Hållbarhetsstudie av morot genom kvalitetsundersökning

Problembeskrivning: Bearbetade grönsaker kan vara problematiskt då grönsakens förmåga att hålla vatten och näringsämnen förändras med tiden. Det naturliga skyddet mot angrepp från mikroorganismer skadas även det. När man skär eller skadar grönsaker på något sätt så öppnas fler ytor upp för mikroorganismer att ta sig in på och hitta näring för att föröka sig. Men det är inte den enda nackdelen med

Assessing indoor environmental quality and occupant comfort in modern wood buildings with post-occupancy evaluation and building performance simulation

The European building sector is a source of significant negative environmental impacts, and large part of its carbon emissions can be attributed to heating, cooling and lighting of buildings – in other words, regulating buildings’ indoor environments. As people spend most of their lives indoors, there is a great challenge to create comfortable indoor environments, while also striving for further e

The Discourse of Violence, Persecution of Sexual Culture and Criminal Convictions of Sadomasochism

How sexual consent is evidence and operationalised in criminal courts affect not only sexual rights but also the implementation of social justice. While sexual consent is regarded as a protocol of agreement in vernacular practices, the legal definition is seemingly more complicated than a mutual agreement. There is very little research looking into the limits of sexual consent imposed by legal aut

Carbon Abundance in the Milky Way Galaxy

Carbon is the fourth most abundant element after hydrogen, helium and oxygen. It is a product of stellar nucleosynthesis as well as it being an important bio signature for life; this makes the analysis of carbon very fundamental. The origin of carbon and the relative contributions from massive and low-to-intermediate mass stars in producing it is still under debate. The principal focus of this the

Fitting the pion and kaon mass and decay constant to lattice data

Kvantelektrodynamik beskriver den elektromagnetiska kraften mellan elektroner och protoner, och är en av fysikens mest lyckade teorier. Till skillnad från elektroner, så är protoner inte fundamentala partiklar, utan de är uppbyggda av mindre partiklar som kallas för kvarkar. Kvarkarna inuti protonen binds inte ihop av den elektromagnetiska kraften, utan istället genom en annan kraft som kallas föWe use lattice QCD data to perform a fit of the pion and kaon mass and decay constant to next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) in three-flavor Chiral Perturbation Theory (ChPT). To improve our fits, we make use of finite volume corrections at both one- and two-loop order. This turns out to provide a small but noticeable improvement of our fits. Our fits see a significant improvement with the inclus

The impact of social financing scale on stock price -- Based on the perspective of industry research

Abstract This thesis first analyzes the direct and indirect effects of social financing scale on the stock market based on reviewing and summarizing the existing research. Then, studies on the different effects of social financing scale on different industries from the perspective of industry characteristics are also conducted. An autoregressive model is built using the social financing scale data

The Function of Arbitral Tribunals in the Development of Human Rights Obligations of the Investors

What is often more important in the international investment agreements between a private investor and the host country is to ensure the investors' economic security in the host country. However, recently, one of the concerns in most of these agreements is human rights. Then one of the host country's obligations is the observance of human rights obligations. The problem is that investors a

Can you resist being cynical? A case study of cynicism and resistance towards employee development

This paper examines the ‘why’ and ‘how’ of cynical perceptions towards employee development through qualitative research. Based on a case study, data were gathered through 25 semi-structured interviews with both managers and subordinates at a company within the telecommunication industry. The empirical findings have been studied using the literature topics of strategic human resource management, n

"Out of sight.... Out of mind" How employees made sense of organisational changes resulting from crisis management

Abstract Purpose - The purpose of this study is to gain a deeper understanding of how employees, of the London Hilton on Park Lane hotel, make sense of organisational changes resulting from crisis management during the Covid-19 pandemic. We aim to contribute to the existing literature within the field of change and crisis management and build on Weick’s (1995) concept of sensemaking. Therefore, ou

