In pursuit of energy efficiency and sustainable development, goals have been set by the EU and Sweden to improve the energy performance of buildings and reduce their environmental impact. Renovating the existing building stock is a path to achieving the energy and climate goals. This study investigates and analyses various retrofitting options for multifamily residential buildings in Skåne, Sweden

Energieffektivitet är viktigt i vårt moderna samhälle och i jakten på det kan oväntade problem uppstå. När Axis Communications i strävan efter ökad bildkvalitet och energieffektivitet tillämpade IR-stroboskop med hög toppeffekt som belysning åt kameror med global slutare, observerades en artefakt i form av ett vitt band i närliggande kameror med rullande slutare. Syftet med detta examensarbete är Energy efficiency is key in our modern society, and in its pursuit, unexpected problems can appear. For instance, when Axis Communications in the pursuit of image quality and energy efficiency used strobing IR-illumination to illuminate for their global shutter cameras, they observed an artefact in the form of a white band in their rolling shutter cameras. The purpose of this thesis is to find a s

The use of cannabis has increased in Sweden, and Malmö is one of the cities in which a big part of the inhabitants have tried the illicit drug. At the same time, the government works to increase the sanctions on cannabis use and possession. Thus, since the legislation on cannabis in Sweden is becoming more strict while a big part of Malmös citizens use cannabis, this study has aimed to investigate

This qualitative study examines the experiences of particularly vulnerable girls affected by child marriage and prostitution in Kenya, with the aim of exploring how social control mechanisms and gender inequality perpetuate these harmful practices. By using a thematic analysis approach within the theoretical framework of social control theory, primary and secondary deviance and dominance theory, t

The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) uses transit photometry to detect exoplanets. To confirm if it is a planet, a second detection method is used to determine the planet's mass. But with the number of candidates waiting for confirmation, statistical tools have been developed to validate exoplanets so that false positives could be ruled out quickly. One such tool is the Tool for Ra

This bachelor thesis aims to delve into the emotional responses of young men residing in urban areas in Malmö, to the evolving legal framework, with a specific focus on their legal awareness using relevant legal documents pertaining to recent amendments in the policing legislation (1984:387) regarding the criticized policing method of visitationszoner. The research involved semi structured intervi

This thesis explores the sociomaterial dynamics involved in the migration process to a new library system, specifically focusing on the case of Quria, developed by Axiell and launched in 2017. Using a sociomaterial perspective the study examines how this technological transition affects the social structures within library organizations. The research is based on qualitative data collected through

In this thesis, I attempt to categorize variable stars found with the OGLE telescope with the main aim being to find binaries containing white dwarfs. To do this, I combine light curve data from the OGLE telescope with data from the large Gaia EDR3 catalogue and a recently published 3-dimensional extinction map to gather the colour and absolute magnitude of the binary stars. Lastly, I use an artif

Dagens alltmer retributiva kriminalpolitik utgör en bakgrund till att medling vid brott för unga lagöverträdare har identifierats som ett ämne som är värt att undersöka närmare. Studiens syfte är att belysa hur medlare i Skåne beskriver och uppfattar medlingens praktik, med fokus på de hinder som medlingsverksamheten står inför och som tycks begränsa dess potential. Empirin består av sex intervjue

In early 2024, the UN reported that we need to consume less to save the climate and achieve the global sustainability goals. Since the fashion industry is driven by consumption, this essay explores how the Swedish fashion industry communicates when it comes to consumption. By analyzing consumption discourses in the sustainability reports of three Swedish fashion companies, this essay examines whet

This study investigates the creation of economic value within the Product Life Extension (PLE) business model, focusing on how specific product categories and characteristics impact the retention of value and revenue streams of PLE firms. Using Godsinlösen AB as a case study, the research quantitatively examines sales data to explore the retention of product value and consumer preferences for reus

This study examines the sustainability reporting practices of firms in Italy (mandatory disclosure) and China (voluntary disclosure). Using a qualitative descriptive design and content analysis with NVivo, the sustainability reports of large manufacturing companies with high ESG ratings from both countries are analyzed based on GRI guidelines. Institutional theory is applied to understand the infl

Strandskyddet i Sverige har en lång historia och har länge varit viktigt för att skydda allemansrätten och på senare tid även djur- och naturvärden, trots detta är lagstiftningen polariserande och ofta debatterad. Skyddet gäller vid landets alla vatten och innebär att byggnads- eller anläggningsåtgärder inte får utföras inom 100 meter från strandlinjen. Regleringen hittar vi främst i miljöbalken oThis thesis strives to investigate and make sense of the complex regulations surrounding the availability of exploitable land along bodies of water in Sweden. With the Shore Protection regulations found in the Swedish Environmental Code it becomes apparent that most sought after land along the sea, lakes and running water for planning and construction in accordance to the Planning and Building Act

Samhällets digitalisering har medfört en accelererande omsättning och användning av datorer i skolan. Den hastiga utvecklingen har gjort att forskningen inte har kunnat hålla jämna steg med den digitaliserade undervisningspraktiken, däribland övergången från lärares användande av traditionella läroböcker till digitala läromedel. Examensarbetet syftar därför till att öka förståelsen för hur gymnasi

The purpose of this study is to examine the influence of family ownership, the CEO's role, and the chairman's position on ESG decoupling in Swedish firms during the years 2016-2022. The study aims to provide insights into the complexities of ESG decoupling within family-owned companies and contribute to the understanding of sustainability efforts in these specific ownership structures.

Magnetresonanstomografi (MR) är en vanlig medicinsk bildteknik som tydligt framhäver små strukturer i kroppen utan att använda joniserande strålning. Ångest och oro hos patienter är vanliga orsaker till att MR-undersökningar avbryts eller blir inställda. Detta är negativt för både patientens vårdförlopp och för röntgenverksamheten. Därför är det viktigt att röntgensjuksköterskor har kunskap om oli

This thesis examines the acquisition of Japanese vocabulary by Swedish L1 speakers learning Japanese as a second language, and how well their proficiency, acquired through formal education in Sweden, aligns with the Japanese Language Proficiency Test (JLPT) standards. The study also compares the recognition rates of different types of word classes such as nouns, adjectives, and verbs across variou

NMR (nuclear magnetic resonance) spektroskopi, är en omfattande teknik som har många applikationer inom kemin. Det kan användas inom organisk kemi som stöd och underlag till strukturbestämning av molekyler, men framför allt finns det många tillämpningar inom biokemi och molekylärbiologi där tekniken utnyttjas; NMR är mycket användbart för att studera biomolekylers strukturer och biologiska processThis study aims to present a protocol for pH determination in biomolecular NMR samples by evaluating the pH dependence of chemical shifts in the most commonly reported buffer molecules in the BioMagResBank (BMRB). Whilst there exists multiple methods and protocols for intrinsic NMR pH determination and various molecules have been proposed as pH indicators, there is no method to determine the actua
