Syftet med den här studien har varit att tolka hur unga män i åldern 18–24 år utifrån emotionssociologisk synvinkel upplever känslan av rädsla och trygghet, och hur de utifrån ett genusperspektiv talar om känslor. Vidare har studien undersökt vad som bidrar till de unga männens känsla av rädsla och trygghet. Detta har gjorts genom en kvalitativ metod i form av fem semi strukturerade intervjuer med
Abstract The utilization of one-carbon compounds, such as methanol, as a feedstock for production of high value compounds is a fast developing area within cell factory engineering. Methanol is a cheap and easily stored compound, which can be produced from CO2 and renewable energy. Engineering microbial cell factories for utilization of methanol could therefore contribute to decreasing the amounts
Society and companies are becoming increasingly digitized. If you compare company structures historically and today you will see some palpable differences. Today, there are companies that work almost exclusively digitally. Therefore, a new focus is created on assets that lack physical form, that is intangible assets. These are dealt with today within the accounting regulations and practices, but t
n this master’s thesis, one studies the liquidity of bonds. One considers bid-ask spread and develops four estimators of this liquidity measure based on trading data. One also computes Amihud’s measure. This approach helps to determine liquidity and its associ-ated costs without quotation. One finds out that the Roll, the FHT estimators and the Amihud measure take the lead. One looks at the changes
The aim of this thesis is to describe and explain how meal-box, as a digital device designed to assist households in carrying out eating practices, reconfigure household practices and enable specific behavioural activities, including sustainability. Taking a socio-material and practice theory approach and drawing on an ethnographic study of three meal-box providers – The Seasons, Hello Fresh and L
Studier har visat att det kan göras bra bedömningar av trafiksäkerhetstillstånd och dess bidragande faktorer genom att studera konflikterna i trafiken istället för olyckorna. Genom att undersöka hur konflikterna i en trafikplats ser ut kan man få mer data och få den mycket snabbare än om man undersöker olycksdata. Genom att använda nya verktyg till datorer som djupinlärning kan man även lättare taStudies have shown that good assessments can be made of traffic safety conditions and contributing factors by studying the conflicts in traffic rather than the accidents. By analysing the conflicts in a location with traffic you can get more data and in a shorter time-frame than if analysing accident data. By using new tools for computers such as deep learning, it's easier to get these conflic

As one of the most important sites in which and through which discourse is articulated and disseminated, newspapers play particularly extensive roles in furthering understandings of human rights cases involving citizens of dual nationality and foreign policy. Drawing on critical discourse analysis and the practice of journalistic framing, this study examined the effects of intertextuality on the d
The modernization of China comes as one of the most interesting topics not only at this moment but also has been researched for a long time. The individualization theories come as a result of modernity. This thesis draws on ten in-depth interviews in order to analyze the individualization among the educated, middle-class young people who were born in the 1990s by testing Yan Yunxiang’s theories of
Climate change, along with grassland degradation, have become major causes of livelihood difficulties for herdsmen in Inner Mongolia for the past few decades. The purpose of this study is to seek better understanding of the relationships between climate change and herders’ livelihoods in pastoral communities in Inner Mongolia, map out the major institutional changes on climate adaptation measures
En app/prototyp gjord för studenter av studenter. Den har i syfte att vara deras bästa vän under studiens gång. Hjälpa till med allt från att boka datorsal till att fungera som ett digitalt LU-kort! Nyckeln till ett smidigare studentliv helt enkelt! En första version av prototypen gjordes i en såkallad “lofi-prototyp” som en enkel digitalt handritat prototoyp, som testas först på användarna i fo
As the entertainment industry continues to grow and fictional characters holding enormous value, this paper seeks to explain how the characters can be protected within the EU through copyright or the use of trade marks, and what the limitations to such protection might be. The paper is using a legal analytical method and looks at both the legislation and the case-law within the union, but also at
European rivers experience increasing concentrations of total organic carbon (TOC) from terrestrial sources due to factors involving changes in land use, climate and soil acidity. However, low interest is given to the evolution of total organic nitrogen (TON) concentrations in surface waters, the links with TOC concentrations and the influence of the surrounding land cover on nutrient inputs. Inve
I denna fallstudie undersöks och analyseras frågeställningen utifrån chefers upplevelser inom ett internationellt tillverkande bolag i industribranschen. Sättet att hantera både kunder och medarbetare blir allt mer betydelsefullt för att konkurrera med service. Chefernas roll blir i samband med detta avgörande för att uppnå organisatoriska mål och god extern serviceleverans. Syftet med studien äIn this case study essay, the issue is examined and analyzed on the basis of managers' experiences within an internationally manufacturing company in the industrial industry. The way to handle both customers and employees is becoming increasingly important to compete with service. The role of the managers becomes associated with this for achieving organizational goals and delivering external
Laundry as a household activity has been subject to (un)sustainable consumption studies. The majority of those studies are rooted in mainstream approaches to (un)sustainable consumption focusing on either changing individuals (e.g., their decisions, behaviors, habits) or system (e.g., infrastructure, technology). Moreover, the laundry has been predominantly studied as a washing activity. This rese
Dricksvatten har länge setts som en obegränsad resurs i Costa RIcas regnskogar, men en växande befolkning och förändrad markanvändning kräver ett annat förhållningssätt till grundvattnet. Hur ser grundvattentillgången egentligen ut i landet och hur känslig är den för mänsklig påverkan? Costa Rica är ett land med stor tillgång till rent vatten och grundvatten är deras främsta dricksvattenkälla som In this study, a hydrochemical and biological investigation, and a vulnerability assessment were conducted on the Los Bambinos aquifer during the spring of 2020. A literature study on previous studies conducted in the area was also made. This aquifer is located on the southwestern slope of the Barva volcano, northeast of Alajuela, Costa Rica. The hydrochemical investigation found the groundwater t
Kostnadsbesparingar är en central del i många företag däremot skapar den osäkerheter i försörjningskedjan ifall en plötslig kris uppkommer. Med ett växande konsumtionssamhälle ställer kunder allt mer krav på försörjningskedjan och konstant tillgång till livsmedel. Produktionsföretag och deras ledning måste därför kunna möta kundernas krav och deras efterfrågan allt snabbare. Viss litteratur belyse
In dense urban areas, the need for greenery increases, yet the total amount of green space in many Swedish cities decreases. Vegetation can create attractive environments, improve the micro-climate and the cities’ climate adaptation, but it also risks impairing cyclists' traffic safety. Vegetation can impair visibility, reduce the width of infrastructure, leaves can lead to slipperiness and ob
Hade du velat gå hela vägen till stadshuset för att interagera med en interaktiv plattform där du kan göra allt från att kommunicera med kommunen till att få en överblick över staden? Hade du velat gå om plattformen var integrerad med Virtual Reality?Residents living in small towns that are a part of a bigger municipality may sometimes feel overlooked as they sense that they have lesser influence. Smaller towns may not have the resources or consider the need for integrating technology with the town, thus possibly making it harder for the residents to stay updated and be in contact with the town. By focusing on the residents' needs, a digit
