Micro- and nanoscale pollutants dispersed at low concentrations in the environment pose increasing threats to human health and ecosystems. However, investigating the properties of individual particles remains challenging because conventional characterization methods mainly rely on ensemble measurements. Optical tweezers provide a promising approach for single-particle trapping and open new possibi
Retail warehouses are undergoing rapid technological transformation as companies respond to increasing pressure for faster order fulfilment, higher product variety, labour challenges, and improved operational efficiency. Goods-to-person systems have automated major parts of storage, retrieval, and internal material flow, yet the final item-level picking task at the workstation often remains manual
Incels utgör en antifeministisk subkultur vars hat online bidrar till normalisering av misogyni och kvinnovåld. Forskning har genomförts på hur incelidentiteten konstrueras internt på slutna incelforum, medan färre studier har undersökt hur identiteten upprätthålls i konfrontation med utomstående. Denna studie ämnar därför att nyansera förståelsen för incels identitetsskapande från att inte bara v
This thesis explores the visual and cultural representation of worldbuilding in fantasy genre video game trailers. The focus is to find out to what extent video game trailers in the fantasy genre utilise visual tropes and cultural representations to establish an identity as fantasy video games. It is well established that game developers look for inspiration in the real world when creating new one
In this essay, the key elements of elven architecture, its origins and narrative function will be examined and discussed. Despite there being many different varieties of the style, a common ground has been established to visualise elven settlements. Thus, this essay aims to contribute to the understanding of how historical architectural styles are used to create new ones and mediate a story. The r
This thesis titled ‘Aesthetics, Emotions and Time in International law: Re-Reading Jurisdictional Immunities of the State (Germany v. Italy) through Objects, Affect, and Temporality’ investigates how the aesthetic, emotional, and temporal dimensions of international law shape its legitimacy, authority, and meaning. The central object of the analysis is the International Court of Justice’s 2012 jud
The fluctuation of the Svalbard Barents Sea Ice Sheet is relatively well constrained during the Late Weichselian, yet its behaviour before the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) remains elusive. Inter-fjord areas, largely covered by cold-based, non-erosive ice, have a higher preservation potential for older terrestrial records than fjord areas that were dominated by active ice streams during the Last Glac
This thesis examines the conditions under which the triangular simplification mechanism under Article 141 of the VAT Directive may apply to quadrangular chain transactions involving four taxable persons established or identified for VAT purposes across multiple Member States. The triangular simplification mechanism relieves the intermediary operator in a three-party chain transaction from register
Investeringssparkonto (ISK) infördes den 1 januari 2012 som en schablonbeskattad sparform för fysiska personer. I stället för att beskattas för faktiska utdelningar och kapitalvinster erlägger innehavaren en årlig skatt beroende på ett kapitalunderlag som approximativt motsvarar portföljens förväntade avkastning. Systemet är kon-struerat med utgångspunkt i en inhemsk skattemässig kontext. När inneThe Swedish Investment Savings Account (ISK) is a lump-sum taxed savings vehicle introduced on 1 January 2012. Instead of being taxed on actual dividends and capital gains, the account holder pays an annual tax calculated on a deemed capital base approximating the portfolio’s expected return. When foreign listed shares are held in an ISK, a complication arises: the source state’s right to withhold
The social work programme in Sweden is a female-dominated educational environment in which norms connected to femininity may become particularly apparent. The aim of this study was therefore to explore whether gender norms, with a specific focus on the good girl norm, influence female social work students. The study was conducted through qualitative interviews with six female social work students
This study aims to examine how school counselors perceive and understand school absenteeism and to deepen the understanding of the factors that may contribute to the construction of school absenteeism as a problem. The main questions this study aims to answer are how school counselors see and understand the problem of school absenteeism and what they understand to be its potential causes. We inter
Voluntary biodiversity credits (biocredits) are increasingly promoted as a tool to mobilize private finance for biodiversity conservation and restoration. Yet, little is known about how actors understand their purpose and legitimacy and how they expect future biocredit markets to develop under which conditions. This thesis examined shared meanings and diverging expectations among organizational st
Sweden positions digital health as a means of achieving "good and equal health and welfare," yet how these systems are experienced by those positioned outside their design remains insufficiently understood. Employing the concept of affective atmospheres and conceptualising digital health as a spatial artefact, this study uses semi-structured interviews with seven migrants (aged 24-35) in
This study aims to identify differences in media discourses regarding nuclear power during two periods of time following big nuclear political decisions in Sweden (2011 and 2024). Furthermore, it investigates whether there are any connections between the types of nuclear risks highlighted in the media and the public risk perception. The results show that in 2011, the media coverage extensively foc
This study aimed to examine the potential impact of the Housing First model on residents’ substance use and addiction. This was conducted by collecting data on social workers' perceptions of the work related to Housing First and interventions regarding substance use and addiction. The study applied a quantitative approach and was conducted using a web-based survey to address the research quest
This thesis examines dynamic references in EU secondary legislation to standards developed and adopted by the OECD and their compatibility with the European principle of legality of taxation. It aims to provide a proposal on how dynamic references to OECD standards legally function and what legal implications they entail. This understanding of dynamic references is subsequently applied to the Euro
This thesis addresses two research questions: first, how the advertising and investment functions of trademarks impact the threshold for trademark infringement in keyword advertising; second, what is the legal scope of the liability limitations applicable to search engine providers in keyword advertising under EU law and what are the structural consequences of this framework for trademark enforcem
Abstract: To meet the future demand for sustainable and environmentally friendly “green” chemical cleaning solutions for rust removal from naturally oxidized iron alloys, this study showed how an optimized DES (Deep Eutectic Solvents) can enhance descaling performance. A series of experiments were conducted using different combinations of acetic acid, malonic acid, and choline chloride in aqueous
This thesis examines whether the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) can adequately respond to technology-facilitated domestic abuse through its existing framework of States’ positive obligations under the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR). The study focuses specifically on ‘remote coercive control’, a specific form of abuse in which digital technologies are used to exercise ongoing su
Alla stora livsförändringar följs av perioder av tvetydighet och anpassning, i synnerhet pensionen. Idag ser vi stora demografiska förändringar till följd av att människor lever längre vilket gör det möjligt att anta att övergången från arbetsliv till pension har förändrats och fortsatt kommer att förändras. Syftet med uppsatsen är att förstå hur svenska pensionärer upplever och anpassar sig till
