The aim of this master’s thesis is to investigate the discursive networks and production contexts of the rare and insular phenomena of Swedish experimental features. As a point of departure, the tentative and limited filmography of Swedish artist Öyvind Fahlström is expanded upon, as the thesis present a unique case study on his first and only feature film Du gamla, Du fria (“Provocation”, 1972).
The International Development Community places individuals at the center of concern for policy making. This study investigates why group analyses are crucial for the welfare of individual and social stability, and claims that the concept of Horizontal Inequality (group-based inequality) is important but widely neglected. The group of investigation is the indigenous population in Chiapas, Mexico’s
This thesis is a propositional study, analysing to what extent conventional concepts of urban housing architecture require updating in response to increasingly progressive living patterns developing in Europe. The propositional design is a modular system including permanent housing for short-term accommodation - alongside a trail of public walkways - which inhabits, activates and connects a netwo
Lunds centralstationen är en av Sveriges högst trafikerade stationer i dagsläget. Dagligen sker tusentals resor till och från Lunds centralstation. För att ta sig till och från centralstationen är risken stor att man måste passera det obevakade övergångstället som är beläget mellan centralstationen och Clemenstorget. Vid ett samråd 2016 framgick det att det fanns ett starkt missnöjde angående traf
Language and gesture are two semiotic systems that work together in close integration during communication. One issue in particular, that of image schemas, has been studied in relation to gestures, though most often in adult gesture and communication (Williams, forthcoming; Cienki, 2013; Mittelberg, 2006, 2018). This contrasts with mimetic schemas, which are thought to be more specific structures
Vid studier av den psykosociala arbetsmiljön inom hälso- sjukvård- och omsorgssektorn har Arbetsmiljöverket identifierat brister i kommunikationen på arbetsplatserna, brister i kunskap om arbetsmiljöfrågor och höga stressnivåer. Syftet med den här studien är att undersöka hur undersköterskor och vårdbiträden på ett äldreboende upplever hur de blir bemötta på sin arbetsplats och i sin yrkesroll. De
Spray-dried milk serum protein concentrate powders could be applied either as ingredients in dairy applications or delivery materials in pharmaceutical and biotechnology industry. Yet, one of the critical challenges is that lumps are easily to form when the powders is added into water. Surface rheology of solutions from redissolved protein powders is suggested to be an important part in increasing
This industrial design project is focusing on the area of kitchen appliances and its relationship to the environmental issues of today. The reason why we started to work in this field was because we wanted to work towards sustainability in an area where it was not a common thing - and we immediately chose electronic devices. You rarely see an ecological X-box or a repairable computer. W
Understanding the evolutionary processes behind intraspecific variation and population differentiation is an important topic in biology, since intraspecific variation is required for speciation. Angiosperms show fascinating diversity in flower designs. Since the flower is crucial for reproductive success and at the same time often involved in biotic interactions with pollinators and/or herbivores,
The main objective of this bachelor’s thesis was to develop a prototype for a system in the shape of a database with applications for environmental reports from waste incineration plants. The intent is to create a showcase and a proof of technology for ÅF Malmö’s customers who have an estimated benefit of this technology. The system needs to process data from a waste incineration plant according t
En järnväg kommer till en ort som tidigare saknat tågtrafik. En station ska byggas och passas in i en befintlig struktur. Nya möjligheter till att pendla skapas, till arbetsplatser och utbildning på andra orter. Fler får också möjlighet att besöka orten tack vare järnvägen. Under järnvägsbyggandets guldålder för drygt 100 år sedan kunde orter få en enorm tillväxt tack vara den nya förbindelsen ochThe places close to where a new railway line and new stations are established, are hugely affected by the arrival of this new mode of transportation. New possibilities to travel further in the same time as before, or the same distance in half the time, significantly increases the opportunities for both commuting and for visiting places. Historically, new villages or even towns have sprung up as
My master thesis project is an approach to define physical and societal boundaries and barriers in architecture for mental health, both concerning public space and the building itself. The typology Diagnest's aim is to reduce stigma in mental health, by providing "nests" for all groups of the society. I researched various projects by known architects to challenge myself in the proces
Overheating in buildings is a growing public health hazard becoming more prevalent with climate change. The research aimed to analyse how interactions between jurisdictional scales, urban stakeholders and policies promoting synergies affect adaptation processes in cities using overheating policies in London as an example. Understanding how these interactions affect policy implementation can ensure
Achieving constitutional amendment has been a goal for the Japanese conservatives for a long time, especially after the Cold War, because Japan’s peace identity has been perceived increasingly “abnormal” by the conservative elites in Japan. It thus engendered the heated debates surrounding whether Japan should change its peace identity via controversial constitutional amendment, which conflicts ag
The decay of solutions to the Klein-Gordon equation is studied in two expanding cosmological spacetimes, namely (1) the de Sitter universe in flat Friedmann-Lemaitre-Robertson-Walker (FLRW) form, and (2) the cosmological region of the Reissner-Nordström-de Sitter (RNdS) model. Using energy methods, for initial data with finite higher order energies, bounds on the decay rates of the solution are ob
Syftet med studien är att undersöka hur kontrollmodellen har tolkats och tillämpats i praktiken inom fastighetsbranschen, utifrån de teoretiska perspektiven kring principbaserade standarder. Vidare ämnar studien analysera huruvida utfallet har bidragit till en mer jämförbar och konsekvent intäktsredovisning. Den forskningsstrategi som använts i denna studie är av kvalitativ karaktär. För att besva
Stickiness between materials can be a challening task when dealing with the complex interactions and processes related to packaging engineering. Part of the problem is that many factors like temperature, pressure, surface treatment as well as surface roughness all could play a part in contributing to the stickiness between materials. In this thesis a literature study has been done to map out poten
OPCPA stands for optical parametric chirped-pulse amplification. It is a nonlinear method for amplifying broadband laser beams. The spatial properties of the output of the laser beam depends on the amplification method itself and the broadband configuration. The phase matching in this method causes the different wavelengths in the broadband to have different angular dispersions. In order to inves
We are constantly interacting with UI/UX in different shapes, forms or applications, which is very important especially when using electronic interfaces. Therefore, we need to design well-thought-out and user-friendly interfaces that elevate the user’s experience. When it comes to fantasy sports games, statistics is a big factor for understanding fantasy sport which might be at most times overwhel
“Choice blindness” (CB) refers to a certain tendency to accept a choice that is presented to us as if it were our own, even when we have never made it. In the last decade, CB has been treated as a research tool in a series of experiments in different domains and modalities (e.g. Johansson et al. 2005, 2008; Hall et al. 2010, 2013; Sagana et. al 2014; Cochran et al. 2016) in order to study the rela
