When the Vikings settled the British Isles between the 8th and 11th centuries, they left behind numerous stone monuments in their wake. These monuments, many of which are stone crosses, utilize a combination of Christian and pagan imagery, and are found heavily in Christian contexts. This thesis sought to analyze this imagery and their contexts in order to determine how they reflected the colonial

Mesh networks are highly relevant and interesting today considering all the connected devices that exists. These devices often aim to have low power consumption to be able to be powered by smaller power sources such as solar cells or batteries. The hardware used by mesh networks often has the same purpose, to minimize power consumption. The purpose of this thesis is to provide an increased underst
The Yaw Power Backup System (YPBS) is a safety system that needs to be incorporated in the Wind Power Plant (WPP) in order to provide emergency power during a power outage. The YPBS enables the Wind Turbine Generator (WTG) to perform a yawing operation in extreme weather conditions. The yawing operation ensures the rotor is aligned with incoming wind, minimizing the acting forces on the blades and

Hur mycket som än skrivs om de svenska häxprocesserna verkar vi aldrig tröttna på att höra om dem, försöka förstå dem eller förfasas över dem. Denna uppsats behandlar en av de få, relativt outforskade, delarna i de svenska häxprocessernas historia: de processer som utspelade sig på Åland mellan åren 1666–1668. Processerna har till viss del fallit mellan forskningens stolar, då Åland inte längre tiNo matter how much is written about the Swedish witch trials we never seem to get tired of hearing of them, trying to understand them and be horrified by them. This essay explores one of few, relatively unknown parts of the Swedish witch trials: the trials that took place on the Åland Islands between the years 1666-1668. Not as much attention has been paid to these trials, probably because the Åla
Uppsatsen behandlar ämnet slöjförbud i Sverige. Syftet är att undersöka hur en svensk partipolitiskt obunden organisation, som arbetar med hedersrelaterat våld och förtryck, konstruerar deras ståndpunkter om slöjförbudet samt hur de tillförskriver attribut till slöjbärande kvinnor som kan bli påverkade av slöjförbud. Materialet består av en skrift från den slöjkritiska organisationen ”Glöm aldrig The subject in this thesis is ban of veils in Sweden. The aim of this thesis is to examine how a Swedish non-party political organization, that works with honor related violence and oppression, constructs their positions about a ban of the veil, and further how they prescribe attributes to veiled women who can be affected by the ban. The analyzed material is a publication from the Swedish veil-cri
Background In traditional retailing, where the challenge lies in providing goods in a store with limited space while minimizing tied up capital and obsolescence, good inventory management is often an important competitive advantage. However, the emergence of the online channel changes some of the challenges, and the associated requirements on inventory management. These dierences are studied in th
Problematik med global fattigdom och social orättvisa till följdeffekt av obalans i nuvarande rättsystem. Inom svensk aktiebolagsrätt råder en konflikt mellan aktieägares ekonomiska vinstmaximeringsintresse och människors skydd för mänskliga rättigheter i lågprisländer. Utnyttjande av slav- och barnarbete blir en oönskad konsekvens av företags jakt på låga priser och höga vinster. Uppsatsen identiGlobal poverty and social injustice is a consequence of imbalance in the current legal system. Within Swedish company law there is a conflict between the interest of the shareholders' economic profit and human rights protection in low-cost countries, this thesis is about Corporate Social Responsibility.

1. Mossy fibre evoked activity in the cerebellar cortex elicited by peripheral electrical stimulation was studied in chloralose anesthetized cats. The distribution of intracortical field potentials in the C3 and D zones was mapped in order to determine if there is a spread of synaptic activity outside the mossy fibre termination area. This area was identified by the presence of short latency synap

For over a century, scholars have debated the merits of two competing theories for the origins of money. The commodity theory of money has traditionally held that money developed as a medium of exchange in order to increase the economic efficiency of barter economies. Alternatively, chartalist explanations have given causal primacy to the role of state taxation in standardizing money as a unit of
This thesis deals with ultrafast dynamics of electronic processes in rare gas atoms. The processes we explore include photoemission, where we time the emission of electrons moving away from the atomic core following ionization by a photon; and auto-ionization, where the atom spontaneously releases an electron wave-packet following photo-excitation. These processes occur on an attosecond and femtos
