In this Bachelor thesis Tungelsta, a south Stockholm suburb, is examined regarding its changing landscape, specifically regarding the greenhouses as well as farmland in its southern area. The goal is to find why, how and in what way the landscape of Tungelsta changes. Tungelsta is part of Haninge municipality and was developed by the real estate company Hem på landet AB, already in the first decad
This thesis examines in what way Brexit is constructed as a security threat with regards to the Irish border. If the UK were to leave the EU a border would have to be installed, but installing a border between Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland would violate the Good Friday Agreement. Brexit has resulted in a prolonged process because the politicians cannot agree on a withdrawal agreemen
This thesis aims to give a deeper understanding of the European Union (EU) in international mediation by examining how the EU has practiced its mediation over time. Based on existing theories on international mediation and EU foreign policy, an analytical framework consisting of actorness, resources and mediation strategies has been developed. The framework has then been applied on three different
During the last couple of years Myanmar has attracted international media attention for what is known as the “Rohingya crisis”. Rohingya have been fleeing the country after clashes between Rohingya and Buddhists in Rakhine state which have been followed by increased violence and oppression. The clashes and tensions between the Buddhist majority and the Rohingya minority in the country aren’t new o
Conclusions: Digitalization is a process that will continue to affect management control systems at the case company. All five clusters of the theoretical framework are affected by digitalization which points to the extension of the framework with consideration of information technology. Business partnering leads to added value, better use of time and higher quality and transparency. The case comp
Den Europeiska Unionen utgör ett överstatligt samarbete mellan medlemsstaterna och dess viktigaste mål är en konkurrenskraftig inre marknad. Konkurrensrätten utgör ett vitalt verktyg för EU:s upprätthållande av konkurrensen på marknaden och genomdrivs huvudsakligen av Kommissionen. Privata sanktionsmedel, särskilt konkurrensskadetalan, har emellertid fått ökad betydelse. Denna utveckling har resulThe European Union is a supranational cooperation between its Member States, and its main objective is a highly competitive internal market. Competition law is a vital tool in the protection of competition on the market. It is mainly enforced by the Commission. However, private enforcement through competition damages actions, has become increasingly important. This development has resulted in a Di
Our entire society relies on technologies to function. Critical infrastructure like: water, power, transportation and communication systems amongst other things are technologies connected to the cyberspace. The cyber security is therefore to be considered a matter of national security, hence it also needs to be handle like a national security matter. Many states has come to the conclusion that pub
Right-wing terrorism poses an increasing threat to the safety of people all around the world. This thesis examines terrorist target selection processes in right-wing terrorism with the aim of reaching a deeper understanding on how terrorists operate. In order to do so, I have designed this study as a comparative case study, in which three cases of right-wing terrorism have been analysed. Theoretic
Being the largest bilateral donor for reproductive health assistance, USAID has played a significant role in shaping the global reproductive governance. This thesis is therefore interested in how USAID represents the issue of reproductive health in its development policies. The thesis is designed as a qualitative single case study, analysing USAID’s policy documents about reproductive health from
The premise of this thesis was to explore United Nations construction of gender in their Guidance on gender and inclusive mediation strategies. The Guidance, published in 2017, stem from United Nations Security Council’s Resolution 1325 on Women, Peace and Security in 2000, which stressed the importance of including women in peace processes. Through Lazar’s feminist critical discourse analysis, th
Inspelningar av medicinska operationer möjliggör utvärdering av kirurgers arbete och kan användas som utbildningsmaterial. Medicinska videor tenderar dock att vara långa och kräver manuell redigering för att förbättra användbarheten. Idag finns det företag som erbjuder att med sin medicinska expertis sammanfatta operationsvideo manuellt. Målet med det här examensarbetet är att skapa en uppsättniRecording of medical procedures makes it possible for medical staff to review their work, learn from the mistakes and produce material for education. Medical videos tend to be long, which has an impact on usability and raises issues concerning memory storage. The aim of this master thesis is to make the material more user-friendly with an intelligent toolbox based on machine learning and image an
By the year 2030, the world will need 50% more food, 45% more energy and 30% more water. This growth in demand will increase pressure on our natural resources. Ingenuitive and adaptive thinking will therefore be required in the ways we build our cities. Finland, with its abundance of natural resources: its forest, its lakes and its aquatic resources, as well as its expertise in sustainable resourc
This case is about Starbucks acquisition of Teavana and the events that followed.
In order to achieve sustainable development, there is perhaps not one strategy more often used in contemporary urban planning than density. Many cities have a dedicated densification strategy of their inner city, such as HafenCity in Hamburg or Älvstaden in Gothenburg. However, one critique of contemporary architecture is how new urban developments are becoming generic; more and more similar to ea
Artificiell intelligens (AI) har på senare tid fått en otrolig uppmärksamhet. Det tröttsamma arbetet med att manuellt koda in lösningar i ett program har ersatts av att lära programmen att hitta egna lösningar; detta är en AI-teknik som kallas för maskininlärning. Sådana program tränar upp förmågan att känna igen mönster eller anomalier i data, vilket kan användas för allt från att köra bilar tilMachine learning projects are often constrained by data that is messy, scarce, sensitive or costly to produce. These are issues which could be mitigated by synthetic data. This thesis tries to improve Swedish license plate localization in images by synthesizing images through superimposition, a process that produces data cheaply and in abundance. A generative process algorithmically creates imag
In this report, we model the mechanical properties and fracture behavior of SiC nanowires with different polytypes using Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations. The mechanical properties investigated are the Young’s modulus, the maximum tensile stress and the fracture strain. The three polytype tested are SiC (3C), (2H) and (4H). Tensile tests are performed on bulk and nanowire samples using three com
STYRD KYLNING AV GJUTGODS – ett allt hetare ämne Många industrier står idag inför stora utmaningar angående resurseffektivitet och energi-användning, inte minst de som involverar väldigt energikrävande processer. Metall- och gjuteriindustrin står idag för ungefär 15% av energi-användningen i Sverige. Därför finns det intresse att utreda möjligheterna för att återanvända värme som i dagsläget går tIn this project, the cooling and solidification processes for a Valmet Foundry product have been simulated in order to shorten the cooling time. The study has also been done in cooperation with RISE Swecast in Jönköping, as a part of finding ways to make casting procedures more energy efficient. Another scope of the study is to evaluate how well COMSOL Multiphysics can be used to simulate these ty
