In Sweden, a prevalent topic of discussion revolves around the challenges faced by immigrants when attempting to integrate into the Swedish labor market. The aim of this study was therefore to examine obstacles and opportunities that individuals with a foreign background face and how their actual identity is affected by the establishment and making a career. Employing a qualitative approach with a

The combined rise on the demand for electrical vehicles for road transportation, technological advancements for Lithium-Ion batteries, and limited availability of rare metals, create a need for sustainable solutions for Electric Vehicle Batteries (EVBs) at the end of their first life. This makes companies rethink on how to deal with the increased complexity generated by the exponential growth of E

En stor del av unga vuxnas liv kretsar kring kärleksrelationer. Monogami är fortsatt normen men det finns rum för andra relationsformer att växa fram såsom polyamori, vilket har blivit vanligare i samhället. Samtidigt som majoriteten av unga vuxna vill hitta någon form av kärleksrelation är också frihet en viktig sak i livet. Syftet med uppsatsen är att undersöka vilka idéer som unga vuxna har gäl

Purpose: The main purpose of the research is the overall exploration, evaluation and comparison of the usage and efficiency of corrugated fillers and molded paper packaging solutions in supply chains. Method: The research adopts a qualitative approach using a multiple case study approach using qualitative and quantitative data gathered through interviews, observations, literature, and documentatio

This study aims to explore and analyze the efforts of social workers to facilitate the integration of refugee youth within a municipality's labor market unit. With a mixed methods approach, consisting of semi-structured interviews and shadowing, this study has engaged in a meticulous exploration of the topic at hand. The selection of respondents has been crafted through a combination of conven

This study investigates the potential of urease-positive fungus strains to form calcium carbonate via urea hydrolysis. Besides, we compare the precipitation ability of living and dead biomass of fungus to determine which one has better strontium removal performance. The first hypothesis was that the Sr removal efficiency of living biomass of fungus cultivated without Ca was expected to be lower th

The climate change in northern Europe is not only leading to more extreme weather events but also causing long dry summers. This affects the moisture content of the ground and the vegetation. Causing an increased number of wildfires within Germany posing a risk to the environment, society, and firefighters. Surface fire spread in wildfires can be influenced by several environmental conditions and

The present study investigates the perceptions and concerns of Lund University students as it pertains to their future employment amidst the rapid development of Artificial Intelligence (AI), which is speculated to have a progressive integration in the labor market. Recent studies project both partial and total task substitution in the coming years, which will have a displacement effect on employm

In this thesis, the effective Hamiltonian formalism is studied and applied to two-photon Rabi oscillations in hydrogen. The process occurs when two photons are absorbed or emitted simultaneously. There exist various approaches to model two-photon transitions. In this thesis, we single out essential quantum states using the projection operator technique and solve for the exact dynamics in this ess

Recent social developments have led to an increased interest in borders. Today, borders are understood as highly dynamic phenomena, that are subject to political-territorial and socio-symbolic interaction. The emergence of new interdisciplinary border studies, as well as advances in technological tools, provide an opportunity for archaeology to examine the cultural phenomenon of boundary marking s

The aim of this thesis is to determine what drives the return in cross-border buy-and-build (B&B) strategies, and if the drivers and the return generated in cross-border B&B strategies differ from those in domestic strategies. Drawing upon prior research of B&B strategies and cross-border M&A, the thesis provides an overview of the current studies on value drivers in private equity

Denna studie undersöker markvattenkoncentrationerna av tre metaller (Cu, Pb, Zn) i jord som behandlats med biokol. Fältförsök har utförts av Statens geotekniska institut sedan 2019 eftersom deras projekt BALANCE undersöker den långsiktiga effekten av biokol i PAH- och metallförorenade jordar. Det långsiktiga målet med studierna är att undersöka om biokol är en effektiv saneringsmetod för förorenadThis study investigates concentrations of three metals (Cu, Pb, Zn) in the soil water of biochar remediated soil. Field trials have been conducted by the Swedish Geotechnical Institution since 2019 as their project BALANCE is exploring the long-term effect of biochar in PAH- and metal contaminated soils. The long-term aim of the studies is to investigate whether biochar amendment is an affective r

Climate transition risk pricing in capital markets has emerged as a critical area of research. Using a comprehensive dataset of syndicated loans spanning the years 2010 to 2020, combined with greenhouse gas emission and financial data for borrowers and lenders from three different sources, we conduct an extensive cross-sectional regression analysis to assess how greenhouse gas emissions are priced

This thesis explores the implementation and acceptability of blanket (population-wide coverage of active case finding and prevention) Post-Exposure Prophylaxis (PEP) as a preventive measure for leprosy transmission in the Achham district of Sudurpaschim (Far-west) Province in Nepal. Leprosy remains a significant public health concern in Nepal, with persistent challenges in prevention and control e

Diabetes is a chronic disease that affects lots of people all around the world. It greatly impacts the health of those with it and places many demands on healthcare services. Early detection of diabetes can significantly improve treatment outcomes, lower the chances of future health issues, and help patients to have a better healthier life. In this study, I evaluated the reproducibility of the per

Climate change is not only a pressing global challenge but also a cross-border issue that has far-reaching impacts on communities and ecosystems worldwide. As nations grapple with the urgent need for climate action, it becomes crucial to consider the perspectives and voices of indigenous peoples who have longstanding relationships with their lands and possess valuable traditional knowledge. Indige

I uppsatsen görs en neo-aristotelisk och en ideologikritisk analys på Jimmie Åkesson sommartal i Almedalen 2022. Jimmie Åkesson väljer topiker som överensstämmer med den nationalistiska ideologi han företräder. Invandrarfientlighet, kriminalitet, lag och ordning, omvärldskriser, är de vanligaste topikerna han använder i sitt tal. Han använder sig av de klassiska bevismedlen för att vinna publikens
