My master’s thesis project is an exploration of how a new distributon model could be implemented in a swedish local food chain in order to make local food accessible and attractive to a larger group of people. The interest in local food is increasing rapidly in Sweden. Farmers are turning directly to consumers for increased profit and less pressure from the industry. At the same time consumers ar
The performance of the Sub Grid Scale models is studied by simulating a separated flow over a wavy channel. The first and second order statistical moments of the resolved velocities obtained by using Large-Eddy simulations at different mesh resolutions are compared with Direct Numerical Simulations data. The effectiveness of modeling the wall stresses by using local log-law is then tested on a rel
Local treatment of metastases such as metastasectomy or radiotherapy remains controversial in the treatment of metastatic renal cell carcinoma. To investigate the benefits and harms of various local treatments, we did a systematic review of all types of comparative studies on local treatment of metastases from renal cell carcinoma in any organ. Interventions included metastasectomy, radiotherapy m
This paper compares the regulatory structures that have developed in local bus regulation over the past 20 years in local public transport in Sweden and England outside London, and their impacts. The paper will attempt to assess how far there are similarities in these structures and whether there is evidence of any form of convergence. It does so with a review of the relevant legislation and struc
The regime theory is the dominant paradigm in the studies of urban politics in USA. It provides a set of concepts to analyse the change from government to governance in the American local politics. The regime theory postulates that governing power in local government tends to be highly fragmented. The private sector has with its control of economic resources a major influence in shaping governing
While the international community spends enormous amounts of money engaging in peacebuilding efforts, scholars are increasing questioning what effect this actually has on the development of peace. Despite extensive economic contributions to post-conflict societies with the hope of ensuring peace, little development on the ground has been recorded. This raises a question of why provision of economi
In recent years the role of partnerships has become a popular approach in the crime prevention area where it is argued that crime is a multifaceted problem that requires work from several actors to be solved effectively. However, despite the increasing popularity of partnerships there is a lack of research that explains the effects that comes from this work. This paper is written in collaboration
Finland has a long history of constructing civil defence shelters and considering defence from a comprehensive, whole-of-society approach. Due to that long history, the requirements for civil defence construction have varied throughout the decades although the main purpose of the civil defence shelter system has remained the same: protecting the population from the effects of armed conflicts.

Public transport is essential for closing the gap between different geographical locations. The equal distribution of opportunities to travel is fundamental in both Edward Soja’s theory of spatial justice and Karel Martens’ theory of transport justice. Access to modes of transport may vary according to the socioeconomic status of the area, creating differences in transport opportunities based on l
The majority of herbivorous insects are specialized in host use. Even among insects that use many hosts, local specialization is common with a single host plant often being used in any given locality. Here, we establish such a pattern for the European swallowtail butterfly, Papilio machaon. We sampled larvae on five different natural hosts at eight sites in Sweden, each locality showing local mono
Steroid injections are often employed as an alternative treatment for radicular pain in patients with degenerative spinal disorders. Prospective randomised studies of the lumbar spine reveal contradictory results and non-randomised and most often retrospective studies of the cervical spine indicate pain reduction from steroid injections. No prospective randomised study on transforaminal steroid in
A non-local gradient-based damage formulation within a geometrically non-linear setting is presented. The hyperelastic constitutive response at local material point level is governed by a strain energy which is additively composed of an isotropic matrix and of an anisotropic fibre-reinforced material, respectively. The inelastic constitutive response is governed by a scalar [1–d]-type damage formu
The thesis proceeds from Sweden’s first gender equality sub-goal; Equal Division of Power and Influence, in order to investigate how the political power is divided between the sexes within local committees in Skåne and in Lund. Political commitments at local level should be carried out alongside labour or other occupation; and thus the overall aim of the thesis is to investigate if labour market m
Climate change is exponentially becoming one of the most pressing issues of our time. While it is an issue that plaques the international community it is an issue that needs to be addressed on all levels. Local government has been highlighted as the level closest to the people and is uniquely positioned to instigate a range of activities that directly address climate change and sustainability. Thi
This thesis analyzes the effects of mountain tourism on local people and communities in Nepal with a focus on three main questions: the equity of mountain jobs, the impacts of Western mountaineering’s dominance on local cultures, and the respect and lack of respect for local workers' lives. Despite repeated accounts of precarious and dangerous working conditions the adventure and mountain tour
Aim: Anthropogenic-driven biodiversity loss can impact ecosystem stability. However, most studies have only evaluated the diversity–stability relationship at the local scale and we do not fully understand which factors stabilize animal populations and communities across scales. Here, we investigate the role of species dispersal ability, climate, spatial distance and different facets of biodiversit
