Modern electronics are becoming more powerful and energy efficient for every new process generation. A key component in electronics is the transistor, which has made this trend possible. For many years the transistor has simply been scaled down.However, that is not possible any longer. To continue improving the transistor, new structures and materials need to be researched. A promising topic in th
Abstract Introduction: This paper aims to explore the alignment of managerial competencies in higher education and the labor market by conducting a Case Study on the MSc in Management (MiM) at Lund University School of Economics and Management (LUSEM). Method: Managerial competencies were identified through content analysis in entry-level management job advertisements in the Swedish Öresund regi
This paper studies the effect of corruption on four selected health outcomes, by using cross- country panel data, containing the 36 member states of OECD. The time period stretches from 1995 to 2017, extending upon previous studies by including data from more recent years. In order to estimate the effects of corruption, the paper uses Ordinary Least Squares, fixed effects and two-way fixed effects
This thesis aims to investigate the different mechanisms that Chinese companies in green industries used to acquire technological capabilities and how they changed over time. The thesis also aims to examine how the geographical pattern in outbound Chinese greenfield foreign direct investment has changed over time. By examining the inbound and outbound greenfield foreign direct investment pattern i
Honey is generally considered to be a healthier option than white sugar, and humans can replace sugar with honey and still maintain a healthy diet. While effects on the body caused by sugar and honey have been investigated, the environmental impact of organic sugar and organic honey has not yet been investigated and compared. The purpose of this study was to perform an overview of the environmenta
Exercising leadership on the edge - this is a condition that concerns managers at ComWire in Dalborg. Due to a persistent organizational crisis which is characterized by uncertainty, doubt, and frustration, ComWire Dalborg seems to have lost some of its identity appeal. This context constitutes the foundation for our qualitative study intending to comprehend leadership in an environment where a fo
As the world population and the world economy continues increasing, theoverallconsumption in some parts of the world reach even more unsustainable proportions, which in turn leads to negative climate effects. To deal with this problem along with others, the concept circular economy has gained great importance.The aim of the circular economy is to minimize and prevent the upcoming of waste and to m
The development of new wireless cellular network technologies is always in progress. As 3G has been considered the foundation of mobile broadband, the latest generation of cellular mobile communications, that is, 5G New Radio, is expected to realize the networked society, where everyone and everything are seamlessly connected everywhere and every time. To ensure the connectivity and provide the re
Operahus runt om i Sverige är i brist på kompetenta repetitörer. Utförandet av ett klaverutdrag kräver utökad kunskap än bara tekniska färdigheter. Därför undersöker jag i denna uppsats inlärningsprocessen till en djupare förståelse till pianoreduktionen av en opera. Min metod har varit att studera bakgrund och kontext till operans framkomst, analysera librettot, textens roll i musiken och det
Cell culturing is most commonly performed in conventional 96-well plates where cells are grown in a monolayer, on two-dimensional (2D) surfaces. However, a tumor grows in three dimensions (3D) in the human body and exhibits complex features that cannot be translated onto a 2D system. Likewise, an anti-cancer drug that has been pre-clinically tested in a 2D system is likely to fail clinical trials.
För att utvärdera en relativt ny typ av filterbottensystem som finns installerat i ett flertal vattenverk i Sverige så gjordes en bedömning av samspelet mellan ett snabbfilters prestanda och dess filterbottensystem. Målet var att bedöma filterbottensystemets påverkan på kvaliteten av det filtrerade vattnet och på energikonsumtionen under backspolningsprocessen och att använda denna information förThe interplay between the performance of a rapid gravity filter and its underdrain system was to be assessed in order to evaluate the performance of an unconventional underdrain system that is installed in a number of water treatment plants in Sweden. The aim was to assess the influence of the underdrain system on the filtered water quality and the energy efficiency of the backwash process of the
To understand how American cities “walk the talk” regarding climate change adaptation, the question “What effect do American city-wide adaptation efforts have on urban development trends?” is posed. The method covers the breadth and depth of the subject by studying the overall national climate discourse and utilizing three major American cities as case studies. Findings confirm adaptation efforts
The Brazilian LGBT movement has established in the last decades a strategy of action based on the achievement of social transformations through law. The struggle for human rights has become the focal point of the LGBT agenda in the country. For this reason, the linkages between the Brazilian LGBT movement and the law have multiplied. Having the objective of reflecting on the articulations arising
Kollektivtrafik är ett bra sätt för människor att resa mer socialt och miljövänligt. Det är därför viktigt att ha ett välfungerande system för kollektivtrafik. En stor del av det är att de pendlare som reser med tåg har en bra upplevelse. Om tågen är överdrivna med människor förlorar den sin konkurrenskraft med andra transportmedel som bilar. I denna rapport har undersökt hur andelen pendlare har Public transport is a great way for people to travel more socially and environmentally friendly. It is therefore important to have a well-functioning system for public transport. A large part of that is making sure the commuters whom travel by train has a good experience. If the trains are overstuffed with people, it loses its competitiveness with other means of transport such as cars. This report
The international occupational safety and health law is structured by international human rights in- struments and regulations issued by the ILO. OSH responsibilities are assigned to each stakeholder engaged in workers’ working process. The international OSH legal system as well is a legal basis for countries to set up their own OSH legal systems at the national level. Though core concerns of this
Until year 2050 the world population will be increased with more than two billion people, this will lead to high demands of food supply. At the same time many of the worlds fish stocks are overfished or under a lot of pressure due to the environment. This study has investigated the pros and cons with recirculating aquacultursystems from the viewpoint’s energy use, carbon dioxide emissions and ethi
The 4th Industrial Revolution provides a window of opportunity for the developing world and in particular, Sub-Saharan Africa to catch-up in terms of social and economic development by enhancing growth through technological advances. At the same time, it bears the risk for Sub-Saharan Africa to fall even further behind if technological advances cannot be absorbed into the region’s economies. Altho
This thesis captures the effect of social capital measured as social and institutional trust on a reduction of absolute poverty. The indicators of social capital are captured through the construction of a database of subjective well-being measures. Poverty is indicated using the Watt’s index which measures the mean proportionate poverty gap for those living under the extreme poverty line of $1.90
