  1. 21. WHY WOMEN’S DESCRIPTIVE REPRESENTATION DOES NOT LEAD TO SUBSTANTIVE REPRESENTATION: An interview study of women politician’s perceptions of hindrances for political inclusion in Bolivia

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Statsvetenskapliga institutionen

    Author : Felicia Granlund; [2023-01-30]
    Keywords : Substantive representation; Women; Hindrances; Informal institutions; Bolivia;

    Abstract : The purpose of this study is to understand why a high descriptive representation does not result in a high substantive representation. The theory of politics of presence (Phillips, 1995) suggests that there should be a link between descriptive and substantive representation. READ MORE

  2. 22. Vargen – ”en syndabock för större socioekonomiska problem” : en kritisk diskursanalys av nyhetsrapporteringen av varg på lokal och rikstäckande nivå

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Urban and Rural Development

    Author : Märtha Lindberg; [2023]
    Keywords : diskursanalys; landsbygd; media; varg; representationer;

    Abstract : Uppsatsens syfte är att kritisk granska och analysera nyhetsrapporteringen av rovdjursdiskursen för att urskilja hur olika maktstrukturer mellan stad och land syns och reproduceras i porträtteringen. Särskilt fokus ligger i den mediala bilden av landsbygd i vargfrågan där traditionella diskurser om landsbygd kan reproduceras snarare än utmanas i frågan. READ MORE

  3. 23. Image-driven simulation of brain tumors using a reaction-diffusion mathematical model

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Avdelningen för medicinsk teknik

    Author : Kristos Qiqi; [2023]
    Keywords : brain tumor; cancer; mathematical model; simulation; magnetic resonance images; hjärntumör; cancer; matematisk model; simulering; magnetresonanstomografi bilder;

    Abstract : Brain tumors pose a big challenge in the field of neuro-oncology. Gliomas are the largest subgroup. Magnetic resonance imaging is a non-invasive tool for detecting and characterizing these tumors. Mathematical models, such as the reaction-diffusion equation, can be used for understanding the intricate behavior of gliomas. READ MORE

  4. 24. Understanding the Relationship between Individuals’ Emotional Response and Environmental Protection Intentions : A Quantitative Research in the Context of Public Service Advertisements

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för marknadsföring och turismvetenskap (MTS)

    Author : Ziyi Zhang; Yaxin Xue; [2023]
    Keywords : Emotions; Positive emotional response; Negative emotional response; Intention; Public service advertisement PSA ; Message framing; Environment Protection;

    Abstract : Background: The protection of the environment requires everyone in this world to act together. If more individuals have the intention to protect the environment, then more individuals and a higher probability of taking action to protect the environment. READ MORE

  5. 25. A C++ Matrix library for computing the Gateaux derivative of the Fermi-Dirac operator

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Avdelningen för beräkningsvetenskap

    Author : William Samuelsson; [2023]
    Keywords : C ; Quantum Chemistry; Matrix functions;

    Abstract : Computing the Fermi-Dirac operator is done through recursive polynomial expansions, using the SP2 and SP2 Acc algorithms. The Gateaux derivative is computed for both schemes by mapping the zeroth and first order matrices onto a block upper triangular matrix, which is implemented in Python using Numpy arrays to store full matrices and in C++ by first constructing a basic matrix library to use as blocks in a later created block upper triangular matrix library which only directly references two blocks in a 2 x 2 block matrix.
