Looking at the contemporary practices of multi-story timber buildings reveals to us that they usually follow the tectonic language of concrete constructions. However, with a paradigm shift to sustainability, we need to rethink the way we design and construct. In other words, with a material alteration from concrete as the primary material of the 20th century to mass timber as the sustainable mater

The present study was a replication report where it investigates suppression-induced forgetting (SIF) using the think/no-think experimental paradigm and the thought avoidance strategy when tested using the same cue (same probe) and novel cue (independent probe) during learning of neutral words. Same probe test has been examined to demonstrate high sensitivity in detecting inhibition via the relati

This thesis examines the view of what a crown witness system could mean in terms of the witness’ willingness to testify in a criminal case. The aim was to answer how relations and emotions influence the witness’ tendency to give dictum about crimes. A further aim was to show what people with experience of meeting with witnesses think that a crown witness system applied to Swedish law, could mean f

The purpose of this thesis has been to investigate the liturgical practices of the Paschal candle in five different congregations within the Church of Sweden, and to analyse the underlying reasons for those practices; how and when is the Paschal candle used within the liturgy, and how is its usage interpreted and motivated by the congregations’ ministers and sextons? The thesis bases its findings

Literature shows that it is possible to induce placebo effects through classical conditioning. Literature also offers first evidence of a semantic memory retrieval enhancement effect elicited through a manipulation of expectancy, which may or may not fit the name of semantic memory retrieval placebo. The study here reported sought to discover whether a similar effect could be produced for episodic

Riskhantering inom försörjningskedjor har påvisats vara relevant på grund av dess sårbarhet för risker från flera håll. De senaste åren har världens försörjningskedjor utsatts för mer omfattande risker och kriser än vad som kunnat föreställas, såsom Covid-19 och anfallskrig mellan Ryssland och Ukraina. Därmed identifierades ett kunskapsgap i tidigare forskning kring dess användbarhet vid omfattand

Med målet att utvärdera en mindre restriktiv teknik för genmodifiering i sötpotatis (Ipomoea batatas), både gällande ekonomiska begränsningar såväl som det tid och energi bemödande som ett sådant projekt oundvikligen påbrår, har vi arbetat flitigt med att etablera optimerade parameters för protoplast isolation och fortsättningsvis också utforskat lovande protokoll för transformation och regeneratiIn the pursuit of a less restrictive technique to be used for the purpose of gene editing in sweetpotato (Ipomoea batatas), both in terms of economic limitations as well as the enormous time and energy inevitably sunk into such a project, we have worked hard to establish optimized parameters for protoplast isolation, and furthermore investigated promising protocols for transformation and regenerat

In light of declining multilateralism within the field of human rights since the 1990s, National Human Rights Institutions have been presented by the UN as translators capable of vernacularizing and institutionalizing global human rights ideals within the local. Yet, the global proliferation of National Human Rights Institutions sparked by the adoption of the UN Principles Relating to the Status o

I den här rapporten designas två möbelserier innehållande fåtölj, soffa och soffbord i varje samt väggmoduler som kan byggas samman. Dessa möbelserier samt väggmoduler skall tillverkas genom additiv tillverkning, även kallad 3Dutskrivning. Möblerna görs i termoplaster för att materialet skall enkelt kunna återanvändas till att skriva ut nya möbler i ny eller samma design då användaren vill byta ut

In recent years, there has been a lot of discussion in Germany about the compatibility of work and family. Politicians have invested greatly in this area, and reforms have repeatedly addressed problems. In particular, the 2007 reform of the "Bundeselterngeld- und Elternzeitgesetz" (Federal Parental Allowance and Parental Leave Act) was intended to promote female employment while also inv

The Garden City, and the architectural streetscape is a master thesis in architecture, completed in the spring semester of 2022 at Lund School of Architecture. Ebenezer Howard introduced the Garden City vision in 1898. Since then, countless neighborhoods, suburbs, and cities have developed inspired by the concept. The purpose of the garden city was by the beginning to raise the standard of living

Neighborhood attachment is an important and influential concept in environmental psychology. Yet, there is a lack of quantitative research that allows predictions to be made. Additionally, whereas neighborhood attachment is influenced by various variables, most studies only have assessed a few predictors. A quantitative study with cross-sectional design was conducted in order to create a comprehen

I Sverige har forskningen om svartas upplevelser i akademin varit begränsade, på grund av en självbild som är färgblind och som förhindrar erkännandet av svartas existens (praktik, tanke, kroppar). Denna studie är ett kulturanalytiskt försök att kunna bidra och bredda forskningsfältet för kritiska studier i den svenska akademin, genom att utforska svarta kvinnors känslomässiga och kroppsliga uppleIn Sweden the research about Black people’s experiences in academia is quite limited, because of a self-image that is colourblind which prevents the acknowledgement of Black existence (practice, thought, bodies). This thesis is a cultural analytical attempt to contribute and widen the research field of critical studies in Swedish academia, through exploring Black female’s emotional and body experi

Det sker en omställning i samhället där frågor om klimat och miljö får allt mer uppmärksamhet. Denna omställning sker även i byggbranschen som i nuläget står för stora delar av Sveriges totala koldioxidutsläpp, men redan år 2045 ska landet inte ha några nettoutsläpp av växthusgaser. För att nå målet kommer det att krävas kreativa innovationer inom flera områden. En del av lösningen är att ta

This case study research aims to identify the enabling factors and challenges for developing a joint Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) for Disaster Response Preparedness between Jordan, Israel and Palestine. Twelve qualitative semi-structured interviews were conducted with experts either involved in the SOP project, the region and/or with extensive experience in developing cross-border SOPs. Thre

Within the telecommunications industry, a positioning system for estimating user equipment (UE) location using purely information available for the basestation has an enormous number of potential uses. The link between physical position and the network channel state enables potential positioning systems to function by under- standing the network channel state dependency on location, using a model-
