Idén till det här examensarbetet föddes när vi tillsammans tillbringade en termin i London för snart tre år sedan. Vi bodde nära Hackney City Farm, en stadsbondgård i östra London. Ett stenkast från bullrande vägar och röda dubbeldäckare fanns får, kor, getter, åsnor, höns och grisar mitt i stan. Vi blev berörda och fascinerade av närheten mellan djur och människa i en urban miljö. I vårt examensInitially the idea for this thesis was born when we spent a semester together in London about three years ago. We lived close to Hackney City Farm, in the heart of eastern London. Within a stone’s throw from noisy roads and red double-deckers there were sheep, cows, goats, hens and pigs right in the middle of the city. We were fascinated and inspired by the closeness of animals and humans in a ver

Climate change is one of the most significant challenges that building sector is confronting. For example, Climate change and associated extreme events are posing a significant challenge for the building sector.

In the Church of Sweden, priests do not have a specific vow concerning their personal prayer life, which some other church traditions in the world do have.

This empirical study attempts to assess the use of French (and other languages) within a European institution to illustrate the following: the daily practical French used within a single directorate-general, the awareness at the directorate of how France is trying to increase the use of French especially during the French presidency 2022, and the attitude and use of French inside and outside the w

Varje år förlorar den Europeiska unionens medlemmar hundratals miljarder kronor i uteblivna mervärdesskatteintäkter. En stor del av dessa förluster beror på omfattande bedrägerier som utnyttjar de lagar och regler som gäller för unionsintern handel mel-lan EU:s medlemsstater. En särskild typ av sådana bedrägerier är Missing Trader Intra Community – fraud, MTIC-bedrägerier. Denna uppsats undersökerEvery year, the members of the European Union lose tens of billions of euros in VAT revenue. A large part of these losses are due to widespread fraud that exploits the laws and rules governing intra-EU trade between EU Member States. One such fraud is Missing Trader Intra Community (MTIC) fraud. This paper examines the causes of MTIC fraud and the legislative efforts in the EU and Sweden to counte

Kubernetes is a container orchestration platform growing ever more popular, and as the software industry shifts into the container cloud, security will become paramount. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs) systems cata- log and provide references to known vulnerabilities. The goal of this thesis is to systematically evaluate the security situation of Kubernetes through common mitigatio

Microfluidic systems allow for fast and precise manipulation of small volume samples in a highly controlled environment. In such a system, acoustic trapping is a powerful tool, enabling non-contact isolation of cells and microvesicles from complex media. In this technique, an ultrasonic standing wave is introduced in the microchannel. The standing wave exerts size-dependent acoustic forces on part

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to see what luxury brands gain from a limited-edition collaboration in terms of segment, positioning and target group and based on the identity prism, see what characteristics that are transferred from and to the brands in the collaboration. Design/methodology/approach: First a literature review is presented with relevant theories for the purpose of the paper

Den internationella investeringsrätten regleras i stort genom ett system av bilaterala investeringsavtal upprättat två stater emellan. Dessa skyddar internationella investeringar genom en rad olika substantiella rättigheter. Det utmärkande skyddet de erbjuder är dock rätten till skiljeförfarande. Genom skiljeklausuler i investeringsavtal har investerare möjlighet att stämma stater genom skiljeförfInternational investment law is regulated by a system of bilateral investment agreements.

The paper engages a provocative, multi-dimensional legal, moral and human rights issue that strikes at the heart of 21st century UK asylum law. Throughout the NATO Afghanistan military campaigns (headed by the International Security Assistance Force) in which the UK committed combat troops from 2001 to 2014, hundreds of local Afghan nationals were employed by the British Army as interpreters and t

Riparian buffer zones have become an established concept in the forestry industry, meant to preserve species richness, stabilize the shoreline, and prevent leakage of nutrients and sediments to forest streams and lakes. It is a common perception in the Swedish Forest Agency in Halland that the handling of buffer zones in the forestry industry is insufficient to protect the freshwater streams and l

Thesis Purpose: With the increasing popularity of social networks like YouTube, and the increasing accessibility of consumers to devices able to make and edit videos, video reviews are facing a remarkable growth. Hitherto, the research in eWOM has paid more attention to written reviews, leaving a notable gap of research in video eWOM. The purpose of this study was to improve the knowledge about vi

In a society where information is increasingly available through digital means, the performance of Swedish students is at a decline. The amount of students with access to their own computer and the internet is higher than any generation before them. Even though the amount of digital teaching tools increase rapidly many still lack the necessary quality to replace traditional teaching tools. An atte

The settlement of marine organisms on boat hulls – known as biofouling – is a major concern in boating and over the years more or less environmentally harmful substances have been used to prevent it. However, the concept of biocide-free, so called foul-release coatings (FRC) that change the surface properties of the boat hull has gained more attention recently. In the present literature study, I h

Image quality is in essence based on subjective experience, and the involvement of human subjects is therefore necessary in one way or the other in order to make reliable assessments of it. This topic is of interest for Axis Communications AB -- the market leader in surveillance cameras. In this thesis, the softcopy quality ruler method described in ISO 20462 is evaluated through a study of one s

Purpose: The aim of this study is to inquire into the congruency of store image perceptions, projected by Ikea and Ilva, and how Danish and Swedish consumers perceive the aforementioned stores’ images in their respective domestic market. Also, the aim sets out to evaluate the success of these stores’ images on consumers and on transference to host markets. Further, the aim is to discern specific s
