This thesis investigates how national institutional architectures mediate the effectiveness of government support in shaping the international success of military-industrial firms. Through a comparative case study of SAAB (Sweden) and Rheinmetall AG (Germany), it analyzes firm performance across export capability, profitability, and dual-use innovation. Despite similar product domains, the firms a
Digitaliseringen har omformat bygg- och fastighetssektorn, och digitala tvillingar är ett snabbt framväxande koncept där flera av de nya teknologierna i branschen sammankopplas. Digitala tvillingar representerar nästa steg efter byggnadsinformationsmodellering (BIM). En digital tvilling, en virtuell kopia, med ett bidirektionellt datautbyte med sin fysiska motsvarighet i realtid, har potential attDigitalization has reshaped the AECO (Architecture, Engineering, Construction and Operation) industry, and digital twins are a rapidly emerging concept where several of the industry's new technologies are gathered. Digital twins represent the next step after Building Information Modeling (BIM). A digital twin, a virtual copy, with a bidirectional data exchange with its physical counterpart in
This thesis examines how societal circumstances and historical references can be included in the construction of narratives with the intention of reaching and influencing listeners in a particular direction. It is based on two historical periods in Italy's history, first, the fascist takeover of the Kingdom of Italy, and then the establishment of the Republic of Italy following the fall of the
The thesis analyzes and explains the current situation for the Russian minority in Estonia. Using Oren Yiftachel’s theoretical framework of Ethnocracy, it examines key documents related to integration, such as the constitution and policy documents, through textual analysis. It briefly covers the integration process from independence in the 1990s to the present. The findings of the study shows that
Transgender individuals in Georgia face persistent stigma, violence, and limited institutional protections, yet little is known about how they cope with such hostility and what supports are available to them. Guided by Minority Stress Theory and coping research that distinguishes adaptive from maladaptive strategies, this study explored coping practices, social support, and mental health among tra
Cameras are an ever growing part of all humans’ everyday life, from smartphones to surveillance cameras. One thing they all have in common is the need for a stable and focused image, even in conditions with camera movement as a result of external factors. To counteract the issue of blurry images from vibration disturbances, a technique called Optical Image Stabilization (OIS) is commonly used. In
Buildings are responsible for approximately 30% of global energy use, with HVAC systems accounting for 40% of that demand. Among these, data centers have become significant energy consumers, requiring highly efficient and stable cooling solutions. This project aims to explore data-driven control methods to improve the energy efficiency of data center cooling systems as well as reduce the effort an
In may of 2022 a EU law was proposed with the intent of stopping the online spread of CSAM (Child Sexual Abuse Material) by monitoring all online communication in search of child exploitation material. Since then, the proposed law has come under scrutiny due to the suggested surveillance of civilians without any need for criminal suspicion. Today the proposed law is most commonly known as Chat Con
Prior research has established that misinformation can distort episodic memory, and that attention plays a critical role in how these distortions unfold. Eye movements, as a real-time index of attention, offer a powerful method for investigating the mechanisms linking misinformation and memory. Although earlier studies have examined misinformation effects on eye movements, these studies have mostl
Characterising the performance of ICs is a daunting task. With every year that passes, transistor technology keeps advancing and reducing in size. We are at a moment where, due to working with sub-90nm processes, it is not possible to have complete control over the manufacturing of the chips on the silicon wafers. It is mandatory to characterise the behaviour of each transistor using statistics, n
Soot, formed during incomplete combustion of hydrocarbons, is a challenging compound to study. It affects air quality, climate, and human health. Its structural and optical properties are not fully understood due to variations in particle size, structure, chemical composition, and degree of carbon hybridization. In this work, soot was generated using a MiniCAST 5201C soot generator, which produces
On October 7, 2023, Hamas launched an attack in Israel, killing approximately 1,200 Israelis and taking hundreds hostage. In response, the Israeli government initiated a large-scale military operation in Gaza. As of March 2025, the strip is left in ruins with more than 50,000 Palestinians estimated to have been killed by Israeli warfare. The war has resulted in a fragmented and deeply divided inte
The process of associative inference is one that is vulnerable to social biases and misinformation. Previous research has shown that associative inference, where separate yet related episodes are combined into unified memory representations, benefits from ingroup contexts relative to outgroup contexts. The present study investigated whether these effects arise from differences in source monitoring
This thesis investigates the relationship between male graduation rates and institutional characteristics in U.S. higher education, focusing on faculty gender composition, the share of students receiving financial aid, and institutional level. Using panel data from 2021-2023, the study applies pooled OLS and fixed effects regression models. No statistically significant relationships were found in
Currently, a discussion is ongoing among key actors in the Swedish Library System concerning a prospective role for library institutions incorporated within the Swedish system of total defense. This discussion has emerged informed by the lessons learned from the Covid 19 Pandemic, and in light of the Russian invasion of Ukraine 2022, among other notable world events. In this ongoing process and di
The primary objective of this master's thesis was to systematically investigate how the net charge and charge distribution of disordered Histone H1.0 peptide variants influence the thermodynamics of their interaction with the fully disordered protein, Prothymosin-alpha (ProTα). This research aimed to provide new insights into the principles governing polyelectrolytic binding between two highly
The AI Commission prescribed a governance model, namely centralized leadership, to tackle existing digitalization challenges, as outlined in the Roadmap for Sweden at the end of 2024. This research discussed the implications of the Roadmap for Sweden on welfare governance within the Automated Decision-making (ADM) context as interpreted through a Weberian theoretical and methodological framework.
Identifying resonance frequencies caused by liquid sloshing in modular transport systems is essential for effective vibration suppression and minimising mechanical wear. An example of such a system is the ACOPOStrak by B&R, which utilises a Zero Vibration Filter (ZVF) to mitigate these effects. Accurate tuning of this filter requires knowledge of the system’s resonance frequencies. Obtaining t
