The excavation of a low-temperature kiln structure at an affluent Iron Age regional center, Uppåkra, located in southern Sweden, revealed from archeobotanical samples and its context evidence of malting in the process to make beer. Carbonized germinated hulled barley grain (Hordeum vulgare) was recovered from the kiln structure itself and from the surrounding occupationalsurface.

Most of the care in nursing homes is palliative in nature, as it is the oldest and the frailest people who live in nursing homes. The aim of this study was to explore next of kin’s experiences of participating in the care of older persons at nursing homes. A qualitative design was used, based on semi-structured interviews with 40 next of kin, and analyzed using qualitative content analysis.

Introduction: This thesis explores the integration of EEG into wearable devices, emphasizing its evolution from clinical to non-clinical settings and its significance in depression treatment. Method: Employing three EEG systems (Emotiv EPOC Flex, IDUN Guardian, and OpenBCI Cyton), the study investigates their efficacy in non-clinical environments. Experiments focused on optimal brain region identi

Current post-carbon transition trajectories are primarily based on a belief in technical solutions wherein considerations of the citizens’ role in collective mobilisation and transformation are largely overlooked. To this end, the thesis seeks to understand how citizens can become active agents of change within transition efforts and how their political agency can be empowered accordingly. This, b

This thesis examines the contemporaneous effect of a fuel price increase on the fishing effort in the EU’s fleet, comparing the small-scale fleet segment and the large-scale fleet segment. Using quarterly country-level panel data on fishing effort and fuel prices from 2021 to 2023, coefficients for the fuel price elasticity of effort are estimated through two fixed effects regressions using OLS. T

This disquisition explores the possibilities to install a battery storage situated in a gasturbineplant to enable a start up of the gasturbine in the case of a powerfailure. Since powerfailures are rare, the battery will mostly and to a large extent be unused, this creates an economic dilemma. Uniper has taken in and recieved a tender which includes and discribes a battery with a larger storage sy

The thesis argues that the crisis communication framework used by Boeing in the Boeing 737 MAX crisis has limitations. Because the platform public is no longer just passive recipients of crisis information, and regulatory agencies in other countries are not just backgrounds in crisis contexts. In transnational crises, the definition of safety is not determined by a single entity, but rather a proc

The aim of this paper is to discuss and analyze three cases of local parties, often referred to as independent local lists, in Sweden. More specifically the case study consists of three cases of urban local parties which can be described as local parties in municipalities with a bigger than average population. The study contributes to the research by exclusively focusing on urban local parties whi

This thesis examines the interactions and role-changings between the LGBTQIA+ community and the creative industries in Guangzhou, China. Following Florida’s (2003) creative capital theory, and Badgett, Waaldijk, and Rodgers’s (2019) study on LGBT inclusion and economic development, involving semi-structured interviews with LGBTQIA+ individuals working or studying in the creative industries. This q

The French semantic Roland Barthes belives that within our language there exists myths. These myths, being highly suggestiv, creates an alternative lingustic property beyond words actual meaning. However, Barthes belived that myths are hard to apply to political science, and further more, claimng that myths doesnt manifest itself within the socialist ideology. By using Arthur Koestlers masterwork

Renewable energy pursuit and implementation are undoubtedly one of the most important steps in sustainable development across the globe. So far there are several developed high-income countries in the world, that have replaced their fossil fuel-powered electricity systems for renewable energy technologies, however, most of the world still relies on non-renewable energy sources. This research will

Abstract Title: The balance of redeployment: A case study of dental employees’ orientation to temporary downward redeployment and its implications Authors: Julia Carldén & Alice Idéhn Supervisor: Tony Huzzard Submission Date: 21st of May, 2021 Purpose: The purpose of this thesis is to qualitatively examine the phenomenon of temporary downward redeployment, thus gaining a deeper understan

Popular Abstract in English Over thirty years of experience shows that energy efficiency is the easiest, fastest, and cheapest strategy to reduce today’s rampant energy use. To enhance energy efficiency, governmental intervention and business strategies are needed. The question of which governmental policies are the most effective to support energy efficiency remains unanswered. Policy learning anExperience shows that energy efficiency improvements are the most cost-effective path to meeting global energy challenges. To promote energy efficiency, various policy instruments have been in place since the 1970s. Nevertheless, energy efficiency improvements still lag behind their potential in the building sector, which indicates that there is a lack of knowledge about the performance of policie

This paper examines the potential decrease in Swedish green house gas emissions as a result of a more ecologically sustainable household consumption. The consumption changes modelled are; a vegan diet, reduced household electricity use and changed private traveling patterns. To do this, the Swedish version of the software programme Resource and Energy Analysis Program (REAP Sweden) is being use

The dramatic shifts that occurred to the Chinese economy in the recent decades led to the emergence of companies that have fulfilled the internal market needs and now try to compete on the global level.

The main theories applied are connected to water governance, the concept of sustainability and social provision strategies in the form of targeting and universalism. The study was carr

Delegating tasks from a human to a robot needs an efficient and easy-to-use communication pipeline between them - especially when inexperienced users are involved. This work presents a robotic system that is able to bridge this communication gap by exploiting 3D sensing for gesture recognition and real-time object segmentation. We visually extract an unknown object indicated by a human through a p

The datasets presented here enable historical longitudinal studies of micro-level geographic factors in a rural setting. These types of datasets are new, as historical demography studies have generally failed to properly include the micro-level geographic factors.
