This study examines how early-stage entrepreneurs come to engage in financial bootstrapping under conditions of financial constraint. Existing research has largely focused on the techniques entrepreneurs use to bootstrap and the structural conditions associated with such behaviour, while the interpretive process through which bootstrapping becomes a workable response has received limited attention
The Spoon, the Knife, the Fork and the Chaos? German Grammatical Gender as a Learning Challenge in Swedish Upper Secondary Schools This thesis examines German gender of German nouns as a learning and teaching challenge in Swedish upper secondary education. The study investigates how German teachers view the role of grammar, approach grammatical gender in the classroom and how they justify their
Segregation is a complex social phenomenon that has existed since the emergence of the first cities. In itself, segregation does not necessarily constitute a problem; however, it becomes a societal issue when it leads to excessively unequal conditions in people’s upbringing and living standards. One commonly highlighted approach to preventing and counteracting segregation is through deliberate and
This study investigates spatiotemporal changes in eelgrass (Zostera marina) extent in Skälderviken between 2006 and 2023, and compares these changes with riverine nutrient loads, modelled water-quality indicators and depth distribution. Eelgrass extent was mapped from orthophotos and high-resolution satellite imagery for 2006, 2010, 2016 and 2023. Annual nitrogen and phosphorus loads from Rönne å
Purpose: The purpose of this study is to explore how consumers discuss the use of Generative AI in luxury heritage storytelling, and how such use influences perceptions of brand authenticity of luxury heritage brands. Research Question: How do consumers discuss luxury heritage storytelling in relation to Generative AI? Theoretical Framework: The theoretical framework used is Beverland’s (2006) S
Anti-corruption reform is foundational for Ukraine’s accession to the European Union. Although accession conditionality has become a key driver of reform, formal requirements alone provide only a partial insight into how anti-corruption reform is advanced in practice. This thesis examines how EU-promoted anti-corruption norms acquire meaning and practical significance through their interaction wit
This thesis investigates how residents of the Pogranicze region, specifically Hajnówka County in north-eastern Poland, experience and interpret the act of helping migrants crossing the Polish-Belarusian border under conditions of hybrid war. Starting in 2021, the region has become the site of a humanitarian crisis, as the Belarusian state has instrumentalised migration as a geopolitical weapon, to
This thesis investigates how modifying the initial angular momentum (AM) condition of a Milky Way-like dark matter halo affects the orbital and structural properties of its satellite subhalos. This work uses a suite of five dark-matter-only (DMO) cosmological zoom-in simulations, the VINTERGATAN-GM-AM, in which the initial AM of the Lagrangian patch is modified using the genetIC code to obtain the
Agri-food systems are facing increasing environmental, social, and economic crises that have exposed their vulnerability and industrial agriculture’s dependence on fossil fuels and synthetic fertilizers. In response, resilience has emerged as a central concept in agri-food system governance, and both scholars and policymakers are calling for a transformation of agri-food systems. Community-Support
This thesis presents a Multi-Port DMA used to interface the memory. The ports used to interface the memory have a smaller width than the ports interfacing the system bus, but they are greater in number and bidirectional. Switching direc- tion however, from e.g. write to read infers a overhead penalty. A scheduling algorithm which optimizes the schedule in terms of overhead, would increase the over
Systemidentifiering handlar om att skapa modeller som beskriver ett system utifrån mätningar. Fokus i den här texten ligger på dynamiska system som styrs av ordinära differentialekvationer. Avvägningen mellan en noggrann modell och en modell som ̈ar lätt att förstå, tas upp. Metoden SINDy bygger på att konstruera ett bibliotek av funktioner som används för att optimera f i ekvationen x’ = f(x). Me
Keywords: heritage brands, slow fashion, brand positioning, country of origin Overall Aim: To contribute to literature of slow fashion, heritage, positioning and country of origin by exploring and developing the concept of Slow Heritage Fashion within the context of Swedish fashion heritage brands. Purpose: To investigate the phenomenon of Slow Heritage Fashion in a Swedish context. The three guid
The gaseous halo around galaxies, known as the circumgalactic medium (CGM), has been inferred from observations and simulations to transition from cold chaos to hot stability (virialisation), but the road it takes is uncertain. One of the possible routes is via the ejections of energy and matter from stars, called stellar feedback, within the galaxy, providing the necessary thermal support to stab
Detecting small leakages in thermodynamic cooling systems is a critical challenge in modern industrial applications, particularly in large-scale systems such as HVDC installations. Even minor leakages can reduce efficiency, increase energy consumption, and lead to higher maintenance costs. Detecting small leakages is difficult, because of complex system behavior, measurement noise, and natural var
The light dark matter experiment (LDMX) is a planned experiment to search for dark matter (DM) in the partly unexplored lower region of the mass range motivated by the thermal freeze-out mechanism. Electrons will be accelerated toward a tungsten target, and as they scatter off a nucleus, production of DM may occur, which will be inferred from a significant amount of missing energy in the detector.
Denna studie undersöker hur människors välbefinnande i bostadsområden påverkas av utomhusmiljö och biofilisk design. Vi har valt särskilt fokus på Holma i Malmö, ett område som byggdes under miljonprogrammet. Syftet med studien är att analysera hur Holmas bostadsmiljö förhåller sig till biofilisk design både i nutid och i samband med renoveringar och framtida stadsomvandling. För att genomföra arbThis study examines how people’s well-being in residential areas is affected by the outdoor environments and biophilic design. We have chosen to focus specifically on Holma in Malmö, an area built during the million homes programme era. The aim of the study is to analyze how Holma’s residential environment relates to biophilic design, both in present time and in connection with renovations and pla
There is an increasing demand for plant-based foods and a growing interest in valorising by-products from food production. One such plant-based by-product is oat okara, the fibre- and protein-rich residue generated during oat drink production. Due to its high moisture content and associated microbial instability, oat okara is currently underutilized and is primarily used as animal feed or discarde
