Japan currently faces a rapid increase in labor immigrants due to the decrease of the population. The number of immigrant children is expected to increase because of the open labor immigration policy. Although the education of immigrant children is very complex, Hamamatsu city and Kani city have implemented successful educational policies to solve the problems of out-of-school children. This resea
Across the world, there is a call to combat the climate crisis and tackle growing socio-economic inequalities. The Danish Citizens’ Assembly on Climate (CAC) is a case of attempted deliberative democracy seeking pathways to this outcome. This thesis asks how the CAC might catalyse a Danish sustainability transition. With democratic discourse theory and the concept of just sustainability, I conduct
Statistical comparison of single cases to small samples is a methodology that has been extensively used in, for example, cognitive and clinical neuropsychology. This is most often done to determine changes in cognitive processing after an individual has incurred some type of brain damage. In a clinical setting one often wish to infer whether a patient exhibit abnormally low performance on some cog
The discovery of penicillin and the many antibiotics after that, has given our society a heightened sense of confidence when dealing with everything from the everyday bacterial infection to complicated surgical procedures. However, more and more bacterial species are becoming resistant to antibiotics. 33000 deaths attributed to antibiotic-resistant bacteria occurred in Europe in 2015, a number tha
Introduction: This study is focused on the development and comparison of different extraction methods for vitamin D (VD) analysis in liver samples. Background: VD deficiency is related to several diseases, so it is crucial to correctly detect and quantify its concentration in the human body. Despite the existing methodologies for VD analysis, the selectivity and the sensitivity of the methods for
The impact that anthropogenic micropollutants have on the environment is increasingly gaining attention. As a result of this, Sweden, among other countries, is looking towards implementing advanced treatment for micropollutant and pharmaceutical product removal from wastewater prior to discharge into the environment. The leading method to achieve this is ozonation, which unfortunately also creates
This thesis presents an application of machine learning techniques in a search for a high-mass resonance particle decaying into top quark pairs in high energy dijet events using the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider. Top tagging is applied to the dijet events to select the events with top signature and suppress the background, increasing the sensitivity of the search. All the data used
Following the UNHCR:s launch of the #IBelong Campaign to End Statelessness by 2024 in November 2014, a Global Action Plan to End Statelessness: 2014 – 2024 was adopted urging states to undertake ten actions to end statelessness, including to facilitate the naturalization of stateless migrants. While the facilitated naturalization of stateless persons would certainly reduce the occurrence of statel
Germany’s Energy Concept aims to reduce the building sector’s primary energy demand by 80% compared to 2008 levels, of which 20% are to be achieved by 2020. This requires significant investment in integrated renewables and thermal. Public funds cannot finance such transition alone. Therefore, it is crucial to not only understand current investment levels and potential investment gaps, but also to
Celiac disease is a chronic autoimmune disease which affects about 3 % of children in Sweden where most of them have an asymptomatic form making it difficult to detect. The bacterial composition in the gastrointestinal microflora can affect the intestinal barrier properties and the immune systems response to various dietary components. An unfavourable composition of the microflora can activate par
The aim of this thesis work was to investigate and evaluate new possible industrial applications for large welded plate heat exchangers, with heat transfer areas of at least 500 m2. The research has been carried out through thermal design of heat exchangers for a total of nine cases. The nine cases are real-life applications for processes covering the petrochemical, oil & gas, power, and refin
This thesis provides an account of the storage strategies for mitigation of excess electricity production (EEP) from wind energy in the Öresund region of Denmark and southern Sweden, characterized by an increasing share of wind power. Hydrogen is a versatile storage technology with potential in both large and small scale options, and for utilization in several application areas. TIS framework and
Popular summary The environmental and social consequences of predicted climate change are expected to be amplified in urban environments due to their elevated temperatures, which are attributable to a phenomenon known as the Urban Heat Island. As most types of vegetation can provide for cooler air temperatures due to their natural cooling effect, increasing amounts of vegetation in urban areas mig
Large quantities and numbers of organic compounds (OCs) from industries and domestic sources enter the wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) everyday, which is an ever-increasing issue in modern society. In WWTPs, the pollutants are either degraded or emitted to the air, the effluent (water) or the sludge (biosolids). Even though the sludge may contain toxic contaminants and heavy metals, there is a
With a legal dogmatic method, the purpose of this thesis was to examine how Vietnam is fulfilling its legal obligations to support returning human trafficking victims. The Vietnamese human trafficking law was the main research object and was considered in relation to the international standards in support to returnees set in the Trafficking Protocol. It also aimed to identify shortcomings, and ass
Reklam har olika budskap för att påverka och influera oss. Denna uppsats syftar till kvalitativt undersöka hur samhällsideal och normer konstrueras i sex specifika Calvin Klein parfym reklamfilmer. Vidare syftar studien till att studera hur reklamfilmerna använder sig av genusrelaterade konstruktioner och stereotypa bilder. Den här uppsatsen har schematiskt tittat på ett bestämt antal aspekter i a
In May 2011 Tetra Pak launched the first carton bottle for aseptic milk, the Tetra Evero Aseptic (TEA). This Master Thesis aims to give proposals on how the future development of the mechanism working as a dolly when the inductor is making the longitudinal sealing (LS) on the package in the A6 filling machine, should be continued. The current LS mechanism is not fulfilling the requirements in func
This thesis will examine the plausibility of exchanging protocol from a normal server-client to a peer-to-peer solution for over-the-air updates, using a single case study for Sony Mobile Communications AB in Lund, Sweden. It will examine the effort, the risks, and what the actual gain may be comparing to a client-server approach for over-the-air software updates. Sony Mobile today uses a content
This thesis is a descriptive case study of the institutional measures to improve women’s representation in Chile between 2015 and 2022. Women in Chile have historically been underrepresented because of two institutions introduced by former dictator Pinochet: the 1980 constitution and the binomial electoral system. In 2015, Chile reformed its electoral system to replace the binomial system with a
