I takt med både vägnätets expansion och trafikbelastningens ökning på vägarna blir det viktigare att mäta och analysera vägars bärighet samt spårdjupsutveckling. Ökad trafikbelastning, särskilt från tung trafik, påskyndar effekten av vägars nedbrytning. Denna trafikökning beror framför allt på näringslivets utveckling och har resulterat i att vägarna utsätts för mer belastning än vad de är dimensiAs the road network expands and traffic load increases, accurate measurement and analysis of road bearing capacity and rut depth development become more important. Increased traffic load accelerates road degradation, leading to bearing capacity deficiencies. Regular maintenance is crucial to avoid high costs. This study investigates the relationship between bearing capacity and rut depth developme

Denna uppsats har undersökt rättssäkerhetsaspekterna vid separation av barn och unga i Statens institutionsstyrelses (SiS) särskilda ungdomshem, med särskilt fokus på personalens utbildningsnivå samt tillsynens effektivitet.

En tredjedel av maten vi produceras slängs, mat som har tagit resurser och landyta i anspråk för att bli till. För att få bukt med det globala matsvinnet har FN satt ett hållbarhetsmål att halvera matsvinnet inom mathandel och hushåll till 2030. En faktor som kan kopplas till matsvinn är förpackningar. När de används korrekt förhindrar förpackningar matsvinn genom att ge skydd och ökad hållbarhet,Globally, about a third of the food produced is wasted. To address this issue, the United Nations has set a sustainability goal of reducing food waste in retail and household by 50\% to 2030. One factor that can be connected to the generation of food waste is packaging. When applied correctly, packaging prevents waste by providing protection and shelf life, but when packaging does not meet consume
