Audio Description (AD) is developing fast, becoming the norm for big streaming platforms. However, the research field remains largely underexplored. When comparing AD practices between countries, studies seem to focus on guidelines rather than how these are used, or not, by audio describers. Additionally, not enough emphasis is placed on cross-varietal differences of English AD, and in cases when
Bakgrund: Forskning visar att ett extrema inomhustemperaturer påverkar bland annat människors prestationsförmåga och förmågan att koncentrera sig. Dessutom kan ett dåligt inomhusklimat leda till hälsobesvär hos brukarna. Det är således viktigt att säkerställa att byggnader har ett bra inomhusklimat. Medeltemperaturen på jorden ökar, vilket leder också till att inomhustemperaturen ökar. Därför är Research shows that the indoor environment can have a negative impact on the users’ performance and concentration. An extreme indoor environment might lead to health problems for the users. It is therefore important to ensure that buildings have a good indoor environment. The aim of this thesis is to compare physical measurements with computer simulations regarding indoor environmental parameters.

Sustainability communication within the fashion industry remains constrained despite a growing focus on sustainability initiatives by brands. This master’s thesis investigates this constraint, often referred to as ‘green blushing’. Using qualitative research methods, this study examines the phenomenon through a case study of the Swedish fashion brand Kappahl. The findings reveal various factors co
Bakgrund: För att nå samhällets satta klimatmål behöver energiförbrukningen sänkas. Målet genererar ett behov att utforska nya energieffektivare ventilationslösningar. Ett alternativ är att använda markförlagd ventilation som är en mer etablerad teknik i varmare klimat och nyttan med ett sådant system i svenskt klimat behöver därför undersökas. Systemets fördelar och problematik behöver utredas sa
