• Is the Precariat the New Proletariat? A comparative study of justice in Charles Dickens’s Victorian novel Oliver Twist (1836) and Guy Gunaratne’s contemporary novel In Our Mad and Furious City (2018). 

  Lyche, Hannah Amanda (Mastergradsoppgave; Master thesis, 2023-05-14)

  This thesis, Is the Precariat the New Proletariat? A comparative study of justice in Charles Dickens’s Victorian novel Oliver Twist (1836) and Guy Gunaratne’s contemporary novel In Our Mad and Furious City (2018), argues that the precariat, a term coined by Guy Standing, is a new emerging social class that is represented in modern literature and is a continuation and modern equivalent to the previously ...
• Using High-Resolution Mass Spectrometry to identify lipids in marine bacterial biomass 

  Laugsand, Gøril (Mastergradsoppgave; Master thesis, 2023-05-14)

  Background: BMFishfeed is a cooperative project since 2021 between UiT the Arctic University of Norway, NORCE Stavanger and the University of South-Eastern Norway where the goal is to develop a lipid-rich bacterial meal that can be utilized as fish feed in the aquaculture industry. Carbon-rich waste from an omega-3 production site is used as nutrition for marine bacterial cultures, which are fermented ...

Problemstillingen i denne studien er: Hvilken ledelse praktiseres i en virksomhet der det forventes at medarbeiderne er selvgående, og hvilke barrierer for selvledelse kan vi ...
• Default, time-pressured and incentivized deliberate reasoning 

  Abukar, Fozia Aweys (Mastergradsoppgave; Master thesis, 2021-05-14)

  The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect time-pressure and incentives have on deliberate reasoning. A person’s tendency to engage in and enjoy processes that require reasoning, i.e., their need for cognition, and their algorithmic ability are factors that may moderate performance in reasoning tasks when they are under time-pressure or given monetary reward. Identifying how to increase ...
• Enhancing Prediction of Blast-Induced Ground Vibrations through Machine Learning 

  Jansrud, Guro (Mastergradsoppgave; Master thesis, 2024-01-12)

  This Master’s thesis investigates the application of Machine Learning (ML) in predicting blast-induced ground vibrations in mining, with the aim of sur- passing the precision of the current industry-standard model that utilizes an empirical, regression-based method. The study applied a Deep Neural Network (DNN) model, selected for its capability to consider a broader range of variables than the ...
