Popular Abstract in Swedish I denna avhandling undersöks på vilka sätt en juridisk och individuell rättighet som personlig assistans för människor med omfattande funktionshinder, kan förverkligas. Personlig assistans infördes 1994, som en del av lagen om stöd och service till vissa funktionshindrade (LSS). Avhandlingen fokuserar på hur förverkligandet kan ske främst genom lagstiftning, men också iThis thesis examines in what way a legal and a personal right can be realized regarding Personal Assistance to people with severe impairments. Personal Assistance was introduced in 1994 as part of Act concerning Support and Service for Persons with Certain functional Impairments (abbreviated LSS after the Swedish title of the Act). The investigation is focused on how this can be done particularly

Popular Abstract in Swedish Miljömarknadsföring och miljömanagement. En undersökning av sambandet mellan miljöorientering och försäljning av ekologiska produkter samt försäljning generellt inom svensk dagligvaruhandel.The purpose of this thesis was to develop a conceptual framework of food retailers’ ecological orientation that considers the interaction between ecological marketing and ecological management. In this context, the relationship was examined between ecological orientation and sales of ecological food products and the overall store performance of Swedish food retailers. To fulfil this purpose eco-or

A simple analytical model for the link loss between two very low profile wireless body area network transceivers located at the same level on the human torso is presented. The model is based on the attenuation of the creeping waves on an elliptical approximation of the human torso. A good agreement between the model and the FDTD simulations on realistic heterogeneous phantoms of different age and

Debates around gender and sexuality currently inform important negotiations of citizenship and belonging in Canada. In this chapter, we broadly outline main areas of research in the social sciences for Canadianists from German-speaking countries. We focus on two separate but interrelated themes that have recently gained a particular salience in Canadian society and politics: 1) Gender and the oste

Popular Abstract in Swedish Alla levande celler omges av membran, som reglerar dess kontakt med omgivningen. Cellmembran består av flera sorters lipider men även av kolhydrater och ett stort antal proteiner med olika funktion. Lipider är en grupp av molekyler som har ett hydrofilt (vattenälskande) huvud och en hydrofob (vattenavstötande) svans. I en omgivning lik den i kroppens celler d.v.s. beståThe work presented in the thesis “RNA in model lipid membranes- interactions in bulk and at surfaces” aims to characterize the interaction between RNA and model membranes with different properties as well as to determine if ssRNA associate with model membranes in different ways. Several techniques have been used to characterize these systems, including quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation

The aim of this paper is to discuss the implications a complexity perspective may have on the management of logistics. The CLM definition of logistics management is used as a base to address the implications a complexity perspective has on the logistics discipline. A framework is developed to assess the logistics complexity based on significant properties (structure, dynamics and adaptation) on th

This chapter discusses the term solidarity in relation to knowledge, and the existing tension between a vital women’s movement on the one hand, and a feminist academic theory on the other. The raise of a highly capitalist and neoliberal notion of feminism, a sort of “free market feminism” is restricting and limiting the space for solidarity in feminist politics and theory. Jodi Dean’s term reflexi

Popular Abstract in Swedish Bakgrund: Öroninflammation är vanligt förekommande i barnaåren. De flesta barn har haft minst en episod med akut varig öroninflammation (AOM) och/eller en period med vätska i mellanörat (SOM) före skolstart. De flesta får enstaka episoder, frekvensen av AOM avtar i 2-års åldern och frekvensen av SOM avtar före skolstart. Efter en AOM episod är det vanligt att man under Objective: Most preschool children have suffered from at least one episode of acute otitis media (AOM) and/or secretory otitis media (SOM). Some children have frequent AOM episodes and/or prolonged and recurrent episodes of secretory otitis media (SOM). The long-term out-come and sequelae are not fully clarified. Subjects and methods: Out of a birth cohort followed to the age of 3 years, 12 child

In this paper it is shown how a convolutional code can be used either to detect errors or to correct erasures. The erasure correction is related to the error detection. Using the active burst distance lower bounds on the error and erasure correction as well as error detection are obtained for convolutional codes.
