Lakvatten läcker ut mikroplast Effekterna av mikroplaster är ännu inte helt utredda och därför kan de vara mycket farligare än vad vi vet idag. Plastpartiklarna kan finnas överallt i miljön och en hittills outforskad spridningskälla är deponier och dess lakvatten. Det har inte undgått allmänheten att större plastskräp, det vill säga makroplaster, både förfular samt förstör natur och miljö. MindrAlthough most microplastics (

This paper analyzes the effect of overlapping Trade blocs on Trade Facilitation. Using the time, documents and costs incurred as trade facilitation indicators, simulations show interesting yet important effects of an increase in Regional Trade Agreements on trade costs. The results suggest that when it comes to increasing regional trade agreements by 1%, costs are associated with an increase via t

Horse flies and other biting Diptera are not only annoying pests, but can inflict numerous diseases on the people and animals they bite. Studies in recent years have shown horse flies are less attracted to striped surfaces, providing evidential support that zebra stripes have evolved as biting fly protection. The Omo River Valley tribes in the historical zebra range of southwest Ethiopia regularly

This study uses an intersectional approach to examine and understand how different social and cultural norms impact women’s agency when choosing infant feeding practice. The study wishes to broaden the debate on how women can succeed with breastfeeding or the infant feeding practice of her choice and decrease harmful premature introduction of solids such as Nestum®. Data was collected via group a

En av cykelns största fördelar, förutom att den bidrar till ett hållbart transportsystem, är att den är snabb och smidig att använda. Biltrafikens köer eller kollektivtrafikens tidtabeller påverkar sällan cykelns möjligheter att ta sig fram. Trots att cykeln är gjord för att vara i rörelse står den parkerad större delen av tiden. I examensarbetet ”Cykelparkering vid bostaden – En studie av MalmöcyThe purpose of this thesis is to investigate the needs and preferences of cyclists when it comes to bicycle parking at the residence. Although knowledge of bicycle traffic is growing and the Swedish Transport Administration states that bicycle traffic needs to be emphasized, the importance of bicycle parking is often overlooked, especially in residential areas. This thesis shows that good bicycle

This thesis evaluates the success of a fundamental investing strategy on the Swedish stock market between 2004 and 2016. The main purpose is to examine if the F_Score system developed by Piotroski (2000) could be used to identify winners and losers during aforementioned time frame. A lot of research has previously been conducted on the topic of fundamental investing and some focusing on F_Score. T

Tryckmätningar underlättas ifall sensorn som används har kontakt med mediet, eller om där är ett membran mellan. Detta projekt har undersökt ifall man kan komma runt det och använda en kraftsensor på utsidan av en PVC-slang för att uppskatta trycket inuti.In peritoneal dialysis it is important to make sure the pressure doesn't exceed certain limits. It is desirable to do the measuring without inserting anything inside of the tubing containing the dialysate. This project uses a load cell pressed against the outside of the PVC tubing to estimate the pressure inside. The interval tested is approximately atmospheric pressure +- 220 mBar. The temper

Although written during different centuries, both Charlotte Brontë’s Jane Eyre and J.K Rowling’s Harry Potter books follow the protagonist’s journeys from childhood to adulthood, which is why they are both often described as novels of development. This essay therefore aims to compare the protagonists’ development, looking at the differences and similarities which can be found when analysing them a

De senaste åren har svensk transvård varit ämne för skarp kritik från såväl enskilda transpersoner som organisationer engagerade i transfrågor. Hösten 2017 publicerade Transgender Europe en omfattande internationell rapport som visar på betydande skillnader mellan patienters och vårdgivares uppfattning av den vård som erbjuds transpersoner i bland annat Sverige. Förutom i denna rapport har det docA large-scale international report recently published by Transgender Europe shows great discrepancy between the patients’ and the caregivers’ views on transgender care. Apart from this report, those working in transgender care have yet to make their voices heard. However, transgender individuals as well as organizations working with issues of the transgender and queer communities in Sweden have be

After the discovery of graphene in 2004, a single layer of graphite, the assembly of 2D materials became a promising research area in solid state Physics. This thesis explores fabrication of 2D-heterostructures that aim to probe into graphene’s electronic structure with the Tunneling Field Effect Transistor (TFET). In the fabrication process, we used mechanical exfoliation to obtain monolayer gra

Syfte: Syftet med denna uppsats är öka förståelsen för vad som bidrar till ett högt organisatoriskt engagemang hos medarbetare. Metod: En kvalitativ fallstudie på företaget Carl F. Datainsamling har primärt genomförts genom semistrukturerade intervjuer och det analytiska ramverket som har använts är kategorisk reducering genom ett tolkande synsätt. Teoretiskt perspektiv: Studien utgår från Meyer

The Crevice - A theater in the open air on the coast of Portugal strives to prove a link between man made and natural formations. I marvel why the development of our human civilization keeps being branded as artificial with a negative connotation. I believe our built habitat is commonly considered somewhat less natural than bird’s neatly constructed nests or polar bears burrowing into snow and r

Sammanfattning Bakgrund och problematisering I takt med den ökade globaliseringen har fenomenet intellektuellt kapital blivit en betydelsefull faktor för att ett företag ska bli konkurrenskraftigt. Detta har resulterat i att mätning av det intellektuella kapitalet blivit av stor vikt. Hur relationen mellan intellektuellt kapital, prestationsmätning och värdeskapande och hör ihop och påverkar vara

Over the last ten years young people Not in Education, Employment or Training (NEET) in Sweden have increased from three to almost sixteen percent. During the same period, decentralization of active labour market programs from central to local governments have been implemented. Consequently, since 2005 Swedish municipalities have a statutory obligation to offer young people in NEET appropriate sup

In dubio contra stipulatorem is an old rule with roots in the Roman law. It has been the subject of much literature and the authors do not always agree with one another. Quite the contrary, the authors tend to disagree fairly frequently on the matter. The common interpretation, however, seems to that it, at all, the rule should apply it should apply when there is no other data of interpretation av

Fysiska förändringar i redan bebyggda områden har i vissa fall visat sig vara problematiskt, inte minst med hänsyn till påverkan på det sociala livet. För att möta behovet av den ökade befolkningen i Sverige idag är förtätning ett alternativ för att inte ta värdefull mark i anspråk, vilket innebär att det byggs tätare och högre i redan bebyggda områden. Vid sådana fysiska förändringar är det därföWith the need for housing in Sweden high and steadily growing, there is now more emphasis than before on urban expansion in cities. Built areas consist of social relationships, structures and contacts which can be described as social risks when they lead to negative effects. Social effects are altered by changes in the physical environment, which is why it is essential to properly plan out these e

Background Activity-Based Costing is a costing method arisen in 1980’s as a response to changed cost structures. As business had become less labour intensive, Kaplan and Johnson argued that the traditional management accounting methods, using direct labour as cost base, were out-dated. Instead, Activity-Based Costing is based on the costs for the activities that the products require. The methodolo
