The overall aim of this study is to get closer look at the prehistoric individual on a more social level. This will be attempted through a qualitative understanding of how one can interpret gender using a source material from two Iron Age cemeteries both located in the very southeastern corner of Sweden. In doing this, the study revolves around a crucial understanding of three theoretical ideas: G
Optogenetics is unfolding new ways for us to study the nervous system and could one day be a standard approach to treat neurological diseases like epilepsy. To selectively study the effects on a subcellular level, microscopic light sources are needed. Nanostructure, light-emitting diodes (LEDs) can realize this criteria but processing to connect and protect them is necessary before any fruitful op
Baxter develops medical devices that take advantage of reverse osmosis to purify water that’s being used in dialysis fluids. Reverse osmosis is a commonly used water purification process that removes unwanted particles from the water. The membrane that is used to purify the water has a temperature dependency that changes the performance of the membrane when the temperature is changed. When loweri
Lipases are the main fat digestive enzymes present in the digestive system of many animals, microorganisms and plants. Probiotic microorganisms that can possibly produce enzymes are of crucial importance since it can have an effect on human health. Two of the main probiotic strains are Lactobacillus rhamnosus and Biffidobacterium longum, in each there was a putative lipase encoded on the DNA and t
In 2006, the city of Korsør in Slagelse Municipality in Denmark experienced the worst storm surge recorded in history. In order to prevent greater damage of buildings and sensitive infrastructures in the future, dikes and evacuation procedures have been brought up for discussion. This thesis examines resilience to flooding in Korsør by conducting in-depth qualitative interviews with a resident fro
The project sets in Prishtina, Kosovo, and explores the oasis of a park in the middle of the intense city. The different movements created by us, has led to the interest of developing architectural fragments of stops to activate the park and further extend the public use of the National Library: a way of creating new movements in order to connect them two together. “A search for the path of total
The purpose of this study is to investigate what challenges sustainable entrepreneurs in the food industry face when capturing value and how they aim to overcome them. To that end, we develop a theoretical framework based on relevant literature on sustainable entrepreneurship, entrepreneurial studies and environmental science. Furthermore, we conducted nine case studies, drawing from semi-structur
Kristianstadsslätten breder ut sig i nordöstra Skåne och in i sydvästra Blekinge med sin komplicerade och varierade geologi. De komplexa förhållandena leder till att det finns ett flertal akvifärer i både jordlager och berggrund, där den mest vattenförande formationen är den av glaukonitsand. Syftet med arbetet har varit att undersöka vilket infiltrerat vattenflöde, vid vilket pumptryck, en brunn Kristianstad plain stretches from the northeast of Scania to the southwest of Blekinge with a complicated and varying geology. The complexity has resulted in multiple aquifers in both soil and bedrock, where the highest amount of withdrawable groundwater is in the formation of glauconite sand. The aim of this paper has been to investigate which infiltrated water flow at a certain pumping pressure,
For long, it has been popular to change the appearance of your hair by making it straight or curly. This change can be made more lasting by doing a perming treatment. These treatments were very popular a few decades ago, but the interest is not as big anymore. A perming treatment makes the hair curly or straight by using formulations with strong chemicals, such as reducing and oxidizing agents.
This study has examined how women's codependency on their male partner with alcohol or drug problems is expressed and how codependency can be understood in relation to their upbringing. A qualitative content analysis of 7 podcast episodes where women talked about their upbringing and codependency was made. For a deeper understanding, we used Johan Asplund's theory of social responsiveness,
Studiens syfte var att utforska upplevda metodbrister hos patienter som inte blivit hjälpta av Panic Control Treatment (PCT) respektive Panic Focused Psychodynamic Psychotherapy (PFPP). Studiens urval var en del av projektet POSE, Psychotherapy outcome and self-selection effects for panic disorder, och bestod av 20 patienter med diagnosen panikångestsyndrom med eller utan agorafobi. Hälften hade bThe aim of this study was to explore patients’ experience of method deficiencies in Panic Control Treatment (PCT) and Panic Focused Psychodynamic Psychotherapy (PFPP) respectively. The sample of 20 patients was a subsample from the project POSE, Psychotherapy outcome and self-selection effects for panic disorder, where the patients had been diagnosed with panic disorder with or without agoraphobia
The aim of this study is to analyze the differences in years of education for men and women, and how these differences affect economic growth. The author believes there is a significant loss of human capital in the world, when girls for different reasons do not reach the same level of education as boys. This loss becomes clear by inspecting the literacy rate for each gender, and when viewing the o
The need for speed in communications systems is increasingly prevalent in modern society, which is one of the driving factors for the evolution of new technologies. At the forefront of this evolution are Multiple-input Multiple-output (MIMO) systems. Through the usage of many antennas at the base station (BS) and user equipment (UE), significantly enhances the potential maximum data transfer rates
We are facing a continuous increase in humanitarian crises. All humanitarian emergencies affect People in Need differently. The wish for a more inclusive picture of the affected people suitable for humanitarian response is becoming more significant. The concept of intersectionality, in the sense of Crenshaw, promises to add precisely this perspective to humanitarian response. With the help of meth
This thesis investigates numerically the out of equilibrium properties of quantum rings with magnetic impurities, using the periodic Anderson model (PAM). The model is a simple template for the discussion of the physics of regular arrays of rare-earth impurities in metallic hosts. The system considered is a quantum ring consisting of up to six sites, each of whom are connected to an Anderson impur
För att en person ska kunna dömas för ett brott krävs det att denna har handlat med uppsåt eller i vissa fall oaktsamhet. För att uppsåt ska föreligga ska handlingen ha varit medveten och det ska finnas ett kausalsamband mellan denna och dess följd. Uppsåtsbegreppet är indelat i tre grader: avsiktsuppsåt, insiktsuppsåt och likgiltighetsuppsåt och de är graderade i den ordning de räknades upp med dResearchers who studied alcohol dependence in humans have come to the conclusion that alcoholism affects the brain's neurotransmitters, which means that the brain can begin to function differently about exposing the large amounts of alcohol over a long period of time. An addiction to alcohol is hard to recover from, with many severe withdrawal symptoms as a result. In the current legal situati
The aim of this thesis is to study the anthropology of contemporary Swedish ecotheology and theology of creation, Bo Brander, Per Larsson and Wilfrid Stinissen, in comparison with the ecofeminist theology of Sallie McFague. The Swedish theologians in this study describe man as steward, microcosm, priest, co-sufferer and the image of God. McFague use the term partner when describing man, a term w
The current paper examines to what extent different factors influence our ability to remember. Data used in the analysis origins from a psychological memory experiment conducted at the University of Lund. During the study phase of the experiment, participants viewed different objects which could either appear as a word or a picture. The object type was randomly chosen which resulted in varying seq
The results of a search for pair production of the lighter scalar partners of top quarks ((t) over bar (1)) in 2.05 fb(-1) of pp collisions at root s = 7 TeV using the ATLAS experiment at the LHC are reported. Scalar top quarks are searched for in events with two same flavour opposite-sign leptons (e, mu) with invariant mass consistent with the Z boson mass, large missing transverse momentum and j
Aims. The detection and measurement of gravitational-waves from coalescing neutron-star binary systems is an important science goal for ground-based gravitational-wave detectors. In addition to emitting gravitational-waves at frequencies that span the most sensitive bands of the LIGO and Virgo detectors, these sources are also amongst the most likely to produce an electromagnetic counterpart to th
