Author: Linn Adolfsson & Emma Ljungsten Title: Roller och förväntningar – En kvalitativ studie om förskollärares resonemang kring deras anmälningsskyldighet Supervisor: Mikael Sandgren In Sweden there are many children who are in need of help from the social services. For the social service to be able to do their job, and help the children and their family, they need people to notify them abo

Daylight has beneficial psychological and health effects that range from enhanced alertness, mood improvements, increased productivity, and well-being. Recently, the interest in non-visual (also called biological) effect of light has increased substantially. Yet, a limited number of research has investigated the non-visual effects of light in Nordic climates. The aim of this thesis is to assess th

Människor spenderar mycket tid inomhus, närmre 90 % av sin livstid. För att erhålla ett bra inneklimat med god luftkvalité krävs att byggnader ventileras. Därför utrustas de ofta med mekaniska ventilationssystem. Trots detta är SBS (Sick Building Syndrome) ett allvarligt problem. Orsaken till att vissa byggnader blir ”sjuka” tros bero på bland annat dålig ventilation. För att avgöra om ett ventilaPeople spend a lot of time indoors, closer to 90% of their lifetime. To obtain a good indoor climate with good air quality buildings need to be ventilated. Therefore, they are often equipped with mechanical ventilation systems. Nevertheless, SBS (Sick Building Syndrome) is a serious problem. The reason that some buildings become "sick" is believed to be due to, among other things, poor v

Abstract Author(s): Robert Hildingsson Title: When zero-vision is no longer valid. A study in Social Work on the experiences of the Substitution treatment. Supervisor: Annika Capelán Köhler Assessor: TBA The purpose of the study was to shed some light on the national drug policy of “zero-vision” – that is, the Swedish governmental no-drug policy – from the point of view of the participants of th

The information contained in the DNA (Deoxyribonucleic acid) of an organism that will finally be expressed, is first converted into a molecule called RNA (Ribonucleic acid). This is mainly composed of two types of sequences: the exons, carrying the information that will give rise to the formation of proteins and will be finally expressed in the organism, and the introns, which mainly include regul

Wildfires are increasing around the world and unlike building evacuations, the wildland urban interface (WUI) evacuations consider vehicle movement alongside the behaviour of wildfires. Tourists, as a diverse population, further complicate WUI evacuations due to factors such as language barriers, unfamiliarity with the area, varying levels of risk awareness, and the lack of access to vehicles. Nev

At the very core of this thesis is the motivation to better understand how the seemingly inherent connection between powerful social agents and judges is produced and reproduced. The thesis also seeks to contribute to the view that who judges matters. This is not only true for the identity of the institutions they comprise, but for the individuals they adjudicate on behalf of. As a result, there e

Som svar på det eskalerande hotet från klimatförändringar har koldioxidinfångning fått alltmer uppmärksamhet som en viktig teknik för att minska de globala koldioxidutsläppen. Stora forskningsinsatser fokuserar nu på att förbättra energieffektiviteten och tillgängligheten för dessa tekniker. Vid Institutionen för Kemiteknik vid Lunds Universitet, bedrivs forskning för att undersöka ett nytt absorpIn response to the escalating threat of climate change, carbon capture and storage have gained increasing attention as an important component in mitigating the global carbon dioxide emissions. Substantial research efforts have focused on enhancing the energy efficiency and availability of these technologies. At the Department of Chemical Engineering at Lund University, research is being carried ou

Inland port expansion requires immense investment costs often resulting in dredging and creating a new physical space for production and especially when handling Ultra Large Container Vessels (ULCVs). A floating container terminal (FCT) is an innovation that sets out to change the landscape within what is required to handle ULCV’s. The structure can be placed out at sea where no dredging is requir

Denna uppsats utreder vad samhällskontraktet är enligt Thomas Hobbes och John Lockes olika teorier. Den undersöker också möjligheten att lämna samhällskontraktet och om det idag finns exempel på grupper som försöker lämna det. Samhällskontraktsteorin är en rättsfilosofisk teori som försöker besvara frågan varför människor underkastar sig någon annan när de från början är fria människor. Hobbes ochThis essay examines what the social contract is according to Thomas Hobbes and John Locke’s different theories. It also examines the possibility of leaving the social contract and if there groups that are trying to leave the contract currently exist. The social contract theory is a legal philosophical theory that tries to answer the question of why humans submit to another when they originally are

