This thesis investigates diverse visualisations of sound waves and searches for visual evidence of the aural in the images. The invisible often has its own visual culture even though it has never been seen with a human eye. Due to science and its validations, these visuals are perceived as 'true' images. However, they are ambiguous and can always be questioned about its authenticity. This

This essay is an interview study from a social anthropological perspective on midwives’ thoughts and ideas about contraceptives and their patience’s relationship with contraceptives. The interviews are discussed from three main social science theories, performativity, classification and friendly use of power.

Ice covers ten percent of the earth’s surface, seven percent of its oceans and is currently dominating the visual landscape as a key theme of climate communication in the media. Focusing on representations of climate change that implement ice as a key motif, this thesis postulates why and how climate discourse shapes, and is shaped by, the technological, social and institutional production of imag

Ett examensarbete om att vara på väg, i dubbel bemärkelse. Med utgångspunkt i en existerande vandringsled föreslår jag en ny delsträcka, och en möjlig plats för och utformning av ett arkitektoniskt tillägg. Men arbetet handlar minst lika mycket om min personliga process och väg framåt, ibland åt sidan, ibland bakåt. Kanske har projektet utvecklats till ett slags meditation. En personlig undersök

Denna uppsats är en studie om coronakrisens påverkan på en grupp människors resvanor i Sverige samt hur den fram till slutet av maj 2020 har påverkat flygbranschen. Arbetet innefattar en övergripande dokumentstudie som presenteras som tidigare forskning samt en kvantitativ enkätstudie där deltagarna har fått möjlighet att svara på frågor om sina resvanor samt hur dessa har ändrats till följd utav

This thesis’ focus will be on the comic book series Locke & Key in a semiotic and an intertextual reading through a psychoanalytical framework. The comic series is described as a “psychological horror” and a main theme running across the six volumes is good versus evil, and a lot of the narrative is helped by magical keys. The keys have specific uses and help both sides gain more power. The ps

En djupgående analys av tre momentumstrategier J12/K12, J9/K9 och J6/K6 på bolag listade på svenska Large- och Mid Cap under 2000-2019. Studien kunde ej bekräfta några momentumeffekter och resulterade endast i en positivt genomsnittlig avkastning för J6/K6. Vidare indikerar resultaten på att fördelningen av Large- respektive Mid Cap bolag inkluderade i den totala portföljen ej påverkas av det fakt

The thesis represents an instrumental case study exploring the planning and development process of the Norra Sorgenfri neighbourhood in Malmö, Sweden in relation to its envisioned and attested spatial and social inclusivity. The thesis aims to trace the existing dynamics of a growth-equity conflict in the planning and development process of Norra Sorgenfri in relation to the Sustainable Developmen

Mixed support regarding firm capital structure reaction to the Tax Cut and Jobs Act is found. In the main difference-in-differences estimation, support is found for the predictions of trade-off theory after the inclusion of control variables aiming to capture shareholder distribution and capital structure optimization. These results do not prove robust to a more granular matching procedure. A uniq

Traditional research in Strategic management shows limitations in explaining phenomenon in high-tech industries. We find that there is reason to explore how a set of tools, developed in the emerging literature of strategic management, could be integrated into an overall framework that could specifically be applied to high-tech industries. Furthermore, we ask ourselves: how do companies navigat

Syfte: Studiens syfte är att, utifrån ett verkligt fall, analysera hur en krisdrabbad organisation kan agera för att hantera en skandal som utmynnar i de två olika kristyperna, product-harm crisis och moral-harm crisis, och om dessa uppstår samtidigt. Metod: Studien använder sig av en kvalitativ metod samt grundar sig i en induktiv forskningsansats. För att undersöka en specifik händelse i ett vePurpose: The purpose of this study is to analyze how an organisation can act in order to combat a crisis that is subjected to the two crisis types, product-harm crisis and moral-harm crisis simultaneously, in the context of a real life case. Methodology: The study uses a qualitative method as well as an inductive research approach. In order to explore a specific event in a real life context, a si

Bostadsmarknaden har under en längre tid kantats av ett antal problem både på ägande- och hyresmarknaden. Majoriteten av landets kommuner rapporterar en rådande bostadsbrist och effektivitetsförlusten till följd av efterfrågeöverskottet beräknas till 10 miljarder kronor per år. Identifierade problem på bostadsmarknaden är avsaknaden av fungerande flyttkedjor, långa bostadsköer, höga bostadspriser The Swedish housing market has been pressured for a long time with a majority of Swedish municipalities reporting housing shortages. The efficiency loss due to unmet demand is estimated at 10 billion SEK annually. Identified obstacles on the housing market are lack of functioning vacancy chains, long housing queues, high prices and constraining legislation. In 2009, new legislation was introduced

The aim of the degree project is to continue the work of PhD student YuanShuai Qin on creating a fast retuning of the ESS accelerator lattice in the event of an accelerating cavity being offline. The main goal of the project was evaluating and improving the retuning routine created by YuanShuai Qin. The major concern is to maintain beam stability by reducing emittance growth and keeping the beam p

Coherent lensless X-ray imaging techniques provide very high-resolution images not limited by optical components. These techniques record diffraction patterns that can be used for retrieving the phase information of the X-rays passing through a sample. To perform high-resolution imaging with coherent imaging techniques, highly coherent X-rays from high brilliance sources, where high-intensity X-ra

In this project we address the issue of not having a space to be on your own when living in a small space situation as a child. We believe it is important for children’s development and wellbeing to play and discover the world and themselves, sometimes without the supervision of an adult. But how do you find that space if you live in an urban situated apartment, and share bedroom with a sibling? T
