Globally, the production and consumption of plastic has increased exponentially. As plastic items are produced using fossil fuels, the plastic industry is intrinsically tied to the petrochemical industry. One unique case of this dilemma lies in the petrochemical industry’s role in plastic production in Taiwan. Despite its reputation for recycling, Taiwan is satiated with ineffective sustainability

The introduction of nasal glucocorticosteroids, 30 years ago, has been the most important therapeutic progress in rhinitis management since the introduction of the first generation of antihistamines. Our knowledge of the mode of action of glucocorticosteroids in the nose has improved as the airway mucous membrane of the nose is easily accessible for investigation. However, the exact mechanism behi

Giving children with disabilities opportunities to explore how to use a powered mobility device is important for their development and learning. Encouraging and supporting exploration of how to set a device in motion and how to use it, has to be performed in harmony with each child and their abilities, needs and motivation. The experience of self-produced movement gives bodily feelings when action

This report contains a fire safety evaluation of Kyrkskolan, Svedala. Kyrkskolan is an educational institution in the community of Svedala that houses a primary school, preschool and kindergarten. Parts of the building are roughly 100 years old and there has been a need to investigate if the fire safety is satisfactory with respect to present regulations and risk acceptance. The aim of this work

The participant who perhaps should have the greatest impact in problem: the planning process of a building are the ones who are going to use it – the users. It is those who will spend time in and take part of the building’s functionality and architecture. However, it is unclear to what extent the user has the opportunity to influence the planning of a building. Every new project needs a common goa

The aim of this study was to examine how staff members of an orphanage in Zagreb, Croatia, operate their work with the attended orphans. Also to perceive what the staff members estimate as the essential needs of the orphans and how they work in order to supply them. By semi-structured interviews with five of the staff members, we have gained their attitude towards our intentions of the study. Subs

The rise of AI is leading to paradigm shifts in every sector of modern society, including the military. One concerning change is the increase in the development, testing, and deployment of autonomous weapons systems (AWS), which utilise modern AI without adequate controlling regulation or governance. This thesis explores what it means to have control of AWS and whether it is possible to effectivel

A new method based on the mode matching technique and the finite element method (FEM) is presented. The method can handle a general thick frequency selective structure (FSS), that consists of an arbitraryn umber of aperture layers and dielectric layers. An aperture layer consists of a conducting plate with a periodic arrayof apertures. The order and the thickness of the layers can be arbitrary. The

In this paper I consider whether eudamonism—i.e. the thesis that the ultimate aim of human life and conduct is the attainment of happiness and that the achievement of this goal is closely linked to the acquisition and exercise of moral virtue and tranquillity of the soul—could serve as a framework for a theory of rights. I argue that the eudaimonist’s chances to ground a theory of rights from with
