From both a legal and business perspective, it is important for credit institutes to accurately assess the risk of default for potential borrowers. This is traditionally done using statistical methods, such as logistic regression or decision trees, utilising sociodemographic and credit history information.This thesis investigates whether a bureau score, provided by a credit bureau, should be incor

Revisorn i Sverige idag innehar en viktig uppgift. Detta då han eller hon har som huvuduppgift att granska och kontrollera att ett bolags förvaltning och rapportering är korrekt. Utöver detta har revisorn enligt 9 kap. 42–44 §§ aktiebolagslagen en skyldighet att vidta åtgärder om denne, vid sin granskning av bolaget, skulle finna misstankar om att ett brott har begåtts. Syftet med denna uppsats haThe auditor in Sweden today has an important task. This is because his or her main responsibility is to review and ensure that a company´s management and reports are accurate. In addition to this, the auditor has an obligation to act due to Chapter 9, Sections 42-44 the Swedish Companies Act if, during the audit of the company, he or she discovers suspicions that a crime has been committed within

Bakgrund: Barn-och ungdomar med psykisk ohälsa har ofta svårigheter att reglera sensoriska intryck i sin vardag, vilket påverkar målgruppens möjlighet att vara engagerad i aktiviteter i det dagliga livet. För att möta dessa svårigheter använder arbetsterapeuter inom psykiatrin i en internationell kontext sk. sensorisk modulering som intervention. Det är dock oklart hur det ser ut i svensk kontext,Background: Children and adolescent with mental illness often have difficulties regulating sensory inputs in their daily life, which affects their ability to engage in daily activities. To address these difficulties, occupational therapists in an international context, use so called sensory modulation interventions in psychiatry. However, it is unclear what this looks like in the Swedish context,

High temperature corrosion presents a challenge both in predicting material loss over time and in cleaning and reusing the material after oxidation cycles. This thesis investigates the oxidation behavior and descaling of different austenitic stainless steels exposed to a range of temperatures in an oxygen-rich environment. The first part of the project focused on developing a descaling method. Tw

Events in recent years have prompted a resurgence in Sweden’s civil defence planning, with national authorities increasingly focusing on securing the supply of critical goods and services such as food. Yet the societal functions that together uphold Sweden’s food system—primary production, manufacturing, distribution, and public meal service—are embedded in complex supply chains shaped by both dom

Parallellt med det svenska energisystemets elektrifiering så sker även en snabb utveckling av AI-verktyg. Dessa redskap medför helt nya möjligheter att ta olika former av datadrivna beslut vilket kan revolutionera delar av energisektorn. Samtidigt så är de inte helt oproblematiska, utan deras effekter måste analyseras grundligt för att de ska kunna leva upp till sin potential, samtidigt som effektThe Swedish energy system is currently in a transition, aiming for carbon neutrality. At the same time, AI technology is developing in a fast manner. These tools come with entirely new possibilities to make data driven decisions, which can revolutionize parts of the energy sector. At the same time, they come with their own challenges. Therefore, their effects must be thoroughly examined if they ar

Furfural, a renewable platform chemical derived from hemi cellulosic fraction of the lignocellulosic biomass, is a promising precursor for the sustainable production of 2,5- furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA), an important bio-based alternative to terephthalic acid. In this study, we utilized the oxidative capacity of Gluconobacter oxydans to oxidize furfural to 2-furoic acid and employed the UbiD-UbiX

This study examines how the Bird’s Nest in Beijing has been reused after the Olympics and how it is presented as a model of sustainable urban development. Using an Urban Political Ecology (UPE) perspective, it explores how sustainability is defined, implemented, and experienced. The research is based on policy analysis, critical discourse analysis, 20 interviews, and field observation. The finding

