The socio-physical qualities of built environments are, in several ways, of imperative importance for children growing up. The Child-Friendly Cities initiative by UNICEF, an implementation of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, has made local governments strive toward child-friendliness. The participation of children and young people is often the focus of such projects, with a potential
While the energy transition of the EU housing stock is now being intensified with the launch of the Renovation Wave, economic inequalities are increasing in many OECD countries, which has effects on housing-related inequalities and the demand of affordable housing. The Renovation Wave is thus an opportunity to improve housing quality for low-income households, but also entails risks for increased
Diploid potato cultivars that are propagated by True Potato Seeds (TPS) are a new potentially revolutionary way of potato breeding. Conventional breeding is based on highly heterozygous tetraploid potato varieties. Diploid potato breeding by TPS is useful to create inbred lines and from there hybrid offspring. TPS is cheaper, has almost no diseases and is easy to distribute. Diploid potatoes have Are potatoes, grown from seeds, the future? Did you know that you can grow potato plants from seeds? A potato plant has two ways to propagate itself; by the all known potato that we love to eat and by seeds that are grown in tomato-like berries above the ground. These seed producing potato plants that are as well diploid (two copies of every chromosome) instead of conventional tetraploid (4 copie
The decay of solutions to the Klein-Gordon equation is studied in two expanding cosmological spacetimes, namely (1) the de Sitter universe in flat Friedmann-Lemaitre-Robertson-Walker (FLRW) form, and (2) the cosmological region of the Reissner-Nordström-de Sitter (RNdS) model. Using energy methods, for initial data with finite higher order energies, bounds on the decay rates of the solution are obOne of the most profound realisations of physics of the twentieth century is that space and time should be considered as a single whole, a four-dimensional geometric object called spacetime, rather than two separate entities. Gravitation arising from matter manifests itself as curvature of spacetime, and the motion of matter is described by the straightest possible curves on this curved spacetime.
The purpose of this thesis is to study and analyze how benchmarking as a tool is being practiced in the Swedish hotel sector, and also to study what potentials and abilities for learning and development there are. In order to fulfill the purpose we have compared how selected hotels apply benchmarking in practice. We applied a qualitative method with a deductive approach in terms of a multiple cas
This paper is concerned with calculating the branching ratio of the decay A1 −→ Υ + γ of a pseudo-scalar Higgs boson, where Υ is a bound vector meson state of the quarks b and b-bar The results will then be applied to the b. phenomenology of the Next-to-Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model in the case where A1 has a mass in the interval 9.46 − 12 GeV . The paper will review the concept of spontan
The main purpose of this thesis is to discuss the concept of the child’s perspective and in what extent it is met in the Swedish judicial practice, focusing on the time after the custody reform of 2006. The preparatory work concerning the reform holds numerous of guidelines for the definition of the child’s perspective. The foundation of the concept is the respect of the child’s full human dignity

Popular Abstract in English Global invasion of our precious watercourses by cyanobacteria poses great threat to human- and animal health by deteriorating water systems. In fact, this problem is not likely to be solved in the near future as cyanobacteria are associated with pollution of waterways. Consequently, water sources are subject to contamination by natural toxins produced by abundant growthCyanobacteria blooms are a water menace since they produce potent toxins that have been implicated in poisonings and deaths of humans and animals after consumption or contact with cyanotoxin-contaminated water. Of particular concern are cyanotoxins called microcystins, which are hepatotoxic cyclic peptides known to promote development of liver tumors in humans and animals. The high toxicity and in
The region of Scania, Sweden has set the goal to become “Europe’s most innovative region” by 2020 and has realized the importance of promoting and supporting entrepreneurship at the different stages of the entrepreneurial process to achieve this goal. This thesis investigates the structure of the entrepreneurship support in the region, with the aim to discover whether a system of entrepreneurship
Background: Warehouses serve an important role in many supply chains as they can affect business competitiveness in terms of both costs and customer service. However, the cost of operating a warehouse is often high due to the presence of many non-value adding activities. Lean is a philosophy that can be used to eliminate waste and enable cost reductions in companies. By implementing Lean warehousi
To fully decarbonise the energy system, electrification is needed as one of the most important strategies for reducing carbon dioxide emissions in Sweden and Europe. The deployment of renewable energy resources plays a central role in electrification and will continue to increase. In January 2024, Svenska Kraftnät published a long-term market analysis with four future scenarios regarding the devel
In football, as well as in most sports, the question about politics being within it are highly debated. Questions related to nationalism, homophobia, racism, and sexism are all seen as permeating the sport. This is simultaneously topics that is facing resistance, especially through anti-racism-, and pro-LGBTQ+ campaigns. Although, the question remains, and football organisations are trying to deal
This essay studies the relationship between institutional transparency and political trust. The study focuses on 27 countries in Europe. The existing theory regarding the relationship emphasizes different views. Some theorists claim that the two concepts are positively correlated whilst others claim the opposite. Hence, the study’s purpose: to test which of the theorists predict the correct outcom
