Vid avtalsförhandlingar mellan privata näringsidkare kan det vara nödvändigt att utlämna hemlig information för att avtal ska kunna komma till stånd. Information och kunskap utgör ofta centrala tillgångar i ett företag och möjligheten att skydda sådana tillgångar i avtalsförhållanden kan vara av avgörande betydelse vid affärsuppgörelser. I detta avseende spelar sekretessavtal en viktig roll inom nIn contract negotiations between commercial parties, it may be necessary to disclose confidential information to establish a contractual relationship. Information and knowledge are often key assets of a business, and the ability to protect these assets may be crucial for the contracting parties. In this respect, confidentiality agreements play an important role in commercial relationships. In the

Uppsatsens syfte är att utreda vilka möjligheter det finns att ingå ett avtal trots parts passivitet. Begreppet passivitet används i betydelsen underlåtenhet att agera när part, under en process till synes syftande till att avtal ska ingås, normalt kan förväntas agera genom en positiv viljeförklaring, ett nekande eller ett förtydligande. Innan passivitetsfrågan behandlas närmare presenteras den The purpose of this essay is to investigate the possibilities of entering into a binding agreement despite the passivity of one of the parties. The term passivity is used to denote the lack of action when a party, during a process with the apparent aim of entering into an agreement, typically can be expected to act through a declaration of intent, a refusal or a clarification. Before a closer en

Problemställning: Cementproduktionen står idag för ca 5% av världens koldioxidutsläpp, vilket har stor negativ påverkan på klimatet. För att minska utsläppen behöver cementanvändningen reduceras genom t.ex. ersätta cement med andra material, såsom flygaska, mald granulerad masugnsslagg och kalcinerad lera. Syfte: Syftet är att undersöka den maximala vol.% cement som kan ersättas med flygaska, slaProblem: The production of cement stands today for approximately 5% of the world total emission of carbon dioxide, which has negative impact on the environment. In order to reduce the emission, the use of cement has to be reduced by e.g. replacing some of the cement with other materials. Purpose: The purpose is to find the maximum amount of fly ash, slag and calcined clay that can be used in conc

Despite the increased focus on sustainable urban development both within academia and in urban planning practices, authors seem to agree that we are mostly continuing business as usual and are not embarking on different socio-environmental trajectories. On the contrary, such urban sustainability practices can often lead to processes of displacement and gentrification, thus worsening the conditions

The frequency of two external cavity diode lasers tuned to the two transitions at 410 nm and 451 nm of indium are stabilized in this thesis. A hollow cathode lamp of indium atoms is used as a low pressure source of indium atoms in the locking process. Two frequency stabilization methods, wavelength modulation spectroscopy (WMS) and polarization spectroscopy (PS), are used in the thesis for the las

Kolloider är partiklar i storleksordningen nm till μm. De är viktiga i biologiska system, där exempelvis proteiner är en typ av kolloid. Att studera kolloider ger oss därför insikt i hur till exempel proteiner byggs upp och interagerar. I detta fall försökte vi tillverka kolloidala molekyler, alltså kolloider som interagerar med varandra genom ett specifikt antal bindningar i väl definierade positThe ability of thermoresponsive, amine-functionalized microgel particles to take part in microgelmicrogel inter-cross-linking has previously been reported in the literature, in connection to applications such as for example the formation of stimuli-responsive colloidal gels and colloidosomes [1]. This thesis deals with the synthesis of such thermoresponsive, cross-linkable microgels and their subs

In recent times, as the construction industry moves towards high-rise structures, under seas tunnels and mega infrastructure projects, companies face hard time managing the construction that continuously evolves for achieving new methods of engineering and supervision. Depending on the size and sensitivity of the project, the owners choose the construction company; i.e. mega projects require mega

Building sustainable, collaborative solutions to contemporary sustainability challenges requires a new generation of future professionals or ‘change-agents,’ the engagement of non-academic stakeholders, and academic facilitation. Educational reform is needed in order to enhance students’ competencies in becoming effective sustainability professionals. Effective collaborative platforms have the pot

To be able to change gears in a transmission it is necessary to remove the torque when disengaging and engaging gears in order not to damage the teeth of the cogs. If the driving torque from the engine to the wheels is interrupted for a longer period of time it can be perceived as very uncomfortable for both the driver and passengers in the vehicle. A gear change can be divided into three main sta

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND: Two-step dilute acid hydrolysis of softwood, either as a stand-alone process or as pretreatment before enzymatic hydrolysis, is considered to result in higher sugar yields than one-step acid hydrolysis. However, this requires removal of the liquid between the two steps. In an industrial process, filtration and washing of the material between the two steps is difficult, as it

In order to reduce its environmental impact, the chemical industry no longer produces base chemicals such as ethylene, solely from fossil, but also from biomass-based feedstocks. However, a biomass option suitable for one region might not be as suitable for another region due to, e.g., long transport and the related environmental. Therefore, local biomass alternatives and the environmental impact

Popular Abstract in Swedish Mitralisklaffen (lat. valva mitralis; valva bicuspidalis) är den klaff i hjärtat som finns mellan vänster förmak och vänster kammare. Till utseendet liknar klaffen påvens huvudbonad, mitra, varifrån namnet härstämmar. Mitralisklaffen består av två segelliknande flikar (klaffblad) med en upphängningsapparat som fäster sig i vänster-kammarens vägg. När vänster kammare konNormalization of life expectancy after mitral valve surgery is highly dependent on early diagnosis and referral for surgical treatment. Among cases treated surgically, the majority (60–70%) have a degenerative etiology, which is also easiest to repair. The general aim of this thesis was to bring research on treatment of degenerative mitral regurgitation a step further in order to improve clinical

The ongoing Europeanisation is readily identifiable in our day-to-day life. Particularly in the field of law, the elaboration of a uniform and harmonised European private law is promoted and a truly European legal science is forced. Yet, comparative law and unification of law have concentrated on certain areas, which include mainly commercial law and related areas of civil law. The main issue of t

This study aims to investigate how consumers perceive variety in grocery stores and further how private brands have affected consumers’ perceptions of variety in grocery stores.The study focuses on the perceptions and attitudes towards variety and the impact of private brands on perceived variety. Hence, a qualitative rather than quantitative study has been used. Photo elicitation has been used in

Problem statement This master thesis was initiated since today, when developing a new mobile phone at Sony Ericsson, it is difficult to get a perception of the ergonomics and the tactility of the keyboard before the first design prototype (DP0 and DP1) is built. The SLA block model used today is completely solid and consequently a secured decision of the final design can not be made in this phase
