This project explores audio technology, beginning with research into sound and loudspeaker principles. Initial inspiration was drawn from exciter speakers, with an attempt to enhance their audio by incorporating design elements from acoustic instruments. However, this concept was abandoned in favor of developing a functional loudspeaker prototype prioritizing high sound quality and a flat-pack des
This thesis explores how female international students at Lund University engage with social media platforms and perceive the growing presence of AI-generated content. The study aims to understand how past digital experiences- particularly negative ones such as online bullying, judgment, or privacy violations, influence current usage patterns, coping strategies, and interactions with algorithmic s
In this literature review, chaotropic additives in supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) were investigated. Due to the usage of CO2 as mobile phase in supercritical fluid chromatography, the technique was assumed to only be appliable to non-polar analytes. Polar modifiers were able extend the range to include polar analytes. Though it’s still insufficient to separate some sets of polar comp
This study investigates how early exposure to maternal mental distress shapes offspring’s long‐ term socioeconomic pathways by leveraging the 1970 British Cohort Study. Maternal distress was measured when the cohort members were aged 5, 10, and 16 years via the 24-item Malaise Inventory. Structural Equation Modeling is employed to estimate (1) the direct effect of maternal malaise on offspring’s a
Gemera Junior is a project developed in collaboration with Koenigsegg. The project focuses on creating a child car seat specifically designed for the Koenigsegg Gemera, a groundbreaking hypercar that uniquely accommodates four passengers. The aim is to extend Koenigsegg’s uncompromising design language, innovation and performance-driven philosophy into a product that allows parents to safely sha
In today’s fast-paced society, working parents face increasing challenges in providing young children with engaging, developmentally beneficial activities while balancing their responsibilities and limited time. As a result, many parents rely on screens beyond recommended guidelines as a convenient way to occupy their children. However, research shows that excessive screen use is not ideal for chi
This study investigates whether downside risk, captured through downside beta, is a priced risk factor in the Swedish stock market. Using monthly data from 1990 to 2019, the study sorts portfolios of Swedish stocks into quintiles by downside beta. These portfolios are then evaluated using standard asset pricing models, along with extensions that incorporate low-beta strategies such as the inclusio
Betong är ett av världens mest använda byggnadsmaterial, men materialet har en stor klimatpåverkan i form av de koldioxidutsläpp som tillverkningen av det ingående cementet orsakar. Produktionen av cement står idag för mellan 5% och 7% av de globala utsläppen av koldioxid. För att minska betongens klimatpåverkan kan användandet av cement begränsas genom att ersätta delar av det med tillsatsmateriaConcrete is one of the most widely used construction materials in the world, but it has a significant environmental impact due to carbon dioxide emissions from the production of its main component, cement. Cement production accounts for 5% to 7% of the current global carbon dioxide emissions. To reduce the environmental impact of concrete the use of cement can be limited by replacing parts of it w
Unaccompanied minor refugees are not receiving enough of the preceding rights pertaining to children and refugees when they seek asylum in Sweden. Politics and distorted media portrayals of unaccompanied minor refugees affect the legislation that in turn influences the asylum outcomes. This study aims to understand and analyse experiences in work from the existence of children's rights during

This thesis explores what motivates female cadets to remain in the Swedish Armed Forces, and how they navigate their gendered positionalities within this male-dominated organisation. As previous research on women in the military shows many women leave due to sexual harassment and other gendered challenges, this research aims to find out why some choose to stay. Based on eight semi-structured inter
This study aims to examine the experience of international students from Lund and Malmö universities regarding social participation and loneliness throughout their studies abroad. I conducted qualitative interviews with international students from the universities. After I gathered my empirical data, I then assessed their experiences through Goffman’s stigma theory and Antonovsky’s sense of cohere
Denna uppsats undersöker hur riskanalysmetoder inom flygindustrin kan förstås och utvecklas utifrån ett Safety II-perspektiv. Traditionellt har metoder som riskmatriser, Aviation Risk Management Solution (ARMS) och Bowtie fokuserat på att identifiera och hantera negativa händelser (Safety I). Perspektivet som kallas Safety-II introducerar ett kompletterande synsätt där fokus ligger på att förstå v
Produkter framställda från massa är en del av vardagen. Med produkter så som kaffefilter, förpackningar till mat och mjukpapper. Dessa är ett resultat av trä som behandlats i massabruk för att producera massa, som de tidigare nämnda pappersprodukterna är producerade från. Den moderna pappers och massaindustrin är energiintensiv och står för stora utsläpp utifrån ett globalt perspektiv, ansvarig föProducts made from pulp are a part of everyday life. With end products like coffee filters, food packaging and tissue paper. These products are the result of wood being processed in pulp mills to produce the pulp from which the forementioned paper products are produced. The modern pulp and paper industry is energy intense and on a global perspective a large emitter of greenhouse gasses, accounting
The study investigates the relationship between drinking water quality and birth outcomes in Colombia, focusing on early neonatal mortality and low birth weight. Using nationally representative Demographic and Health Survey data, the study combines logistic, multilevel and spatial analysis to assess individual-level and geographic determinants of neonatal health. The results show that mothers expo
The increasing integration of AI-generated microcontent summaries in everyday use lacks clear evidence of impact on user decision quality compared to simpler methods or original content, raising "AI-washing" concerns. This study empirically investigated the effects of AI-generated summaries of microcontent on user decision quality, considering content collection length, to assess if and
