Recurring natural and man-made disasters are resulting in an increasing number of displaced people who need to be provided with urgent accommodation. Due to insufficient legal regulations and effective construction methods, refugees are often located in conditions defined as ‘temporary’, offering low quality of living conditions, degrading social environment and destructive impact on the city land
To continue the development of novel therapeutics to treat bladder cancer, a reliable model for preclinical testing of treatments and studying of the disease mechanism is essential. Ex vivo culturing of precision cut tumor slices (PCTS) provides a model that can retain the tumor architecture and its tumor microenvironment including the immune cell compartment, but data on PCTS based on bladder tum
Agricultural biomass to energy holds promise for the sustainability of energy production and positive reduction of CO2 emission. This thesis explores the potential of rice husk as a sustainable energy source for electricity and process heat generation focusing on a rice mill in Sri Lanka. It utilizes advanced thermochemical conversion technologies specifically separate reactors for pyrolysis and g
In pursuit of energy efficiency and sustainable development, goals have been set by the EU and Sweden to improve the energy performance of buildings and reduce their environmental impact. Renovating the existing building stock is a path to achieving the energy and climate goals. This study investigates and analyses various retrofitting options for multifamily residential buildings in Skåne, Sweden
Food and the feminine self have always had a profoundly complex relationship. It has been the site of gender oppression, corporeal discipline and more recently, self-pleasure and creativity for women. It is clear that material world foodwork has provided women with a resource to navigate gender ideals, whether from a more traditional or contemporary perspective; this idea extends to foodwork in th
With an increase in temperature (T) and a change in precipitation (P) patterns due to climate change, global conditions for tree growth are changing and shifting. While some areas experience an increase in P, favoring tree growth, many regions are also predicted to show a decrease in P, leading to trends of desertification. This study examines the projected climate change in Nigeria, located in Su
Old-growth forests have profound roles in the provision of biodiversity and multiple ecosystem services. These forests and their protection are threatened by structures within the Swedish Forestry Model and Sweden’s attitude towards the European Union’s environmental and climate policies relating to forest management. A literature review and semi-structured interviews employed through a mixed-meth
I den här uppsatsen tar jag utgångspunkt i publiken som aktivt tolkande agenter. Istället för att försöka ändra på publiken, undersöker jag i uppsatsen hur man, som scenkonstskapare, kan arbeta med ett verk för att ge utrymme för varje publikdeltagare och deras respektive tolkningar, som de är. Frågan jag diskuterar är: hur kan man, i ett scenkonstverk, arbeta medvetet med utrymmet för publikens a
This master’s thesis is written for Tetra Pak with the aim to investigate if pitting corrosion inhibition can be detected for Stainless Steel 316L in contact with dairy products in an experimental setup. The aim was also to continue developing a corrosion test method to facilitate for material selection of food pro- cessing equipment in order to reduce the extent of detrimental pitting corrosion.
This thesis is about European integration, reflected in the problem representations made by the European Union concerning asylum from the Dublin III Regulation (2013) and the Asylum and Migration Management Regulation (2020).
