Väg- och järnvägsbranschen i Sverige har parallellt nått samma slutsats: Förvaltaren behöver bättre koll på sin anläggning genom innovation och digitalisering. Transportnätet plågas idag av kostsamma akuta felavhjälpningar och förseningar av förlegade förvaltningsstrategier. Transportprognoserna pekar på kraftigt ökat transportbehov de kommande decennierna vilket medför krav på hållbarhet och såleIn parallel, the road and rail industry in Sweden have reached the same conclusion: asset management need better control of their assets which involves innovation and digitalization. The transport network is currently plagued by costly emergency repairs and delays caused by outdated management strategies. Transport forecasts indicate a sharp increase in demand during the coming decades, which requ

This study focuses on custody cases in Sweden, especially examining how children’s involvement is addressed in custody, residence, and visitation judgments. By analyzing court decisions and corresponding district court rulings after Sweden’s 2020 implementation of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) and especially referring to UNCRC articles 3 and 12. Through qualitati

On June 15, 2020, the US Supreme Court held in Bostock v. Clayton County that discrimination against an individual because of this individual’s homosexuality and transgender status violated Title VII of the Civil Rights of 1964 which prohibited sex discrimination in employment. This landmark case symbolizes a victory for protecting LGBTQ workers under Title VII. However, existing studies have reve

This thesis, “From Vows to Misery: Unveiling the Legal Struggle and Human Rights Dimensions Against Child Marriage in Indonesia,” aims to investigate how international human rights law (IHRL) could contribute to the effective prevention and eradication of child marriage in Indonesia. This study will explore the underlying reasons and significant factors contributing to the prevalence of child marr

Anomaly detection is important in many different areas, among them web security. When performing anomaly detection in web security there can be hundreds of features in the collected web traffic data to consider, even though all of them might not be necessary. This thesis aims to develop a strategy to dynamically create significant parameter groups from web traffic data containing over 100 features

This thesis aims to analyze the significance of the nickel ore export ban for Indonesia in the context of the global political economy, considering Indonesia's status as a Middle-Income (MI) country seeking to advance its economy. Drawing upon dependency theory and World System Theory (WST), Indonesia is assumed to transition from an MI country to a core economy by halting the export of raw ma

Att studera upplösning av orala läkemedel är avgörande för att förstå deras biotillgänglighet och terapeutiska effekt. Då dagens metoder för att studera upplösning är tidskrävande och kräver stora mängder av läkemedel och media så finns det ett stort behov av att fram nya metoder. En potentiell metod är UV-Vis imaging som kan användas för att studera upplösning av läkemedel i realtid. Detta projekStudying dissolution of oral drug substances is crucial throughout the drug development process. Current methods are time consuming and require large quantities of both the drug and dissolution media. Thus, exploring new methods is highly desirable. UV imaging, an analytical technique based on real-time absorbance measurements, can be used in early drug discovery to study drug dissolution and has

Early diagnosis of hearing impairment in children is crucial to enable successful treatment, prevent further deterioration, and ensure proper development of speech and other cognitive abilities. One of the most commonly used methods for hearing assessment in young children is Visual Reinforcement Audiometry (VRA). The primary challenge with VRA is maintaining the child's attention throughout t

As humans, we experience many spaces/ borders throughout our life flow. The borders of countries, the houses we live in, the borders of a playground, or the borders between two people. Sometimes we shape the borders, sometimes the borders shape us. However, irrespective of the circumstances, these borders exert discernible influences on the trajectory of our life flow. Each of our border experienc

Våld i nära relation, och i synnerhet mäns våld mot kvinnor, är ett angeläget samhälls- och folkhälsoproblem. Det förebyggande arbetet mot denna brottstyp har tidigare riktats mot den våldsutsatta, snarare än våldsutövaren, vilket kan leda till offerbeskyllande tendenser. Samverkansmetoden “Intimate Partner Violence Intervention” (IPVI) har därför vuxit fram, där våldsutövarna ställs i myndigheter

Background: Purchasing and Supplier Relationship Management are becoming increasingly important as companies’ competitiveness increases. One part of this is Supplier Performance Evaluation (SPE), which is part of the final step in the purchasing process and can be performed in many different ways. SPE can ensure that suppliers are performing as expected and when not, actions can be taken. When mea

This study examines the impact of monetary non-integration on trade flows, specifically focusing on Denmark and how Danish trade with the founding members of the Eurozone would have developed if Denmark would have adopted the Euro in 1999. We turn to the Synthetic Control Method (SCM) to create a synthetic Denmark that adopted the Euro in 1999 and find significant negative effects for Danish trade

This study aimed to explore the effect of group conversation about injustice using methods from Acceptance and Commitment Training (ACTr) in a theatre setting. The objective was to reduce prejudice, psychological inflexibility with stigma and white fragility as well as increase compassion and behavioural intentions towards equality, among a sample of Swedish adults. An interactive conversational t

Nova Lund köpcentrum har årligen närmare 3 miljoner besökare. Här finns stora publika ytor där allmänheten kan röra sig kombinerat med ytor som vanligtvis enbart nyttjas av verksamheterna i fastigheten. Med stora öppna ytor och volymer finns det en utmaning i att göra det tydligt för allmänheten var möjlighet till utrymning finns i händelse av brand. Hänsyn måste tas till bland annat besökarnas peNova Lund Shopping mall is frequently visited by a large number of people, up to 3 million every year. With large areas where the visitors can move freely, combined with spaces commonly used by staff members, there will be challenges regarding making the egress routes both visible and understood – in case of fire. The mobility, perception, and knowledge of the guests, as well as the employees, mus

Optimera inhalationsbehandlingen: Så påverkar bärarpartikelstorleken och blandningsprocessen läkemedelsprestandan Inhalering har använts som en metod för administrering av läkemedel i över 2000 år och har många fördelar mot lungsjukdomar som exempelvis cystisk fibros och astma. Lungorna är avgörande för vår andningsfunktion och ansvarar för gasutbytet mellan luft och blod. Genom att leverera läkInhalation as a method for drug delivery has been employed for more than 2000 years and serves many advantages for diseases in the respiratory tract, like cystic fibrosis and asthma. When administrating the drug directly to the respiratory tract it results in rapid effects and elimination of systemic side effects due to more targeted delivery. Dry powder inhalers (DPI) typically consist of the act

Varje svenskt hushåll slänger 500 kg avfall per år vilket genererar ett utsläpp på 0,9 miljoner ton koldioxidekvivalenter, därav är det av största vikt att återvinningscentraler är tillgängliga och attraktiva för befolkningen att besöka. En kvantitativ studie har därför genomförts i syfte att, dels undersöka hur besökare upplever de befintliga svenska återvinningscentralerna, dels för att se vilka

Enhancing the physicochemical and sensory properties of flavoured vodkas using hydrocolloids is of significant interest to the beverage industry. Hydrocolloids like xanthan gum and carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) can influence texture and stability, yet their specific impacts in alcoholic systems are underexplored. This study aims to evaluate the effect of hydrocolloids on the viscosity, turbidity,

Synthetic data is becoming more accessible and presents several benefits over traditional human-derived data for developing healthcare technology, especially in medical imaging systems. The primary reasons for using synthetic data are to minimise the potential privacy risks associated with real human data and to substantially increase the overall volume of available data. Previous research has lar
