Human development index (HDI) is a summary measure used around the world that indicates whether a country is developed, still developing, or undeveloped. HDI incorporates the main factors of human life such as health, education and income. Deprivation in these areas of human life is measured by calculating human poverty index (HPI).

In Örja there are several prehistoric sites from the Neolithic and to the late Viking Age. Örja which has its foundation in the early Middle Ages still exists today.

Skärvor och kärl hittas alltid vid arkeologiska undersökningar, både vid stadsgrävningar och på bytomter. Vid enstaka tillfällen framkommer även skärvor som har kasserats redan vid tillverkningen. De kan vara deformerade, sammansmälta i varandra eller ha spruckit i bränningen. Detta fyndmaterial är spår efter krukmakare och de verkstäder där man tillverkat dessa kärl. Trots att de funnits mängder

Den här uppsatsen handlar om byggnadshistoria och förändringar i S:t Petri kyrka i Malmö. Kyrkan byggdes under 1300-talet och är stadens äldsta byggnad. Genom historien har den oundvikligen mött en rad förändringar, påverkat av samtida stilideal och funktioner. Dessa förändringar blir därför intressanta då man talar om hur en medeltidskyrka har bevarats. Några frågor för uppsatsen är: När och varf

Syftet med min uppsats har varit att uppnå bättre kunskap kring de befintliga teorier som finns kring stridsyxan och dess betydelse. Materialet jag har använt har varit relevant och genom att sammanställa befintliga teorier samt skapa en egen tolkning har jag fått ett svar på min problemställning; vilken betydelse hade stridsyxan för SYK (stridsyxekulturen) i Sydsverige? Min kritiska granskning ha

Studien syftar till att nå en djupare förståelse för hur personer med hög självvärdering upplever, fungerar och relaterar i vardagen. Utifrån tidigare forskning inom främst de psykodynamiska och kognitiva teorierna har studieförfattarna försökt få en rikare bild av och förståelse för vad den moderna Narcissus ser i sin spegelbild. I studien deltog 388 unga vuxna, studenter som rekryterades vid oliThis study aims at reaching a greater understanding of how people with high self-evaluation feel, think, function and relate in everyday life. On the basis of earlier research within mainly psychodynamic and cognitive theories, the study authors have tried to mirror what the Narcissus of today may see in his or her reflection. The participants consisted of 388 students, 182 men and 206 women, recr

The idea for this Master’s thesis originated from the author’s curiosity, about digital collection development in Danish research libraries. Is collection development literature, and its tools, currently in use in today’s research library sector and, if not, could it perhaps be of interest for these research libraries, in the long term? These considerations resulted in the author’s work with the c

The purpose of the study is to investigate the impact, in magnitude and direction, of some preliminary push-pull economic forces on the decision of Finland people to migrate to Sweden in the time period 1960-2009. It also aims to see how different people respond to those forces active based on their sex, marital status and age, 15-30 and 50-65 and strives to oversee which economic factors were mor

This B.A-thesis has its focus on the Roman Iron Age in southern Scandinavia; i.e. Scania and the Danish isles. The main plot line is about the military and political structures during this time; how they worked together and what the archaeological evidence for this is. The material used consists of weapon burials, bog finds and historical sources. Since this material already have been examined and

Abstract Analysis of CTENTM building system Approximately 40 % of the total energy consumption in Sweden is being consumed in the building market. The introduction of passive houses to the market have created circumstances for a reduction of nearly half the energy consumption compared with today’s energy regulations. The idea of how to do this is well known but has never gained any foothold until

This thesis investigates how Turkey´s trade flows would have been affected if they had taken the same road of integration, into the EU, as the CEEC. For this purpose we have used the gravity model and produced both cross section and panel data regressions. The method used is first an in sample estimation of the bilateral trade flows between the CEEC and EU. Secondly a trade potential for Turkey wa

This Master Thesis in Technical Mathematics at LTH, directed towards simulation and computation,has treated the subject of fluid-structure interaction (FSI) for incompressible flowwith small vibrations. The open source packages DEAL.II and OpenFOAM have been used to create a coupling between a finite element formulation for structure and a finite volume formulation for fluid ( gas or liquid ). A s
