The global climate is changing, mostly due to human impacts of greenhouse gases emissions. These changes in climate have lead to an increase in global warming, increasing extreme storm events and an increase in sea-level etcetera. Areas located along the coast will suffer from coastal erosion and flooding as a result of the impact from the climate changes. These impacts can lead to major socio-eco
Carbonatite is an unusual type of rock that, for a long time, were not accepted for what they really are. This group of rocks is now considered to be of igneous origin and is classified after its content of carbonate minerals. If it exceed 50% the rock will be named a carbonatite. This group of rocks can be found all over the world and two of these places, which this review will focus on, are the
Landskapsformen drumlin har länge diskuterats inom akademin och den här studen syftar till att sprida lite ljus över dom. Genom att kartlägga två drumlinområden runt sjön Åsnen i Småland, södra Sverige har deras utsträckning kartlagts med en precision som länge ansetts omöjligt. Detta gjordes genom att använda hög upplösta hillshade modeller framtagna från LiDAR data för att efter att ha analysera
In this study I address the issue of sustainable food production through the concept of Industrial Symbiosis (IS). Food production constitutes a key driver of environmental degradation and is prospected to accelerate its impacts with a constantly growing world population. Unsustainable and inefficient resource and energy use in the production sector further intensifies these problems. Through stud
Overconsumption of fossil fuels and an increase in greenhouse gas emissions are causing a greenhouse effect, which lead to a rise in average temperatures globally and contribute to global climate change. The construction sector has been identified as responsible for some of the highest levels of resource use and waste emissions across the globe, compared with other sectors. Tackling the constructi
I svensk rätt finns det en huvudregel i 21 kap. 2 § rättegångsbalken om en skyldighet för en misstänkt i brottmål att närvara vid huvudförhandling i tingsrätt och hovrätt. En sådan skyldighet finns inte om målet kan avgöras utan att den misstänkte är närvarande och närvaron kan antas vara utan betydelse för utredningen. Är den misstänkte skyldig att infinna sig personligen, ska rätten förordna om
Large district heating networks often have a complex structure that requires iterative calculations to determine the flow distribution throughout the network. This Master’s thesis describes a piece of software implementing methods and data structures to determine and present the flow distribution and pressure state in such district heating networks. The purpose of the thesis work was to create a t
Cities face growing pressures from increasing populations, giving rise to environmental and social problems. The transition towards more sustainable urban areas has thus become an urgent matter, demanding innovative solutions and means to test and deploy them. Urban Living Labs (ULLs) have emerged as a new approach to experimentation in real-life city settings. This thesis seeks to examine how ULL
When a infrastructure project need to be done the planning process is needed. To inform but also to get input to the idea that´s suggested a consultation with the individual concerned is needed. Consultation is the best way for individual concerned to comment the project. To consult with the concerned is essential for upcoming project. The people need to have an opportunity to get involved into th
HVAC systems are widely used to provide a good indoor air quality in buildings. Buildings stand for a substantial part of the total energy consumption in developed countries, and with an increased focus on cost reductions and energy savings, it is necessary to use intelligent and energy-efficient controllers. Accurate models describing the dynamics of the building system is a good basis for intel
På Älgön, SV Sverige, finns en anortosit-norit intrusion tillhörande Hakefjordenkomplexet. Det finns dessutom två tillhörande enheter; en marginell monzonorit och en centralt belägen ilmenitberikad norit (IRL). I den ilmenitberikade noriten finns även olika sorters aggregat av Fe-Ti oxider. Genom att undersöka Mn-innehållet i ilmenit i alla litologiska enheter var det möjligt att få fram en kronol
Incubators can widely be defined as an organization, providing moderately priced office space and central services to young companies with the goal to support the start of these firms (Allen & McCluskey, 1990). However, the variety of incubator services is high, and there is limited research in the field of customer satisfaction in incubators. Therefore, the aim of this study is to enhance the
Den aktuella studien genomfördes med hjälp av en internetenkät bestående av ett experiment där tiden det tog att läsa korta informationstexter mättes och jämfördes beroende på olika pronomen (han, hon, han/hon och det nya genusneutrala ordet hen). Den senare delen av studien bestod av instrument som syftade att mäta mediatorer gällande pronomens inverkan på läshastighet samt för att predicera delt

Familjeterapi är en vanlig behandlingsform för unga med anorexia nervosa. Att behandla flera familjer samtidigt, genom multifamiljebehandling, är dock relativt nytt i Sverige. Det fanns därför behov av att utvärdera deltagarnas egna upplevelser av själva behandlingen. Examensarbetet bestod av två studier. Studie 1 baserades på viktuppgifter för 72 patienter och självrapporterade data om anorektis
