The recent tightening of the Danish Aliens Act in 2019 has brought about an emphasized notion of temporality to temporary residence permits for refugees in Denmark. Temporality, in the eyes of the Danish government, is a sign to refugees, that their stay in Denmark should only be considered temporary, and that they should one day return to their countries of origin. But for refugees who have no no

As a food processing lines manufacturer with diverse product complexity, an understanding of fluid dynamics in a pipe system corresponding to the rheological properties and flow behavior is substantial. This will be beneficial to design suitable equipment and prevent processing-related issues, i.e. lowering filling performance, over-dimensioning pumps, excess energy consumption, etc. Therefore, th

Problem/Bakgrund Uppsatsens författare har iakttagit ett beteende där vissa användare av den sociala plattformen Instagram frekvent delar med sig av träningsrelaterade inlägg vilka rent av hos vissa utgör en dominerande del av alla deras inlägg. Är det enbart ett genuint intresse av träning som motiverar beteendet eller finns det andra medvetna eller undermedvetna skäl till att detta görs som med

Ever since the formation of the modern global foreign exchange market in the early 1970s, scholars have sought to develop models that can explain movements in foreign exchange rates. Arguably one of the most popular approaches to exchange rate modelling is the monetary approach, where movements in the exchange rate are modelled through changes in macroeconomic variables affecting the relative mone

The purpose of the present study is to investigate whether there is any relationship between job satisfaction and the view of the organization's rules for social workers in Sweden. By using Michel Oakeshott's theory of nomocracy and telocracy an online survey was conducted with 87 social workers working in adult social service. The study uses correlational analysis to measure the relations

The purpose of this study was how healthcare counselors view their right to professional certification. In order to accomplish this purpose, we chose a qualitative method consisting of nine semi-structured interviews. Each interview was held over the phone. Eight of the participants were currently working in the healthcare system while one was working as a school counselor. During the process of a

Antalet elever med problematisk frånvaro i grundskolan, så kallade hemmasittare, har under senaste decenniet ökat markant. Den här uppsatsen tar upp vilka orsakerna till frånvaron kan vara och hur skolorna i min hemkommun hanterar denna fråga. Syftet är att se om skolans åtgärder korresponderar mot elevernas behov samt att identifiera åtgärder som har positiv effekt. Uppsatsen bygger på intervjuer

Thesis purpose: This research investigates the effect of six specific consumers’ characteristics, i.e. fashion leadership, shopping enjoyment, instrumental and terminal materialism, green selfidentity, and social influence susceptibility, on consumers’ attitude towards a product-service system (a use-PSS) in the form of second-hand clothing rental. The relationship between attitude and consumers’

The purpose of this thesis is to examine if there is a cost, in terms of lower risk-adjusted returns, associated with using ESG factors in the portfolio creation process. The ability of using an ESG Smart Beta strategy, to outperform a passive cap-weighted index and a regular Smart Beta strategy in terms of risk-adjusted returns, was examined. By adopting a Smart Beta methodology, seven different

Over 150 local communities in California have implemented plastic product bans as a way to decrease stress on landfills, reduce non-recyclable materials, and manage litter. Plastic product bans such as plastic bags, polystyrene, or single-use plastics, are used to address both local (e.g. litter reduction or community aesthetics), and global (e.g. microplastic pollution or wildlife entanglement) p

There have been many different studies made about social workers and their work environment, most of these studies have had the same result. The result has been that social workers have a high workload and the case count is also high which often leads to mental stress. The purpose of our study was to investigate which factors social workers believed impact their psychosocial work environment. We w

Transitioning to a circular economy requires designing products that are meant to remain within and cycle through economic systems. While circular product design principles have been applied across industries, the medical industry presents unique challenges with its complex regulatory requirements and the high-risk nature of innovating with medical products. This thesis aims to contribute to the i

This thesis is centered on how objectives substantiated by legal procedures unfold in social practice. More precisely, the study is set to explore how the objective of environmental consideration impacts the Swedish Armed Forces and its ability to carry out the organization's main task, that is, the protection of Sweden, its interests and the right for the Swedish people to live as chosen. Cri

Aesthetic medicine is a unique medical arena with great economic benefits, but it is also full of controversy. Whether the doctors in the field could enjoy the same degree of autonomy as in the therapeutic medical field, and retain the self- regulating management of the medical profession, has always been the focus of debate. Although various scholars have proposed arguments on this issue from the

With the transition towards an electrified vehicle fleet, lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) have come into focus for different stakeholders due to their high costs, resource, and energy demands for production as well as connected environmental concerns and supply risks. Circular economy (CE) strategies to slow and close resource loops and circular business models (CBMs) are discussed as solutions to th

Det byggs cirka 10 000 småhus i Sverige varje år och en stor majoritet av dem byggs i trä men det blir även allt vanligare att större byggnader byggs i trä då detta byggnadsmaterial lyfts fram som ett miljövänligare alternativ till stål och betong. I småhusen används prefabricerade takstolar i trä i kombination med råspont i takkonstruktionen, dels för att fördela de vertikala lasterna men även föEach year, approximately 10 000 single-family houses are built in Sweden, a majority of which are timber-framed. Even larger buildings are more commonly being designed with timber structural systems as wood is considered having a lesser impact on the environment compared to steel and concrete. In most single-family houses, prefabricated timber roof trusses are used in combination with tongue-and-g

It is clear from evidence such as rotational curves and cosmic microwave background measurements that dark matter exists. The light dark matter experiment (LDMX) will search for dark matter in the sub-GeV range. It will do this using missing-momentum measurements of electrons interacting with a Tungsten target. The electron will recoil and be measured in the electromagnetic calorimeter (ECal) of t

In this thesis we aim to investigate if it is possible to detect events in football video using deep learning methods. The performance of a few different models using video input of varying frame rates is evaluated to find the most promising approach. We also evaluate if a proprietary dataset consisting of estimated player positions and movement can be used to detect events as it would be cheaper
