Nyköpingsområdet, som ligger i den Mellansvenska ändmoränzonen (MSEMZ), innehåller många spridda moränryggar. Medan andra delar av MSEMZ uppvisar spår av en isframstöt under yngre dryas, saknas sådana tecken i detta område. Istället uppvisar vissa av ryggarna i Nyköpingsområdet morfologier som liknar så kallade grounding zone wedges (GZW), vilka vanligtvis bildas subakvatiskt när iskanten tillfällThe Nyköping area, located within the Middle Swedish End Moraine Zone (MSEMZ), contains numerous scattered ridges. While other parts of the MSEMZ show evidence of an ice readvance during the Younger Dryas, such features are absent in this region. Instead, some of the ridges in the Nyköping area exhibit morphologies similar to grounding zone wedges (GZW), which typically form subaqueously at tempor

An integrated lunar habitat system is proposed, combining mycelium-based biological materials, autonomous robotic construction, and modular architectural strategies to enable long-term adaptation in extreme environments. Before human arrival, robotic units construct the primary structure and initiate mycelium growth along interior surfaces. This fungal layer functions as a living sensor network, w

This study discusses IKEA's brand storytelling across its official websites and Chinese social media platforms, with a focus on the balance between consistency and localisation in its brand narratives on the Swedish and Chinese official websites, as well as the expression of local adaptation in the brand's official accounts on Xiaohongshu and Weibo. Through multimodal social semiotic analy

Syftet: Studiens syfte är att undersöka konsumenters användning av produktrecensioner i samband med shopping online. Frågeställningar: "Hur använder konsumenter produktrecensioner vid shopping online och hur bidrar praktiken till att skapa mening?" "Vilken materialitet och vilka kompetenser behövs för att använda produktrecensioner online?" Teoretisk ansats & metod: Pra

The rapidly increasing use of AI-chatbots creates ever evolving questions of privacy concerns in end users where they have to evaluate where the line is drawn between personalization and privacy intrusion. The conducted literature review highlights the complex landscape of privacy theories, privacy concerns and human-AI interactions. Using this as a guide, a qualitative study has been conducted on

Denna uppsats undersöker wellnesskulturen genom en netnografisk studie av that girl-trenden på TikTok. Syftet är att analysera vad som framställs som eftersträvansvärt inom trenden, hur dessa ideal konstrueras samt hur legitimitet etableras. Uppsatsen syftar dessutom till att analysera hur detta fenomen kan förstås i relation till samtida wellnesskultur. Analysen grundas i Talcott Parsons teori om

In a country with over fifty spoken languages and a truly multilingual society, the existence of a single official language to unify the people may appear natural. However, when that language is inherited from former colonisers and is spoken fluently by less than 40% of the population, its status becomes questionable. This study investigates the use of French and language attitudes among a small

This study examines whether a persistently undervalued real exchange rate dampens transformation pressure and thereby slows productivity growth in Sweden’s manufacturing sector, with particular focus on export-oriented industries. The analysis suggests that chronic currency undervaluation may weaken firms’ incentives to innovate and improve efficiency, even as it temporarily boosts export competit

The purpose of our study was to examine the attitude of police officers toward collaborating with social services in exit programs, with a specific focus on organizational conditions and the relationship between the authorities. The empirical data consisted of interviews with six police officers, three of whom are based in Malmö, Sweden. The other three were located in different local police distr

Electronic Health Record (EHR) systems are central to modern healthcare, yet their practical impact on clinical workflows remains complex. This thesis explores the advantages and limitations physicians experience when using EHR systems in daily hospital work. Guided by the Systems Engineering Initiative for Patient Safety (SEIPS) framework, the study takes a socio-technical approach, focusing on h

This thesis presents a comprehensive study of performance characterization and quality control (QC) for the ATLAS Inner Tracker (ITk) silicon strip modules, undertaken in preparation for the High-Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC) upgrade. The work focuses on two aspects: test beam campaigns and thermal cycles. During the test beam campaigns at DESY in October and December 2024, unirradiate

Swedish social services and healthcare systems have been bound by law since 2010 to collaborate when a client requires multiple interventions. This is called a Coordinated Individual Plan (CIP) to prevent clients from being overlooked by healthcare and social services. There has since been published several official reports that highlight the shortcomings of CIP. Our aim of this study was to exami

Research question: In what way has Swedbank applied accounting communication surrounding the money laundering scandal and how has the communication developed and changed over time along the course of the event? Purpose: The purpose of the study was to examine how Swedbank applied accounting communication in order to manage and rebuild their reputation in connection to the money laundering scandal

Climate disruption poses existential threats to place-based communities, fundamentally challenging their collective identity and imagined futures. Transformative resilience, the capacity to "bounce forward" through fundamental system reorganization, represents one pathway through this crisis. Yet, despite widespread recognition of its importance, existing frameworks lack concrete methods

More than half of the world's population today lives in urban areas, and the relationship between the city and the sea has always played a central role. Studies show that access to waterfront environments in port cities historically been limited, but as urban development progresses, the coastline is gaining increasing significance in the urban context. This presents both opportunities and chal

Kvantmekaniken har sedan början av 1900-talet revolutionerat vår försåelse av fysik, framförallt hur ljus och partiklar fungerar och interagerar. En unik egenskap av kvantmekaniken är att den i grunden är en probibalistisk teori, vilket låter oss beskriva system som befinner sig i flera olika tillstånd samtidigt. Detta fenomenet kallas för superposition och är vad som gör kvantmekanik unikt från kQuantum mechanical technologies often relies on the system being cooled to low temperatures. One way to achieve this is with measurement and feedback based cooling. In this thesis measurement and feedback on a quantum harmonic oscillator coupled to a thermal reservoir is considered. The Wiseman-Milburn equation is used with a linear feedback control to find the steady-state solutions for the first

This study examines how the natural world – earth, water, air, and animals – function in Jerome's Letter 108 (c. 404 CE) and the Piacenza Pilgrim's Itinerarium (c. 560-570 CE). Both late antique Christian pilgrimage narratives have been extensively analyzed for their political, architectural, and hagiographic dimensions. However, their ecological perspectives have been consistently overloo

Austenitic steels are one of the most used stainless steels due to their good properties such as high strength and corrosion properties making them suitable for a material making brazed heat exchangers. Under the brazing process of the heat exchangers, the austenitic steels are unavoidable heat treated by the brazing atmosphere. Which is why the brazing furnaces use an “inert” environment such as

Nepal is in the midst of a double energy transition aiming to improve energy reliability whilst simultaneously increasing renewables. We consider to what degree and in which ways young entrepreneurs contribute in shaping Nepal's transitory landscape as a group with social power. To assess this, we developed the Participation in Energy Transitions (PET) framework integrating Energy- Literacy an
