Sustainable development and sustainability entrepreneurship are the hot topic in the academic literature. With high importance of the context where entrepreneurships operate, it is vital to study sustainability beyond the border of the developed countries. On the one side, transition economies are complex places to start sustainable startups. On the other side, transition economies are lagging beh
The aim of this MSc-project was to investigate whether it is possible to incorporate native cell membrane components from Jurkat T cells into supported lipid bilayers, SLBs, to produce a model membrane system better resembling the native cell membranes in T cells. The procedure of forming native-like SLBs (nSLB) was adapted from an existing protocol and is done through the deposition of hybrid ves

De två Natura-2000 områdena Ravlunda och Revingehed i Skåne, södra Sverige, har genomgått en klimatkänslighetsanalys i denna studie som testade en utvärderingsmetod för relevans att använda inom Länsstyrelsen i Skånes arbete. Analysen gjordes med fokus på ekosystemtjänster identifierad för sanddominerade habitat på de två områdena. Genom användning av en nyligen publicerad report från NaturvårdsveThe two Natura-2000 areas of Ravlunda and Revingehed of Skåne, southern Sweden, have been subject to a climate change vulnerability assessment in this study, which tested an assessment method for relevance for work within the County Administrative Board of Skåne.

Vissa personer skiljer mycket mellan sina känslor, de rapporterar att de känner ilska, frustration, ledsamhet och nedstämdhet, medan andra personer inte skiljer särskilt mycket mellan sina känslor, de rapporterar att de mår bra eller att de mår dåligt. Förmågan att skilja mellan sina känslor kallas emotionell granularitet (EG). Tidigare forskning har kopplat ihop EG med bättre psykisk hälsa och stSome people differentiate a great deal between their emotional experiences, they report experiencing grief, sadness, frustration, anger etc. Other people seem to differentiate between their emotional experiences less, they report feeling good or bad. The ability to differentiate between emotions is called emotional granularity (EG). Previous studies have linked EG to higher psychological well-bein

To investigate the differences in experienced stress and how this was moderated by the personality factors of work locus of control (WLOC) and extraversion between open plan-offices and activity based-offices (ABW), a questionnaire was sent out to the employees of nine different offices. 171 participants answered the questionnaire which consisted of five scales that measured perceived stress, dist
This thesis aims to explore and compare the segregation and the stigmatisation of inhabitants living in so-called ‘disadvantaged neighbourhoods’ through an identity perspective in the two cities Malmö (Sweden) and Lyon (France). I demonstrate that in addition to income factor, identity participates in territorial stigmatisation and reinforces urban segregation, that is the progressive clustering o
District heating systems need to be made more ecient. Lower system temperatures are desirable for the eciency of the entire system, but it also decreases the temperature-margins that can compensate for faults in the system. Therefor it is crucial to decrease these errors. The majority of the improvement potential is on the customer's side of the system; in the substation or in the building'
As the air quality in urban environments is a rising problem, a deeper understanding of how air pollution is dependent on different factors is necessary. In these environments, there are different parameters that effect how the chemical reactions of the pollutants are proceeding. Here the parameters solar radiation, temperature, humidity, emission factors and background concentrations of gaseous a
It is common that oxygen is a limited factor in microbial decomposition of a substance. Biostimulation with oxygen release compound, increase dissolved oxygen in groundwater and stimulate natural decomposition of petroleum hydrocarbon. Many places today are contaminated and using biostimulation with oxygen release compound will probably increase in the future. Today, the knowledge about what happe
Members of three competitive basketball teams (N = 34, male: 14, female: 20, Mage = 17.94, SDage = 2.07) were observed in a within subject-design to reveal the relationships between the leaders’ expressed emotions, the followers’ emotions, and the followers’ performance with an attempt to provide practical implications and further details to the relevant theories.

Human activity in the form of unnecessary consumption is one of the reasons to why we have come to experience climate change. A circular economy is an alternative to the linear economy that promotes consumption, and is based on a theory where waste is turned into resources again in a closed loop. In an ideal circular economy there is no waste and consumption is less dependent on extraction of virg
