Investigating Agency: Methodological and Empirical Challenges

The literature on regional development increasingly recognizes that agency is an essential but understudied factor in processes of regional structural change. However, much like the fundamental debates in social sciences about agency and structure, work in this field has often remained theoretical. Investigating the role of agency in regional economic development, systematically and at the micro-l

The Creation of Transnational Memory Spaces : Professionalization and Commercialization

In the age of globalization, local memories of past violence are often dislocated from their material places as remembrance is transpiring in transnational memory spaces. Historical events and commemorative memory practices increasingly transcend national boundaries and change the way memories of historical violence, atrocity, and genocide are represented in the transnational memoryscape. This art

Experimental micromechanics: grain-scale observation of sand Deformation

Strain localisation plays a key role in the deformation of granular materials. Such localisation involves bands of just a few grains wide, which dominate the material's macroscopic response. This grain-scale phenomenon presents challenges for continuum modelling, which is the rationale behind models that explicitly take micro-scales into account. These in turn require micro-scale experimental anal

Neolithic farmers or Neolithic foragers? : Organic residue analysis of early pottery from Rakushechny Yar on the Lower Don (Russia)

The emergence of pottery in Europe is associated with two distinct traditions: hunter-gatherers in the east of the continent during the early 6th millennium BC and early agricultural communities in the south-west in the late 7th millennium BC. Here we investigate the function of pottery from the site of Rakushechny Yar, located at the Southern fringe of Eastern Europe, in this putative contact zon

EDGE : A new approach to suppressing numerical diffusion in adaptive mesh simulations of galaxy formation

We introduce a new method to mitigate numerical diffusion in adaptive mesh refinement (AMR) simulations of cosmological galaxy formation, and study its impact on a simulated dwarf galaxy as part of the 'EDGE' project. The target galaxy has a maximum circular velocity of 21 km s-1 but evolves in a region that is moving at up to 90 km s-1 relative to the hydrodynamic grid. In the absence of any miti

Machine Learning Based Video Editing Toolbox for Automatic Summary of Medical Videos

Inspelningar av medicinska operationer möjliggör utvärdering av kirurgers arbete och kan användas som utbildningsmaterial. Medicinska videor tenderar dock att vara långa och kräver manuell redigering för att förbättra användbarheten. Idag finns det företag som erbjuder att med sin medicinska expertis sammanfatta operationsvideo manuellt. Målet med det här examensarbetet är att skapa en uppsättniRecording of medical procedures makes it possible for medical staff to review their work, learn from the mistakes and produce material for education. Medical videos tend to be long, which has an impact on usability and raises issues concerning memory storage. The aim of this master thesis is to make the material more user-friendly with an intelligent toolbox based on machine learning and image an

Data-Driven Campaigning in Data-Dense Small Multiparty Systems: A Party-Level Analysis

This study examines data-driven campaign (DDC) practices in Sweden. We explore the extent of data-driven practices adopted in Swedish political campaigns, and parties’ motivations to adopt them. Since this is a comparison of domestic parties, we test the importance of four party-level factors—resources, structure, attitudes toward data use, and ideology—using extensive interviews with key campaign

In regards to note-taking by hand or on a computer

Typing your notes on a computer instead of writing them down with a paper and pen is a very practical way of taking notes during class: it's faster, the notes are available on multiple devices and you don’t have to waste time, a few weeks later, when you’re revising for an exam and you can’t decipher your own sloppy handwriting. Which method is actually more efficient in retaining course informati

Rasmus Ahlstrand has defended his thesis on the changing Swedish building sector

Published 11 February 2022 In his doctoral thesis in sociology "Structures of subcontracting: Work organisation, control, and labour in the Swedish building sector", Rasmus Ahlstrand analyses the increased use of subcontractors and explores new forms of work organisation in the Swedish building sector. A key contribution of his study is the concept of masked staffing, which refers to unauthorised
