This bachelor thesis has been conducted in collaboration with TeamVate. The project focuses on the development and implementation of an onboarding wizard within TeamVate’s App Studio. The goal is to improve user experience and effectiveness for new users. To reach this goal, we implemented an iterative design process, using Norman’s heuristics, creating both Lo-Fi and Hi-Fi prototypes and conducti
Recycling of textile fibers is a mandatory step in the life-cycle of fabrics to avoid incineration or landfilling. After fiber-to-fiber recycling, cellulose fiber saccharification opens the door to the production of biochemical building blocks through microbial fermentation. This study documents for the first time the production of optically pure D-lactic acid (D-LA), one of the precursors of poly
This thesis explores the escalating and often underestimated issue of bird-window collisions, specifically within the Swedish context, through the lens of the built environment. Globally, hundreds of millions of birds die annually from colliding with glass surfaces, with estimates reaching nearly a billion birds in North America alone. This significant threat is compounded by modern architectural
OBJECTIVE: Screening for abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) using ultrasound in men reduces aneurysm-related mortality. Ambulatory screening and surveillance procedures facilitated by point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) may improve adherence to screening programs. This proof-of-concept study evaluated whether infrarenal aortic diameter (IAD) can be accurately and interchangeably measured using handheld
A century after the Spanish Flu, the COVID-19 pandemic has brought renewed attention to socioeconomic and occupational differences in mortality in the earlier pandemic. The magnitude of these differences and the pathways between occupation and increased mortality remain unclear, however. In this paper, we explore the relation between occupational characteristics and excess mortality among men duri
This paper initially presents an introduction to the Swedish land administration system, particularly focusing on the parts of the Real Property Register that compose the cadastre. Here, a brief retrospect of the long tradition of land related registration follows by an account of the current components, functions and parties concerned. The second part of the paper then discusses a vision, express
The purpose of the present study is threefold. Firstly, I wish to investigate the phenomenon of double supines in colloquial Swedish. In doing so, I hope to achieve my second purpose, which is to take a first step towards a better understanding of a particular kind of complementation of which the double supine construction forms a subset. I will refer to this complementation as parasitic complemen
Traditional control design using MATLAB/Simulink, often disregards the temporal effects arising fromthe actual implementation of the controllers. Nowadays, controllersare often implemented as tasks in a real-time kernel and communicatewith other nodes over a network. Consequently, the constraints of thetarget system, e.g., limited CPU speed and network bandwidth, must betaken into account at desig
Väpnade konflikter är komplexa och mångfacetterade – män och kvinnors roller och nivå av inblandning varier avsevärt. Med detta i åtanke är det nödvändigt för internationell rätt och dess utövare att erbjuda ett reellt skydd, där ansvarsutkrävande och upprättelse erbjuds på lika villkor för alla oavsett kön. Risken är annars att vissa grupper osynliggörs. Sammanfattningsvis krävs det en nyanserad
Uppsatsen centrerar kring två aktuella frågor: anklagelser om sexuella övergrepp i FN:s fredsbevarande operationer, och konstruerandet av könsroller. De specifika frågeställningarna för uppsatsen är inledningsvis vilka könsroller som konstrueras i primärmaterialet, vilket innefattar tre årliga FN-rapporter. Den andra frågeställningen syftar till att utreda huruvida den konstruerade, militära masku
Sexualbrott är ett ämne upprör och föranleder en ständigt infekterad debatt. Tilltalade personer som frias efter att ha utsatt offer för sexuella övergrepp mot deras vilja har väckt frågan om grunden för våldtäktsbrottet kan utgöras av ett krav på bristande samtycke. Denna uppsats syftar till att undersöka huruvida den svenska våldtäktsbestämmelsen skulle kunna bygga på ett samtyckesrekvisit och dSexual offences bring forth a sensitive and intense debate. Acquittal of offenders guilty of sexually molesting a victim against its will have arisen the question whether the rape crime ought to be constructed with non-consent as a necessary condition. The thesis’ purpose is to investigate whether the Swedish rape crime could be based on non-consent and consequently replace the provision of today,
