Stockout delay is an important component of lead time calculations in inventory control literature. This thesis presents a deep dive into the topic through a literature review, which is accompanied by a numerical study. This numerical study provides a comparison of available models along with a simulation model that looks at two different order fulfillment types: complete and partial. Based on the
This study aims to explore the importance of relations as a contributing factor to attendance-promoting work. It’s a qualitative semi-structured interview study that is based on the perspectives of seven professionals in different compulsory schools in southern Sweden. The professionals who were interviewed are two school counselors, one school psychologist, two special education teachers, and two
The seminal microbiome remains undercharacterised despite its potential role as a microbial reservoir influencing female partner reproductive health. This study applied Oxford Nanopore full-length 16S rRNA sequencing (V1–V9) with EMU v3.6.1 classification to characterise the seminal microbiome of 288 men enrolled in the couple-based Copenhagen Pregnancy Loss cohort. The seminal community was polym
Sedan 2018 har man sett en paradoxal utveckling på den svenska bostadsmarknaden där en fortsatt bostadsbrist samexisterar med ökande vakanser. Samtidigt som kötiderna till hyresrätter är långa och 24 av 26 kommuner i Storstockholm uppger att de har ett bostadsunderskott, är uthyrningsarbetet med nyproducerade lägenheter mer krävande än någonsin. Föreliggande studie syftar därav till att identifierSince 2018, the Swedish housing market has exhibited a paradoxical development in which a persistent housing shortage coexists with increasing vacancies. The simultaneous progression of these seemingly anti-correlated trends raises important questions regarding the functioning of the residential real estate sector. This thesis examines why the residential Swedish rental market continues to produce
This thesis explores the phenomenon of quiet-luxury-inspired imitation fashion products in China. In recent years, quiet luxury has regained increasing visibility as a fashion aesthetic associated with understated design, subtle distinction, and material quality. With this trend, Chinese e-commerce platforms have seen the growth of brands that imitate the aesthetic and material qualities of high-e
This thesis examines how the European Court of Human Rights has applied Article 3 of the European Convention on Human Rights at Europe’s land borders in cases where states rely on the logic of the fiction of non-entry, that is, the legal technique through which states treat individuals who are physically present at the border as if they have not yet legally entered the territory. Through a doctrin
GROWTH. reconsiders the notion of growth in architecture, not as a process of continuous expansion, but as a cyclical condition of emergence, stabilization, decay, and regeneration observed in natural ecosystems. Positioned between regenerative agriculture, computational design, and material-driven architectural practice, the thesis investigates how the growth cycles of biotic materials can become
Drinking water distribution systems directly affect the quality of life, public health, and the reliability of essential water services. This study evaluates the hydraulic performance and operational efficiency of the Kirke Eskilstrup drinking water distribution network in Denmark using hydraulic modelling in MIKE+. Furthermore, a stakeholder value analysis was included to identify how the modelli
The following study examines how Viktor Orbán’s illiberal democracy has influenced political development and democratic competition in Hungary, as well as how the opposition party Tisza positions itself in relation to the political system established under Fidesz rule. The study is situated within the broader discussion on democratic backsliding and illiberal democracy in Central and Eastern Europ
Bakgrund: Byggprojekt i täta, urbana och aktiva miljöer ställer höga krav på logistisk koordinering, planering och hantering av materialflöden. Ökad projektkomplexitet, begränsade ytor på byggarbetsplatsen och pågående verksamheter i omgivningen skapar stora utmaningar för leveranser i byggprojekt. Dessa utmaningar inkluderar begränsad lagringskapacitet, transportrelaterade svårigheter samt behovBackground: Construction projects in dense urban and operational environments place high demands on logistics integration, planning, and material flow management. Increased project complexity, limited site space, and ongoing surrounding operations create major delivery challenges in construction projects. These challenges include limited storage capacity, transportation difficulties, and the need
As global populations age at an unprecedented rate, cities are increasingly becoming the primary environments where later life unfolds. This thesis explores how urban design can better respond to the everyday needs of older adults, focusing on the concept of ageing in place - the ability to live independently, safely, and meaningfully within one’s own home and neighborhood. While ageing in place i
This study aimed to examine how social workers facilitate children's participation in investigations and decision-making processes concerning children whose parents have ongoing alcohol misuse, and identify factors influencing opportunities for participation. The study was based on a qualitative research design using semi-structured interviews with social workers working within child welfare s
The purpose of this thesis is to examine the extend of cybersecurity obligations imposed on healthcare providers under EU law. To achieve this, the research questions focus on selected parts of the NIS 2 Directive and the Cybersecurity Act. Particular attention is afforded cybersecurity risk-management measures required under Article 21 of the NIS 2 Directive, as well as the role of certification
Sweden restructured its asylum reception system in 2025, shifting from a model that allowed asylum seekers to arrange their own accommodation towards one that encourages residence in centrally managed facilities operated by the Swedish Migration Agency. This study examines how the location of eleven reception centres operating after the reform affects asylum seekers’ well-being and integration out
Degrowth has emerged as a critical framework challenging the dominant assumption that continuous economic growth is necessary for human progress and well-being. While degrowth offers important critiques of capitalist accumulation, ecological destruction, and growth-oriented development, the field has largely been shaped by Western intellectual traditions and policy discourses. It has also yet to e
This thesis explores the transformative potential of degrowth-aligned initiatives in Malmö and examines the extent to which they can be understood as alternatives to growth-oriented systems. Grounded in degrowth theory, diverse economies, and socio-ecological transformation literature, the study investigates how localized initiatives negotiate ecological limits, social relations, and institutional
Society is increasingly affected by air pollution. Therefore, particulate matter and its effects on the environment and human health is important to study. One important group of organic compounds that are present in particulate matter is polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). These are formed during combustion and are known to have carcinogenic properties. An efficient extraction method is impo
This thesis interrogates Rome’s housing cooperative sector, focusing on the challenges and opportunities housing cooperatives face in providing affordable housing for their members. It analyses Rome’s housing regime to present the housing context in which housing cooperatives operate. The thesis explores what housing affordability means within the eternal city, moving beyond a simple income ratio
Värmeböljor förväntas bli vanligare och mer intensiva till följd av klimatförändringar vilket ökar behovet av geografiska analyser av värmesårbarhet i urbana miljöer som är särskilt värmeutsatta. Denna studie undersöker hur olika metoder för konstruktion av värmesårbarhetsindex påverkar identifieringen av sårbara områden i Malmö. Två etablerade metoder jämförs: ett additivt, oviktat index och ett Heatwaves are expected to become more frequent and intense because of climate change, increasing the need for geographical analyses of heat vulnerability, particularly in heat-exposed urban environments. This study examines how different methods for constructing heat vulnerability indices affect the identification of vulnerable areas in Malmö. Two established methods are compared: an additive, unw
