Många anläggningar projekteras idag under jord. Det gör att det tillkommer krav på vattentätning av berget. Ett sätt att vattentäta en konstruktion är att använda dukmembran eller tunnelduk. Dock råder det oklarheter hur provningsmetoderna för brandklassificering och standarder skiljer sig internationellt. I en alltmer globaliserad värld är det viktigt att provningsmetoderna jämförs med varandra,

Modellering av PFAS i grundvattnet - undersökning om vilka metoder som används och vilka parametrar som påverkar PFAS kan sprida sig till dricksvattnet genom grundvattnet, och det är därför viktigt att vi har kunskap om hur vi kan simulera denna spridning för att skydda våra dricksvattentäkter. Poly- och perfluorerade alkylsubstanser, även kallade PFAS, är en grupp kemikalier som är nästintill oPFAS contamination in drinking water is a current problem, and new regulations for drinking water limits were recently implemented in each member country of the EU in January this year. Understanding the spread of PFAS in groundwater is therefore important to prevent it from reaching drinking water sources. Groundwater modeling is a valuable tool for this purpose. However, due to the specific char

Under de senaste åren har växthuseffekten växt och ökat i en otrolig fart som en effekt av allt koldioxidutsläpp som genereras av förbränning av fossila bränslen i dagens industri. Det har bidragit med att vi har fått klimatförändringar som ökade temperaturer på jordens yta runt om i världen. Ett stort fokus idag runt om i världen är att hitta ett sätt att dra ner på mängden utsläpp av koldioxid. Reducing CO2 emissions from combustion of fossil fuels is a big priority around the globe today. Some strategies to minimize air pollution and the increasing greenhouse gas effect are using recyclables and CO2 tax but an energy source replacement from fossil fuels is needed. Renewable energies are a good source of energy, but a stable storage system is required in order to be able to implement thi

In the digital era, the way people communicate has been greatly changed by information and communication technologies, such as social media. Internet memes spread virally among the public through social media platforms and utilized by contemporary people to communicate in the virtual world. Marketers or managers notice the impacts of internet memes and regard them as an effective tool to promote c

This study illuminates the pivotal role of start-ups in driving circular economy (CE) implementation in Indonesia. Using the Multi-Level Perspective (MLP) framework, this research explores the dynamic contributions of start-ups in fostering sustainable transitions from a linear to a circular economy. The qualitative data collection involved document review and semi-structured interviews, revealing

On June 24th 2022, nearly two thousand people attempted to cross the border between Morocco and the Spanish enclave of Melilla, resulting in dozens of deaths and injuries. Scholars have suggested that these border crossings in the Mediterranean highlight the systemic border violence that is exercised towards migrants in the region to prevent presenting them as isolated or sporadic. To contribute t

In the contemporary global context, the global focus on reducing environmental impacts in any formats has intensified. This study intends to assess the environmental impacts and life cycle costs associated with the A1-A5 stages (production and construction stages) of the Köping Port project and eight additional proposed scenarios. The Solidification/ Stabilization method along with the in-situ tec

The study has two purposes: in the setup of heavily regulated industry (banking) and non-incentivized compensation scheme, (1) to investigate separately bankers’ enabling and coercive perceptions of PMS and how they contribute to motivation and work effort; and (2) to explore to what extent the combination of enabling and coercive perceptions of PMS influences motivation and work effort. The stud

Paul the Apostle was a very diligent man in many things. Both before his conversion and afterwards he did not cease to work towards his goals; before the conversion eagerly tracking the people believing in Jesus and after his conversion travelling as a missionary, founding churches, writing letters, pursuing his primary target spreading the Gospel. At the same time, he also upheld a regular job. H

Klimatförändringarna, energikrisen och en ökande efterfrågan på el har uppmärksammat behovet av en hållbar omställning av energisystemet. Havsbaserad vindkraft spelar en viktig roll i denna omställning och förväntas expandera kraftigt globalt, i EU och i Sverige. Samtidigt möter projekt stort lokalt motstånd. Trots att svenskar generellt visar högt stöd för vindkraft så har en majoritet av de senaClimate change, the energy crisis of 2022-2023, and estimations of future electricity demands have stressed the necessity for a rapid transition of the energy system. Offshore wind energy plays an important role in this transition, and is expected to expand considerably on a global level, in the EU and in Sweden. While Swedes show high support of wind energy, a majority of recent projects have bee

Over the years, the Erasmus+ Programme has grown from a framework with options limited to the few Member States at the time to an extensive Programme with opportunities provided to countries inside and outside of the European Union. Some actions of the Erasmus+ Programme allow countries outside the EU, so-called third countries, to participate in the projects as partners. One such action is Capaci

Are women absent from Western Music History? This is a question of an apparent and easy answer; however, the reality differs. This issue prevails and only started to be discussed more seriously in recent years, since feminism has been a current on-going discussion through the world. In music, circumstances are seemingly slower to evolve still allowing discriminative actions. Through the analysis o

Denna uppsats syftar till att undersöka och klargöra gällande rätt i fråga om styrelseledamöters möjlighet att ta upp sina arvoden till beskattning i bolag. Därutöver ämnar uppsatsen även att sätta reglerna om styrelseledamotsbeskattning i bolag i ett bredare sammanhang. För att uppnå detta syfte kommer uppsatsen att behandla relevant svensk lagstiftning, samt att se till hur denna har tolkats i eThis essay aims to investigate and clarify the current legal landscape in regards to board members’ abilities to tax for their income via their companies. Moreover, the essay also aims to place the rules concerning board members’ taxation via companies in the broader context of the phenomenon of directing personal income to companies. In order to achieve these goals, the essay will discuss relevan

Industrin står för en fjärdedel av Sveriges totala utsläpp av växthusgaser. Därför är det av högsta prioritet att branschen ställer om sin produktion från fossil till förnybar. En viktig strategi för att uppå klimatmålen är att elektrifiera produktionen. En storskalig elektrifiering kräver att elproduktionen matchar elbehovet samt att elledningarna är rustade för det önskade uttaget av effekt. SkåThe industry accounts for a quarter of Sweden’s total emissions of greenhouse gases. Thus, it is a high priority that the industry exchanges its dependency on fossil fuels to renewable ones. One important strategy to meet the national climate goals is to electrify the production. An excessive electrification requires that the electricity production matches the electricity demand and that the elect

Individualised healthcare is the future of medicine, due to the so called inter-patient variability. The inter-patient variability involves differences in the drug response between different patients. The effect of a drug can usually be divided into pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD). One way to individualise anaesthesia, may be to automate it using closed-loop control systems. This t

Radionuklidterapi är en nuklearmedicinsk behandling där man använder sig av ett radioaktivt läkemedel för behandling av diverse sjukdomar, ofta kan det vara olika former av spridd cancer. Det görs genom att administrera radioaktiviteten i patienten där den söker sig till cancern och där strålar och därmed behandlar tumören. Den utsända strålningen från radionukliden består av laddade partiklar vilBackground and Aim: New SPECT cameras that use CZT detectors in a 360◦ configuration has recently been introduced. Together with Bayesian reconstruction methods employing Median Root Prior (MRP) and Relative Difference Prior (RDP), this constitutes an alternative to Anger-based SPECT for activity quantification. The aim of this thesis is to, by the use of both OS-EM and Bayesian reconstruction met
