Political instability the last decades has forced millions of people to migrate from their homelands. In Sweden today, 1.6 million are born abroad, of which the largest immigrant groups originate from the Middle East. Immigrants from these areas represent high risk populations for type 2 diabetes with prevalence of type 2 diabetes twice as high compared to the native Swedish population. The mechan
Climate change increases the need for climate-adapted cities. In order to sustainably manage climate risks such as increased precipitation and temperatures, alternative solutions are required. Including nature-based solutions into urban planning can help mitigate these risks. Nature-based solutions are supported or inspired by nature and aim to solve problems related to climate change. The purpose

Popular Abstract in English Globalization and new technologies in transportation and communication have opened the doors for partnerships beyond the national and regional borders, making business survival more complex than ever before. We can see more companies outsourcing different aspects of their business in order to focus on one or a few core competencies, which would potentially gain them morIn this dissertation, we discuss how buyers practice purchasing strategies in an asymmetric power situation favoring suppliers, and how their purchasing strategies practiced impact their purchasing power and buyer-supplier relationships. Organizations enter exchange relationships to access required resources not produced internally, and are exposed to uncertainty from not being able to fully contr
In my thesis I have chosen to immerse myself in the regional power line network and how it will be built. I have chosen this topic because it is a significant question today and in the future. The investments and technical choices made today, will affect the outcome on the society of tomorrow. When the local power line network was rebuilt, after the hurricane Gudrun in the year 2005, it implied a

Tenant shopkeepers are micro-entrepreneurs or petit bourgeoisie that are often dismissively labeled as unrevolutionary, reactionary, and individualistic. Scholarly literature contributes to this invisibility. However, tenant shopkeepers in urban Korea are collectively orga
SSAB Tunnplåt AB manufactures high strength steel to e.g. beams to trailers, containers, trucks and cars. In high strength steel designs the ratio width to thickness is also high and therefore the risk for local buckling is high. When buckling occurs the stress will re-distribute and large deformation will occur. It is therefore important to take buckling into consideration when dimensioning high
Effective communication between students and supervisors has been shown to be of importance for a high quality doctoral education by many pedagogical studies (Manathunga [1], Delamont, Aktinson and Parry [2], Halse and Malfroy [3], Bergnéher [4]). This contribution focuses on communication between supervisors and doctoral students with regard to the writing of the doctoral thesis. When it comes to
The anaerobic digestion process results in the production of biogas from a large diversity of organic residues, which can be used as an alternate source of energy generation and for waste management. However, the biogas production technology is not exploited efficiently due to the characteristics of raw materials, poor methane yields, process instability, limited raw materials and lack of knowledg

For quite some time, the governance of municipal corporations has been criticized on the grounds of its lack of transparency and its weak mechanisms of accountability. However, despite the fact that municipal ownership of corporations has become an increasingly controversial issue, the number of municipal corporations has grown, as has also the extent to which they are perceived as a source of unf
