It is a challenge to make ice cream without any dairy ingredients, since the components in dairy contribute to the unique flavour and structure of the ice cream. The aim with this project was to develop an ice cream mix containing only plant-based ingredients. The source of the main ingredient, the plant-base, was chosen by the company of which this project was requested by. The aim was to develop
Germany’s Energy Concept aims to reduce the building sector’s primary energy demand by 80% compared to 2008 levels, of which 20% are to be achieved by 2020. This requires significant investment in integrated renewables and thermal. Public funds cannot finance such transition alone. Therefore, it is crucial to not only understand current investment levels and potential investment gaps, but also to
This text is a qualitative study based on interviews with gender non normative co-parents who have experiences with the Danish healthcare system in the process of becoming a parent. The study explores how experiences with the healthcare system can be understood as a part of their subjectivation. Through the lens of queer feminism, represented by Judith Butler, it thus critically investigates how s
The Swedish Sea Cadet Corps (Sjövärnskåren / SVK) is a unique voluntary organisation with potential to greatly contribute to the Swedish society in times of crisis. The unique feature of SVK being the only voluntary organisation in Sweden that operates in the maritime domain, does not come without problems. I have in this study made clear to the reader where the problem lies and why there are prob
Swedish cities are under constant development, and this also applies to the city of Lund. To maintain its rich cultural heritage, modernization is conducted in harmony with preservation of the city. The historical structure of the city, with narrow cobblestone streets causes some difficulties in terms of accessibility for the traffic. As the transports to the center of Lund constitutes a strain on
Min utgångspunkt har varit de senaste årens trendbrott i boendepreferenser, där storstäderna inte växer i samma takt som tidigare. Allt fler söker sig till platser med stort utbud av småhus, närhet till natur, goda förbindelser till arbete och rimligare kvadratmeterpriser. Till följd av detta har flera mindre kommuner och orter fått en skjuts i befolkningstillväxt. En av dessa kommuner är min egOver the last years the bigger cities in Sweden haven’t grown at the same speed as before. There has been a rising trend of people choosing to live outside of the big cities as they tend to look for areas with proximity to nature, large selection of small houses, good connections to work and more reasonable square meter prices. As a result, several smaller municipalities and towns have received a
In the last century, agricultural intensification has led to loss of permanent pastures in the landscape which has been correlated with a loss in biodiversity. Specifically, small specialist species are more negatively affected. Often because they have a higher demand on suitable complementary habitats, larger home-range requirements of a high quality. Small species also have a lower mobility and
Geographical Indications (GIs) are collective property rights, which identify a good as originating from a specific geographical region. If the producers of GI products can signal to the consumers the specific qualities their products possess, qualities that are attributable to the land, then – due to the products ties to their region of production – GI products are considered to have potentials t
Småvatten är trots sin ringa storlek ekologiskt betydelsefulla och fungerar som habitat för många arter. För groddjur spelar de en avgörande roll för fortplantningen eftersom småvatten används som lekmiljö. Populationer av groddjur minskar idag över hela världen och två av de största hoten mot groddjur är habitatförlust och habitatfragmentering. I Sverige har många småvatten försvunnit som en effeDespite their size, small ponds are ecologically important and act as a habitat for many species. For amphibians they play a significant role for reproduction given that ponds are used as breeding sites. At present amphibian populations are decreasing worldwide and two of the biggest threats they face are habitat destruction and habitat fragmentation. In Sweden many small ponds have disappeared ov
This present study is a qualitative examination of government policy regarding Danish, unemployed and uneducated youths. The empirical basis for the study consists of fieldwork, in the form of participant observation and qualitative interviews. The physical field of study consisted of the municipality of Uddannelsesby. Within the study informants, such as the aforementioned youths, but also munici
Social Work Education today places great importance to convey values such as respect in the relation between social worker and client, and to embrace a user perspective in the professional practice. Yet, many clients find themselves mistreated and ignored and experience social service work as arbitrary and inaccessible. The purpose of this study is to examine what takes place in the encounter betw
With the Lisbon Treaty in place, the EU has the legal basis to accede to the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR). The aim of the accession is to strengthen the protection of human rights in Europe, and give European citizens the same protection vis-à-vis acts of the Union as they presently enjoy from member states. EU’s accession to the ECHR is welcomed, but as great as it is in theory as c
Introduction: A subgroup of severe Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) patients, known as ultra-severe (us-TBI), is most commonly defined as a post-resuscitation Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) of 3–5. There is uncertainty on whether these critically injured patients can benefit from neurosurgical intervention. Research question: The available evidence regarding the decision-making and outcome following managem
Molecular signatures to guide decisions for adjuvant chemotherapy are recommended in early ER-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer. The objective of this study was to assess what impact gene-expression-based risk testing has had following its recommendation by Swedish national guidelines. Postmenopausal women with ER-positive, HER2-negative and node negative breast cancer at intermediate clinical
This paper explores the relation between strategic climate communication and the organization of common affects in the constitution of the affective atmospheres of vulnerable urban places. As such, it investigates how political and industrial actors’ strategic framings of the climate crisis imply not merely a preferential understanding of such crisis, but also its preferential affective experience
Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common cancer globally. In Jordan, it is the number one cancer among men and the second most common cancer among women, accounting for 15% and 9.4% respectively of all male and female diagnosed cancers. This study aimed to evaluate the knowledge and perceptions about colorectal cancer risk factors, signs and symptoms in Jordan and to provide us
Autoignition in SI engines is an abnormal combustion mode and may lead to engine knock in SI engines. Knock may cause damage and it is a source of noise in engines. It limits the compression ratio of the engine and a low compression ratio means low fuel conversion efficiency of the engine. In this paper a multi zone model based on an existing two zone model Hajireza et al., [1 and 12] and Stenlaas
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: The optimal position for pH electrode placement in the diagnosis of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is unknown. The aim of this study was to evaluate the discriminatory power of targeted pH recording immediately above the squamocolumnar junction (SCJ) and to compare the results with those obtained by simultaneous recording at the conventional level for pH monitoring.
