The study also sheds light on how these perceptions can be understood from a feminist

The growing importance of achieving high productivity in the manufacturing industry leads to the necessity for applying high machining parameters and cutting speeds. However, the presence of self-excited vibrations of the tool shaft and workpiece under these conditions would result in undesirable surface roughness and surface integrity of the product. Thus, it is vital to study the damping mechani

Biståndshandläggare inom äldreomsorgen möter ibland äldre personer som lider av en demenssjukdom. Lagstiftningar och riktlinjer för hur arbetet med demenssjuka ska bedrivas är vaga och delvis motstridiga. Å ena sidan beskrivs vikten av självbestämmande i lagstiftningen och å andra sidan har biståndshandläggare ett ansvar att se till att ingen äldre kommer till skada eller självförsummar sig. Syfte

Although transnational corporations (hereinafter TNCs) often far outmatch States in terms of resources and influence over the direction of the world economy, they are generally unaccounted for when operating outside the territories in which they are incorporated (hereinafter ‘home States’). This thesis will look specifically at those TNCs that rely on natural resource extraction as their main sour

Polymers have existed in the manufacturing scenario for a long time now. However, the surprising part is that the data for metal cutting is still being incorporated for machining of polymers. Polymers are often machined using the tools on the data available for soft materials like aluminum. There is little research done in the domain of machinability of polymers to find out the best cutting combin

Recent studies have highlighted how building resilience to ‘shrinking’ episodes, as opposed to increasing growth rates, appears to be the missing piece of the puzzle when it comes to between-country income convergence. All economies seem to be able to grow, but few countries have been able to drastically improve their shrinking patterns, which has underpinned the divergence often argued in literat

Den bild som målas upp av den svenska skogen är ljus. Skogsbruket sägs vara både hållbart och klimatsmart. Vid första anblick verkar bilden också stämma. Eller? Skogen är om omdebatterat territorium. Börjar man skrapa på ytan märker man att mycket av bilden lämnas utanför. Dagens skogsbruk är långt ifrån så ljus som skogsindustrin, och till viss del politiken, vill få det att verka. En allt mer esThe Swedish forestry sector has been dominated by clear-cutting methods for many decades and wood production has been of great importance for the economic development. Forests and its social values have also formed an important basis for the country’s identity with its recreation opportunities. Societal demands on forests are however many and increasing with an escalating climate crisis and the ne

Prediction of flood and evaluation of the impact of climate change in a catchment needs to be correctly estimated, which can be accomplished by hydrological modelling in HEC-HMS. In this paper, the objectives were to gain an understanding of the rainfall-runoff process and estimate the flood frequency curve in the Kävlinge River Basin. However, due to the complexity of a catchment, models should b
