The layered series is host to the reef-type mineralization called Rometölväs Reef, and the marginal series contains contact-type mineralization. This MSc-project, besides gi

Idealet och verkligheten : den skånska lokaljournalistiken

Informationsspridare, granskare av makten eller förutsättningen för den fria åsiktsbildningen är nyckelbegrepp som ofta beskriver lokaljournalistiken (Nord och Strömbäck 2012:17).

Uppsatsen undersöker vad som formar lokaljournalistik enligt fyra skånska journalister.Vi har intervjuat f

The Weave - An Investigation into the Intersection of Craft and 3D-printing

This project is a proposal for structural construction through fabrication and assembly of 3D-printed ceramic bricks developed side by side with a metaphysical investigation into the potential to express the living nature of matter through its material and formal attributes. Through an explorative process in the intersection of craft and digital fabrication, we have developed a system for LDM extr

Trollkarlarna från Oz. Källtexttrogenhet och läsbarhet i fyra svenska versioner av en barnboksklassiker

I den här uppsatsen presenteras en undersökning av tre översättningar och en moderniserad bearbetning av den amerikanska barnboksklassikern Trollkarlen från Oz av L. Frank Baum.

Subsurface characterization of the Lund Sandstone – 3D model of the sandstone reservoir and evaluation of the geoenergy storage potential, SW Skåne, south Sweden-merged

In order to decrease the dependence on fossil fuels it is of paramount importance that renewable sources are used as effectively as possible. Therefore it is necessary to store excess energy when supply is higher than de-mand. One way to do so is by storing the energy as compressed air in a porous aquifer. The Lund Sandstone in the Kyrkheddinge area, Skåne, southern Sweden, has previously been inv

Determinants of immigration intentions: a special focus on international students

Compilation and evaluation of validations of computer codes for spent nuclear fuel – a review

Mot ett säkrare slutförvar för framtida generationer En förutsättning för att det kommande slutförvaret för använt kärnbränsle ska fylla sin uppgift är att alla barriärer som ska förhindra att radioaktivitet läcker ut till omgivningen fungerar under mycket lång tid. En av de viktigaste barriärerna är bentonitleran som ska omge det inkapslade bränslet. Den viktigaste egenskapen hos leran är att denThis report describes a systematic review regarding validations of calculations by measurements of isotopic compositions, or decay heat, on spent nuclear fuel, SNF. 15 relevant or otherwise interesting studies, were found. Two reports were chosen among the found studies and analyzed. One of the studies described validations made with experimental data from measurements of isotopic compositions on

Ungdomars syn på urbana grönområden, samt deras påverkan på ungas hälsa.- En fallstudie av ungdomar i Helsingborg stad

Urbana grönområden – Ungdomars uppfattning och upplevelser? Att bo i ett vacker och varierat område med mycket grönska och liv är väl något som de flesta eftersträvar i någon form? Men på grund av ett ökat invånarantal bebyggs allt fler grönområden, alltså obebyggd mark, och minskar i antal. Det inte många vet är att dessa områden har stor betydelse för både biologisk mångfald, men även för folksThe human population steadily increases all over the globe and around half of the world’s inhabitant lives in cities.
