Women’s agency can be defined as the ability to act for yourself, to change the situation for you or for others. This is increasingly important when it comes to women suffering from domestic violence, who are often associated with assumptions of weakness and powerlessness. The professional’s response and support are therefore essential in the process of change for women. The aim of this study was
The official controls performed by a food inspector as well as the written official documents is essential for ensuring food safety and minimizing acute health risks caused by pathogenic microorganisms. It’s important that the operator changes behavior after the inspector has completed the control, in order to maintain good management of the business and of the food. The purpose of this study is t

This study attempts to assess and correct the performance of Integrated Multi-satellite Retrievals for Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM-IMERG) final run daily precipitation product across Sweden. The performance of GPM-IMERG version 6 final run was evaluated against 677 rain gauges in a period from 12 March 2014 to 31 May 2019. Continuous and categorical performance measures were used to char
Paleoekologiska studier har visat sig vara ett bra verktyg för att studera trädetablering, samt dess relation till klimatpåverkan och mänsklig påverkan. Utbredningen av Picea i Sverige under Holocen är väldokumenterad, men kunskapsluckor kring dess spridningsdynamik kvarstår. Denna studie ämnar tydliggöra Piceas etablering i en lokal i sydvästra Sverige, och därpå även bidra till kunskapsbasen om Paleoecological studies have shown to be a good tool for studying the establishment of trees, as well as their relation to climate and human influence. The spread of Picea in Sweden during the Holocene is well documented, but knowledge gaps concerning the spread dynamics still remains. This study aims to clarify the establishment of Picea in a locality in southwestern Sweden, and thereby also cont
Electrochemical oxidation is an effective method in removal of organic pollutant from high salinity waste-water (NaCl), by producing active chlorine at anode or hydrogen peroxide at cathode. To solve the existing problems including low efficiency, high cost and energy consumption, a Ti/SnO2-Sb anode (TSSA)-air diffusion cathode (TSSA-ADC) system was investigated for methyl orange (MO) removal from
Using data recorded in 2011 with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider, a search for evidence of extra spatial dimensions has been performed through an analysis of the diphoton final state. The analysis uses data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 2.12 fb(-1) of root s = 7 TeV proton-proton collisions. The diphoton invariant mass (m(gamma gamma)) spectrum is observed to be in g

Providing healthcare services for the older rural population in South Africa is a matter of availability and accessibility. This study aims to analyse the factors influencing healthcare utilisation among rural older adults in South Africa using Andersen’s behavioural model of health services use. Structural equation modelling (SEM) with confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) technique will be used to
Organiserad brottslighet och kriminella nätverk är termer som har dominerat medier på sista tiden. Det är även något som regeringen har bestämt sig för att lägga fokus på. Regeringen släppte nyligen ett nytt direktiv där de avser att se över de osjälvständiga brotten i 23 kap. BrB för att bättre bekämpa organiserad brottslighet. Den här uppsatsen ämnar göra samma sak, med fokus på brottet underlåtOrganized crime and criminal networks are terms that have been dominating Swedish media in recent times. It is also something that the government have decided to pour their attention on. Recently the government released a new directive in which they intend to revise and possible overhaul the so called “dependent crimes” in the 23rd chap. BrB to better combat organized crime. This essay aims t
Principen om självbestämmande återfinns i internationella rättskällor och även i Sverige och Danmarks nationella hälso- och sjukvårdsreglering. Den är central inom den medicinska rätten och innebär att innan undersökning eller behandling genomförs ska ett informerat samtycke inhämtas från patienten. Självbestämmanderätten konstateras vara obegränsad för en beslutskompetent vuxen patient. Hur starkThe principle of self-determination is found in international legal sources and in the national healthcare regulations of Sweden and Denmark. It is central in medical law and implies that before a medical examination or treatment is carried out, informed consent must be contained from the patient. The right to self-determination is unlimited for a decision competent adult patient. However, the str

The aim of this thesis is to examine how the production and consumption of milk in the modern and post-modern Swedish society can be said to reflect general cultural and societal development.

Det snabba skiftet inom bilindustrin mot elektiska fordon sätter stor press på inte bara biltillverkare, utan på hela försörjningskedjan för elbilar. Detta innefattar litiumjonbattericeller som är det mest moderna sättet att lagra energi i elbilar. Den tekniska utvecklingen av litiumjonceller drivs i stor utsträckning av behoven från biltillverkare. Under det senaste årtiondet har det inneburit at

The construction of high-rise buildings has previously been limited in Sweden. Changes in society in recent years, related to urbanisation, economics and architectural standards have however resulted in a greater interest for the construction of high-rise buildings. When designing high-rise buildings, challenges are faced which often can be disregarded when designing lower buildings. In this diss
