The unitary patent package (Regulation 1257/2012 creating a unitary patent protection (UPR) , Regulation 1260/2012 on language regime creating a unitary patent protection (UPRL) , and the Agreement on a Unified Patent Court (UPCA) ) will make it possible to apply for a single patent (European patent with unitary effect or EPUE) at the non-EU European Patent Office (EPO) in Munich. EPUE will cover
In this project, an optical technique called gas in scattering media absorption spectroscopy (GASMAS) has been employed to investigate optical properties in scattering media such as food packages and wood materials. The GASMAS technique has been combined with a technique called frequency domain photon migration (FDPM) and from the integrated system the gas absorption signal and total optical path
Är hela världen, hela universum, endast ett hologram? Sent förra året (2013) publicerade en grupp fysiker sitt resultat från två simuleringar vilket kan vara början på att svara på frågan. Den första räknade ut observabler så som det radiella avståndet till händelsehorisonten, entropi med flera, baserat på strängteori. Den andra simuleringen beräknar en liknande sak fast i ett universum med lägre We take a look at the properties of scalar fields in anti--de--Sitter space in five dimensions. More specifically we define bulk--to--boundary and bulk--to--bulk propagators for a five--dimensional scalar field and use these to calculate four--point functions. Finally we take a look at two--point functions and three--point functions and numerically calculate masses, residues and decay constants fo
Jag har genomfört en studie med hjälp av kvalitativ textanalys för att utreda vad det innebär att bli frihetsberövad i Sverige idag, hur de två största partierna i Sverige anser att kriminalpolitiken bör bedrivas, samt vad häkten i dagsläget gör för att bryta intagnas isolering på häkten. Mitt resultat visar att de två största politiska partierna i Sverige idag inte har behandling och vård som hjä
The first aim of this study is to investigate what it takes for a nonprofit association (NPA) to become a legal entity, specifically regarding requirements addressing decision-making organs within the NPA’s organization. Secondly, since within the legal framework of associations there exist general principles of law, this study also explores which general principles of law are applicable to a gene
Objective: The purpose of the present thesis is to enrich the robustness of a statistical atrioventricular (AV) node model during atrial Fibrillation (AF). The model takes into account electrophysiological properties as the two pathways, their refractory periods and concealed conduction; these pathways are located between sinoatrial (SA) and AV node. It is highly desirable understanding of the AV
In tomorrow's vehicle industry vehicles will have the ability to communicate and cooperate with each other in order to avoid collisions and provide useful information to each other. However, for this cooperation to be possible all vehicles will have to be equipped with compatible wireless 802.11p modules that implement the ITS-G5 standard. During the implementation phase of the system there wi
Syfte: Studien ämnar undersöka ifall sambandet mellan nyckeltal och kreditbetyg kan påvisas vara starkare än vad tidigare forskning fastställt samt om sambandet skiljer sig före och efter finanskrisen 2007-2008. Studien ämnar även, i samma kontext, undersöka nyckeltalens olika inverkan på att få ett A eller högre i kreditbetyg samt om det finns en skillnad av denna inverkan före och efter den glob
The purpose of this thesis is to explore food safety risk perceptions of students at Peking University and to what extent they influence their food consumption behaviour. Apart from existing research about food safety and consumer behaviour, the study relied on findings from thirteen interviews and participant observation. Since much of food safety involves risks, Ulrich Beck’s risk society theory
Where the dust in a protoplanetary disk is as the disk evolves over time is essential to know for further studies of the planet formation process. A new star is created alongside a stellar nebula. The nebula contains rock, ice and gas which are not accreted to the star. Our nebula is constructed using the Minimum Mass Solar Nebula model and the column density is studied as the protoplanetary disk
This study politicises transportation planning by applying a socioenvironmental justice perspective on the case of Bypass Stockholm. The theoretical framework includes nature-society and time-space relationships, socioenvironmental justice, and urban transportation concepts. Qualitative interviews, text analyses, and quantitative mapping of geographical distributions of social data are performed i
Understanding how asset classes and systematic strategies behave and perform during different macroeconomic environments is essential for an efficient asset allocation process. The aim of this thesis is to find a method to systematize the current understanding of the relationship between asset performance and environments. We will present a way to define different macroeconomic environments, asses

We study the determinants of corporate CDS spreads for 125 companies headquartered in the Eurozone, with an emphasis on sovereign CDS spreads as a main determinant of corporate CDS spreads in levels and changes. This is done by analyzing financial companies, as well as non-financial companies. The period of analysis is from January 2004 to April 2014, which has been divided into 3 sub-periods; bef
Detta arbete handlar om möjligheterna att finna beboeliga månar som kretsar kring planeter runt andra stjärnor än vår egen sol - så kallade exomånar. Själva undersökningen är en analys av över 5000 planeter från onlinearkivet exoplanets.org, för att se hur många av dessa som skulle kunna ha månar som stödjer liv. Även om majoriteten av fokuset i sökandet efter utomjordiskt liv har legat på exoplThis is an analysis of all the planets at exoplanets.org, with the goal of finding out how many of these that could possibly have moons supporting life. I have first calculated the ranges of the habitable zones (HZ:s) for the stars in the archive, using the Runaway Greenhouse model for the inner limit, and the Maximum Greenhouse model for the outer limit, as presented by Kopparapu et al. (2013A).
This paper aims to investigate whether there is a need for two regulations since Chapter 16 Section 9 of the Penal Code and the Discrimination Act from 2009 both regulate the same area of discrimination. The first regulation, Chapter 16 Section 9 of the Penal Code, regulates unlawful discrimination based on the grounds of race, colour, ethnic origin or sexual orientation. The second regulation, thUppsatsen syftar till att utreda om det finns ett behov av både 16 kap 9§ BrB och Diskrimineringslagen från år 2009 eftersom de behandlar samma diskrimineringsområde. 16 kap 9§ BrB reglerar olaga diskriminering baserat på ras, hudfärg, etnicitet och sexuell läggning. DiskL reglerar samma diskrimineringsgrunder som 16 kap 9§ BrB, men även funktionshinder, kön och ålder. Uppsatsen avser även att und
The Lisbon Treaty has made Policy Coherence for Development a legal obligation for the EU, thus the Union’s has a clear institutionalised commitment to makes sure that non-aid policies are not undermining the objectives in the development policy. EU’s energy policy with the 10% target of biofuels in the transport sector have been a point of great debate. Biofuels have been contested both within th
