The Hummeln structure is a relatively recently confirmed impact structure located in the northeastern part of the province of Småland in Sweden (57.37347°N 16.25084°Ö). Due to its relatively recent confirmation, detailed petrographic studies regarding shock metamorphism and shock metamorphic features in the Hummeln-1 drill core are lacking. The drill core is the only drill core from the structure Det är ett allmänt känt faktum att det som orsakade det senaste massutdöendet och därmed slutet på dinosauriernas era var ett meteoritnedslag. Mindre känt är kanske det faktum att meteoritnedslag faktiskt är ganska vanligt förekommande sett ur ett geologiskt perspektiv. Lyckligtvis är konsekvensen av dessa väldigt sällan ett massutdöende, men meteoriter kan ha en stor påverkan trots det. Ett exemp

Denna studie presenterar resultaten från den första detaljerade strukturanalysen av glaciotektoniska strukturer på de norra klippexponeringarna på Ven tillsammans med den första sammanhängande tolkningen av öns glaciotektoniska utveckling. Dessutom presenterar studien resultaten av den första geomorfologiska kartläggningen av land former på Ven. Det primära syftet med denna studie var att fylla kuThis study presents the results from the first detailed structural analysis of glaciotectonic structures of the northern cliff exposures on Ven alongside the first coherent interpretation of the glaciotectonic evolution of the island. Additionally, the study presents the findings of the first geomorphological mapping of surface features on Ven. The primary objective of this study was to fill gaps

This thesis investigates the development of poor relief in rural Sweden through a case study of Fränninge parish from 1799 to 1865, a period marked by agricultural enclosures and legal reforms. Using detailed parish poor fund accounts, the study traces changes in welfare provision in a period of socioeconomic transformation and population growth. The analysis reveals a significant expansion of poo

Degrowth identifies capitalist colonial appropriation of the Global North as the driver for global environmental and social crises, calling for a new economy centred around human needs. Degrowth also proposes a societal transformation that requires a redefinition of human-nature relations. Industrial agriculture, dominated by profit-oriented multinationals, contributes to and intensifies existing

Society is undergoing a great transformation with regard to the climate crisis, where electrification plays a crucial role in decarbonizing. To meet the future energy demand, improving power grid utilization is essential. This thesis develops standardized methods to evaluate and identify key parameters in terms of impact and branch loading, and to determine the probability of load flow scenarios u

I takt med att klimatförändringarna blir en allt mer akut fråga ökar efterfrågan på hållbara transportlösningar, särskilt i glesbygdsområden där alternativen ofta är begränsade. Denna uppsats undersöker potentialen för små eldrivna tåg – i storlek liknande bussar och drivna antingen av batterier eller bränsleceller – för användning på icke-elektrifierade järnvägslinjer på ett kostnadseffektivtThis thesis investigates the cost efficiency of two drivetrain configurations—Battery Only and Hydrogen-Battery—for use in mini-trains operating on non-electrified rural railways. The study focuses solely on drivetrain-related components, in cluding onboard energy storage, traction systems, and associated infrastructure such as charging stations and hydrogen refueling facilities. A comprehensive l

This thesis examines customer satisfaction within IKEA's support services in Sweden and Great Britain by analyzing customer feedback data. It explores the intersection of anthropology and computational social science, contributing to the growing field of computational anthropology. The study identifies recurring themes in customer comments by employing a mixed-methods approach that combines co

Betsockerprocessen är en energiintensiv process där ångdriven indunstning används för att avlägsna stora mängder vatten från den upprenade tunnsaften, som innehåller det från betorna extraherade sockret. I takt med industrins önskade fokus på energieffektivisering har membranteknologier för förkoncentrering av tunnsaften fått ett ökat intresse. Trots lovande resultat i ett begränsat antal försök åThe beet sugar process is an energy intensive process relying on steam evaporation to remove large amounts of water from the purified thin juice containing the sugar extracted from the beets. As the industry seeks greater energy efficiency, membrane technology for pre-concentration of thin juice has attracted interest. Limited trials have shown promise but fouling, sugar losses or high osmotic pre

Approximately 80% of agricultural land in the world is comprised of annual crops which have a life span of only one year. Research has shown that these crops are unsustainable because of these short life spans. Soil erosion, nutrient leaching, and losses of soil carbon are just a few problems caused by annual monocultures. Additionally, with the changing climate, these cropping methods are both vu

The study shows that while auditors rely on their financial audit expertise, the CSRD introduces new complexities requiring interdisciplinary knowledge and enhanced social support structures. Despite the high level of detail and comprehensiveness in the CSRD provisions, applying the directive in practice demands auditors to engage in subjective interpretive work at both the client and regulatory l

This thesis examines how investor nationality influences market reactions in Seasoned Equity Offerings (SEOs). Using a sample of 146 SEOs from 106 unique firms between 2005 and 2024, we analyze whether foreign investor versus domestic investor participation systematically affects market reactions. Foreign-backed SEOs are initially found to generate less negative abnormal returns than domestic offe

Biologisk mångfald är ett begrepp som alla känner till och dess betydelse. Det påverkar oss alla på alla möjliga sätt och vi kan enkelt påverka det genom att förändra de minsta sakerna i naturen. Flera arter är extremt känsliga för förändringar och med en mindre förändring i sin miljö försvinner de. Rödlistade arter är arter som är sårbara, orkidé är en art som alla typer är rödlistade i Sverige. The aim of this literature study was to understand the different perspectives of actors within forestry and conservation in terms of the species goodyera repens, and its debate.This study focuses on the red-listed orchid G. repens. A comparation of different actors was done, and it can be seen that the opinions of the actors’ are very different from each other. In summary, the actors who were more

E-scooter sharing systems (ESS) have rapidly gained popularity since their introduction in the U.S. in 2017, promoting sustainable urban mobility and offering a new solution to transport systems challenges. However, research on ESS usage in relation to the built environment, particularly in European contexts, is limited, and comparative studies between urban areas of different sizes are not readil

Family oriented design has long been championed by sprawling suburbs and new town developments. Denser urban places have in most cases not been designed to attract or keep families as inhabitants, instead focusing on other qualities and user-groups. This has consequently led to a family flight from urban settings to monofunctional family oriented suburbs, in many chases exhilarating car-depencany

Problem Statement: Company Pie is planning for a new centralised distribution centre, as part of a reorganisation of their distribution network. This entails consolidating volumes from several existing facilities, and another company named Company Rho, when setting up a distribution centre configuration. Company Pie wants a second set of eyes to create a configuration, including operations, and de

Fraud is a crime that causes severe economic damage, and crime rates are rising because of technological advancements. There is a research gap regarding how fraud crime prevention is organised and which actors are important for it. This thesis aimed to explore how the rising occurrence of cyber fraud is addressed on a societal level, using the civil, banking, governmental, and business sectors. It
