Abstract This thesis seeks to examine how attachment theory can contribute to identifying implicit images of God in Psalms 88 and 91 in the Psalter. The purpose is also to see whether or not these specific images of God can be understood as harmful or beneficial for the worshipper and if this approach can deepen the psychological understanding of the image of God in the Psalms. The starting poi

En aktuell debatt i svensk politik är hushållens växande skulder, framför allt i storstadsområdena. Förslag har lagts fram från Finansinspektionen och Sveriges Riksbank om amorteringskrav, skuldkvotstak och sänkt ränteavdrag. Detta för att hämma en eventuellt fortsatt ökning av hushållens skulder. Den svenska hushållssektorns ökande skuldsättning tillskrivs främst de lägre kostnaderna för bolån soA current topic in Swedish politics is the increasing household debt, particularly in the metropolitan areas. The Swedish Central Bank and the Financial Supervisory Authority have made proposals for several policies, to inhibit a continued growth of the household debt. These policies include introducing amortization requirements, a debt-to-income ratio limit and reduced home mortgage interest dedu

The chemical resistance is an important property for elastomers, especially for gaskets used in industrial applications related to food processing and packaging. Three common elastomers, namely silicone, FKM (fluorocarbon) and EPDM (hydrocarbon with carbon-carbon double bonds), were aged in harsh chemicals used in specific applications in Tetra Pak filling machines. Gaskets of these materials were

This thesis explores and maps the current flow of information within the Malawi Health Information Systems (HIS), which is paper based but now moving towards a digitalized system. This transition provides a unique opportunity to map and study how dimensions of Information Quality (IQ) can indicate the effectiveness of information flow. In comparing the paper based information flow and the transiti

This study analyses the power dynamic in the government-led sustainable certification, the Indonesian Sustainable Palm Oil (ISPO), and how it affects equitable participation, especially the smallholders who are the bottom actors in the industry. A case study was carried out in Jambi province, as one of the largest palm oil producers in the country. This study examines various actors related to the

During my studies at the Malmö Academy of Music I have received many tips and advice from teachers and students on how to create a successful career in music. However, these different types of advice have almost exclusively been of a general nature, and not specifically related to the instrument I play, the acoustic guitar.Therefore, the purpose of this thesis is inquire into possible ways to make

Colour terms is a highly interesting field when investigating linguistic universals and how language vary cross-linguistically. Colour semantics, the investigation of the meaning of colour, consists in largely of two opposing sides: the universalists, proposing that colour terms are universal (Berlin & Kay 1969) and the relativists claiming a variation in meaning cross-linguistically (Wierzbic

Det har nyligen bekräftats att extrema solar proton events (SPE) kan leda till kraftigt ökad produktion av kosmogena radionuklider (Mekhaldi et al. 2015). Bevis för detta kan påträffas i trädringar (14C) och iskärnor (10Be, 36Cl). Kalibreringskurvan IntCal13, vilken är ett kontinuerligt trädringsregister över 14C fluktuation- er under hela Holocen, användes för att lokalisera två potentiella toppaRecently it has been confirmed that extreme solar proton events (SPE) can lead to significantly increased production of cosmogenic radionuclides (Mekhaldi et al. 2015). The evidence of these events can be recorded in tree rings (14C) and ice cores (10Be, 36Cl). The IntCal13 calibration curve, which is a continuous tree ring record of 14C fluctuations throughout the Holocene, was used to locate two

Sensor fusion has been widely adopted in the last couple of years, especially in the automobile industry. Their main goal is to gain a more robust system and increase security by e.g. predicting and preventing collisions. Surveillance systems, based on video motion detection, face similar issues by having numerous problems with false triggers, particularly when there are big variations in the lig

Electric vehicles have received a lot of attention lately and are expected to boom in the near future. In the power grid industry this raises concern on whether the grid is dimensioned to handle the power peaks related to charging. Solar cells are also a hot topic when discussing future energy supply and how it will impact on the grid. Initially this thesis gives insight to the current state of s

