In light of the shortcomings of dominant recycling strategies in dealing with the plastic crisis, the circularity strategy of reuse is receiving increasing attention. Due to its goal of extending product lifespans, reuse is often seen as a more progressive strategy that aims to prevent waste rather than diverting it. Investigating the emerging phenomenon of reuse organizations in a multiple-case s

This research examines how consideration of place attachment and community values can inform the development and implementation of fair and equitable climate change adaptation (CCA) practices in the Australian local government context. The research adopts a qualitative approach, using semi-structured interviews with expert interviewees and reflective thematic analysis to answer three research ques

Low tax revenues in many African countries are hindering sustained economic development and aid could have an inhibiting effect on the development of fiscal capacity. This paper will use newly published high-quality data on tax revenues to dive deeper into the effects of aid on hard-to-collect taxes in Africa between 1960-2015. Previous aid literature has mostly focused on short-term effects on re

In the context of China’s concerning decline in fertility rates and the widespread normalization of the ‘996’ overtime culture, the connection between overtime work and fertility assumes considerable importance. This research is firmly grounded in the theoretical framework of the Theory of Planned Behavior (Ajzen, 1991), which investigates the complex relationship between overtime work and fertili

Studying dissolution of oral drug substances is crucial throughout the drug development process. Current methods are time consuming and require large quantities of both the drug and dissolution media. Thus, exploring new methods is highly desirable. UV imaging, an analytical technique based on real-time absorbance measurements, can be used in early drug discovery to study drug dissolution and has

Transylvania’s countryside, characterized by a mostly agrarian society with a rich multicultural heritage is being threatened by Romania’s tendencies of chaotic modernization and rapid urbanization. This research aims to find a viable solution for sustaining the cultural, natural, and social environment in rural Transylvania, by analysing the potential of tourism development. Integrated Rural Tour

Den digitala omställningen har ökat genom åren och har fungerat till en fördel för företag och organisationer generellt. Hastigheten på transformationstillväxten har bibehållits i nutid, vilket har resulterat i att mjukvarusystem utvecklas kontinuerligt. Som en naturlig effekt av detta fenomen, bör aktuella företag alltid ligga i framkant för att förbli konkurrenskraftiga. Studier har visat att pr

Delivering essential services to burgeoning peri-urban cities in the Sub-Sahara will only become an increasing challenge, as the population in this region is expected to double by 2050. Finding effective governance arrangements, institutional settings and building participatory arenas that give a greater voice to citizens and foster greater responsiveness from democratic authorities is a delicate

In this study, data of the generation of recyclable wastes from the EU member states, and possible explaining factors for describing this generation, are examined through a combination of Probabilistic Principal Component Analysis (PPCA) and multivariate regression analysis. The purpose is to identify some of the biggest contributors to the generation of recyclable wastes, and, based on these cont

Cancer is a widespread and commonly fatal disease in constant need of new treatments. Traditionally, new pharmaceuticals have been tested in 2D models. This is not ideal, as 2D environments do not reflect the in vivo milieu of the cells. Instead, it has been increasingly suggested to implement 3D models, which are thought to be more predictive of in vivo responses to treatment. It has been shown t

Background: environmental impact from health care contribute to a substantial part of the public sector’s consumption based emission of greenhouse gases in Sweden. An issue, recognized by the health care sector itself, is the increasing use of single-use products. Objective: to compare environmental impact and cost differences between a single-use, ResposableTM, and mixed setup of the surgical in

Freevalve AB develops camless valvetrains for internal combustion engines using pneumatic and hydraulic systems. An air compressor is used to generate pressure in the pneumatic system. To further increase efficiency of the Freevalve system, a new compressor tailored to its purpose, is being developed in house. This thesis is part of the development of this compressor, which is a reciprocating pis

The number of fixed-installation resource-constrained devices, such as Internet of Things devices, has been growing rapidly in the past years. One challenge of accommodating these large numbers of connected devices is the need to power them all. In this thesis, we investigate ways to reduce the power consumption of the door controller in an existing physical access control system, without compromi

The aim with this Master’s Thesis work was to conduct research about different available authenticators, as well as implementing a multi-factor authenticator into the currently used login-application. The research included biometric authentication technologies, and investigation of how to implement these to create a highly secure and customizable multi-factor authentication for My Axis-accounts fo

A growing environmental issue today is the amount plastic pollution in the ocean. To investigate how it might affect marine life, an important aspect is to study how plastics are transported by ocean currents and where it ends up. This can be done by use of Lagrangian simulation of plastic particles in computer ocean models. To improve the quality of the output from such simulations the number of

This Master's thesis in Biomedical Engineering investigates the performance and generalizability of linear regression models in context of prosthesis control for short residual limb amputees. This thesis uses intramuscular electromyography data, and a regression and emplys a regression technique called Elastic Net Regression - a technique that combines L1 and L2-regularization - to predict 1-D
