The demand for products with alternative proteins that can replace meat continues to increase. One alternative protein is mycoprotein, which is produced by filamentous fungi. This master thesis was made at Mycorena in Gothenburg, a company that has developed their own mycoprotein product Promyc®, which has already been successfully used in several vegan food products. The aim of this master thesi
Led by the growth paradigm, the fashion sector finds itself in patterns of overproduction and overconsumption putting immense pressure on socio-ecological systems. To tackle this current system, the degrowth movement emerges as a plausible solution. In this thesis, we aim at getting an empirically based understanding of social innovations’ strategies of change, in the fashion sector, in order to e
ADHD is a diagnosis that was believed to be a child diagnosis. Nowadays it is a known fact that the diagnosis remains in adulthood. Due to this, we found it interesting to immerse ourselves in the topic of adults. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to investigate how individuals who got the diagnosis as adults or youths reflect about three different aspects; how the diagnosis has affected th
To seal a cable going into the chassis of a camera, a cable gasket is placed between the chassis and the gasket. This type of gasket is called a grommet. For this project, these grommets needed to be able to withstand a modular plug being pulled through and at the same time be as small as possible to fit into a small space. The purpose of this master thesis was to investigate how to make a grommet
När bokbranschen nu genomgår en förändring där digitala böcker blir allt mer populära är det viktigt för förlagen att veta hur användarbeteendet ser ut när det gäller de nya plattformarna. Hur går det egentligen till när ljudboksanvändare väljer ljudböcker? Den frågan ger den här undersökningen svar på genom att undersöka vilka faktorer som påverkar valet av ljudbok. Faktorerna utbud, omslag, förf
In times of limited resources, growing cities, and a changing world, weeding out outdated answers to new questions is a cardinal task of architecture. Especially in cities, the space is limited, and space does not equal space. Development in the outer parts with new infrastructure has vastly different consequences than densification on inner-city plots. In the case study city of Berlin, the popula
Since the inception of Hinduism some 3500-4300 years ago, religion has been at the forefront of human, cultural, and social development, but how influential has it been on economic growth during the past century? This study examines this intriguing question to find whether or not religion is as prominent in the prosperity and development of modern economies as it once was. Seven carefully selected
Det är ingen nyhet att stora delar av Sverige är täckt av skog. Det är också vår största export. I takt med ökade klimatförändringar vill man hitta mer hållbara energikällor, mer hållbara sätt att bygga, eller hållbara bränslekällor. För att klara denna utveckling har skogen en stor roll. Granbarkborren är en liten insekt som gilla att äta, bo och föröka sig i gran. Om det sker en stor storm och fThe forest industry has big problems with the bark beetle attacking trees. This results in that they must log the damaged trees, which leads to an economic loss. For a tree to be able to stand against a big populations of bark beetles, it needs to have a strong defence or be surrounded by other trees via associational resistance. Furthermore, natural enemies to the bark beetle can also act as a de
Följande rapport beskriver hur simuleringsverktyget Simscape, en produkt från företaget Mathworks, använts för att konstruera en modell av en del av ett pappersmassabruk. Modellen som byggts upp är tänkt att efterlikna det (ång)system som förser bruket med den ånga och elektricitet som är nödvändig för att driva alla processer i fabriken. Bruket har under en längre tid haft problem med att en alltThe following thesis describes the construction of a model, made in Simscape, of an existing steam cycle at a pulp mill located in the south of Sweden. The pulp mill has had problems with produced steam being wasted, and the purpose of the model was to trim the regulation of existing components to reduce this surplus of steam. The model was built and extended incrementally, starting with the steam
The increasingly volatile, uncertain, and complex business landscape in which contemporary global corporations operate presents challenges to management and specifically for leaders of dispersed virtual teams. To cope with unreliable external circumstances, modern multinationals operate under imperatives to develop new forms of transnational capabilities, by mobilizing knowledge resources across g
Sammanfattning Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka hur inlärningsstrategier används av sfi-elever och huruvida strategierna skiljer sig åt mellan grupper med olika studiebakgrund. Data samlades in med en kvantitativ enkät som syftade till att elever på sfi gav deras syn på olika påståenden kring sin egen inlärning och hur troligt det är att de skulle använda sig av vissa strategier. Eleverna
Intermediate partner violence is a recurring social problem with negative consequences for the women involved. This paper describes an analysis of domestic violence, with focus on the role of the mothers and the women without children. The aim of this study is to explore the responsibility of the women involved in domestic violence. This study focuses on mothers and women without childrens respons
Though established as a movement and recognised as artistic form, light art remains elusive and somewhat enigmatic in its definitions and categorisations. This thesis aims to contribute to the current discourse on light art by exploring the application of objecthood and embodied simulation whilst acknowledging the contextual, three-dimensional, spectacular, and anti-art qualities of the art form.
Informal employment in the 21st century is increasingly prevalent across the world and becomes particularly insecure in the Global South. This thesis studies different aspects of the precarious nature of informal sector jobs in a specific district in India. The research is built upon the concept of precarity which refers to instability, vulnerability and the volatile essence of the informal labor
The project started out with professor Fredrik Nilsson reaching out to the school on the behalf of a company called Fixaspine. They were developing a product that aims to improve the neck posture and were interested in collaborating on improving the current iteration of their prototype. I reached out and a collaboration was made An initial meeting was conducted where it was concluded that us
Sammanfattningsvis har studieförfattaren kommit fram till att vad gäller rapportering förhållandet inom de intervjuade företagen, använder de sig av ett digital rapporteringssystem där alla medarbetare har en skyldighet att rapportera Detta gör att olyckor, incidenter samt riskobservationer utreds för att identifiera fel och genom det åtgärda förekommande fel. Det visar även sig i studie resultateIn summary, the study author has concluded that in terms of the reporting relationship within the interviewed companies, they use a digital reporting system where all employees have an obligation to report. This means that accidents, incidents and risk observations are investigated to identify errors and through action wrong. It also shows in the study results that both companies have shortcomings
The purpose of this study is to examine what the life situation of street children in Tehran might look like based on the perceptions of social workers at Noore Sepid Hedayat (NSH), an NGO based in Tehran. At the same time the aim is to study how street children may be treated by different members of the society as well as how they can get in contact with such NGO as NSH, based on the perceptions
Two different topologies of power amplifiers (PAs) are designed in the frequency range 130-174.8 GHz for use in backhaul transmitters. These are the pseudo-differential common source (PDCS) and the single-ended stacked amplifier topologies. The PAs are designed in Cadence AWR design environment with virtual source models, implemented in Verilog-A, of InGaAs nanowire transistors using a 20 nm gate
