Fragmentation from the extraction of bone marrow for consumption is a common phenomenon in archaeological assemblages, because of the high fat content of bone marrow, it was an important source of sustenance in prehistory. From the perspective of marrow fracturing, analysis of these fragmented refuse materials gives insight into the general strategies for harvesting bone marrow. The fragmentation
This study investigated whether the emotional attitudes a person experiences toward another individual influence episodic memory for items associated with that individual.

The participants were afterwards asked to report experience
This thesis analyses Georgian history textbooks to examine how the narrative of “choosing Europe” is constructed and reconstructed across political periods from 1920 to 2023. The study explains how the nation articulates itself and reimagines its identity in a changing world.

Att bära ett kristet kors runt halsen, en muslimsk huvudduk eller judisk kippa på huvudet är exempel på religiösa manifestationer som arbetsgivaren kan förbjuda genom att införa en neutralitetspolicy, och detta har varit återkommande anledning till debatt i Sverige under de senaste åren. Frågan om neutralitetspolicyer, och arbetsgivarpolicyer i stort, har satt svenska arbetsgivare i en svår situatTo wear a Christian cross around the neck, an Islamic headscarf or a Jewish kippah on the head are examples of religious manifestations which an employer may prohibit through a neutrality policy, and this has been a recurring cause for debate in Sweden in recent years. The question of neutrality policies, and employer policies in general, has put Swedish employers in a difficult situation due to t
Denna uppsats har undersökt rätten för en icke-skadad stat att vidta kollektiva kontraåtgärder enligt folkrättens statsansvarsregler. Kollektiva kontraåtgärder innebär att en icke-skadad stat (enligt Artikel 42 ARSIWA) kan vidta kontraåtgärder mot en annan stat, när den staten brutit mot förpliktelser erga omnes (partes), även kallade kommunitära normer (på engelska communitarian norms). Sådana föThis thesis has examined the right of a non-injured state to take collective countermeasures under international state responsibility law. The concept of collective countermeasures refers to countermeasures that are taken by non-injured states (in the sense of Article 42 ARSIWA) in response to breaches of obligations erga omnes (partes), otherwise referred to as communitarian norms.

This thesis examines the effects of pseudo and quasi-random number generators on the accuracy and efficiency of Monte Carlo Integration in the case of the multivariate normal distribution. The study compares the performance of the Mersenne Twister (a pseudo-random number generator) with Sobol and Halton sequences (quasi-random number generators). By evaluating these generators across different dim
The textile industry represents a major economic sector with millions employed. With over 200 trillion litres of water consumed each year, it is responsible for a tenth of global emissions, dwarfing aviation and maritime shipping, combined. The wastewater generated is predominantly non-biodegradable, constituting a complex matrix of various contaminants that have long-lasting effects on aquatic an
The integration of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) into real estate analysis has long been considered an interesting interdisciplinary pursuit, but has yet to become mainstream. Despite the increasing academic focus over the last twenty years, this endeavour has mostly been approached from the scientific side of Geography. Inversely, such focus from the real estate sector remains marginal. No
The concept of servitization has brought about a significant transformation in numerous industries, signaling a strategic shift from a focus on goods to a service-oriented perspective. With the ascent of “Games as a Service”, Service-dominant logic is highly relevant in understanding games as a service. where players emerge as co-creators of value, shaping their unique experiences and meaning in t
The incidence of oropharyngeal cancer (OPC) is increasing in developed countries, and OPC is associated with human papillomavirus infection [1, 2]. Immunotherapies show promise as an end-stage treatment for immune-infiltrated tumours. They are only efficacious in 18% of patients leading to investigation of the immune compartment to comprehend which factors contribute to effective treatments. Anti-
This essay aims to evaluate the visions of the culture policy of the Swedish municipality of Norrköping during 2023. In Norrköping the municipal council has decided that costs for various parts of publicly funded culture are too high. Therefore they consider privatizing these institutions or making them perform commercial works to a larger extent. The study uses a normative method, where a norm ha
Challenger parties are a popular topic of interest in political science. Prior research on challenger parties is predominantly regarding their characteristics and effects on the political climate. However, the transition from challenger to mainstream is less investigated. Moreover, prior research on challenger parties is, albeit not exclusively, heavily focused on right wing populist parties.

År 1958 trädde New York-konventionen om erkännande och verkställighet av utländska skiljedomar (NYK) i kraft. Även om det funnits föregångare, markerar konventionens tillkomst startskottet för skiljeförfarandets starka ställning som internationell tvistlösningsmetod. Den välvilliga inställning som konventionen har gentemot erkännande och verkställighet av utländska skiljedomar har accepterats av dIn 1958, the New York Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards (NYC) came into force. Although there had been predecessors, the adoption of the convention marks the beginning of arbitra-tion's strong position as an international dispute resolution method.

ISIS committed mass atrocities against the Yazidis (Kurdish: Êzîdîs) in Sinjar (Kurdish: Şingal), Iraq, in 2014-2017. Several international and regional observers have qualified the acts as genocide under international law. Yet the numerous social, cultural, and political preconditions of the genocide are not recognized in the 1948 Genocide Convention. To answer the line of question, Susan Opotow’
Magnesium alloys are promising candidates for biomedical implants due to their ability to dissolve in the human body, which improves the surgical procedures making a secondary surgery to remove the implant unnecessary. However, one of the main challenges magnesium alloys faces in terms of an implant is their inferior strength compared to such permanent implant materials as stainless steel and tita
