The risk for drinking water scarcity does not only concern developing countries and arid places. In its 2023 report, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change has identified water scarcity as one of Europe’s key risks out of five in the foreseeable future. Sweden experiences water shortages more and more frequently during summer, and the need to protect groundwater resources is imperative. In

Over-frequency has become an increasingly relevant issue in the Nordic synchronous power system, mainly because of the increased number of HVDC (High Voltage Direct Current) links connecting it to neighboring synchronous systems. The aim of this thesis is to research the impact that over-frequency events, caused by faults in HVDC links, have on the Nordic power system and especially what frequenci

Bakgrund: Kvarstående funktionedsättningar efter stroke begränsar individens förmåga att utföra aktiviteter i dagliga livet. Aktivitetsbaserade interventioner med fokus på meningsfulla aktiviteter har visat sig förbättra aktivitetsutförande, men används i begränsad omfattning av arbetsterapeuter. Syfte: Kartlägga aktivitetsbaserade interventioner som arbetsterapeuter använder för att främja aktivBackground: Remaining impairments after stroke limit the individual´s ability to perform activities in daily life. Occupation-based interventions focusing on meaningful occupation have been shown to improve occupational performance but are used to a limited extent by occupational therapists.

Denna studie undersöker hur finansieringsmetoden vid företagsförvärv påverkar långsiktig aktiekursutveckling bland svenska börsnoterade bolag. Studien är kvantitativ och bygger på data från 148 M&A-transaktioner under perioden 2010–2020, insamlade från Orbis, Nasdaq och årsredovisningar. Med OLS-regressionsanalys testas sambandet mellan finansieringsmetod och abnormal aktiekursutveckling.

Ett allvarligt hot mot säkerheten, tillförlitligheten och ekonomin inom den nationella och globala järnvägsinfrastrukturen är bränder. Detta examensarbete har som syfte att undersöka olika orsaker till dessa bränder samt hur risken för de kan förväntas öka längs järnvägsinfrastrukturen i Sverige med tanke på klimatförändringarna. I en omfattande analys av data från Myndigheten för samhällsskydd ocFires along the railway infrastructure pose a serious threat to the safety, reliability and the economy, both nationally and globally within the railway industry. This thesis aims to examine the main causes of these fires and how climate change is expected to increase the risk of them along the railway infrastructure in Sweden. An extensive analysis of data from the Swedish Agency for Community Sa

En studie av hur skuldsättningsgraden påverkar aktiemarknadens reaktion på negativa vinstvarningar. Syftet är att analysera sambandet mellan skuldsättningsgrad och aktiekursreaktion, med ett särskilt fokus på hur skuldsättningsgrad mäts.

An extensive public health literature has linked the low take-up of healthcare services in developing countries with measures of accessibility such as distance, duration and cost of travel to the nearest health facility. However, causality has been difficult to prove, given the endogeneity of factors influencing access, such as the availability and quality of roads and transportation. Using a natu
