Materialet består av intervjuer, delta-gande observation, frågelistor och internetbaserad etnografi som samlats in och analyserats genom en fenomenolThis thesis in applied cultural analysis investigate the phenomenon of “kafferep” (coffee par-ty), a Swedish term that is usually described as a social gathering where women meet in the home to drink coffee, eat cookies and cake, and talk. A gathering commonly popular in the late 19th century that today has been revitalized, where young women dress up in 50’s clothes and perform their idea of the

The automotive industry is continuously striving for reduced development cost, time to market and high quality on their products to remain market leader. This is achieved by constantly developing their simulation methods in order to attain more accurate simulation results and include more aspects of the complexity when developing a vehicle such as durability, vehicle dynamics and comfort. This th

Abstract Objectives: Serum from patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is often characterized by their ability to promote phagocytosis of necrotic cell (NC) by polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs). The aim of this project was to study phagocytosis of NC by PMNs in presence of serum from SLE patients, and associate the ability of phagocytosis with circulating nucleosomes and autoantibodi

Abstract Habitat complexity is shown to be an important driver of invertebrate diversity on impacted coral reefs when the diversity supported by a comparative unit of habitat complexity is compared to that of a pristine coral reef. The more structurally complex pristine reef does not support the conventionally expected greatest amount of diversity, instead an upper limit threshold to habitat comp

European marriage rates have been steadily declining since the 1960's, a part of the second demographic transition largely attributed to the individualization of values. In 1998, Swedish marriage rates reversed into an incline, surpassing the European average in 2004. This reverse is particularly interesting as Sweden has been an international forerunner in the second demographic transition si

Broad public contention against nuclear energy can be observed as a new phenomenon in Japanese society after the 2011 Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant accident. This study aimed to detect an ample explanation about why the emergence of such a protest movement did only occur after the direct experience of a critical event and did not happen before. Discrediting a sole and simple grievance-base

The importance of food on achieving sustainability has been a topic increasingly moved to the forefront of the international debate. Thus, governments from around the globe have developed and adopted comprehensive food policies aiming at sustainable development. As part of this, public procurement has been identified as a powerful tool leveraging government’s purchasing power and holding an intere

Power grids worldwide are expanding not only driven by ambitious clean energy, but also because of the rising need for reliable energy. Key components of these power grids are transformers. Transformers are traditionally filled with mineral oil, to serve as a coolant and dielectric insulator. Now globally a rising trend is observed towards the adoption of less flammable, biodegradable transformer

Teamutvecklingsarbete är idag ett viktigt område inom organisationsutveckling, med en växande uppsjö av forskningsteori. Emellertid råder oro inom forskarvärlden huruvida teamutvecklingspraktiker använder sig av aktuell och tillförlitlig forskning, samt huruvida de tillämpar denna på rätt sätt. Syftet med denna studie är att undersöka hur praktiker förhöll sig till aktuell forskning om teamutveckl

With today’s big market of smartphones and tablets, computers are no longer the only device with a web browser. As a result of this more and more web pages are designed to adjust to the size and resolution available for a specific device. When a web page adjusts like this it is called responsive web design. E-commerce via computer has been around for a while and is now used by many for their every

The prevalence of otitis media with effusion (OME) is much higher in infants born with cleft lip and/or palate (CLP) than without CLP. It would be interesting to know if the related hearing thresholds are poorer in infants with CLP than without, which could have a possible impact on the early development of hearing, communication and speech. The aim of the study was therefore to investigate the ea
