I Sverige vänds omkring 50.000 barns liv upp och ner varje år, när deras föräldrar väljer att gå skilda vägar. Det som en gång varit barnets trygghet och hela värld, rivs upp och känns istället skrämmande och otryggt. Föräldrarnas viljor och känslor styr processen, vilket gör att barnen allt som ofta hamnar i kläm. I en majoritet av fallen löser föräldrarna barnets boende, vårdnad och umgänge gemeIn Sweden the lives of about 50.000 children are turned upside down every year, just because their parents have choosen to separate. What has once been the childs secure and safe world, are now ripped apart and frightening instead. The wills of the parents and their emotions, can greatly impact the decisions of the jucidial process which can in turn have a catasprohic backlash on the child. In the

The steel company SSAB in Borlänge has five plate heat exchangers that they use to cool the process water. The water is used to cool the steel after hot rolling. The exchangers need to be cleaned sometimes because of fouling, that reduces the cooling efficiency. This results in higher energy use and higher costs in the end. The goal of this paper is to create a model of a plate heat exchanger to m

Wearable electronics is the technology on everybody’s lips as of 2015. Different companies release smartwatches almost once a month. One of Jayway Syd AB’s clients is the trading bank Nordnet and together they saw an opportunity with trading in combination with smartwatches. This master’s thesis describes the process in which the possibilities around smartwatches and trading were explored with the

This case study explores how members of a large complex organization make sense of its efforts to be more adaptable. Using ideas from institutional theory, we problematize efforts toward adaptability and identify adaptability as an area where organizations engage in some degree of hypocrisy, meaning that they talk about being flexible to stay competitive in a fast-paced environment, but often act

After the Fukushima accident in 2011, Sweden and Germany acted differently. Sweden stressed its nuclear power plant while Germany made a complete turn and decided on a nuclear power settlement by 2022. It raises questions why Germany and Sweden acted differently after the Fukushima accident. The purpose of this thesis is to analyze why a political decision was taken on a nuclear power phase out in

This thesis examines the representation of rape in J. M. Coetzee’s Disgrace (1999), Shani Motoo’s Cereus Blooms at Night (1996), Ian McEwan’s Atonement (2001), and Joyce Carol Oates’ Rape: A Love Story (2003). The analysis of the novels is introduced by a background chapter that outlines the literary history of the rape metaphor and feminist attitudes towards the representation and definition of r

In the current study, the aim was to investigate whether attentional bias—an automatic and nonconscious pre-attentive process of filtering sensory information for emotional relevance—could be induced in normal students, by manipulating levels of stress. In a within-subject experimental design where each participant completed 3 word search puzzles, it was predicted that the ratio at which participa

In this essay will investigate in what way institutions may facilitate financial economic activity. I will focus on a financial secrecy index report written by Tax Justice Network, on Jersey, where they state that Jersey is a tax haven. As a theoretical framework I will use an economical institutional theory, in order to connect the actual institutions on the island with the ongoing economic activ

Enteric neuropathy describes a disease of the bowel caused by anomalies in the enteric nervous system. Patients suffering from this disease have symptoms including nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and pain. As enteric neuropathy is not well understood yet, its diagnosis is a non-trivial task. Research on the enteric nervous system is needed in order to gain a better understanding of this disease, makin

This master thesis presents a suggested Renovation Passport for two typical 1960s single-family houses. Following the recently approved Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EU 2024/1275A), all member states are to implement voluntary Renovation Passports by 2026, which will aid in reaching the 2050 goal of a decarbonized building stock. The aim of Renovation Passports is to provide long-ter

During this report the potassium (K) trend in the Galactic Bulge, with respect to metallicity and various α-elements, has been computed and evaluated by a method of line synthesis on the 7698.96 ̊A KI line (7699 KI), where Non-Local-Thermal-Equilibrium (NLTE) effects have been considered. Specifically, the α-elements of interest are calcium (Ca), titanium (Ti), silicon (Si), magnesium (Mg) and oxy

