Syfte: Studiens syfte var att kartlägga om, och i så fall hur, ergonomer inom företagshälsovården utreder och hjälper personer med arbetsrelaterade röstbesvär. Metod: Fyra ergonomer med koppling till fem olika företagshälsor deltog i studien. Samtliga deltagare arbetade vid tidpunkten för studien som ergonomer. Datan samlades in genom individuella semistrukturerade intervjuer. Datan analyserades
In today’s business world, organisations must constantly adapt and remain flexible in order to succeed. In the complex situation that organisational change entails, middle managers play a key role, as they are positioned between top management and employees and are responsible for communication between these levels. Middle managers occupy a dual role, in which they are required to interpret change
Workplace social activities are commonly used by organisations to strengthen connection and belonging among employees, yet how employees actually interpret and make sense of these activities remains underexplored. This study explores how employees make sense of workplace social activities and how these interpretations shape their sense of belonging and organisational identification. A qualitative
This thesis investigates non-intrusive Room Impulse Response (RIR) estimation using music as an excitation signal in an acoustic environment with background noise present. The work studies the structure of room impulse responses, sparse background noise, babble noise, and music excitation signals in the context of RIR estimation. Building on the recently proposed AnyRIR estimator, which explored s
This study aims to explore how finance managers in Indonesian subsidiaries perceive management control systems implemented by headquarters, based on an understanding of how these controls are designed and used. The study also examines how institutional duality shapes these perceptions within headquarters–subsidiary interactions.
α-CGRP 8-37 is a peptide fragment of calcitonin gene-related peptide and is commonly used as a CGRP antagonist in pharmacological research. CGRP signaling has been discussed in relation to neuroimmune mechanisms in psoriasis, but a practical development of α-CGRP 8-37 requires analytical methods and formulation strategies that can handle peptide instability, adsorption, and matrix effects. The aim
Detta examensarbete undersöker hur befintliga styrsystem i ABB SattLine kan konverteras till ABB System 800xA på ett mer strukturerat, spårbart och delvis automatiserat sätt. Bakgrunden är att många industriella anläggningar fortfarande använder SattLine trots att systemet idag befinner sig i en sen livscykelfas, vilket skapar behov av modernisering till en plattform med bättre framtida stöd och uThis thesis investigates how existing control systems in ABB SattLine can be converted to ABB System 800xA in a more structured, traceable, and partly automated way. The background is that many industrial plants still rely on SattLine even though the system is now in a late lifecycle phase, creating a need to modernize to a platform with better long-term support and development possibilities. The
This study investigates patterns of set fires and vandalism in Malmö. An aim to understand spatial, temporal, and social patterns of such phenomena underpins the study. The research questions are: “How are vandalism and set fires distributed geographically in Malmö?”, “How does the geographical distribution of crimes correlate with school holidays and vacation?” and “To what extent does socioecono
The increasing demand for electric vehicle charging stations creates new challenges for electric grid planning. This thesis proposes a framework for forecasting realistic 24-hour peak load profiles for new direct current fast-charging stations without historical observations. The method combines $K$-means clustering of existing stations’ hourly load patterns and random forest models that predict b
This paper examines whether Global Environment Facility (GEF) financing systematically disadvantages climate-vulnerable and low-capacity countries, and whether this operates through GEF's own grant allocation or co-financiers' independent decisions. By using 3,581 single-country GEF projects approved between 1996 and 2026, it estimates OLS regressions examining how governance quality and c
Fingerprint recognition has become a popular authentication method in modern smartphones, replacing traditional passwords and PINs. However, smartphone fingerprint sensors are small and capture only partial fingerprints with limited resolution. Combined with varying image quality and inconsistent finger placement, multiple images must be stored per user to ensure reliable authentication. During ve
In recent years, the future of Bromma Airport in Stockholm has become a recurring and contested issue in Swedish public debate, shaped by shifting political priorities, climate ambitions and urban development needs. This thesis examines how Bromma Airport is problematized in Swedish public documents, which competing actors and discourses can be identified and how are arguments for and against clos
This study explores how knowledge, communication, and influence are organized within the consultation reports of the Swedish urban planning practice. The study is based on collaborative planning theory and analyses the extent to which the consultative process is grounded in collaborative or performance- or criteria-driven planning logic. Through a qualitative content analysis of consultation repor
This thesis explores how immersive virtual reality can be designed to support emotional engagement, relaxation, and a sense of connection to nature. Based on experience design and gesture interaction theory, this project developed a VR experience titled "Night Journey". In this experience, users can explore a virtual nature and interact with a responsive ecosystem through natural body ge
This study examines how transportation justice is expressed and materialized in the urban district of Brunnshög in Lund, Sweden. The study is situated within contemporary debates on sustainable mobility, reduced car dependency, and socially just urban planning. Its aim is to analyze Brunnshög’s transportation system from a justice perspective in order to examine both how justice ideals are express
The current crime debate in Sweden surrounds the overarching issue of criminal networks and children’s exploitation by them. In Sweden, younger children are getting involved in serious criminality, carrying out offences for criminal gangs such as murder and aggravated weapons crimes, which has sparked the government’s interest in possible changes to the youth criminal justice system. One of those
This study investigates how varying hyperparameters of the Synthetic Minority Over-sampling Technique (SMOTE) affects the stability of model explanations produced by SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) and Local Interpretable Modelagnostic Explanations (LIME). By using an eXtreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost) classifier trained on 11 medical datasets with varying imbalance ratios, four SMOTE parame
