The Swedish national syllabi for the subject of English challenges upper secondary students to not only produce text, but to interact with and through it; students should actively engage with the learning process through reading, writing, and speaking. Previous research within this field has investigated the relationship between reading and writing, as well as how to use writing to complement the

Har ergonomi fler funktioner än att förebygga skador? Denna studie undersöker hur fyra gitarrister kan gynnas av att spela mer ergonomiskt. Gitarristerna har fått instruktioner av mig hur de ska öva med ett ergonomiskt arbetssätt. Det studien syftar på är att undersöka hur det hjälper deras uthållighet, teknik, fokus och avslappning under gitarrspelandet. Studien är utformad som aktionsforskning dDo ergonomics have more functions than preventing injuries? This study examines how four guitarists can benefit from playing with ergonomics in focus. The study examines how it helps their endurance, technique, focus and relaxation while playing guitar. The guitarists have been given instructions on how to practice more ergonomically. The study is designed as action research in which the guitarist

Today’s working life is becoming increasingly flexible, which is a consequence of and enabled by the technological development that is constantly affecting organizations around the world. According to a Swedish study from 2013 almost half (47 %) of the jobs on the Swedish labor market can be described as partly or even completely unregulated. But the question is whether this flexibility affects th

The impressive growth of smart city initiatives can be widely witnessed worldwide. These cities are launched at the effort to improve quality of citizens’ life and help city planners optimize and operationalize management of urban infrastructures. Smart cities are characterized by technologies and systems that are sources of high-volume and high-variety data sources which can be gathered, stored a

Servitut är ett rättsförhållande mellan fastigheter där den ena fastigheten har rätt att nyttja den andra fastigheten för att komplettera fastighetens behov så att den kan användas funktionellt och ändamålsenligt. En grundregel för servitut är att rättigheten ska gälla tillsvidare. I vissa situationer är det dock möjligt att upphäva servitutet. Ett servitut som upphävs är i de flesta fall berättigThe master thesis aims to examine which profit-sharing principle that is appropriate for repeal of easement for the release of development rights and if recent court deci-sions on the matter has had any impact on these situations. Easement is a legal relationship between real properties where one property is enti-tled to use the other property to complement the property's needs, so it can be

An alternative energy and chemicals must be found to meet the future demand. A possible source of renewable energy is plant oil since it has a close chemical structure to fossil oil with less refining requirement. However, vegetable oil has not made a significant contribution to replace fossil oil as an energy source because of high demand of fossil oil. It is possible to substitute fossil-based c

Lignin is found in nature as one of the most abundant biopolymers. The large amounts of lignin generated as a by-product or waste from mainly pulp and paper industry have great potential as a source of renewable (aromatic) carbon and could be applied for production of platform chemicals in the proposed circular economy/biorefinery concept. Due to the heterogenous lignin polymer structure, its degr

Smart city is a phenomenon here to stay, constantly evolving and expanding and is fast becoming a paradigm for the transformation of connected cities. More and more parts of cities are being connected and with it, the risks and issues are on the rise. However, smart city projects often overlook the pervasive cyber security risks and threats that permeates these initiatives. The endeavour of this r

The technical department usually own the Business Intelligence and Analytics (BI&A) systems. However, due to the need for faster decision-making, the business users started to demand using BI&A in their daily work as well. The traditional training for BI&I focused more on the technical people, who have proficient technical background while the business users lack technical backgrounds.

The increasing globalization of innovation activities has generated “globally organized web of complex interactions” for innovation, which are called global innovation networks (GINs). The current study on GINs has extended our understanding of network participants to the small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) from emerging economy, and enlightened us on the drivers behind the participation of

The real space behavior of the GW self-energy in the electron gas model was investigated in this thesis work. The self-energy is naturally decomposed into the screened-exchange and the Coulomb-hole components. The self-energy calculated with different electron densities as function of frequency and position was compared with the static approximation. At low frequency, the screened-exchange self-en

Eutrofiering är ett världsomspännande problem för sötvatten. Höga tillflöden av fosfor leder till försämrade förutsättningar för många typer av rovfiskar såsom abborre (Perca fluviatilis) och gädda (Esox lucius). Biomanipulation är en åtgärd som antas förbättra förutsättningarna för dessa rovfiskar, men kan samtidigt betyda försämrade förutsättningar för rovfiskarter som får konkurrensfördel av lå

Disaster risk management efforts currently focus on long-term preventive measures and post-disaster response. Outside of these, there are many short-term actions, such as evacuation or distribution of water purifications tablets, medical supplies or flood response drills, which can be implemented in the period of time between the warning and a potential disaster to reduce the risk of impacts. Howe

IS analysis and design processes rely on models for communicating requirements between business and IS professionals. Modelling standards are universally recognisable notations/languages for constructing these models. An emerging approach is to capture business decisions intended for decision automation in models. The Object Management Group has recently released a standard for this purpose, the D

Malware has proven to be a persistent problem with an increasing amount of variations, and new attack vectors are constantly being taken advantage of. Security specialists are always on the hunt for new technologies useful in the fight against malware. Blockchain technologies bring promises of high integrity, decentralization, and transparency. The technology is very much in its infancy, but previ

Syftet med denna studie är att undersöka hur dagens kosacker i Ryssland minns den 24 januari, dagen tillägnad minnet av de kosacker som dödades av bolsjevikerna under och i efterdyningarna av det ryska inbördeskriget. Studien är en diskursanalys av 5 olika artiklar som behandlar dagen. Genom diskursanalys och teorier om kollektivt minne påträffades två olika identiteter i materialet, varav den en
