Southeast Asia is a region with an impressive pace of urbanization and with increased health-related problems from urbanization. More countries have understood the importance of working with multifaceted angles to health. The multifaceted manner of understanding includes a developed approach to public policy and Asian studies. This thesis analyzes Healthy Cities projects in Kuching (Malaysia) thro
This thesis set out to assess the role of Chinese government scholarship (CGS) scheme as a public diplomacy tool in enhancing Chinese soft power among Cambodian recipients. The objective was realised by employing a deductive qualitative approach with eight in-depth semistructured interviews. Rooted in Joseph Nye’s original concept of soft power with the awareness of the concept’s political nature,
This study examines the social phenomenon of Naked Attraction and its significance in our society, rather than its relationship to established parameters in our society. The approach in this thesis is to try to understand Naked Attraction from the perspective of our civilization's attitudes towards public nudity. The study is based on a qualitative case-study method with analytical theories of
In this thesis, I explore the health risk communication formulated during the COVID-19 pandemic in Tanzania by identifying it and discussing it in relation to prominent frameworks in health risk communication. To gain knowledge, the data is collected through semistructured interviews with the National Coordinators in health risk communication from the Ministry of Health (MoH) and the United Nation
Skellefteå is calibrating its position in multiple overlapping maps, sometimes located in the centre and sometimes in the periphery (if those are even relevant). It is a place in between places. A geographical periphery of Europe that becomes one of the centres of production of one of the fastest growing industries in the world. The favourable policies to facilitate multimillionaire investments i
Entanglement is a fundamental aspect of quantum computation and quantum information processes. In this work, we analyse the entanglement of two microwave resonators when connected to a semiconductor double quantum dot. The two-mode squeezing operation is a commonly used tool in entanglement creation and, based on this, we utilise the related two-mode two-photon Jaynes-Cummings model in the theoret
This study investigates how art museums of Copenhagen currently (2022) are rediscovering the “forgotten” female artists associated with the Danish modernism. Through discourses in exhibition labels, the methods for curating rediscovering narratives are examined. Specifically, it studies the textual subject positioning of artists in relation to their gender, to the art they create and to the social
Survival for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients has been significantly improved by epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) in patients with EGFR mutations. However, certain subpopulations of NSCLC patients with EGFR wild-type (wt) status have been shown to also respond to EGFR-TKIs. In an effort to stratify EGFRwt tumors, our group discovered in previous
The two by-products lignin, from the paper industry, and zein, from starch production, have shown potential as hydrophobic barriers. Therefore, this study has aimed to produce and in-vestigate the hydrophobicity of lignin or zein dispersions coated on paper. The lignin coatings were made from softwood (spruce) and hardwood (birch) lignin that was extracted using hy-drotropic extraction (HEX) and m
As the atmospheric carbon dioxide keeps increasing, bioenergy with carbon capture and storage (BECCS) is getting increased attention as a measure to reduce the emissions of carbon dioxide. It is especially interesting in Sweden where the extensive paper and pulp industry constitutes point sources of biogenic carbon dioxide. As carbon capture requires energy, it is important to investigate the oppo
Detta examensarbete är en studie som undersöker hur två av den danska Atlantvallens bunkrar skulle kunna genomgå en transformation och återanvändas. Bunkrarna har stått intakta sedan andra världskriget och ligger belägna längs det populära turistmålet Limfjorden på norra Jylland. Minnet om ockupation och krig har präglat bunkern sedan 1940-talet men att avlägsna bunkrarna från de danska stränder
“RÖNNE Å-BB” är ett projekt som undersöker hur en förlossnings -och BB-avdelning kan förbättras vad gäller de rumsliga kvaliteterna och inredningen för att få patienten och dess anhörig att känna sig trygga och bekväma under den tiden de spenderar där. Utifrån egna erfarenheter,litteraturstudier, samtal med både vårdpersonal och patienter har projektet växt fram och landat i en byggnad med kombine
Bakgrund: Delirium har beskrivits som en akut förändring av en patients mentala status och kan drabba alla inneliggande patienter, men förekomsten är särskilt hög bland kritiskt sjuka patienter på intensivvårdsavdelningar. Intensivvårdssjuksköterskan har haft ett särskilt ansvar att uppmärksamma dessa mentala förändringar, men även att jobba preventivt. Syfte: Att sammanställa evidens om icke-farm
På Kullahalvön i nordvästra Skåne möts man av fantastiska vyer och vacker natur. Kontrasterna mellan berg och hav skapar ett dramatiskt och fascinerande landskap. På halvöns norra sida finns en liten by som heter Skäret. Mitt i byn ligger en obebyggd tomt med utmanande terräng, Skrehällan. Med en höjdskillnad på åtta meter, yvig växtlighet och vidsträckt utsikt har tomten en speciell karaktär som Fantastic views and beautiful nature characterize Kullahalvön, a peninsula in northwestern Scania. The contrast between the mountains and the sea create a dramatic and fascinating scenery. On the northern side of the peninsula there is a small village called Skäret. In the middle of the village is an undeveloped plot of land with challenging terrain, called Skrehällan. With a height difference of
Min utgångspunkt har varit de senaste årens trendbrott i boendepreferenser, där storstäderna inte växer i samma takt som tidigare. Allt fler söker sig till platser med stort utbud av småhus, närhet till natur, goda förbindelser till arbete och rimligare kvadratmeterpriser. Till följd av detta har flera mindre kommuner och orter fått en skjuts i befolkningstillväxt. En av dessa kommuner är min egOver the last years the bigger cities in Sweden haven’t grown at the same speed as before. There has been a rising trend of people choosing to live outside of the big cities as they tend to look for areas with proximity to nature, large selection of small houses, good connections to work and more reasonable square meter prices. As a result, several smaller municipalities and towns have received a
Electric road systems (ERS) provide electric power to vehicles en route (dynamic charging) and can reduce the need for onboard battery capacity. This thesis sets out to examine the power demand of an ERS and the integration of energy storage in its power supply for grid load alleviation and backup power. Specifically, the analysis is based on the ongoing project to build a permanent ERS on a 21 km
Data is essential for the competition in digital economy. Online platforms use advanced technology to utilize users’ data to improve competition advantage. The occurrence of data monopoly has become a new type of monopoly in the data-driven market, frequently appearing through abusive practices that lock in users and increase entry barrier.