Media shapes the public´s perceptions of social problems and how we understand the people affected by them. This study investigates the shaping of dual diagnosis, a concept that refers to the co-occurrence of a mental illness and substance use, a phenomena that has gained increased prominence in the last decades. While those suffering from dual diagnosis rarely have their voices heard in research,
Ett vanligt förekommenade problem vid utformning av stål-och betonganslutningar i hörn är att platsbrist kan ge upphov till anslutningar som är asymmetriskt utformade. De avvikande placeringarna på bultarna medför komplexa beräkningar och skapar ett behov av förenklade modeller vid design. Förenklingen kan leda till skillnader i brottsbeteende mellan designen och den fysiska produkten vilket kan lA commonly occurring problem when designing steel-to-concrete connections in corners with space deficits is the necessity for irregularly placed bolts with regards to design codes. The complexity of the calculations for the irregular placements of bolts generates the need to use simplified models during the design. This simplification could lead to differences between the design and the physical p
For many years, indigeneity has been conceptualized as rural, making Indigenous communities and people in cities invisible globally. For the Sámi people, Europe’s only indigenous people, security is mainly understood as physical-centering extraction and environmental degradation. Focusing on the urban Sámi community in Umeå in Sweden, cultural and political belonging in the city arises as vital in
Bostadsrätt är en av de vanligaste boendeformerna i Sverige. Det finns närmare 30 000 aktiva bostadsrättsföreningar och ungefär en miljon bostadsrätter. Under det senaste decenniet har priserna på bostadsrätter tredubblats och många nybyggnationsprojekt har inletts. Att köpa en bostad är för många en av de viktigaste investeringarna i personens liv, inte bara för att det är en stor ekonomisk affär
Köp av sexuell tjänst har i Sverige varit förbjudet sedan 1999. Införandet av förbudet var en del i arbetet mot mäns våld mot kvinnor. Lagen har därefter genomgått en rad ändringar, senast en straffskärpning 2022. I december 2022 publicerade Norges regering en offentlig utredning där ett förslag på avkriminalisering av sexköp presenterades. I Norge inspirerades man 2009 av den svenska modellen ochThe crime of purchase of sexual services has been criminalized in Sweden since 1999. The introduction of the ban was part of the work against men's violence against women. The law has subsequently undergone a series of changes, most recently a toughening of the penalty in August 2022. In December 2022, the Norwegian government published a public inquiry in which a proposal for the decriminaliz
This study aimed to investigate how two Spanish newspapers, El País, and El Español, portrayed human trafficking for sexual purposes, prostitution, and the central actors. To gain insight and a better understanding of this, eleven news articles from each daily press that were published between the years 2021 and 2023, have been analyzed. The focus has been on both the manifest and latent messages
När brottsutredande myndigheter använder hemliga tvångsmedel kan det framkomma uppgifter som saknar samband med det brott som föranlett tvångsåtgärden men som kan vara av relevans för andra brottsutredningar. Sådan så kallad överskottsinformation är särskilt känslig ur integritets- och rättssäkerhetssynpunkt eftersom uppgifterna har inhämtats utan vare sig rättens eller den berördes tillstånd. UpWhen law enforcement authorities use secret coercive measures, information may emerge that is unrelated to the crime that induced the coercive measure, but which may be relevant to other criminal investigations. Such so-called surplus information is obtained without permission of the court or the person concerned. Therefore, it is particularly sensitive and risks entailing excessive interference w
The aim of the study is to analyze how mental illness among young people is represented as a social problem in newspapers. A qualitative method has been utilized to analyze 63 different articles published within the period of 2019-01-01 to 2019-06-30 in three of Sweden’s largest newspapers. Additionally, the theoretical framework that has been applied is the theory of claims-making. Furthermore, i
