The autobiographies written in French by the migrant writers Akira Mizubayashi, of Japanese origin, and Andrei Makine, of Siberian origin, will be examined in this essay with particular focus on the authors’ reflections on the acquisition of a foreign language and the dual linguistic affiliation in relation to identity shaping.
This thesis is about how to create architectural spaces in a not-too-distant future where new regulations demand better heat insulation in buildings and the implications that will bring to the building industry. Rather than worrying about how to deal with thicker walls and smaller windows, this thesis is trying to find new ways of designing buildings that enable us to continue having the possibili
The aim of this study is to get a deeper understanding of ESL learners’ anxiety when speaking in a learning context and how teachers can help their students overcome FLSA. This study seeks to investigate the causes of FLA that the participants may experience when learning English. The study also investigates what teachers can do to reduce learners’ anxiety of speaking a L2. To do this, interviews
CellaVision develops automated microscopy for blood analysis. Their products can pre-classify 19 different types of white blood cells and support the medical technologist performing the final classification. CellaVision provides reference cells. The reference cells are a fixed set of cells handpicked by a technologist, chosen to be typical for that specific class. The reference cells are static, i
Den här studiens syfte var att undersöka eventuella effekter av interaktioner mellan visuella preferenser (object imagery och spatial imagery) och korrekt eller inkorrekt minnesåterkallning till följd av missledande information. Ett webbaserat experiment i enlighet med misinformation paradigm användes där deltagarna fick se en filmsekvens som skildrade ett brott, läsa antingen en korrekt sammanfatThis study investigated possible effects on interaction between imagery and misinformation on memory accuracy and recall of misinformation. The subjects participated in an online experiment which followed the misinformation paradigm where they watched a film which showed a crime scene, read a summary which either included a correct summary of the film, incorrect summary which had misleading decrip
Det fins en önskan om fullständigt automatiserade nedströmsprocesser i framställandet av proteiner för läkemedelsbruk. En del av nedströmsprocessen är preparativ kromatografi. En god separation mellan produkt och andra proteiner, samt god produktivitet, är av intresse. På grund att kromatografisk separation ofta körs satsvis så skulle en iterative learning controller (ILC) vara ett bra val för attThere is a desire for a fully automated downstream process in pharmaceutical protein production. One part of the downstreaming process is preparative chromatography. A good separation between the product and other proteins, as well as good productivity, are desired. Due to the batch nature of chromatographic separation, an iterative learning controller (ILC) could be a suitable choice for achievin
Sammanfattning Jordens befolkning förväntas öka de kommande årtiondena. Detta kan skapa osäkerhet kring livsmedelsförsörjning och kräver en mer produktiv livsmedelssektor samt metoder för att bedöma tillgång på livsmedel i förhållande till efterfrågan. Utvecklandet av lågkostnadsmetoder för övervakning av grödor kan stödja en hållbar intensifiering av jordbruket och tillhandahålla användbar inforAbstract The population of earth is projected to increase the coming decades. This can pose problems of food security and demands a more productive food sector as well as methods of assessing food productivity in relation to demand. Crop monitoring with remote sensing can guide precision farming used for sustainable intensification of agriculture, as well as contribute to yield forecasting models
Värmebehov är beroende av rådande temperatur och väder samt kunders förbrukningsmönster. Detta ger upphov till varierande fjärrvärmelast och en konsekvent mer komplicerad värmeproduktion. Denna studie har undersökt potentialen för laststyrning, då byggnader utnyttjas som värmelager under kortare tid. Arbetet har fokuserat på modellering och utveckling av styrregler för laststyrningsmodellen samt iHeat load is dependent on outside temperature and weather as well as consumer habits. This leads to a variation in heat load and consequently a more complicated production. This study investigated the potential of demand side management, using load shifting and utilizing buildings for thermal storage. The work focused on modelling and developing operating conditions as well as implementation in di
This paper aims to examine how nine adopted women, through an article series published in a feminist journal in South Korea, articulate alternative narratives to and thereby resistance towards the normative structures and narratives that exist surrounding adoption, by presenting stories and analyses from lived experience. These alternative stories are analysed through the term reculturation. Four
Min studie har fokuserat på relationerna mellan territorier som produceras på Möllevångstorget och dess temporala aspekter. Jag undersökte därmed hur en territoriellt komplex plats fungerar och hur territorier produceras men argumenterar också för att komplexiteten är en viktig beståndsdel i offentlighet. Studien är gjord utifrån min personliga relation till platsen.
In May 2019, Ikea group in Poland posted an article in the intranet regarding LGBT-movement, encouraging the employees to support the LGBT+ community by participating in the celebration the company was about to host. A religious employee, with the pseudonym Tomasz K., chose to show his disapproval by posting a comment to the article. He cited the bible which stated what destiny awaits homosexual p
Humans spend 90% of their times indoors, and maintaining a pleasant indoor environment is essential. Factors like human behaviour, combustion sources, cleaning supplies, affect the indoor environment, which could potentially affect the human health.the most common answer to controlling the indoor environment is a good HVAC system. Ventilation systems with supply and exhaust are not standard in res
This Master’s thesis deals with the representation of the Sami people in two swedish regional archives in archival material from the 20th century until now. In the content analysis, I notice if the archive holder belongs to the Sami minority or not, in which context the Sami minority appears in the archives, and to which extent the negative label ”lapp” appears. I have examined 255 volumes in Nati
Det här arbetet handlar om hur jag som organist kan använda mig av populärmusik på orgelkonserter för att väcka människors intresse för orgelmusik. I samband med en konsert som byggde på människors önskningar av musik, undersökte jag, med hjälp av en enkät, hur deras intresse förändrades. Jag upptäckte att publikens intresse ökade av att jag breddade min repertoar och att jag själv uppskattade en This study is regarding how I can enhance the audience’s interest in organ music by playing peoples favourite music. After requesting wishes from people, I played a recital based on their answers and at the end the audience answered a questionnaire about their interest in organ music. I found out that their interest was enhanced by this kind of recital and I appreciated the improved audience commu
The aim of this thesis is to contribute to the theological discussion of heteronormative structures in the Church of Sweden. Specifically, the purpose is to examine how the Trinity is described in the High Mass in the proposal for the Book of Worship of the Church of Sweden, from a queer theological perspective. The questions asked are: What patriarchal and heteronormative structures exist in the
A fundamental question in aging research is if the human lifespan has reached its maximum, as it has practical implications and affects the sustainability of our societies and health care systems. This thesis uses methods and techniques from extreme value theory to study human lifespan at extreme age, in particular the age at death of the world’s oldest person (WOP) titleholders. Our study is a co
