Gender-based violence (GBV) be it in peace or conflict settings is a persistent problem that has gained grounds and concerns for activists, women’s organisations, Civil Society Organisations (CSOs) in general and international bodies like the United Nations. Social inequalities and cultural ideologies inform GBV and other forms of violence that are amplified in war times. Women in war play differe
This report is made in order to evaluate the safety, in case of a fire, of personnel and patients in the surgical facilities at Helsingborg General Hospital. The problem that arises in this report is regarding the evacuation of patients that are undergoing surgery. This is a problem since it can take up to 60 minutes to finish a surgery and make a patient ready for evacuation. To determine the fir
Our aim is to study if and how LGBTIQ has been made invisible in the public library context, and how this can be countered. In order to do this, we have studied the public library of Hallonbergen, located in Sundbyberg, Sweden. Hallonbergen is the first library in Sweden certificated by RFSL (The Swedish Federation for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Rights). The certificate shows that they
Världen över finns det idag flickor, kvinnor och pojkar som inte får leva ut sin fulla potential, som inte får njuta av sina mänskliga och grundläggande rättigheter och friheter. Människor som förtrycks, utsätts för våld och i värsta fall även berövas livet. Deras brott är att de vill leva sina liv, såsom de själva vill. Hedersrelaterat våld och förtryck är ett angeläget samhällsproblem som angåThere are today people around the world who are not able to live their lives as they want. People who are oppressed, victims of violence and in worst case scenario even killed. Their committed crime is that the want to live their life, just the way they want. Honor related violence and oppression is a problem for the whole society. This paper aims to investigate whether this problem is best foug
In this thesis top quark decays to a charm quark and a (CP even) Higgs boson are investigated in a general two-Higgs-doublet model (2HDM) allowing flavour-changing neutral currents. The theory behind 2HDMs is introduced and the specific choice of 2HDM is put to test under theoretical constraints that require the potential in the Lagrangian density of the model to satisfy vacuum stability, tree-lev
Nanowires are important candidates for use in future electronics, photonics and thermoelectrics applications. We focus here in particular on nanowires for use in thermoelectric power generation and present a method of fabricating dense uniform InAs nanowire arrays amenable to future incorporation of advanced heterostructures that could further increase the thermoelectric performance of these nanow
Understanding factors that limit gene flow through the landscape is crucial for conservation of organisms living in fragmented habitats. We analysed patterns of gene flow in Elater ferrugineus, an endangered click beetle living in old-growth, hollow trees in a network of rural avenues surrounded by inhospitable arable land. Using amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) data, we aimed to eval
Regime shifts in shallow lakes are typically characterized by submerged macrophyte (clear water regime) or phytoplankton (turbid regime) dominance. Climate warming is expected to affect water quality and facilitate turbidity in lakes, but we may also expect synergistic effects on organisms' interactions from climate and local specific dynamics in lakes. We here examined long-term changes in phytop
Popular Abstract in Swedish Arktiska ekosystem utgör en viktig del av det globala terrestra utbytet av växthusgaser och energi med atmosfären. I ett klimat som förändras, särskilt uttalat i Arktisk, bör tänkbara framtidsprognoser av växthusgasutbytet från dessa områden övervägas noga när framtida klimat modelleras. En förutsättning för detta är detaljerade studier av nyckelprocesser som påverkar vArctic ecosystems represent an important component in the global terrestrial exchange of greenhouse gases and energy with the atmosphere. In the changing climate, which is most pronounced in the Arctic, the possible scenarios of greenhouse gas exchange response should be seriously considered in predictive climate modelling efforts. As a prerequisite for this, detailed studies of key processes affe
The purpose of this thesis is to examine whether active fund management gives higher risk adjusted returns in comparison to index funds. This will be done by the use of three different performance measures, Sharpe ratio, Treynor ratio, and Jensen’s Alpha, the aim is to examine 116 mutual funds in the Swedish fund market over the time period of 2016-2021. By using Ordinary Least Squares, with a dum
With the emergence of the digital spaces, modern society has been witnessing the transformation of the public sphere, which is mostly altered by the new means of communication. Simultaneously, civic discussions that are taking place within the public sphere, are inevitably going through the same transformation and are now more and more often found in the digital spaces. This thesis is taking on th
This paper estimates and simulates a New-Keynesian small-scale DSGE macro model. The model consists of the hybrid forms of the Phillips curve and the IS curve, and is closed with a Taylor-type feedback rule allowing partial adjustment of the monetary policy instrument. We estimate the three-equation system simultaneously on Swedish data 1995:Q1 to 2014:Q4 with the FIML estimator. The empirical par
The integration of small computer units in vehicles has made more complex in-vehicle functionality possible. To troubleshoot these more advanced functions, the diagnostic services need to read out more data from the integrated computer units, causing an increased network load. This has caused a demand on more efficient ways of performing vehicle diagnostics. One possible way to decrease the netwo
The genre of the Irish “Big House” novel is one deeply entrenched in historical context. To be unaware of the setting, and the significance of identity within it, lessens the understanding and impact of character, motivations, and conflict in the text. This essay discusses and analyses displays of identity through language, subtext, and history in two novels in the Big House genre: Castle Rackrent
III-V nanowire transistors might provide a mean for extending Moore’s law, by overcoming the scaling limitations ultimately facing planar silicon CMOS. These high frequency capable transistors with cut-off frequencies in the terahertz regime are suitable for radio communication. In this project an active double-balanced gilbert cell mixer consisting of nanowire field-effect transistors (NWFETs) wa
This thesis is the result of a work for Saab Automobile AB in Trollhättan, and more specifically the Department of under hood design. The project has been to Lund University and finishes my education in Technical Design. Supervisor at the company who has assisted me with much help is Andreas Barbunopulos and supervisors at the school have been Ola Carlquist and Karl-Axel Andersson. The purpose
In recent years the number of connected devices and the demand for high data-rates have been significantly increased. This enormous growth is more pronounced by the introduction of the Internet of things (IoT) in which several devices are interconnected to exchange data for various applications like smart homes and smart cities. Moreover, new applications such as eHealth, autonomous vehicles, and c
