I det här examensarbetet undersökte jag hur mångsidigt användbara bostäder kan utformas i ett förtätningsprojekt av ett befintligt miljonprogramsområde i Malmö. För att förhindra en onödig utbredning av staden är det tänkt att Malmö framförallt ska förtätas och därmed ska växa inåt, när behovet av nya bostäder ökar. Många av de bostäder som byggs idag saknar kvaliteter som gör dem mångsidigt använIn this thesis I investigated how to design adaptable residences for a broader user group, in an existing residential area in Malmö built in the 70ties. To prevent an unnecessary expansion of the city, Malmö should grow inwards as the need for new housing increases. Many apartments built today often lack qualities that makes them adaptable for changing needs over time. They tend to fit certain use

Non-state armed groups in Mali have recruited female child soldiers for the past 12 years in its Central and Northern regions. Some of these now-former female child soldiers (FFCS) have given birth to children of these combatants, so-called “Children Born of War” (CBOW). Both mothers and their children may experience sexual (ex. gender-based violence) and violence-related (ex. fear) stigmas in the
A family’s involvement and ownership of a firm separates family firms from both public companies and other private firms. It is widely accepted that family firms have unique characteristics, with implications for their behavior and an impact on their internationalization. Extant research presents a need for studies on the heterogeneity observed in family firm internationalization, and has presente
Flooding in oil palm plantations in Southeast Asia is a common problem. The oil palm’s habitable range is restricted to lowland equatorial areas, and the high rainfall and degraded landscapes associated with oil palm cultivation leaves oil palm prone to flooding. Flooding diminishes yields in mature palms, increases mortality in young palms, and disrupts operational processes. This reduces the ec

This thesis investigates a new type of Phase-Locked Loop (PLL) architecture which combines a phase/frequency detector (PFD) and a digital loop filter. The quantization is done by a time-to-digital converter which continuously shrinks the pulse coming from the PFD and registers how far it propagates. Based on how far into the TDC each pulse propagates, the phase error is determined. The design is f
