It is important to gain a deeper understanding on every aspec
Humans are irrational. What happens when you disregard this fact? When we let only logic and reason be acceptable ways of life? Science is the reason behind most of our advances as a human race, and with this, it has pushed aside spirituality and, on a certain level, the room for fantasy and thought. As a consequence, we are bored, and we seek to satisfy our desire for adventures and dream
his study examines why it is so easy to over snack and how to use design to better control snack intake. The latest findings have shown the increase of snack consumption and the difficulties of controlling snack intake. Many studies have provided convincing findings to reduce snack/food intake after experiments, in the aspects of psychology, cognition, environment factors, interventions and other
The shrinking of kitchen spaces has blurred the boundary of cooking, especially for young renters in small spaces. After talking to friends who have lived with tiny kitchens, I realized that they sometimes prefer cooking with friends outside their kitchenette, or have to buy their own kitchen products to add to the poorly equipped kitchen.

In Sweden, the concept of gender equality is presented as a self-evident and self-explanatory collective goal that is rarely further examined or questioned. Based on the assumption that concepts of gender equality, supposedly self-evident, actually subsume different meanings, the aim of this study was to examine how political players and school authorities articulate the concept of gender equality
Chromatography is a separation technique frequently used in the purication of medicinal drugs. In studies and project at the department of chemical engineering at Lund University a large amount of data have been generated through the use of their research software Orbit and their ÄKTA chromatography system. Methods have been developed for visualization of this data but there is currently no good w
The relevance of grassroots innovations for higher citizen participation in the sustainability transition of electricity systems has been progressively increasing. Renewable energy cooperatives are grassroots innovations that envision an electricity system where citizens become producers and consumers of electricity from renewable sources instead of being dominated by big energy companies dependen
