Purpose: The purpose of this study is to comprehend female millennial consumers’ perceptions towards lingerie brands that are categorised as ‘Brand Activist Aspirants’ compared to ‘Authentic Brand Activists’. Methodology: As this research focuses on studying consumers’ perceptions, a subjective social constructionist view was taken. By using an abductive approach, an exploratory qualitative resear

Med minskade resurser av fossila bränslen och ökade miljökrav har förnybara ersättningar fått större uppmärksamhet. Produktionen av förnybara kemikalier och bränslen genom förgasning av biomassa är en lovande lösning för att driva denna energiomställning. Syntesgas (syngas), en blandning av främst CO och H2, kan framställas av biomassa via förgasning. Biologisk me-tanisering, som ett potentiellt aWith reduced resources of fossil fuels and increased environmental requirements, renewable substitutes have received greater attention. The production of renewable chemicals and fuels through biomass gasification presents a promising route to drive this energy transition. Synthe-sis gas (syngas), a mixture of mainly CO and H2, can be produced from biomass via gasifica-tion. Biological methanation,

Restoring and meandering straightened streams is an important part of the Swedish environmental objective “Live lakes and water courses”. Restoration improves the living conditions for plants and animals that reside in or near the stream, and increases the uptake of excess nutrients leaking from nearby farmland. In this study, I have examined two restored streams; Glomsbäcken and Trollebergssträck

In this study we acquire an insight into the songwriting processes of eight female artists and music teachers. We investigate their creative processes, their thoughts on creativity and songwriting and the methods they use when composing. The informants share some of the challenges they face during the process and how to overcome them. Furthermore, we learn about factors enhancing the songwriting a

Responsibility and freedom : a study in managing copyright and trademark Avsikten med uppsatsen har varit att undersöka sambandet mellan författare och varumärke. Utifrån Moomin Characters Oy och Saltkråkan AB, vilka förvaltar Tove Janssons respektive Astrid Lindgrens rättigheter, har arbetet identifierat verksamheternas varumärken och mål. Varumärken som skiljer sig mellan verksamhet och förfat

Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning - Automatiskt ingångssystem med hjälp av flerobjektsspårning Tänk om de dörrar du passerar vet vart du är på väg? Med en kamera och bildbehandling visar vi att man kan spåra människor och förutse deras rörelse. Detta ger stora energibesparingar och ökad komfort. Automatiska dörrar är något de flesta kommer i kontakt med dagligen, på jobbet, gymmet eller i matvIn this thesis we employ computer vision methods in order to extend and improve the functionality of automatic doors. This thesis is based around the implementation of a door entrance system which uses information from detected pedestrians to make qualified decisions regarding door activation. This can lead to a reduced amount of unnecessary openings which will reduce the energy consumption of bui

Abstract There are several problems when studying, as this thesis, the interplay between the concepts of Europe and of nation, in an official discourse of a state. One is that these concepts are largely seen as being in a dichotomous position. This research argues about the importance of changing the perception about the various way the concepts can relate to each other. The study considers the re

Purpose: In the setting of a large Swedish media organisation, the purpose of this study is to create an understanding of how internal factors (strategy, organisational structure and culture) affect the organisation's ability to handle ambidexterity and how the factors interrelate. Methodology: A qualitative single case study was conducted, from multiple levels within a large Swedish media o

Skatteflyktsdirektivet antogs den 12 juli 2016 och ska vara implementerat i medlemsstaterna enligt artikel 11 sedan den 31 december 2018. Den artikel i skatteflyktsdirektivet som är av intresse för den här uppsatsen är artikel 6 och utgör generalklausulen mot missbruk. Syftet med generalklausulen är att komma åt de arrangemang eller transaktioner som försöker kringgå skattelagstiftningen. GeneralkThe Anti-Tax Avoidance Directive (ATAD) was adopted on 12 july and needed to be implemented by the member states on 31 december 2018. The general anti-avoidance rule (GAAR) in article 6 is the interest of this thesis. The purpose with the GAAR is to access the arrangements or transactions that try to circumvent the tax legislation. The GAAR should cover gaps and apply to arrangements that are not

Ljus som styr ljus - går det? Att styra ljus med ljus kan låta som en befängd idé, för att i vår vardag upplever vi inte något sådant: när du lyser på solljus med en ficklampa så ser du ingen skugga av ficklampans stråle - så uppenbarligen ändrar inte solens strålar sin riktning för att du lyser på dem! Du ser inte heller någon förändring i färgen på solstrålarna efter att de passerat ficklampansRecent developments in opto-optical modulation technique calls for improved temporal control of light modulation processes of coherent XUV light. This thesis project evaluates an experimental method aimed at achieving redirection and amplitude modulation of XUV-light, by using precise determination of decay times in states of noble gases that are deemed suitable for opto-optical control. It is pos

Title: Sustainable investments. How are they interpreted and used as a part of branding?

During the 1990s, The Former Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia broke up along its republics' borders, largely due to an economic and political crisis, as well as a rise in nationalism and ethnic tensions. Where different nationalities and ethnic groups struggled to coexist, and unresolved ethnic, nationalistic and religious troubles were rising to the surface - a Serbian politician by t

Detta examensarbete behandlar utvecklingen av ett intelligent belysningssystem på Beckhoff Automation AB:s kontor i Malmö. Syftet är att minska energiförbrukningen utan att kompromissa användarkomforten, genom att automatisera styrningen av kontorets belysning med hjälp av närvarodetektering, ljusnivåmätningar och fördefinierade ljusscenarier. Projektet programmeras via Beckhoffs PLC-system, TwinC

Gambling problems often coexist with various psychopathological conditions. The Hierarchical Taxonomy of Psychopathology (HiTOP; Kotov et al., 2017) offers an empirically based model to structure psychopathological symptoms into broader dimensional spectra, including internalizing (anxious-depressive), externalizing (impulsive-aggressive), and thought disorder (dissociated-psychotic) symptoms. The
