With the release of Bluetooth Core Specification 6.0 in September 2024, Bluetooth Channel Sounding has attracted significant attention for high-accuracy indoor positioning applications. This thesis focuses on the evaluation and improvement of Bluetooth Channel Sounding techniques under both single-antenna and dual-antenna configurations. In the single-antenna setup, distance estimation is obtained
Despite relatively high levels of basic water service coverage and constitutional recognition of water as a human right, Ecuador continues to face major challenges in safely managed water, wastewater treatment, and gastrointestinal disease burden. This thesis examines whether improvements in municipal water governance are associated with reductions in gastrointestinal hospitalization rates across
Sustainable development requires balancing ecological, social, and economic dimensions. In municipalities, sustainability is implemented by, among others, environmental and climate strategists, whose work is naturally shaped by goal conflicts. Studying these conflicts through a Swedish municipal lens is necessary as there is currently a lack of Swedish empirical research focusing specifically on p
Denna kandidatuppsats undersöker hur KPI:er (Key Performance Indicators) uppfattas och används inom svensk farmaceutisk verksamhet. I takt med att prestationsmätning fått en allt större betydelse inom samhällskritiska verksamheter har KPI:er blivit centrala verktyg för styrning, uppföljning och kvalitetssäkring. Tidigare forskning har främst fokuserat på KPI:ers funktion som styrinstrument och der
When greenhouse gas emissions in the building sector are considered, the focus is often on new construction. However, this is not the whole picture. Existing commercial buildings, such as office buildings, also go through several changes during their lifetime, and these changes can have a relevant climate impact. In office buildings, such changes are often called tenant adaptations, where the inte
Urban flooding is an increasing challenge in Gothenburg, where flood risk is influenced by river discharge, elevated sea levels and hydraulic regulation. The river Mölndalsån contributes to this risk as it flows through urban areas before discharging into Göta älv. Future climate change may further increase the risk through rising sea levels and more intense precipitation. This thesis investigate
This thesis explores cultural memory and collective identity in trip-hop music. First, I question what it was about Bristol’s history and demography that created such a highly interesting and unusual music scene. To examine how music carries cultural memory, an investigation of significant Bristol artists like Massive Attack and Tricky is undertaken. Expanding the scope, I compare these genres to
This master’s thesis explores the design of a construction toy that supports developmental play for children aged seven to ten years. The project is motivated by the observation that increasing digitalization and highly stimulating environments are changing the way children play, potentially reducing opportunities for tactile, open-ended, and self-directed play experiences that contribute to healt

Senaste åren har hot mot politiker aktualiserats i samhällsdebatten. Denna studie syftar till att skapa förståelse för hur det politiska offerskapet konstrueras samt vilken funktion det fyller i politiken och samhällsdebatten. Studien utförs genom en kvalitativ diskursanalys av riksdagspolitikers uttalanden om sin egen eller andra politikers utsatthet. Det empiriska materialet analyseras med fokus
Denna kandidatuppsats undersöker hur spelifierad miljödesign och valbara belöningar kan implementeras i en pedagogisk digital applikation för förskolebarn i syfte att öka motivation och engagemang. Utgångspunkten är det digitala lärverktyget Magiska Trädgården, där barn löser matematiska uppgifter för att bygga en digital trädgård. Syftet är att ta fram designkrav och en prototyp som främjar barne
As rural-urban migration persists and population concentrates into urban areas, rural municipalities are increasingly struggling with population decline. Using longitudinal data from Statistics Finland, this thesis aims to investigate what municipal characteristics have contributed to net migration rates in 292 Finnish municipalities between 1995 and 2024 by conducting year fixed effects and two-w
Traditionally, luxury brands have communicated the feeling of heritage through physical anchors, such as the atmosphere of entering a luxury store, or through the smell of leather. However, the rise of Instagram has created a structural tension. Heritage depends on slowness, continuity and historical depth, while Instagram is a fast-paced environment built for speed where these physical anchors ar
Causality is a fundamental requirement for physical consistency in many-body approximations. In the context of Green's functions, causality requires a positive spectral function and analyticity in the upper half of the complex-frequency plane. These properties are not guaranteed by approximate methods, and formal proofs of causality for the underlying approximation schemes are often difficult
The loss of biodiversity is one of today's most urgent environmental challenges, while the construction sector is recognized as one of the industries with the greatest impact on ecosystems and biodiversity. At the same time biodiversity has received less attention in corporate sustainability reporting compared to issues such as climate impact and carbon emissions. With the introduction of the
This master thesis was performed in collaboration with NP Innovation. The purpose of this project was to develop a new inlet channel and two adapters for a water filter used in fish farming. Two different sizes of filters are included in the company's product portfolio. For both filters there is one inlet channel each in a corresponding size. One inlet channel consist of an adapter welded to t
Can a country created from three different territories achieve economic integration within two decades? The results of this paper, examining the domestic market integration in interwar Poland, indicate that, with some caveats, the feat is possible. Using a new dataset with unprecedented detail, price dispersion dynamics, the importance of old borders, and the impact of railway expansion on price g
