The novels Lady Audley’s Secret and The Picture of Dorian Gray both feature a beautiful but corrupted character as protagonist, the corruption of whom only gets revealed slowly to the reader while the fascination for the characters’ beauty is vanishing. This essay is investigating how this beauty is used in the two novels respectively and gives a general overview of contemporary readers’ perceptio

Introduktion: Ett relativt nytt område inom forensiska undersökningar är syste-matisk användning av radiografi. Virtuell obduktion används som en komplette-rande undersökning till klinisk obduktion. Vid virtuella obduktioner är röntgen-sjuksköterskan del i teamet, det är hon som har kunskaper i de radiografiska red-skap som används. Syfte: Syftet med litteraturstudien är att utifrån ett radiogra-f

Maintaining the current account balance is very crucial for an open economy. Nevertheless, China as the world second largest economy has been suffering a large current account imbalance during the past two decades. Such a long-term imbalance induces the argument that China has been manipulating its exchange rate for the purpose of obtaining unfair trade advantage for its exports. Therefore, the ob

Studiens främsta syfte är att besvara huruvida värdeaktier har presterat annorlunda än tillväxtaktier vid börsintroduktioner på Nasdaq Stockholm mellan år 2000 - 2012. Detta görs utifrån fenomenen underprissättning och långsiktig underavkastning. En viktig utgångspunkt är i vilken utsträckning dessa förekommit på vald marknadsplats under motsvarande tidsperiod. Författarna ämnar således även att u

Studiens syfte var att undersöka vilka faktorer påverkar organisationers val att ingå i det EU-finansierade konsortiet R-Mode Baltic, och hur väl kan dessa härledas till transaktionskostnadsteori. En kvalitativ fallstudie har tillämpats. Analys av insamlad data har skett via pattern-matching vars syfte är att söka efter empiriska mönster. Transaktionkostnadsteori är vårt teoretiska ramverk som int

Today it gets more and more popular for companies to implement Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe) in their organizations. SAFe is an agile software development framework that intends to increase productivity and quality, and provide faster time to market. A company that works in a waterfall based development process, is now facing this implementation. The company would like to know which challenges oth

Studies of aquaporin’s are broad study field in today’s science. In this master project the membrane protein aquaporin SoPIP2;1 has been studied. The aim of the project was to obtain protein crystals with Lipidic Cubic Phase (LCP) crystallization and study their diffraction. If the obtained resolution of the crystals were satisfying the molecular map also would be studied and that would reveal us

MIFO is a methodology commonly used to facilitate inventory of potentially contaminated sites (objects) in Sweden. It was first introduced during the 1990’s and has since then served as a standardized method for risk assessment. MIFO are comprised of two evaluation phases,1 and 2. Following years of inventories, there is now an extensive amount of data stored in files which can be used as an asses

Dark matter is estimated to make up around 25% of the Universe, but it is not known what dark matter is. In particle physics, mediators of dark matter are used to model interactions of dark matter particles with known particles (Standard Model particles). These mediator particles can be produced from two quarks or gluons in high-energetic proton-proton collisions, and decay immediately back into S

Abstract Municipalities have many roles in the work of reducing climate change and becoming more energy efficient and there are great opportunities for profitable energy efficiency measures. 2010-2014 the municipality of Hässleholm has conducted an energy efficiency project including energy use in owned and leased buildings and vehicles, machinery, purchased transportation services, and energy us

The conventional internal combustion engines of today are starting to reach their maximum possible efficiency, however the demand for highly efficient vehicles keeps increasing. There are many ways of improving the total fuel consumption of an internal combustion engine, but one of the most promising, effective and available methods is the implementation of an Organic Rankine cycle (ORC). The scop

In many places across the northern hemisphere, drinking water treatment plants (WTPs) need to avert the effects of deteriorating quality in surface water sources caused by increasing lev-els of natural organic matter (NOM). The two major factors responsible for this phenomenon, also called brownification, are the greenhouse effect and changes in soil acidification. Additional treatment steps needs

Syfte: Syftet med uppsatsen är att skapa ökad förståelse för hur nya image- och varumärkesbyggande aktiviteter initialt påverkar statliga arbetsgivares rekryteringsförutsättningar. Metod: En kvalitativ tvärsnittsstudie har genomförts med ett hermeneutiskt förhållningssätt. Forskningsansatsen i uppsatsen är främst deduktiv och baseras på relevant teori. Analys och slutsatser underbyggs av primärdaPurpose: The purpose of this thesis is to build knowledge regarding how new image activities and branding activities initially influence public employers’ recruiting conditions. Methodology: A qualitative cross-sectional study was carried out with a hermeneutic approach. The research in this paper is mainly deductive and based on relevant theory. Analysis and conclusions are supported by primary

I investigate to what extent spiral arms might affect axisymmetric Galactic models. As we need fully dynamical and high resolution Galactic evolutionary models to probe the structure of the dark matter halo, it is important that we use accurate mass models describing the MW structure. Before reaching to that level of effort, a great deal can be learned from fitting mass and kinematic models to dat
