The modernization of China comes as one of the most interesting topics not only at this moment but also has been researched for a long time. The individualization theories come as a result of modernity. This thesis draws on ten in-depth interviews in order to analyze the individualization among the educated, middle-class young people who were born in the 1990s by testing Yan Yunxiang’s theories of
Climate change, along with grassland degradation, have become major causes of livelihood difficulties for herdsmen in Inner Mongolia for the past few decades. The purpose of this study is to seek better understanding of the relationships between climate change and herders’ livelihoods in pastoral communities in Inner Mongolia, map out the major institutional changes on climate adaptation measures
As the entertainment industry continues to grow and fictional characters holding enormous value, this paper seeks to explain how the characters can be protected within the EU through copyright or the use of trade marks, and what the limitations to such protection might be. The paper is using a legal analytical method and looks at both the legislation and the case-law within the union, but also at
European rivers experience increasing concentrations of total organic carbon (TOC) from terrestrial sources due to factors involving changes in land use, climate and soil acidity. However, low interest is given to the evolution of total organic nitrogen (TON) concentrations in surface waters, the links with TOC concentrations and the influence of the surrounding land cover on nutrient inputs. Inve
I denna fallstudie undersöks och analyseras frågeställningen utifrån chefers upplevelser inom ett internationellt tillverkande bolag i industribranschen. Sättet att hantera både kunder och medarbetare blir allt mer betydelsefullt för att konkurrera med service. Chefernas roll blir i samband med detta avgörande för att uppnå organisatoriska mål och god extern serviceleverans. Syftet med studien äIn this case study essay, the issue is examined and analyzed on the basis of managers' experiences within an internationally manufacturing company in the industrial industry. The way to handle both customers and employees is becoming increasingly important to compete with service. The role of the managers becomes associated with this for achieving organizational goals and delivering external
Laundry as a household activity has been subject to (un)sustainable consumption studies. The majority of those studies are rooted in mainstream approaches to (un)sustainable consumption focusing on either changing individuals (e.g., their decisions, behaviors, habits) or system (e.g., infrastructure, technology). Moreover, the laundry has been predominantly studied as a washing activity. This rese
In this study, a hydrochemical and biological investigation, and a vulnerability assessment were conducted on the Los Bambinos aquifer during the spring of 2020. A literature study on previous studies conducted in the area was also made. This aquifer is located on the southwestern slope of the Barva volcano, northeast of Alajuela, Costa Rica. The hydrochemical investigation found the groundwater t
Kostnadsbesparingar är en central del i många företag däremot skapar den osäkerheter i försörjningskedjan ifall en plötslig kris uppkommer. Med ett växande konsumtionssamhälle ställer kunder allt mer krav på försörjningskedjan och konstant tillgång till livsmedel. Produktionsföretag och deras ledning måste därför kunna möta kundernas krav och deras efterfrågan allt snabbare. Viss litteratur belyse
In dense urban areas, the need for greenery increases, yet the total amount of green space in many Swedish cities decreases. Vegetation can create attractive environments, improve the micro-climate and the cities’ climate adaptation, but it also risks impairing cyclists' traffic safety. Vegetation can impair visibility, reduce the width of infrastructure, leaves can lead to slipperiness and ob
Residents living in small towns that are a part of a bigger municipality may sometimes feel overlooked as they sense that they have lesser influence. Smaller towns may not have the resources or consider the need for integrating technology with the town, thus possibly making it harder for the residents to stay updated and be in contact with the town. By focusing on the residents' needs, a digit
The urge for more sustainable and environmental-friendly transportation has never been as high as it is today. The demand will probably continue to increase as the knowledge about climate change continues to widen and as the expectations, of mitigation and adaptation measures, intensifies. One sector that is in great need of taking more mitigation and adaptation measures is the transport sector. T
RF-switches are key components in many electronic devices as they enable routing of higher frequency signals. Increasing demands on device performance requires new technologies as well as new approaches to designs of circuits. III-V nanowire MOSFETs are a promising device technology well suited for implementation of switches. This work investigates the design trade-off's for III-V nanowire MO

The main purpose of this thesis is to increase the understanding of how hydrogeological conditions are affecting the local water resources in Carrizal on the Barva Volcano, Costa Rica. Hydrogeological investigations of spring characteristics, soil infiltration rates and water flow in springs and rivers were conducted at the study area in Costa Rica as part of a Minor Field Study (MFS). A statistic
Mexico will need to provide about 26 million housing units by 2030 and it is only through the understanding of the current situation and the awareness of the main challenges that affect the housing problems, that appropriate responses to the context can be proposed. By providing decent, secure and affordable housing, social problems can be reduced improving health and security, local economies can
Based on the feasibility study [4], the goal of this master thesis is to compile custom firmware for the XM112 Pulsed Coherent Radar Module, which features a state of the art radar sensor integrated with a microcontroller unit (MCU). This allows the use of custom firmware to check the plausibility of real-time data processing on the radar signals and will lay some of the groundwork for further dev
The next big step to improve prosthetics and make the lives of people living with certain physical disabilities less restricted is to provide them with sensory feedback. Today most feedback systems used in prosthetics are mechanical but with the recent developments in sensors and the processing of their input electrical stimulation is becoming an increasingly promising way to convey touch, pressur
The purpose of this study is to take part in municipal inspectors' experience and perceptions regarding the implementation of waste prevention measures in their daily work. A qualitative interview study, in order to identify areas of improvements and failures in the work of improving waste prevention in the municipality's operations.The hope was to see any differences and similarities for
