project is about trying to create a concepts which represents responsible consumption and responsible production. Since my title of thesis is named “ Product Care Project” I have tried to think how products designed with care would look like. PROBLEM Through this project I am responding to intentionally produced goods for shorter life cycle and a strict control to prevent users to repair or main

In the municipality Sölvesborg in the county Blekinge located in south Sweden, there is an area which the municipality have planned as ”nature”. It is an area of forest, dominated by beech. After being in contact with the municipality ecologist we started this project with the aim to come up with ideas for how to increase the values in the area, both ecologic and social. We have also discussed how

Acoustophoresis is a method to manipulate and move cells or particles suspended in a medium using acoustic waves. The speed of the acoustophoretic motion depends on the cells' acoustic mobility, i.e. their size, density and compressibility relative to the medium. Differences in acoustic mobility can be used to separate particles from each other. Separation is an important tool within biomedica

Nationell säkerhet har varit ett viktigt ämne de senaste åren och flera olika åtgärder har implementerats för att skydda stater och deras medborgare. En av dem är att utvisa utlänningar som anses utgöra säkerhetshot. Det krävs inte att utlänningen faktiskt har begått ett brott som har hotat statens säkerhet, utan det räcker att det kan befaras att utlänningen kan begå sådana brott i framtiden. DetNational security has been an important subject over the last years and several measures have been implemented to protect states and their citizens. One of them is to expel aliens that are considered security threats. It is not required that the alien actually committed a crime that threatened the security of the state, it is enough that it can be anticipated that the alien can commit those crimes

Gruvprojekt på traditionella samiska marker har gett upphov till många rättsliga frågor, bland annat beträffande vilka deltaganderättigheter samerna har i egenskap av urfolk. Inom folkrätten är det numera allmänt accepterat att stater är skyldiga att konsultera urfolk inför beslut som rör dem. Med tanke på det särskilda band som många urfolk har till sina traditionella marker är denna princip särsMining projects on traditional Sami lands have given rise to many legal questions, one of them being which participatory rights the Sami has as an indigenous people. In international law, it has become generally accepted that states have a duty to consult indigenous peoples in decisions affecting them. Given the special bond that most indigenous peoples have to their traditional lands, this princi

An experiment to study mirror symmetry in the mass A = 60 region was performed at the Argonne National Laboratory (ANL) in 2020. The fusion-evaporation reaction 40Ca + 24Mg → 64Ge* at a beam energy of 106 MeV was used to populate excited states in 62Ge. The experimental setup used was made up of various detector systems, including Gammasphere for γ-ray detection, Microball in combination with two

It was a collision that appeared out of nowhere. Constructs representing different properties, forms, wills and histories appear in each other's view without leaving much time for reflection. More and more discussions about boundaries, meetings and connections are being held, more memories are being brought up and more fantasies about the future are being expressed on this land at the same tim

Attracting tourists from all over the world throughout the year, the flourishing of mass tourism in Bali has been perpetual for the last few decades. As both domestic and international tourists increase over time, the demand for built-up areas increases accordingly, which has caused urban expansion exploiting vegetated areas, especially agricultural lands. Consequently, this tourism-led urbanizati

Anthropogenic activities, such as using fossil fuels for energy production, synthesizing carbon-based products, and employing nitrogen fertilizers to meet the ever-growing food demand, have drastically disrupted the planet's carbon and nitrogen cycles. These activities effectively lead to global warming, eutrophication, and NOx production. Hence, the world is in need of coming up with new sust

Across the world are small local agencies connected to the United Nations. Unlike the larger bureaucratic organs that make up the UN, these smaller specialized agencies do not work to frame the founding ideals of the UN which are decided on at the highest levels within the institution, but to interpret, carry out, and monitor different mandates or programs at the local level. These agencies transl

Urban water scarcity is increasingly seen as a governance issue, not least in cities like Hyderabad, India, where the demand for urban water exceeds the available supply to the extent that some low priority areas in the city receive water for only a few hours on alternate days. Based on a multi-level perspective in transition studies, this study explores the major interplay between actors in the u

This report summarises our efforts in deriving, characterising and banking of 20 different human embryonic stem cell lines. We have derived a large number of human embryonic stem cell lines between 2001 and 2005. One of these cell lines was established under totally xeno-free culture conditions. In addition, several subclones have been established, including a karyoptypical normal clone from a tri

Diabetic peripheral polyneuropathy (PN) is a common and serious complication of diabetes. The prevalence of PN is rising with the global burden of type 2 diabetes. The causal mechanisms of PN are not fully understood, but both vascular and metabolic factors play a role. New methods of investigating PN need to be correlated with standard methods in well-defined, population-based cohorts. Objective

Objectives: The first consensus report that had been presented by the European Germ Cell Cancer Consensus Group (EGCCCG) in 2004 has found widespread approval by many colleagues throughout the world. In November 2006, the group met a second time under the auspices of the Department of Urology of the Amsterdam Medical Center, The Netherlands. Methods: Medical oncologists, urologic surgeons, radiati

This study explores the process of global sourcing through a case of the Swedish furnishing retailer IKEA from an interaction perspective. With a point of departure in the streams of existing research on global sourcing and the internationalization process of firms through networks, a research question is proposed concerning supply network interactions as an influence in the global sourcing proces

This work shows a unique possibility of visualizing the exponential intensity decay due to light extinction, when laser radiation propagates through a homogeneous scattering medium. This observation implies that the extracted intensity mostly originates from single scattering events. The filtering of this single light scattering intensity is performed by means of a single-phase structured illumina

Due to internal conflicts and an economical conversion in the mid 1900’s, the Colombian society has seen a great social transition from rural to urbanised in the last 50 years. Apart from positive impacts of urbanisation on social factors, there are hydrological issues coupled to it. With the aim to assess the impact of urbanisation on runoff peak flows in Bogota, the historical change in impervio
