The vertical shear instability and the streaming instability are two robust sources of turbulence in protoplanetary disks. The former has been found to induce anisotropic turbulence that is stronger in the vertical than in the radial dimension and to be overall stronger compared to the largely isotropic turbulence caused by the streaming instability. In this study, we shed light on the dust diffus
This study presents a detailed investigation of the Velika Vrbica loess-palaeosol sequence, situated in the Wallachian Basin of northeastern Serbia, with the aim to reconstruct palaeoenvironmental changes spanning Marine Isotope Stages (MIS) 3 to 1. Using optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) dating, low field magnetic susceptibility (χlf), and mass accumulation rates (MARs), we have developed a

By all accounts, the global climate as well as the Swedish climate will become warmer for the foreseeable future, with consequences that have largely not been experienced before in northern countries. More intense and longer heat waves will become a more common phenomenon, and with that, Swedish municipalities need to be prepared for the effects. As municipalities are responsible for much of the b
Credit rating agencies’ influence on capital markets has been a highly debated topic in the last decades, as their power and impact have not been established with clarity. Different characteristics have been found especially between larger and smaller markets, which makes it interesting to investigate how the Nordic market as a smaller market reacts to credit changes. This study investigates how t
High-rise buildings are exposed to both static and dynamic loads. Depending on the method used and how the structure is modelled in finite element software the results can vary. Some of the issues and modelling techniques, introduced below, are investigated in this Master’s thesis. Dynamic effects such as resonance frequencies and accelerations are considered. The variation in static results from
National Action Plans on Business and Human Rights (NAPs) are public policy instruments through which states operationalize the United Nations Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights (UNGPs). Despite their proliferation, the role of domestic institutional actors in shaping NAP development and content remains empirically understudied. This thesis asks: in what manner, and to what extent, do
INTRODUCTION: This study examined trends in socioeconomic inequalities in obesity among Portuguese women and men using data from National Health Surveys (NHSs).METHODS: We analysed weighted data from adults aged 20-64 years from the 1998/1999 (n = 20,581), 2005/2006 (n = 13,088), 2014 (n = 7284), and 2019 (n = 5959) NHSs. Obesity was defined as body mass index (BMI) ≥30 kg/m 2, based on self-repo
Control systems used by manufacturing companies today are often centralized. In such a system, the controller is concentrated to one location. As the production lines in Tetra Pak becomes more and more complex with growing costumer demand, a centralized approach becomes more and more inadequate. Agent-based technology provides a way to implement a desirable, robust and decentralized manufacturing
This paper studies the effect of corruption on four selected health outcomes, by using cross- country panel data, containing the 36 member states of OECD. The time period stretches from 1995 to 2017, extending upon previous studies by including data from more recent years. In order to estimate the effects of corruption, the paper uses Ordinary Least Squares, fixed effects and two-way fixed effects

In the past decade, development aid has played an increasingly important role in China’s global strategy. As China pursues more assertive foreign policies through initiatives like the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) and the expansion of Comprehensive Strategic Partnership (CSP), its interpretations of diplomatic relations are distinctive from the traditional frameworks shaped by western countries.
Russia has utilized hybrid warfare techniques to expand its influence and obtain key strategic objectives during its annexation of Crimea in 2014, and its 2015 military intervention in Syria. The increased global isolation Russia experienced proceeding its annexation of Crimea, prompted a strategic pivot towards the African continent for resources and new alliances. This motive was further intensi
