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
There are many advantages with the development towards Integrated Circuits (ICs) with smaller, faster, and more transistors. However, tighter margins lead to a need of on-chip instruments to test, tune, and configure. These on-chip instruments, which can be in the range of thousands per IC, must be accessed through the life-time. However, access is challenged by complex system hierarchies. When IC
The aim of this study was to examine pollution-induced community tolerance (PICT) of biofilm communities induced by chemical mixtures, characteristic of agricultural aquatic environments. Additionally, the use of biofilms as a natural passive sampler was investigated. In situ biofilms grown on artificial substrate for 4 to 6 weeks from sites located in agricultural areas were used to conduct a PIC
In this project, I start by addressing the issue of the creativity decrease that happen within children when they start school. I wanted to emphasize the importance of creative play to develop problem-solving skills. After I ran some user tests, my project took a new turn and instead I started designing a board game for an older target group. The aim of the game is to improve the visual comm
Maternal Rotavirus antibodies inhibit rotavirus specific B cell responses in offspring For infants, the period following birth is marked by a developmentally immature immune system and increasing exposure to pathogens, however it is also a period in which maternally derived antibodies are still present in the neonate. These antibodies are obtained during pregnancy through the placenta and follow
The construction industry is expected to generate 2.2 billion tons of waste by the year 2025 and was responsible for 39 % of GHG emissions generated by the building processes and energy consumption, in 2017. In 2018, the Swedish construction industry accounted for 21 % of the total GHG emissions (including imported emissions) and 35 % of the total amount of waste in the country. In these past deca
Hur cancerceller ska bli bättre på att göra sig synlig för immunförsvaret Immunförsvaret består utav många olika celler som alla är med i att försvara kroppen från hot, när dom upptäcker en fara finns en del celler som kan eliminera målet, dom kallas T-celler. Ett hot som uppkommer i kroppen är cancer. Det finns många olika orsaker till att cancer uppstår, däribland arvsanlag men också miljöfaktoThe many cases of malignant melanoma and the following relapses after standard-of-care treatment demands inventions on finding new treatment to this cancer disease. One of the reasons for reduced clinical response in melanoma is the downregulation of tumor specific antigens which results in decreased tumor recognition, followed by tumor escape and progression. This study investigated the potential
Transports, and transport infrastructures enable and deliver vital societal functions in today’s society. At the same time, as sustainability becomes more and more important these sectors fail to enable the rate of change that international and national policies calls for. The electrification of the transport sector is a key driver of the future’s sustainable transport system, and the number of el
Previous research has shown that intermediate-advanced L2 learners of Swedish with a non-tonal L1 can use word accents to predict the upcoming suffix as L1 Swedish speakers do. This was also the case of low-intermediate L2 learners who produced word accents after being instructed on the Swedish prosodic system. On the contrary, previous findings on L2 Swedish learners with a tonal L1 exhibited no
The project aims to learn about Chinese young people's choices and attitudes towards cooking and solve their problems in cooking. The solution is presented in the form of a product --- a multifunctional electrothermal cooking appliance. The traditional Chinese saying "Food is god for the people" shows the importance of diet in Chinese life. But today, more and more Chinese young peo

It has been shown that pollinators mediate selection on floral traits of food-deceptive orchids. However, few studies have disentangled the mechanisms linking floral traits to performance and fitness, providing an opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of the process of natural selection. In this project, we studied trait-performance-fitness relationships on three food-deceptive Dactylorhiza o
Physical Properties of Prebiotic Membranes One of the most fundamental questions in science that remains unanswered today is the question of the origin of life on Earth. Life is defined as a chemical system with the capacity of self-replication and undergoing Darwinian evolution. Origin of life research focuses on the transition of physics and chemistry to such a chemical system. For life to ari
Functional Data Analysis (FDA) is a field that has been growing rapidly over the last few decades, with much ongoing research and many recent publications. The focus for Functional Data Analysis is the study of so called functional data, that is data that is assumed to have been generated from a true, underlying function, where we can only observe a sequence of measurements. We propose a method t

Denna uppsats handlar om den delen av kvinnorörelsens historia där kvinnors rätt till högre statstjänster berörs. I takt med industrialiseringen förändrades det svenska samhället och medförde att kvinnor tog plats på arbetsmarknaden på ett helt annat sätt än tidigare. Sedan mitten av 1800-talet var kvinnor aktiva på den statliga arbetsmarknaden och fick tillträde till universitetsstudier i början This essay is about the part of the history of the women's movement where women's right to higher civil service is affected. In time as the industrialization happened, Swedish society changed which resulted in that women took their place in the labor market in a completely different way than before. Since the middle of the 19th century, women were active in the state labor market and gaine
En på senare tid omdiskuterad fråga är om skadeståndsskyldighet vid avtalsbrott i allmänhet förutsätter oaktsamhet från den avtalsbrytande parten eller om skadeståndsskyldigheten bygger på någon annan subjektiv ansvarsgrund. Rätten att göra påföljder gällande vid avtalsbrott är en central del av avtalsrätten och för att skadeståndsskyldighet ska uppstå vid avtalsbrott krävs det att flertalet rekviA frequently debated question is if liability for damages requires negligence from a contracting party that is in breach of contract or if the basis of liability has another form. The right to inflict sanctions on a contract breaching adversary is a key part of contract law and several necessary conditions need to be fulfilled for a party to be liable for damages. The purpose of this essay is to e
Ett gynnande svenskt förvaltningsbeslut får som huvudregel inte ändras. Detta brukar kallas att beslutet vinner negativ rättskraft, eller att det är orubbligt. Till denna huvudregel finns ett antal undantag. Ett av undantagen är om den enskilde vilselett myndigheten och därmed fått ett gynnande beslut som denne inte hade rätt till. Uppsatsen behandlar i vilka situationer svenska myndigheter får åIn Swedish administrative law a favourable decision is, as a general principle, immoveable (res judicata). There are a few exceptions to this general principle, one of which is when an induvial have mislead a government authority and as a result have been granted a favourable decision the individual was not entitled to. This essay deals with the question of in which situations Swedish authorities
