The aim of this study is to highlight how the collaboration regarding youth criminals works between the police organization and the human service organization in a county in southern of Sweden. We have noticed that collaboration between organizatons can be difficult in our society because of things such as the organizations have different point of views on how they should collaborate, they have di
Sverige har en lång tradition av industriell verksamhet vilket har lett till att områden har förorenats. Jönköpings län har bland annat präglats av kvarnverksamhet där betning av utsäde bedrivits. Betning utfördes för att skydda sädeskornets ytskikt mot svampangrepp när det såddes ut på åkrarna. Betningsmedlet som användes var Panogen som är en metylkvicksilverförening. Användningen av detta betni
In order to predict the life expectancy for the tungsten target at the planned European spallation source, the fatigue properties of pure tungsten have been studied at room temperature and 300°C. Constant amplitude, stress controlled fatigue tests have been performed to investigate high cycle fatigue and cyclic hardening effects have been studied using multistep, strain controlled fatigue tests. T
One of the major problems of our society is the increasing air pollution in urban environments. The reason is the increasing population, urbanization and globalization. The underlying cause of the many health issues that derive from bad air quality, is the common unawareness of the air quality indoors. In many cases, this results in a long-term exposure for unhealthy chemical particles before any
This paper examines the effects of an income tax cut on economic growth. The way it is examined is twofold; in part through an increased savings rate and in part through increased inequalities. The former one is considered a more direct effect of the tax cut whereas the last one is considered a more indirect effect. The income tax cut is investigated under the assumptions of the Solow growth model
Tillgången till rent dricksvatten varierar mellan olika delar i världen. Till exempel är grundvat- ten en stor resurs i Sverige där det står för 50 % av dricksvattnet, både artificiellt och naturligt bildat. Den siffran är endast 6 % i Moçambique och med tanke på att 47 % av populationen i landet saknar rent dricksvatten kan artifici- ell grundvattenbildning vara ett bra alternativ. Det finns olikThe amount of clean drinking water varies across different parts of the world. For example is groundwa- ter a big resource in Sweden and stands for 50% of the drinking water, both artificially and naturally recharged. The corresponding fraction is only about 6% in Mozambique and considering that 47% of the population in Mozam- bique lacks clean drinking water artificial recharge might be a good op
This project was conducted during the spring of 2013 at the IMEP-LAHC laboratory in Grenoble, as part of their research into the electrical and optical properties of ZnO/CdTe-based radial nanowire array solar cells. Simulations with different transport mechanisms and physical properties of the semiconductors were made and compared to experimentally acquired data. It was confirmed that the nanowire
There are large differences in income level and growth across the members of the European and Monetary Union, and the differences are even larger at a regional level. As integration intensifies an important question is whether the disparities in terms of per capita incomes will diminish. The purpose of the paper is to empirically test the hypothesis of per capita income convergence among 144 NUTS-
This essay investigates the Russian position towards Kosovo’s declaration of independence. Russia chose not to recognize Kosovo and I try to examine why by reading articles in three Russian newspapers. I examine the articles by using three different theoretical approaches, inspired by previous research and scientific literature in this field. These approaches consist of the ideas that the Russian
Since book covers have become the focus of critical attention only in few recent years, there is a small number of studies published that examine the interaction between the text and the book cover. This interaction seems to be especially significant in the case of autobiographies as there are at least two ways for the author to present himself: as the narrator of the text and as the subject visua
Tomotherapy delivers intensity modulated radiation therapy, IMRT, which enables highly advanced treatment plans with homogenous absorbed dose coverage of the target with sharp dose gradients to spare surrounding healthy tissue. Helical tomotherapy consists of a linear accelerator mounted on a rotating gantry, the construction is similar to a CT although the energy is in the MV-range instead of kV
Cloud based services known as ”Software as a Service” has in the past few years become very popular in the IT industry. Hence it is not surprising that the concept also has reached the security industry and the market for camera surveillance, where the concept ”Video Surveillance as a Service” (VSaaS) has become a buzzword. This is much because of new business opportunities for the vendors and eas

It aims to develop theoretical tools to further understand masculinity and
Background Coronary artery disease is one of the most common causes of death. A common cardiac examination is to give a visualization of the myocardial blood flow by injecting a radio pharmaceutical and detect the radiation with a camera. The camera has for decades been using thallium doped sodium iodide (NaI(Tl)) as the detector material. New detector materials have been developed because of the
Framställandet av kön i reklam är ett komplext och omdiskuterat ämne inom kommunikationsforskningen. Denna studie ämnar analysera hur kvinnan framställs i TV-reklam för en traditionellt manlig produkt. Studien tar hänsyn till hur reklam påverkar kvinnans ställning i samhället, men även hur ett samhälles kultur påverkar hur kvinnan framställs i reklam. Studien utgår ifrån Hofstedes Maskulinitetsind
The subculture of heavy metal has often been perceived as a counterculture to the leading mainstream cultural expressions and paradigms. In the light of globalization the heavy metal culture has spread to far off places around the world from its origin in the West. The Georgian heavy metal culture began developing in the last two decades since the fall of the Soviet Union, when new influences and
