Over the years, flight safety has improved through reliable automated systems, but accidents still occur where pilots are faced with unexpected technical malfunctions without previous training. This thesis aimed to investigate possible ways to develop evidence-based training further to prepare pilots for managing unexpected events by identifying resilient promoting strategies applicable in daily f

Denna uppsats rör frågan om avtalsmekanismen och avtalstolkning i förhållande till smarta kontrakt. Smarta kontrakt är datorprogram som laddas upp på en blockkedja i syfte att utföra någon form av transaktion mellan en eller flera parter. Genom att ladda upp de smarta kontrakten på en blockkedja, blir de omöjligt att ändra på i efterhand, vilket säkerställer att de exekverar. På så vis är det möjlIn this essay I discuss contract formation and contract interpretation with regards to smart contracts. Smart contracts are computer programs inserted on a blockchain, with the purpose of facilitating an exchange of digital goods between the parties. Blockchain technology is used to store smart contracts in order to imbue the smart contract with several useful qualities for contracting in a trustl

This study seeks to understand and explain why Sweden and Finland voted differently in the Council of the European Union on the proposal of a minimum wage directive. The two countries share a labor market system, based in collective bargaining and important roles for trade unions and employer organizations, without a legally set minimum wage. At the time, the two countries hade ideologically simil

Denna studie fokuserar på hur online-aktivister reagerar på den censur som påtvingas dem av sociala medieplattformar och hur dessa reaktioner formar deras svar på censuren. Studien genomförs genom en kvalitativ intervjustudie av hur svenska individer som förespråkar Palestina online upplever och hanterar digital censur på Metas sociala medieplattformar. Studien visar att censur både undertrycker This thesis focuses on how online activists react to online censorship imposed onto them by social media platforms and how the reactions shape the activists’ responses to the censorship. It does so by deploying a qualitative interview study design onto how Swedish individuals who advocate for Palestine online experience and respond to digital censorship on Meta’s social media platforms. In the st

Uppsatsen syftar dels till att genom jämförelse mellan privat- och offentlig sektor klargöra kritikrättens gränser, det vill säga när en arbetstagares kritik mot arbetsgivaren övergår till illojalitet, dels till att klargöra hur gränsdragningen ser ut mellan att vara lojal respektive illojal. Vidare kommer uppsatsen att utreda under vilka omständigheter det föreligger sakliga skäl för uppsägning, The purpose of this thesis is to clarify the boundaries of the right to criticize an employer and to compare this right between the private and public sectors. It includes determining when an employee's criticism of their employer crosses into disloyalty. The thesis also aims to define the distinction between loyalty and disloyalty and to examine the circumstances under which valid grounds for

Since the 1990s, vigorous debate concerning a number of key issues has taken place within the study of Chinese nationalism. Scholars have tended to differentiate between diverse types of nationalism. For example, many studies distinguish between a malign nationalism on the one hand and a benign patriotism on the other. The strongest evidence for such a distinction can be found in survey research,

We present in detail a method we recently introduced [Phys. Rev. Lett. 103, 176404 (2009)] to describe finite systems in and out of equilibrium, where the evolution in time is performed via the Kadanoff-Baym equations within many-body perturbation theory. Our systems consist of small, strongly correlated clusters, described by a Hubbard Hamiltonian within the Hartree-Fock, second Born, GW, and T-m

Context: The dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor, vildagliptin, inhibits glucagon secretion at hyperglycemia but appears to enhance glucagon counterregulation during hypoglycemia in type 2 diabetes.Objective:The objective of the investigation was to study whether vildagliptin also improves α-cell function in type 1 diabetes (T1D). Patients and Methods: The study was a single-center, double-blind, ra

Succinate:quinone oxidoreductase (SQR) from Bacillus subtilis consists of two hydrophilic protein subunits comprising succinate dehydrogenase, and a di-heme membrane anchor protein harboring two putative quinone binding sites, Q(p) and Q(d). In this work we have used spectroelectrochemistry to study the electronic communication between purified SQR and a surface modified gold capillary electrode.

Vikings routinely crossed the North Atlantic without amagnetic compass and left their mark on lands as far away as Greenland, Newfoundland and Baffin Island. Based on an eleventh-century dial fragment artefact, found at Uunartoq in Greenland, it is widely accepted that they sailed along chosen latitudes using primitive Sun compasses. Such instruments were tested on sea and proved to be efficient h

The thermal effects related to wearing headgear are complex and different studies have investigated single parts of this topic. This review aims at summarizing the different findings to give a complete overview on this topic as well as to suggest new perspectives. Headgear increases head insulation and therefore is mainly problematic under warm conditions, which is the focus of this review. Helmet

The aim of this study was to use case study approach to show educators that identities of immigrant students are complex, and a response to the dominant culture. The cases were four immigrant students in grades 8 to 10 in Iceland. Through interviews, and observations, data was gathered on how the students construct their identities in the school con-text, with a focus on teachers’ expectations. Th

Second homes, or summer cottages, are widely spread all over Finland. It is estimated that half of the country´s population have an access to one or several second homes. The phenomenon constitutes a remarkable part of how Finns spend their leisure time. Whereas traditional way of life attracts middle aged and retired urban dwellers to return to their roots, increasing number of second home users

This study examines the thoughts and expectations of social work students regarding their future career. In order to investigate this, a questionnaire was handed out to social work students (N=203) attending their final semester of the social work program (socionomprogrammet) at Göteborgs universitet, Högskolan i Jönköping, Högskolan i Kristianstad, Linnéuniversitetet and Malmö Högskola. The quest

Although Sweden collects and sorts a large share of plastic waste, a significant part of the separately collected plastic packaging waste is being incinerated and only 8 % of the plastic waste is being recycled into new products. As plastic is the main cause of greenhouse gas emissions from waste incineration, a systematic shift is needed to decrease incineration. Currently, Chemical recycling (CR

This thesis presents a numerical study of the emission of jets by a trapped Bose-Einstein Condensate (BEC). The Gross-Pitaevskii equation is used for the simulation of this phenomenon. When the scattering length of a trapped BEC is periodically modulated it emits jets of matter. We study how the pattern of these emitted jets changes when a BEC is trapped in a circular trap, an equilateral triangul

This thesis considers an investigation into the possibilities of creating a reasonably accurate multiscale material model for paperboard, with geometry based on X-ray scans of small paperboard samples. The modeling takes place in the software Multiscale Designer by Altair Engineering Inc. A representative volume element (RVE) is used to capture the X-ray geometry and represent macroscopic mechanic

This thesis discusses organizational communication in Sweden following a scandal. The communication is based on the period after the scandal has gained attention. The communication 2 is divided into formal and informal communication based on whether the organization or a third party controlled the channel of communication. The communication is analyzed through cases and takes into consideration th