This master thesis is concerned with the site of Refshaleøen in Copenhagen and how a proposal of buildings would enhance the identity of the place, attract more people while maintaining the qualities of the old industrial area. A contradiction in itself and thus not an easy task. As method, the first steps were to document the site, attain background material and history of the site to better unde

1 738 kilometer norrut från Lund ligger Kvikkjokk och därifrån är det 42 km söderut över fjällen till Jäkkvik. Vandringen, som går längs Kungsleden, går över fyra sjöar och tre bergspassager. Här får vandrare se hur midnattssolen står högt på himlen över snöklädda bergstoppar, höra hur vattenfallet dånar under fötterna då de står på en smal metallbro och känna den mjuka smaken av solvarma hjortron

The complement system is a link between adaptive and innate immunity, which is a first line protection against pathogens. It can be activated through three different pathways which all lead to formation of C3 and C5 convertases and final complement-mediated lysis of cells. The system contains regulatory mechanisms at different steps of activation to avoid lysing of own cells. Recent years, have sh

Denna uppsats ämnar att förstå de nostalgiska uttryck som tycks ha intensifierats i den samtid Ulrich Beck beskriver som ’den nya moderniteten’ samt hur detta påverkar individen. Som första steg redogörs en aktuell definition av begreppet nostalgi med hjälp av tidigare forskning. Genom en kvalitativ intervjustudie med respondenter utvalda utifrån yrkesroller sammankopplade med nostalgi ämnar uppsa

Människan har försökt att förklara beteenden genom att kategorisera personligheter i olika kombinationer för att få så mycket kontroll på vardagen som möjligt. På senare år har arbetsplatser börjat använda olika formaliserade metoder för att kunna kategorisera människor vid rekrytering, med syfte att matcha person till yrke och för att hitta rätt person till rätt position. Studiens syfte är att bSince the existence of human civilization, we have endeavored to understand and accept people's differences. One such way in which we have tried to explain human behavior is through classifying personalities into different categories. This has now evolved to become part of the recruitment processes as a tool to find the right person for the right position, with both positive and negative effec

Nätdejting har blivit ett populärt sätt att möta andra människor på. Sedan dejting- applikationen Tinder etablerades i Sverige har en yngre generation än tidigare börjat nätdejta. Syftet med denna uppsats är att tolka och analysera unga vuxnas beskrivningar av hur de upplever och använder Tinder som verktyg för att möta andra människor. Det empiriska materialet utgörs av djupintervjuer med tolv pe

Anta att du har en viss typ av datafil, men för att ditt program ska fungera så måste din data vara i en annan typ av fil. Du har ingen aning hur filerna är uppbyggda eller hur du ska göra om dem så att ditt program kan använda dem. Den här studien har tagit första steget mot att filöversättningsverktyg själva ska kunna komma fram till hur en datafil bör översättas, så att användaren slipper involInteroperability is a sought after quality in most software. One way to increase interoperability is to make transformation of data between formats easier. Several transformation tools exists and many utilizes the Extract, Transform, Load-process to perform the transformations. The transformation part of the process can be done in several different ways. Using a lookup table to arrange the underly

This essay examines twenty-two minoan-mycenaean gold signet rings depicting group motifs. It strives for an unbiased approach to the interpretation of the motifs by studying the placement, negative space and direction of the figures in search of possible signs of hierarchy and gender expression. In doing so, traditional theories of women being the most important figures are challenged. The essay c

A study is presented in the report regarding fires that have occurred in the USA between 2007 and 2015 in tall residential buildings with wood frame. The work is based on fire investigations compiled by NFPA and does only include large-scale fires and fatal fires. The general conclusions that have been made are that sprinklers have a positive impact on the extent of a fire and that an installation

Modelica is a modelling language used to describe a physical system and can be used to simulate the system. A Modelica compiler transforms a Modelica model into an equation system in order to simulate it. During this transformation the information about where the equations originates from is lost. This information could be useful to have when, e.g., trying to locate an error. In this thesis we sol
