Aircraft observations of precipitating clouds with cloud top temperatures higher than -38°C have revealed that Secondary Ice Production (SIP) is responsible for presence of majority of ice particles. One such SIP mechanism is fragmentation via collisions between ice particles. The central theme of this study is to understand the dependencies of this SIP mechanism and improve its existing numerical
Digital communication, and particularly social media, has radically altered the way we build and sustain relationships and thus, our sense of self. At the same time as social media platforms have provided a place that is fully designed around its users, they have also brought a new manner of portraying and making sense of oneself. Social media, in particular, has intensified this trend by fosterin
A vast majority of rural dwellings in Ukraine are inefficient from an energy perspective, with a major need for energy-efficient renovations. A lot of these buildings are also having problems with the indoor climate, with poor ventilation combined with indoor combustion of fuel which can cause negative health effects. A large part of Ukrainian households is also suffering from energy poverty which
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to illuminate how assistant nurses experienced changes and challenges in work with the elderly and their loneliness during the covid-19 pandemic.

Uppsatsen handlar om hur etnicitet formas hos svenskfödda bosnier av nationalism, uppväxt och identitet. Motivationen till studien grundar sig i att förstå hur interetniska interaktioner uttrycks bland den bosniska diasporans barn som är födda och socialiserade i Sverige. Studien bygger på dokumenteringen av svenskfödda bosniers historier och livserfarenheter med avsikt att få en djupare förståels
Brottsfenomenet romansbedrägeri kännetecknas av relationen mellan offer och förövare. Relationen mellan de två problematiserar offers status som ett fullvärdigt offer. Med utgångspunkt i viktimologi (Walklate, 2007:29-31) och teorier om det ideala offret (Christie, 1986) och victim blaming (Ryan, 1971) syftar denna uppsats till att analysera hur kvinnor utsatta för romansbedrägeri framställs i fem
The project aims to optimize the design and fabrication of InGaAs quantum-well field-effect transistor (QW-FET) by investigating transfer and output characteristics of the QW-FET. This work found a lower source/drain contact resistance solution starting with fabricating micrometer-level gate length transistors. It is a multiple-layer design, n-type InGaAs and n-type InP over channel. The stack of

Vi lever idag i ett allt mer digitaliserat samhälle. Många av de aktiviteter vi gör i vår vardag har genomgått omvälvande förändringar och flertalet grundläggande och nödvändiga tjänster är idag tillgängliga via datorer och smartmobiler. Denna digitala utveckling driver på en social acceleration som förändrar det offentliga rummet. Samtidigt som dagens accelerationssamhälle kräver att vi medborgar
The thesis explores the growing discourse of Big Data and argues that political actors like the European Union are purposefully constructing the meaning of such an issue and promoting certain strategies. The study seeks to expand the spectrum of Strategic Communication by examining a supranational political institution and to add valuable insights to the knowledge of the critical stream of Data st
Background: Starch is a well-studied material, produced by plants in granules to store energy. Starch finds a lot of applications in day-to-day life, in the food and pharmaceutical industry. This project was focusing on the utilization of starch retrogradation and the ability to form aqueous two-phase systems to prepare microspheres from the starch of different botanical sources and characterize t
Within the field of border studies, a common theoretical assumption is that national borders and national sentiments are interconnected. Some even argue that national boundaries are a precondition of national sentiments (Anderson & O'Dowd, 1999; Paasi, 1998 (b)). If one instead looks toward cross-border regions, an equally accepted theory is that national borders create regional asymmetrie
Motivated by the need for transformative change and more holistic conceptions of wellbeing, this thesis aims to explore the transformative potential of the Buen Vivir. As a synthesis of indigenous and modern principles, it was integrated in the Ecuadorian constitution. In order to evaluate the socio-political project of the Buen Vivir in the realm of a Real Utopia, I will investigate the transform
Denna uppsats syftar till att undersöka vissa komponenter inom bostadsområden och hur dessa påverkar invånarnas nivå av anknytning till området de bor i. Hur individer uppfattar byggnadsestetik, grönområden och sociabilitet i sitt bostadsområde undersöktes genom användningen av en etablerad enkät, Perceived Residential Environment Quality-enkäten. Enkäten kompletterades med ett antal frågor rörandThis thesis aims to investigate certain components of neighborhoods and how they impact the residents’ level of attachment to the area in which they live. How individuals perceive building aesthetics, green areas and sociability in their neighborhood was examined using an established survey, namely the Perceived Residential Environment Quality survey. An additional set of questions covering neighb

This bachelor thesis explores the perceptions that exist – and how these are created – among six professionals who work with violence in relationships between young people. To understand how the perceptions are created, the study uses Charles Tilly’s (2003) theory of how social categories is created and defined. The study also sheds light on how these perceptions can be understood from a feminist
The growing importance of achieving high productivity in the manufacturing industry leads to the necessity for applying high machining parameters and cutting speeds. However, the presence of self-excited vibrations of the tool shaft and workpiece under these conditions would result in undesirable surface roughness and surface integrity of the product. Thus, it is vital to study the damping mechani
Biståndshandläggare inom äldreomsorgen möter ibland äldre personer som lider av en demenssjukdom. Lagstiftningar och riktlinjer för hur arbetet med demenssjuka ska bedrivas är vaga och delvis motstridiga. Å ena sidan beskrivs vikten av självbestämmande i lagstiftningen och å andra sidan har biståndshandläggare ett ansvar att se till att ingen äldre kommer till skada eller självförsummar sig. Syfte
