The significance of access to education has, like women’s role in peacebuilding, previously been examined in various studies. However, the relationship between these two has rarely been touched upon. Particularly the discipline of Sociology of Law has been observed to discuss the topics in separate academic discussions. Hence, findings in accordance with my study have revealed that there is no res
The implementation of the Single-Use Plastics Directive has gained significant attention due to the detrimental impacts of plastic pollution, leading to the transition from plastic straws to paper straws for Tetra Pak’s portion-size carton packages. However, the acceptance of paper straws could be hindered by negative mouthfeel perceptions, which customers find the difficulties to accurately descr
III-V semiconductor material based nanowires have been extensively studied and shown to be a very exciting building block for future electronics. Material systems such as GaSb show a lot of promise in optoelectric and thermoelectric generation applications because of its high electron mobility and small bandgap. Although there is a lot of research about III-V nanowires, a gap in understanding anti
Credit activity is essential for financial institutions, acting as the primary means banks deploy resources and generate revenue. As a key indicator of financial distress, corporate default has severe repercussions on investors, creditors, regulators, and policymakers. Credit risk embodies the uncertainty banks confront prior to lending, accounting for the partial or complete non-recovery of loan
Wildfires are increasing around the world and unlike building evacuations, the wildland urban interface (WUI) evacuations consider vehicle movement alongside the behaviour of wildfires. Tourists, as a diverse population, further complicate WUI evacuations due to factors such as language barriers, unfamiliarity with the area, varying levels of risk awareness, and the lack of access to vehicles. Nev
The European Union (EU) aims to increase the overall carbon sink through the 2030 climate and energy policy framework, which includes the newly reviewed instrument and regulation of Land use, land use change and forestry (LULUCF). The regulation is considered an important component in the EU climate mitigation strategy which aims to manage and track the greenhouse gas emissions and removals in sec
In recent years, social marketing, particularly LGBTQ+ advocacy, has become increasingly prevalent in many brands' communication techniques, gaining significant attention. However, few attempts have been made to study its practical and strategic aspects and develop a framework for successful social marketing endeavors that companies can implement with minimal risk of failure. This study aims t
Green ammonia, produced from renewable hydrogen, is emerging as an important energy carrier and decarbonized fertilizer alternative. However, its production is highly energy-intensive, making process efficiency critical to its commercial viability. This study investigates how targeted heat integration can enhance the energy and cost efficiency of green ammonia production based on a 200 MW PEM elec
Emerging technologies have increased the need for cybersecurity protection in web-based systems. This is especially true for drone systems, where any attack would threaten critical missions trying to save lives. In this study, the Remote Mission Control platform developed by Remote Aero is examined, the goal is identifying cybersecurity risks and proposing improvements to strengthen the system
Purpose: The purpose of this study is to analyze the sentiment towards masstige collaborations on social media, and to see if contextual factors, such as duration of the collaboration or the sentiment towards the partnering brands prior to the collaboration, are related to a change in said sentiment. Theoretical Perspective: This study draws on existing literature on the masstige topic to define

This bachelor's thesis explores how users engage with political content on TikTok concerning monetized filters to the benefit of Palestine. It also investigates the role TikTok may play in facilitating political mobilization and advocacy, as well as how users leverage the platform to organize, collaborate, and amplify their voices around political issues. The two main methods of research are n
The scramjet engine is an air-breathing engine that can be used to travel at supersonic speeds. Research is being done into how these engines can be used as reusable launch vehicles for space travel, missile propulsion, and many hope one day scramjets can be used for commercial flight. Scramjets are highly beneficial in the sense that hydrogen is the primary fuel and that manufacturing is simple c
Purpose: This thesis aims to investigate how customers’ pre-existing brand loyalty influences their perceptions of four characteristics – Perceived Usefulness (PU), Perceived Ease of Use (PEoU), Perceived Trustworthiness (PT), and Perceived Human-likeness (PH) – of AI chatbots used in customer service. In turn, we strive to examine how those perceptions affect overall customer satisfaction towards
Bathymetry, the measurement of underwater terrain, is crucial for understanding lake storage volumes, water resource availability, and ecological conditions. While there are an estimated 117 million lakes worldwide, bathymetric data remains limited for most of them. Traditional methods for measuring bathymetry requires fieldwork which is costly and time-consuming. For this reason, new less fieldwo
