European policymakers are increasingly interested in encouraging and supporting social entrepreneurship. Addressing the goal, this thesis analyses the relationship between human capital and an individual’s propensity for social entrepreneurship in European countries. Additionally, it is investigated how institutional environment moderates this relationship. Utilising a dataset of the Global Entrep

Kommunal styrning av hållbara konsumtionsmönster på hushållsnivå Många svenska kommuner har antagit ambitiösa klimatmål, flera av dem försöker påverka sina invånares konsumtionsmönster, vilket är en av de största orsakerna till växthusgasutsläppen. Hur kan svenska kommuner påverka sina invånares konsumtionsvanor, när konsumtionsvalet trots allt ligger i deras händer? I denna studie jämförs hur tToday most Swedish municipalities work actively with climate change mitigation with the goal to decrease their total emissions of greenhouse gases. To achieve this, the municipalities must decrease their consumption related emissions. This is a rather new question within local governance, which begs the question, how do municipalities work to govern its citizens’ consumption patterns? This study s

Forskning visar att kvinnor känner ett större engagemang för klimatet, men också en större oro för klimatförändringar och dess konsekvenser. Tidigare forskning visar även att vita män som har en konservativ politisk orientering är de som är minst oroade för klimatförändringar. Syftet med detta kvalitativa arbete är att med hjälp av intervjuer skapa en förståelse för kvinnors upplevelse av klimatfö

Företag har genomfört stora förändringar efter att den svenska Folkhälsomyndigheten införde rekommendationer om hemarbete till följd av Covid-19 pandemin. Distansarbete har ökat kraftigt i omfattning och prognosen är att även efter pandemin kommer det flexibla arbetssättet kvarstå. Syftet med det här examensarbetet är att undersöka vilka eventuella utmaningar som distansarbete medför för framtidenCompanies have implemented major changes due to the recommendations of remote work introduced by the Swedish Public Health Agency as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic. Remote work has rapidly increased, and the forecast is that this flexible working method will remain. The purpose of this thesis is to examine which challenges remote work entails for offices in the future, and with this data presen

The purpose of this project was to investigate protein stabilization by formulation excipients during the process of freeze-drying using Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulation. A recombinant therapeutic protein, Reteplase, was used as a model and the study focused on a comparative analysis of two excipients, arginine and tranexamic acid (TXA), as included in commercially available formulations of Rete

Cross-national surveys have pointed out that environmental concern has been decreasing across the globe over time due to a focus on economic growth. While cultural and socio- demographic factors determine the degree of a lack of environmental concern, preference measures namely risk, patience, positive reciprocity, negative reciprocity, altruism and trust have found to be determinants as well. Thi

BUT A SURFACE is a product that offers a surface which helps users to switch between positions they like freely when working from home with devices like laptops. Under the COVID-19 pandemic, working from home has become a “new normal”. Compared with working in the office or school, people usually perform more relaxed in positions like sitting casually on lounge chairs or sofas when working from h

The project explores the harmful effects of excessive light exposure at night and people’s sleeping habits. Most people would use electronic devices in bed for a long time before sleep, and sometimes we fall asleep and accidentally leave the light on all night. And there are also some people who are afraid of darkness prefer to sleep with the light on all night. Sleeping with the light on delibe

The connection between general government debt levels and centralization of general government expenditure is compared in 31 countries 1995-2019 and 35 countries 1972-2019, with four country groups in each of the datasets analyzed further. Connections between centralization and changes in debt levels are found to be mostly insignificant and results unstable to the inclusion of lagged changes in de

Ett steg närmare AI-segmentering av MR-bilder Artificiell intelligens (AI) har på kort tid möjliggjort omfattande automatisering av många områden inom medicinsk teknik. En förutsättning för de framsteg som gjorts är dock tillgång till stora mängder data, vilket försvårar utvecklingen av nya lösningar inom bland annat bildanalys. Bristen på data har lett till att alternativa tillvägagångssätt har Semantic segmentation of medical images is an important task with many applications. However, manually delineating 3D images is time-consuming and the demand for automation is high. For many image segmentation tasks, deep learning has provided state-of-the-art results. However, the varying nature of magnetic resonance (MR) images due to factors such as different machine vendors and clinical protoc

Thesis Purpose: The purpose of this study is to explore if virtual influencers can be viewed as capable of developing parasocial relationships and opinion leadership. This will be researched through the virtual influencers source credibility, perceived by the Swedish audience of Instagram. This is based on previous research that has shown that the two concepts of parasocial relationships and opin

Digital technologies have brought new challenges to society, such as data privacy abuses, attacks on democracy, and even military-grade technologies being accessed by civilians. Europe has taken the leadership by regulating different aspects of the digital economy; however, these regulations may create distortions that will harm European businesses. This study tries to draw a picture of the differ

Gröna och förnybara energikällor har under åren sett ökad uppmärksamhet inom forskning och utveckling, där solceller har fått särskild uppmärksamhet. Solceller består av flera lager, eller komponenter, med olika funktioner och den här tesen fokuserar på material som bygger upp det aktiva lagret. Det aktiva lagret är det som absorberar solljus vilket exciterar elektroner till att bilda en elektriskThe interest in energy sources has shifted over the years toward sustainable energy, which has popularized the research in solar cells (among other energy sources). One of the key topics in solar cell research is the power conversion efficiency, and to understand how this can be improved one must understand the photo-induced dynamics of the solar cell material. In this thesis, we modeled the condu

The next industrial revolution has been denoted by Industry 4.0 and is the continuation of the process of knowledge acquisition and further control over the entire production process which has been evolving since the beginning of the industrialization. A paramount driver of Industry 4.0 is the smart sensor. In this master’s thesis, the first stage of a complete smart sensor will be conceptualized

Det här examensarbetet utvecklar ett koncept för infästning av fenor på jetboards som inte intränger på befintliga patent. Det resulterande konceptet medför handlingsfrihet (FTO) och följaktligen tillåter produktion av fenor med originell design. FTO innebär möjligheten till att producera och sälja en produkt utan rättsligt ansvar gentemot ägare av patent. Examensarbetet presenterar och diskuterarThis master thesis generates a concept for the means of attaching fins onto jetboards without infringing on existing patents. The resulting concept establishes freedom to operate (FTO) and enables production of fins with original designs. FTO meaning the possibility of producing and selling a product without legal liability to any patent holders. The thesis further presents and discusses user need
