The ongoing human impact in form of deforestation, urbanization and intense agriculture is affecting the natural hydrology and our freshwater lakes negatively. Both eutrophication and brownification has seen to increase with the ongoing environmental change which can potentially have large impact on our freshwater ecosystems. Using a mesocosm experiment, this study investigates the individual and
The purpose of this project was to create an object that improves the performances of football players, preferably on all levels, be it professionals or amateurs. The main theme was science and technology, to explore how they together can be used to accomplish this task. The project consisted of doing research on site at amateur football clubs, which included observations of training sessions a
The research field of middle management within elderly care in Sweden is fairly unexplored. Even more so, there is little to no research on communication or communicative leadership and its influence on middle management within elderly care. Therefore, this study aims to investigate managers perspective on communication by interviewing middle managers working with elderly care. Furthermore, the st
Augmented reality is a field which is getting increased funding every year, as more businesses are realizing the potential of rendering virtual objects in the real world. As the equipment gets more commercialized, the costs will get lowered while performance also goes up. As of now, augmented reality mostly makes use of plane detection and marker detection to find and locate objects. We want to in
Syftet med denna uppsats är att utifrån en rättsdogmatisk metodlära undersöka vad som krävs för att ett barn ska beredas vård med stöd av LVU för ett socialt nedbrytande beteende. För att besvara syftet har jag använt mig av underrättspraxis. Detta med anledning av att förarbetets tolkning av rekvisitet är vagt. Utifrån syftet är frågeställningarna: Hur bör barnets bästa tolkas? Överensstämmer LVUThe necessary conditions for the compulsory care of children based on the grounds of socially degrading behaviour are vague in the legislative history. The purpose of this thesis is to examine compulsory care of children on the grounds of socially degrading behaviour with aim of creating more clarity. This is regulated through 3 § of the Act pertaining to Special Provisions on the Care of Young Pe
As we have evolved, human beings have developed a wide range of disciplines and discourses through which we address, analyse, dissect, explore and seek to progress, various aspects of our lives and what it is to be a human person. When considered from the perspective of each of these individual disciplines or vantage points different human features and aspects become the focus, depending on the le
The use of area-based approaches in urban regeneration is widely accepted in the European community. As these projects are based on the context of the focal area, there is no one-size-fits-all solution on how to design and implement those. The Eco-city Augustenborg project is an environmentally-led urban regeneration project initiated in Malmö in 1998. Today, fifteen years after the project was in
Utgångspunkten i svensk rätt är att våldtäktslagstiftningen ska skydda varje individs rätt till sexuell integritet och sexuellt självbestämmande. Dagens lagstiftning gör straffbart när gärningsmannen genom våld eller hot tvingat offret eller otillbörligt utnyttjat att offret befunnit sig i en särskilt utsatt situation. Den kritik som riktats mot våldtäktslagstiftningen är att en person är tillgängThe basis of the rape legislation in Sweden is the right of every individual's sexual integrity and sexual self-determination. The current legislation requires that the offender has used force, threat or a situation of exploitation. The critic against the legislation is that a person is available as long as he or she does not make any physical resistance. The presumption will be different with
It just turned out this way - the life stories of six young women confined to a secure juvenile correctional facility The purpose of this paper is to identify risk conditions and protective conditions for a group of girls under secure confinement, based on their retrospective testimonies, and also to examine how these conditions manifest themselves in their statements. The empirical basis for th
One of the biggest question in physics is to investigate the early universe or big bang. 10 µs after big bang, there existed a phase of transition called QGP (Quark Gluon Plasma). In this phase of transition quarks and gluon were free from each other. In normal life neutron and proton consist of three quarks with exchanging gluons. To simulate QGP scientists has built the large accelerator at CERN
It is estimated that approximately 8-10% of yogurt-based products stick to the carton packaging material surface (Hansson, 2011), and therefore consumers cannot pour the entire product out of the package. This is a multi-dimensional problem since product loss is expensive, because all the resources throughout the supply chain are wasted (European Parliament, 2011; FAO, 2012). In addition, the rema
Syfte: Vårt syfte är att undersöka aktiekursutvecklingen hos statligt ägda bolag som privatiserats helt eller delvis genom en börsintroduktion eller en nyemission. Vidare syftar uppsatsen till att undersöka huruvida storleken av privatiseringen har någon betydelse för aktiekursens utveckling samt om privatiseringen kan användas som en investeringsstrategi. Metod: För att undersöka utvecklingen avPurpose: To examine the stock performance of formerly state owned enterprises that have been fully or partly sold to the market as a result of an IPO or SEO. The general purpose of this essay is to see if one can use privatizations as a investment strategy, and if the share size of the IPO or SEO can explanatory to the performance. Methodology: To be able to perform this study and fulfil the purp
En stor del av världens sjötransporter går mellan Asien och Europa. Idag är den södra rutten genom Suez-kanalen populärast, men efter att isen i Arktis börjat smälta har den norra rutten öppnats upp som en möjlig utmanare till den södra rutten och skeppsägare ställs nu inför ett val. Sjötransport är en riskfylld verksamhet och både den södra och den norra rutten innehåller områden med ökad risk. There are two main shipping routes between Europe and Asia, among those the Southern Route through the Suez Canal is by far the most popular route. Due to a decrease in Arctic sea ice, the Northern Sea Route have opened up and is expected to become a viable alternative and a possible competitor to the Southern Route. The purpose of this essay is to contribute by advising ship-owners on what route
The purpose of this thesis was to explore gender norms, beauty ideals and social practices and the way these become ‘visible’ on the Japanese female body as (re)producing the ideal Japanese femininity and skin color in particular. In order to achieve that, I investigate and identify these norms, the mechanisms that implement them on the body and the attitudes and expression of resistance against t
Det saknas, så vitt vi vet, information om hur barn upplever svåra situationer i vardagen, och framförallt hur de upplever känslor som skam och skuld när de har en förälder med långvarig smärta. Dessutom finns det i Sverige inte någon insats inriktad på barnen under dessa förhållanden. Syftet med denna uppsats är att beskriva barnens upplevelse av skam och skuld av att leva med en långvarigt smärtThere is a lack, as far as we know, of information about how children experience difficult situations in everyday life and most importantly how they experience emotions such as shame and guilt when they have a parent with chronic pain. Moreover, in Sweden there is no effort focused on the children in these circumstances. The purpose of this study is to describe the children's experience of sha
This thesis offers a study on how well the standard GARCH(1,1) model, the GJR-GARCH(1,1) model and the QGARCH(1,1) model, were able to model (in-sample) and forecast (out-of-sample) the volatility of copper spot price returns in four equally large subsamples within the period July 21, 1993 to 22 Mars, 2012. The results shows that the GARCH models' ability to model the conditional variance (in-
About 90% of all startups fail to become successful, and the most significant reason is due to premature scaling. Limited research has priorly been conducted in the borderland between startups and supply chain. Explicitly on how a startup should go about defining its supply chain objective and how to measure its performance. Nevertheless, the high-tech startup industry sees potential in gaining in
In emerging economies, high investment costs hinder fast renewable energy (RE) deployment. Compared to industrial states, higher financial costs originate mainly from investment barriers and consequently risks. Using Vietnam as a case study for emerging economies, the objective of this thesis is to identify barriers and ways to remove risks by developing a de-risking policy mix that consequently h
The frequent restocking of stores and constant promotional offers associated with fast fashion presents the physical cues for consumers to engage in fashion-oriented impulse buying. This consumption behaviour has led to over consumption and the underutilization of clothes, adding to the problems of textile waste all over the world. Despite the increasing interest in consumers’ disposition behaviou
