The focus of this thesis is to examine how the civic identity of the second-generation migrants in Italy is constructed through media representations of migration, citizenship, and national belonging. Previous studies focused on migrants’ integration, which was based on their socio-economic situation, mobility, and assimilation process. I argue that these approaches are insufficient to explain how

Braided rivers are among the most dynamic and ecologically valuable fluvial systems, yet their complexity makes remote sensing-based monitoring particularly challenging. The Tagliamento River in northeastern Italy faces potential future regulation through proposed flood-gate infrastructure near the Dignano Bridge, making the establishment of baseline conditions a priority. This study pursued two o

Automated pollen classification is challenging because visually similar species may differ only by subtle morphological characteristics. This thesis investigates deep-learning models for classifying microscopic pollen-grain images from ten plant species using RGB image crops together with two segmentation-derived size measurements: the major and minor axes of the pollen grain. The study builds on

The aim of this work was to predict the effect of technological parameters on the physical processes of cheesemaking. To this end we developed and modified techniques with which to measure the physical properties of the curd, such as its permeability and its rheological properties. The effects of different factors, such as pH, temperature, the concentration of casein, the geometry of the curd, app

Context: Glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) are cleaved by dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4); plasma activity of DPP-4 may be increased in obesity. The impact of this increase on incretin hormone secretion and metabolism is not known. Objective: The aim of the study was to assess incretin hormone secretion and degradation in lean and obese nondiabet

Two large population-based case-control studies are reviewed. The aim is to determine the effects of HLA, other genetic factors and immune markers (ICA, IAA and GAD65Ab) on the age at onset of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) in 0-34 year olds. The primary HLA risk gene sequence for IDDM was difficult to identify because of the low recombination frequency within the HLA region. The frequ

I juni 2022 röstades ett lagförslag igenom i riksdagen vilket resulterade i att det kostnadsbaserade avdraget för resor till och från arbetet (arbetsresor) ändrades om i grunden till att vara en färdmedelsneutral och avståndsbaserad skattereduktion. Innan de nya reglerna hann träda i kraft den 1 januari 2023 ändrade sig riksdagen och röstade i stället igenom ett förstärkt reseavdrag med höjda schaIn June 2022, a bill was passed through Riksdagen which led to the cost-based write off for traveling to and from your employment (work commute) being changed to accommodate non-specific travel methods and distance based tax deduction. Before the new bills had gone into effect starting from the 1st of january 2023, the Riksdag changed their mind and opted to pass a new bill that allowed for higher

Uppsatsen som har författats behandlar våld mot tjänsteman med särskilt fokus på vilken betydelse kroppskamerabevisning har i tillämpningen av lagrummet. Syftet är att analysera hur våld mot tjänsteman ska förstås och vidare se prov på hur kroppskamera påverkar domstolarnas bedömning av händelseförloppet i praktiken. Arbetet kombinerar ett rättsdogmatiskt arbetssätt med en empirisk undersökning avThis thesis examines the offence of violence against a public official, with a particular focus on the role of body-worn camera evidence in the application of the law. The purpose of the thesis is to analyse how violence against a public official should be understood and to examine how body-worn cameras affect the courts’ assessment of events in practice. The study combines a legal analysis with a

Denna uppsats undersöker huruvida nuvarande kontrollåtgärder gällande efterlevnaden av kollektivavtal är tillräckligt effektiva, samt hur eventuella ytterligare kontrollåtgärder skulle påverka den bristande efterlevnaden av kollektivavtal samt den svenska modellen. Syftet med uppsatsen är att undersöka möjligheter och begränsningar knutna till befintliga och föreslagna kontrollåtgärder gällande eThis thesis examines whether current control measures regarding compliance with collective agreements are sufficiently effective, and how any additional control measures would affect the lack of compliance with collective agree ments and the Swedish model. The purpose of the thesis is to examine the possibilities and limitations associated with existing and proposed control measures regarding comp
