  1. 16. Distributional Side Effects of Tax Policies: An Analysis of Tax Avoidance and Congestion Tolls

    Författare :Hanna Armelius; Lars Hultkrantz; Jonas Agell; Michael Lundholm; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Economics; Congestion tolls; Tax avoidance; Income distribution; Distributional effects; Nationalekonomi; Economics; Nationalekonomi;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis consists of three self-contained essays.Essay 1This essay examines the effects of tax avoidance on saving and income distribution. In an intertemporal model taxes can be avoided through asset trade. We find that including an avoidance response to taxation will increase all the negative distortions of increased tax progressivity.

  3. 17. K+ channels in the inner ear : electrophysiological and molecular studies

    Författare :Guihua Liang; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Cochlea; gene expression; hair cell; immunohistochemistry; KCNQ; lead; M current; mercury; patch clamp; RT-PCR; voltage-gated potassium channels;

    Sammanfattning : Potassium channels are involved in several fundamental cellular processes. Heavy metals, such as mercury and lead, are widespread toxic pollutants and have been shown to act on various ion channels in the central nervous system. LÄS MER

  4. 18. Effect of Physical Activity on Bone, Muscle and Fracture Risk during Growth

    Författare :Bjarne Löfgren; Ortopedi - klinisk och molekylär osteoporosforskning; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; BMC; bone size; children; exercise; fracture; growth; hip stucture analysis; muscle strength; physical activity;

    Sammanfattning : Osteoporosis and related fractures are a global health problem. Physical activity, especially during growth, has been suggested as a strategy to improve musculoskeletal health in the population. LÄS MER

  5. 19. Modeling Diesel spray combustion using a Detailed Chemistry Approach

    Författare :Jonas Edman; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Sammanfattning : The rapid development of computer hardware during the past decade has contributed substantially to advances in almost all branches of science. Computer modeling is being applied to increasingly small physical scales and increasingly large domains, facilitating the generation of advanced phenomenological models and models based on first principles.

  7. 20. Static and Dynamic Load Response of the Lumbar Spine in Flexion

    Författare :Anna-Lisa Osvalder; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; biomechanical response; flexion-distraction injuries; injury; ; experimental methods; spinal segments;

    Sammanfattning : The aims of this study were to develop experimental methods for static and dynamic loading of spinal segments in vitro that would simulate flexion-distraction injuries (lap seat-belt injuries) and increase knowledge about the biomechanical response and the mechanisms of injury of the lumbar spine under static and dynamic (transient) loads in flexion. The experiments were carried out on the lumbar functional spinal unit (FSU) consisting of two adjacent vertebrae, the intervertebral disc and all intervening ligaments. LÄS MER
