Introduction: The screening program for cervical cancer in Sweden recommends the use of primary human papillomavirus (HPV) screening for women aged ≥30 to 65 years. Co-testing with both HPV analysis and cytology is recommended at the first screening after the age of 40 years. To fulfil co-testing, all screened women aged 40–42 years within the region of Skåne were co-tested. The aim of the audit w
This master’s thesis examines the museum as a commodity and the consequences that has on the Hallwyl museum. The museum is a former private palace built in 1893-1898 as the Stockholm home for Wilhelmina von Hallwyl (1844-1930) and her family. The palace was constructed with the intention to become a museum and she donated the house to the Swedish state. The museum opened in 1938 and is today incor
With the emergence of industrialisation, the work-life balance has become a point of discussion in many industries, among which the aviation industry. Distortions in the work-life balance became especially apparent when 24/7 economies evolved, and industries made a transition to facilitate and serve these economies. Incidents and accident have since then been related to fatigue more than before. T
Climate change is a fact and the potential climate change impacts on infrastructure are necessary to examine to ensure the safety and performance of societies. The evidence for climate change is overwhelming, the changes have been observed and the projected future based on models indicate further change. Several of the climate change impacts are predictable, though the magnitude of the changes is
Hydropower is simply the largest source of renewable energy in the Nordic countries, where It compose around 90% of power production in Iceland, 70% in Norway, 40% in Sweden and 20% in Finland. Mountainous terrain and abundance in the surface water is a significant contributing factor in hydropower production. Hydropower is also considered more reliable and continuous than other forms of renewable
This master thesis contributed to a project financed by the Swedish Energy Agency and managed by the housing company Eksta AB in collaboration with the consulting Company WSP. The main aim of this master thesis was to perform a theoretical optimization on the usage of own used solar electricity by transferring the surplus PV between buildings in a demonstration area in a DC-microgrid. To achieve th
De senaste tio åren har antalet sökta bygglov för småhus med träregelstomme mer än fördubblats. I dagsläget finns inget allmänt krav att säkerställa horisontalkapacitet för småhus men är något som beställaren kan efterfråga och som många konstruktörer någon gång upplevt problematiskt. Projekteringsfasen kan bli tidskrävande där lösningar för att fastställa kapacitet mot vindlast blir dyra och kompIn the last ten years, the number of building permits applied for houses with timber frame structure has more than doubled. Today, there is no general requirement to establish horizontal capacity, but is something that can be demanded and that many structural engineers have occasionally experienced as problematic. The design phase can then be time-consuming, where solutions for determining capacit
Sett till EU:s totala koldioxidutsläpp står byggnadernas energianvändning för en tredjedel av dem (Regeringskansliet 2023). Sverige har ett energipolitiskt mål om att ha en 50 % effektivare energianvändning till 2030, jämfört med 2005, benämnt energiintensitetsmålet. En stor del av den befintliga bebyggelsen i vårt samhälle har ett högt energibehov. Med ökade krav på energieffektivisering av det bOne third of the EU's carbon emissions come from buildings energy use. Sweden aims for 50% more energy efficiency by year 2030, compared to year 2005. Existing buildings, with high energy demands, require renovations for energy efficiency. However, it is crucial to consider the climate impact of such upgrades. Window renovations are one option. This study explores the complexities of improving
This study used the urban context of Brunnshög, Sweden as a real case study to assess non-visual daylight conditions in urban environments. More precisely, the work was focusing on how the light spectrum – through surrounding façade colour and window type – can have an impact on the circadian potential. A one-bedroom apartment opening onto a courtyard on the ground floor and the same apartment on
Försörjning av varor och tjänster är en grundläggande del av ett fungerande samhälle, och stora delar av denna försörjning sker genom näringslivet och kritiska infrastrukturer. Hot i form av klimatförändringar och antagonistiska handlingar är centrala aspekter att beakta i utformningen av viktiga samhällsfunktioner för att kunna förebygga och hantera kriser. Under de senaste 10-15 åren har klimataThe supply of goods and services is a fundamental part of a functional society, and most of this supply is driven by businesses and critical infrastructures. In the shaping of vital societal functions, threats like climate change and antagonistic acts are central aspects to consider to prevent and manage potential crises. In the last 10-15 years, climate change adaption has become a tool for mitig
Although a large volume of work has been conducted regarding tourism industries across the world, the dominant analysis in the geographies of tourism tends to draw upon post-modern discourse analysis and representational theories. This has resulted in calls to develop more materialist analyses of tourism landscapes. Using the case study of Long Bay, a small coastal settlement in Portland parish, J
The study consisted of an analysis of buildings with different forms, based on residential archetypes, and an assessment of their energy demand and environmental impact, for Swedish conditions. A Shoebox Study was performed, including seven building archetypes, developed by assembling basic units, shaped like a shoebox. A number of form-defining properties was selected based on the literature revi
In this thesis, it is investigated how the general public and fire safety experts perceive the fire fatality risk of different socio-demographic factors in residential settings. Their perceptions were compared with how the socio-demographic factors correlate with the risk of fatal fires in residents in reality. The purpose of this work was to find out where resources need to be directed and who ne
Bygg- och fastighetssektorn stod år 2020 för 21% av Sveriges totala utsläpp av växthusgaser (Boverket, 2023a). För att synliggöra och därigenom minska klimatpåverkan vid uppförandet av nya byggnader blev det den 1 januari 2022 obligatoriskt att genomföra klimatdeklaration av nya byggnader som kräver bygglov, med vissa undantag (Boverket, 2021a). Klimatdeklarationen ska redovisa klimatpåverkan frånThe construction and real estate sector accounted for 21 % of Sweden’s total green-house gas emissions in 2020. To mitigate the impact of new buildings, the Swedish government introduced a new law on climate declaration for new buildings called “lag om klimatdeklaration”. The law requires most new buildings, which already re-quired building permits, to perform a climate declaration. The climate de
BACKGROUND: The implementation of COVID-19 vaccination among older persons at nursing homes has lowered the infection-associated mortality considerably, but emerging virus variants and decline in vaccine-induced immunity over time necessitate examination of future booster dosing strategies. The overall aim of this study was to assess vaccine protection against COVID-19 mortality in relation to tim

En grundvattenundersökning i ett område präglat av vattenrelaterade problem. Staden Cochabamba i Bolivia står inför flera vattenrelaterade utmaningar såsom brist på ytvatten, en ökande vattenanvändning, urbanisering och en sjunkande grundvattennivå. Samtidigt råder det en brist på kunskap angående de processer som påverkar grundvattnet i området. Något som detta examensarbete ämnar att förändra. The Central Valley of Cochabamba is located in the Andes mountain range, Bolivia. This region experiences several water related challenges such as a scarcity of surface water, an increasing water demand, a growing urbanization in groundwater recharge areas, and a declining water table due to intensive groundwater extraction. The valley has been influenced by both alluvial and fluvial depositions t
