The concept of sustainable degrowth presents itself as a normative response to some of the most pressing socio-ecological challenges of our time. The energy sector plays a prominent role in the degrowth debate, however, there is limited conceptual and empirical understanding of how energy production and consumption might look like from a degrowth perspective and which actors might be compatible wi

The soda beverage industry has a global duopoly where Coca-Cola and Pepsi dominate the market. This paper aims to investigate how that duopoly can still exist after decades of competition trying to break the oligopoly where a combination of qualitative and quantitative methodologies where empirical evidence is featured to help validate theoretical assertions. Firstly, the companies financial data

Titel: Finns det en framtid för marknadsförare? – En kvalitativ studie om AI:s påverkan på den digitala marknadsförarens yrkesroll och autonomi Universitet: Lund Universitet, Campus Helsingborg Ämne/kurs: KSMK65 - Examensarbete för kandidatexamen, 15 högskolepoäng Författare: Emma Blomstedt och Milka Daniel Handledare: Ola Thufvesson Syfte: Studien syftar till att undersöka hur digitala markn

The American author and journalist Joan Didion was especially known for her non-fiction that pertinently described the culture she lived in, but her novels also offer a frank and realistic perspective on American society. In her two first novels Run River (1963) and Play It As It Lays (1970) Didion portrays the respective main characters, Lily Knight McClellan and Maria Wyeth, as fragile women who

Brazil has received international attention and investment for renewable energy production, including investments to produce low-carbon hydrogen: green hydrogen. However, green hydrogen requires relatively new technology and inputs are still expensive when compared to fossil fuels. The diffusion of this technology depends on the fulfillment of seven innovation functions. This study therefore seeks

A loop of urbanization, increasing impervious surface in urban areas, increasing temperature, rainfall, surface runoff and flooding, and lack of new spaces have been adding challenges to urban drainage systems for decades. The climate change impacts are exposing the existing vulnerable conventional urban drainage systems to more challenges in the future. A new idea of sustainable drainage syst

This thesis explores the under-recognised yet symptomatic visual motif of two women, a recurring theme within a vast array of pictorial examples. Its primary objective is to construct a theoretical and methodological framework capable of comprehending the multiplicity of images in the form of an image collection: The Atlas of Two Women. This inquiry primarily draws on Walter Benjamin’s concept of

Biotin is an essential co-factor in various metabolic processes and is crucial for the growth and maintenance of living organisms. The market need for biotin is multifaceted and driven by its importance in human health, beauty and cosmetics applications, pharmaceuticals, animal nutrition, and other industries. Current methods of industrial biotin production are unsustainable and generate environme

This paper takes a closer look at a Swedish group of teenagers' usage of fashion in their identity development in an effort to contribute to the understanding of fashion usage in youth culture. By involving them in discussions and interviews, and basing it in theory this paper comes to a somewhat understanding in how phenomena such as religion, gender identity, and celebrity influence the way

Inom fysiken och vissa delar av matematiken siktar man på att beskriva så mycket av naturen som möjligt. Det gör man genom att hitta modeller som passar bäst till varje situation. Naturligtvis är vissa system mycket svårare än andra att förstå matematiskt och vattenvågor är ett exempel på ett sådant system. Under 1800-talet formulerades Euler-ekvationerna, som beskriver rörelsen av ideala fluider,In their paper, Vanden-Broeck, Miloh and Spivack (Wave Motion 27, 1998) describe two limiting behaviours of irrotational, axisymmetric capillary water waves using numerical methods. They found a two-parameter family of nontrivial solutions. Some solutions of small amplitude approach a uniform stream, while others approach a static configuration. Our main interest is with the branch of static confi

Denna studie fokuserar på gehörs- och musiklära-undervisning på gymnasienivå och högskolenivå där fenomenet absolut gehör är i fokus. Studien är gjord utifrån två gruppers perspektiv: elever med absolut gehör, och lärare med erfarenhet av att under visa av elever med absolut gehör. Studien belyser framför allt hur lärare anpassar undervisningen till elever med absolut gehör samt vad elever med absThis study focuses on ear training at secondary and university level where the phenomenon of absolute pitch is in focus. The study is partly from the perspective of two groups: students with absolute pitch, and teachers with experience teaching students with absolute pitch. Above all, the study highlights how teachers adapt their teaching to students with absolute pitch and what students with abso

YouTube plays a significant role in the right wing media ecosystem, especially as an alternative source for news and information beyond traditional media outlets. PragerU is a far right YouTube channel with over 3 million subscribers and 1.7 billion views at the time of writing, which lies on the periphery of the Alternative Influence Network and subsequent alt-right pipeline. Using the organizati

Enzymes are often considered a green approach next to conventional fossil-based chemicals helping us on the margin towards a low-impact society. While enzyme catalysed reactions are low environmental impact technologies, their production is not. In this study, a comparative life cycle assessment of different recombinant enzyme manufacturing strategies quantifies and evaluates the contribution of d

Flow cytometry is a versatile tool for monitoring a microbial population at a single-cell level. Multiple parameters can be monitored based on the users’ requirements through the utilization of different dyes, biosensors etc., and the use of FCM for on-line measurements during fed-batch cultivations has the potential to be used for precise process control. This project consisted of the development

Effective climate change adaptation necessitates enhanced public participation as there is a need for the voice of people to be meaningfully incorporated to facilitate transformational adaptation, contend with complexity, and avoid maladaptation. Despite this, widespread participation in climate change adaptation governance in Global North countries like Sweden is currently restricted by rigid pow

The aim of this thesis is to study how the ideal middle-class femininity was constructed through fashion in late 19th century Sweden. Fashion have often been studied through the construction of gender, but this study aspires to show how fashion history also can be enriched when combined with closely related fields such as history of the body and of women’s morality. The theoretical framework is co

Protein stability is a property of high importance and is of interest in a variety of fields. It determines if a protein has its native fold and can be of influence in certain diseases such as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's disease. It can also be of interest in an industrial setting to optimise the stability of enzymes in certain physicochemical environments. Recent developments in machine l

As CO2 builds up in the atmosphere causing global climate change (IPCC, 2022) trees have become an international symbol of combatting this, and for good reason. Trees take up CO2 which as a result combats these changes, and when these trees are cut down fewer individuals remain to take up the CO2 that we humans emit (Chapin et al., 2011). This means that clear-cut areas don’t act as the carbon sin
