CO2 is the most important greenhouse gas in terms of radiative forcing, and it is therefore highly important that we can track our emissions and the effectiveness of carbon sequestration measures. While the national carbon inventories can be highly accurate, there is general conflict of interest, as national carbon inventories are bottom up estimates in part based on self-reportings from private a
Certain organic micropollutants and emerging contaminants are increasingly detected in wastewater effluents due to enhancement of detection techniques and new technological processes or household items being introduced. Some of them can accumulate in food chains and/or pose health risks for humans, wildlife and ecosystems. Often, these are very difficult or impossible to sufficiently remove using
This thesis analyzes Socialstyrelsens (Swedish Social Services) guidelines for endometriosis healthcare, with the aim of understanding the social aspects of the medicalized field of endometriosis. Former research on transnational and Swedish endometriosis experience, studies on endometriosis guidelines and Socialstyrelsens’ guidelines for healthcare, is presented to contextualize the project. The
Our thesis investigates the effects that strategies aligned with resonance theory have on organisations when they are used to adapt to technical acceleration. To do so, we use retrospective case studies and qualitative interviews to understand how organisations adapted to the rapid implementation of remote work during the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States. We analyse internal methods of adapt
What happens when open, informal spaces disappear – and specifically, what happens when these spaces disappear in a city that used to be full of them? My project is rooted in two things. The first is the highly debated ”Amazon Tower” in Friedrichshain, and the polarized urban conditions around it. The second is my love for Berlin. Berlin has always been a city in flux. However, the latest round
Bragg Coherent Diffraction Imaging (Bragg CDI) is an X-ray imaging technique used to recover the internal strain information of nano-scale crystalline particles. A particle, illuminated by X-ray beams, is rocked along a direction θ and the entire diffraction volume is sampled by a series of 2-D diffraction patterns. From the diffraction volume, the internal structure of the particle can be recover
The global industrial sector is a highly polluting and greenhouse gas-emitting sector. As industries increasingly explore Artificial Intelligence (AI) to enhance operational efficiency and drive innovation, questions emerge regarding its alignment with sustainability objectives. While AI is often positioned as a key enabler of digital transformation, its sustainable integration into industrial ope
Hydrogen plays a pivotal role in the global energy transition, offering a clean and versatile energy carrier for a sustainable future. However, ensuring its safe use in industrial facilities requires reli- able prediction of dispersion from Venting Units (VUs). Traditional computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations provide high-fidelity results but are too slow for fast safety assessment and i
Under en tid har det funnits en önskan att förtäta bostadsområden för att spara mark och minska utspriddheten. Detta har skett på både bättre och sämre sätt. I städer där grönskan är begränsad har den ofta fått ge vika för punkthus. Även om tanken bakom detta är god och många gånger har genomförts på ett balanserat och ansvarsfullt sätt växer diskussionen om hur vi vill bo. Att exploatera åkermark
ODIN (Optical and Diffraction Imaging with Neutrons) is a general purpose imaging in- strument under construction at the European Spallation Source (ESS). The instrument will provide the scientific community with a wide array of neutron imaging techniques, including neutron tomography. Coupled with an integrated X-ray source, the instrument will feature multi-modal capabilities. The complementary
This thesis investigates the adaptive reuse of Vagnsverkstaden, a former railway maintenance hall in Malmö’s Lokstallarna. The project explores how this early 20th-century industrial structure can be transformed into a multifunctional civic space, while preserving its material and historical character. Using site analysis, theoretical frameworks, and case study comparisons, the proposal introduces
In order to design and investigate the effects of vegetable oil based enzymatically produced liquid crystalline phases (LCPs), oat oil with 15% and 50% polar lipids contents (PL15, PL40) and with different storage conditions were incubated with Lipozyme TL and CalB. PL40 based LCPs were further investigated incorporating 1-10% aspartame (ASP) or ibuprofen (IBU) and all of the LCPs samples were ana
