Planerar du att bygga ett gemensamt avlopp med grannarna? Då ska du se upp med utförandetiden. De senaste åren har antalet gemensamhetsanläggningar som behöver avregistreras ökat och den tveklöst vanligaste anledningen är att anläggningen inte färdigställts inom den beslutade tiden för utförande. Att en gemensamhetsanläggning, en gemensamt bildad anläggning bildad för flera fastigheter, exempelviWhen a joint facility is not constructed on time or the payment for the compulsory purchase is absent the joint facility can be de-registered.

Byggbranschen står för 33% av Sveriges årliga energianvändning. Genom att göra nödvändiga förändringar så som att renovera befintliga byggnader på ett miljösmart sätt kan energi- och miljöbesparingar göras med mer eller mindre enkla medel. I denna studie, som initierades av Trelleborgs Energi AB, undersöktes hur deras kontorsbyggnad kunde bli så innovativ, hållbar och energieffektiv som möjligt. SThe construction industry is responsible for 33% of Sweden’s annual energy consumption. Important environmental and energy savings can be done by renovating already existing buildings with a climate smart mindset. This study was executed on behalf of Trelleborg Energi AB to investigate how their office building can become as innovative, sustainable and energy efficient as possible. The study was a

The stock market has come to play a larger role in many people's lives as years pass and its accessibility has come to be exponentially easier for many. Investment in publicly listed companies has become a foundation of saving and a way of managing wealth for the general public. Even though the stock market permeates many of our daily lives and is heavily monitored and regulated, there is stil

As the population is growing and planetary boundaries are being strained, the agro-food industry is facing major challenges. Previous research has proposed the innovation of vertical farming (VF) as a potential solution. This study contributes to the existing VF literature with an examination of the opportunities and obstacles for the implementation and upscaling of VF in Sweden. The VF industry i

Companies engaged in Corporate Venture Capital (CVC) continuously scour the globe for new opportunities to grow beyond their current geographic boundaries. However, different regions of the world have various monitoring, governance, and value-adding principles. CVCs should be aware of these variations. Human capital is culturally unique to a company and a potential critical determinant in CVC stra

Är de stora företagens klimatambitioner tillräckliga för att vi ska kunna nå 1,5°C målet? 2015 skapades Parisavtalet, där världens länder sammanslutet bestämde sig för att hålla uppvärmningen från klimatförändringarna långt under 2°C, med intentioner att hålla uppvärmningen under 1,5°C. Världens företag beräknas enligt ett flertal aktörer stå för den större andelen av världens utsläpp, ett exempel2015 the Paris Agreement was negotiated, where the worlds nations agreed to keep the heating of the climate changes far below 2°C, with intentions to keep it under 1,5°C. This work studied the 105 largest Swedish companies listed on the stock exchange, their climate mitigation goals and whether they are in compliance with the 1,5°C target. The reason why this thesis is limited to 105 companies is

Trots att forskning i västerländska länder visat på en förändring i hur unga män uttrycker manlighet och vänskap, så kallad inkluderande maskulinitet (Anderson, 2012; McCormack, 2013), så har detta ännu inte gjort något större avtryck i svensk maskulinitetssforskning. Denna bidrar till detta forskningsfält genom att studera hur maskulinitet uttrycks i den svenska ungdomsserien Eagles, med hjälp av

The thesis examines the possibility of developing a system that can be used to detect the number of people in a given area with high accuracy. By using a variety of hardware components, publicly available object detection models and a cloud platform a highly modern approach is examined. The aim is to develop a cost-effective and scalable system which should be able to adapt to a given area. Differ

Initially, the subject of this paper was to investigate how the Swedish cultural heritage law (Kulturmiljölagen 1988:950) affects the church buildings of the Church of Sweden. When the parishes of the Church of Sweden wish to change their churches interiors to fit contemporary liturgical ideals they must first seek permission from the County Administrative Boards who ensures the preservation of th

This paper examines the carbon price dynamics in the European Emission Trading System (EU ETS). It seeks to answer whether these can be explained by marginal emission abatement costs, as stated by theoretical propositions. The primary abatement method, fuel switching, and other potential determinants are examined to test their relative importance in carbon price dynamics. The results from the perf

Brands in the fashion industry are currently going through extensive changes in their visual expressions. Logos are being redesigned to appear more simplistic and are leaving behind their complex and well-established design. For heritage brands, that rely heavily on their past as part of their branding, it is a challenge to maintain their brand identity while moving from a complex to a simple visu

Regionalism in Africa has surged since post-colonial times in a shared aim to consolidate resources and integrate national markets into a common entity. However, intra-regional in Africa has stagnated for decades owing to various structural and procedural roadblocks. Literature discusses that multiple memberships that member states obtain from different regional trade blocs complicate the trading

Baobab är ett träd som främst växer i Afrika, men även förekommer i östra Indien, Sydamerika och Australien. På träden, som kan bli upp till 20 meter höga, växer frukten Baobab. I vardagligt tal brukar frukten benämnas som apbröd, detta eftersom babianerna gärna äter sig mätta på frukten. Det är inte bara babianer som tycker om frukten, utan även människor. Frukten är näringsrik då den innehåller Introduction: In this work, oil from Baobab seeds was extracted and analysed in order to determine how much oil the seeds contain and the fatty acid composition of the seeds. Background: A lot of seeds go to waste when either producing drinks of Baobab fruit or simply eating the fruit raw. Thus, it would be favourable if it was possible to produce a product based on the left-over seeds, suitably
