Denna studie är en fallstudie av en byggnad belägen i Malmö, Sverige, som undersöker olika energieffektiva åtgärder och deras potentiella påverkan på byggnadens energikonsumtion. En förstudie genomfördes för att inhämta kunskap om tillämpliga energieffektiva åtgärder från befintlig forskning. Därefter genomfördes fallstudien i tre huvudsakliga faser. I den första fasen samlades byggnadsinformationThis study is a single case study of a building situated in Malmö, Sweden, examining various retrofit measures and their potential impact on the building’s energy performance. A pre-study was carried out to gain knowledge on applicable retrofitting measures from existing literature. Subsequently, the case study consisted of three major phases. In the first phase, building information was collected

Attosecond pulses allow the study of electrons on their natural timescale. They are created from the interaction of atoms with ultrashort, intense laser pulses whose electric field approaches the strength of inner-atomic electric fields. This thesis presents experiments around the generation, characterization and application of attosecond pulses. First, we study the influence of the atomic genera

Even though healthcare in Sweden is under pressure, assistant nurses are getting more tasks while still being asked to perform the current ones in a non-stressful manner. At the same time, the amount of people in need of assistance is increasing. A person asking for assistance with a basic task such as a shower is daunting. The purpose of this master thesis is to, through a design process, investi

Avtalsfrihet är en viktig princip i ett skiljeförfarande. Parterna kan genom avtal påverka handläggningen i skiljenämnden och konstruera regler som binder skiljemännen i bedömningen av deras tvist. Det finns dock begränsningar för avtalsfriheten, då förfarandet måste uppnå vissa rättssäkerhetsgarantier och parterna måste ha möjlighet att föra sin talan. Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka omFreedom of contract is an important principle in arbitration. The parties may by agreement affect the arbitration proceedings and construct procedural rules that bind the arbitrators in the assessment of their dispute. However, there are restrictions on the freedom of contract, since the procedure must attain certain procedural safeguards and the parties must have the opportunity to present their

Through econometric analysis, this thesis explores the relationship between Women’s Economic Empowerment (WEE), financial inclusion and economic development in 30 sub-Saharan African countries, with a special focus on Benin, Cameroon, Nigeria and Guinea. WEE is defined as the women’s ability to independently earn and control their income, seize economic opportunities and exercise their agency. Bui

In urban areas, the battle of space is more important than ever. The spaces and environments we grow up in are shown to be crucial for the identity we develop throughout our childhood. Therefore, the way our cities are designed and developed can largely impact who we become. The whole perception of society starts with children’s play, yet we tend to deprioritize their playing environments. For dec

Anomia or word retrieval difficulties are the most commonly observed symptoms in individuals with aphasia and often severely affect the communication abilities in their every day life. There are reports of word retrieval difficulties demarcated to different domains or categories. The most frequently reported form is that of deficits affecting the ability to name objects in the living domain as opp

The retailing sector plays an important role in sustainable development and climate change. The grocery retailer serves as an intermediary between suppliers and consumers, and is thus in direct contact on a daily basis with consumers. This gives all stakeholders unique position from which to influence each other, i.e. on the production and consumption part of products, but also on in-store activit

The industry of engineered nanoparticles (ENPs) has grown rapidly during the last decade, with for example carbon nanotubes (CNTs) incorporated in high-tech composites and nanosized TiO2 in sunscreens and paint. With an increased potential of human exposure to these novel ENPs, especially during production and handling of nanoparticles, the concern of risks when people become exposed has increased

Syftet med detta examensarbete var att undersöka hur agil utveckling och användarcentrerad design kan kombineras i en utvecklingsprocess. Undersökningen baseras sig på den utvecklingsprocess med Scrum som används på en sektion vid avdelningen Applikationer och Service på Sony Mobile Communications AB i Lund, Sverige. Det första målet med examensarbetet var att förse sektionen med ett antal förslaThe main purpose of this master´s thesis was to investigate how agile development and user-centered design can be combined in a development process. The target development process for this investigation was a development process at a section in the department Application and Service at Sony Mobile Communications AB in Lund, Sweden. The first goal of the thesis was to provide the section with a set

With the large amount of surveillance cameras in our public spaces there has been much discussion about their effects on privacy. Axis communications has an algorithm that tries to remedy this by making it hard to see who is in an image but still have it possible for a neural network to detect that there is a person present. This thesis explores how this algorithm needs to be adapted to be implem

Topics in pseudo-passives Eva Klingvall, Lund University Abstract This paper is concerned with the derivation of pseudo-passives, in particular in Swedish (e.g. den här sängen har sovits i ‘this bed has been slept in’). Previous analyses of pseudo-passives typically focus on English and take the preposition to be unable to assign case in these sentences, with the result that the prepositional co

Multi-target aptamer selection, known as multiplex systematic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment (SELEX), is rapidly drawing interest because of its potential to enable high-speed, high-throughput aptamer selection. The parallelization of chemical processes by integrating microfluidic unit operations is a key strategy for developing a multiplex SELEX process. One of the potential probl

This thesis measures cost efficiency in the production of health care and social services in Sweden. The object of analysis is not provider efficiency, but instead the relative efficiency of political organizations or different contractual arrangements. The thesis focuses on: 1) the measurement of cost efficiency, 2) the investigation of potential trade-offs between quantity of health care service

Electric breakdown in semihomogeneous geometries has been studied in n-hexane and transformer oil using a laser triggering method for fields far below the spontaneous breakdown field. The method uses a laser-produced plasma to initiate the breakdown. Strong self focusing in the liquids was limited by increasing the numerical aperture of the laser beam to > 0.20 prior to focusing. Electrical breakd