I denna uppsats diskuteras det nya lagförslaget om beskattning av carried inte-rest. Carried interest utgörs av den asymmetriska vinstfördelningen som till-faller fondförvaltaren för både investerat kapital och för utfört arbete i de bo-lag som investeringarna sker i. Den föreslagna regleringen innebär att beskattning ska ske enligt de så kallade 3:12-reglerna, vilket i korthet innebär att carriThis thesis discusses the new legislative proposal concerning the taxation of carried interest. Carried interest refers to the asymmetric distribution of profits allocated to the fund manager, partly for invested capital and partly for work performed in the companies in which investments are made. The proposed regulation stipulates that taxation shall be carried out in accord-ance with the so-ca
Denna uppsats undersöker motiven bakom den kriminalpolitiska utvecklingen i Sverige när det gäller straffskärpningar för unga lagöverträdare. Fokus ligger särskilt på avskaffandet av ungdomsreduktionen för unga myndiga vid allvar-lig brottslighet, samt på det senaste förslaget om ytterligare straffskärpningar även för omyndiga lagöverträdare (SOU 2024:39). För att svara på frågeställningarna redoThis thesis examines the motives behind recent developments in Swedish criminal policy concerning increased sentences for young offenders. It focus-es on the abolition of the juvenile reduction for young adults in cases of seri-ous crime, as well as on the recent proposal for further increases in sentences for underage offenders (Swedish Government Official Reports 2024:39). To fulfill the purpose
Uppsatsen analyserar de rättsliga och politiska skälen till varför förslaget om att inkludera juridiska personers straffansvar avvisades under Romkonferen-sen 1998. Fokus ligger särskilt på hur detta förslag förhöll sig till principen om komplementaritet, som föreskriver att ICC endast agerar när nationella rättssystem är ovilliga eller oförmögna att lagföra internationella brott. Ge-nom en rättsdThis thesis analyzes the legal and political reasons why the proposal to include corporate criminal liability was rejected during the Rome Conference in 1998. Particular focus is placed on how this proposal related to the principle of complementarity, which stipulates that the ICC only intervenes when national legal systems are unwilling or unable to prosecute international crimes. Using a legal d
Den här uppsatsen behandlar frågan om huruvida storskalig miljöförstöring, så kallat ekocid, bör erkännas som ett femte internationellt brott enligt Romstadgan för Internationella brottmålsdomstolen. Uppsatsens syfte är att reda ut vad brottet ekocid innebär, vilka juridiska utmaningar som finns kopp-lade till införandet, samt om en sådan kriminalisering är förenlig med Romstadgans syfte och ändamThis thesis examines whether large-scale environmental destruction, referred to as ecocide, should be recognized as the fifth core crime under the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court (ICC). The aim of the thesis is to clarify the meaning of the proposed crime of ecocide, identify legal challenges associated with its implementation, and assess whether such criminalization aligns with t
CERN operates complex underground facilities, with the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) posing unique fire detection challenges due to ionising radiation, long tunnel spans, and variable ventilation. To address the limitations of aspirating smoke detectors in both current and future CERN facilities, Distributed Temperature Sensing (DTS) systems using radiation-resistant optical fibers are being exp
Med bakgrund av egna erfarenheter har vi sett att nybörjarstadiet är kritiskt i improvisationsundervisningen samt att det ofta saknats konkreta verktyg för att lära sig att improvisera. Syftet med studien har därför varit att undersöka hur man introducerar improvisation för ovana improvisatörer, samt att identifiera vilka faktorer som underlättar elevens utveckling. Vårt fokus för studien har variFrom personal experience we have observed how critical the beginner stage of learning musical improvisation is to future studies in the subject, and how there seems to be lacking a consistent approach to introduce beginner students to improvisation. This study aims to examine how improvisation is introduced to beginner improvisers as well asidentify which factors facilitate a student’s progression
Denna kandidatuppsats undersöker hur försäkringsbolag arbetar med att skapa tillit till AI-system i skadehandläggningsprocesser. Med utgångspunkt i tidigare forskning om tillit till AI – särskilt begreppen teknisk kvalitet, integritet och mänskliga egenskaper – analyseras tekniska och organisatoriska strategier genom en kvalitativ intervjustudie. Analysen bygger på en systematisk jämförelse mellan
Överföringen av logiska program från äldre styrsystem till nyare är ett omfattande arbete som, oavsett teknisk utveckling, fortfarande är en betydande manuell börda. Visserligen finns det verktyg som kan göra en automat-konvertering, men dessa tenderar att genomföra en 1:1-konvertering, vilket innebär att den nya logiken behåller samma föråldrade struktur och inte drar nytta av moderna funktioner The transfer of control logic and system implementations from older to newer control systems is a substantial undertaking that, despite technological advancements, remains largely a manual effort. While there are tools available that perform automatic conversions, these tend to apply a one-to-one conversion strategy. This means that the structure of the logic remains outdated and does not take adv
