  1. 1. Marginalisation of bisexual asylum seekers: a discourse analysis of Swedish case law

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för globala studier

    Author : Matilda Olstedt; [2024-03-15]
    Keywords : bisexuality; marginalisation; Sweden; asylum procedure; case law;

    Abstract : Bisexual individuals are often construed as ‘half homosexuals’, and thus seen as less vulnerable to sexual minority intolerance and persecution. According to bisexuality scholars, however, bisexual individuals are subjected to double discrimination, as they are marginalised both by the heteronormative society and the homosexual minority group.

    Keywords : PIRLS 2011; reading achievement; SEM; cross-country comparison; teacher and classroom factors;

    Abstract : Purpose. The purpose of this study is to compare teacher and classroom factors that are believed to affect students’ reading achievement scores at the fourth grade level by using PIRLS 2011 dataset. READ MORE

  4. 3. Class and Nonideal Social Ontology : Social Power, Hegemony, and the War of Positions

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Avdelningen för teoretisk filosofi

    Author : Gustav Hedlund; [2024]
    Keywords : class; nonideal; social; ontology; Marx; Gramsci; Burman; economic; institution; structure; Haslanger;

    Abstract : The aim of this thesis is to elaborate the analysis of economic class within Burman’s  ontological framework. To alleviate some shortcomings of Burman’s framework, I will make  use of concepts presented by Italian Marxist Antonio Gramsci. READ MORE

  5. 4. Using Synthetic Data For Object Detection on the edge in Hazardous Environments

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för reglerteknik

    Author : Faraz Azarnoush; Damil Sabotic; [2024]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : This thesis aims to evaluate which aspects are important when generating synthetic data with the purpose of running on a lightweight object detection model on an edge device. The task we constructed was to detect Canisters and whether they feature a protective valve called a Cap or not (called a No-Cap). READ MORE

  6. 5. Gravitational Collapse of a Massless Scalar Field in a Theory of Minimally Modified Gravity

    University essay from KTH/Fysik

    Author : Atabak Fathe Jalali; [2024]
    Keywords : Theoretical physics; astrophysics; modified gravity; minimally modified gravity; gravitational collapse; VCDM; scalar collapse; apparent horizon; numerical relativity; Teoretisk fysik; astrofysik; modifierad gravitation; minimalt modifierad gravitation; gravitationskollaps; VCDM; skalär kollaps; uppenbar horisont; numerisk relativitet;

    Abstract : This thesis explores the spherically symmetric gravitational collapse of a massless scalar field in a minimally modified gravity theory denoted VCDM (V replaces $\Lambda$ in the $\Lambda$CDM abbreviation), a class of theories propagating the same degrees of freedom as general relativity at the expense of broken 4D diffeomorphism invariance. Numerical evolution of the equations of motion reveals that for small initial scalar profile amplitudes, no black hole forms from the collapse. READ MORE
