Japan’s problem of vacant homes has drawn global media attention, but the situation may not be as dire as once predicted. While a 2015 report estimated a vacancy rate of 20.1 per cent by 2023, the actual figure was 13.8 per cent, thanks in part to policy reforms, awareness campaigns and grassroots efforts. Yet challenges remain amid an ageing population. Japan’s evolving approach offers valuable l
The transnational and transmedial dimensions of media and communication throughout history have not always been adequately recognised. In this research report we propose the concept of entanglement as a means of better understanding the dynamic interconnectedness of media across semiotic, technological, institutional and political boundaries in history.

As a result of a scandal during the fall of 2017, where a famous producer was accused of having committed sex crimes, women who had been sexually harassed were asked to use #metoo in social medias with the purpose of highlighting the widespread occurrence of sexual harassment. The campaign grew into a modern popular movement, which in Sweden evolved into an appeal against sexual harassment at work
24 million people in war-torn Yemen were in 2019 in need of humanitarian aid. Delivery of aid has been hindered by parties to the conflict in what is best described as a strategic weaponization of food. The use of food as a weapon in Yemen requires thorough investigation, but there is a lack of research on the topic. Through a qualitative analysis of the single case of Yemen, this study identifies
Oil is the most traded commodity in the world and is an important part in the global economy. The change in the price of oil has an effect on all sectors of the economy, and the ability to capture its risk is an important research topic. This study calculates the risk of one benchmark crude oil (West Texas Intermediate) over the period 1986-2015 by estimating the Value-at-Risk (VaR) and the Expect

Popular Abstract in English Concrete is one of our most common building materials and is used both for buildings, bridges and other heavy structures. Typically, concrete structures are very durable, but sometimes they need to be strengthened. The reason may be cracking due to environmental effects, that a bridge is to be used for heavier traffic, new building codes, or damage resulting from earthqA 3D nonlinear finite element analysis modelling framework was developed for simulating the behaviour of beams retrofitted with fibre reinforced polymer (FRP). The ABAQUS program was used for this purpose. Concrete was modelled using a plastic damage model. Steel bars were modelled as an elastic perfectly plastic material, with perfect bond between concrete and steel. A cohesive model was used for
The increasing use of cross-laminated timber (CLT) in construction has encouraged research on moisture, fire, acoustics, and energy performance. These areas are crucial for CLT buildings’ functionality and durability and are typically addressed together during design. This study reviewed current knowledge, identifies gaps and explores synergies and conflicts among these areas, while briefly addres

The Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) has a big impact on the national agricultural sector in the EU member states, but the policy can be contentious due to the economic, social and environmental challenges it faces. This essay is testing the hypothesis that these three divisions creates three frameworks under which a divergence in the environmental values can be perceived and comprehended. The cho
In this study we acquire an insight into the songwriting processes of eight female artists and music teachers. We investigate their creative processes, their thoughts on creativity and songwriting and the methods they use when composing. The informants share some of the challenges they face during the process and how to overcome them. Furthermore, we learn about factors enhancing the songwriting a
This paper aims to answer how well affective commitment and leadership efficacy can be predicted by leadership style and gender expression in a voluntary setting. It is expected that invitational leadership, transformational leadership and gender expression predict the two dependent variables. It is also expected that there is a difference within affective commitment and leadership efficacy by sex

In this essay, I make a landscape archaeological analysis of the parishes of Reslöv and Östra Karaby. By studying both the visible and the hidden cultural landscape, with a focus on the Middle Ages, I identify different structures in the landscape. The starting point is the registered monuments that are documented in the Cultural Environment Register at The Swedish National Heritage Board. By loca
A strong brand requires that the whole company reflects one picture. If one part is not well thought out, this can destroy the picture. Elekta is a human care company whose solutions and services expresses trustworthy and caring. The aim of the project was to create packaging strategy that reflects the company’s profile, to implement a new packaging design. To achieve this, an analysis of the com
