When a ground surface is subjected to a load an increased level of stress will occur in the soil underneath. As soil material has a limited permeability, an increased stress will initially result in an excess pore water pressure. However, as time passes the water will flow and the pore water pressure will even out. The relation between the total stress, the excess pore water pressure and the effec
This thesis aims to provide a case study for a critical theory of mythopoetics, via analysis of four ‘Brexit narratives’: The Bad Boys of Brexit by Arron Banks, Unleashing Demons by Craig Oliver, All Out War by Tim Shipman and The Brexit Club by Owen Bennett. My objective is to demonstrate the prevalence of mythopoetics in political and historical discourse, via analysis of four competing politica
MicroRNAs are small single stranded RNA molecules containing approximately 22 nucleotides and these play an important regulatory role in gene expression. MicroRNAs are found to be involved in several diseases and knowledge about their sequences can be an important tool in the foundation of novel treatment methods against diseases. Today, these small RNA molecules are mainly analyzed with qPCR and
Packaging can be used to offer to consumers a complete brand experience. The emotional level enhanced during opening moment make consumers engage with the product and therefore, with the brand. Brands can firstly use printing to stand out at the point of sale and can use internal printing to enhance consumer experience at home. Internal printing needs to be analyzed through the lenses of three pil

Introduction: Born globals are increasingly prevalent and very successful in doing business globally, which is quite remarkable when keeping in mind they operate with limited human and financial resources and international business experience. They have to utilise capabilities in a unique way in order to internationalise rapidly and successfully. Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to gain insig
In Sweden the number of cars per person has increased since the mid-20th century. With negative impacts on both health and the environment, private ownership of vehicles represents one of the major challenges in urban transport. To move travelers from privately owned vehicles to public transport has shown to be beneficial in reducing carbon emissions. However, in order to create policies that attr
The purpose of this thesis is to construct a passive bistatic radar system using two USRP N200 software defined radios and two ordinary TV-antennas. Several auxiliary components were used in order to align and calibrate the devices including an octoclock CDA-2990, switch and signal generator. Several tests were made to verify that the sampling started simultaneously and that no significant phase s
Ett byggprojekt beskrivs ibland som ett skapande kaos vilket syftar på det faktum att ett byggprojekt är i ständig rörelse. Människorna som är inblandade i ett byggprojekt är ofta där under olika villkor, olika tidsperioder och med olika syften. Det avgörande för att byggprojektet ska fortskrida på ett effektivt sätt med god motivation hos de anställda är att det finns en tydlig ledare på plats. LA construction project is sometimes described as a creative chaos, which refers to the fact that a construction project is in constant motion. The people involved in a construction project are often there under different conditions, different periods of time and with different purposes. The decisive factor for the construction project to proceed efficiently with good motivation for employees is th
In imaging, obtaining high contrast is of great importance. When imaging through scattering media, optical filtering techniques are used to filter out multiple light scattering which causes loss of contrast. Imaging through scattering media is used in Bio-Medicine when looking through human skin; in characterization of spray systems in Combustion Engineering as well as in other applications where
Newly constructed building stocks have been decreasing in last decades; thus, renovation and retrofitting represent a large amount of opportunities to upgrade the building performance and energy efficiency of building assets in their life span, as well as to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. An overall assessment of a lighting retrofit project can support to judge the quality of a retrofit as good
Urban population growth leads to denser cities where buildings are being constructed closer to sources of vibration like motorways, railways and tramways. The risk of disturbing vibrations is thereby increasing which could affect residents and sensitive equipment, for instance equipment used in hospitals. In the Master’s thesis, the effect of structural design on traffic-induced building vibrations ha
Studiens syfte var att undersöka effekterna på resurser och lönsamhet när en mellanhand standardiserar en fundamental resurs. Studien grundade sig i en kvalitativ flerfallsstudie av abduktiv ansats. Primärdatan erhölls genom semi-strukturerade intervjuer med restauranger i Lund. Dataanlysen genfördes sedan med hjälp av första- och andranivås kodning. Undersökningen utgick från den resursbaserade t
Utsläpp av industriellt avloppsvatten till avloppsreningsverk kan medföra problem då det ofta innehåller förhöjda koncentrationer av toxiska ämnen jämfört med avloppsvatten från hushåll. Industriellt avloppsvatten innehåller även ofta kemiska ämnen som är specifika för produktionen i fråga. Det mottagande reningsverket är inte alltid utformat för att rena dessa ämnen, vilket gör att de riskerar atThe discharge of industrial wastewaters (WWs) to wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) can be problematic due to their sometimes elevated concentrations of toxic compounds compared to municipal wastewater. Also, industrial WWs often contain compounds that are unique to the specific production, and the receiving WWTP is not always designed to remove these compounds. Hence, there is a risk that these
