Biodiversity is vital for ecosystem services underpinning food production and societal well-being, yet agriculture and food systems also contribute to its decline. Companies therefore play a central role, both as contributors to the problem and as agents of change, particularly in the context of increasing EU sustainability reporting and compliance requirements. The region of Scania in southern S
Detta kandidatarbete undersöker hur utformningen av en produkt kan förenkla vardagshandling och minska beroendet av bil vid inköp av dagligvaror. Arbetet tar sin utgångspunkt i en målgrupp som lever utan bil, ofta i mindre bostäder, och som upplever svårigheter med att integrera spontana eller nödvändiga inköp i en tidspressad vardag mellan jobb, skola och aktiviteter. Syftet har varit att utvecklThis bachelor’s thesis examines how the design of a product can simplify everyday grocery shopping and reduce car dependency. The project focuses on a target group that lives without a car, often in smaller apartments, and faces challenges integrating spontaneous or necessary purchases into a time-pressed daily schedule of work, school, and activities. The aim has been to develop an aid that facil
In recent years, global supply chains have become increasingly exposed to disruptions caused by geopolitical tensions, wars, and other external uncertainties. At ASSA ABLOY's Business Segment Pedestrian (BSP), this has led to a need to reassess the current sourcing strategy, particularly within inbound logistics, where a strong dependence on a limited number of sourcing locations has created v
ygg- och anläggningssektorn står inför växande utmaningar kopplade till resurser, klimatpåverkan och tillgången till jungfruliga ballastmaterial. Samtidigt har omställningen mot en mer cirkulär ekonomi ökat intresset för återvunna material såsom slaggrus från avfallsförbränning. Trots dokumenterade tekniska egenskaper och flera framgångsrika tillämpningar i Sverige och utomlands är användningen av
Detta examensarbete undersöker potentialen och begränsningarna för lokal eldelning i småhusområden genom att analysera sambandet mellan lokal solcellsproduktion och elkonsumtion i befintliga lågspänningsnät på landsbygden. Studien baseras på kvartsupplöst mätdata från E.ON Energidistribution från år 2025, med konsumtions- och produktionsdata från enskilda hushåll och fem nätstationer. Målet var atThis master thesis investigates the potential and limitations of local electricity sharing in residential distribution networks by analysing the correlation between local photovoltaic (PV) generation and electricity consumption in existing rural low-voltage grids. The study is based on quarter-hour resolution measurement data from 2025 provided by E.ON, including consumption and production data fr
Forskningsfråga: Vilka faktorer påverkar finansiell hållbarhet i svenska kommuner och kommunala koncerner? Skiljer sig utfallet mellan kommunen som juridisk person och den kommunala koncernen? Syfte: Att analysera och undersöka demografiska faktorers påverkan på finansiell hållbarhet med särskilt fokus på att jämföra kommuner med kommunala koncerner. Metod: Kvantitativ paneldataanalys, Fixed Effec
In Sweden every property unit needs to go through a suitability judgement when subdivided or amended. The judgement asks whether the property unit is suitable for its intended use regarding how the property unit´s boundary is drawn. What constitutes a suitable property unit is well established for most types of uses. This is not the case for property units with a dam on them, so called dam-propert
Denna studie menade att undersöka ifall det går att förstå studenters beteenden i studierelaterade situationer utifrån expectancy-value teorin. Beteendena delades in i de fyra kategorierna: studier, andra konstruktiva beteenden, self-handicapping och prokrastinering. Metodiken i studien användes i syfte att spegla expectancy-value teorin där värderingen av en konsekvens samt förväntan att den konsThis study aimed to explore students' behaviours in relation to studies, based on the practical use of the expectancy-value theory. The behaviours were categorized into four different categories: studies, constructive behaviours, self-handicapping and procrastination. The methodology was designed to reflect the expectancy-value theory since the expected consequence of a certain behaviour and t
Gender tests in sports have become increasingly popular amongst sports gov-erning bodies. Even the International Olympic Committee only recently, in March 2026, introduced a new rule requiring female athletes to undergo ge-netic testing to be allowed to compete in the female category. This article ex-amines gender testing in sport and the question of whether these regulations violate the human rig
This thesis examines whether and how external ESG-related pressures are integrated into internal management control practices within a Chinese firm context.
Conventional monoclonal antibodies that function via occupancy-based inhibition often fall short due to drug resistance and non-enzymatic scaffolding functions that persist despite successful inhibition of the target protein. Antibody-based proteolysis targeting chimeras (AbTACs) utilize a novel event-driven modality allowing for specific degradation of the target protein. This study investigated
The purpose of this study was to investigate social workers’ competence, use of, and attitudes towards artificial intelligence (AI) within social work services, with a focus on identifying how AI affects the professional role. The reason we wish to research this subject is that artificial intelligence has become increasingly relevant in society and may come to influence social work in various ways
This thesis investigates how the 2004 European Union enlargement influenced economic development in border regions of new member states. Using a synthetic difference-in-differences approach on panel data for NUTS 3 regions across all EU member states between 1995-2024, the analysis estimates the causal effect of EU accession on border regions relative to interior regions. The results show that lan
This project addresses the challenge of designing for permanence within a heavily gentrified and tourist-driven environment. It responds directly to local housing needs while integrating small-scale tourism and establishing clear spatial boundaries to safeguard local biodiversity. While housing constitutes the central focus of the proposal, the project also argues that permanence cannot be secur
Detta projekt utforskar en ny kategori av funktionella sportskor, anpassade för en av de snabbast växande sporterna idag - HY- ROX. Målet med projektet är att designa en tävlingsko för Hyrox som kombinerar egenskaper för löpning med funktionell träning. Projektet fokuserar både på de funktionella aspekterna i skon och att utrycka sportens identitet i designen. Förstudien inkluder- ar intervjuer meThis project explores a new area of performance shoes aimed for one of the fastest growing sports today - HYROX. The goal for this project is to design a Hyrox specific racing shoe that combine properties for running with functional training. The project focus on the performance aspects of the shoe as well as expressing the identity of the sport. Research involve interviews with high level Hyrox c
This study aimed to explore how social workers view nature-based therapy and how it can help people with mental health issues in a Swedish context. To better understand restorative social work using nature, we examined the limitations, benefits, and opportunities that social workers perceive when using nature-based therapy in their profession. We did this through semi-structured interviews with si
This degree project combines computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations with experimental validation using a Büchi B-290 spray dryer to study particle deposition patterns during spray drying of a glycerol-based solution. The CFD simulations were performed using ANSYS Fluent with a monophasic air model, where the liquid phase was represented as discrete inert particles injected via the Disc
Automated sorting and classification of scrap cemented carbide cutting inserts represent a critical technological frontier for sustainable industrial recycling. This master's thesis project successfully develops, evaluates, and methodologically deconstructs an artificial intelligence (AI)-based sensor framework utilizing Acoustic Emission (AE) signals to identify discrete material grades. The
