En undersökning av Paul Bowles debutroman The Sheltering Sky utifrån filosofen Martin Heideggers tankar om existensens skarpskurna konturer, hämtade ur Sein und Ziet. Detta för att blotta romanens underliggande tendenser. Uppsatsen driver också en allmän diskussion om litteraturens och filosofins släktskap som pekar tillbaka till försokraterna och som kulminerar i 1900-talets idéhistoriska kuliss.

In this project particle production as a function of transverse momentum (\(p_{\rm T}\)) in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy (\(\sqrt{s}\)) of 7 TeV and 13 TeV has been studied. The transverse momentum is interesting to study since it reflects momentum created in the collision (before the collision, all momentum is in the beam - going in a longitudinal direction) and therefore g

In the near future, a new market will form full of 2nd life batteries that are no longer suitable to use in electric vehicles. This since their capacity retention is too low after a few years of usage, as a consequence of two aging mechanisms; cycling aging and calendar aging. These batteries can be put into good use as battery energy storage systems, as the energy density is not as an important f

This thesis examines the relationship between economic growth and sustainable wellbeing. It evaluates the ability of GDP per capita to capture a how efficiently a country delivers long, happy lives using the limited environmental resources available, as measured by the Happy Planet Index (HPI).

The purpose of this study is to elaborate on the role of self-leadership from a middle manager's perspective in HGFs in order to contribute valuable insights to existing literature and HGFs that practice self-leadership. A qualitative study with an abductive approach has been conducted. The empirical material has been gathered through eight semi-structured interviews with middle managers from

The purpose of this essay is to examine how users experience ‘dark pattern marketing’ from an ethical standpoint, and if it makes a difference if the users are aware of the phenomenon. ‘Dark pattern marketing’ is - in short terms - a marketing approach that applies a user interface that has been carefully crafted to trick and manipulate users into doing things they did not intend to do, or discour

Restvärme skapas i olika industriella processer och energin återvinns sällan. Detta beror till stor del på att investeringen i den teknik som omhändertar restvärmen samt infrastrukturen som är nödvändig för att sälja restvärmen kräver stora ekonomiska satsningar. I fjärde generationens fjärrvärme system kommer temperaturerna i nätet bli lägre vilket lättare möjliggör implementeringen av mer prisvä

The most widely used positioning system is Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS), which uses traditional positioning techniques and cannot achieve satisfactory positioning performance in indoor scenarios due to Non-Line-of-Sight (NLoS) transmission. Fingerprinting is a non-traditional positioning technique that is robust to NLoS transmission in indoor scenarios. Moreover, Applying Machine Lear

Sustaining ontological security is crucial to people in life transitions, without which they will be in bad mental conditions. Media scholars have focused on media roles in the everyday life of people in life transitions for years. However, they rarely dive into the topic from this perspective. Therefore, the first aim of this thesis is to fill this gap; and I will do it by investigating how gay n

Chile is positioning itself as a leader in the transition to green energy, particularly through its National Green Hydrogen Strategy, which aims to make Chile one of the world’s leading exporters of carbon-neutral hydrogen for energy and industrial applications. This thesis examines Chile’s green hydrogen policy from a political ecology perspective, in the context of 1) the Chilean state’s concept

Rapid urban growth has brought along various social, economic, and environmental issues, including the expansion of informal settlements – deprived areas lacking proper housing, basic services, and safety. Informal areas, inequalities and exclusion are common features in Nairobi, where more than half of the population is residing in slums. Women are the most vulnerable in this context, struggling

As there is an increasing trend in the large-scale flood disaster caused by short-duration rainfall in Japan, the discussion of the disaster prevention is renewed into “River Basin Disaster Resilience and Sustainability by All” recently. Given the enormous impact of maximum runoff on flood damage, this study mainly focuses on the peak-cutting and detention effect in the agricultural area where far

Den psykiska ohälsan stiger i världen och så många som en av åtta personer lever med psykisk ohälsa och upp till 71% av de som lider av psykisk ohälsa saknar tillgång till god vård.
