Food and the feminine self have always had a profoundly complex relationship. It has been the site of gender oppression, corporeal discipline and more recently, self-pleasure and creativity for women. It is clear that material world foodwork has provided women with a resource to navigate gender ideals, whether from a more traditional or contemporary perspective; this idea extends to foodwork in th
With an increase in temperature (T) and a change in precipitation (P) patterns due to climate change, global conditions for tree growth are changing and shifting. While some areas experience an increase in P, favoring tree growth, many regions are also predicted to show a decrease in P, leading to trends of desertification. This study examines the projected climate change in Nigeria, located in Su
This master’s thesis is written for Tetra Pak with the aim to investigate if pitting corrosion inhibition can be detected for Stainless Steel 316L in contact with dairy products in an experimental setup. The aim was also to continue developing a corrosion test method to facilitate for material selection of food pro- cessing equipment in order to reduce the extent of detrimental pitting corrosion.
This thesis is about European integration, reflected in the problem representations made by the European Union concerning asylum from the Dublin III Regulation (2013) and the Asylum and Migration Management Regulation (2020). To uncover the problem representation, Carol Bacchi's ‘What is the Problem represented to be’ has been adopted as the primary method, followed by a descriptive/comparativ
Title: The Search for Synergies - An exploration of differences in challenges and opportunities in managing sustainable activities across developed and emerging markets Seminar Date: 2024-05-30 Course: BUSN09, Degree project in International Strategic Management Authors: Adam Fornell and Clarissa Nadya Supervisor: Magnus Johansson Keywords: Multinational Corporations, Sustainable Valu
I syfte att åstadkomma den gemensamma inre marknaden, har EU-domstolen fastslagit att medlemsstaterna vid utövandet av sin lagstiftningsbehörighet gällande direkt beskattning måste iaktta unionsrätten. Inom unionsrätten finns etableringsfriheten, vilken kräver att etableringar inte får missgynnas beroende på var inom unionen etablering genomförs. Som huvudregel har det, i de nationella skattesysteIn most national tax legislations within EU, only groups of companies within the same Member State are allowed to consolidate their gains and losses within the group, which clearly treats foreign establishments unfairly and therefore disregards the freedom of establishment. After the Marks & Spencer case, it’s been clear that national tax law that only allows group relief between national comp
The aim of the thesis was to help Tetra Pak with problems that have occurred with the creasing-unit. This unit is one of great importance in the production line for a final package with good quality. The unit is built up in modules, where each module performs the wanted operation. The motion between and in the modules is transferred by a gear transmission. The quality of the packages is decided by
The main goal of this thesis is to determine to what degree can there be observed indications for an overvaluation of Internet companies, which in turn may lead to the next asset price bubble in the Internet industry. By conducting an ex-ante analysis, the current study sets out to add additional knowledge in regards to whether and how well the emergence of a bubble can be determined in advance. T
Uppsatsen behandlar Oscar Wildes The Picture of Dorian Gray ur ett queerfeministiskt perspektiv, med utgångspunkt i Eve Kosofsky Sedgwicks teorier om framför allt erotiska trianglar och homosociala relationer män emellan. Uppsatsen behandlar även hur "maskulinitet" och "femininitet" representeras i romanen och hur dessa representationer påverkar de tre huvudkaraktärernas hierar
The purpose of this study is twofold. Firstly, it aims to contribute to research by creating an understanding of how partners are selected in practice by an open innovation community. Secondly, it aims to contribute to research by building on the theories of causation and effectuation, as well as bricolage - a novel approach to partnership selection. We took an interpretive epistemological stance,
This study describes an aggregate relationship between exchange rate risk and foreign direct investments. The relationship is conducted by panel data estimations, with variables derived from the OLI-framework and prior research. Sample data consists of 36 countries for the time series 1991-2009. Estimations are controlled for country specific variations by using fixed effects, regional dummy varia
Pyrazinamide (PZA) is a potent first-line agent for the treatment of tuberculosis (TB) with activity also against a significant part of drug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains. Since PZA is active only at acid pH, testing for susceptibility to PZA is difficult and insufficiently reproducible. The recommended critical concentration for PZA susceptibility (MIC, 100 mg/liter) used in the Ba
Many extensions of the Standard Model predict the existence of charged heavy long-lived particles, such as R-hadrons or charginos. These particles, if produced at the Large Hadron Collider, should bemoving non-relativistically and are therefore identifiable through the measurement of an anomalously large specific energy loss in the ATLAS pixel detector. Measuring heavy long-lived particles through
A search for a massive [Formula: see text] gauge boson decaying to a top quark and a bottom quark is performed with the ATLAS detector in [Formula: see text] collisions at the LHC. The dataset was taken at a centre-of-mass energy of [Formula: see text] and corresponds to [Formula: see text] of integrated luminosity. This analysis is done in the hadronic decay mode of the top quark, where novel jet
Background: The intervention; "Continuum of Care for Frail Older People", was designed to create an integrated continuum of care from the hospital emergency department through the hospital and back to the older person's own home. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of the intervention on functional ability in terms of activities of daily living (ADL). Methods: The study is a non-blind
Helicobacter species are fastidious bacterial pathogens that are difficult to culture by standard methods. A PCR-denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (PCR-DGGE) technique for detection and identification of different Helicobacter species was developed and evaluated. The method involves PCR detection of Helicobacter DNA by genus-specific primers that target 16S rDNA and subsequent differentiatio
