Hur kan naturliga dagvattensystem förhindra översvämningar i våra städer? Kraftigare skyfall och fler hårdgjorda ytor ökar risken för översvämningar i städer. I detta arbete utvecklades en metod för att undersöka bästa möjliga placering av blågröna lösningar för att avlasta vattenledningarna i området. Denna metod tillämpades senare på ett område i Lund där olika lösningar simulerades och effektiClimate change and increasing urbanization pose significant challenges to our urban environment. Urbanization leads to more impermeable surfaces, which, in combination with more rainfall, put communities at risk of flooding due to combined sewer overflows or overloaded drainage systems. To combat urban flooding, natural systems, also called blue-green solutions, can be implemented to mimic the nat

Hur vi utvecklar våra städer innebär viktiga och stundtals svåra beslut i samhällsbyggnadsprocessen. 3D-stadsmodeller är virtuella 3D-stadsmiljöer som kan bidra med insikter i dessa beslutsprocesser. I Sverige finns planer på att skapa en 3D-baskarta för kommuner. Den ska fungera som en 3D stadsmodell och erbjuda grundläggande information om stadsmiljöer. Den kan hjälpa intressenter, till exempel Urban vegetation and 3D city models are increasingly used strategically in urban development. However, representation of urban vegetation information in 3D city models is often lacking. Currently in Sweden, how urban vegetation should be represented in a future municipal 3D base map is discussed. Focusing on the integration of 3CIM, the Swedish extension of the semantic 3D city model CityGML, and

This thesis focuses on two primary parts: the design of a 10-bit medium high-speed, high-linearity current-steering digital-to-analog converter (DAC), and the implementation of a linear analog interpolation technique aimed at suppressing images at the DAC output. Design considerations for the current-steering DAC are discussed comprehensively, and the circuit is designed in 22nm Fully-Depleted Si

This work explores the catalytic activity of decavanadate (V10)-based catalysts in the selective oxidation of ethylbenzene (EB), a model compound of lignin-derived molecules, under mild conditions. The goal is to assess the catalytic efficiency, product selectivity, and the influence of counter-ions on activity through systematic testing of parameters such as temperature and catalyst loading. Addi

Strategic University-Industry Collaborations (UICs) are vital for innovation, yet evaluating their multifaceted outcomes presents a significant challenge. This thesis addresses this gap by investigating performance measurement in UICs through an in-depth case study of the long-standing strategic partnership between Tetra Pak and Lund University. By employing a qualitative methodology, incorporatin

In this bachelor's thesis, I carry out a discourse analysis of the film Pretty Woman (1990), using the bechdeltest, feminist film theory, intersectionality and representation theory. The aim is to demonstrate that the bechdeltest is unfortunately lacking as a tool for measuring gender equality in films. While widely used as a basic indicator of female presence and dialogue, the test fails to a

Solanum tuberosum (Potato) is a cool-season, short-day crop that tuberize effectively at temperatures between 15°C-19°C and at a day length of about 12 hours. These environmental requirements pose a moderate challenge to potato cultivar in different region globally. In Northern Europe, summers are characterized by the prolonged daylight and temperature that frequently exceed 19℃. Such conditions c

The thesis investigates the Tesla strike in Sweden as a sociological case of trade union strength and a test of the Swedish model in the face of transnational corporate power. The central research question is how union strength is manifested in the conflict between IF Metall and Tesla, and how this conflict can be understood in relation to shifting power dynamics between labour and capital in a gl

In this thesis, I examine the ideological foundation of national conservatism in contemporary Europe with a particular focus on the Sweden Democrats’ (SD) ideas in their contemporary discourse. Through a descriptive idea and ideology analysis this thesis analyzes how the party conceptualizes the ideas of Swedish nationality, culture, and migration in official party documents and communications by

Plankorsningar, där väg och järnväg möts i en punkt, utgör en riskfylld del av transportsystemet. Olyckorna vid plankorsningar har lett till allvarliga konsekvenser i Sverige. Där Sveriges långsiktiga mål (Nollvisionen) syftar på att ingen ska dö eller skadas allvarligt i trafiken, vilket omfattar att öka säkerheten vid plankorsningar för att. Syftet med examensarbete har varit att undersöka säkerLevel crossings, where road and railway intersect at the same point, represent a high-risk part of the transport system. Accidents at level crossings have led to serious consequences in Sweden. Sweden's long-term goal (the Vision Zero) aims for no one to be killed or seriously injured in traffic, which includes increasing safety at level crossings. The purpose of this thesis has been to examin

This thesis aims to critique and move beyond dominant discourses of resilience within LGBTQ+ and trans research. Drawing from decolonial critiques of resilience and trans scholarship, the thesis engages with queer phenomenology and Black radical thought to propose an alternative theoretical framework of fugitive resilience. Grounded in empirical research with trans individuals in a Swedish context

I takt med att arbetsmarknaden förändras och personalomsättningen ökar, har kraven på träffsäkra, hållbara och strategiska rekryteringsprocesser blivit alltmer centrala för organisationers långsiktiga framgång. Samtidigt har digitalisering och teknologiska framsteg gett upphov till nya verktyg och metoder, såsom AI-baserad screening och automatiserade urvalssystem, vilket har förändrat rekrytering

Denna studie undersöker hur marknadsföring av sportevenemang på lokal och regional nivå organiseras, kommuniceras och upplevs av olika aktörer. Utgångspunkten är att mindre sportevenemang spelar en central roll inom besöksnäringen, men att tidigare forskning främst har fokuserat på internationella och storskaliga evenemang. Därmed finns en kunskapslucka kring de särskilda förutsättningar och utman

This work investigates single-sensor localization of acoustic emissions (AEs) along a wind turbine blade with supervised neural networks. We evaluate six architectures: a Dense MLP, a 1D CNN on time-domain inputs, two 2D CNNs on linear spectrograms (LinSpec) and mel-spectrograms (MelSpec), a CRNN (2D CNN + LSTM), and RepVGG (Mini RepVGG in simulation, RepVGG-A0 in experiments). Three experimental

Digitaliseringen har förändrat hur musik skapas, lärs ut och framförs. Inom gymnasieskolans estetiska program har detta lett till införandet av elektroniskt digitalt instrument (EDI) som valbart instrument i ämnet instrument eller sång. Införandet väcker frågor om hur EDI bör förstås och implementeras i undervisningen – särskilt i relation till övrig instrumentalundervisning. Studien syftar till a

Several studies have reported a declining reading rate in school-aged children. Thus, this thesis therefore aimed to evaluate how students in their last semester of high school (gymnasiet) would have their attentive behaviour affected when reading challenging texts, and with the allowance or the prohibition of the use of electronic devices in the classroom. The purpose of the study was to foster a

This study examines whether share buybacks lead to real improvements in operational performance for public companies in the Nordic region. Buybacks are frequently associated with mechanical improvements in financial metrics on paper and market signaling, yet how they affect a company’s operational performance has not been clearly established. This is analyzed by comparing companies that conducted

In the rush of urban growth, a fractured reality unfolds in Metro Manila, Philippines: one side is a booming, ever-evolving metropolis, while the other is a flood of migrant workers, the unemployed, and the homeless. Slums have even become a luxury few can afford, where even securing a place to live means waiting in line. When slums are a dream out of reach, and space for survival is stretched t

This thesis examines the social integration experiences of talent migrants in Shenzhen, China, within the framework of policy-driven institutional support. Distinct from traditional labor migrants, talent migrants are highly educated professionals who actively choose Shenzhen as their destination, benefiting from preferential measures such as streamlined household registration, subsidized housing,
