Although there has been more than 30 years since the war ended, Lebanon is still a deeply divided society, and the current peace is characterized by reoccurring eruptions of violence and inter-sectarian tension. While the sectarian

The research aims to investigate and identify private digital primary healthcare usage patterns, introduced in Sweden in early 2016. The research has been limited to LUSEM bachelor students and its financial implications for the region of Skåne. The research takes a quantitative approach by using an online survey. Further, the study aims to provide insights into the region’s finances and incentivi

The Circular Economy (CE) has gained global recognition as a way to enable sustainability improvements in production and consumption systems. Numerous circularity indicators (c-indicators) have been developed by academia and practitioners to be used at the company level as analytical tools to measure progress towards a more circular economy. Nevertheless, there is a lack of empirical evidence on t

Purpose: The purpose of the study is to gain an understanding of how Swedish millennials perceive the image of luxury textile brands that have always relied on animal leather and now are introducing plant-based vegan leather textiles. Methodology/Empirical data: The study is based on the foundation of social constructionism philosophy. A qualitative research design is followed in the present stud

The production of ethanol from second-generation feedstock like lignocellulose is limited by efficient growth of Saccharomyces cerevisiae on xylose. One of the reasons for that might be a lower ATP formation vs. proton formation flux in cells using the xylose reductase (XR)/xylose dehydrogenase (XDH) pathway compared to glucose as ideal substrate. The therefore reduced availability of ATP, as ATP

The market for Wi-Fi receiver designs for latest Wi-Fi standards, that cover RF bands in the 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz and 6 GHz spectrum, require increasingly stringent power consumption limitations as more of the market is driven towards battery-powered devices. In order to meet those needs, it is crucial to explore different ways of reducing power consumption in various receiver blocks. One such power con

The research aims to determine whether there is a trend of reshoring among major fashion conglomerates and whether supply chain resilience and sustainable manufacturing may contribute to understanding this trend. The study takes a quantitative approach, using a combination of inference statistics and descriptive statistics. To uncover patterns in the manufacturing locations of these conglomerates,

This thesis focuses on the practice of sex for compensation performed by women with transgender and asylum experiences living in Sweden. It aims to explore the complexities of sex for compensation by positioning this practice as both strategy and a tactic for obtaining income used for gender affirmation, considering that gender-affirmative healthcare is not available for asylum seekers in Sweden.

This project studies a method of image-based fog detection directly from a camera without using the transmissometer. Fog can be detected using transmissometers which could be a very costly approach. This thesis presents an image-based approach for fog detection using Artificial Neural networks. A neural network model will be used to classify images either into two classes, whether it contains fo

I denna uppsats görs en netnografisk studie på forumet Reddit och hur kvinnliga detransitioners, personer som tidigare identifierat sig som transmän använder forumet för att interagera med varandra samt hur stigma kan förstås i deras upplevelser och erfarenheter i processen av återidentifiering till de kön som de tilldelats vid födseln. Detransitioners är ett relativt nytt och outforskat fenomen,

This thesis examines the way in which Sweden opted to set up its taxation on the supply of energy from renewable sources and whether they are in line with EU tax law. Windmills in Sweden are granted a lower-rate tax than other sources of renewable energy production, which is stated to be within the scope of the de minimis Regulation. Firstly, the thesis starts by examining what State aid is, looki

This study examines the implementation of carbon capture and storage (CCS) technology, specifically the monoethanolamine (MEA) chemical absorption method, in a biomass power plant. The aim is to assess the energy requirements and optimize the solvent processes to improve the overall efficiency of the carbon capture process. The use of bioenergy with carbon capture and storage (Bio-CCS) is pro

The electron beam ion source REXEBIS at CERN-ISOLDE delivers highly-charged ra- dioactive ions for post-acceleration in the HIE-ISOLDE LINAC. Research and develop- ment of components for electron beam ion sources is carried out at the TwinEBIS test stand, currently equipped with a Brillouin electron gun called MEDeGUN. Excessive ion extraction losses have been reported at TwinEBIS during commissio

Kroppen är något vi alla behöver förhålla oss till. Dock är förhållningssätten till kroppen ofta problematiska, särskilt för unga kvinnor. Det är svårt att undkomma alla de budskap om hur våra kroppar bör se ut, och vetskapen att samhället präglas av en slankhetsnorm är det få som undgår. Även litteraturen har en viktig betydelse för att förmedla budskap om kroppen samt om förhållningssätt till de

Syfte: Studiens syfte var att undersöka om elevers resultat på delar av ett språkligt test (CELF-4) korrelerar med deras skattning av interaktion och kommunikation i klassrummet (ASIK Express). Vidare undersöktes hur elever skattar påståenden ur ASIK Express som specifikt berör interaktion och kommunikation. Metod: Deltagare bestod av 97 elever från en kommun i södra Sverige. Deltagarnas svar på AThesis: The purpose of this study was to investigate whether students' results on parts of a language test (CELF-4) correlate with their assessment of interaction and communication in the classroom (ASIK Express). Furthermore, it was examined how students valuate statements specifically concerning interaction and communication from ASIK Express. Method: 97 students from a municipality in south
