About 80% of all Swedish social workers are women, which makes male social workers a minority in the Swedish social workers labour force. Research shows that men in women dominated professions get benefits in relation to women. One of the benefits that men possess is that they become more sought after in the women dominated labour market. Our purpose with this study was to examine how male social
Abstract This essay is about integration in the small Swedish municipality of Höör, in the south of Sweden. Using a qualitative research approach in the form of a content analysis, I have con-ducted a study concerning female immigrants from Afghanistan. The theoretical framework in this study consists of theories on integration by Diaz and Beckman. Further theoretical framework in the study consis
Due to a decision made by the Swedish parliament in 2010 all teachers would become required to have a teacher´s license to be qualified to; educate students, grade them and get a permanent employment. The politician’s wanted the license system to be fully incorporated in the Swedish school system by 1th of June 2012. A couple of years later the system has still not been fully enforced. The aim of
This study has looked at eight municipalities in Scania and how they use climate related information in their work with climate adaptation, and what information they would like to have access to in order to take the next step. The municipalities were chosen on the basis of population and are no extreme cases; rather they are examples of an average Swedish municipality. How the usage of information
Analysing the environmental impact connected to biofuels has lately become more important due to the European Commission’s energy and climate target for 2020. These targets includes among others, 20 % reduction of greenhouse emissions and 20 % energy efficiency. One important solution for achieving this climate target is to increase the renewable fuel sector. In order to decide which biofuels that

The purpose of this project was to create a risk model for extended time between major overhauls on steam turbines. The project was created by Siemens Industrial Turbomachinery who develops and manufactures steam turbines and performs maintenance. It is the turbine users who have requested a longer time in order to reduce maintenance costs and increase availability. Prior to the work, external and
Abstract In order to reduce climate emissions from transports and to move towards a more sustainable transport system, many municipalities and regions strive to increase the use of bicycle in cities. This study focuses on the three metropolitan areas in Sweden; Stockholm, Göteborg and Malmö. Their efforts with regional bicycle planning are investigated, looking at factors such as cooperation, resp
The relationship between fertility rate and economic growth is an important subject. This thesis sums up the current research status and use in regression and correlation data analysis, which consists of 120 developing countries in total from 1970 to 2014. On the one hand, total fertility rate has a negative effect on economic growth in the current period. When human capital is scarce, returns of
The steel company SSAB in Borlänge has five plate heat exchangers that they use to cool the process water. The water is used to cool the steel after hot rolling. The exchangers need to be cleaned sometimes because of fouling, that reduces the cooling efficiency. This results in higher energy use and higher costs in the end. The goal of this paper is to create a model of a plate heat exchanger to m
This paper examines the standing of private firms in the post-privatization economic reform in China regarding their access to human capital. The cross-sectional dataset used to test the model is extracted from the World Bank 2012 Enterprise Survey. Using a sample of 2848 Chinese firms of diverse ownership types, the paper studies the effect of firm ownership on human capital, and further studies
The phase field method emerged as a tool to solve free boundary problems with a sharp interface. In previous methods, this involved the computationally inefficient and complicated tracking of a moving interface. The phase field method overcomes this limitation by introducing an auxiliary variable called the order parameter which varies continuously over the whole domain and takes on finite values
Syftet med detta arbete var att designa och bygga en externt driven proteshand. Handen ska helst ha en eller flera funktioner som inte finns hos andra protester. Den mänskliga handen är väldigt komplex, den innehåller över 30 muskler och minst 18 leder. Jämförelsevis har en komplex och rörlig kommersiell protes fem aktuatorer och elva leder, men endast en eller två kontrollsignaler. Allt som allt The purpose of the thesis was to design and build an externally powered prosthetic hand. The hand should preferably have one or more new functionalities not found in other prostheses. The human hand is very complex, it contains over 30 muscles and at least 18 joints. In comparison, a complex and dexterous commercial prostheses has five actuators and eleven joints, but only one or two control signa
The purpose of this study has been to evaluate how women who have left a violent relationship function in their partnering skills. In order to implement the aim with our study, we conducted seven semi-structured interviews with employees and volunteers from women shelters around Skåne. The collected data has been coded and then analyzed based on the theoretical concepts of shame, trauma and attach
Den här texten beskriver processen under vilken jag studerat mig själv som improvisationsmusiker i formatet solopiano. Jag undersöker hur jag skapar bästa möjliga förutsättningar för att känna mig både fri, inspirerad och motiverad, när jag inte får någon musikalisk information från andra medmusiker. Med hjälp av etablerandet av strikta ramar och begränsningar av olika karaktär har jag genomfört iThis paper describes the process during which I’ve studied myself as an improvisational musician in the format of solo piano. I examine in what way I can create the best possible conditions for myself to feel both free, inspired and motivated, when I’m not receiving any musical information from fellow musicians. With the help of different kinds of strict frames and limitations, I have performed im
Den diplomatiska immuniteten har spelat en viktig roll inom den internationella rätten och det diplomatiska arbetet i världen under en mycket lång tid. Principen om beskickningslokalers okränkbarhet regleras i artikel 22 i Wienkonventionen om diplomatiska förbindelser och är enligt sin ordalydelse absolut. Bestämmelsen innebär att mottagarstaten är förbjuden att beträda lokalen utan beskickningschThe role of diplomatic immunity within international law is one of great importance. The principle of inviolability of mission premises is governed by Article 22 of the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations and is in its wording absolute. The provision states that a recipient state is prohibited from entering the premises without the consent of the head of the mission. At the same time, the re
The association between education and health is well documented: more educated individuals live longer and have healthier lives. The incidence of health disparities by education was further accentuated during the Covid-19 pandemic, where the rates of Covid-19 cases and fatalities were higher in communities with less-educated populations. Differences in education, and related differences in health
This study's primary objective was to understand how remittances from international labour migration influences the capabilities of Kenyan returnees from the Middle East. The study examined how migrants and their families used the money they sent home, what kind of education they got, how they got medical care, and how they started businesses. Sen's capacity approach and the new economics
Paper pulp is commonly used for packaging, either molded into a shape or rolled into sheets of paper and turned into cardboard. With international shipping and our general consumption, paper and cardboard from packaging is all around us. The recycle rate of the material is high compared to many other materials, but there might still be more potential for all the used packaging than being toss
Cultural and creative industries have been prominent topics of academic and policymaking discussions over the past two decades. However, existing literature has predominantly concentrated on urban and metropolitan regions, neglecting peripheral regions. By identifying this research gap, this project aimed to contribute to our understanding of cultural and creative industries in peripheral regions,
