The construction industry is a very traditional sector. The construction supply chain is very complex and fragmented since every project is site-based and unique. The distinctive nature of the construction industry is its heavy reliance on subcontracting. A common practice in the industry is to organize projects with a tier of subcontractors working for a main contractor. Since it is a knowledge-i
As Climate Change increases the frequency and severity of wildfires in British Columbia, communities at the Wildland Urban Interface face escalating risks. This thesis explores the challenges and opportunities of community engagement in wildfire management in the city of Kamloops, one of the most fire-prone urban areas in British Columbia. Employing a single-case study design, the research is base
Denna uppsats undersöker hur det svenska genomförandet av de nya gränsförfarandena, som del av EU:s nya migrations- och asylpakt, kan påverka asylsökandes rätt till frihet under artikel 5 i Europakonventionen. Fokus ligger på screeningförfarandet, asylgränsförfarandet och gränsförfarandet för återvändande, vilka tillsammans skapar en ny inresefas vid ankomst till Unionen. Pakten bygger på den rättThis thesis examines how the Swedish implementation of the new border procedures, as part of the new EU Pact on Migration and Asylum, may affect asylum seekers’ right to liberty under Article 5 of the European Convention on Human Rights. The focus is on the screening procedure, the asylum border procedure and the return border procedure, which together create a new pre-entry phase when arriving to
Stålindustrin står för ungefär 7-8% av världens växthusgasutsläpp, och fordonsindustrin är en av dess viktigaste kunder. Fordonstillverkare som Volvo, Mercedes och Scania möter idag hårdare krav på att minska utsläppen i sina försörjningskedjor, genom regelverk i EU som förändras snabbt och ett växande tryck att ansvara för sina koldioxidavtryck. I detta sammanhang har grönt stål blivit en strategThe steel sector accounts for approximately 7-8% of global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, and the automotive industry stands for a large part of its customer base. As Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs), such as Volvo, Mercedes and Scania etc., face tightening Scope 3 emission targets, evolving EU regulatory frameworks, and growing pressure to decarbonise their supply chains, the question of
Pharmaceutical manufacturing of parenteral injections must be fine-tuned to yield a stable API through efficient production methods. Assessing a products processability is essential to ensure consistent manufacturing and safe drug administration, of which powder flowability and dissolution both have a direct impact. Spray drying is a particle engineering technique to modify these parameters, howev
In this episode, Prof. Lisa Vanhala discusses the key findings of her book Governing the End: The Making of Climate Change Loss and Damage, which untangles the complex relationship between deteriorating environmental conditions, high politics, and everyday diplomatic practices in climate governance.
In this episode, Professor Dan Bodansky joins us to discuss the second edition of his book The Art and Craft of International Environmental Law and provides insights into the opportunities and challenges ahead for this field of law.
Between 2024 and 2026, AI providers launched dedicated agent products and presented them as tools that can plan, decide and carry out marketing tasks with greater independence than earlier generative AI. On LinkedIn, Swedish marketing executives and industry opinion leaders produce a parallel discourse that reaches the same professional audience. This study examines how the relationship between th
Perceived stigmatization places a large psychosocial burden on patients with some skin conditions. Little is known about the experience of stigmatization across a wide range of skin diseases. This observational cross-sectional study aimed to quantify perceived stigmatization and identify its predictors among patients with a broad spectrum of skin diseases across 17 European countries. Self-report
This study examines how consumers make sense of AI-generated fashion advertising and how this shapes brand-consumer relationships. Using a qualitative and interpretive approach, this study draws on twelve semi-structured interviews with students at Lund University School of Economics and Management (LUSEM). The analysis is informed by Consumer–Brand Relationship theory (Fournier, 1998), Social Pre
Introduction: This study focuses on the quantitative analysis of minerals in gummy supplements Background: The content of minerals in gummy supplements can be challenging to measure due to the complex organic matrix that includes, among other ingredients, sugar, glucose syrup, and pectin. Aim(s): The aim of this research project was to validate a method for quantifying Zn, Mg, and Fe in gummy sup
Automated sorption balances are widely used for characterizing the interaction of water vapor with hygroscopic materials. This paper is part of an interlaboratory study investigating the stability and performance of automated sorption balances. A previous paper in this study investigated the mass, temperature, and relative humidity (RH) stability of automated sorption balances by looking at the ma
Aim: To explore the possibility of reducing the diagnostic burden in children with prenatally detected unilateral ureteropelvic junction obstruction. Methods: Children with unilateral ureteropelvic junction obstruction (2012–2020) were identified from a prenatal hydronephrosis registry. The frequency of adverse events, predictors for event-free follow-up beyond 1 year of age, and examination burde
Collective properties at low and high spin for nuclei with Z ≥ 64 and N ≥ 82 are calculated on the basis o f deformed single-particle potentials. The calculations are confronted with the available experimental data like low-lying octupole bands, rotational bands of transitional nuclei with N ≥ 90 and evidence for collectivity in high-spin single-particle spectra. In the latter collective triaxiali
This paper reports on lessons learned during the design of the vessels, including the risk assessments; during the actual build/retrofit; and during the vessels’ operation. The focus is on the gained knowledge, to serve as proofs of concept and as a starting point for other methanol vessel conversions.
Att ersätta bilresor med cykelresor har många fördelar, både ur ett individ- och samhällsperspektiv, t.ex. bättre hälsa genom ökad fysisk aktivitet, lägre nivåer av föroreningar och trängsel. Det finns dock vissa potentiella problem med en sådan förändring. Cyklister löper exempelvis högre risk för trafikolyckor per fordonskilometer än bilförare. Denna risk måste minimeras för en optimal övergång A shift in modal share from car driving to cycling has many benefits, bothfrom individual- and societal perspectives, e.g., better health from anincrease in physical activity, lower levels of pollution and congestion.However, there are also some potential problems with such a shift. Cyclistshave a higher risk of traffic incidents per travelled kilometre than cardrivers. This risk needs to be minim
The total ozone reduction in the Arctic during the winters of 1993/94 acid 1994/95 has been evaluated using the ground-based total ozone measurements of five SAOZ spectrometers distributed in the Arctic and from number density profiles of a balloon-borne version of the instrument. The ozone change resulting from transport has been removed using a 3D Chemistry Transport Model (CTM) run without chem
This thesis aims to retrace the effects of a traditional local governance institution on contemporary development in Indonesia. In Indonesia, community decisions are either taken by means of consensus building among the citizens (in a democratic way) or by the local elite or village head (which could be characterized as oligarchic). Using data on the community level from the Indonesian Family Life
Antennae, the primary sensory organs of insects, contain numerous sensilla responsible for detecting chemical and physical stimuli essential for host location, communication, and orientation. Although the antennal sensilla of many insect groups—including Gelechiidae—have been well characterized, no such descriptions exist for Anacampsis phytomiella (Busck, 1914), a pest that exclusively infests ca
