This essay explores modernization in Asia through the lens of the Meiji Restoration in Japan and the Self-Strengthening Movement in China during the nineteenth century. Japan and China, although with similar cultural, economic and social background and under similar contemporary contexts, took separate paths in modernization and therefore experienced very different outcomes. This comparative study

This thesis presents SenQB - Sentence Query Builder - a visual query builder that is based on a graphical representation of how a database query would be posed in natural language as a sentence. The SenQB design is the result of usability evaluation conducted with non technical users as a main target group. Three mockups are usability tested and one of them, SenQB, is implemented as a proof of con
The project analyzes, implements, and tests different types of heterogeneous sensor fusion, and comparatively checks them against a ground truth. Four different cases are tested, only image data, only non-image data, sequential fusion of data, and parallel fusion of data. The tracking is done with a probabilistic data association filter, which is a variation of the standard Kalman filter. The met
The superfamily Dysderoidea, a species-rich clade of haplogyne araneomorph spiders encompassing members that are all expected to exhibit holokinetic chromosome structure, is cytogenetically explored for this thesis. Holokinetic chromosomes lack primary constriction and centromere. In contrast to standard chromosomes, kinetochore covers most of chromosome surface of the holokinetic chromosomes. Hol
Titel: Styr normer ICA-butiker? Kurs: FEKH69 Examensarbete i redovisning, 15 hp Författare: Maja Binkowsky, Liridona Gashi, och Louise Persson Handledare: Peter W. Jönsson Nyckelord: Styrning, ICA, normer, normativt tryck, decentralisering Syfte: Syftet med studien är att jämföra och analysera styrningen inom ICA-butiker och huruvida det finns ett normativt tryck inom ICA hur butikerna ska styr
Biodiesel is an important alternative to ordinary diesel when limiting the effects on the climate. However, the production path of biodiesel produces a wastewater with a high chemical oxygen demand (COD) and it needs to be cleaned. The aim of this study was to characterise biodiesel wastewater as well as to suggest treatment options. The biodiesel wastewater studied came from a biodiesel plant i
Our study sought to reveal whether social power affects Facebook behaviour in a similar manner that it affects behaviour in the real world. We predicted that participants in the high power condition would be more active on Facebook compared to both low power and control conditions, while low power participants would be less active on Facebook. Participants in the experimental condition went throug
Detta examensarbete undersöker hur lärare och elever upplever sin tid på kulturskolan respektive musikinstitutet i Sverige och Finland. Syftet bakom studien är att se hur lärare och elever i respektive länder ser på sin undervisning, med de skillnader som finns i strukturen. I såväl finländska som svenska musikskolor är primärmålet inte att eleverna ska söka vidare till högskolor och målen som sätThis thesis is investigating how teachers and students experience their time at music schools in Sweden and Finland. The purpose of this study is to see how teachers and students in both countries see their education, with their structural differences. The main aims of both Finnish and Swedish music schools is not to get the students to apply to higher music education. The goals for the students a
År 2004 anlade Svedala avloppsreningsverk tio vassbäddar. P.g.a. komplikationer behövde dock bäddarna tas ur bruk efter några års användning. Åtta bäddar står nu outnyttjade, medan två tagits i bruk på prov. Kommunen är intresserad av att undersöka möjligheten att konvertera resterande vassbäddar till utjämningsmagasin, för att reducera interna flöden och begränsa att bräddningar sker. Reningsproc
This thesis evaluates the concept of Energy Harvesting as a power source for a serial measurement board used by ABB robots. A background study of possible energy harvesters is included, where the main focus is put on the overall function and what parameters determine the maximum generated power and efficiencies. Furthermore, a design of a physical proof of concept for solar as an Energy Harvestin
The last decades the modern sporthorse have changed a lot, both physically and in temperament. Horses have gotten more athletic, sensitive and faster. Selective breeding, new science findings and more competition, in combination with a role change from workhorse to sporthorse have made this change possible. The idea to investigate and develop horse equipment was initialised during meetings with th
Hydrogenation is a universal reaction, which is widely used in industry and academy. However, the reaction is not easy to be studied in extreme conditions such as high temperature and high pressure. On top of that, using Raman spectroscopy to observe the reaction is not so customary. Due to these aspects, the experiment was carried out. During the working process, the degradation reaction was also
What is considered a good political leadership is a highly topical issue. Today we see a variety of political leaders, of which the integrity of the position connected to the right character, in many ways is analysed and questioned. The trend is that we are moving towards a personification of political leaders where personal appearance plays an increasing role. We live with perceptions of how a
Påföljden för mord ändrades år 2009 och en mer nyanserad påföljdsmodell infördes. Tidigare hade påföljden för mord antingen varit fängelse i 10 år eller på livstid, men nu infördes istället en modell, som gav domstolarna mer utrymme att utdöma tidsbestämda fängelsestraff mellan 10 och 18 år samt på livstid. Rättspraxis har förändrats under årens lopp, men genomgående har det uttalats att livstidThe penalty for murder was modified in 2009 and a more nuanced model of penalty was introduced. Earlier the penalty for murder either was prison being jailed for 10 years or life imprisonment, but now there instead was a model introduced that gave the courts more space to judge fixed term sentences between 10 and 18 years as well as for life imprisonment. Case law has been changed over the years,
Hur kan vi förstå och tolka massmedias rapportering i artiklar om Ryssland. Hur kan vi förstå och tolka medias rapportering? Spekulerar de eller rapportera de fakta? Dessa frågor är i centrum på grund av den senaste tidens debatt i media om falska nyheter och desinformation. I denna uppsats görs en innehållsanalys av tidningsartiklar som är knutna till ämnet Ryssland, under tiden 29 oktober 2016 t
This study examines the relationship between textual and visual narratives as well as the gaze upon the Orient as Other by analysing a Swedish, illustrated edition of the Arabian Nights from 1958-63. This research draws upon a multitude of theoretical perspectives on the gaze from the field of visual culture, combined with Edward Said’s critical notion of orientalism. The material is studied in t
Bostadsbristen slår hårdast mot dem som redan står längst ifrån bostadsmarknaden. Unga, nysvenskar och äldre har fått det svårare att få sina bostadsbehov tillgodosedda. Det svenska bostadsbyggandet har sedan år 2006 varit lågt i förhållande till befolkningsutvecklingen (Boverket 2015:a). Effekterna av ett lågt bostadsbyggande är bland annat en ökad trångboddhet, osäkra boendeförhållanden, svarthaThe effects of a housing shortage will be hardest on those groups, who are far from being a part of the housing market. It is becoming more and more difficult for young adults, immigrants and elderly to find a solution for their housing needs in Sweden. Since 2006, the rate of construction of housing in Sweden has been relatively low compared to the population growth rate (Boverket 2015:a). The ef
