A linear consumption model has long operated in several social structures, which is often referred to as the “take-make-waste” model and does not take into account the physical limit of resources. This has become a growing problem, not least in the construction sector as they use more resources and produce more waste than any other industrial sector. An alternative to the linear consumption model
My project sets off in the exploration of public spaces and new programmes emerging after the COVID-19 pandemic. The way we look at functions such as offices and retail has changed a lot during the past year. How will an office function compared to working from home? How will stores and retail function compared to e-commerce? I believe that the way we use these programmes will change, and togeth
Uppsatsens titel: Vem manipulerar resultatet? - En kvantitativ studie om bolagsstyrning och earnings management Seminariedatum: 2021-06-04 Kurs: FEKH89, Examensarbete i finansiering på Kandidatnivå, 15 högskolepoäng Författare: Erik Arnell Erik Karnehed Josefine Gunnarsson Handledare: Lars Oxelheim Nyckelord: Resultatmanipulering, bolagsstyrning, incitamentsprogram, styrelsesammansättning, Jo
The use of antidepressants to treat pediatric mental disorders is contentious as for instancethe FDA black box warning in 2004 has shown. Using cross-sectional data containing ret-rospective mental health diagnostics, I study outcomes of childhood and adolescence mentalhealth on labour supply and overall health in adulthood among those who were and werenot affected by the market entry of fluoxetin
Insoluble oat bran fibres, with substantial arabinoxylan (AX) content, are obtained as a byproduct from industrial processing of oat. By further processing it is possible to solubilise and hydrolyse AX into (arabino)xylo-oligosaccharides ((A)XOS). (A)XOS derived from other crops have shown to have prebiotic potential by stimulation of probiotic bacteria (Falck et al., 2013). In this study the e
In recent years, the demand for new types of stormwater infrastructure has increased due to increased urbanization and climate change. Attention has been aimed at creating a sustainable and resilient stormwater management. Blue-green infrastructure is a collective name for infrastructure striving to mimic nature's natural runoff. A facility that falls within the scope of this concept is rain g
The recent progress of deep learning has enabled more powerful frameworks to create good-quality deepfakes. Deepfakes, which are mostly known for malicious purposes, have great potential to be useful in areas such as the movie industry, education, and personalized messaging. This thesis focus on lip-synchronization, which is a part of a broader pipeline to develop personalized video messages, usin
The purpose of this study is to examine how spatial planning on contaminated land is done in theory compared to in practice. Furthermore, the study aims to identify potential gaps that may arise between legislation and work in practice as well as highlight challenges that exist. As a basis for the analysis, theories in the form of terms such as cooperation and frontline bureaucracy are used. The s
Skolan har tillskrivits både potential och ansvar i Sveriges brottsförebyggande arbete och har sedan länge varit föremål för insatser och åtgärder med brottspreventivt syfte. Samtidigt är kraven på lärarna många och höga och det finns en utbredd känsla av en för hög arbetsbelastning bland lärarkåren. Utifrån denna bakgrund syftar uppsatsen till att undersöka lärares upplevelser av det brottsföreby
Unsustainable use of natural resources has been the basis for economic growth since the industrial revolution. The linear model of extraction, processing, consumption and disposal has brought significant environmental consequences such as resource scarcity, pollution, biodiversity loss and climate change. The use of plastics is one example of unsustainable human behaviour. The use of them has offe
Syftet med denna uppsats är att fördjupa kunskapen angående de effekter som en global pandemi (som den nuvarande Covid-19 pandemins effekter) har på människors vardagsliv. Jag har valt att studera individer från två olika generationer: Millennials och Baby Boomers. Mitt huvudfokus är att undersöka hur dessa två generationer har anpassat sig till restriktionerna kopplade till Covid-19, och vilka om
This thesis work is on the theoretical description of dilute Bose-Einstein condensates (BEC) that are non-uniform, meaning that more than one single-particle state is occupied. This phenomenon is usually called quantum depletion. A common model for the ground state of a dilute and weakly interacting BEC is the mean-field (MF) approximation leading to the Gross-Pitaevskii (GP) equation. However, fo
Biodiversity loss and ecosystem service (BES) degradation are translating into different risks for financial institutions which are not accounted for in a sufficient and adequate manner. Being a topic outside its core expertise and foci, the financial sector is lacking assessment methodologies for BES risks. Therefore, the European financial sector is lacking up-to-date estimations on the scale of
Godståg är begränsade av sin oförmåga till snabb acceleration respektive retardation i spåret. För en förbättrad framkomlighet har möjliga trimningsåtgärder undersökts på utvalda platser där godstågen ansågs ha svårigheter att ta sig fram. Detta kan vara att installera repeterbaliser för att kunna ge godståget uppdaterad information om banan för att underlätta tågets framfart och kapacitet. Syfte
Boende baserat på delningsekonomi har blivit ett allt vanligare inslag både internationellt och på den svenska bostadsmarknaden. Tidiga former av delningsekonomi på bostadsmarknaden är Couchsurfing och AirBnB som skapat möjligheter för privatpersoner att hyra ut sina boenden när de står tomma. Idag är två mer permanenta exempel co-living och co-housing där hyresgäster utan tidigare relation till v
JavaDL is a domain-specific language (DSL) for writing static program analyses in a declarative logic programming style, based on Datalog. The key feature of this DSL is the ability to pattern-match on literal source code syntax and reason non-locally through declarative programming. Static program analyses generally suer from producing false positive alarms. This results in developers having to
Previous research has shown self-authenticity to be an important aspect of the consumer experience, especially in luxury consumption. However, previous research has been inconclusive regarding how consumer personality traits interact with self-authenticity in a second-hand luxury consumption context. Furthermore, these personality traits were also researched when the consumer felt more deserving i
