Syftet med uppsatsen är att ta reda på vilka betydelsefulla ”triggers” som leder till internationell expansion, samt vilka viktiga faktorer som påverkar företagets internationaliseringsprocess. Sex snabbväxande svenska företag intervjuas. Ingen slutsats har kunnat ges generellt för alla företag, men vi har haft tillräckligt med underlag för att få en bra förståelse för vilka som är de vanligaste t
In this thesis we investigate what determines the attitude towards redistribution of the Dutch population. There is wide consensus in the literature that current income alone is a poor predictor of attitudes towards redistribution, but there is no consensus on the best additional predictors. We review several theories covering additional predictors and test these using data from an online panel. T
Christian Zionism is usually characterized as a theological and political movement grounded in literalist bible hermeneutics and End-time speculations that dedicate unwavering support to the State of Israel and the Jewish people. The prophetic element in Christian Zionism has in later years been downplayed for a more down-to-earth focus on social and political commitment to the well-being of the s
This essay is a presentation of the elegy for cities in Andalusí-Arabic poetry. In this essay, which is a presentation, the reader is presented with three full poems of Andalusi-Arabic Elegy for lost cities, brief analyses of the poems in terms of content and style, background information concerning the poems, short biographies of the poets. Different aspects of the Andalusí-Arabic elegy for citie
The WTO is constantly criticized for its lack of accountable activities, here this notion will be considered in relation to the Aid for Trade initiative enforced by the WTO. By evaluating this initiative and the emphasis by WTO on different accountability mechanisms a comprehensive picture on actions to improve accountability is intended to be reached. Through the application of a critical analysi
Circular economy is a solution for how to achieve sustainable development in the world. A circular economy involves the recirculation of products and materials, and aims to avoid the creation of waste. For a product to be recirculated, the recirculation needs to be considered already in the design phase. This thesis is performed in collaboration with Axis Communications and explores how to desi
Europa går över till en cirkulär ekonomi och har höga återvinningsmål. År 2030 ska alla förpackningar på marknaden vara återvinningsbara. Detta är en utmaning, särskilt för plastförpackningar för livsmedel, som vanligtvis består av olika plastmaterial. Kravet från återvinningsindustrin i Europa är att använda monomaterialförpackningar eftersom det är lättare att återvinna. Detta kan bli problematiEurope is transitioning to a circular economy and have high recycling goals. By 2030 all packaging on the market should be recyclable. This is a challenge, especially for plastic packaging for food, which usually constitutes of different plastic materials. The demand from the recycling industry in Europe is to use mono material packaging as it is easier to recycle. This can become problematic for
The formation of biomolecular condensates inside cells often involve intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs), and several of these IDPs are also capable of forming dropletlike dense assemblies on their own, through liquid-liquid phase separation. When modeling thermodynamic phase changes, it is well known that finite-size scaling analysis can be a valuable tool. However, to our knowledge, this ap
We present a microfluidic device that can sort nanosized extracellular vesicles (EVs) based on electrokinetics and Deterministic Lateral Displacement (DLD). The device is made from PDMS using standard soft-lithography, can separate particles down to 200 nm, and what is more, can achieve almost two orders of magnitude higher throughput than an otherwise single electrokinetic DLD device.
Technological innovation increasingly depends on multiscalar actor networks and institutions. However, the developers of many conceptual frameworks explaining innovation success have paid only limited attention to this new reality, due to their focus on regions and countries as agents that shape innovation governance and as containers that provide institutional conditions for innovation success. I
Analysing deadlock-freedom, boundedness and realtime constraints are crucial steps in the design of embedded streaming applications. Dataflow models of computation are often used to analyse such properties at design-time. To that end, scenario-based dataflow techniques isolate the individual operating scenarios of a dynamic application and analyse the executions of the possible scenario sequences.
Lifetime risk of developing breast cancer for Danish women is approx. 9%. Diagnostics are done by mammography, biopsy, and examination. Breast-conserving surgery followed by radiotherapy is standard for treatment of early-stage breast cancer. Studies report unsatisfying outcomes in up to one third of the patients. This review summarises the current surgical techniques. Oncoplastic breast surgery m
Abstract in Norwegian Bakgrunn. Fallulykker er et viktig helseproblem hos eldre. Både balansetesting og registrering av egenrapportert funksjon kan være måter å forutse fremtidige ulykker på. Materiale og metode. I en kohortstudie ble egenrapportert gangfunksjon kartlagt hos 307 tilfeldig utvalgte hjemmeboende kvinner 75 år og eldre. Kvinnene gjennomgikk også testing av balanse og gangfunksjon, oBACKGROUND: Falls represent an important health problem among the elderly. Balance testing as well as registration of self-reported balance problems may be appropriate in order to predict the risk of future falls. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Self-reported walking was assessed in 307 randomly selected women 75 years or older living at home. The women underwent testing of gait and balance and were follow
I denna studie visar vi olika fördelar med vår e-learning-modell, som har „räddat” småspråket rumänska. Vi konstaterar dessutom att denna utbildningsmodell kan tillämpas på vilket annat språk som helst, för att uppnå ett flexibelt, rationellt, kostnadseffektivt och modernt lärande.
Våra genomströmningsresultat visar på en markant positiv utveckling för varje år. Vi ställer oss frågan: Är det den allt större flexibiliteten som vi skapar inom våra kurser som kan vara motivet?
Under många år har konsumenttidningen Råd & Rön haft stort inflytande på de svenska konsumenterna och deras konsumtion. Under närmare 50 år ägdes tidningen av Konsumentverket och dess föregångare Statens institut för konsumentfrågor. Genom studier av Råd & Röns årgångar, konsumentmyndigheternas arkiv samt riksdagstrycket står det tydligt att politiker och konsumentmyndigheter haft stort in
