The objective of this study is twofold. First, the research tries to address whether the selected 13 African countries have gained a comparative advantage on labour-intensive industry (i.e. textile and apparel sector) for the period 1995-2017. The study employs Balassa’s Revealed Comparative Advantage (RCA) indices to address this objective. Second, it attempts to investigate whether there is an e
Recently, the urbanization in China caused much social problem in China, and one of the distinctive features of urbanization is the increasing population density. This thesis aims to discover the relationship between population density and fertility in China by choosing Xinjiang region as an example, other determinants of fertility in Xinjiang region were also examined, such as average income, emp
Popular Abstract in English Darwin’s masterpiece “On the origin of species” describes how populations (one group of individuals from the same species that can easily mate with each other and that occupy the same geographic area) evolve through the process of natural selection, which can be shortly abbreviated as the survival of the fittest. More specifically, the individuals within one population The gene (Pgi) encoding the enzyme phosphoglucose isomerase (PGI) which plays a central role in the main pathways of carbon metabolism has been shown to be of adaptive significance in a wide range of different species. Earlier studies of enzyme electromorph variation in the grass Festuca ovina suggest that variation in cytosolic PGI (PGIC) may be involved in the adaptive response of F. ovina to th
Popular ScienceThe growing need for green processes in industry makes scientists design and develop processes that are more energy efficient than current processes. Naturally, some reactions require a high energy and long time to occur. This will cause high energy consumption and, typically, even more waste production. Therefore, many efforts have been done to design materials that can help to chaThe research work that I describe in my thesis deals with three different heterogenisation approaches for synthesising a heterogeneous transition metal catalyst used for direct C-H activation reactions. The three heterogenisation approaches considered in my research are: (1) heterogenisation of a molecular catalyst on a polymer support using covalent bonds, (2) heterogenisation of a catalyst on a

This project has developed from the site and building conditions in an area of central Boden, a town in the inland north of Sweden. In post-war times, the city grew thanks to the military and regional hospital resulting in the development of the site Prästholmen that was realized true to the modernistic ideal of the time. Since then, Boden together with its inland neighbours, have struggled agai
Socio-economic shocks, technogenic catastrophes, and armed conflicts often have drastic impacts on local and regional food security through disruption of agricultural production and food trade, reduced investments, and deterioration of land and infrastructure. Recently, more research has focused on the effects of armed conflict on land systems, but still little is known about the processes and out
The core of the archive is composed of 512 in-depth interviews with Polish survivors from Nazi concentration camps, conducted shortly after their liberation. All the testimonies are available online. The archive also contains documents and materials brought to Sweden by survivors, and material that the Polish Research Institute compiled as reference resources. As the archive is very large, only a

Popular Abstract in English In the modern world of today, we are surrounded with many electronic devices which offer previously unseen performance. These devices constitute a large part of the everyday consumer electronics such as laptops, tablets, smart phones, etc., but are also used in wide variety of domains such as automotive industry, avionics, medicine, etc. The constant demand for high perIncreasing soft error rates in recent semiconductor technologies enforce the usage of fault tolerance. While fault tolerance enables correct operation in the presence of soft errors, it usually introduces a time overhead. The time overhead is particularly important for a group of computer systems referred to as real-time systems (RTSs) where correct operation is defined as producing the correct re
According to the Act on Accessibility to Digital Public Services (2018:1937), if you have a website in the joint web solution for Lund University, you must provide an accessibility statement for your website. You also need to provide a form for reporting accessibility issues. Ready-made form pages for these are available in Drupal linked to your website, and on this page we will go through how to

Imagine your daily surroundings. Imagine your route to work, the busride, the sidewalk, the buildings, the parks, the beaches, the countryside with the agricultural fields. Now take a minute to think about how much of what you see would exist without human intervention? How much of the landscape is modified in some way to suit the needs of the humans? In this mindset we started to investigate the

In order to secure a sustainable development it is important to switch our resource and energy production from finite sources to bio-based, renewable sources. Biomass is, although not the definitive solution to a sustainable society, a good stepping stone towards it. A lot of agricultural land in Sweden is unused and could be used for cultivation of energy forest. Salix is an energy wood that has
Background: Despite the rapid pace of assistive robotics development, adoption of these has been limited. This raises questions such as: What contributes to this low uptake? What strategies could be employed to increase uptake? What guidance can be found in the literature to inform alternative approaches or directions for development?Objective: This critical narrative review sheds light on the de-
