In this thesis the encounter of the Catalan culture with the German culture at the Frankfurt Book Fair in 2007 is investigated. The leading research question is how the Catalan culture presented itself at the planned encounter with the German culture and how it was perceived by the latter. Semiotic analysis was conducted on the basis of newspaper articles from nine different newspapers analysing a
Denna uppsats behandlar uppsägningsgrunden arbetsbrist och begränsningar i arbetsgivarens arbetsledningsrätt vid uppsägning. Med arbetsbrist avses i lagens mening inte enbart brist på verkliga arbetsuppgifter för arbetstagarna utan även en mängd andra situationer där arbetstagare blir överflödiga. Lagen om anställningsskydd är, i situationer då arbetsbrist föreligger, inte tänkt att ge ett befattn
Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) images are used to investigate the heart for medical and research purposes. By injecting a contrast substance into the patient, myocardial infarctions (heart attacks) can be visualized in CMR image sets consisting of a number of image slices at different levels of the heart. Analysis of these images can detect an infarction, delineate it and estimate its size. This
The bike helmet is certainly a topic of current interest. From January the 1st 2005 it is mandated by law that children under 15 years old must use bike helmet when biking or being given a lift on a bike. There is an ongoing debate about the next step, to develop the law on bike helmet to apply for adult bicyclists as well. If a law like this would be established, the request on bike helmets would
Background: Sportsman's hernia/athletic pubalgia is a recognized cause of chronic groin pain in athletes. Both open and laparoscopic surgical repairs have been described for treatment, but there are no comparative studies. The hypothesis here was that relief of pain would be achieved earlier in patients treated with open minimal suture repair than totally extraperitoneal repair. Methods: A randomi
BACKGROUND: The heritability of venous thromboembolism (VTE) is only partially explained by variants in 17 previously VTE-associated genes.OBJECTIVE: This article screens for additional rare variants in the 17 genes and investigates the relative contributions of pro- and anticoagulant genes to VTE.PATIENTS AND METHODS: Ninety-six VTE patients from the population-based Malmö Thrombophilia Study
Neural transplantation in neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson’s disease (PD) offers to replace cells lost during the progression of the disease process. Primary fetal ventral mesencephalon (VM), the origin of bona fide midbrain dopaminergic (DAergic) precursors, is currently the gold standard source of cells for transplantation in PD. However, the use of tissue from this source raises eth

A number of different experiments on a dielectric elastomer, VHB 4910, were performed: uniaxial tensile strain tests, in situ SAXS/WAXS measurements of a sample under uniaxial tensile loading and DIC measurements of an electrically loaded circular sample with simultaneous force measurements around the circular boundary using a novel method developed in this thesis. The results are presented and an
Bitumen och dess egenskaper har länge ansetts vara den viktigaste faktorn för en asfalts funktion. Egenskaperna som finns är hos bitumen är relativt enkla att kontrollera. Eftersom egenskaperna är relativt lätta att kontrollera och mycket kunskap redan finns om bitumen har dess egenskaper ansetts vara det som är avgörande gällande hur en asfaltbeläggning kommer att agera då den brukas. MätmetodernBitumen and its properties have long been considered the most important factor in the function of asphalt. The attributes that are present in bitumen are relatively easy to control. Since the attributes are relatively easy to control and a lot of knowledge already exists of bitumen its attributes are considered to be the decisive factor in how an asphalt coating will act when it is being used. The
Hormonal therapy (HT) is one of the most frequently prescribed drug regimens for women after the age of 50 years. HT has been developed progressively since the 1960s to provide estrogen to those women (a) who require relief of symptoms which have resulted from reduced circulating estrogen or (b) to act as an anti-resorptive agent to counteract the effect of the increased bone turnover which occurs
Browning of water has increased over the last couple of decades on the northern hemisphere. Research show that possible drivers for this change are land use change, climate change, increased precipitation and increased temperatures. Browning of water can affect important interactions in the aquatic ecosystem which in turn can affect the whole structure of the ecosystem. Furthermore the loss of a t
Children that are born later in the year are, based on previous studies, more likely to be diagnosed with a neuropsychiatric disorder (hereby NPD), which is a bit surprising considering that NPDs are considered to be primarily genetic disorders. The aim of our study is to test the hypothesis that there is a correlation between being born later in the year and an increased prevalence of referrals f
The aim of the thesis was to build a test environment to be used by the company Cactus Uniview. The test environment should be a tool (software) for testers in the development department, the test environment should be able to ensure the quality of the tool Cactus Eye. Cactus Eye is connected to a PLCs and can be used to control many PLCs. Cactus Uniview uses a virtual test environment (entirely b
