This thesis examines how sustainability is prioritised politically and integrated in the Danish municipal primary and lower secondary education. It consults representatives from the Ministry of Education, the unicipality of Copenhagen and ten lower secondary education teachers about their perceptions of sustainability and education and their experiences with integration of sustainability education
This paper analyses the economic impact of Transnational Corporations through their activities across Global Value Chains (GVCs), using Mexico as baseline country. By exploiting the UNCTAD-Eora Global Value Chain database, we conduct an exploratory research methodology. We first unfold the relationship between GVC trade and economic development by disaggregating GVC trade into its two components (
The Standard Model of particle physics (SM) attempts to describe the fundamental particles and how they interact with each other. This model is however incomplete, as shown by various experimental observations. ATLAS is one of the experiments currently in operation at the Large Hadron Collider, which aims to search for new physics beyond the SM. To perform these searches, many ATLAS analyses look
This study evaluates and compares four green roof methods with the purpose to calculate how many green roofs that potentially can be built on already existing buildings in a city. The methods are created for the cities Braunschweig, Thessaloniki, Lisbon and Lund. All of the methods mainly use Geospatial Information Systems and remote sensing analysis as tools. In order to answer the research quest
Denna studie utvärderar och jämför fyra grönatakmetoder med syftet att beräkna hur många gröna tak som potentiellt kan byggas på redan befintliga byggnader i en stad. Metoderna rör städerna Braunschweig, Thessaloniki, Lissabon och Lund. Geografiska informationssystem och fjärranalys används som verktyg i alla metoderna. Vidare observerar denna studie de kriterier som valts ut i metoderna och underThis study evaluates and compares four green roof methods with the purpose to calculate how many green roofs that potentially can be built on already existing buildings in a city. The methods concern the cities Braunschweig, Thessaloniki, Lisbon, and Lund. Geospatial Information Systems and remote sensing analysis are used as tools in all of the methods. Furthermore, this study observes the criter
Genom en idéanalys baserad på dimensioner undersöks europeiska investeringsbankens nya policy för investeringar i energisektorn, EIB energy lending policy: Supporting the energy transformation (ELP) för att urskilja om det finns idéer i dokumentet baserade på liberalistisk och konstruktivistisk teori rörande internationella relationer. Efter att syftet och frågeställningen presenterats, beskrivs b
More and more people are moving to urban areas, but with this urban growth, there is also an increase in the urban population coping with health problems. This thesis explores the possibilities of restoring mental health through Urban Design. This is done by creating a vision plan for a restorative neighbourhood in Antwerp, named 'Het Eilandje'.
Airlines face a highly competitive industry requiring large capital investment at thin profit margins. In addition, the carriers are re-emerging from the COVID-19 pandemic; a time period which brought the industry to a standstill and revenue streams to an unforeseen low. Airlines are now facing their next challenge: regaining their market shares to pre-pandemic levels, and beyond. As such, reputat
In this master’s thesis I have studied the 7th section of the 2nd chapter in the Swedish environmental code (miljöbalken 1998:808). The regulation encompasses the proportionality principle of environmental consideration. Its purpose is to avoid that costly countermeasures are imposed that have limited or no negative impact on the environment. The proportionality principle in the environmental code
The communicating home concept has been defined by identifying the dominating communication technologies to/from and in the homes, the most important customer behavior and user needs, the dominating products and the dominating actors of the industry. The evaluation of the communicating home industry has been performed with a five forces framework analysis and theories regarding value migration and
Problem: Since business process management (BPM) is a very spacious concept, it is influenced from many other concepts, standards and methods that determine its constancy. Companies are asked to restructure their organisation in order to meet internal and external customer demands. The term quality comes to the fore. Organisations such as ISO and the EFQM try to certify or assess companies in term
This paper provides an answer to the requests that has been made for witness confrontations to become an accurate and reliable tool in the court. This was achieved by the development and testing of the Guilty Face Test (GFT). Facial stimuli was used in a Target Present lineup were the enhanced elicitation of the Even-Related Potential component P300 confirmed recognition of the culprit. The partic
The purpose with this essay is to investigate if there are conditions for freedom of religion in Sudan after the Comprehensive Peace Agreement of 2005. My methodology is to investigate the question of religions liberty in Sudan on the basis of three social levels: state level, religious actors and individual- level. I will use Cole Durham’s comparative Model for analyzing religions liberty and app
To promote more collaborative sustainable governance processes, environmental information transparency is required at all stages. As an authoritarian country with rapid economic growth, China has faced serious environmental degradations that threaten citizens’ daily life. Over the last two decades, China has witnessed a trend to integrate third parties into environmental governance and an increasi
Att bygga material av proteiner är en konst som våra kroppar är specialister på. Men när vi medvetet försöker designa proteinmaterial, så blir det tydligt hur komplexa och svårstyrda biofysikens lagar är. Det här examensarbetet har som mål att lägga grunden för ett proteinmaterial som kan skapas eller dissociera som respons på förändrad Ca2+-koncentration. Om ett sådant material kan framställas me
Execution time is an important issue in the field of numerical analysis. Simulations are getting more and more complex and the execution times are rapidly increasing. In the scope of this thesis a time integration library is used to solve initial value problems. The aim of the thesis is to implement and investigate two different approaches to decrease the execution time for the library. The main f
During evolution the human brain has increased drastically in size compared to that of other primates. However, little is known about primate brain development as it is difficult to study human and primate brains in the laboratory due to the scarcity of tissues. Yet, it is essential to study primate brains and understand the molecular features leading to the human brain’s unique cognitive function
The thesis consists of two parts. Registration of Digital Images: Registration of images is a fundamental task in image processing. This is to match two or more images taken, for example, at different times, from different sensors or from different points of view. The methods used to register images are striving for a similarity metric indicating when the images are correctly registered. A similar
By the end of the 1960s there was a growing environmental concern all around the globe. As a part of an answer to this challenge the need was recognized for a reorientation of the education processes towards developing knowledge, attitudes and skills for resolving the issues. This was the birth of the concept of Environmental Education (EE). However, this notion is far from being static as it went
