The issue of understanding how electrical and mechanical systems work and how the components interact is not a trivial issue for most people. To help students understand these systems and thereby increase the knowledge for the future engineers, educational computer games may act as an important learning platform. This project aims at aiding students in their effort to reach knowledge in the area o

In today's market trademarks are extremely valuable. The proprietors need to be creative in order to prevent infringements of their trademarks. However, the CJEU have ruled that proprietors are not allowed to take measures that limit the competition of the Union without any positive effects for the benefit of consumers. The Commission has proposed amendments to the trademark legislations of th

Under våren 2002 undersöktes ett område vid Vanneberga ängar vid Kristianstadsslättens randområde med målet att ge svar på kalkstenens beskaffenhet och dess betydelse för grundvattnets sårbarhet. I området utfördes resistivitets-, självpotential- och VLF-mätningar i syfte att hitta vattenförande zoner i kalkstenen. Kartering av skärningar och slukhål med avseende på karstfenomen gjordes för en dis

The fusion-evaporation reaction involving a 175 MeV S-36 beam and a Sn-124 target was performed, and the emitted gamma rays were observed with the Gammasphere spectrometer. Significant additions to the level scheme of Gd-152 were made in spite of the relative weakness of the alpha 4n exit channel, being only similar to 2% of the total fusion cross-section. The high-spin behavior of Gd-152 was comp

Until recently, the testing of ODE/DAE software has been limited to simple comparisons and benchmarking. The process of developing software from a mathematically specified method is complex: it entails constructing control structures and objectives, selecting iterative methods and termination criteria, choosing norms and many more decisions. Most software constructors have taken a heuristic approa

Autenticitet ses av vissa forskare som en central del av välbefinnande. Mot bakgrund av detta ville vi fördjupa förståelsen för upplevelsen av autenticitet hos svenska gymnasieungdomar. Inom ramen för projektet “Välbefinnande och självkänsla på gymnasiet” på Lunds universitet genomförde vi semistrukturerade djupintervjuer med sju ungdomar i årskurs tre på gymnasiet om deras erfarenheter av att må Authenticity is viewed by some researchers as a central aspect of well-being. Considering this, we aimed to deepen the understanding of the experience of authenticity among Swedish high-school youths. As part of the research project ”Well-being and self-esteem in high school” at Lund university, we conducted seven semi-structured in-depth interviews with third year high school students about their

Earlier the regional social insurance office was exposed to critisism because of bad administration and a lack of providing public service. Among other things the regional social insurance office was attacked because of long investigation hours and indinstinct working methods and was blamed for not being able to solve the unhealth in the society. This lead to the reformation of the previous region

Since the signing of the Treaty on the European Union (TEU) in 1993 the European Union has been base on three &quot&semicpillars&quot&semic. The European Community falls under the so-called pillar I. Under the terms of the TEU the two pillars on the Common Foreign and Security Policy (CFSP) and on Justice and Home Affairs (JHA) differ from pillar I for they do not share the institu

Den här studien syftar till att öka kunskapen kring hur konsumenter förstår och påverkas av det relativt nya fenomenet varumärkesinkongruent marknadskommunikation. Utifrån resultaten från en förstudie utformades fyra fiktiva reklambilder med en varumärkeslogga från ett väletablerat varumärke. Dessa reklambilder utformades i enlighet med tre olika grader av inkongruens. De användes sedan i semi-strThis paper aims to increase the knowledge of how consumers understand the relatively new phenomenon brand incongruency and how it affects them. Based on the result from a pre-study, four fictional advertisements using a logo from a well-established brand were constructed in order to correspond to three different levels of incongruency. These were used in semi-structured interviews in order to exam

Då naturens resurser förbrukas i allt större takt har inställningen till ekologiska produkter blivit ett väldigt aktuellt ämne. Denna studie ämnar undersöka konsumenters inställning till ekologiska varor samt vilka faktorer som motiverar dem till att köpa ekologiska produkter med utgångspunkt från the theory of planned behaviour (TPB). Som komplement till TPB har den emotionella variabeln anticipaThe growing scarcity of the Earth´s natural resources has made organic products into an important topic worldwide. The aim of this study is to examine which factors that motivate individuals to consume organic products, by using an extended version of the theory of planned behaviour which includes the emotional variable anticipated regret. A multiple regression analysis was performed on the data c

The main purpose of this master thesis is to identify the issues concerning the transformation process of a product oriented company into a service oriented company, and how these issues can be overcome. We will exemplify this by developing a dewatering pump rental concept for ABS, and identify the drivers and barriers for ABS when implementing the service oriented rental concept in Sweden and Pol

A study was conducted to see which impact children's emotionality has on encoding social information. Earlier studies have focused on the whole process of social information processing (Crick and Dodge, 1994), especially the cognitive aspects. Lemerise and Arsenio (2000) brought in hypothesis to integrate emotions to this model. Though, there are no previous studies about how emotionality affe

Bakgrund: Många idrottare är i behov av kraft och explosivitet i benmuskulaturen. Ett sätt att utvärdera dessa egenskaper hos en idrottare är genom ett Counter Movement Jump (CMJ). Att använda sig av ett CMJ vid mätning av explosivitet i den koncentriska fasen med MuscleLabsystemet har visat sig vara en reliabel mätmetod. Utbudet av studier som undersöker den excentriska fasen i ett CMJ är begräns

The separation of hemicelluloses, like glactoglucomannans, from lignocellulosic process streams is an important step in building profitable lignocellulosic biorefineries. The most common method for the separation is membrane filtration, however, it has the draw-back of being sensitive to membrane fouling. To better understand the fouling process, it is desirable to be able to model the adsorption

This study aimed to investigate how two Spanish newspapers, El País, and El Español, portrayed human trafficking for sexual purposes, prostitution, and the central actors. To gain insight and a better understanding of this, eleven news articles from each daily press that were published between the years 2021 and 2023, have been analyzed. The focus has been on both the manifest and latent messages

To mitigate climate change and reach Sweden’s goal of becoming carbon neutral by 2045, or at an earlier stage of 2030 for 23 Swedish cities, urgent action is required to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Due to the building sector’s significant contribution to carbon emissions, a crucial aspect in achieving these goals is improving the energy efficiency of existing buildings, as most of these will

The ambition of this essay is to achieve a greater understanding of how adolescence and sport can act as a protective factor and as crime prevention. All the positive effects that sports provide to all kinds of people are something that is even more important for adolescents (Riksidrottsförbundet (2009) Idrotten vill - idrottsrörelsens idéprogram 2016, s.13-14). The commune of Lund took this knowl

Purpose: The high failure rate of M&As is still one of the main puzzles. The purpose of this research is to identify how concepts of failures changed after the global financial crisis and to see the main causes of such failures according to the research in the set time frame. Theoretical framework: Motives of M&A failure are categorized into synergy motive and self -managerial motives. Ba
