On the basis of data from Swedish, this thesis investigates the Small Clause Hypothesis put forth by Kush et al. (2013). The hypothesis is suggested to account for the rare possibility of relative clause extraction, a phenomenon that poses a challenge for syntactic theories of locality. In brief, the hypothesis states that the possibility to extract from relative clauses is restricted to cases whe
Background The fierce competition in the telecom industry makes operators heavily invest in acquiring new customers. This is most often done with marketing campaigns and subsidies of handsets. But to be truly profitable, it is crucial not only to attract new customers, but also to make sure they retain with the company for as long time as possible. This turns the mobile operators’ attention to cus
Geoenergi är en av de energikällor som fått allt mer uppmärksamhet på marknaden de senaste åren. Geoenergi kommer från två naturliga källor i marken; I huvudsak lagrad energi från solen och en liten del geotermisk värme från jordens inre. Sett ur ett anläggningsperspektiv är potentialen för geoenergi stor, eftersom det svenska klimatet med varma somrar och kalla vintrar, samt fördelaktig geologi, Geothermal energy is a renewable energy source that has achieved more attention from the market in recent years. Geothermal energy comes from two natural sources in the ground; stored energy from the sun and geothermal heat from the centre of the Earth. From a system perspective, the potential for geothermal energy is large, as the Swedish climate with hot summers and cold winters, as well as suit
Summary This master thesis evaluates the benefits of using multi-echelon control instead of single-echelon control of a multi-echelon inventory system. The multi-echelon inventory system studied in this thesis is a one-warehousemultiple- retailer inventory system. Multi-echelon inventory control is defined as a method to optimize the inventory system by taking the interdependencies between differe
Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka hur försäkringsvillkor ska tolkas när tvist om detta uppstår mellan försäkringstagaren och försäkringsbolaget. Det finns inget klart svar på denna fråga men en rad tolkningsmetoder har utvecklats genom praxis. Till skillnad från vid vanlig avtalstolkning har den subjektiva tolkningsmetoden inte någon framträdande betydelse vid tolkning av försäkringsvillkoThe aim of this paper is to examine how insurance provisions are to be interpreted in the event of a dispute over them arising between the insured and the insurer. There is no clear answer to this question but a number of methods for interpretation have been developed in case-law. As opposed to the traditional interpretation of contracts, the subjective method of interpretation has no important ro
Popular Abstract in Swedish Samhällets stöd, service och vård till människor med psykiska funktionshinder har under de senaste decennierna genomgått stora förändringar. Det har skett en övergång från slutna till samhällsbaserade öppna vårdformer. De kraftiga nedskärningarna av den sjukhusbaserade psykiatriska vården har emellertid långt ifrån alltid ersatts med ett heltäckande och fungerande vård-All clients admitted to ten pilot case management services for individuals with severe mental illness during 1995 and up to 1996-09-30 were invited to participate in the present study. A total of 176 clients were included. The clients were in all services assessed at admission and at an 18 months follow-up with regard to needs of care, psychosocial functioning. Use of health care and social servic
Introduction and objectives Children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) have an increased risk of sleep problems. Weighted blankets are one possible non-pharmacological intervention for these problems in this group of children. However, the effectiveness of weighted blankets is insufficiently investigated. This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of weighted blankets in t
Flame front structure is one of the most fundamental characteristics and, hence, vital for understanding combustion processes. Measuring flame front structure in turbulent flames usually needs laser-based diagnostic techniques, mostly planar laser-induced fluorescence (PLIF). The equipment of PLIF, burdened with lasers, is often too sophisticated to be configured in harsh environments. Here, to sh
An enhanced flamelet generated manifold (FGM) model for large eddy simulation (LES) of turbulent spray combustion is presented. In the enhanced FGM model, a transported probability density function (TPDF) description of the FGM variables is employed. The TPDF is represented using the Eulerian stochastic fields (ESF) approach, and the method is applied to LES of spray combustion under conditions re
In ecology, multifunctionality metrics measure the simultaneous performance of multiple ecosystem functions. If species diversity describes the variety of species that together build the ecosystem, multifunctionality attempts to describe the variety of functions these species perform. A range of methods have been proposed to quantify multifunctionality, successively attempting to alleviate problem
Serum prostate-specific antigen is credited with dramatic advances in the early detection, screening, and management of men with prostatic carcinoma. There has been more than a twofold increase in the number of men diagnosed during the last decade, and prostate cancer has emerged as the most common non-skin cancer and the second leading cause of cancer death in men. This report summarizes the hist
Aims: To determine the ophthalmological outcome at 6.5 years of age in children treated for retinopathy of prematurity (ROP), and registered in the national Swedish National Register for ROP register. Methods: Data on ROP, treatment and ophthalmological outcome were retrieved from the register. Visual acuity (VA), refractive errors and strabismus, together with visual impairment (VI) and any signi
The chemical and biological conversion of biomass-derived lignin is a promising pathway for producing valuable low molecular weight aromatic chemicals, such as vanillin or guaiacol, known as lignin monomers (LMs). Various methods employing chromatography and electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry (ESI–MS) have been developed for LM analysis, but the impact of LM chemical properties on analytica
Observed rotational bands that terminate or appear to terminate at very high spin are analyzed within the configuration constrained cranked Nilsson-Strutinsky (unpaired CNS or CNSB with pairing) formalism. Spin values for the nuclei discussed reach or come close to the maximum spin that can be built within the Z,N=50-82 shells. Configurations are distinguished not only by the number of particles i
It has been shown in several previous studies that the implementation of risk-reducing interventions or adoption of safer behaviours is considerably less amongst individuals with low sociodemographic status. In turn, this has led to an increasing inequality of mortality risk and a considerable challenge for societal actors. Decreasing economic hurdles, that is, making safety interventions cheaper,
