Alfa Laval has a wide product range for plate heat exchangers that can be applied in most industries. The constant development of new and old heat exchangers drive the need for new and efficient methods that can reliably be used in the development process. In this thesis, a new turbulence model within a computational fluid dynamics-program has been tested and evaluated for one of Alfa Lavals comme
The European Union (EU) has faced numerous severe crises during the 21st century. Rather than standing united and finding joint solutions, the intergovernmental negotiations have often revolved around furthering member state preferences, and maximising individual outcomes. Surprisingly, when Russia invaded Ukraine, in the spring of 2022, the EU managed to field a relatively successful and united r
In this qualitative study, interpretive research will be conducted in order to examine subjective experiences of Middle Eastern immigrants in Sweden as well as their perception of how six selected policies and programs affect their sense of belonging and identity. Individual in-depth interviews were conducted to obtain data for this study. Specifically, in this study, the following policies and pr
As computer vision becomes widely adopted, more applications demand a large effective field of view, something which is aptly accommodated by fisheye cameras. Autonomous driving vehicles, for example, require a full panorama view of their environment in order to navigate effectively. This requirement could be satisfied with as few as four fisheye cameras, one on each side of the car. However, due
Aortic valvular disease is a severe ailment that causes great suffering and many deaths worldwide. The exponentially increasing prevalence of the disease has accelerated the demand of a new functioning valve prosthesis. A new approach is to decellularize homograft heart valves, which has demonstrated promising results in clinical trials. The Lung Bioengineering and Regeneration Lab in Lund has dev
The main theme of this project is inventory control with stochastic demand. In this thesis, we consider a two-echelon inventory system that consists of one central warehouse and N retail stores. Customer demands at the retailers follow independent Poisson demand processes and each customer only demands one unit. Customer demands which are not satisfied directly from stock on hand are assumed to ba
Idag sker majoriteten av alla kommersiella fastighetstransaktioner via bolag. Detta sker genom att först låta paketera fastigheterna i bolag, för att sedan avyttra aktierna i bolagen där fastigheterna ingår. Drivkraften bakom förvärvsmetoden är sänkta transaktionskostnader, främst genom skattebesparingar. Detta innebär att allt färre transaktioner sker på traditionellt vis, det vill säga som fast The trend of increasing commercial real estate transactions via companies has a negative impact on the process of estimating the taxable values. This due to the sharp decrease of comparison material for our Swedish authorities. Real estate transactions via companies also enable information about the transaction to be kept secret from outside parties. The study aims to show how various parties in t
Purpose: To examine how core values can be concretely transformed in the physical stores in order to help with the creation of favorable brand associations and the shaping of the brand image. Methodology: The paper combines both primary and secondary data, with a specific focus on two brands as case studies: Lush and Kiehl's. Primary data was collected through a questionnaire that includes bo
The steel industry is with its high emissions an important sector to transform from fossil-fueled to fossil-free. In recent years, the technology development has accelerated quickly regarding iron ore reduction using hydrogen produced from electrolysis within the EL-DRP-EAF steel production route. However, it is problematic that the energy supply for the majority of the efforts made within the gre

Transport planning has been in favour of and prioritised motorised transport for almost a century. During this time, cars have been given street space at the expense of more sustainable transport modes. The auto-normative paradigm thus created a spatial imbalance, an injustice, in the amount of space that are devoted to the different transport modes. The main objective of this thesis is to analyse
Ska hyvling ses som omreglering av anställningsvillkoren eller som en omplacering enligt anställningsskyddslagen? Detta kan beskrivas som en process i två steg där omreglering och omplacering egentligen inte bör jämföras då de har olika rättsliga utgångar. Det är främst en avtalsrättslig fråga men som är av stor betydelse i ett arbetsrättsligt perspektiv där det finns en komplexitet i hur omreglerPlaning the employment can partly be seen as re-regulation of the employment terms or as a relocation according to the Employment Protection Act. It is primarily a contractual issue but which is of great importance in a labor law perspective where there is a complexity in how the re-regulation should actually be handled where legal cases and doctrine may provide guidance. The redeployment in the E
Emotion regulation and emotional work can have both positive and negative effects. Previous studies have suggested that emotion regulation is taught through early life socialization, and that this socialization may be gendered. If this were the case, we learn to regulate our emotions differently, and for some to, for instance, be socialized into suppressing their emotions may lead to negative cons
Recently, the consumer interest and revenue from domestic aide robots have been rapidly increasing. A report from 2018 estimates that the global revenue from this sector will rise from $6.4 billion to nearly $23 billion by 2022, an increase by 250%. This thesis covers a concept development process defining a multi-purpose, autonomous household robot. The focus user group is consumers, and it is ai
The Amazon has always been a strategic region because of its rich variety in natural resources. Its global interest is spreading across levels and scales, influenced by the increasing demand for fossil fuels and biodiesel and the threat of climate change. Neoliberal practices continue privatizing and exploiting the Amazon´s resources regardless the Indigenous communities’ interests. These communit
Service user involvement has become an important part of social work in Sweden. Social services in Helsingborg has taken a step further in involving service users by including them in the recruitment process of some of their own staff members. Few studies regarding this particular phenomenon has been found thus the need of exploring it further. The aim of this thesis is to explore social workers o
The purpose of this thesis is to examine how the European Union through its cultural program “Creative Europe” is constructing and promoting a transnational European identity. In the context of humanities and European Studies this can be seen as relevant in the sense it is the study of man as a cultural being, as well as it is stated in Merriam-Webster dictionary “humanities plural : the branches
The aim of this thesis was to investigate how packages, both primary and secondary, behave under transportation. Before a full analysis of a pallet distribution can be fully understood the understanding of the separate packages is required. This thesis contributes with great knowledge and understanding of how a primary and secondary package behaves during top load compression. Tetra Pak is a globa
Agile working methods gain in popularity among practitioners within the IT (Information Technology) industry and beyond, as a result of the revival of the self-organizing team as a mode for organizing work in contemporary organizations. The talk of DevOps, as an agile method which merges opposite organizational logics, IT Development (Dev) and IT Operations (Ops), into a self-organizing team, has
