How are non-heterosexual spaces for men constructed and how can we understand them? What purpose do they fill? Where does non-heterosexual men go looking to find other nonheterosexual men? This Bachelor thesis in Gender Studies explore the answers to these questions. Inspired by ’’Såna på Amerikabåtarna’’ a sociological study by Arne Nilsson the research of this thesis is drawing on four qualitati
Purpose: The purpose of the study was to understand the key managerial challenges associated with Big Data. The research aimed to look at the possible obstacles that managers need to overcome while implementing Big Data. The main research question is : What are the main managerial challenges associated with Big Data and what steps are needed to overcome those? Methodology: Based on the concepts of
Sustainability has long been serving dominant political and economic interests under the guise of sustainable development. This political and economic co-option of sustainable development has given rise to a new slogan: “system change, not climate change”. Our crisis is no longer just an environmental one, but a structural one, in which our means of living have outdistanced the ends for which we l
This thesis investigates the reasons behind the continuation of legitimisation for the ruling party in Singapore, despite its undemocratic practices. The main hypothesis is that the ruling party has effectively utilised competitive authoritarianism, which involves the use of manipulation and repression to maintain control over the public and convince or pressure them to vote for the party. Through
Peptides are abundant in all living organisms and essential to many cellular functions. For this purpose, peptides are interesting research targets. The chemical moieties and molecules that are involved in peptide interactions and systems, respectively, are intrinsically non-emissive or weakly emissive, which is why researchers have found strategies for labeling peptides. Today, peptides are typic
Uppsatsen undersöker den internationella straffrättens förväntningar på ansvarighållandet av företagsledare på individnivå. Vidare utreds huruvida nationell rätt, här svensk rätt i jämförelse med tysk, uppfyller de krav och förväntningar som den internationella straffrätten ställer på nationell reglering. Dessutom syftar uppsatsen till att sätta svensk reglering av medverkansansvar för företagsledThe thesis investigates the expectations of international criminal law on the prosecution of corporate leaders on an international and domestic level for international crimes based on the sources, purposes, and principles guiding international criminal law. Also, this thesis examines whether domestic law, here Swedish, is compliant with the obligations and expectations presented by international c
Syftet med denna studien var att undersöka hur kommunikation som sägs vara icke-stereotypisk framställer genus och utmanar eller reproducerar traditionella stereotyper i reklam. För att studera detta fenomen valdes det svenska företaget Estrid ut, som säger sig kommunicera till alla människor. Genom att studera detta fenomen har studien bidragit med kunskap kring hur visuell kommunikation kan bådeThis paper aimed to investigate how advertising stereotypes can be challenged or reproduced and how gender is performed, in the context of an allegedly non-stereotypical company. In order to investigate this matter, we conducted a multimodal social semiotic analysis of the Swedish company Estrid, whose razor blades are communicated to all humans. By analyzing various semiotic resources, the paper
The reinforced composite industry is expanding. This raises the need for more sustainable resource use and waste management. A concept to combat both is circularity, creating a loop between the raw resources and the waste. Two important parts of circularity are recycling and reusing. This thesis presents literature studies on recycling, reuse and end-of-life methods for glass fibre-reinforced plas
Energy cooperatives are seen as a way to achieve energy democracy in both academic and activist circles, with often an implicit expectation that they also contribute to energy justice. These assumptions are increasingly being questioned, often on the grounds of the limited diversity of energy cooperative membership. I conducted semi-structured interviews with four German energy cooperatives in ord
Title: Improving the packaging material availability for internal testing - A case study at Tetra Pak Keywords: Supply chain management, process mapping, procurement, visibility, order handling, supply chain information systems. Background: For any business, optimizing the supply chain is beneficial and can be a crucial competitive advantage. Additionally, the significance of optimization is eve
Several researchers have approached the subject of VUCA and the challenges of operating in a VUCA world. However, previous research seldom addresses specifically how the work can be done or how these qualities and skills can be developed. The purpose of this study is to help professionals responsible for competence development in their work to enable employees to handle a VUCA world. Therefore, th
In this project, a neutron delivery system for the study of free neutron oscillations at the HIBEAM beamline at the European Spallation Source (ESS) has been developed. The HIBEAM experiment is part of a two-stage program at ESS which will address open questions in physics; specifically the nature of dark matter and the observed asymmetry between matter and antimatter in the Universe. This will be
An important factor in preventing food waste is the ability to provide a product with a package according to its needs. The packaging material, in turn, needs to be recyclable in order to contribute to a circular use of materials rather than becoming waste. The aim of this thesis is to examine the difference between the current and future packaging material of coffee produced by Zoégas. The curren
Strong narrowband interference can significantly degrade the sensitivity of wideband receivers by driving front-end circuitry into nonlinear operation. This thesis presents the design, fabrication, and measurement of a 2 – 4.4 GHz electrically tunable varactor-based bandstop filter that can follow and block such narrowband interference before it causes problems in the receiver. It was developed us
Aortic valve stenosis is a common congenital heart defect among children. In affected patients, the normal tricuspid valve structure is malformed into a bicuspid valve structure due to a fusion at one commissure. A common treatment is transcatheter balloon valvuloplasty, where a balloon is inserted through the aortic valve and inflated to mechanically tear the fused region, restoring a tricuspid s
This study investigates the optimization of Cleaning-In-Place (CIP) programs for Ultra-High Temperature (UHT) equipment used in oat drink production. The research comprises three main experiments: an Identification of the largest cleaning load product, an Assessment of improved CIP programs, and an Investigation of deposit composition in the flash cooler. The Identification of the largest cleanin
Introduction Illicit maritime activities frequently involve "dark" vessels that disable or manipulate their Automatic Identification System (AIS) signals to evade detection. This study evaluates the effectiveness of Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) and Optical imagery for vessel detection using both “manual” and automated Deep Learning (DL) methods while integrating AIS data to validate, i
Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) circuits are critical in modern Wi-Fi receivers, playing a key role in power management and protecting the radio frequency (RF) front-end from saturation and potential damage. This thesis presents the design and evaluation of a novel rectifier circuit conceptualized for use in an RSSI system within an industry-standard 22nm CMOS node, specifically targetin
