This thesis explores the experience of being young, Egyptian, supportive of the 2011 revolution, and active in civil society in the post-revolutionary period in Cairo and Alexandria. It draws from 5 in-depth interviews, and aims to understand the reasons behind youth’s engagement in the revolution beyond the framework of youth economic exclusion. It looks into their expectations from the revolutio

This thesis investigates word order patterns in spoken Basque for two dialects, Navarrese-Lapurdian and Gipuzkoan. The data for the analysis was elicited with stimuli pictures in an experiment in dialogue form. The 26 participants were from Hazparne (Lapurdi), Donostia, and Andoain (both Gipuzkoa). The data consists of transitive main clauses, both questions and declaratives with nominal subject a

Internet är ett stort globalt nätverk som fortsätter växa i komplexitet med nya tekniker och protokoll som utvidgar dess användbarhet och sättet vi sprider information. Trender, nyheter, videor och annan information sprider sig snabbt över världen vilket gör Internet till ett fantastiskt redskap för de användare som prenumererar på rätt informationsströmmar eller nyheter. Webläsare är en nödvändInternet is a vast digital network. Evergrowing in its complexity with frequent newly developed protocols extending the technology and changing the way we communicate and share information over the world. Trends, news, videos and other information spread quickly over the world, making web browsers an incredible tool for users who listen to the right feeds or news networks. Web browsers are a nec

Nowadays, with the increasing complexity of System-on-Chip (SoC), traditional debugging approaches are not enough in multi-core architecture systems. Hardware tracing becomes necessary for performance analysis in these systems. The problem is that the size of collected trace data through hardware-based tracing techniques is usually extremely large due to the increasing complexity of System-on-Chip

Samarbete och teamkänsla är vanliga begrepp på många arbetsplatser oavsett bransch. Aktörerna i byggbranschen är inte kända för att vara några pionjärer inom detta område utan branschen har historiskt sett snarare beskrivits som konservativ och konfliktfylld, vilket bidragit till att försämra byggbranschens rykte. En förändring håller på att ske, att olika aktörer kan jobba tillsammans för att nå

Det har visat sig att fysisk aktivitet minskar risken för en rad olika sjukdomar. Studien syftade till att undersöka fysisk aktivitet i olika kontexter och på olika nivåer för att bidra med ny kunskap om eventuella hälsofördelar med fysisk aktivitet. Då det är betydelsefullt för organisationens effektivitet och produktivitet att de anställda mår bra är det också viktigt att organisationen arbetar Physical activity has been shown to reduce the risk of several illnesses. The study aimed to investigate physical activity in different contexts and on different levels to contribute with new knowledge about possible health benefits linked to physical activity. Since the health of the employees is crucial for the organization’s efficiency and productivity it is important that organizations promote

This thesis reconnoiters the involvement of immigrants as owners, producers and organizers of multiethnic business ventures that appeal outside visitors, so called ethnic tourist-based entrepreneurship. The study is informed by the principles underlying an interpretive case study conducted in Rosengård, Malmö, and the data were collected through semi-structured interviews complemented by participa

This report analyses the need of sprinkler protection above suspended ceilings with regard to the fire classification of cables. The question formulation for this report is which ignition hazards can lead to a fire in cable ladders above suspended ceilings as well as how the fire classification of cables effect the need of sprinkler protection above suspended ceilings. The main conclusions that h

An embedded system’s software is often the backbone for a successful prod- uct. To make the system stand out from the other competitors on the mar- ket, your system must be adaptive and ready for quick updates. However, one may never truly know where your system is going to be used and how difficult it can be to access and update it. Here we show a solution that securely updates a system based upo

Sjölunda avloppsreningsverk är ett av de största reningsverken i Sverige och tar hand om avloppsvatten från stora delar av det snabbt växande Malmö. Befolkningsökningen sätter press på verket, där vattenreningen måste förbättras för att reningsverket ska kunna ta hand om ökande volymer avloppsvatten. För att nå detta mål drivs flera förbättringsprojekt på Sjölundaverket, däribland projekt som fokuThe activated sludge process has existed for over a century and despite its age the development of new theories, methods and technologies is ongoing. Despite huge technological breakthroughs in the last decades the activated sludge process is still a very energy demanding process however, and it is possible to make significant energy savings by optimizing the aeration strategy of an activated slud

The steel company SSAB in Borlänge has five plate heat exchangers that they use to cool the process water. The water is used to cool the steel after hot rolling. The exchangers need to be cleaned sometimes because of fouling, that reduces the cooling efficiency. This results in higher energy use and higher costs in the end. The goal of this paper is to create a model of a plate heat exchanger to m

Hem och A1M – ett test på liv och död Hem är en av kroppens viktigaste hjälpar-molekyler. När hem är bundet till proteiner hjälper det cellerna att utvinna energi och rensa ut gifter. Det mesta hemet finns i de röda blodkropparna där hem används till att transportera syre i kroppen. Tyvärr är obundet hem giftigt. Det har visat sig att havandeskapsförgiftning, ett tillstånd som kan drabba gravida,

Water is necessary for all life and one of the most important natural resources. The water resources problems were the reason why the project Development of the Altiplano area in Bolivia: a collaboration between Lund University (Sweden) and San Andres University in La Paz (Bolivia) was started. In the project PhD students are investigating the groundwater aquifer Challapampa that supplies the city

When live theatre is broadcast in real time at cinemas around the world, there is a gap in the current terminology. ’Mediatised live’ is a new expression, established in this thesis, to name the media form which has revolutionised the way of experiencing live theatre by broadcasting theatre live to venues around the world. By asking the question ‘Is the need for liveness dying?’ this thesis invest

Studiens bakgrund baseras på den snedfördelade representationen av könen vid svenska sjuksköterskeutbildningar. Könssegregationen vid utbildningarna ger en direkt effekt på hur fördelningen mellan könen blir på arbetsplatserna. Denna studie syftar till att undersöka hur universiteten använder sina hemsidor i syfte att skapa en mer jämställd studentkår med hjälp av kommunikations- och identifieringThis study is based on the gender gap in the swedish nursing programs which gives a direct effect of the gender gap at the workplaces. This study examines how universities use their websites along side with communication and identification methods to make their student body more gender-equal in traditionally genderd occupations. If they do, does it have an impact on the actual student body? Four o

Background & purpose Emulsions are droplets of one immiscible fluid that is encircled by another immiscible fluid, the formation of an emulsion requires energy applied to a certain volume, two immiscible fluids and an emulsifying agent. The excess of energy comes from high shear forces from the mixing blades which rotate at high speed. It is desired to know what fluid dynamics, in terms turbul

The signal crayfish (Pacifastacus leniusculus) is of great economic and social value in Sweden. Therefore it is of great importance that knowledge and experience is obtained and applied when creating a sustainable fishing industry. My study shows that the fecundity of the female crayfish is determined by her size, a larger female crayfish gives more offspring than a smaller one. In practice, most

With an increase in the number of simulations and complexity the need for compu-tational power is ever increasing. One way to meet this demand is to utilize parallelcomputing, where multiple processors work together on one problem. Parallel com-puting has been employed in conjunction with a topology optimizer for maximizingplastic work.