The Milky Way and its Exoplanets

Our Solar System is not the only planetary system in the universe. Since the first detected planet orbiting a star other than the Sun, over 4000 exoplanets have been detected. These exoplanets live in systems with an incredible diversity. The systems can include single, giant planets orbiting very close to the star, or they can have multiple planets packed tightly together. What is causing these dThe detections of over 4000 exoplanets as of today has shown that they exist in a wide range of different configurations, otherwise known as architectures. Recently, studies have been made trying to link the environment of host stars to the architectures of their planetary systems and have found that the architectures of planetary systems may not necessarily be uniform in the Milky Way. Since effe

Relationen mellan det teoretiska handlingsutrymmet och det praktiska arbetet inom ett antal HVB för barn och unga

Infiltrated Neighborhood - Climate Adaptive Urbanism in Bangkok

Under the rapid urbanization of Bangkok, the water town on a floodplain, has changed into a jungle concrete of high-rise buildings and road structure that has adopted from the West but does not cope with the water-related traditional way of living of the Thai people. Consequently, Bangkok has been facing more frequent and more severe impact of urban flooding while people neglected and forgot their

Från anonym till androgyn: En kvalitativ studie om varumärkesgenus och androgynitet i varumärkeskommunikation

Traditionella binära könsstereotyper utmanas idag allt mer av könsöverskridande uttryck i ett pågående globalt samhällsskifte som i synnerhet märks av i Sverige. Parallellt med detta samhällsskifte utmanas även tidigare forskning i hur varumärken kommunicerar könsuttryck, vilket möjliggör för ett ökat antal varumärkesgenuspositioner. Trots att en androgyn genusposition beskrivs som mest gynnsam ärTraditional binary gender stereotypes are increasingly being challenged by gender fluid expressions in an ongoing global societal shift that is particularly noticeable in Sweden. Parallel with this societal change, previous research on how brands communicate gender expressions is also being challenged, which enables an increased number of brand gender positions. Although an androgynous brand gende

Vem bär ansvaret? Individen eller organisationen? Offentliga myndigheters kriskommunikation

Denna studie syftar till att bidra till förståelsen hur organisationer inom den offentliga sektorn använder kommunikation för att reparera och återuppbygga förtroende, och för att förstå vilka typer av strategier de nyttjar för det ändamålet. För att uppnå detta har en kvalitativ analys av Myndigheten för samhällsskydd och beredskap kommunikation under covid-19-krisen och myndighetens interna krisThe aim of this study is to contribute to the understanding of how organizations in the public sector use communication to repair and rebuild reputation, and to understand what kinds of strategies that they use for that purpose. To achieve this an analysis of the Swedish Civil Contingencies Agency’s communication during the covid-19 crisis and the agency's internal crisis at the end of 2020 an

Den vägledande kommunikationen: En studie om Inbound Marketings potentiella värde i offentliga organisationer

Digitaliseringen och framväxten av internet har inneburit stora förändringar i hur organisationer kommunicerar externt, och forskning indikerade att nya digitala marknadsföringsstrategier som Inbound Marketing hade en ökad effektivitet hos privata företag till följd av det nya digitala landskapet. Trots detta fanns inga tidigare studier kring strategins potentiella värde för offentliga organisatioThe digitalization and rise of the internet have led to major changes in how organizations communicate externally, and research indicated that new digital marketing strategies such as Inbound Marketing had an increased effectiveness in private companies as a result of the new digital landscape. Despite this, there were no previous studies on the potential value of the strategy for public organizat

Distansarbete och digitala nomader - En utredning av beskattningskonsekvenser av det estländska e-medborgarskapet

Digitala nomader är personer som genom distansarbete och digitala kommunikationsmedel skapar sig geografisk frihet och flexibilitet. Arbetssättet gör att personen i princip kan arbeta platsoberoende så länge en internetuppkoppling finns. Distansarbete är en ökande trend i samhället. År 2014 införde till exempel Estland ett digitalt e-medborgarskap, och blev först ut i världen med att erbjuda ett sDigital nomads are people who create geographical freedom and flexibility through teleworking and digital means of communication. The working method means that the person can, in principle, work independently as long as there is an internet connection. Teleworking is a growing trend in society, and, for example, Estonia introduced a digital e-citizenship in 2014 and became the first in the world t
