Denna studie syftar till att förstå vilken inverkan gentrifiering kan ha på tillgången till det offentliga rummet, och till att förstå om tillgängligheten skiljer sig mellan socioekonomiska grupper eller stadier av gentrifiering. Studien fokuserar på Vesterbro, Köpenhamn, och utgår från tre offentliga rum. Platserna Maria Kirkeplads, Halmtorvet och Flæsketorvet studerades med hjälp av observationeThis study aims to understand the impact gentrification might have on the access to public space, and to understand if it differs between socioeconomic groups or stages of gentrification. The study focuses on Vesterbro, Copenhagen, where three public spaces were chosen for the research. Maria Kirkeplads, Halmtorvet and Flæsketorvet, were studied through observations, document analysis and mapping.

This study examines how the City Library in Lund functions as a form of social infrastructure and crucial urban public space. This is realized by way of a triangulation approach through the examination of two municipal documents which dictate the programming of the library, an interview with a seasoned librarian, and several semi-structured observations at the site itself. The study is grounded bo

This thesis studies first-order phase-transition dynamics and the associated stochastic gravitational-wave background in classically conformal B − L-like extensions of the Standard Model. The scalar and gauge sectors are formulated at tree level and at one-loop order using a modified on-shell renormalization prescription designed to keep the vacuum structure fixed while allowing the tree-level fla

Modern cloud-based machine learning (ML) services raise significant privacy concerns, as users must share potentially sensitive data with service providers. Private Decision Tree Evaluation (PDTE) addresses this by allowing encrypted queries to be evaluated against a model without revealing either party’s data, typically using Homomorphic Encryption (HE). While existing HE-based frameworks have de

This study presents the development and validation of a new, compact architecture for ultrafast videography using the Frequency Recognition Algorithm for Multiple Exposure (FRAME). Traditional FRAME-systems often have high mechanical complexity, long optical path lengths, and are limited to one-dimensional (1D) informational extraction of refractive index gradients when using Schlieren imaging. Th

Environmental monitoring of Carbon-14 around nuclear power plants (NPPs) has traditionally prioritized gaseous emissions, leaving waterborne liquid discharges unmonitored due to low nominal volumes (<0.5%) and analytical challenges using traditional techniques. However, liquid releases do not experience as effective dilution as gas releases, instead discharging directly into coastal ecosystems whe

This study investigates the thermal-hydraulics of a simplified model of Blykalla's Swedish Advanced Lead-cooled Reactor (SEALER) using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) in OpenFOAM. The objective is to develop and verify a system-level model for forced and natural convection. The reactor cooling circuit is represented using porous media and volumetric source terms. Simulations are conducted u

This thesis investigates the design and evaluation of Large Language Model (LLM) agent assistants for industrial maintenance, developed in cooperation with SSAB. The study focuses on identifying what combinations of tools and architectures best serve the needs of maintenance technicians, with an emphasis on practical usability and factual correctness. Multiple agents were developed and compared,

This thesis examines how autonomous buses are interpreted and evaluated as a potential mobility solution within a multi-level planning context involving both municipal and regional perspectives. While autonomous vehicles are often framed as a key component of future sustainable transport systems, their implementation depends not only on technological development but also on social acceptance, inst

This thesis examines the extent to which domestic institutional structures in Brazil hinder the implementation of international and regional human rights obligations relating to racialized police violence. Taking Brazil as a single-country case study, with particular attention to Rio de Janeiro, it analyses the gap between the State’s formal human rights commitments and their domestic realization

This thesis studies a runtime frequency feedback method for low-power digital systems. Conventional low-power designs usually reserve extra voltage and timing margins to ensure stable chip operation under process, voltage, temperature, and aging variations. However, fixed margins can also lead to unnecessary power consumption. To address this problem, this thesis proposes and implements a Runtime

The entry into force of the Digital Markets Act (DMA) on 1 November 2022, with its substantive obligations becoming effective on 1 May 2023, has fundamentally reshaped the regulatory landscape for digital platforms in the European Union. This thesis examines the interplay between the traditional ex post enforcement of Article 102 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU) and th

This thesis examines whether memorisation in Generative AI models, particularly large language models, can constitute an infringement of the reproduction right under EU copyright law. It focuses on situations where protected expression is not only used as training data or reproduced in outputs, but may also be retained within a trained model itself. The thesis adopts a doctrinal legal method, sup

Syftet med denna uppsats är att kritiskt granska perspektiv på trygghet i fysisk miljö, med ut-gångspunkt i ett planprogram och dennas tillhörande utvärdering för stadsdelen Araby i Växjö. Studien diskuterar dokumentens syn på otrygghet, samt identifierar sedan åtgärder som ska motverka sådana otryggheter. Till sist diskuteras trygghetsarbetet i Arabys fysiska miljöer utifrån en större kontext av

Extreme heat and heatwaves constitute a growing challenge för municipal planning in relation to climate change. The aim of this study is to examine how risks related to extreme heat are addressed in the comprehensive planning of Malmö, Landskrona and Hässleholm, and also see how these approaches can be understood in relation to urban resilience and the PCCC framework created by Jabareen (2015) - P

I takt med att städer växer och målen om ett mer hållbart transportsystem skärps, ökar behovet av att bygga ut attraktiv, säker och yteffektiv cykelinfrastruktur. I många städer, bland annat Malmö stad används gång-, cykel- och mopedstöd, GCM-stöd, som en relativt snabb och kostnadseffektiv metod för att skapa fysisk separation mellan cykeltrafik och motorfordonstrafik utan omfattande ombyggnad avAs cities continue to grow and the objectives for a more sustainable transport system become increasingly important, there is a growing need to develop attractive, safe and space-efficient cycling infrastructure. In the City of Malmö, GCM-stöd is used as a relatively quick and cost-effective method for creating physical separation between cycle traffic and motor vehicle traffic without requiring e

This thesis investigates the potential of topology optimization to reduce the weight of an all-wheel-drive (AWD) coupling housing while maintaining structural integrity and manufacturability. The study was conducted in collaboration with BorgWarner Sweden AB and applied finite element analysis (FEA) and topology optimization using ANSYS Workbench. The project followed an adapted Double Diamond fra

Coastal municipalities face challenges in balancing coastal development with the impacts of climate change. This study examines how Simrishamn Municipality handles compromise between coastal development and the need for climate adaptation in planning. The focus of the study is on how the coast is presented as an asset for housing development, tourism, and local attractiveness at the same time as c

This thesis examines whether, and under what conditions a user’s personal data or permission to collect and use such data can constitute consideration for a supply of services under EU VAT law. This issue arises in the context of data-driven digital platform business models, where the user is often granted access to digital services without monetary payment, while the platform collects, processes

This study aimed to examine the factors that contribute to men who use violence against their female partners seeking support from social services for the first time and initiating behavioral change. The study was based on a qualitative approach and consisted of semi-structured interviews with seven social workers in Sweden who work with men using violence in intimate relationships. The empirical
