Problem: Branding has developed from focusing on particular products, or organizations, to now currently on how to brand countries. When the brand is to represent a whole country, the organization needs to create conditions for employees to be able to “live the brand”. The study takes a new approach by, focusing on communication and sense making, bringing together research on nation branding with

The aim of this collaboration, between the division of Thermal Power Engineering and Lunds Energi AB, is to investigate the possibilities of training artificial neural networks (ANNs) with power plant operational data. For this purpose operational data from Lunds Energi's gas turbine GT10B with heat recovery unit (HRU) will be used. Furthermore a model with user interface is created to dem

This study examines Poland’s adhesion to the EU and the structural effects this has had on Polish exports which has grown significantly during the last two decades. The purpose is to analyze whether this growth has been the result of intensified or diversified Polish exports. In order to seize the structural effects this study decomposes the Polish trade flows into an extensive margin (new flows)

Purpose: The main purpose is to investigate a multinational corporation subsidiary established in a developing country and their current as well as their future work concerning CSR. Method: To carry out our research, we performed a theoretical study as well as an empirical. Our empirical study consisted of a qualitative case study performed at the company stated above. We used semi-structured inte

This thesis examines the nature and purpose of the Greek sciences ἀριθμητική, λογιστική and γεωμετρία in the texts of Plato. The statements of some other ancient authors are also mentioned, and the relevant modern research is consulted. ἀριθμός is at any instance, as Klein has already noted, ‘a definite number of definite objects’. In Plato’s philosophical ἀριθμητική, ἀριθμός seems to always consi

Our hands are highly intricate structures with complicated pathways for sensation and motor control. When exposed to a nerve-affecting injury, the process of rehabilitation is long and complicated, with no guarantee of success. Studies have shown that electrical stimulation proximal to the injury site could provide a way to regain sensations in the distal parts of the hand. By stimulating in diffe

Syftet med uppsatsen “priset för säkerhet” har varit att undersöka hur remissinstanserna i förfarandet om säkerhetszonerna resonerar kring mänskliga rättigheter i sina remissvar för att få förståelse för vilka intressen de värdesätter. För att uppnå detta har en deskriptiv argumentationsanalys inspirerad av Arne Næss teknik pro et contra dicere genomförts på de remissvar som lämnades in för promem

This thesis analyzes lived experiences from former juku students as well as promotional material produced by three shingakujuku (Nichinōken, Yotsuya Ōtsuka, Sapix) aimed at the private junior high school entrance examinations in Japan. The research questions aims to investigate the framing of the future and outcome of attending juku as well as how former students reflect on their own experience an

This thesis investigates the portrayal of intimate partner violence (IPV) in The Invisible Man and It Ends with Us, focusing on the cultural narratives these films construct and their broader social implications. Drawing on Critical Discourse Analysis, Stuart Hall’s Representation Theory, and Raewyn Connell’s concept of the gender order, the study explores how the films depict IPV and engage with

This thesis will explore Roman religion of the imperial time from 29 BCE until the 370’s CE as an alternative lens to enhance the academic discourse on political religion. As a case study, Marxism-Leninism which was the guiding ideology of the former German Democratic Republic (GDR) will be analysed. According to Emilio Gentile, a political religion is characterised by six criteria. It shall be (1

Den aktuella studien undersökte hur barn omkring perioden för ordförrådsspurten uppmärksammar generell form samt signifikanta detaljer vid visuell objektigenkänning, både avseende nya bild-ordpar samt för redan etablerade bild-ordpar. Event-Related Potentials (ERPs) registrerades i syfte att analysera hur barn på en neural nivå reagerar på kongruenta och inkongruenta presentationer av bild-ordpar,The present study investigated how children around the time of the vocabulary spurt attend to overall shape and significant detail in visual object recognition, regarding both novel picture-word pairs as well as already established picture-word pairs. Event-Related Potentials (ERPs) were recorded in order to analyze how children on a neural level respond to congruent and incongruent presentations

This thesis examines cluster and innovation system theory’s answer to why some firms, and not others, based in particular nations achieve international success in distinct segments, and the European Union’s recent policy efforts based on such theories. On this background a discussion on the changes needed in national economic policymaking among EU Member States when the EU starts taking a cluster

Decentralization and support to local democracy are keystones in Sweden's development cooperation. This cooperation is channelled through local partnerships in order to create fora for exchange of experiences of local self-governance and to strengthen democratic institutions on a sub-national level. This study aims to contribute to the understanding of, and to future research on, decentralizat

Author: Helena Bjerndell and Jennie Vallin Title: Blogging about grief – a modern way to grieve? Supervisor: Lena Palvén Assessor: Elizabeth Martinell Barfoed The aim of our study was to examine what function a blog about grief can serve in the grief process and the impact blogging can have on the writer. In addition, we tried to find an explanation to why people choose to write about their pri

Distributed multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO), also known as cell-free massive MIMO, has emerged as a promising technology for sixth-generation (6G) wireless networks. This letter introduces an indoor channel measurement campaign designed to explore the behavior of multipath components (MPCs) in distributed MIMO channels. Fully coherent channels were measured between eight distributed uniform

Stjärnböckerna is a book series for teenagers that was published by Svensk läraretidnings förlag 1937­­–1950. This article investigates the launch of the book series in 1937, the content of the first four books, their reception and the marketing of the book series, with the aim to gain a deeper understanding of how the publisher performed literary value. The study draws on theories about literary

Chronic airway diseases such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), together with their comorbidities, bear a significant burden on public health. Increased appreciation of molecular networks underlying inflammatory airway disease needs to be translated into new therapies for distinct phenotypes not controlled by current treatment regimens. On the other hand, development of ne

It is known that the molecular architecture plays a fundamental role in the electrical and optical properties of materials processed in the form of thin films. Here, zinc phthalocyanine (ZnPc) thin films were fabricated through the vacuum thermal evaporation technique (PVD, physical vapor deposition) up to 50 nm thickness with the objective of determining their molecular architecture and some elec

By comparing the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) proteome between Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients and controls, it may be possible to identify proteins that play a role in the disease process and thus to study the pathogenesis of AD. Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE), SYPRO Ruby staining and mass spectrometry were used for clinical screening of disease-influenced CSF proteins in AD patients c
