The increasing amount of renewable energy in the electrical grid comes with several challenges, of which overvoltage and congestion (overcurrents) are the subjects of this work. One flexible way of handling these problems is active management by some control system. There is a trade-off between simplicity when implementing the control system and the performance. In the project Active Network Manag

The outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic triggered changed circumstances extensively. One aspect of such changes arise from issues in cross-border supply contracts, for example due to incapability of contractual performance because of entry bans and lack of labor force as the employees were set on quarantines. Usually contractual non-performance leads to breacher’s liability for damages, but exceptio

Detta är en kvalitativ studie som syftar till att undersöka hur transpersoner från deras egna perspektiv diskuterar utsatthet för hatbrott och den eventuella påverkan det medför. Syftet baserades dels på ett nyligen tillkommit hatbrottsmotiv för könsöverskridande identitet och uttryck samt dels en brist på kvalitativ forskning om hatbrott mot transpersoner. Den fråga som ämnades att besvaras var:

Reducing the environmental impact from packaging has become a highlight in both consumers and industrial interest. The paperboard from virgin fibres is commonly used in the folding carton packaging across various type of products, including health care products. It provides the premium perception to the product value yet less circulates the fibre economy. After the paperboard folding carton serves

Ecosystem services from forests provide society with a multitude of benefits. However, current research shows that in Swedish forests aspects of ecosystem services have a status ranging from “moderate” to “inadequate”. The Swedish Environmental Protection Agency set up environmental quality objectives (EQOs) specifically with the aim of identifying environmental problems that need to be addressed

This thesis aims to investigate the automatic tuning of hardware parameters in a camera's image processing pipeline. In order to solve the tuning problem, it is formulated as a black-box optimization problem centered around a physical camera unit. Optimization is performed by comparing the camera's output to a reference image. Several black-box optimization algorithms were tested: Bayesian

This thesis concerns oaths, curses, and prayers in Roman comedy, more precisely the comedies by the playwriter Terence (185/84 - 159 BC). So-called informal/interjectional oaths and prayers constitute the main focus of this investigation, however, asseverations, formal oaths, formal prayers, and curses are included as well. In this study, carried out by utilizing the methodological frameworks herm

This work studies the role of art in the novel Difficult Light, by the Colombian writer Tomás González, by applying traditional aesthetic concepts from Taoism and Zen Buddhism. To this end, correspondences between Taoist and Zen Buddhist thinking and the author's ideological stance are identified. Also, the interaction of Difficult Light with other texts that make up González's narrative u

Vår kunskap om växter har ökat sedan den första jordbruksrevolutionen för mer än 10.000 år sedan, men det är fortfarande mycket vi inte vet. Med moderna mikroskop och genmodifieringstekniker har växtcellernas inre processer börjat kartläggas. Genom att använda fluorescerande markörer som är bundna till de protein man vill undersöka så kan man se var dessa proteiner finns på cellnivå. Ett problem äA problem with cellular image data from plant tissues is that it is difficult to compile and compare data from different specimens due to their varying morphology. In this thesis, a method for compiling image data from different tissues in a unified geometry is developed and evaluated on early floral buds of Arabidopsis thaliana. The proposed method can transfer subcellular resolution data between

Med allt större efterfrågan på tillgänglig data ökar antalet REST API:er markant världen över. Varje REST API har någon form av referensdokumentation, vilket är avgörande för förståelsen samt användandet av ett API. Samtliga API-leverantörer bör således överväga optimering av referensdokumentationens användbarhet för att underlätta inlärning och användning av sin produkt. Denna masteravhandling uWith an increasingly growing demand for accessible data, the amount of REST API:s worldwide is growing. All REST API:s come with some form of reference documentation, which is crucial for the comprehension and usage of the API. Every API provider should therefore consider the usability of their reference documentation, to facilitate the learning and usage of their product. This master's thesi

This study conducted an evaluation of the energy performance of a building complex located in Lund. Since the complex has a great need for renovation, five renovation measures were proposed. In order to improve thermal insulation and airtightness of the external walls, replacing the old double-glazed windows with more insulated triple-glazed windows, mounting Smart1 to replace part of the ventilat

En krossad vision? Efter 20 år - mindre grönytor på Bo01 På Bo01 planerades en ekologiskt hållbar stadsdel med mycket grönska och vatten. Stor vikt lades vid att planera innergårdarna för att få plats med så mycket gröna områden som möjligt. Idag har dock både mängden grönska och mängden vatten på gårdarna minskat. Vad kan det bero på? En stad utan grönska och vatten ger en sämre livskvalitet. Greenery and water create ecosystem services that are particularly important in cities, where these areas can be limited. It is therefore important that greenery and water are well incorporated in the planning stage of city development. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the biotope area factor of six different apartment courtyards that were a part of the housing fair Bo01 in Malmö, Sweden.

This ethnographic study investigates the rising Hanfu movement in China. Hanfu, literally means the clothing of Han ethnicity, but it is a newly coined terminology. The movement takes Hanfu as a symbol and aims to redefine the position of Han ethnicity in Chinese society and extend the influence of Chinese culture in the worldwide. Methods including interviewing, netnography and critical discourse

Utvecklingen av samhällsfastigheter har under de senaste åren gått från att vara en kommunal angelägenhet till något som allt fler aktörer fått upp ögonen för. Ett stort behov av skolplatser och särskilda boenden för äldre har inneburit att flera svenska kommuner avyttrat sin mark till både privata och kommunala bolag som får stå för utvecklingen av morgondagens skolor och äldreboenden. FörsäljninIn recent years, the development of properties for public use has gone from being only a municipal matter to a segment with an increasing number of stakeholders. A rising need for school facilities and residential care homes has resulted Swedish municipalities divesting properties to private or public companies. The sale of land own by municipalities shall be made to a market value according to th

Sustainability reporting is the primary way corporate sustainability data is disseminated to stakeholders and the wider public. While sustainability reporting is growing, certain industries still lag, such as shipping. Given the crucial role sustainability reporting can play in driving sustainable business practices, promoting improved reporting in the shipping industry is a valuable goal. This t

This study examines the challenges related to global talent management (GTM) and employer branding (EB) strategies of multinational enterprises (MNE) within the automotive industry. Caused by increasing global talent shortages, the practices of GTM and EB have gained much attention in academic literature but are argued to be subject to integration-responsiveness tensions based on endogenous and ex

Darfurkonflikten är en av de mest våldsamma och brutala konflikter som har präglat 2000-talet. Vad som har orsakat konflikten är en fråga som har delat den akademiska världen i två tydliga läger, ett som argumenterar för att klimatförändringarna är den primära orsaken till konflikten. Medan andra hävdar att politiska beslut ligger bakom det hatt och splittringar som har präglat konflikten. SamtidiThe Darfur conflict is one of the most violent and brutal conflicts during the 21st century. There is still an ongoing debate over the cause of the conflict that has split the academic world in primarily two different camps. One that argues that climate change is the primary cause of the conflict, and another that argues that political decisions are the main factor for the conflict. At the same ti
