Grandparents’ involvement in their adult children’s families has increased in recent decades, especially in relation to care arrangements around grandchildren. This ‘new army of proxy parents’ calls for the need to critically analyse grandparental care.

We consider the following combinatorial two-player game: On the random tree arising from a branching process, each round one player (Breaker) deletes an edge and by that removes the descendant and all its progeny, while the other (Maker) fixates an edge to permanently secure it from deletion. Breaker has won once the tree's root is contained in a finite component, otherwise Maker wins by building We consider the following combinatorial two-player game: On the random tree arising from a branching process, each round one player (Breaker) deletes an edge and by that removes the descendant and all its progeny, while the other (Maker) fixates an edge to permanently secure it from deletion.

In this critical idea-analysis of the relation between Sweden and the Nordic Council the author sifts out two construcions of identity and tests if there is a discrepancy to be found between what the member state grows within its borders and also sign by being a part of the nordic cooperation. In this study the analysis dive into the origins of scandinavism and nordism and discover touching points

This essay describes different solutions for how to better regulate the market short- and long term, more cost efficiently and environmentally sustainable for emissions trading in the European Union´s trading system EU ETS. We analyse six different approaches to intervene the market. These six are; cancellation of allowances, revision of the reduction rate, backloading, extending demand, price flo

Fairtrade has become a familiar trademark for most consumers in the developed world and represents an option for the buyer to purchase a product that has been certified to follow the ethical standards of ”fair” trade. This branding has received much critique over the last years concerning Fairtrade's ability to improve the lives of small producers in the developing world. This thesis derives f

Precipitates of the topologically close-packed (TCP) phases can significantly impact a material’s mechanical and fracture properties. This theoretical study uses ab initio modeling to investigate the σ phase of WOs, focusing on composition-dependent mechanical and fracture-related properties. We find the effect of Os on WOs σ to be stronger than that of Re in WRe σ phase, with the WOs phase exhibiPrecipitates of the topologically close-packed (TCP) phases can significantly impact a material’s mechanical and fracture properties.

In recent years, plastic waste trade has received increasing attention due to huge amounts ending up in countries with high rates of mismanaged plastic waste and the environmental damage of plastic pollution. The EU has been exporting plastic waste to China for recycling purposes due to insufficient domestic recycling capacities, until 2018, when China decided to ban all imports of plastic waste.

UNLABELLED: Persistent CB1 cannabinoid receptor activity limits neurotransmitter release at various synapses throughout the brain. However, it is not fully understood how constitutively active CB1 receptors, tonic endocannabinoid signaling, and its regulation by multiple serine hydrolases contribute to the synapse-specific calibration of neurotransmitter release probability. To address this questi

This article reports the result of a survey designed to investigate the degree of uncertainty by which a representative sample of Swedish households hold their perceptions and expectations of inflation. The public displays hardly any uncertainty concerning the direction of change of the price level as measured by the ratio of ‘don’t know’ answers.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Abstract Hydrogen embrittlement is a degradation process of mechanical/tribological properties (toughness, wear etc.) of mating steel surfaces. This is caused by the presence and interaction of hydrogen with applied stresses. Therefore, it is important to quantify the hydrogen content which could be dissolved under applied stresses in steel.

Water contamination of lubricants is often considered as

Popular Abstract in Swedish För att ge en god omvårdnad behövs kunskaper om ätproblem som helhet och om möjliga hinder för optimalt näringsintag hos äldre patienter, särskilt de med stroke. Sådana kunskaper behövs eftersom åldrandet i sig självt eller tillsammans med sjukdom, t.ex. stroke och dess följder, kan påverka förmågan att äta och därmed också näringsintaget med ökad risk för såväl undernäThe aim of this thesis was to describe eating difficulties and interventions to improve eating among elderly patients, especially those with stroke, to make comparisons between patients with dysphagia and those without (Papers I & II), those with and without assisted eating (Paper IV), and to analyse the relation between eating difficulties, nutritional status (Papers II-V), pressure ulcers (P

The importance of sustainable and effective energy usage is rapidly growing. SWEP International AB leads the manufacturing of brazed plate heat exchangers that offer effective heating and cooling applications used in various systems and industries. Stud bolts are manually welded onto the heat exchanger surface in their manufacturing process. A project to fully automate this process using an indust

This thesis investigates the evolving political attitudes and behaviours toward democracy among young Kenyans, examining whether they are becoming increasingly apathetic toward democracy or are evolving innovative democratic behaviours. Using a mixed-methods approach, the research combines quantitative data from Afrobarometer surveys with qualitative interviews with Kenyan youths conducted during

Adverse consequences of global climate change increasingly affect society and economic performance. Climate finance structure supports mitigation and adaptation actions that address climate change. Developing economies are adopting climate adaptation measures to cope with the current climate situation and simultaneously promote sustainable development. The interrelation between climate adaptation

This thesis aims to study how voluntarily childfree women express identity in a Swedish society defined by pronatalist norms. Previous research has portrayed childfree individuals as marginalized, stigmatized, and even as an invisible group in Western society. The purpose of this study is to explore evolving narratives by analysing voluntarily childfree women's expression and construction of i

The number of people escaping from wars and conflicts to European welfare states is increasing. Many of them are children; some come as unaccompanied minors (UMs), fleeing without parents or any other responsible family member, entering and living in the country of refuge on their own. The “United Nations” (UN) and its “Convention on the Rights of the Child” from 1989 secures them special protecti
