekter på såväl kropp som sinne. Trots detta är en stor del av befolkningen fast i en stillasittande vardag. Denna studie har undersökt faktorer som ligger bakom ens motivation att träna. Denna uppsats har med hjälp av Expectancy-Value-teorin undersökt vilka träningsrelaterade mål som urvalet värderar högt ocRecent research on physical activity and exercise reveals a clear picture of its positive effects on both body and mind. Despite this, a large part of the population is stuck in a sedentary lifestyle. This study has examined factors behind one’s motivation to exercise. By using the Expectancy-Value Theory we’ve examined which exercise-related goals people value most, and to what degree they think
Idrottens rättsliga ställning inom EU och hur EU-rättsliga regler ska appliceras på idrottens område är en fråga som debatterats flitigt i samband med idrottens ökade ekonomiska betydelse. Detta illustreras främst genom fotbollen som har kommit att växa till en mångmiljard industri som engagerar tusentals människor runt om i Europa. I samband med den professionella fotbollens ekonomiska tillväxt hSport's legal status in the EU and how EU law should be applied in sports is an issue that has been debated extensively in connection with the sport growing economic importance. This is illustrated primarily by the footballing market that has come to grow into a multi-billion dollar industry involving thousands of people around Europe. In connection with the professional football's economi
The democratic peace theory explains why liberal democratic states do not engage in war with one another. According to Michael Doyle, the theory rests on three pillars, which together explain the democratic peace - whereas one of which pillars is of interest for this thesis. The cosmopolitan pillar is concerned with the “spirit of commerce”, that is, international trade and economic interdependenc
In October 2016, the IACtHR issued the judgment of the case of Hacienda Brasil Verde Workers v Brazil. The case concerns the subjection of 85 workers to slavery-like conditions in a private-owned livestock farm located in the north of Brazil. Brasil Verde Workers v. Brazil was the first judgment of the IACtHR on the prohibition of slavery of article 6 ACHR. Moreover, it was also the first time tha
Social Engineering (SE) ses som ett stort hot mot organisationers IT-säkerhet. SE är en typ av icke-teknisk hackning som används för att manipulera individer att avslöja konfidentiell in-formation eller utföra handlingar som äventyrar person- eller organisationssäkerhet. En orga-nisation kan således inte skydda sig mot SE med enbart fysiska och tekniska skydd eftersom det är användaren som redan ä
With this research I have answered the twofold question of how Cuba played a part in the making of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, and what differences and similarities that can be found between the Cuban draft of Human Rights versus the final product of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Since there is no previous research in this field I have chosen to look at some of the most
The term Worst Credible Process Fire (WCPF) was introduced to the Norwegian Petroleum Industry as a complement to the probabilistic approach to define design loads for offshore facilities. Currently there are mainly two documents about the WCPF being the SINTEF report (2017) and the definition in NORSOK S-001 (2018). The WCPF concept have only been used within the industry for a few years and comb