Denna studie undersöker hur kvinno-, tjej- och transjourer organiserar och upprätthåller sina verksamheter i relation till statliga bidragssystem, administrativa krav och föreställningar om värde. Studien bygger på kvalitativa semistrukturerade intervjuer med åtta personer verksamma inom olika jourorganisationer i Sverige. Materialet analyserades genom tematisk analys med utgångspunkt i teorier om

Carbon accounting has become an important part of sustainability governance, as organisations are increasingly expected to report and justify their climate impacts. However, emissions figures are not neutral technical outputs. They are shaped by methodological choices, boundaries, assumptions, data infrastructures, and professional judgement. This is especially relevant for municipalities, where c

Infrastructure barriers and high costs of alternative sustainable fuels constrain the global logistics sector's transition to decarbonization. This research investigates how logistics providers establish institutional trust in the 'Book and Claim' service, where the environmental benefits of sustainable fuels are spatially decoupled from the physical transport of goods. Because corpora

Syftet med examensarbetet är att undersöka vilka logistiska utmaningar som uppstår vid återbruksprojekt med mer storskaligt återbruk. Examensarbetet har utförts som en kvalitativ fallstudie där data har samlats in via delvis strukturerade intervjuer, en mindre dokumentstudie samt en jämförelse med ett tidigare forskningsprojekt. Intervjustudien utfördes med sju olika respondenter där fem av dem The purpose with the thesis is to analyse what logistical challenges occur in reuse projects with reuse on a larger scale. The thesis was performed as a qualitative case study where the data was gathered from semi structured interviews, a smaller document study as well as a compression to a research paper. The interview study was performed with seven different respondents where five of them had

On 13 May 2000, a fireworks depot exploded in a residential neighbourhood in Enschede, the Netherlands, killing 23 people and injuring nearly a thousand. Throughout the 1990s, Dutch biopolitical safety campaigns made the individual dangers of fireworks highly visible: the misused firework, the mutilated hand, the personal consequence. The collective risk of a depot in a residential area, by contra

The construction and real estate sector is a major contributor to global carbon emissions and climate change. Ventilation systems, although essential for maintaining indoor air quality and occupant health, account for a significant share of building operational emissions. In HVAC systems, duct layouts significantly influence ventilation impacts through both the embodied carbon from material produc

The application of machine learning in architecture has raised important concerns regarding creativity, authorship, and the usability of AI-generated outputs. An existing limitation is that many generative workflows produce visually compelling images but they remain as visual residue. They may demonstrate rich architectural qualities, but they are detached from the design workflow. This thesis exp

Fennoscandian permafrost peatlands and palsa mires have exhibited pronounced thawing over recent decades, resulting in increased active layer thickness (ALT) and thermokarst formation. Consequently, open water areas have expanded in the well-studied palsa mire Stordalen, located in northernmost Sweden. However, long-term quantifications of open water dynamics remain limited and the relationship be

The continued scaling of complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) technology has fundamentally altered the relationship between register-transfer level (RTL) design and physical implementation in application-specific integrated circuits. The traditional sequential treatment of these two activities is no longer adequate for meeting the power, performance, and area targets of modern system-on-

This thesis investigates the possibility of dark matter arising from a confining dark SU(N) Yang-Mills sector with N=3,4,5. First, standard results from the established single-scalar-glueball framework are reviewed and numerically reproduced in order to follow the cosmological evolution through the confinement phase transition and extract the relic abundance. The results reproduce the expected qua

Grated cheese is a convenient and ready-to-use food product. However, due to its increased surface area, grated cheese is susceptible to spoilage. This master’s thesis aimed to improve the understanding of growth patterns of spoilage microorganisms in relation to intrinsic factors in both grated mozzarella and grated hard cheese. Cultivation of yeast and lactic acid bacteria, using pour plating- a

As population ageing deepens and rural-urban migration continues, the practice of ageing in place in rural China is facing new housing challenges. Many older people prefer to continue living in familiar villages, but the out-migration of adult children has made family care less stable. Institutional care can provide structured support, but it does not always fit their living habits or emotional ne
