This thesis is about the scope of protection for the right to strike. Despite the fundamental nature of the right in protecting the dignity of the worker and achieving social justice, the level of protection of the right to strike differs in different jurisdictions around the world claiming detrimental effects of strikes to the society and different stake-holders. Inspired by the longest rail work

Rapporten utgör en undersökning av hur konsumtion påverkar hyresnivån för butikslokaler inom en marknadsplats. Det finns flera olika faktorer som påverkar hyresnivån för butikslokaler, men avgränsning har gjorts till att undersöka omsättning då den utgör en avgörande parameter. För fastighetsägare är det av största vikt att veta hur butiken går försäljningsmässigt för att kunna sätta en marknadsenThe report represents a survey of how consumption affects the level of rents for retail space in a marketplace. The demarcation has been done to examine the revenue when it is a crucial parameter. For property owners, it is vital to know how the shop runs in sales terms in order to set a rent. The report includes an analysis of two municipalities, Lund and Helsingborg, where a survey of two market

Structural variables have been incapable of providing a fully satisfactory answer to why multilateral conferences can fail one year but succeed the next. Scholars focusing on the role of the presidency have been more successful, but a sole focus on the presidency, which comprise one part of an organizational process, might give us a partial understanding of the procedural dynamics in place. The pr

As a part of the GrönNano project at Luleå University of Technology, a sustainable drainage system, composed of infiltration surfaces and a wale,has been subject to hydrological measurements and modeling. The aim of this study was to identify the conditions under which it is possible to model the hydrological processes of that system adequately, using the two-dimensional hydrodynamic modeling soft

There is a great interest in trying to pin-point strain specific effects of probiotics on the immune system. The present study compared desirable immunomodulatory properties of newly isolated, novel probiotic strains of different species in a mouse Peyer’s Patch (PP) cell model in vitro, mainly focusing on their ability to affect the population of CD4+FoxP3+ regulatory T cells (Treg), and in incre

Denna uppsats undersöker svenska judars utsatthet, trygghet och upplevda risk. Undersökningen har gjorts genom en kombination av kvantitativ och kvalitativ metod. Syftet med uppsatsen är att presentera deskriptiv statistisk dataanalys och att nyansera och få djupare förståelse för denna genom kvalitativa utsagor. Det empiriska materialet har teoretiserats utifrån en kombination av konventionella t

This thesis studies protection as integral to security. Protection has been used to keep women from the ‘public sphere’ and abused by peacekeepers and patriarchs alike, suggesting that being protected is not synonymous with being safe but can cause violence and exclusion. From that contradiction, I ask how the concepts of protection and security are produced, and to what effects for (gender) equal

The conflict in Ukraine is not only a conflict in a strictly traditional or material sense, in terms of a quest for territory or over military power. Rather, it is a conflict where the battlefield is located in the United Nations Security Council, and the battle is a verbal war between ambassadors and diplomats about conflicting narratives and how the conflict should be defined. In this thesis, a

Validation of gene × environment interaction results from epidemiological studies in randomized clinical trials (RCTs) is usually hampered by insufficient statistical power. Genotype-based recall (GBR) refers to the design of studies in which subgroups of the population are selected based on their genotypes. In this thesis we test if a GBR approach of recruiting two groups of participants with dis

Energipålar är grundläggningspålar kombinerade med kollektorslangar som används som vertikala markvärmeväxlare. De har sedan 1980-talet använts i Centraleuropa, och används även frekvent i England. I Sverige har energipålar ännu inte slagit igenom, men de större byggföretagen börjar nu intressera sig för denna typ av grundläggning. En fördel med energipålar jämfört med konventionella bergvärmebruEnergy piles are deep foundation piles combined with collector pipes. They are used as vertical ground heat exchangers, and have been used since the 1980s in Central Europe and frequently in England. Energy piles have not yet had its breakthrough in Sweden, but right now the bigger construction companies have turned their eyes to this type of deep foundation. One advantage with energy piles, when

The EES, Lisbon and Europe 2020 are the most relevant soft law strategies promoting the improvement of work-family reconciliation-related policies in the EU Member States. In this study, the cases of the German Elterngeld reforms are applied to scrutinise the influences of these three strategies on domestic policy-making. Thus, this research work is based on the theoretical framework of soft Europ

Recent years has seen an increase in the support for the radical right all over Europe, Sweden not excluded. The debate has ranged from the dangers of islamization, to the slightly more philosophic question as to who is to be part of the nation. However, at the other side of the world, another form of nationalism, one seldom discussed, is seemingly growing in strength and consequences – the Buddhi

FilP- Ett protein med förstärkande egenskaper Bakterier finns i alla möjliga former och storlekar. Ett släkte bakterier som alla har varit i kontakt med, de flesta utan att veta om det, är Streptomyces. Streptomyces är en jordlevande bakterie som bildar ett nätverk av långa hyfer och är orsaken till att jord luktar som den gör. Men det är inte för sin jorddoft som Streptomyces är mest känd, det ä

Accurate channel estimation is crucial for the design and implementation of effective equalization and beamforming techniques, contributing to the overall performance of wireless communication systems. This paper presents a novel approach for channel estimation based on an unknown system identification technique. The underlying idea is to employ the processing-in-memory (PIM) technique to implemen

Solid organ transplantation has progressed rapidly over the decades from the first experimental procedures to its role in the modern era as an established treatment for end-stage organ disease. Solid organ transplantation including liver, kidney, pancreas, heart, and lung transplantation, is the definitive option for many patients, but despite the advances that have been made, there are still sign

An accident on a passenger ferry may lead to evacuation using lifeboats or liferafts, a process that can be both complex and hazardous. This paper investigates the level of safety for passengers during evacuation based on field study and interview data. In the analysis, the eight goals of Universal Design (UD) were tailored and used to explore what ship and interior characteristics influence evacu

Introduction Efficacy trials show that evidence-based injury prevention training reduces injuries in youth athletes but effectiveness, that is, outside the controlled setting, is lower and, consequently this training has had limited public health impact. Insufficient involvement of end-users at the individual and organisational levels is identified as a main barrier to successful implementation. T

Purpose: Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) can be classified into distinct histological subtypes based on the WHO nomenclature. The aim of this study was to compare the prognosis of conventional PDAC (cPDAC) against the other histological variants at the population level. Methods: The Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) database was used to identify patients with microscopicall
