Provision of freshwater to urban residents remains a significant global challenge. A challenge whose impendent success in many regions is further threatened by climate change and urbanization projections, subsequently increasing the pressure on urban water supply. Employing an intersectional lens, this case study explores household implications of and responses to water shortage in Gaborone, the c
We have constructed a novel neural network architecture called CWE-LSTM (concatenated word-emoji bidirectional long short-term memory) for classify- ing emotions in Twitter conversations. The architecture is based on a combina- tion of word and emoji embeddings with domain specificity in Twitter data. Its performance is compared to a current state of the art natural language process- ing model fro
This study aims to discourage error-prone intuitive thinking in decision-making for proactive adaptation to disaster risk and climate change and to encourage the realisation of well-founded proactive adaptation measures by developing a decision support tool for Swedish municipal preparedness coordinators. Using a design research methodology, the researchers interviewed preparedness coordinators fr
This thesis examines the development Forest Green Rovers has undergone since their current owner and Chairman joined the club. With a clear vision and agenda, the aim was to over time transform the club into something greater than just sporting achievements. For nearly fifteen years, the club's management has been dedicated to embedding sustainability in all aspects of the club's operation
To promote sustainable manufacturing and lower industrial emissions, GE HealthCare is constantly assessing new approaches to improve their production processes. As a global manufacturer of contrast media, their potential for positive societal impact is significant. In addition to sustainability, a pharmaceutical production process is required to deliver products of high purity. This means that the
Next-generation sequencing (NGS) has transformed the study of antibody repertoires by enabling high-throughput, in-depth analysis of immune diversity and antigen-driven selection. When paired with in vitro display technologies, NGS offers unparalleled resolution in characterizing antibody libraries, but also presents substantial computational challenges due to the highly variable nature of antibod
The Million Homes Programme, launched in Sweden during the 1960s, resulted in the construction of over one million homes to address a national housing shortage. A majority of the houses consist of linear block buildings, many of which now require renovation. Moreover, climate change and increasing energy demands have put pressure on the building sector to reduce emissions and improve energy perfor
Fire safety design for complex buildings often relies on the Performance-based Design approach which assesses the margin of safety by comparing Available Safe Egress Time with Required Safe Egress Time. However, most current modelling tools often operate independently or at most with one-way coupling. This potentially reduces the accuracy of fire safety assessments by failing to capture dynamic in
This thesis was developed in partnership with SCM Group, a leading Italian manufacturer of material-cutting machinery operating an extensive international network of production sites and clients. Because of the magnitude of its operations, SCM’s technical support teams manage a large volume of support tickets-records submitted by clients on a daily bases: structured reports documenting machine fai
Metasurfaces are two-dimensional arrays of sub-wavelength structures often arranged in a periodic lattice. During recent years, metasurfaces have emerged as one of the most promising platforms to shape electromagnetic waves using compact devices, exhibiting extraordinary control over the light amplitude, polarization and phase. Starting with metallic materials, metasurface research has shifted tow
The rapid expansion of the plant-based beverage sector has increased the demand for high-performance, barista-grade oat drinks that are capable of withstanding the thermal and acidic stresses of coffee applications. This master’s thesis, conducted in collaboration with Cerealiq AB, evaluates the efficacy of six specific enzymatic treatments in modifying the structural and physical properties of oa
Peptide therapeutics offer advantages in specificity and affinity, yet the potential propensity to self-associate and aggregate poses a challenge for the development of stable oral formulations. This master’s thesis evaluates the utility of the fluorescent dye Thioflavin T as a structural probe to monitor the aggregation of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists, specifically Liraglutide and Se
Bioenergy is the largest energy source in the Swedish energy system, where it consists mainly of domestic forest-based biomass in the form of residues and by-products. Today, there is a general discussion about the need for changes in national forest management policies and new European Union (EU) directives and regulations for forestry and bioenergy to better fulfil biodiversity and climate targe
Reliable ankle torque measurements are important in rehabilitation, where strength assessments are used to evaluate recovery and guide treatment. Isokinetic dynamometers, such as the Biodex system, are commonly used to provide controlled measurements of joint torque. However, these measurements rely on the ankle being held in a stable and reproducible position. Mechanical play in the ankle-attachm
This thesis examines how young people in Finland make sense of profit-oriented drug selling and construct drug dealer identities. Drug use and related harms have increased globally in recent years. In Finland, an increase in minors selling drugs for financial profit has been noticed by the police and a non-governmental youth work organization Children of the Station. The aim of this thesis is to e
