Purpose: The purpose of this study is to comprehend female millennial consumers’ perceptions towards lingerie brands that are categorised as ‘Brand Activist Aspirants’ compared to ‘Authentic Brand Activists’. Methodology: As this research focuses on studying consumers’ perceptions, a subjective social constructionist view was taken. By using an abductive approach, an exploratory qualitative resear

The meaning of an exclusive right is that a trademark owner has the right to prevent a third party from using the owner’s trademark. The exclusive right only applies if there is a trademark use, which means that the necessary requirements “use”, “for goods or services” and “in the course of trade” must be met. Since trademark law only gives examples of which actions can be opposed, the ECJ’s state

Though there currently exists numerous ways and suggestions of how to measure emissions in transportation, companies struggle to accurately quantify their greenhouse gas emissions to make sound and green decisions. It is difficult to determine what to measure, how to measure and why to measure in a certain way. Hence, the purpose of this master thesis was to develop a performance measurement frame

Renewable energy pursuit and implementation are undoubtedly one of the most important steps in sustainable development across the globe. So far there are several developed high-income countries in the world, that have replaced their fossil fuel-powered electricity systems for renewable energy technologies, however, most of the world still relies on non-renewable energy sources. This research will

The aim of this study is to examine the complexities one might face as try you implement water policy balancing all the objectives sustainability, by using the example of the free basic water policy in Johannesburg. The main theories applied are connected to water governance, the concept of sustainability and social provision strategies in the form of targeting and universalism. The study was carr

Civic engagement plays an important role in governmental transparency – so how does transparency work in a non-democracy like China where the political and juridical systems repress public participation? Through quantitative methods this paper examines how a selection of citizens in Shanghai, China, make use of environmental information made available through the Chinese government’s Open Environm

Under 1990-talet och fram till 2007 var det vanligt förekommande att byggnader uppfördes med en så kallad enstegstätad fasadkonstruktion. Det byggdes omkring 15 000 – 30 000 bostadshus med denna konstruktion, vilka omfattar 110 000 – 160 000 bostäder. Ett stort antal av byggnaderna uppförda med den aktuella fasadkonstruktionen fick fukt- och mögelskador redan efter några år. År 2007 uppmärksamma

During the past few years we have experienced an extraordinary turbulence in the financial markets. Stock markets in free fall, countless of bankruptcies and government interventions to save huge financial institutions have been regular events. During these times the focal point has been risk management. Poor risk management has been one of the main reasons for the experienced crisis. To be able t

We set out to investigate whether the methodologies used in extreme value analysis are applicable in estimating Value at Risk (VaR) for the spot price returns of the European Energy Exchange (EEX). An initial inspection of hourly data reveals a volatile behaviour where returns of extreme proportions occur frequently. Applying the two traditional extreme value theory methods to the data, Block Maxi

Förtäckta förmåner har länge varit fall för diskussion vad gäller deras hantering, särskilt inom skatterätten. I fåmansaktiebolag är företeelsen vanligt förekommande och därför inriktar sig uppsatsen på regler just vid den bolagsformen. Först och främst redogör jag för de associationsrättsliga regler som behandlar förmåner. I ABL definieras förtäckta förmåner som en ”annan affärshändelse”. UttrycCovert benefits have long been discussed in terms of their management, particularly in tax law. In closely held companies, the occurrence is common, and the essay therefore focuses on rules concerning those kinds of companies. The Companies Act defines covert benefits as "another business event." The term is intended to be compared with the three usual transactions in limited liability

This paper examines the potential decrease in Swedish green house gas emissions as a result of a more ecologically sustainable household consumption. The consumption changes modelled are; a vegan diet, reduced household electricity use and changed private traveling patterns. To do this, the Swedish version of the software programme Resource and Energy Analysis Program (REAP Sweden) is being use

One of the main issues in context of the severe economical changes on the local media market and the measures the media companies are forced to take is how to maintain high quality of news journalism in the local press. There are concerns that the quality of news will decline and content will be commercialized as McManus (1994) describes it as a market-driven journalism when profit becomes the leaThe local media organisations in Sweden have the last years been involved in initiating new model of business (Melesko 2013). They have mainly been based on economical actions, as cut-downs of editorial staff, integration of different pressrooms and expanded co-operation between papers within same media organisations (Nygren 2013). For instance, editorials and cover of culture news has on several

The excavation of a low-temperature kiln structure at an affluent Iron Age regional center, Uppåkra, located in southern Sweden, revealed from archeobotanical samples and its context evidence of malting in the process to make beer. Carbonized germinated hulled barley grain (Hordeum vulgare) was recovered from the kiln structure itself and from the surrounding occupationalsurface.

Particles that are a hundred- to ten thousand times smaller than the width of a hair are commonly referred to as colloidal particles. Colloidal particles occur in a variety of products, like foodstuffs (marmelade and dairy products), construction materials (cement) and stained glass. In water, these particles are strongly affected by the Brownian force: an force that was discovered in 1827 by the Thermoresponsive colloidal microgels expel solvent from their interior upon crossing a threshold temperature, resulting in a significantly reduced size. The collapse of microgels can reversibly switch the interparticle interactions from soft repulsive to attractive, and the accompanying size reduction allows for precise control over volume fraction. Mixing two microgels that collapse at different

Delegating tasks from a human to a robot needs an efficient and easy-to-use communication pipeline between them - especially when inexperienced users are involved. This work presents a robotic system that is able to bridge this communication gap by exploiting 3D sensing for gesture recognition and real-time object segmentation. We visually extract an unknown object indicated by a human through a p
