Uppsatsen har i syfte att belysa skotska lokalbefolkningars upplevelser av kommodifiering i deras närområde till följd av screen tourism, med särskilt fokus på hur detta påverkar deras kulturella identitet. Studien undersöker huruvida kommodifiering och kommersialisering upplevs ha en effekt på autenticiteten av kulturella symboler och ting som blivit varor för turistkonsumtion. Undersökningen gen
This paper discusses the project in which an algorithm was written to dynamically approach federation orchestration. This builds on and is part of the REINDEER project. In an environment with goods and online agents, and in this specific case, Contact Service Points (CSPs) and User Equipments (UEs), where the agents have different applications and make unpredictable changes such as moving around a
In light of the shortcomings of dominant recycling strategies in dealing with the plastic crisis, the circularity strategy of reuse is receiving increasing attention. Due to its goal of extending product lifespans, reuse is often seen as a more progressive strategy that aims to prevent waste rather than diverting it. Investigating the emerging phenomenon of reuse organizations in a multiple-case s
“`Soft girl´: En balansgång mellan ideal, kritik och estetik” är författad av Ylva Edén, Hanna Ström och Elin von Vultée Widtfelt och verkar inom ämnet Medie- och kommunikationsvetenskap på Lunds universitet. “Soft girl”-trenden innefattar vikten av att kvinnor kan koppla av och se till ett liv utan stress. För att nå en sådan livsstil uppmuntras kvinnor till att bortse från karriären och istället
The CO2 emissions globally are rising and halting them, faster action is needed on a country level. Why countries are not acting more ambitiously in on the challenges of climate change is researched more in detail through a case study of Japan and the Fukushima Nuclear Disaster. Therefore, this research was conducted to explore why climate action or environmental development is not more ambitious
Examensarbetets titel: Kuggifieringen av högre utbildning - En kvalitativ studie om styrning, motivation och frihet inom högre utbildning Seminariedatum: 30/05/2024 Kurs: FEKH49 - Examensarbete i organisation på kandidatnivå, 15 högskolepoäng Författare: Lucas Rodgers, Cornelia Zander och Simon Öhlin Handledare: Emilie Hesselbo Fem nyckelord: Högre utbildning, Byråkrati, Kollegialitet, Akademisk f
The building industry is one of the most polluting sectors and consumers of resources. Simultaneously, demand for housing is increasing and resources are becoming scarce. Therefore, circular practices have gained emphasis to possibly leverage this problem. This paper aims to try and explain how the development of circular practices can be explained by the Innovation Diffusion Theory (IDT). This pa
Since Kenya established mobile money in 2007, the amount of usage and diffusion surged. At the same time, financial inclusion has established itself as a topic of great research and importance for policymakers. Kenya is being viewed as one of the top performers on a national level when it comes to mobile money, as M-Pesa was one of the pioneers of introducing MM. As previous literature mainly focu

The growing proportion of green energy in the electricity grids brings with it a growing need of grid stabilizing resources to counteract the inherent intermittency of renewable energy resources. This is where the grid scale energy storages come in handy. They efficiently offset the intermittencies of solar, wind etc. resources by energy arbitrage and peak shifting. This thesis looks into the econ
The purpose of this study is to examine how companies in developed and developing countries have designed and utilized their MCSs to support the accomplishment of their sustainability agenda. The developed country is represented by Sweden, meanwhile, the developing country is represented by Indonesia. This thesis utilized a qualitative approach to gain new insights on the topic. Data was collecte
Traditionally hydraulic actuators has been the primary choice in modern submarines due to their strength and reliability. In recent years many commercial and military vehicles have switched to electromechanical alternatives, as they are generally more energy efficient and have superior controllability. These are two attributes valued in a submarine, hence an investigation was carried out to assess
Bakgrund: Familjen påverkas på olika sätt när ett barn med funktionsnedsättning föds. Det ökade omvårdnadsbehovet som barnet med Downs Syndrom kan ha gör att normtypiska syskon kan få påverkan på sina vardagsaktiviteter. Detta då mer av föräldrarnas tid läggs på barnet med Downs syndrom. Syfte: Syftet med studien är att undersöka vardagens aktiviteter och möjligheten till en meningsfull friti
Som en del i klimatomställningen av svåråtkomliga sektorer som sjöfart, flyg, och kemiindustri kan elektrobränslen komma att spela en viktig roll. I Sverige har e-metanol väckt intresse, och flera produktionsanläggninar är planerade eller under byggnation. Dessa kommer att vara stora elkonsumenter, men på grund av den traditionellt icke-flexibla metanolsyntesprocessen finns det frågetecken kring hAs a part of the climate transition of hard-to-abate sectors such as shipping, aviation, and chemical industry, electrofuels may play a key part. In Sweden, e-methanol has gained interest, and several production facilities are currently planned or under construction. These will be very large electricity consumers, but because of the traditionally inflexible methanol synthesis they may not be able
Purpose: The primary aim of the study is to investigate the influence of AI-driven personalized advertising on customer loyalty and brand engagement within the B2C market. The research will also examine how consumer perceptions of privacy and transparency in the use of AI impact these relationships. Theoretical perspective: The study’s literature review explores AI-driven personalized advertising
This paper examines the relationship between female representation on corporate boards and financial performance in Swedish publicly listed companies from 2015 to 2023, excluding the year 2018. This study explores whether a higher proportion of women on boards of directors correlates with improved financial outcomes, measured by Tobin's Q. The empirical strategy employs both pooled Ordinary Le
With the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN undergoing a major upgrade, including enhancements to the luminosity capabilities, it is essential to upgrade the main detector's components, especially ATLAS's inner detector, to ensure optimal performance. This thesis investigates the reliability testing of Inner Tracker (ITk) modules for the ATLAS experiment. It contributes to the development
Chili peppers are known for causing a pungent sensation due to the presence of capsaicinoid compounds in their fruits. In the Capsicum genus, capsaicin biosynthesis relies on the condensation of vanillylamine and the fatty acid 8-methyl-6-nonenoic acid, a reaction catalyzed by an acyltransferase. Currently, capsaicin has become a highly relevant molecule to the pharmaceutical industry due to its a
Public transportation systems provide accessible transport options for all citizens, reducing environmental impact by lowering emissions, improving traffic safety, and promoting social equity and public health. It plays a crucial role in achieving national goals related to sustainable development and climate change mitigation. However, in its aim to increase competitiveness to other modes of trans
