The study presented here proposes a predictive model based on multi-criteria evaluation, and aims at analysing the parameters of known Upper Palaeolithic decorated caves in the Périgord noir, in southwest France.

Undeniably, ‘Short Food Supply Chains’ (SFSCs) or, in Dutch, ‘korte ketens’ are on the minds of policymakers and visionaries in the Netherlands. In addition, the concept has given rise to multiple small-scale initiatives. This research explores the many stories and motives behind these initiatives, as well as any other practices that are committed to SFSCs in the city of Amsterdam. Firstly, an att

An increase of cycling is known to increase health, lower gas-emissions and lower traffic-congestion. In cities with a high modal-share of bicycling, a higher quality of life can be measured. “Supercykelvägar” in The Netherlands and Denmark are defined as forming the backbone of the regional cycling-network. Malmö is planning to implement six routes of “supercykelvägar” within the city and the firÖkad cykling leder till bättre folkhälsa, mindre utsläpp, mindre trafikköer och forskning visar att det, i städer, finns ett samband mellan höga färdmedelsandelar cykling och livskvalitet. Kapacitetsstarka pendlingsstråk för cykel, även kallade ”Supercykelvägar”, ska byggas i Malmö och de förväntas uppfylla kvalitetskrav gällande tillgänglighet, framkomlighet, säkerhet, trygghet, komfort och ident

Forskning vid Lunds Universitet har lett till nanotrådar som odlas i tunna aluminium-membran, vilket gör trådarna betydligt mer motståndskraftiga mot fukt, värme och annat som kan skada dem. Detta projekt utnyttjar röntgenstrålars interaktioner med materia för att studera hur trådarna växer med målet att informera framtida forskning. Alltsedan Wilhelm Konrad Röntgen upptäckte röntgenstrålar år 189The past decade has seen a great interest in the development of metal halide perovskite materials for use in photo-optical devices, due to the excellent photo-optical properties of these materials. The primary limitation to industrial adoption, and the subject of much research, is the susceptibility of these materials to degradation from exposure to various factors such as air, heat and moisture.

This thesis explores two contemporary artists’ use of digital technology, whose work deal with the question of how technology determines the way we perceive space. As a background to these explorations, I discuss how spaces relates to technology in visual culture through art history with examples of specific Chinese and western landscape paintings.

This thesis attends to vulnerability and precarity within visual representation by analysing the negative affects bound to the experience of social exclusion. The study explores what it might mean to embrace and not overcome 'bad feelings' like shame and alienation using the visual example of an elderly prostitute–a ‘Bacchus Lady’– in E J-yong's 2016 film The Bacchus Lady.

Abstract: The gender-equality paradox is the phenomenon of finding more developed, egalitarian countries generally experience higher gender equality while, for example, having a relatively low share of female graduates from STEM fields in tertiary education. The presence of the paradox in several developed egalitarian countries indicates that the female share of STEM graduates must be influenced b
