This thesis examines how PR staff at a diplomatic mission adapt institutional communication to social media in their everyday work, and which organisational, professional, and platform-related conditions facilitate or constrain this work. As diplomatic communication increasingly takes place through social media content, embassies must translate central directives into locally relevant and platform
This project examines whether a Taylor-based risk-factor mapping framework can accurately and efficiently estimate Value at Risk for option-heavy portfolios without the high computational cost of full revaluation. The method maps changes in portfolio value to a selected set of market risk factors, including equity spot returns, foreign exchange rates, interest-rate curves, and principal components
Marine microorganisms have the potential to disperse widely with few obvious barriers to gene flow. However, among microalgae, several studies have demonstrated that species can be highly genetically structured with limited gene flow among populations, despite hydrographic connectivity. Ecological differentiation and local adaptation have been suggested as drivers of such population structure. Her
Online hemodiafiltration (HDF) is a dialysis modality that can improve patient outcomes beyond those achieved with conventional high-flux hemodialysis (HD) in patients with kidney failure. The CONVINCE trial, the latest and the largest of a series of randomized trials comparing HDF with HD, demonstrated a 23% reduction in the risk of all-cause mortality with high-volume HDF compared to high-flux H
Introduction: Reversed phase liquid chromatography (RPLC) is a central analytical technique in pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical science, where it is essential to reliably detect, separate, quantify, and purify drugs, of which a majority contain basic groups. Background: Basic analytes often exhibit poor peak shape, for example tailing, due to mixed-mode interactions with the stationary phase.
Den svenska förmögenhetsrätten bygger till viss del på allmänna principer. En av dessa är den skadelidandes skyldighet att begränsa en uppkommen skada. Enligt den rättsdogmatiska metoden och ett kritiskt perspektiv med skadeståndsrättens funktion som komplement behandlar framställningen skadebegränsningsskyldighetens innebörd vid utomobligatoriska skadestånd, var gränsen går till jämkning till fölSwedish torts and contracts law is in part based on general principles of law. One principle of particular interest is the obligation the injured party holds to limit the damage. The questions raised in this paper is if there is a single definition of the principle with a coherent meaning, where and when the principle applies, where and when the rule of apportionment applies and also what function
Through a deductive content analysis, this paper aimed to elucidate a place for critical literacy as an educational approach based on research by Lewison, Flint and Van Sluys in the Swedish curricula for upper secondary school, GY2000 and Lgy11, respectively. After reading research by Cabau and Hult, showing how the curricula propagates the position of English in the curriculum, and the Swedish so
This thesis explores and maps the current flow of information within the Malawi Health Information Systems (HIS), which is paper based but now moving towards a digitalized system. This transition provides a unique opportunity to map and study how dimensions of Information Quality (IQ) can indicate the effectiveness of information flow. In comparing the paper based information flow and the transiti
Morphology, structure and chemistry have been investigated for 17 different commercial graphenegrades,all labeled as different kinds of graphene powder. For objectivity reasons, all powders have been given names as Graphene A-Q instead of their real product names. Out of the 17 tested powders, only Graphene A and B showed consistent results of being graphene-like. All powders have been characteriz
Vätgas har potential i ett energilagringssystem eftersom det är en energibärare som är väldigt energirik och kan lagras i stor skala. Vätgas kan produceras enkelt via elektrolys av vatten och lagras i stora mängd under högt tryck, vid behov kan vätgasen sedan brännas i en kraftverksprocess och generera elektricitet. Då förbränning av vätgas med syrgas enbart bildar vattenånga kan ett förnybart eneHydrogen gas has potential to function as an energy storage solution due to its high energy content and its suitability for large scale storage. Hydrogen can be produced by water electrolysis and can be stored in large scale under high pressure, when needed the hydrogen can be burned in a thermal power plant to generate electricity. Since combustion of hydrogen with pure oxygen only yields steam,
Jag har identifierat ett speciellt samarbetsproblem inom området frånskilda föräldrars umgänge med sina gemensamma barn. Det handlar om att ena föräldern inte fullgör sitt umgänge utan bara uteblir. Jag har kallat detta för omvänt umgängessabotage. Jag har inte i dagens regelverk funnit någon rättslig lösning när detta problem inträffar. Därför har jag undersökt om problemet kan förebyggas i förväI have identified a problem of cooperation in the field of divorced parents spending time with their children. The problem is that one parent is deliberately absent and not fulfilling the agreements of spending time with the children. I have called it reverse visitation interference, and I haven’t found any legal solution to it. Therefore, I have evaluated if the problem can be prevented by agreement
In the peak of the 2015 refugee crisis, Sweden stipulated a new law in order to give the system respite while recovering from the pressure that followed from the 162 877 asylum applications Sweden received that year. The Act (2016:752) on temporary limitations of the opportunity to be granted residence permit in Sweden entered to force on 19 July 2016 to apply for three years. The law constitution
Title: Exploring Expectations of an Unattended Delivery Service: A Case Study in Sweden Author: Mary Catherine Osman Supervisor: Daniel Hellström Purpose of Paper: The goal of this thesis is to better understand Swedish consumers’ expectations of an unattended delivery box system such as Nowaste’s E-drop. Methodology: This thesis answers its research question through a series of case studies in w
Each year around 3.9 million girls around the world are victims to female genital mutilation/cutting. This custom is often a consequence of traditional, social and cultural norms within a society. In Sweden, female genital mutilation/cutting is illegal and punishable by law, and professionals have obligations to report if there is suspicion that a girl either is, or is at risk of being genitally m
It is necessary for all industries to work actively to minimize their impact on the climate, including the construction industry, which accounts for a significant part of Sweden's total CO_2-emissions. Development to produce concrete and steel with more environmentally friendly processes is ongoing, but to lower emissions immediately and achieve long-term sustainability, we need to develop met
The aim of this thesis was to compare different ways of dissociating tissue - specifically breast cancer tissue - and sorting out tumour cells and immune cells from the dissociated tissue using acoustophoresis in a microfluidic chip. Due to ethical issues with using tumour tissues to work on the methodology of a project, ultimately only healthy breast tissue was used in this work. Two dissociatio
As the clock ticks on our opportunity to limit catastrophic climate change, mitigation efforts are becoming increasingly essential, especially amongst countries with high current or historic emissions. However, these mitigation attempts are not a guaranteed success, especially when the system within which they operate is not understood due to unacknowledged bias in quantitative data. As such, wick
There is a growing shift in environmental management tools from the traditional command and control approach to market mechanisms where environmental goods and services are assigned market values to generate incentives for environmental protection. In November 2007, the Sabah state government announced a joint venture with New Forests Pty. Ltd. to set up a Wildlife Conservation Bank at Malua Fores
Context: Today, 96% of Sweden’s materials come from virgin resources and only 3.4% of resources used in Sweden are retained in the value chain. From a total of 266 million tonnes fed into the economy each year, 46.9% consist of construction materials. Hence, there is a need to adapt circular strategies, such as reuse of construction products, to meet Sweden’s goal of becoming net zero by the year
