This study is an attempt to take advantage of a cerebellar model to control a biomimetic arm. Aware that a variety of cerebellar models with different levels of details has been developed, we focused on a high-level model called MOSAIC. This model is thought to be able to describe the cerebellar functionality without getting into the details of the neural circuitry. To understand where this model
Smallholder farmers face a number of challenges in spite of the crucial role they play in ensuring food security. An appreciation of the far-reaching consequences these challenges have on food security will inform the formulation of policies aimed at addressing the problem of food insecurity. In Ghana, research on food (in) security issues has mostly focused on the Northern part of the country par
Popular science summary The Role of Fungal Communities in the Lodgepole pine´s invasion Summary Belowground microbial interactions have an important effect on the performance of plant populations and the success of plant invasions. The introduced Lodgepole pine, for instance, can be presented with novel fungal mutualists in the introduced areas in comparison with their native ranges. These nove
The thesis explores the exegetical techniques of the Rabbis and the Fathers of the Church. The thesis focuses on a particular method, namely the usage of emotions by the Rabbis and the Fathers and their attempt to explain the Biblical text of Genesis 22. The aim is to understand the highly diverse ‘extra-biblical’ developments, which can help us glimpse into the post-biblical, Rabbinic and Patris
The main purpose of this research is to contribute to sustainable waste management in remote areas of the European Union (EU) by specifically employing the concept of ‘waste hierarchy’ as a mean to reach this goal. The last three decades see the EU waste management approach evolve from pollution control (disposal/end-of-pipe) toward more strategic approach focusing on waste prevention and recyclin
This study examines the factors influencing the perceptions and attitudes of Poles towards Ukrainian workers in the Polish labor market, incorporating the extension of Allport (1956)’s contact theory by Pettigrew and Tropp (2006). Given the economic relationship between Ukraine and Poland, the influx of Ukrainian immigrants, and the absence of a comprehensive immigration policy, understanding thes
This thesis explores the ways in which architectural sites establish and maintain Dubai’s claim to global city status. In a globalized world, localities must succeed in translocal networks in order to ensure their survival and prosperity, and global recognition of local uniqueness is thus integral to the establishment of global cities. Architecture plays an essential role in producing locality in
This research paper examines the European Union's merger control regime and its efficacy in addressing the killer acquisitions by big tech firms in the fast-evolving digital sphere. It investigates the legal framework, competition policy objectives, and more importantly the impact of the digital sector on EU competition policy. Furthermore, it critically analyses the killer acquisitions by
Med grund i EU:s konstitutionella utrikesrätt (EU External Relations Law) utforskar den här uppsatsen EU:s traktatmakande på luftfartsområdet. Sambandet mellan doktrinen om implicit befogenhet och traktatmakandesystemet på luftfartsområdet har knappast studerats. Dessa båda fenomen har beskrivits i EU External Relations Law respektive i folkrätten på flygfartsområdet. Den här uppsatsen överbryggarThis thesis explores the aviation treaty-making of the EU through the lens of EU External Relations Law. The relationship between the doctrine of implied competence and the treaty-making system in aviation has scarcely been studied. Both phenomena have been described in EU External Relations Law and international public aviation law, respectively; this thesis bridges and explores the gap between t
In this thesis I will study and analyze official policy documents from the Swedish Sports Confederation(RF). I will be performing a Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) on these documents from a gender theory perspective, also influenced by queer theory. Sports remain one of the most gendered institutions in society. It is the purpose of this study to ascertain the way RF treats gender in its officia
Uppsatsen syftar till att klargöra rättsläget avseende tystnadsplikt och huruvida lojalitetsplikt och kritikträtt samspelar, samt hur sekretessbestämmelser inverkar i rättsfrågan. Med utgångspunkt i det arbetsrättsliga förhållandet mellan arbetsgivare och arbetstagare undersöks hur lojalitets- och tystnadsplikt samt kritikrätt påverkar arbetstagarens handlingsutrymme, vilket sätts i relation till The thesis aims to clarify the legal framework regarding confidentiality and whether the duty of loyalty and the right to criticise interact, as well as how secrecy provisions affect the legal issue. Based on the employment relationship between employer and employee, the study examines how the duty of loyalty and confidentiality, as well as the right to criticise, affect the employee’s scope of ac
This comparative study, which includes narrative, rhetoric, and reception analyses of two films depicting the current war in Ukraine—Bucha and 20 Days in Mariupol—explores the differences in how these films are received by various parties involved in the conflict, specifically Ukraine and russia, as well as by other countries affected by the war. The paper also features a chapter on the russian pr
Even though the first coronavirus pandemic was registered in 1965, SARS-CoV-2 was better acknowledged when it caused the worldwide pandemic in 2019 in which millions of individuals lost their lives. Due to its facile way of spreading from one individual to another, the number of infected cases has gone up to more than 750 million to this day. DENV is a very dangerous virus due to its asymptomatic
In disaster risk management, participatory mapping (PM) closes spatial data gaps in communities by integrating local risk knowledge. The thesis examined the potential and limitations of the Sketch Map Tool (SMT) as a PM tool for community-based disaster risk reduction (DRR) through an International Red Cross Red Crescent Movement case study. The research evaluated the SMT's applicability for c
Recent years have seen an increase in reports on rising wildfire occurrences in countries of the Middle East. Wildfires are integral parts of terrestrial ecosystems and as such prone to the recent, large-scale anthropogenic changes of global ecosystem dynamics. However, the systematic analysis of patterns of wildfire occurrences – fire regimes – is concentrated on a few well studied regions and re
The meaning of human rights locally can vary depending on a city's context. Therefore, the approaches of working with human rights locally can differ. Swedish municipalities tend to lack a structure of approaching human rights. However, the European Union Agency for Fundamental Rights (FRA) is about to publish a framework for how European human rights cities can approach human rights. This t
This thesis investigated the regulation of patulin production in Penicillium expansum in relation to fungal global regulators as well as the cluster-specific binuclear zinc transcription factor (BZTF) patL in silico. It also explored the state of BZTF research in filamentous ascomycetes fungi, and questioned if results in Saccharomyces cerevisiae can be freely translated to other taxonomic groups.
