Svensk hälso- och sjukvård har under fyra decennier rört sig mot en alltmer digital infrastruktur, där journalsystemet förvandlats från ett dokumentationsverktyg till den infrastruktur kring vilken kliniska arbetsprocesser organiseras. När 19 av 21 svenska regioner förväntas använda samma journalsystem år 2029 väcks frågan om vad ett sådant beroende gör med vården i dess kliniska kärna. Studien sy
Skyddsspår är en banteknisk anordning som används tillsammans med skyddsväxlar för att minska risken för kollisioner mellan järnvägsfordon. Trots att skyddsspår normalt inte trafikeras byggs de med samma standard som huvudspår, vilket innebär användning av nytt spårmaterial och en relativt hög materialåtgång. Syftet med detta arbete har varit att undersöka möjligheterna att minska kostnader och ut
Continuous non-invasive monitoring of respiratory rate in laboratory mice can support research across drug efficacy, sleep, and stress and pain assessment. Established respiratory rate estimation methods exist but many conflict with the 3Rs principle through invasiveness, motion restriction, or animal stress. A cross-method comparison between two non-invasive systems on the same freely-moving anim
Cities are increasingly affected by heat-absorbing surfaces such as asphalt and concrete, which contributes to the urban heat island effect. To lower these effects and improve the urban environment, urban planners, architects and engineers implement vegetation and green infrastructure to reduce surface temperatures. Existing solutions include green roofs, permeable pavements, and public green spac
There is a market gap regarding diversity within plant-based beverages with a complete amino acid profile. For this reason, new ingredients that could be used for the formulation of two plant-based drinks were researched: one combining raw ingredients like seeds, and the other one using protein isolates. Once the final formulations were decided, the resulted drinks included a beverage made of quin
Seaweed has the ability to accumulate elements from the surrounding water, such as radionuclides and heavy metals. This makes them into useful bioindicators; suitable for assessing the pollution in the marine environment as well as the effect of potential future additions of heavy metals and radionuclides. Seaweed content has been examined in many studies, and over long time periods. However, th
Denna masteruppsats gjordes I samarbete med ASSA ABLOY Entrance Systems. Målet var att hitta lösningar för att öka effektiviteten vid installationer av deras SL500-skjutdörr. Eftersom ingen problemformulering eller specifikt fokusområde gavs gällande installationsprocessen utvecklades projektet konstant vartefter vi fick ytterligare insikter gällande installationsprocessen. I takt med att olika prThis master thesis was conducted in collaboration with ASSA ABLOY Entrance Systems. The aim was to find solutions for increasing the efficiency of the installation of their SL500 sliding door. With no given problem within the installation process, or specific part to focus on, the project evolved as more insights were gained into the installation process. As different problems emerged the project
Urban sustainability depends on both green infrastructure and safe, accessible cycling networks, yet these systems often come into conflict. Tree roots can disrupt paved cycle paths, causing surface deformation that compromises user comfort and safety while increasing maintenance demands. This thesis examines the drivers of root-related damage in cycle infrastructure, focusing on interactions betw
This thesis reconstructs a concept of social beauty from the sociological aesthetics of Georg Simmel in order to explore its normative potential for a critique of late-modern forms of sociality. The thesis makes four principal contributions. First, it develops a concept of social beauty as a distinct experience of social integration and vitality emerging in interactions between strangers. These in
Students in Serbia have been protesting and blockading since the lethal accident at Novi Sad train station on 1 November 2024. For the last year and a half, they have persistently asked the state institutions to act in accordance with the law. They refuse to be appeased by the president or scared to submission by forceful interventions by the police. Instead, they invoke their human rights to
Utbyggnaden av solenergi har ökat kraftigt under de senaste decennierna. Både globalt och i Sverige. I takt med utveckling av ny teknik har markbaserade solparker snabbt blivit ett allt vanligare inslag i det svenska energisystemet. Etablering av parkerna väcker frågor om åtkomst till marken och vilken typ av markåtkomst som är mest ändamålsenlig. En fråga är i vilken utsträckning fastighetsbildni
Studien undersökte sambandet mellan upplevt grupptryck i arbetsrelaterade sammanhang och arbetstagande studenters benägenhet att uttrycka avvikande åsikter. En kvantitativ tvärsnittsdesign tillämpades med en online-enkät som empirisk datainsamlingsmetod. Urvalet bestod av arbetstagande universitetsstudenter i Sverige, och datainsamlingen genererade 116 svar. Resultatet indikerade en positiv signifThe study explored peer pressure in an organizational context, and how it relates to the individual's tendency to express deviant opinions. The correlation was examined using a quantitative cross-sectional design, along with a digital survey to gather data. The sample consisted of employed university students in Sweden, and the survey generated 116 responses. The results implied a significant
Denna studie undersöker hur lagerarbetare upplever digital prestationsmätning, scannerstyrning och produktivitetskrav i sitt dagliga arbete. Studien tar sin utgångspunkt i att digitala styrsystem inom lagerverksamhet både kan fungera som stödjande verktyg för effektivitet och struktur, samtidigt som de kan innebära ökad kontroll, övervakning och prestationspress. Syftet med studien är att bidra me
Beer brewing relies on the conversion of starch into fermentable sugars. However, in traditional mashing, 3–37% of starch remains unutilized. This is partly attributed to the protein matrix in barley malt, which traps small B-type starch granules and impedes the breakdown of the starch. This study aimed to investigate if applying hydrodynamic cavitation during mashing improved the conversion of to
This thesis investigates how existing urban environments can be adapted to strengthen climate resilience and improve everyday access to urban rest within dense cities. Urban rest is understood as restorative conditions within the everyday urban environment, where opportunities for pause, recovery, and social interaction can occur across both public and semi-private spaces. The thesis identifies an
Many studies on anaerobic digestion mainly focus on biogas production, while fewer studies focus on the management of the residual material left after the anaerobic digestion which is digestate. Digestate treatment is important to promote nutrient recovery and support circular economy. Membrane filtration can be used for digestate treatment however, the high solids content of digestate causes seve
Stadskärnor har under de senaste decennierna genomgått omfattande strukturella och ekonomiska förändringar. I samband med externhandelns expansion har detaljhandeln i allt större utsträckning decentraliserats och flyttats från stadskärnor till externa handelsområden. Detta har bidragit till ökade utmaningar för stadskärnor, bland annat i form av tomma lokaler, försvagad livskraft och förändrade ko
This thesis assesses the efficiency of the EU Law’s balancing act between the software developers’ copyright protection on their respective computer programs and the software users’ right to repair their defected software based devices. This research necessitates an EU legal method, implying the comprehensive analysis of EU legislation and the case law of the Court of Justice of the European Union
