Background: The Stop rule for buying in property was introduced through 1976 years legislation and its formemost purpose was to prevent companies to acquire property that was useless for the company. Assets such as cars, boats and arts were of current interest. At the same time as this stop rule was introduced, another stop rule was also introduced and this was meant to work to forbid the partner to buy property from the close company to a price that would lead to sell at loss for the company. After a government decision (1999:2000, Abolished Stop rules) the close company is no longer living under this restriction since these two stop rules have been abolished since January 2001. Purpose: The purpose of this thesis is to investigate which criteria are the basis to judge whether the assets is to consider as useful or not for the close company.

The last years? financial situation has contributed to an increased willingness from the banks to handle risks. The most important risk to cope with is a risk that is related to a customer?s ability to repay loans. Forecasts indicate that in the future, Swedish farmers will be facing profitability challenges, which points to a need to reconsider the banks procedures considering risk management in credit granting for agricultural businesses.Today?s risk management will be given two complements in this study.

I och med de stora förändringar Försvarsmakten genomgått under omstruktureringen från det tidigareinvasionsförsvaret till insatsförsvaret har nya förutsättningar för och krav på personalförsörjningen avförbanden uppstått. Dagens värnpliktssystem är inte anpassat för att på ett effektivt sätt erbjuda underlagför bemanning av de insatsförband Försvarsmakten producerar idag. Möjligheten att i framtidenkontraktsanställa personal för tidsbegränsad tjänstgöring är en möjlig väg att personalförsörjamorgondagens svenska Försvarsmakt. Svenska flottan hade under första hälften av 1900-talet enorganisation som bestod av kontraktsanställda sjömän för tjänstgöring ombord på flottans stridsfartyg,sjömanskåren. Denna kår rekryterade ungdomar direkt från civil folkskola men även från en militärorganisation, skeppsgossekåren, som hade till uppgift att i tidig ålder rekrytera och utbilda ungdomar förtjänst ombord på fartyg.

AbstractAt Saltvikens copperindustry, which is located in the municipality of Oskarshamn, copper was refined from sulphiteore some hundred years ago. The ore underwent several steps in the process before the final product was received. These steps all had an influence on the environment through discharge of heavy metals. The area where the copper industry was located is today considered to be of specific national interest due to its valuable nature and cultural values, as well as its value for recreational outdoor activities. Therefore, it is important to determine the present level of contamination and if any transport of contaminants have occurred, and to identify the risks that are associated with the site both at present and in a longer time perspective.Thirtynine soil samples and 16 sediment samples have been analyzed.

The Civil Engineering office in Skellefteå needs to develop the users' participation in the planning of parks and playgrounds. In order to get such a procedure to work one have to find a method that can work in the daily activity. My work aims to find such a method and to implement it in practice. Apart from helping the Parks departement to find an functional method I will also develop a deepened knowledge about users?participation wich can be very useful i my future profession. This work can be divided in three stages.

The aim of this study was to investigate and analyze similarities and differences in trials and punishment from a gender perspective, during the inquisition in the episcopate of Linköping. A inquisition initiated by duke Karl but performed by archbishop Abraham Angermannus in the year 1596.During the working process a quantitive method was used in the purpose of getting statistic data considering number of men and women that were trialed and punished. A hermeneutic qualitive method was also used in the purpose of closer investigating certain cases that men and women were involved in. The theoretical concepts that have been of importance and used in this study are the individual and the female subject that is based on gender in judicial procedures.The results showed that 49 % of the men were trialed for quarrel. Not as many men were trialed for contempt towards the church and witchery.The most frequently used corporal punishment in this cases were flogging that were executed for totally 38 % of the men.The investigation also proved that men were punished with these forms of corporal punishments for showing their contempt towards the church.

Försvarsmakten sköter praktiskt taget all distribution av drivmedel till de interna kunderna. Inom Försvarsmakten finns planer om att undersöka om detta drivmedelsarbete sköts effektivast inom försvaret, eller om externa leverantörer kan göra det bättre. Innan beslut tas skall det undersökas hur det går till i nuläget samt vilka förbättringar som kan göras på det egna arbetet. Resultatet av detta skall sen tas med vid jämförelsen med de externa leverantörernas förslag. Detta projekt beskriver hur drivmedelsarbetet sköts inom Försvarsmaktens logistik.

