To keep a high standard of the golf courses intensive maintenance work might be required. To avoid weeds, fungi and diseases on the courses almost half of all golf clubs in Sweden use chemical pesticides. Because of the toxic nature of the the substances it may cause negative impacts on the environment which makes it important to reduce or stop entirely with the use of chemical pesticides. This st
Sammanfattning/Abstract En undersökning om varför elever som studerar på nätbaserad gymnasieutbildning avbryter studierna i förtid. Undersökningen innehåller två delar, en enkät som skickats ut till elever som avbrutit studierna på Korrespondensgymnasiet mellan åren 2013-2015 samt en intervju som genomfördes med elever som besvarat enkäten och tackat ja till att delta i en intervju. Elevernas bakg
This master’s thesis, through the use of linguistic landscape analysis, examines three neighbourhoods in the city of Malmö, Sweden (Västra Hamnen, Möllevången and Rosengård), in order to investigate how multilingualism, specifically as a consequence of globalization, is negotiated within public space. Physical text in public space works both to reflect and reinforce wider social processes and prov
The purpose of the thesis is to analyse the problems of hybrid mismatch arrangements within the EU and how single taxation, which requires income to be taxed once, not more or less, can be secured under EU law. After the amendments of the Parent-Subsidiary Directive (PSD), where an anti-hybrid rule was enacted, the legal environment for companies within the European Union changed. Parent compani
Kriminalvårdares vardagliga arbete hamnar lätt i skymundan då medier ofta väljer att uppmärksamma dramatiska händelser eller skandaler, såsom rymningar. Denna uppsats syftar till att analysera den sociala och emotionella kontroll som råder mellan kriminalvårdare. Då kriminalvården är en arbetsplats fylld av regler krävs det även en viss reglering mellan kollegor. Vi har med hjälp av sju kvalitati
I pågående flyktingkris har hjälporganisationer haft svårigheter att samla in pengar till olika projekt. Att utforma annonser som motiverar till hjälpbeteenden är därför av stor vikt. Tidigare forskning visar att hjälporganisationer som presenterar annonser med en personlig berättelse om ett identifierat offer genererar flest donationer. Studier visar även på att tillföra statistisk information ti
The demand for security services has increased since the ending of the Cold War. Individuals and companies are dissatisfied with the police and their work methods, which has resulted in more and more people choosing other options. The privatization of the society has opened up opportunities for the citizens to have their security needs met by other operators. The purpose of this study is to highli
Mental illness is a growing social problem that has to be understood in order to counteract it. People with mental illness often need some kind of treatment to deal with their problems and finding this treatment is an important part of the rehabilitation process. This process is not always easy and sometime it leads to the person not getting help at all. In this analysis we discuss different ways
Denna uppsats är baserad på en översättning av två medicinska texter om anestesi respektive antibiotika som publicerades 2014 och 2015 på den brittiska webbsidan NHS Choices. I uppsatsen analyseras först källtexten enligt Hellspongs och Ledins analysmodell (1997), med fokus på hur stor roll klarspråksarbetet har för texten. I övervägningar för översättningen görs det klart att texten har översatts
Coronary heart diseases is one of the biggest health problems in the world today. By segmenting the coronary arteries in medical images and examining them, important information about abnormal narrowing and plaque, which are main causes to these diseases, can be found. Manual segmentation of the coronary arteries are time consuming and dependent on the observer, which makes the need of automatic s
This project aims to study the process of electron excitation by a light pulse, a process at the core of many important contemporary and possible future devices. Data from an experiment where the electron dynamics is probed with attosecond laser pulses are analyzed in order to gain insight on the rapid population oscillations within the excited atomic system and simulations are constructed with th
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neuropsychiatric condition containing a large spectrum of developmental disorders. The diagnosed condition is increasing among people today. With this in mind, there is also a growing need for competence and experience with services and organizations providing care for this target group. The aim of this study was therefore to examine what competence and experien
This study aims to investigate how the biodiversity in forests in southern Sweden is affected by extraction of forest fuel and to identify what can be done to preserve the biodiversity while extracting forest fuel. The study is performed on behalf of the energy company Kraftringen, which buys large amounts of forest fuel every year. Firstly, a literature study on how biodiversity in forests is af
Syftet med studien är att se om nyproducerade skolor överstiger budgeten. Det har undersökts om det finns något mönster som ökar förståelsen till diskrepans mellan kalkylerad slutkostnad och det verkliga utfallet. Detta kan skapa möjlighet till erfarenhetsåterföring vad gäller nyproducerade skolor och på så sätt kan eventuell fördyrning minimeras i framtiden. Inledningsvis presenteras den valda fo
Psykisk ohälsa ökar bland barn och ungdomar i alla grupper. Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka hur barns och ungdomars begåvning och grad av internaliserade psykiska symtom utvecklas över tre år samt huruvida begåvning påverkar grad av internaliserade psykiska symtom. Vidare studerades den eventuella inverkan som åldersgrupp respektive kön har på dessa faktorer. Studien baseras på data insa
The aims of this study were to (a) use two automated methods to measure immigration sentiment expressed on Twitter, (b) examine how sentiment changed during the period August 2015 - December 2015, and (c) use 1st person plural pronouns and 1st person singular pronouns as indicators of social and individualistic identity and examine how they moderated sentiment change. All Swedish tweets posted bet
In this thesis, we provide a synthesizable model for supporting design space exploration of application-specific instruction-set processors. The model is written in a high-level of abstraction hardware description language Bluespec System Verilog and is parametrized to support different configurations for use in the design space exploration. To test the model, different applications from the media
