This paper revisits Richard Hare's classical and much discussed argument for preference utilitarianism (Moral Thinking, 1981), which relies on the conception of moral deliberation as a process of thought experimentation, with concomitant preference change. The paper focuses on an apparent gap in Hare's reasoning, the so-called No-Conflict Problem. A solution to this difficulty which was proposed i
This essay aims to investigate how Amnesty International handles the so called peace versus justice dilemma in post-conflict societies. This is done by studying a number of Amnesty publications published between 1996 and 2000, concerning various aspects of justice within the peacebuilding-process in Sierra Leone. More concretely, what is studied is whether Amnesty tends to prefer judicial (trials)
An academic journal is a special place – even more so an online journal. On the one hand, it is surely one of the main stages of professional qualification, presentation and academic discourse, though regulated through its gatekeeping structures of peer review, official invitation, of academic critique and corrections: it represents an open and accessible, yet not unregulated public space in the b

In this study four different types of PIR materials have been tested to examine the possibility to use the cone calorimeter (ISO 5660) as a screening tool to evaluate the fire properties of the insulation. As such, manufacturers can be able to make a quick control of the insulation without having to spend resources on full scale testing. One of the materials was from an FM-approved (standard 4880)
This report investigates what defensive and attacking strategies are most efficient in an organized attack situation in football. Defensive shape, defending player synchronizations, number of passes, types of passes and other variables are tested to see which methods statistically generate more and better goal scoring opportunities. Data from the Eredevise (highest Dutch football division) 2021/20

Advanced process engineering for resource-efficient production. When producing products, we want to optimize the use of resources such as raw materials, energy, equipment for the desired product quality and production speed. This is a complex task and one way is to use model-based computational techniques. Advanced process engineering involves first developing a reliable mathematical model of the

Denna studie är baserad på intervjuer med kvinnor med erfarenhet av missbruk och våldsutsatthet. Syftet har varit att undersöka hur dessa kvinnor behandlats när de sökte hjälp från hälso- och sjukvården. Vi har även undersökt hur hälso- och sjukvårdens reproducerade föreställningar av kvinnor med missbruk och erfarenhet av våldsutsatthet kan förstås. Resultaten visade att intervjupersonerna kännerThis study is based on interviews with women experienced of substance addiction whilst being the victims of violence. The aim was to examine how these women were treated when they sought aid from help services.

This thesis explores the ways in which ‘‘Ides of March, 2020’’ (2020) by Didi Jackson, ‘‘Sing a Darkness’’ (2020) by Carl Phillips, and ‘‘Desert Lily’’ (2020) by Rigoberto González engage with concepts of nature and trauma. All three poems reveal poignant elaborations on human position and relationship to nature, and how nature might help the speakers dealing with the traumatic present of the pand

Since the Second World War, the systems of trade and environmental law have evolved very differently. It is claimed that the complete trading system impedes the development of the more shattered environmental system and that conflicts between them are likely to increase. Some argues that a solution would be to incorporate the environmental system should in the WTO. The purpose of this thesis is t
This master thesis is part of the development of a new industrial machine. The machine is a fully automated transplanting machine for the forest industry and will be used by nurseries around the world. Nurseries grow seedlings and sell them when they have grown enough to be planted in the ground. The machine being developed moves plants from a tray with small cells to a tray with bigger cells. Thi

Stora delar av det svenska bostadsbeståndet kännetecknas av nyttomaximering och konformitet. Examensarbetet undersöker några av Sveriges mest unika bostadshus, nämligen vattentorn som ombildats till bostäder. Författaren intresserades av ämnet på grund av ett uppmärksammat bostadsvattentornsprojekt i sin hemstad och kopplar fenomenet till två vanligen förekommande begrepp i civilingenjörsutbildninWith time buildings are prone to lose their purpose. Meanwhile cities face demand for urban densification. This paper focuses on obsolete water towers repurposed to unique housing in Sweden. In Sweden 15 water towers have been turned into multy-family dwellings. This has resulted in 266 flats of which 156 are reserved for students. The total floor area of these are 12 761 square meters.
