Hedersrelaterat våld och förtryck har fått stor uppmärksamhet i samhällsdebat-ten under 2000-talet. Den ökade uppmärksamheten har resulterat i en rad åt-gärder från staten, däribland kriminaliseringar. För att en ny kriminalisering ska vidtas behöver den kunna rättfärdigas. I statliga utredningar och doktrin framförs kriterier och principer som bör vara uppfyllda för att en kriminali-sering ska vaHonor-related violence and oppression has received a lot of attention in Swe-den during the 2000s. The increased attention has resulted in a number of measures from the state, including criminalization. A new criminalization must be justified in order to be established. State investigations and doctrines set out criteria and principles that should be met for a criminalization to be ac-ceptable. In

De senaste åren har diagnosticering av psykiatriska tillstånd utifrån DSM-manualens symtomkriterier varit föremål för debatt i vilken diagnosernas validitet och nytta har ifrågasatts. Lösningar på detta problem har under de senaste årens erbjudits utifrån flera olika angreppsvinklar, både vetenskapliga och dynamiska, med en gemensam förståelse kring att diagnostisering av psykiatriska tillstånd inDuring the past years, the art of diagnosing psychiatric conditions through the DSM manual have been debated and criticized and the validity of the diagnoses have been questioned. Solutions to this problem have during the past few years been offered from several different angles, both scientific and dynamic, with the common understanding that diagnosing psychiatric conditions is no easy task. The

Pesticides are considered to protect crops from damage from example weeds, insects and molds but they are a global problem from environmental and health point of view. A pesticide producing factory in Sweden, known as BT Kemi, mainly produced phenoxyacetic acids, chlorophenols and chlorocresols between 1965 and 1977. Pollutants have been spread into the environment when the factory was active. The

In this rapid era of technology, speed of communication has become an important factor. To overcome this challenge, 5G/NR technology is being explored. One of the ways of doing this is by using the so called millimeter wave spectrum. In order to make usage of the mmWave spectrum, due to the high path loss it introduces, the beamforming technique is adopted. Beamforming is a method used in high fre

Antibodies have for long time dominated the field of affinity proteins in example imaging and therapeutics, due to their high specificity and affinity. However, they have some major drawbacks such as high molecular weight, complex structure leading to instability and high production cost. Therefore, other types of affinity proteins have been engineered, for example the Affibody molecule which is a

Global warming is a very much researched and debated topic in the current period as we can see the effects around us. The literature and discussions have pointed to a surface temperature rise of up to 10°C at the poles and around 4°C-7°C around the equator. The effect is more in the northern hemisphere than in southern hemisphere of our planet Earth. The effects of the warming of our environment o

As part of the development of a process for production of a lignin-rich oil that can serve as a renewable feedstock to existing petroleum refineries, hydrogen assisted depolymerization of lignin in filtered black liquor has been investigated. This process offers the possibility to reduce fossil emissions from transportation by utilization of the largest renewable carbon resource in Sweden, namely

The world continues to be shaped by crises in both new and familiar forms. International and non-international armed conflicts and disasters are barriers to individual wellbeing, development, stability, and in the case of the former, represent a basic challenge to peace. The aftermath of such crises, in which communities can be rebuilt and the fabric of society can be mended, can be a time for rec

In vehicles there are many issues involving the safety and performance. The safety issues are often regulated by governments, whereas the performance by the customer. One solution to both these issues is to take use of an all-wheel drive system, where a coupling engages and disengages driving axles when needed. Such a solution will, through added traction and stability, increase performance and sa

The biological nutrient removal (BNR) processes at Wastewater Treatment Plants (WWTPs) require easily degradable carbon, such as volatile fatty acids (VFAs), to work efficiently. Because of economical, and environmental reasons it is desired to utilize the organic content in the incoming wastewater instead of using an external carbon source. This study investigated the potential of producing VFAs

The incineration furnace at National Veterinary Institute (SVA) in Uppsala, Sweden, runs approximately 2,150 hours a year and generates a large amount of waste heat. Some of this heat is partially recovered, and is used for heating one of the main buildings during the furnace operation. However, around 2,000 MWh is wasted annually due to unavailability of any storage system. This wasted heat is ap

The aim of this project was to investigate suitable prototyping methods to be used during the development of horn loudspeakers. Different methods were tested to investigate how well they replicated the original loudspeaker based on acoustical performance. The methods were also evaluated based on other requirements such as cost, manufacturing process and ability to handle complexes shapes. The meth

Ur ett demokratiskt perspektiv är muntlig framställning viktigt eftersom förmågan att göra sin röst hörd är såväl en rättighet som en skyldighet i ett demokratiskt samhälle. Dessutom är muntlig framställning ett krav för att elever i gymnasiet ska bli godkända i svenska. Att talrädsla är vanligt förekommande bland gymnasielever är således problematiskt. Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka lä

The primary objective of this investigation entailed examining the sexual knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors of young adults aged 18-29 who were enrolled at Lund University. Additionally, the study sought to determine whether a statistical relationship exists between knowledge, attitudes, and practices. Data collection employed a web-based survey method, sent out to a randomized sample of 1,000 s

This master’s thesis evaluates the feasibility of using in situ transmission electron microscopy (TEM) to study the effects of high temperature heat treatments of a coated soft magnetic composite (SMC) sample. SMCs are an increasingly competitive magnetic powder material which finds use in for instance electric motors. A heat treatment following compaction for SMCs is an essential part of manufact

In 2019, migrant seasonal workers from outside the EU constituted approximately twenty percent of the hired workforce within the agricultural sector in Sweden. However, the total share of migrant seasonal workers is assumed to be even greater. During 2020 this figure dropped significantly due to the travel restrictions associated with the COVID-19 pandemic. According to the Federations of Swedish

This qualitative study aims to contribute to a deeper understanding of how companies in the fashion industry communicate sustainability through the label on the garments.

Further, the possibilities of using the label as a tool to achieve a

Bygg- och anläggningsbranschen har störst påverkan på klimatet som bransch. Sverige har som mål att nå noll nettoutsläpp av växthusgaser innan 2045 och masshanteringen är en stor bidragande faktor till den stora klimatpåverkan. Stora mängder massor hanteras och transporteras, där en liten procent återanvänds. Det föreslås därför i branschen att cirkuläritet ska införas för att skapa en mer hållbarThe infrastructure industry, the soil management in particular, has a significant impact on the climate. The great mass movement that occurs in an infrastructure project needs management and transport and in addition there is only a small percentage that is reused. A more circular approach has been suggested to be applied in the industry. A case study was performed of three infrastructure projects
