In today’s design environment we are constantly in movement. Whether it is making models or tracing a sketch, we need to go to specific stations intended for the task. It is not just time consuming but also a problem. Stress might occur due to the fact that you never know whether the light table or the cutting mat will be preoccupied. Designers’ needs are not reached and in the end they m

Comparing contemporary legislation and social debates to films and TV-shows from the 2000s and 2010s, this study shows a change in approach to the subject of sexual assault from an intersectional angle.

This paper examines the impact of ESG performance on corporate bonds spreads. The spreads are determined by the risk factors of the investment and the demand by the capital markets. It is therefore analysed whether ESG affects these determinants. The hypothesis is that increased ESG performance should lead to lower bond spreads because it has a positive effect on risk mitigation and investor deman

With the growing adoption of data analytics and powerful algorithms in organisational decision-making, the ethical concerns surrounding algorithmic bias have become increasingly apparent.

Kan man gestalta teologi i musik? Vi som kyrkomusiker spelar ofta musik som ska frambära ett teologiskt budskap i form av psalmer. Väldigt ofta spelar vi bara det som står i koralboken. Det är funktionellt, men jag tror att vi kan göra så mycket mer. I denna essä kommer jag undersöka hur man kan ta inspiration från J. S. Bachs orgelmusik och använda teologiska motiv i sitt eget liturgiska orgelspeIs it possible to portray theology through music? Church musicians often play music with a theological message, the hymns.

Bach and use theological motives in the liturgical playing and through this strengthe

CERN is the world's largest particle physics laboratory, housing multiple accelerators that rely heavily on magnetic coils. These coils are integral to the generation of powerful magnetic fields essential for particle accelerator experiments, detectors, and other equipment. At CERN, a range of magnetic coils are utilized, many of which are custom-made and located in various research facilities

However, existing literature has predominantly concentrated on urban and metropolitan regions, neglecting peripheral regions. By identifying this research gap, this project aimed to contribute to our understanding of cultural and creative industries in peripheral regions,

The thesis explores an already developed symmetry adapted representation of a two-body interaction with the main goal of extending the method to also include three-body interactions. The method considers a space of shifted one dimensional Gaussian particle densities which are used, together with their corresponding Hartree potentials, to define the respective collective subspaces in which the inte
