Sentinel-2 based data provides interesting opportunities for land monitoring and applications in agriculture. High-Resolution Vegetation Phenology and Productivity (HR-VPP) is derived from Sentinel-2 data and offers up to 13 metrics. These metrics have a high spatial resolution (10x10m) and enables the possibility for in-field agricultural monitoring. The aim of this study is to evaluate four of t
The right of public access, in Swedish called allemansrätten, gives people the opportunity to roam freely in nature. Whether one prefers to explore nature by foot, on a bike or on a pair of skis is up to the individual since the right of public access includes all the above-mentioned types of transportation. Today there seems to be a trend that the usage of cross-country skiing tracks and mountain
This thesis’ main goals were to provide accurate forecasts and informative physical parameter estimates for energy use of the district heating in the Tingbjerg neighborhood, Copenhagen. Our work is aimed as a contribution for future work towards efficient on-demand energy production. We applied Dynamic Double Machine Learning to estimate the causal effects of weather observations on energy use. Th
För att nå Sveriges transportpolitiska mål är krävs det att fler väljer cykeln som huvudsakligt färdmedel. Genom att prioritera cyklisters trafiksäkerhet och framkomlighet ökar attraktiviteten vilket gör att fler väljer att cykla. I denna studie har tre korsningar i Malmö analyserats med avseende på trafiksäkerhet och framkomlighet där syftet var att undersöka hur trafiksäkerhet och framkomlighet In order to achieve Sweden's transport policy goals, it is required that more people choose the bicycle as their main mode of transport. By prioritizing cyclists' traffic safety and level of service, attractiveness increases, which means that more people choose to cycle. In this study, three intersections in Malmö have been analyzed with regard to traffic safety and level of service, where
I Sverige finns en lång tradition av att bygga småhus i trä. År 2022 beräknas det byggas ca 15 000 småhus varav den absoluta majoriteten byggs i trä. Att bygga mer i trä är något som eftersträvas då det är betydligt mer klimatvänligt än andra material. För att bygga tak används oftast prefabricerade takstolar där råspont eller plywoodskivor används som undertak. Det finns ofta inget extra system fIn Sweden there is a long-standing tradition of building houses out of wood. In the year 2022 it is expected that 15 000 houses will be built, where the majority are built out of wood. There is an aim to build more out of wood since it has less impact on the climate than other materials. To build roofs prefabricated trusses are often used, and the trusses are covered by tongue and groove (t&g)
This thesis is inspired by the lack of academic discourse on human rights aspects of human space settlement. It builds on the ever-growing literature on colonizing Mars and the ongoing public debate on the benefits versus disadvantages thereof. Taking on a critical approach, this thesis opens up a conversation on power, universalism, and legitimacy within space exploration, questioning both the on
Bakgrund: Hamstringsskador (HSI) är en av de vanligaste idrottsrelaterade skadorna och incidensen har ökat de senaste årtiondena. Idrottare som ofta drabbas är fotbollsspelare: 22% av alla fotbollsspelare drabbas av en HSI per säsong. Studier visar att tidigare HSI är den absolut största riskfaktorn för att drabbas igen och preventiva interventioner är därför en viktig komponent för att minska inc
A prototype of a novel 10B-based neutron detector called the Multi-Grid detector has been constructed, tested and commissioned for the European Spallation Source (ESS). The detector is constructed after the specifications set by the CSPEC instrument at ESS and is therefore called the CSPEC Multi-Grid detector. The detector uses multiple layers of solid coating containing 10B4C on the edges of a vo
Matters of housing are an often-discussed topic within architecture these days. As a subject, it is often recurring in architectural media, such as books, debates, podcasts, videos, and others. Sweden, like large parts of the developed world, faces right now a multitude of unique issues related to housing. It has become an expensive commodity, especially for younger people. Most of the existing ho
The median age for Swedish earth embankment dams is about 60 years. Due to its longevity, one of the major concerns is the internal erosion causing increased seepage through the dam, which ultimately may increases the risk for dam failure. To meet this challenge, there is a need for improved monitoring methods. This in turn requires sensors to be installed inside the earth embankment dams in order
This project designs an RF switch operating in E-band to provide a transmit path from a Class-F power amplifier (PA). The basic RF switch is based on the single-pole double-throw (SPDT) topology using shunt transistor switches and two λ/4 transmission line. The transistors used in this project are nanowire MOSFET transistors developed by the Division of Electromagnetics and Nanoelectronics, LTH, L

Bakgrund: Diabetes typ 2 är en kronisk och ökande folksjukdom som kräver livslång behandling. Primärvården bedriver särskilda diabetesmottagningar där diabetessjuksköterskan har en nyckelfunktion tack vare sin kompetens. För att göra vården mer evidensbaserad, säkerställa dess kvalité och jämlik för personer med diabetes har diabetesmottagningar i primärvården i Skåne sedan 2016 certifierats. Syft
Acknowledging, the research gap within sustainability transitions in analysing the local scale of transition processes, this work primarily, seeks to contribute to sustainability transitions studies by identifying the main factors that are enabling and hindering the materialization of low carbon mobility in Cuenca, Ecuador. The use of a case study as a research strategy and the nature of the rese
The Swedish Social Democratic Party promoted open borders before the election in 2014, however, implemented restrictive migration policies when in office. The purpose of this paper is to explain why they have changed their migrations policies based on Gunnar Sjöblom’s theory of arena competition on how political parties behave in multiparty systems. According to the theory, decisions-makers of po
The behaviour and fate of stem cells is governed by the material properties of their surrounding microenvironment. Hence emulating the extracellular matrix poses as an attractive target for tissue engineering endeavours to create a stem cell substrate. Currently, the knowledge of the material properties is mostly limited to the macroscopic level which considerably limits the understanding of tissu
2016 tillsatte regeringen en utredning för att undersöka regleringen av den villkorliga frigivningen. Utredningen fick i uppdrag att undersöka om det finns skäl att föregå ett beslut om uppskjuten villkorlig frigivning med en riskbedömning av huruvida det finns risk för klienter i kriminalvårdsanstalt att återfalla i brott vid frigivningen. Utredningen kom fram till att det strider mot kravet på rIn 2016, the government commissioned an investigation to consider possible changes in the regulation of the conditional release. The investigation was commissioned to investigate whether there is a reason to precede a decision on a deferred conditional release with a risk assessment of whether there is a risk for clients in prison to re-offend when released. The investigation found that allowing p
Sedan 2010 är föräldrar som är vårdnadshavare solidariskt skadeståndsskyldiga med sina barn för skador som barnen orsakat genom brott. Ansvaret är begränsat till sak- och personskador samt skador genom kränkning, och skadeståndets storlek begränsat till en femtedels prisbasbelopp per skadehändelse. Regeln infördes trots, och utan hänsyn till, den omfattande kritik som framfördes av otaliga remissiSince 2010, parents who are custodians are jointly and severally liable with their children for damages that the children have caused by crime. The liability is limited to property and personal injuries as well as damages through violation, and the amount of the damages is limited to one-fifth of the price base amount per claim. The rule was introduced despite, and without regard to, the extensive
