Thesis Purpose: This study has a twofold purpose. First, the authors want to contribute to research on idea evaluation in the fuzzy front end by specifically shedding light on the food industry as this sector differs from other industries (Galizzi & Venturini, 1996; Tidd & Bessant, 2014; Triguero, Córcoles & Cuerva, 2013). Second, different evaluation criteria will be outlined for high
Immigrant entrepreneurs who get involved in the restaurant industry face different challenges to promote their restaurants and attract new customers. However, immigrant entrepreneurs’ cultural capital is an important asset that can be exploited to overcome these challenges. This paper seeks to identify and explore what is the cultural capital that immigrant entrepreneurs use as marketing strategie
Endowed with diverse vegetation covers, the Middle Atlas Mountains receive substantial snowfall in winter, which contributes to plant hydration during the growing season. Using remotely-sensed imagery, this study aims to assess the trends in snow cover variations between 2000 and 2015, analyse the local influence of snowpack persistence on vegetation growth and evaluate the significance of this ef
The aim of this study is to explore the relationship of recent Turkish immigrants with the city of Berlin through the lens of media and communication, and to identify the identity dynamics in this relationship. The relationship with, and links of immigrants to their countries of origin is a common subject in diaspora studies, human geography, and media and communication studies. However, more rese
Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka till vilken grad FN:s deklaration om de universella mänskliga rättigheterna (UDHR) kan anses vara präglad av en västerländsk uppfattning om mänskliga rättigheter. För att avgöra detta tittar jag på dels UDHR:s tillkomst, dels på dess innehåll och jämför detta med andra rättighetskataloger och deras bakomliggande rättstraditioner. Fokuset ligger på hur UDHRThe purpose of this essay is to critically examine if the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (the UDHR) is characterized by a Western perception of human rights and to examine the effects of such a characterization. This is attempted through studying the process in drafting and passing the Declaration and by looking at the content of the Declaration. When looking at the drafting and passing o
Cooling systems based on magnetic refrigeration are a promising and environmentally friendly alternative to commonly used gas-compression refrigeration. Magnetic refrigeration is based on the magnetocaloric effect. This effect denotes a temperature change of a magnetic material due to a change in its intrinsic magnetic properties, induced by a change in an external applied magnetic field. MnCoSi i

Frågeställningar: Hur arbetar bygg- och rivningsentreprenörer mot en cirkulär ekonomi? Vilka krav ställer beställaren på entreprenören om avfallshanteringen i ett rivningsprojekt? Hur planerar entreprenörerna för återvinning och återbruk av rivningsmaterial? Vilka hinder finns det med cirkulär ekonomi? Vad händer med de material som inte går att återbruka? Syfte: Syftet med studien är att undersAbstract Problem statements: How do building- and demolition companies transition towards a circular economy? What requirements does the developer place on the contractor regarding waste management in a demolition project? How do contractors plan for recycling and reuse of demolition materials? What are the obstacles faced towards a circular economy? What happens to the materials that can’t be re
Luminiscensdatering är ett viktigt verktyg inom geologin för att tidsbestämma geologiska avsättningsprocesser i jordens historia. Grundförutsättningen för en korrekt datering är att luminiscenssignalen genererad från ett mineral nollställs vid kontakt med solljus. Vid insamling och preparering av provmaterial är det därför av yttersta vikt att ingen ljusexponering inträffar som eventuellt nollstälLuminescence dating provides an important tool in geology to reconstruct geological depositions events in the Earth’s past. The basic assumption for a reliable dating is that luminescence generated from minerals resets at the time when it was last exposed to sunlight. The accuracy and precision of luminescence dating is therefore strongly dependant on preparation of the sediment to be in dark cond
This thesis deploys ethnographic tools in a qualitative case study to explore the internet community, Female Dating Strategy (FDS). As narratives surrounding the “crisis of masculinity” are popularised within politics and mainstream media, the objective of research becomes to scrutinise these conceptualisations. This thesis does so by focusing on the field of intimacy and sexuality, by raising the
Amine transaminases are valuable biocatalysts in the pharmaceutical industry for the production of chiral amines. Their high regioselectivity and inherent regeneration of cofactor pose them as a greener alternative to the chemical synthesis. However, their application is hampered by their limited stability and narrow substrate scope and product inhibition. Recently, a stable tetrameric amine trans
Due to the progressing environmental problems related to global warming, the chemical industry is transitioning from fossil to renewable feedstocks. For added environmental benefits, surplus biomass from the agricultural industry which currently does not have any high-value applications can be used for production of chemicals. This master thesis is written as a part of the tech-no-economic analysi
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
Under anaerobic condition the specific growth rate of Lactobacillus reuteri DSM 17938 on different sugars, was analyzed using spectrophotometry. Electron acceptor (fructose) supported cells to cope with poor energy recovery by re-oxidising the NADH, thus enabling ATP formation thru acetate production, while fermenting glucose via the phosphoketolase pathway (PKP) and simultaneously operating via E
Bio-based plastics are increasingly considered as sustainable alternatives to fossil-based plastics. Up until now, their application in the food packaging industry has been limited. The purpose of this study is to investigate the applicability of bio-based polymer packaging films for bakery products, herbs and spices in the meal kit industry context and to assess their contribution towards a more
Den 18 mars 2016 publicerade Europeiska Rådet en överenskommelse på sin hemsida. Den blev känd som ’EU-Turkiet-avtalet’ och gick ut på att asylsökande skickas tillbaka från de grekiska öarna till Turkiet. I utbyte får Turkiet bl a ekonomisk kompensation och ökade chanser till visafrihet och EU-medlemskap. Bland allmänheten möttes avtalet av kritik eftersom det överförde ansvaret för asylsökande tOn 18 March 2016, the European Council published a press release on their deal with Turkey to readmit asylum seekers from the Greek Islands. It was headed 'EU-Turkey Statement'. In return for accepting the readmitted migrants, Turkey would receive financial compensation and increased possibilities of visa freedom and EU membership. In the general public, the agreement was criticized for s
With increasing amounts of generated research data, relevant for saving and sharing, as well as higher demands on more open and transparent research, research data management has become an important issue for all involved in the research community. Open access to research data is promoted using arguments concerning public good, research transparency and quality control, the bringing of new researc
Den svenska företagsbeskattningen baseras på att varje enskilt företag är ett självständigt skattskyldigt subjekt. Däremot finns vissa möjligheter att beakta flera företags resultat av näringsverksamhet när dessa ingår i en koncern. Ett alternativ som har ställts upp är de skatterättsliga koncernbidragen. Då koncernbidragsreglerna aktualiseras och en värdeöverföring har skett mellan två företag inSwedish corporate taxation is based on the fact that each individual company is an independently taxable subject. On the other hand, in some circumstances it is possible to take into account several companies' income of economic activities, when these are part of a corporate group. One option available is the group contribution. If the rules concerning group contributions are applicable and a
For most people getting a stroller is an obvious thing to do when having a baby. It’s mainly used for transportation of the baby but has other functions as well. For example, it is used as a storage, serves as a shopping bag for groceries and makes a perfect bed for a baby nap. Using a stroller should be easy and safe, but when it’s getting dark outside it can be hard to see the road ahead and fin
