Transcranial alternating-current stimulation (tACS) for entraining alpha activity holds potential for influencing mental function, both in laboratory and clinical settings. While initial results of alpha entrainment are promising, questions remain regarding its translational potential-namely if tACS alpha entrainment is sufficiently robust to context and to what extent it can be upscaled to multi-

In this paper, we study total and differential observables of electro- and photoproduction of light ρ , ω and ϕ mesons as functions of the center-of-mass energy of the γp collision and momentum transfer squared |t|. The corresponding vector mesons wave functions have been computed in the framework of relativistic AdS/QCD holographic approach. A satisfactory description of all available data on gro

How can small and medium cities absorb the world population growth in urban areas? This master’s thesis investigates possibilities for increasing population density and built density in cities, avoiding urban sprawl and population concentration in large metropolises. For this urban design investigation, the city of Kalmar, Sweden was chosen as the project site. The focus on a less populated city a

I september 2022 avlider Mahsa Jina Amini efter hon blivit arresterad av den Islamiska republikens moralpolis. Detta är inledningen på landsomfattande protester med slagorden “Kvinna Liv Frihet” som väcker uppmärksamhet över hela världen. Kort därefter släpper den iranska artisten Shervin Hajipour låten Baraye där orsakerna till protesterna uttrycks. Sången får snabbt spridning och blir proteströr

Bakgrund: Andelen förlossningar som induceras har fördubblats mellan 2019 och 2020. En förklaring till att induktioner har ökat beror på att man i flera regioner ändrat rutinerna för igångsättning för att minska risken för intrauterin fosterdöd. Studier visar att kvinnor som blir igångsatta tenderar att känna mer oro och vara mindre nöjda med sin vård jämfört med kvinnor som kommer igång spontant

The question of borders in regional planning have gained increased interest in recent developments of human geography. In the four corners of the region Scania, there are four different sub-regional organisations that work towards intermunicipal cooperation and development centred on a core growth engine. But how do these sub-regions relate to and affect the borders that surround them? To answer t

Throughout the pursuit of environmental sustainability, the attention placed on governments’ responsibility to reduce environmental degradation has progressively decreased and rather, began focusing on the attitudes and behaviours of individuals. Overtime, this increasing attention placed on the individual highlighted the central role which citizens have in creating and pushing for a sustainable s

Biomedical application of nanoparticles is largely associated to their fate in biological media which, in fact, is related to their surface properties. Surface functionalitzation plays a key role in determining biodegradation, cytotoxicity and biodistribution through interactions which may be meditated by the macromolecules occurring in biological media. This project is focused on the effect of di

Digital technologies have significantly facilitated the creation and distribution of User Generated Content. Whereas the online environment offers promising opportunities for business and cultural development, it also carries important implications for EU copyright law. Whilst this topic has been explored in the literature, it is typically considered from the lens of rights holders, who often stru

The Nordic country of Sweden portrays itself as a leader in sustainable development and human rights advocacy. However, the expansion of what is portrayed as “green” mining activities in Sami territories creates cumulative pressure on traditional livelihoods like reindeer husbandry, which raises questions about the sustainability narrative. Previous research has focused on Swedish policy documents

The United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP) stands as the most prominent international human rights instrument that defines and protects the rights of indigenous peoples globally. While it represents a landmark achievement, it significantly lacks comprehensive provisions addressing the rights of indigenous women, particularly environmental rights. This study undersc

The construction sector is undergoing substantial growth and there are many challenges to address. One challenge is building defects, which affect the structural integrity and put the structure at risk. A common and intrusive building defect is moisture, which can slowly expand and lead to complicated defect detection. Moisture intrusion can cause many issues in the structure of the building and p

Denna uppsats undersöker hur mödrar som arbetstagare, omsorg och jämställdhet konstrueras i EU:s politik för balans mellan arbete och privatliv. Syftet är att bidra till en djupare förståelse för hur institutionella visioner om jämställdhet formas och vad de inkluderar respektive utesluter. Analysen fokuserar på två centrala policydokument: Arbetslivsbalansdirektiv från 2019 och Kommissionens initThis thesis explores how mothers as workers, care, and gender equality are constructed in EU work-life balance policy. The aim is to contribute to a deeper understanding of how institutional visions of equality are constructed and what they include or exclude. The analysis focuses on two central policy documents: the 2019 Work-Life Balance Directive and the 2017 Commission initiative on work-life

The purpose of this thesis is to study if software defined networks (SDN) can function as a second layer of defence in safety critical sensor networks. SDNs are controlled and topologically defined by a logically centralised control unit. The centralised control logic makes it possible to control the behaviour of the network, and react to network events. In this thesis we examine if and how SDNs c

The importance of well-being has gained wide-spread recognition within entrepreneurial research and at the same time entrepreneurial coach relationships have received more attention in academia. There is however, a lack of understanding on the influence of coaches on the well-being of entrepreneurs. This study seeks to contribute to academic literature by focusing on the subject of accelerator coa

Abstract In modern anti-money laundering operations, data analysis plays a vital role. One method of detecting fraudulent data is Benford’s law, which predicts the distribution of the first significant digits in logarithmically distributed data. Deviation from Benford’s law in data where it should be present might indicate manipulated data. We investigate the Chi2 and Kolmogorov-Smirnov tests’ pr

Syftet med denna uppsats är att öka förståelsen för Dutch Disease fenomenet genom att besvara frågeställningarna: (1) Vad orsakar ett potentiellt Dutch Disease syndrom? (2) Vilka modeller applicerar artikelförfattarna för att undersöka ett potentiellt Dutch Disease syndrom? Arbetet bedrevs i form av en litteraturstudie där nitton studier valdes och analyserades utifrån Dutch Disease orsak och resp
