Till följd av hur samhället länge präglats av androcentrism, där kvinnan är perifer till den centrala mannen, har forskning identifierat ett problem i hur läran om brott otillräckligt uppmärksammat kvinnor, kvinnlig brottslighet och kvinnlig rehabilitering. Ny forskning har satt kvinnan i fokus vid utvecklingen av könsspecifika insatser inom rehabilitering på fängelser runtom i världen, forskning

I ett nedlagt kalkbrott i Skultorp, Västergötland, finns Lokaformationen, som är ett tunt kalkstenslager från sen-ordovicisk tid. Dess avsättning är samtida med de klimatförändringar och massutdöende som ägde rum under hirnantetagen. I den nedersta delen av mellersta Lokaformationen förekommer det mineralkorn vars ursprung väcker intresse. Syftet med detta arbete är att utförligt beskriva och kara

Our world is facing major challenges and the built environment plays a major role in both adapting to, and, challenging the current situation. As urbanization advances and densification takes place, more people reside in cities with an estimated 68% of the world’s population expected to live in urban areas by 2050. Urban areas confront mounting challenges due to population growth, resource constra

This study aimed to gain a deeper understanding of how counselors create and maintain good professional relationships with patients who have psychotic disorders, and how they manage their emotions within these relationships. Qualitative interviews were conducted with six counselors working in outpatient clinics in Region Skåne. The empirical data were analyzed using Hochschild and Bolton's the

Falling is one of the most common accidents for older adults over the age of 65, with more than 70 000 cases yearly in Sweden. Today there is not a technical solution which can prevent such accidents. The development of a fall prevention device could therefore be revolutionary. A substantial database is required to develop a fall prevention device that can recognise different surroundings and give

The law states that a DH company should present their customers with a comparison of relevant key figures to customers with similar user profiles. LEAB communicates pricing changes, a cost estimation for the coming year and newly calculated

This master's thesis presents a method for approximating the folding behavior of paperboard using macroscopic data. Synthetic data is generated by conducting finite element analysis on paperboard modeled using continuum elements and an advanced constitutive law formulated within a thermodynamic framework. The paperboard model undergoes creasing followed by various folding sequences, enabling t

Durable and robust product development is crucial for fulfilling customer expectations and ensuring satisfaction. In this context, thorough testing plays an essential role in identifying and addressing potential defects before products reach the final customer. IKEA, with its worldwide presence, aims to enhance its understanding of humidity's impact on kitchen fronts, one of the main product a

Vanlig materia består huvudsakligen av protoner, neutroner och elektroner. Genom att kollidera partiklar med varandra vid höga energier kan man även skapa antiprotoner, antineutroner och positroner. Dessa så kallade antipartiklar har samma egenskaper som sina vanliga motsvarigheter fast med motsatt elektrisk laddning. Eftersom universum behandlar partiklar och antipartiklar på ett liknande sätt kaThis work is aimed at presenting a design for the proposed HIBEAM beamline which seeks to perform neutron oscillation measurements at the European Spallation Source (ESS). The design is informed by beamline simulations performed with PHITS 3.33 and detector simulations performed with both PHITS and Geant4 11.2. The shielding, consisting of 45 cm of steel and 85 cm of heavy concrete at its thickest

Lignocellulose is an important renewable feedstock for the sustainable production of bioethanol and other chemicals. Xylose is the second most abundant sugar in lignocellulose. However, xylose cannot be utilized by many industrially used microorganisms like S. cerevisiae. Therefore, large efforts have been made to express heterologous pathways for xylose utilization in S. cerevisiae and increase e

In this work we study some potential light-harvesting iron complexes. Transient Absorption Spectra (TA ) has been used to determine the lifetime of the different excited states. The issue with this technique is that it is difficult to define the exact contribution of each excited state to the Transient Absorption Spectra. The aim of this work is to use DFT methods to calculate the ground and excit

Purpose: The purpose of this thesis is to investigate how socio-political attitudes, particularly trust in governmental institutions and attitudes towards the world’s future, influence consumer responses to Brand Activism in Germany and Austria. As public trust in government declines and expectations for corporate societal engagement rise at the same time, this research aims to examine the resulti

The aim of this thesis is to explore the importance of sustainable urban mobility in the context of the housing affordability crisis. Housing affordability crisis is a concern across the globe. Finding strategies and solutions to mitigate the housing affordability crisis is in the interest of the whole society. While the connection between affordable housing and the housing costs is a well- unders

Problem description: With the rising trend of Swedish investors favoring index funds over actively managed funds, there is a need to evaluate whether this shift is justified. \\[1.75ex] Purpose: the purpose of this thesis is to assess the performance of actively managed Swedish equity funds relative to SEB Sverige Indexnära, an index fund that tracks the OMXSPI, to determine if the growing prefer

Luftföroreningar är ett välkänt globalt miljö- och hälsoproblem med över fyra miljoner dödsfall som följd varje år. Ursprunget till luftföroreningar varierar, men vägtrafikens utsläpp är en särskilt viktig källa för många ämnen. En ökad förståelse av orsakerna bakom luftföroreningar, och i vilken mån trafiken påverkar halterna, är en viktig del i att kunna implementera effektiva åtgärder för en bäAir pollution is a major environmental and health problem globally, with traffic emissions being a significant source of many pollutants. The aim of this study is to investigate whether the levels of nitrogen dioxide (NO2), ground-level ozone (O3) and coarse particles (PM10) in air changed during the covid-19 pandemic in Sweden, and whether the change varied between urban and rural areas and depen

The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in marketing has garnered significant attention due to its potential to revolutionize content creation and enhance advertising strategies. Despite the enthusiasm surrounding AI tools, concerns persist regarding their impact on brand authenticity and consumer perceptions. The present study aims to deepen the understanding of the influence of AI-genera

Climate change risks are escalating, especially in vulnerable coastal areas. Extreme weather events and rising sea levels emphasize the urgency for comprehensive discussions on how coastal areas can be adapted to climate change, both presently and in the future. The aim of this study is to increase understanding of how Swedish municipalities work with nature-based solutions to reduce the risk of c

Secondary metabolites produced from organisms are compounds that are not directly connected to the growth of organisms but that serve many important purposes for them in nature. Terpenes and terpenoids form a section of the secondary metabolites, produced from terpene synthase (TPS) enzymes. Fungal species are highly dependent on secondary metabolites and especially the terpenoid compounds for num
