Macaneta spit is located about 30km north of Maputo, Mozambique, with the Indian Ocean on the east side and Incomáti River on the west side of the spit, composing an interesting and vulnerable area from a hydrodynamic point of view. Few studies regarding coastal processes are done in the area and changes of the morphology could result in breaching of the spit and thereby affect both accessibility
Det här examensarbetet undersöker hur stor yta av Lunds tätort man kan frigöra från parkeringsplatser i tre olika framtida scenarier. Dessa scenarier utspelar sig ungefär år 2040 och handlar om tre varianter av bilpoolslösningar. Bilen tar fysiskt upp mycket yta i staden. Detta har bl.a. undersökts i tidigare examensarbeten, men med fokus på utvecklingen av andelen tätortsyta som låses av trafiklöThis master thesis examines how much of the urban area of the city of Lund, could be released from parking space in different future scenarios. These scenarios are based on three different options of car sharing and unfold around year 2040. Historically city planning has had various influences from different centuries with both economic and military ideals. But the 20th century and the introducti

A common method for aiding students in solving physics exercises, is to add an image. That images together with text are better for learning than text alone is called the multimedia effect. It is achieved through integration of textual and pictorial information. Based on this, it can be hypothesized that solving a physics exercise should be easier with an image. Using actual exercises and their co
En kopparlödd värmeväxlare används i fjärrvärmeapplikationer. Ett samhälle under ständig utveckling har lett till en strävan att förbättra dessa produkter, men också till en strävan att minska kostnaden vid både tillverkning och utveckling av nya, effektivare produkter.This Master Thesis has been conducted with the aim to investigate the mechanical performance of an isolated copper braze joint. The mechanical performance of the copper brazed heat exchanger is to a great extent determined by the properties of the copper braze joints. It is not yet exactly known how different parameters such as the weight of copper per joint, plate material composition and furnace
The integration of the global economy is a phenomena that is increasingly evident in our everyday lives. Ranging from rapid economic growth in developing nations to the flow of capital across continents, globalization is affecting almost all corners of modern society. This includes the higher education sector, in which recent years have seen unprecedented growth in Asia as the economy increasingly
There is a heated debate going on concerning the use of migration detention in Europe. In the wake of the increased number of migrants trying to enter or having become irregular while residing in Europe, states seem to rely on the practice of migration detention in such a degree, that it has become an integral part of their national and European Union policies. This happens, despite the fact that

Abstract This essay is about integration in the small Swedish municipality of Höör, in the south of Sweden. Using a qualitative research approach in the form of a content analysis, I have con-ducted a study concerning female immigrants from Afghanistan. The theoretical framework in this study consists of theories on integration by Diaz and Beckman. Further theoretical framework in the study consis
The survey is a critical discourse analysis of text analytic ambition where I study how Muslims and Islam are portrayed in Swedish media during the period September 2015 - May 2016.The research is based on forty newspaper articles from the nationwide newspapers Svenska Dagbladet and Dagens Nyheter. To read the discourses that prevail in the articles, I take the starting point in Edward Said's
This paper provides a new take on how to explain irregular migration. The results of this study takes a leap forward in scientific thinking of how larger irregular migration flows can be understood in the modern age where migrants are using internet technology to their advantage. By using existing migration theory and big data search patterns from google a completely new way of understanding irreg
Denna uppsats handlar om hur ett globalt företag påverkar bilden av Sverige i världen men också hos ”svenskar” själva. Uppsatsen är ett försök till att förstå på vilket sätt detta sker. Med utgångspunkt i teorier om nationen som en diskursiv formation och med diskursteorins redskap för hur betydelsefixeringar konstrueras och reproduceras, kan den diskurs om svenskhet som IKEA skapar kartläggas. Ge
After years of secretive, back-door negotiations, the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) was finally revealed to the public on November 5, 2015. While the TPP has been regarded by some as the “gold standard” for free trade agreements in the twenty-first century, a wide spectrum of political opposition has continued formed around the deal. This paper builds on the growing body of critical scholarship
The European migrant crisis escalated in 2015 and we saw the countries involved making various policy decisions. The following text will analyze the migration policies of the Danish and Swedish governments and why those policies were implemented. Using the method of an analysis of ideas I will try to establish a platform from which the policies could be explained and understood. A crucial assumpti
Civic integration is something that states interpret differently in their formulation of citizenship requirements. Thinking of the ongoing refugee crisis in Europe, citizenship policy is an important issue because states will confront new residents who need to obtain a citizenship in order to start a new life and integrate in a foreign country. The aim of this study is to follow up with existing r
