Havet och vattnet symboliserar för mig avkoppling och rekreation, likväl som träning och sport. Att blicka ut över havet eller en vattenspegel får mig att känna ett lugn och välbefinnande. Det här examensarbetet tog sin början då jag ville undersöka ett aktuellt ämne. Jag fick till min kännedom att det flytande badhuset Liljeholmsbadet invid Bergsunds strand på Södermalm i Stockholm hade stängts
The study of post-translational modification has driven scientist to have a better understanding of protein function, activity and behavior in the metabolism that could later be useful for developing new drugs and treatments targeting key proteins in diseases, like cancer or neuronal disorders. In this project we tried to optimize the Acyl-Biotin Exhange of proteins coming from Chinese Hamster Ova
The sharing economy is currently widely discussed and politically of great importance, especially in urban areas. After a first rise in public interest due to a potential decrease of consumption, engaged actors are now calling for regulation mechanisms to defend the concept against the co-option by large incumbent firms, who transform the original idea into new economic opportunities. The accommod
Den ökade sjukfrånvaron på grund av psykiska besvär har givits allt större uppmärksamhet i samhället, vilket väckte ett intresse av att studera fenomenet ytterligare. Detta genom att se till vilken inverkan psykosociala arbetsmiljöfaktorer kan innebära för effektiviteten och kvaliteten i arbetet. Syftet med föreliggande studie är att, utifrån såväl ett ledar- som medarbetarperspektiv, undersöka de
The academic field of followership is, in relation to leadership, considerably unexplored. Numerous academic subfields and theories have emerged within the school, the most influential being a four frame model developed by Robert E. Kelley. The model divides followers on the two dimensions active and critical thinking, into five categories: Sheep, alienated, pragmatist, yes-people and effective fo
Erosion av vattendrags flodbottnar och intilliggande strandmiljö är ett stort samhällsproblem som förväntas öka i takt med framtida klimatförändringar. Statens geotekniska institut (SGI) har erhållit anslag för att kartlägga större vattendrag i Sverige med hänseende på risken för skred i framtiden till följd av klimatförändringar. Ett vattendrags sårbarhet för erosion kan bedömas utifrån ett indexErosion of river basins and adjacent bank environment is a major environmental problem that is expected to increase in the future due to climate change. The Swedish geotechnical institute (SGI) has been granted funding by the Swedish government for mapping major rivers in Sweden with regard to the risk of landslides due to climate change. A river's vulnerability to erosion can be assessed base
Bakgrund: En journalgranskningsstudie av Sveriges kommuner och landsting gjord 2013–2015 visade att vårdskador kostar Sverige 7 miljarder/år. Vårdskador är ett globalt problem. WHO har därför utvecklat olika instrument och riktlinjer för att öka patientsäkerheten på operation. Operationsverksamhet är en högriskmiljö och anestesisjuksköterskans vardag. Syfte: Syftet med studien var att undersöka oc
Extant research within the entrepreneurial marketing field has typically focused on the migration away from traditional marketing concepts while mostly ignoring the inclusion of branding as a fundamental principle of marketing. This paper is specifically interested in the often overlooked element of a young firm’s ability (or lack thereof) to control its brand and brand identity as perceived by it
Based on a qualitative approach, this study examines and problematizes how employees in a flexible organization, through the internal communication community, consolidate and renegotiate the organization's identity. Furthermore, it creates an understanding of the flexible employees ability to co-create, and their view on the importance of being able to identify themselves with the organization
The PID controller is by far the most popular controller for process control in industry today [Åström and Murray, 2008]. The combination of its relatively simple usage and its satisfactory results within several areas has gained its popularity [Visioli, 2006]. However, the tuning of the controller is crucial. An automatic tuning method was developed by [Åström and Hägglund, 1984] in the mid-eight
Thesis purpose: The aims of this thesis are to investigate (1) the effect of sponsorship disclosure timing (before vs. after) on attitudes towards the brand and attitudes towards the vlogger in a beauty vlog context and (2) test a possible moderating effect of discount codes on the relationships between disclosure timing and attitudes towards the brand and the vlogger. These two aims were pursued
The Nigerian economy grew at an average rate of 7% between 20002011. However, recent drop in oil prices has led to calls for economic diversification away from oil. Using the services-led growth theoretical framework, this thesis provides an overview of the Nigerian service-sector. Through an analysis of descriptive statistics, the thesis showed that services have been contributing significantly t
Policy targeting the integration of cross-border regional innovation systems (CBRIS) plays a crucial role in terms of reaching the European Union’s cohesion goals. So far, little research has been done on how policy structures shape the integration of cross-border regional innovation systems. Applying Rogge and Reichardt’s (2016) policy mix for sustainability transitions concept to a cross-border
Forskningen om Emilie Flygare-Carléns (1807-1892) författarskap har länge framhävt en särskild relation till naturen, men sedan dess inträde i det sena 1900-talets genusvetenskapliga litteraturhistorier har denna relation komplicerats. Den här uppsatsen undersöker därför naturskildringar i författarens roman En natt vid Bullar-sjön (1847) med utgångspunkt i ekokritiska, dekonstruktivistiska perspeStudies of the authorship of Emilie Flygare-Carlén (1807-1892) have previously emphasised a distinct way of relating to nature in her writing, but the strengthened position of gender studies in examinations of literary history has complicated this relationship. For this reason, this essay analyses portrayals of nature in the author’s novel En natt vid Bullar-sjön (1847), from ecocritical, deconstr
There is a relationship between income inequality and economic performance. This relationship is based on different channels between income inequality and economic performance. These channels are based on incentives, investment opportunities, policy, and taxation. The effects of the different channels are noticeable after different time-periods. This paper tested if income inequality affects econo
Coastal protection is vital for protecting infrastructure, coastal environments and human lives against flooding. Building ecient coastal protection requires a good understanding of maximum sea levels which might occur indifferent time periods in the future. Extreme value theory provides a mathematical framework for such analyses. On November 13, 1872 the biggest recorded sea level surge devastat
Contemporary Russia is among some of the most unequal countries. After the fall of the Soviet Union, economic inequality has rapidly increased, and social discontent is rising as demonstrated by the continuous protests that culminated in opposition rallies during March 2017. Despite these events, political stability characterizes the current conditions of the Russian regime. What are the forces ma
Particle Physics is well described by the Standard Model (SM). However, there are phenomena in the universe that the model does not describe. Supersymmetry, which predicts a partner particle for all fundamental particles, is an extension of the SM that provides solutions to problems the SM cannot solve. Finding the partner particles is crucial in order to confirm the theory about Supersymmetry. Wh
Increasing global production fragmentation allows for emission displacement, which may counteract advanced nation’s domestic reductions of production-related carbon emissions. Consequently, input-output analysis has become a common tool to measure countries’ carbon footprint and emission trade balances based on national consumption instead of domestically produced CO2 emissions. Nevertheless, trad
