This thesis empirically investigates the relationship between financialization and real capital accumulation in Swedish non-financial corporations (NFCs) from 2000 to 2024. Utilizing a Two-Way Fixed Effects regression model on firm-level panel data from the Serrano database, the study isolates the impacts of financial engagement on real investments across different firm sizes. The findings reveal
The multitaper spectrogram, with arithmetic and geometric mean functions, and the ambiguity domain where evaluated on simulated data and real audio samples{. This was done} to determine if they can improve the results, of classification tasks, of the single-taper spectrogram when used as input to a convolutional neural network. The spectrogram used was differentiable to allow for the window length
This study explores how young women use sportswear to situate themselves within an aestheticized society shaped by social media, lifestyle ideals, and gendered expectations. Drawing on theories of Identity Performance and Gender Performativity, the study is based on 14 semi-structured interviews with women aged 20–26 living in Sweden. The findings show that sportswear functions as more than functi
This study explores how young adults at a Swedish university, born in Sweden with two foreign born parents, experience and understand their identity and sense of belonging in relation to ideas of Swedishness. The study also explores how these experiences influence their self-image, everyday experiences, and perceptions and exclusion, particularly within higher education and future working life. Th
The abatement of organic micropollutants during municipal wastewater ozonation is governed by competition from dissolved organic matter (DOM) and inorganic matrix constituents for ozone and hydroxyl radicals. Optimized ozone dosing therefore requires an understanding of the matrix-specific oxidant demand. Ultraviolet absorbance at 254 nm (UV254) is commonly used as a proxy for ozone-reactive aroma
This study aims to examine the relationship between political norms expressed in the Swedish national strategy (Regeringen Skr. 2016/17:10) and social norms of individuals, regarding men’s violence against women. Furthermore, it analyzes this relationship through the dimensions of Håkan Hydén’s norm model. By applying a mixed-methodology design, consisting of a quantitative survey and a qualitativ
Tropical peatlands in Central Kalimantan, Indonesia, represent important terrestrial carbon stores and support highly diverse tropical rainforest ecosystems with significant ecological, hydrological, and climatic functions. However, decades of drainage development, deforestation, plantation expansion, land-use change, and recurrent fire have contributed to extensive peatland degradation across the

Det moderna arbetslivet har under de senaste åren genomgått omfattande förändringar i riktning mot ökad flexibilitet, där distans- och hybridarbete blivit en etablerad del av hur arbete organiseras. Utvecklingen har inneburit att ett större ansvar för planering, strukturering och gränsdragning i arbetet lagts på individen. För unga anställda i början av sin karriär kan det innebära särskilda utmanIn recent years, working life has undergone significant changes towards greater flexibility, with remote and hybrid work becoming an established part of how work is organized. This development has placed greater responsibility for planning, structuring and managing work boundaries on the individual. For young employees at the beginning of their careers, this may present particular challenges, as t
Syfte: Syftet med studien är att skapa fördjupad förståelse för hur svenska fondförvaltare översätter SFDR:s klassificerings- och rapporteringskrav. Studien undersöker, med hjälp av standardiserings- och översättningsteori, hur det tolkningsutrymme som regelverket lämnar formar fondförvaltarnas praktiska hantering av regelverket. Frågeställning: Hur översätter svenska fondförvaltare SFDR:s klassif
This thesis investigates simulating X-ray computed tomography with two primary objectives: developing a virtual representation of an X-ray computed tomography scanner and generating labelled synthetic training data for deep learning-based fibre segmentation. A simulation pipeline to generate X-ray projections based on the Beer-Lambert law was developed using the open-source framework gVirtualXray.
This study examines how customary and statutory land governance systems intersect in shaping land governance outcomes in post-conflict Liberia, with specific focus on Gbarnga City, Bong County. Despite the Land Rights Act of 2018 formally recognizing customary land ownership, significant gaps persist between legal provision and experienced tenure security, particularly for women and customary comm
This project explores how a backpack chassis, or inter nal frame-stay, can provide high-utility campsite infrastructure without increasing the total weight carried by the user. While contemporary outdoor gear often forces a compromise between portability and ergonomic comfort, this project leverages the inherent structural functionality of a hiking backpacks internal skeleton to create an integrat
This study examines how hate motives are constructed through a linguistic phrasing in Swedish criminal court judgments from a sociology of law perspective. The aim is to analyze how courts as institutional actors produce and reproduce legal meaning of hate motives through juridical discourse. The study applies a qualitative discourse analytical approach with a linguistic focus and grounded in a so
This project centers on the experience of mindfulness training and investigates how industrial design can lower the barrier to everyday mindfulness practice while increasing bodily participation during training. The project begins with research on alexithymia, which draws attention to the relationship among emotional awareness, bodily sensations, and psychological training. As the research progr
I detta examensarbete, numeriska simuleringsverktyg- CFD och FEM- användes för att beräkna flödet, temperaturfältet och de termiska deformationerna inuti en maskin för försegling av den vertikala kanten av en kartongförpackning. Arket- förpackningsmaterialet har en U-form- matas in i maskinen- side sealer- där varm luft blåses mot båda kanterna av arket. Syftet är att smälta polymer lagret på kanIn this master’s thesis work, numerical simulation tools- computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and finite element method (FEM)- are used to predict the flow, the temperature field and the deformations within a machine for sealing the vertical seam of a carton package. The blank- the packaging material folded as a U-shape- is fed into the machine- the side sealer- where hot air is blown toward both e
This thesis compares the charging capacity of a reciprocal and a nonreciprocal quantum battery in the steady state. The model consists of two qubits functioning as a charger and a battery, where the charger is subjected to a linear driving field and the two qubits are linked via a coherent coupling. Both subsystems are coupled to separate dissipative environments, with an additional joint environm
The maritime industry is undergoing a transition towards alternative fuels to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. These fuels influence engine exhaust gas characteristics and consequently affect the performance of waste heat recovery (WHR) systems. This study investigates the impact of fuel type on the recoverable exhaust gas exergy of marine two-stroke engines and evaluates the suitability of differ