The market for heavy duty engines is constantly requiring engines that should be more andmore powerful, while still maintaining low fuel consumption. As a result of increasing enginepower, the engine and coolant temperature increases as well due to insufficient coolingperformance (because of design issues, cost etc.).Also, emission legislations, both current and future, require more and more measures to betaken by engine manufacturers. One way of meeting the legislations is the use of cooled EGR(Exhaust Gas Recirculation), which also lead to increased coolant temperatures.Both these factors also naturally lead to increased engine oil temperatures, the consequencesof which are not thoroughly investigated.This thesis project aims to investigate effects of high temperatures on engine oil degradation,with focus on the greatest degradation process: oxidation. To do this several engine runs havebeen performed on a 310 hp engine with EGR to see what happens to the engine oil in a realengine when exposed to high temperatures. During the tests oil samples have been taken andanalysed for important parameters.As a complement to these engine tests some laboratory oxidation testing have also beenperformed, to be able to compare engine test data with laboratory tests.One goal of the project was to try to formulate an empirical oxidation model, which would beable to predict oil oxidation levels in an engine, given any running parameters.

Uppsatsens syfte är att undersöka och jämföra genuskontraktet (värderingar, lagar, individuell situation) för en grupp kvinnliga barnviseaktörer som författade, illustrerade, komponerade barnviseutgåvor under åren 1885-1922, samt relatera resultatet till samhällsprocesser som präglade den borgerliga kvinnans förändrade roll i hem och yrkesliv. Kollektivbiografisk metod används. Barnvisesamlingar, biografier, uppslagsverk, tidskrift samt tidningsartiklar utgör källmaterialet. Teoretisk förankring är Hirdmans genuskontrakt samt Habermas borgerliga offentlighet. Resultatet visar att de 16 kvinnliga barnviseaktörer som ingår i studien föddes 1854-1895, växte upp i borgerlig/överklassfamiljer i södra Sverige.

This Master of Science thesis was completed at the Department of Machine Design at the Royal Instituteof Technology in Stockholm in collaboration with Lund Faculty of Engineering, Luleå University ofTechnology and Stanford University. At Stanford University a global product development project wasrealized as part of the course ME310. The project was initiated by the American company ImmerseGlobal whose vision was to develop a new type of Atmospheric Water Generators, a machine that absorbsthe moisture in the air and via a water system transforms it to pure drinking water. The project was partlyfinanced by the Product Innovation Engineering program, a Swedish research and development programfor increased innovation capability in organizations.In parallel with the global project in the ME310 course the product development process was studied inorder to compare it with a product development course at the Royal Institute of Technology, IPU. Thetwo courses are similar to each other in several aspects.

The aim of this master thesis is to study how the development of a public library by means of ideas and methods from the private sector can be related to traditional core values. We base our study on institutional theory, which focuses on norms and values in an organisation, and new institutional theory, which focuses on how organisations are influenced by changes in the environment. We also use New Public Management with a market focus to analyze the implications of a development towards a more market oriented view.The method used is that of a case study of a new library concept, Idea Stores in London. Idea Stores are a number of new public libraries in Tower Hamlets developed from the results of a major opinion survey about libraries. The Idea Stores combine traditional library services with elements of adult education and lifelong learning in a partnership with local learning centres.

Uppsatsen behandlar olika definitioner av korruption utifrån internationella regelverk. The United Nations Convention against Corruption (UNCAC) ger en mer specifik definition till korruption än the African Convention on Combating and Preventing Corruption and Related Offences (AUCPCC). Då det finns flera olika definitioner av korruption kan diskuteras huruvida en enhetlig definition är nödvändig. Korruption påverkar även rätten till att bli prövad av en självständig och oberoende domstol. De internationella regelverk som behandlar denna rättighet är the Universal Declaration on Human Rights (UDHR), the African Charter on Human and Peoples? Rights (ACHPR) och the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR).

Den svenska FM är beroende av civil sjukvård för kirurgiskt omhändertagande i händelse av skadeutfall. Under det kalla kriget vilade den svenska krigssjukvårdsorganisationen på den militära sjukvårdsorganisationen, civilförsvaret och den civila sjukvården. År 2014 är den militära kirurgiska omhändertagandeförmågan reducerad till ca 1 % av tidigare kapacitet. Civilförsvarets organisation och stor del av fasta installationer och beredskapsförråd har reducerats starkt. Uppgiften att planera och organisera för civilt skydd är i enlighet med ansvars-, likhets- och närhetsprinciperna delegerad till regional och lokal nivå.

Many companies are presently investing in different types of environmental strategies, and it is varying to what level they channel their resources to environmental efforts. It is also diverging to what extent organizations effort to profile themselves as environmentally conscious. This can be due to difficulties in reaching out to customers and to finding the most efficient method of green marketing communication. The aim of this study is to analyse how an insurance company more actively can communicate environmental matters foremost in their contact with customers. One can in different mediums daily follow debates and discussions concerning the environment. Many insurance companies have also identified their role in performing green work.
