The initiating impetus of this project was a frustration over the en-masse inaction experienced in relation to the climate crisis. Although people are aware of necessary actions few are able to act. This project attempts to understand people’s inability to act whilst looking at ways to counter this apathy through behavioral change. Through research on convenience, human behavior and inaction we a
The purpose of the project was prmarily to design an in-store display for a new product planned to be launched by Sudio, a Swedish headphone brand, while leaving the brief open to look for other opportunities as well. The project lead me to research in to point of sale, branding, and trends that are currently effecting the near future, as well as analyze Sudio’s brand before making a few recommend
Valuating a company is traditionally a finance subject that requires a deep analysis of a company’s financial history and projections about its future potential to generate revenue. When it comes to technology startups, valuation becomes difficult. Startups are, by definition, newly established companies with insufficient historical data. Future revenue is typically problematic to forecast as they
Polarization as defined by the Merriam-Webster (2020) dictionary is “a state in which the opinions, beliefs, or interests of a group or society no longer range along a continuum but become concentrated at opposing extremes.” In theory, polarization is a static condition which can impact a particular group. In this thesis, it is argued that polarization is more dynamic than previously implied and t
Amyloid β 42 (Aβ42) is one of the peptides associated with Alzheimer's Disease (AD) due to its aggregation propensity which in the end causes neuronal damage. Much is yet to be understood on how the aggregation processes occurs but most importantly the toxic species responsible have not been identified yet. It is believed that transient oligomeric species are involved in the process. The lack
This research project examines how, by studying principles and systems that occur naturally among plants and animals, lessons can be learned that can be applied in the design of buildings to make them more sustainable. Based on the water shortage prevailing in the Spanish region of Valencia, I explore different ways of working with technical systems that extract water from air as architectural el
In the crowded market of jetboards, design and innovation plays a significant role when it comes to maintaining a competitive advantage. Both, which can be found in the company Radinn’s jetboards. Yet, the hand controller used to control their board does not convey thesame feeling, and is described by the company as not being at par with their main product. This thesis evaluates the controller fo
This project is about taking care of the clothes we have and that we should be able to appreciate them, even when we do not use them. By bringing them out from where they are stored and frame them we can also use them as part of the interior of our homes. This has been done through a design process in which I have investigated and developed our way of storing clothes, based on the classical valet
In this project I have created a practical, decorative and educational system of HDPE tiles and connections as a material for walls and floors in climate-smart housings. In doing so, I want to send a message about changing the perception of plastic as a disposable material and minimize the amount of plastic that ends up in the wrong places. To make the message credible, I analysed politics, arts
This paper examines the relationship between public debt and economic growth of Pakistan. For this purpose, the study employs annual time series data of Pakistan from 1976 to 2018. Auto Regressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) approach is utilized to investigate the short as well as long run relationships between the variables. Results of the Error Correction Model (ECM) confirm that external debt, debt
I uppsatsen undersöks Polismyndigehtens händelsenotiser ur ett klarspråksperspektiv. Syftet är att undersöka om, och i vilken utsträckning, notiserna använder klarspråk. Klarspråksanvändandet undersöks i sex olika aspekter: interpersonell analys, lexikon, disposition, textbindning, handlingars utövare och språklig korrekthet. Undersökningen kommer fram till att polisens yrkesspråk används i notise
The central theme of this thesis is anthropogenic climate change; governments' inability to create an effective, inclusive response mechanism that manages to mitigate anthropogenic emissions; and advocates efforts to coerce States to act by invoking State responsibility in adjudicatory dispute settlement processes. States' failure to act in accordance with scientific risk assessments and
This thesis has researched whether the role conception of Russia has been affected by the Crimean Crisis in 2014. The aim of the study was to fill the current theoretical gap in role theoretical research, and add to the knowledge of how role conceptions change. Its analytical framework was based on role theory, where the notion of role conception was selected. The descriptive case study over time
Den här uppsatsen handlar om nedskräpning, insamling och återvinning av plast på Bali i Indonesien. På grund av osäkra avfallshanteringssystem, brist på kunskap och få incitament för insamling, har plastavfall en tendens att hamna i naturen där det sedan förorenar mark och vatten, och därmed utgör en risk för djurs och människors hälsa. Genom en fallstudie av den vinstdrivande och sociala organisaThis thesis studies plastic littering, collection and recycling on Bali in Indonesia. Due to unsound waste management systems, low awareness and few incentives for collection, plastic waste has the tendency to leak to the environment, where it pollutes land and water, and poses a threat to wildlife and human health. With a case study of the for-profit social enterprise the Plastic Bank that trades
This paper sets out to investigate what effects healthcare privatisation has on healthcare staffing levels and other healthcare metrics in regional Swedish healthcare. Using econometric techniques and relying on public data of public healthcare spending on private actors as a proportion of total regional healthcare spending, this paper finds that privatisation in general has no significant effects
I övergången mellan de triassiska och jurassiska perioderna, för ca 200 miljoner år sedan, inträffade ett massutdöende som bedöms ha koppling till vulkanism i den Centralatlantiska magmatiska provinsen (CAMP). En signifikant ökning av växthusgaser som koldioxid (CO2) eller metan (CH4) och andra flyktiga ämnen, med efterföljande global uppvärmning som följd, föreslås vara den viktigaste drivkrafterAround the Triassic-Jurassic-Boundary time interval, a severe mass extinction event occurred, which has been associated to volcanism of the Central Atlantic Magmatic Province (CAMP). Significant amounts of greenhouse gases as carbon dioxide (CO2) or methane (CH4) and other volatiles are suggested to have been released into the atmosphere, leading to global warming with subsequent impact on the bio
This study aims to explore and analyze how Eurovision Song Contest functioned as an alternative – cultural – battlefield in the Russian-Ukrainian conflict over Crimea. With the use of soft power politics in warfare as the root of interest, this study uses the theories of cultural diplomacy and visual international relations to explore how images may be central to modern-day warfare and conflicts a
This report describes the development of a simulator for the simulations if industrial doors. The project has been conducted at ASSA ABLOY Entrance Systems, industrial door solutions in Landskrona. The purpose of this thesis project was to design and implement a system that can replicate the behaviour of an industrial door on a test-rig. The design should follow requirements set by ASSA ABLOY suc
