This qualitative study examines how the Israeli occupation affects and interferes with Palestinian intimate relationships in the Occupied Palestinian Territories. The research material consists of semi-structured interviews with female students and graduates conducted during a short period of fieldwork in the West Bank in September 2016. The thesis shows that Israeli mechanisms of control, such as
A key question for researchers is what blockages are on the pathway towards a sustainable transformation? This research is exploratory and advocacy based, taking place within a rural region in Norway. It involved two interconnected questions: Q1. What are the challenges to increasing environmentally sustainable performance in the region? Q2. What solutions could increase environmentally sustainabl
Atherosclerosis is a chronic disease of arteries. Cardiovascular diseases, of which atherosclerosis is an underlying mechanism, are the most common causes of death globally. The disease is characterised by lipids having penetrated the intima of the artery wall, accompanied by inflammation, fibrosis and endothelial hyperplasia. Accumulated cells, lipids, connective-tissue elements and debris from t
Enligt principen om verklig innebörd kan domstolarna omklassificera de skattskyldigas rättshandlingar om de skattskyldigas faktiska handlande inte överensstämmer med rättshandlingarnas form. Domstolarna kan således anse att ett avtal som är rubricerat som ett lån i själva verket utgör ett köp. Vad domstolen gör är med andra ord att utreda vad som rent faktiskt har ägt rum, för att sedan beskatta dIn Swedish internal tax law, there is a judge made principle that allows the courts and taxation agency to recharacterize agreements concluded by the taxpayers, if the form is not consistent with the actual conduct of the parties. Subsequently, according to the principle of substance over form, a loan can be recharacterized as a purchase if the conduct of the parties and other circumstances are no
Enorma mängder människor är just nu på flykt i världen. Många av dessa är barn som har kommit till Sverige utan förälder eller annan legal vårdnashavare. Dessa barn är en extra känslig grupp och jag har i detta examensarbete därför valt att designa ett HVB (hem för vård eller boende) för 24 ensamkommande flyktingbarn, på området Möllevången, i centrala Malmö. Jag har ställt mig frågan: Hur arkite
RNA interference (RNAi) is a biological gene silencing mechanism that functions in every cell, and has the last two decades become a promising approach for genetic therapeutics. With small interfering RNA (siRNA) complementary to the target gene sequence, the siRNA together with the RNA induced silencing complex (RISC), can degrade the coding mRNA, inhibit protein from translation and thus mediate
I dagens marknad måste akustiktak vara både funktionellt och estetiskt tilltalande. För att uppfylla de behoven har Saint-Gobain Ecophon utvecklat en produkt som heter Focus DS som är ett demonterbart akustiktak med dolt bärverk. Även om Focus DS uppfyller marknadsbehoven har Ecophon upptäckt att där är problem med den nuvarande designen av Focus DS som ofta leder till skador på takplattorna. MåleAcoustic ceilings in today’s market has to be both functional and aesthetically pleasing. In order to fulfill those needs Saint-Gobain Ecophon has developed a product called Focus DS which is a demountable acoustic ceiling with a concealed grid system. Even though Focus DS fulfills the markets needs Ecophon has discovered that there are issues with the current design of Focus DS that often results
Med globalisering och internationalisering har det blivit allt vanligare för företag att skicka chefer eller andra anställda att jobba utomlands. De som skickas kallas för utstationerade. Vissa utstationerade anställda misslyckades med sina uppdrag eftersom de inte kunde anpassa sig till den nya kulturen. Syftet med studien var att undersöka relationen mellan tid i värdlandet, kulturell intelligen
This thesis investigates the options for data logging for PLC:s produced by Automationspartner AB. The thesis investigates the three most common brands of PLC used by Automationspartner, and will for each brand determine which is the most suited, based on criteria provided by the company. This thesis compare a number of solutions but only a few of these are analyzed in greater detail. The thesis r
The aim of the thesis was to build a test environment to be used by the company Cactus Uniview. The test environment should be a tool (software) for testers in the development department, the test environment should be able to ensure the quality of the tool Cactus Eye. Cactus Eye is connected to a PLCs and can be used to control many PLCs. Cactus Uniview uses a virtual test environment (entirely b
Svensk sjöfart har sedan oljekrisen i början av 1970-talet i olika omgångar haft svårt att konkurrera på den internationella marknaden. Svenska rederier har saknat de verktyg som flertalet andra sjöfartsnationer har haft för att kunna hålla nere personalkostnaderna. Dessa verktyg har exempelvis bestått i parallella sjöfartsregister. Svenskt tonnage har därför bekvämlighetsflaggats i register utanfSince the oil crisis in the early 1970s´ the shipping companies in Sweden have faced difficulties in their competition with other seafarer nations. Ship owners in other countries has certain tools in order to keep the employee costs down that the Swedish ships owners don´t have. The tools in question is parallel ships registers that are of a convenient model for the ship owners. As a result of the
The district heating sector is moving into a new era which brings lower temperatures in the heating network which in turn opens up for a more extensive use of low grade heat such as solar heat. This project aims to develop a dynamic simulation model for feeding centrals in order to be able to design and optimize systems for decentralized feeding regardless of heat source. The big challenge lies in
Tracing cell lineage has not been considered feasible in humans due to the invasive procedures. However, by analysing somatic mutations acquired during cell division it is possible to compare the relationship between cells within an individual. Knowledge about cell lineage relationships can shed light on the origins of new cells. In order to track cell fate in humans, we are developing a method en
The growth of building energy simulation tools has provided users with a variety of alternatives to model and simulate buildings. The algorithms used in each building energy simulation software are different and range from simple to highly complex. TEKNOsim is a simple design tool based on analytical and empirical algorithms. It is used for calculating building thermal loads and simulating indoor
Background Axis is a network surveillance company, based in Lund, Sweden. Axis has outsourced its production to contract manufacturers which are positioned in different parts of the world. Axis’ suppliers are also spread across the globe. During the last years, Axis has experienced several supply disruptions from its suppliers and contract manufacturers, due to natural and technological disasters.
Studien fokuserar på att kartlägga svenska lärares benägenhet inför att vidarebefordra information om oegentligheter i den egna verksamheten, samt presentera skillnader i sådan benägenhet mellan privat och offentligt anställda. Studien bygger på de begrepp och resonemang som presenteras i Lennart Lundquists Demokratins väktare. Studiens empiriska material består av enkätsvar från 194 anonyma lära
The purpose of this thesis is to explore the relationship between gendered vulnerabilities and well-being outcomes in the face of climate change by introducing a consolidated gender and vulnerability framework as a tool to highlight and assess underlying power structures determining women’s adaptive capacity. The thesis first focuses on women’s perception of climate signals and its direct and indi
I denna uppsats studeras Egypten specifikt. Syftet är att ta reda på vilka klassbaserade motsättningar som fanns i Egypten som ledde fram till Mubaraks fall år 2011. Studien är teorianvändande och utifrån ett klassperspektiv tillämpar vi begrepp som våldsmonopol, klass ojämlikhet och demokrati, klasskonstellationers relation till demokratisering, klassintressen och kollektiv aktion, konceptualiser