Denna uppsats syftar till att jämföra och analysera äktenskaps- och sambolagstiftningen i svensk och dansk rätt. Uppsatsen främsta fokus är att undersöka om och i så fall hur de arvsrättsliga bestämmelserna för sambor i svensk rätt bör utvecklas för att vara i takt med sin tid, samt om detta kan göras i ljuset av den danska rätten. Materialet består huvudsakligen av lagar och förarbeten, samt sekuThis thesis aims to compare and analyse the legal systems regarding marriage and cohabitation in Swedish and Danish law. The primary focus of the thesis is to examine whether, and if so how, the inheritance provisions for cohabitants in Swedish law should be developed to keep pace with modern times, and whether this can be achieved in view of Danish law. The material primarily consists of statutes

Kiviks reningsverk som ligger på Skånes östkust drabbades av en storm 20:e oktober 2023 som nästan skadade reningsverket. Stormen visade på behovet att förstärka det befintliga kustskyddet för framtida stormar. I denna studie undersöks ifall vegetation kan användas för att skydda reningsverket. Växter som planteras vid kustlinjen kommer att dämpa våghöjden genom den friktionskraft som uppstår melScania has always been susceptible to damages caused by storms along its coasts which also holds true for the east coast in Scania where there is a great need of coastal protection for households and infrastructure alike. One example is the Kivik waste water treatment plant (WWTP) which is a newly built establishment with glass windows situated 30 meters from the east coast and provides its servic

En tredjedel av maten vi produceras slängs, mat som har tagit resurser och landyta i anspråk för att bli till. För att få bukt med det globala matsvinnet har FN satt ett hållbarhetsmål att halvera matsvinnet inom mathandel och hushåll till 2030. En faktor som kan kopplas till matsvinn är förpackningar. När de används korrekt förhindrar förpackningar matsvinn genom att ge skydd och ökad hållbarhet,Globally, about a third of the food produced is wasted. To address this issue, the United Nations has set a sustainability goal of reducing food waste in retail and household by 50\% to 2030. One factor that can be connected to the generation of food waste is packaging. When applied correctly, packaging prevents waste by providing protection and shelf life, but when packaging does not meet consume

Understanding the spatial and temporal dynamics of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) in boreal catchments is essential for improving water quality models and assessing carbon fluxes. This study applies the SWAT-C (Soil and Water Assessment Tool for Carbon) model to the Krycklan catchment in northern Sweden (67.9 km²), a well-instrumented boreal watershed characterized by forests, wetlands, and peatla

This work investigates single-sensor localization of acoustic emissions (AEs) along a wind turbine blade with supervised neural networks. We evaluate six architectures: a Dense MLP, a 1D CNN on time-domain inputs, two 2D CNNs on linear spectrograms (LinSpec) and mel-spectrograms (MelSpec), a CRNN (2D CNN + LSTM), and RepVGG (Mini RepVGG in simulation, RepVGG-A0 in experiments). Three experimental

Purpose: The virtualization of work has been high on the agenda during the new millennium, increasingly so after the pandemic. In this transition, co-working spaces (CWS) are often proposed to be the future-proof solution. The purpose of this paper is to explore how hybrid and virtual solutions are portrayed in co-working literature and whether they are shaping CWS in practice. Design/methodology/

Throughout the years, Mérida has been subject of an outstanding growth, economically, socially and spatially. Starting from being a major Mayan civilization city, to a colonial Spanish settlement that grew into being the capital of the peninsula, it has always gone through changes and innovations according to the necessities of its inhabitants. By being the most secure and safe city in Mexico to

Urban last mile delivery has become an increasingly relevant topic in this day and age, where the urban population is growing at the same time as climate change forces nations to limit emissions. The demand for fast and flexible deliveries in urban areas accelerates, which further escalates the need to optimize these last mile deliveries since they are the most polluting part of the supply chain.
