Due to climate change more frequent and vigorous weather events are expected. This can be extreme precipitation that can lead to flooding, heat waves and drought. When urban areas are densified the imperviousness of the land surface will grow due to the increase of hard surfaces. This makes the areas more vulnerable to flooding and the hard surface will trap heat in the city which can result in hi
Conflicts are destructive for humans and societies, but are openings for rebuilding a more inclusive and sustainable society presented in the aftermath of conflict? This paper contributes to the growing research field and examines the link between conflict and window of opportunity for development, through a gender lens. Further, this study seeks to understand how conflict affected women’s socio
Data compression methods allow more data to be stored within a certain storage framework while still keeping the characteristics of the data in question. At the Large Hadron Collider on the grounds of CERN in Switzerland, limited data storage capability is and has always been an urgent problem. At the ATLAS experiment, one technique which allows researchers to save more data within the same storag
2017 inkom 153 olika remissyttranden från bland annat Statens skolverk och Statens kulturråd, med förslag för hur transpersoner i Sverige kan få stärkt ställning och levnadsvillkor i Sverige (SOU 2017:92). Mot bakgrund av detta har denna studie för avsikt att kartlägga trans*+sångares och sånglärares uppfattningar om och upplevelser av hur de arbetar tillsammans i individuell sångundervisningen. S153 inquiries were made in 2017 by, among others, The National Agency for Education in Sweden and the Swedish Arts Council in regard to how to improve transgender people’s position and living conditions in Sweden (SOU 2017:92). The purpose of this study is to survey the observations and experiences of trans*+ singers and singing teachers in an educational environment, and how their roles coincide
Uppsatsen ämnar att utreda, inom ramen av den svenska arbetsrätten och gig-ekonomin, vem det är som ansvarar för gig-arbetarna och deras arbetsmiljö. “Gig-ekonomin” eller även kallat “plattformsekonomin” är en arbetsform som växt fram ur digitaliseringen och har resulterat i nya sätt att organisera arbetet. Ofta beskrivs arbetet inom gig-ekonomin ur ett trepartsförhållande, där det finns en tillhaIn recent years the “gig-economy” has been established in the Swedish labor market and has grown exponentially in numbers ever since. Different forms of labor in the gig-economy include “crowd-work” and “work-on-demand via apps” under which the demand and supply of working activities is matched online or through mobile apps. Gig-work is often based on flexibility and provides a possible match of j
This paper examines how permaculture in Denmark can contribute to the green transition towards a sustainable state. Permaculture offer a practical design on how to live a sustainable life including a practical detailed design to farming. By analysing collected material through semi-structured interviews with the framework ”Capitalism and its Criticism” originated from the two sociologist Boltanski
Planning for capacity in not just the production, but also in the supply chain, is important. Strategic long-term planning for the supply chain will affect how the company will be able to meet the demand. This Master Thesis will focus on the capacities within the supply chain at PolyPeptide and how they could be planned for in the future. PolyPeptide is a company that manufactures active pharmaceu
I en samtid där akademisk prestation är en allt viktigare aspekt för framtida framgång blir det angeläget att veta vilka faktorer som kan inverka på det. Anknytning har visat sig ha en väsentlig roll i vår utveckling och därav väcks frågeställningen kring vilken betydelse anknytning har för akademisk prestation. I den här systematiska narrativa kunskapsöversikten har vi granskat och eftersökt redaIn a time where academic achievement is a key factor for future success, the importance of knowing which factors have an impact on achievement is crucial. Parent-child attachment has shown to have an essential role in our development and therefore the question of which role attachment has on academic achievement is awoken. In this systematic narrative review we have examined and sought after exist
Background/Problematization: Iconic brands are the gold standard of branding and have established a central role in the consumers’ lives. Behind every iconic brand, we can find iconic products. Despite the importance of these products, iconic products are overlooked in academia. Few studies have explored the concept and there is no common definition or comprehensive framework. This is restrictive
Den bakomliggande orsaken till att islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP) är cytotoxisk mot β-celler från bukspottkörteln tros vara prefibrillära oligomerer. Oligomererna skapas då IAPP ändrar konformation till amyloidfibriller. Förlusten av β-celler från cellklusterna har kopplats till typ II-diabetes. Ytterligare kunskap om hur man hindrar IAPP från att växla till den giftiga oligomerformen är oerhörtPrefibrillar oligomers are thought to be the “culprit” behind the cytotoxicity of islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP) to pancreatic islet β-cells. The oligomers are generated in the process of IAPP’s conformational change into amyloid fibrils. The depletion of islet β-cells has been connected to type II diabetes. Knowledge of how to stop IAPP from switching into the cytotoxic oligomer form is of the
Under de senaste 30 åren har migrationsförvar (Engelska: Detention centers) blivit metoden att föredra när det gäller hanteringen av migrationsströmmarna i flera länder inom Europeiska Unionen (EU). I samband med den ökade användningen har det även skett en förändring från att stater har ett slags monopol gällande hanteringen av migrationsfunktioner till att stater delegerar (Engelska: Outsource) In the last three decades, detention centers have become the preferred method to manage the migration flow in multiple states within the European Union (EU). In correlation to the increasing use of detention centers, there has been a shift from states having a type of monopoly on migration management functions, to an increase of states outsourcing their responsibility to private companies. When st
The coherent coupling of photons to solid state emitters is one of the building blocks for future quantum technology. However, one of the main sources for non-perfect or even strongly reduced coherence of the photons is charge noise which introduces energy shifts during or in between the photon emission events. In particular solid-state emitters in nanostructures suffer from such spectral diffusio

This project aims to propose an alternative memory architecture that allows space for a society to process and heal after having experienced collective trauma. The project site and setting is my mother’s home country Chile where the military coup in 1973 and the following dictatorship is still a source of grief and conflict. The point of departure for the project is the concept of architecture
This master thesis investigates how to perform irrational decimation, the process of reducing the sample rate of a signal, for high throughput systems. The thesis work consists both an algorithmic part and an implementation part. In the algorithmic part, an algorithm that could cope with the requirements is found, and investigated due to different aspects. A group of filters that are investigate
This is a qualitative study on the characters of Ronja, the robber’s daughter and how they have been interpreted in Studio Ghibli’s anime version. It focuses on characterization from the perspective of role language and character language and how they reinforce the themes and characters of Ronja. Example sentences have been analyzed and discussed from various major characters. In summary, role lan
Recent surveys show that on average about 70% of the area budget of the system on chip (SoC) is occupied by Static Random Access Memory (SRAM)s, with a capacity ranging from a few kilo-bits to tens of megabits. SRAM (static RAM or SRAM) is a type of electronic memory that uses bistable latching circuitry (flip-flop) to store each bit. SRAM is volatile in the conventional sense that data is eventua
