With this study I seek to contribute to existing research on young, regenerative farmers in Denmark by illuminating their relationship with alienation from nature. The title is “The Re-generation – a study of young, regenerative farmers in Denmark and their relationship to alienation from nature in a time of ecological crises”. A more detailed description the purpose of this research is that I wan

Vehicular networks connect vehicles for improved road safety and efficiency with the assistance of wireless information exchange. Vehicular networks are based on the frequent broadcast of awareness messages referred to as CAM (Cooperative Awareness Messages) or BSM (Basic Safety Message) in the ETSI and SAE standards, respectively. Vehicular network technology mostly used nowadays is based on cell

Increasing climate change is causing a rise in natural disasters. One of the most common natural disasters in Sweden is flooding. Vulnerability is increasing due to urbanization and the removal of green spaces in Swedish cities. In the acute phase of a flooding, the municipal Fire and Rescue Services (FRS) are generally first to respond. In this thesis, the FRS’ management of flooding is reviewed

Företagsobligationsmarknaden har blomstrat det senaste decenniet och blivit en alltmer attraktiv kapitalkälla för företag, särskilt i ljuset av de strängare restriktioner som införts för banker efter finanskrisen. Trots tillväxten har de rättsliga aspekterna av marknaden fått begränsad uppmärksamhet inom den svenska juridiska litteraturen. Denna uppsats syftar till att utreda huruvida en likabehanThe corporate bond market has thrived in the past decade and emerged as a compelling capital source for companies, particularly in light of the tighter restrictions placed on banks following the financial crisis. Notwithstanding its growth, the legal aspects of the market have not received sufficient coverage in Swedish legal literature. This study seeks to examine the presence of a principle of e

Macroalgae are found worldwide dominating the aquatic ecosystems and representing a vast still sporadically explored resource with significant potential for mitigating climate change, constitute new food alternatives, provide sustainably fuel, and possibly be involved in new pharmaceutical discoveries. Despite limited research attention, ulvan, an irregular sulphated polysaccharide found in green

Bakgrund: På akutmottagningen finns ofta svårt sjuka patienter och sjuksköterskor kan uppleva stora utmaningar med att etablera perifer intravenös access på sina patienter. Det är ofta nödvändigt för patienter på akutmottagningen att ha en perifer venös access för administration av läkemedel, vätskor eller röntgenundersökningar. Ultraljudsledd perifer venös access är ett alternativ för etablering

Today cities are the result of centuries of history and human development, accelerated during the past 100 years. Post-industrialization, modernism’s top-down city planning approach, and the prioritisation of motor vehicle design over humans resulted in more people moving to cities, more space needed to allocate new vehicles, expansion over rural areas, and exponential pollution growth. Thus, huma

International systems are currently conceived and based on the traditional four IR theories, that is realism, liberalism, constructivism and marxism. This means that political units converge and become homogeneous like the remaining political units. It occurs, advocates say, either through competition within the competitive system or through conformity since it is negligent and irrational, thus co

Neuromorphic processors are a promising new type of hardware for optimizing neural network computation using biologically-inspired principles. They can effectively leverage information sparsity such as in images from event-based cameras, and are well-adapted to processing event-based data in an energy-efficient fashion. However, neuromorphic processors struggle to process high resolution event-bas

År 2014 presenterade åtta forskare ett nytt maskininlärningsramverk för artificiell intelligens där två neuronnätverk samverkar för framställning av manipulerat verklighetstroget material. Teknologin har bidragit i värdefulla forskningsframsteg, men kan också användas för framställning av manipulerat intimt material. I samband med teknisk innovation uppstår därmed nya tillvägagångssätt för användaIn 2014, eight researchers presented a new framework for artificial intelligence in which two neural networks collaborate to produce manipulated, realistic material. While this technology has contributed to valuable research advancements, it can also be used for the production of manipulated intimate material. With use of this technological innovation, new methods for users to create realistic por

Surface albedo estimations from remote sensing are invaluable for energy balance descrip- tions in climate research. The aim of this work is to evaluate the possibility of using Sentinel-2 satellite data to get the total albedo of a small, vegetated area. In this thesis, a simple machine learning model is created to convert simulated Sentinel-2 reflectance measurements to surface albedo. The Fore

En ny utställningsbyggnad till Kulturen i Lund presenteras med ritningar och bilder. Bakgrunden till gestaltningen kommer ifrån en studie av staden Lund, dess arkitekturtradition och hur dessa kan sammankopplas med begrepp som tid och materialitet. Projektet börjar med en kort redogörelse för Lunds byggnads- och arkitekturhistoria. Det avslutas med allmänna reflektioner om staden karaktär. DärefteA new exhibition hall for Kulturen in Lund is presented with drawings and pictures. The background to the design comes from a study of the city of Lund, its architectural tradition, and how these can connect with concepts such as time and materiality. The project begins with a brief chronology of Lund’s building and architectural history. It concludes with general reflections on the city’s charact

Bakgrund Varje år drabbas cirka 6000 människor av hjärtstopp i Sverige där cirka 10% överlever. Det ställs stora krav på ambulanspersonalen vid ett prehospitalt hjärtstopp där ambulanspersonalen beslutar om att påbörja, avstå eller avsluta hjärt- och lungräddning (HLR). Syfte Syftet med litteraturstudien var att belysa de bakomliggande faktorerna till ambulanspersonalens beslutsfattande vid vuxna

This report is written on the behalf of SAAB Kockums AB to investigate the feasibility of using water mist fire protection systems on board conventional submarines as an alternative to the traditional solution using Halon 1301. Halon 1301 has since the late eighties been phased out due to environmental concerns. The report studies existing rules and regulations regarding fire safety onboard ships,

This study investigates the dynamics of Taiwanese identity among Taiwanese migrants in Sweden, with a specific focus on their experiences and interactions within the local Chinese community. The research draws on data collected from ten in-depth semi-structured interviews and utilises the analytical framework developed by Brubaker and Cooper (2000) to gain a deeper understanding of Taiwanese ident

This thesis explores how Salesian Institutes are related to religious peace-building in post-colonial and post-conflict Cambodia. It examines if and how the Catholic-Salesian multi-religious educational mission system is able to peacefully co-exist in a Buddhist Cambodian society, and collaborate with other minority religions present – Protestant, Muslim, and non-religious in promoting education f

This bachelor project is about textile crafts traditionally performed in Sweden and the textile crafters who perform the crafts in their homes. The main questions asked and investigated in this project are: HOW CAN THE STATUS OF TEXTILE CRAFTS BE UPLIFTED? & HOW CAN THE ONGOING TEXTILE CRAFTS PROJECTS BE ASSIGNED A CENTRAL PLACE IN THE HOME? The project was carried out using a resea
