The purpose of this bachelor thesis is to demonstrate how the government agency constituted by the Royal Armoury, Skokloster Castle and The Hallwyl Museum (further on shortened as LSH) works with digitization of their collections. The aim is also to present which opportunities and problems this process may bring. A presentation of the digitization process in the “centralmuseerna” (museums that ar
This Master Thesis analyzes how beneficial parental involvement is for third level education of an individual. Effects derived from parental behavior are measured based on new data on a larger scale compared to previous research, and by exploiting so far unused involvement variables. For the measurement a logit regression is applied to European Value Study data, for a selection of thirteen countri
I denna uppsats redogör och analyserar vi för den nya generationens mer omfattande frihandelsavtal och dess handelsfrämjande åtgärder. Vi har med inspiration från de pågående förhandlingarna om det transatlantiska frihandels- och investeringsavtalet (TTIP) valt att studera vilka handelseffekter frihandelsavtal kan resultera i. I uppsatsen har vi valt att undersöka om det frihandelsavtal som slöts
This research shows the impact of credit rating change (thereafter CRC) announcements on the combined entities following mergers and acquisitions. In looking at the effect of CRC announcements on share prices, we measure the level of influence that a credit upgrade or downgrade has on the equity value of firms. Existing literature disputes the applicability of share price as a measure of value cre
Quantum entanglement between electrons in nanostructures is a key concept of quantum information still waiting to be experimentally demonstrated. In this master's thesis we present and analyze the full counting statistics of the charge transfer of a sextuple quantum dot system which works as both entangler and detector of spatially separated electrons. Under certain resonance conditions the sy

With the diminishing reserves of oil and the growing public concern for environmental issues, the end of gasoline powered vehicles is getting closer each year. To prevent this from causing the personal and comfortable way of transportation mankind has gotten used to, to die with them, an alternative without the downsides of the gasoline engine must be developed. The environmentally friendly electr
In 1996 the European Union adopted the Seveso II Directive. The Directive stated actions to be taken in the process industry in order to prevent and limit the impact of serious chemical accidents. In the Directive it is clearly stated that domino effects shall be considered, but the level of detail required is not specified. Due to that fact and the high degree of complexity linked to domino e
Reduction of the cleaning time is an important issue for companies using large tanks. A common solution is a stationary pipe going into the tank with a cleaning nozzle mounted on the end. Today the spray pattern of most cleaning systems is fixed. It would be beneficial to adjust the cleaning cycles so that the most soiled places of the tank get extra attention without increasing the total cleaning
Climate change is exponentially becoming one of the most pressing issues of our time. While it is an issue that plaques the international community it is an issue that needs to be addressed on all levels. Local government has been highlighted as the level closest to the people and is uniquely positioned to instigate a range of activities that directly address climate change and sustainability. Thi
Happiness is a relatively new discipline within economics. Traditionally, economists have not paid too much attention to it since they considered that both indicators and theoretical assumptions in which this discipline was based were not neither reliable nor useful for policy recommendations. However, especially in the last decade, there has been extensive research which, if not proved, at least
In this study I have examined which conditions that play a role in the conservation of natural environment. The results in this paper have been analysed from interviews that I have conducted with conservation officers working with conservation efforts in local municipality's in southwest Skåne, Sweden. In the process, I have come to the conclusion that the nature conservation the conservation
Innovation is a dynamic process that has been extensively studied by researchers across different fields: a variety of frameworks and mental models have been produced as a result of efforts to measure and manage innovations. However, despite its obvious importance to the success of an innovation process, the “culture” of innovation remains an uninvestigated “black box”. Our thesis examines the com
The current research addressed the daily reality of Roma women from multiple perspectives. The paper gradually revealed the sociological challenges that the individuals must face and the way the state undertook the responsibility to intervene by means of law and policies in relation to the human rights system. The findings were based on relevant legal and policy documents, multidisciplinary litera
Returning refugees are an important aspect of economic reconstruction-, and the reconciliation process after the civil war. For this reason, extensive research has been done on the relationship between return migration and economic performance. From those studies, some identify a positive relationship while others find a negative relationship between returned migrants and their economic performanc