The European Spallation Source (sv: Europeiska Spallationskällan) kommer att bli den mest kraftfulla spallationskällan i världen när den är i drift vid full kapacitet. Neutronerna som används av vetenskapsmän och ingenjörer är spallerade från ett roterande hjul av volfram, som blir bombarderat av accellererade protoner. Hjulet, även kallat målet, upplever värmeutveckling under spallationsprocessenThe European Spallation Source (ESS) is going to be the worlds most powerful spallation source once in full operation. The neutrons used by scientists and engineers are spallated from a rotating wheel of wolfram, being bombarded by accellerated protons. The wheel, also called the target, develops heat in the process, and is therefore cooled by a helium cooling system. The target primary cooling sy

As Artificial Intelligence (AI) is progressing to take over decision making in different industries, the threat that comes with the use of these systems is also increasing. One major threat is the risk of these systems acting biased, causing discrimination to parts of the population. To tackle the risk of AI systems acting biased it is important to understand how these biases originate in the firs

The term Female Genital Mutilation is often used to describe a process whereby a part or all of the external female genitalia is been cut as a result of factors generally embedded around culture and tradition. This study takes a panoramic view at FGM beginning from a historical perspective when the practice was generally regarded as a cure to the sexual “excesses” of the female to the present day

För att begränsa den globala uppvärmningen krävs en omställning mot en klimatmässigt hållbar livsmedelsförsörjning. Konsumtionen av kött och mejeriprodukter, som idag står för en stor andel av matens klimatpåverkan, behöver minska till förmån för mer resurseffektiva vegetabiliska livsmedel. För att kunna komplettera eller ersätta animaliska näringskällor berikas många växtbaserade produkter med inIn order to mitigate the global warming, a transition towards a sustainable diet is required. Such a transition includes reduced consumption of meat and dairy products, by substituting these with more resource efficient vegetable-based products. In order to meet the nutrient content of animal foods, vegan products are often supplemented with artificial vitamins and minerals. Few studies have inves

Bakgrund: Till följd av att den globala konkurrensen tilltar, ökar komplexiteten, flexibiliteten och produktvariationen inom produktion. Detta leder till att förbättringsprojekt blir allt svårare att genomföra. Händelsestyrd simulering har i litteraturen blivit identifierat som ett verktyg med förmågan att lösa dessa utmaningar, men till följd av att komplexiteten i en produktion ökar, växer ocksåBackground: Following a growing global competition, complexity, flexibility and product variability of manufacturing systems are increasing. This has led to improvement projects becoming more difficult to carry out. Discrete event simulation (DES) has in literature been identified as having the capability to solve these challenges, but as complexity of a manufacturing system increases so does also

Unsustainable use of natural resources has been the basis for economic growth since the industrial revolution. The linear model of extraction, processing, consumption and disposal has brought significant environmental consequences such as resource scarcity, pollution, biodiversity loss and climate change. The use of plastics is one example of unsustainable human behaviour. The use of them has offe

Den 19 februari 2026 presenterade 2025 års förverkandeutredning (Förverkandeutredningen) sitt betänkande. Förverkandeutredningen fick sitt uppdrag av regeringen bland annat till följd av utveckling på unionsnivå. Förslagen är också en del av en större och längre trend som handlar om att fokusera på de ekonomiska drivkrafterna bakom den organiserade och ekonomiska brottsligheten. Bland förslagen iOn 19 February 2026, the 2025 Confiscation Inquiry (the Confiscation In-quiry) presented its report. The Confiscation Inquiry was commissioned by the Government partly due to developments at the EU level. The proposals in the report are also part of a broader and longer-term trend towards targeting the economic drivers behind organised and economic crime. Among the proposals in the report is one

Contemporary discussions on peace implementations indicate that new peace agreements are more comprehensive in promoting peace than previous peace agreements. In contemplation of analyzing whether this idea is justifiable, this thesis utilizes the concepts of peacebuilding and power sharing in order to make use of a comparative study. The comparison between two peace agreements, one from 1972 and
