The concept of Industry 4.0 is widely discussed among scholars and business leaders alike. Being able to adapt to this fourth industrial revolution is argued by many as necessary to stay competitive and to be profitable. Many companies today, however, have production lines built on legacy systems, as well as their own unique product challenges. This study aims to overcome these challenges by explo
Due to the changing climate, rainfall in Sweden is expected to increase with about 20%-25% during this century which means that there is a need for climate adaptation to mitigate the problems that follow heavy rainfall. A way to climate adapt cities is by implementing bluegreen solutions. This study is about a system of blue-green solutions in a residential area in Lund. The system consists of fi
Studier av palaeostormfloder ger bakgrund till inom vilka intevall stormar av olika storlek förväntas återkomma och träffa olika områden. Denna information kan användas vid modellering, riskbedömning och stadsplanering.

This information can be used when modelling, doing risk assesments and city planing.

In 2017 the Upper Secondary School Act [Hereafter gymnasielag/en] was adopted in Sweden and provided temporary residence permits and a chance of permanent residency to ‘unaccompanied refugee minors’ who previously had been denied asylum. This study includes voices of four young people who have managed to fulfil this journey from temporary permits to permanent. Moreover, three people who through va
Bakgrund: Världshälsoorganisationen, WHO, deklarerade Covid-19 som en pandemi den 11 mars 2020. Viruset satte snabbt sina spår på byggbranschen och det ledde till vidtagna åtgärder. Lösningen som gick efter folkhälsomyndighetens centralt styrda restriktioner handlar framförallt om att undvika fysisk kontakt och skapa en säker och god fysisk miljö för arbetarna. För att säkerställa en god arbetsmilBackground: The World Health Organization, WHO, declared Covid-19 a pandemic on March 11, 2020. The virus quickly left its mark on the construction industry and this led to measures taken. The solution that followed the public health authority's restrictions is above all, avoiding physical contact and creating a safe environment for the employees. To ensure a functionate environment, the const
The board at the Student accommodation house Michael Hansens Kollegium (MHK) in Lund, Sweden was interested to investigate if the building Benzelius 2 could benefit from having a solar system installed on it’s roof. The report shall answer on what eventual costs and savings the solar system would result in. The report shall give the board of MHK an indication whether to invest or not. Several meth
This qualitative mixed methods case study aims to seek understanding of employer branding within the public sector from a New Public Management perspective. The chosen case is two campaigns from the Swedish Armed Forces of 2011 and 2019. Due to political changes in Sweden, the Swedish Armed Forces faced major organizational changes regarding their staffing. Through a text analysis of the commer
Trots att textilindustrin är den näst mest klimatpåverkande industrin i världen efter oljeindustrin, med enorma miljö- och hälsoproblem som följd fortsätter textilkonsumtionen öka. Inte minst drivet av efterfrågan av så kallad ”fast fashion”, moderiktiga plagg till lågt pris med låg hållbarhet och snabb omsättning. Med begrepp som ”hållbart mode” har industrin istället haft ambition att producera Although that the textile-industry is considered the world’s second most climate affecting industry, consumption seems to never cease. The Swedish start-up project Streamateria provides new opportunities through a distributed production-line that offers bio-degradable garments through 3D-printing technology, with the ambition to meet consumer demand for "fast fashion" The aim of the stu
Bakgrund: Hot och våld har ökat i samhället och är idag ett stort och växande problem. Hot- och våldssituationer ökar även mot blåljuspersonal vilket har föranlett en ny lag mot blåljussabotage. Ambulanssjukvården är verksam i hot- och våldsbelastade och otrygga miljöer och tidigare forskning visar att hot och våld mot ambulanspersonal upplevs förekomma i allt större utsträckning. Tidigare forskni
Det är känt inom den typologiska lingvistiken att spatial rörelse uttrycks på olika sätt på olika språk. På svenska uttrycks ofta en rörelses sätt i verbroten och dess riktning i en till verbet knuten satellit (S-språk), då franskan vanligtvis däremot uttrycker rörelsens riktning i verbroten och utelämnar dess sätt (V-språk). Svensktalande föredrar i en given situation ett uttryck som en uggla komIt is well known within typological linguistics that the expression of motion is language-specific. In Swedish the manner of a motion is typically expressed in a verb while the path of motion is expressed in a satellite connected to the verb (S- languages), whereas, in French, typically the path of motion is expressed in the verb and the manner is omitted. This explains why speakers of Swedish see
The purpose of this thesis is to problematize how Swedish migration policy is being legitimized. The study examines discourses in debates about migration between the Moderate Party and the Swedish Social Democratic Party. There are two major areas of interest: firstly, their discussions about the change in migration policies in 2015 and 2016, and secondly, their articulations of the unaccompanied
Den bästa teorin vi har om den subatomära världen kallas för ”Standardmodellen”. Standardmodellen beskriver de allra minsta partiklarna och deras interaktioner med varandra genom den elektromagnetiska svaga och starka kraften. Genom åren har Standardmodellen förutspått en rad av olika partiklar som har verifierats experimentellt. År 2012 upptäcktes den allra sista partikeln förutspådd av standardmIn this thesis, we extend the Higgs sector of the Standard Model by two scalar singlets and impose a discrete Z2 symmetry on each of them, under which, both singlets are odd. One of the two scalar singlets will acquire a vacuum expectation value while the other one does not. This leads to one scalar field mixing with the SM-like Higgs field and one stable scalar singlet. Thus, three scalar bosons
Konsultbranschen växer och hur detta påverkar individer, organisationer och samhället diskuteras frekvent i media. I denna studie vänds blicken mot konsulternas perspektiv och syftet med uppsatsen är att analysera konsulters upplevelse av sin yrkesform. Metoden för studien är kvalitativ och fem semistrukturerade intervjuer ligger till grund för den empiri som presenteras. Studien har gjorts utifrå
Medarbetarupplevelse (employee satisfaction or employee experience) is an organizational phenomenon that has become an ascending work-process within the HR-profession. Through five interviews with various HR-practitioners, we managed to answer this essay’s three framing questions: 1) How can medarbetarupplevelse be defined? 2) Which essential and mutual factors can we identify in the interviews?

The shape of a diffuse reflectance spectra can provide knowledge about tissue composition. By analysing this spectra one can, with the right evaluation methods, find out information about the tissue. With known absorption properties of the present tissue chromophores it is possible, with a curve fit algorithm, to find their volume fractions in any measured tissue. In this work, the usability of
This thesis first and foremost analyzes and compares Hamas and Fatah's political documents from 2005 and 2009 respectively, and how Israel is portrayed as the enemy in these documents. The theoretical framework focuses on enemy images, but also includes concepts such as national identity, intractable conflicts, intergroup relations and the Other. These concepts are necessary to broaden my anal
Sammanfattning Enligt svensk rätt krävs det att parterna till en transaktion har vidtagit ett sakrättsligt moment för att en förvärvare av lös egendom ska vara skyddad mot överlåtarens borgenärer. Vilket sakrättsligt moment som uppställs varierar beroende på vilken typ av egendom som transaktionen rör. Vid förvärv av lösöre vinner köparen som huvudregel skydd mot säljarens borgenärer först när vaSummary Swedish law requires that the parties to a transaction have fulfilled a controllable measure in order for a buyer of movable property to obtain protection against the seller’s creditors. What kind of controllable measure that needs to be carried out varies depending on what type of property the transaction concerns. When the purchase concerns chattels the main rule is that the buyer recei
