How do neighbourhoods affect life chances? This is a question that researchers have asked in different forms as early as the 50’s –and there is no shortage of papers exploring neighbourhood effects: how where we live affects our well-being or our participation in the labour market, our life expectancy or, in general, our life outcomes. Yet, there is less consensus than one would expect from a fiel
The ability to evaluate the geothermal potential at a depth of five to six kilometres in the crystalline bedrock is crucial for the EGS-technology to be utilized in the future. This work focuses primarily on presenting expected geological conditions at great depths in southwestern Scania. The study is based on information from E.ON’s deep drilling FFC-1 in Malmö and data and investigations of the
Syftet med studien är att undersöka hur kompositionsprocessen kan se ut för tre skånska kompositörer av instrumental jazzmusik. Studien utfördes genom individuella intervjuer. Samtliga informanter har skrivit längre svitliknande musik för stora ensembler. Hur relaterar deras musik och process till deras personliga bakgrund som kompositörer? Hur ser arbetsföljden ut när det gäller de olika momentenThe purpose of this study is to investigate how three professional jazz composers describe their process when composing instrumental jazz music. The study was carried out through interviews with three composers based in the south of Sweden, who had all composed extended suite-like pieces for large ensembles. How does their music and process relate to their personal background as composers? What is
The annual plastic production was over 400 million tonnes in 2023 and it is expected to keep growing over the years. The increasing use of fossil-based materials and problems regarding the environmental impact of plastic waste motivate the transition towards a circular economy. Interest in 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) has increased due to the possibility of being a biobased building block in the
The detailed use of Building Performance Simulation (BPS) tools to estimate the energy use and encourage energy savings solutions is vital in mitigating the energy use for buildings and the production of this energy. Furthermore, the design of energy-efficient and environmentally friendly buildings involves a collaborative effort among professionals in the Architecture, Engineering, and Constructi
Within the field of border studies, a common theoretical assumption is that national borders and national sentiments are interconnected. Some even argue that national boundaries are a precondition of national sentiments (Anderson & O'Dowd, 1999; Paasi, 1998 (b)). If one instead looks toward cross-border regions, an equally accepted theory is that national borders create regional asymmetrie
The purpose of this study was to illustrate how professionals within eldercare view domestic violence amongst elderly and how they view their own work regarding the subject. An emphasis was placed on capturing the professionals' thoughts and reflections about domestic violence amongst elderly as it provided a more profound understanding of the phenomenon and how it is worked with. We collected
The shortage of Earth’s limited resources is becoming more evident and our planet’s climate system is under immense pressure. To combat these problems, more people investigate the concept of circularity. This study intended to find out what make consumers motivated to buy used items from a professional refurbisher, thereby replacing purchases of brand-new products, and also identifying barriers.
Titel: WELL- certifieringen i praktiken Författare: Amanda Khouri & Mohammad Almushref Denna rapport analyserar WELL-certifieringen. Rapporten undersöker problemformuleringarna: Hur fungerar WELL- certifiering och vad baseras den på? Hur upplevs WELL- certifieringen hos brukare? Hur kan WELL- certifieringen anpassas för att passa det svenska samhället bättre? Inledningsvis beskrivs kort Title: WELL-certification in practice Authors: Amanda Khouri & Mohammad Almushref This report analyzes the WELL certification. The report examines the problem formulations: How does WELL certification work and what is it based on? How is WELL certification experienced by users? How can WELL certification be adapted to better suit Swedish society? Initially, the need for the certification i
Banker har ett stort ansvar att motverka penningtvätt och finansiering av terrorism. Trots det omfattande arbetet för att motverka penningtvätt, sker en stor andel ekonomiska brott där finansiella institut har en bidragande roll. Det kan bero på aktiva beslut hos banker för att bidra till ekonomisk vinning, men i många fall är det ett resultat av okunskap om hur företagen utnyttjas för kriminella Banks have a significant responsibility in counteracting money laundering and terrorist financing. Despite the comprehensive efforts in anti-money laundering activities, financial crimes are still commonplace and financial institutions have a contributing role. This involvement can be explained by banks making an active choice in participating for financial gains, but in many cases, banks are crim
Freshwater, obligate aerobic, Gram-negative bacterium Caulobacter crescentus strain CB2 is able to metabolise various types of carbon sources. In this degree project, growth characterization of C.crescentus was made on different substrates including glucose, xylose, and mannose using shake-flask cultivations and bioreactor experiments. Special emphasis was put on the xylose degradation pathway, th
The degree project described in this report also acts as a deliverable for a research project. The research project focuses on a new technique for the upgrading of biogas. This new technology uses a sterically hindered amine to absorb carbon dioxide from the biogas to raise its energy value. The amine used for this method is 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol or AMP. When absorb-ing carbon dioxide with t
Denna uppsats undersöker fem centrala aktörer kring händelserna mellan statskupp och antagandet av en ny regeringsform i Sverige 1809. I traditionell historieskrivning, främst förespråkad av Fredrik Lagerroth, har dessa händelser beskrivits som en revolution. Syftet med denna uppsats relaterar till forskningsproblemet och motsatsförhållandet mellan Sveriges ”revolution” 1809 och andra revolutioner
For someone who has undergone an amputation, it is important to be able to decide what the prosthesis should look like. Since many people today choose to have some sort of cover on their prosthesis, either to fill the void or to regain the feeling of a leg, it is very important that it is something that the user feels comfortable with. To go through an amputation is often a very shocking event
In the process of internationalization, Small and Medium enterprises (SME’s) will be confronted with various challenges when entering in developing markets, such as culture differences, localization issues and financial problems. The research is aimed at creating a market entry framework to capture the target population in emerging countries, particularly in the group of middle class, in order to
