The unitary patent package (Regulation 1257/2012 creating a unitary patent protection (UPR) , Regulation 1260/2012 on language regime creating a unitary patent protection (UPRL) , and the Agreement on a Unified Patent Court (UPCA) ) will make it possible to apply for a single patent (European patent with unitary effect or EPUE) at the non-EU European Patent Office (EPO) in Munich. EPUE will cover
The main objective of this thesis is to study the brand manager’s role within a global business to business (B2B) company. In order to meet the main objective we have chosen to study and analyse one global B2B company, Alfa Laval AB, Alfa Laval DK, Alfa Laval PL and its co-partners such as an advertising agency. We have also studied three global business to customer (B2C) companies, Mars, Unilever

The regional disparities in China are increasing, at the same time as the growth moderates. In order to keep successful development in the future, China is rapidly developing the rail infrastructure, as one of the main channels to obtain a balanced regional development. The argument is that regional inequalities will decrease through increased economic interconnection and mobility provided by the
This research aims to investigate the relation of CEO compensation, especially how the sensitivity of CEO wealth to stock return volatility (vega), but also how the sensitivity of CEO wealth to stock price (delta) affects the risk of the firm. Moreover, these relations are investigated in the context of cross-listing to examine whether there are differences between US-only listed firms and those t
Problem: The Milky Way disk consists of two distinct components, the thin and thick disk, each with unique kinematical, elemental, and age-related properties. Among all the properties considered, age stands out as the only one that does not exhibit significant overlap, thereby offering clearer separation between the populations. Stellar ages, determined through isochrone fitting, are reliable main
Purpose: This thesis analyses and assesses how companies in Germany’s DAX 40 demonstrate their adherence to the UN Sustainable Development Goals. It evaluates whether these disclosures are mainly substantive, indicating proper strategic integration, or symbolic, aimed primarily at enhancing reputation, and compares their reporting quality to previous international research. Methodology: This rese
The demand for plant-based meat analogues (PBMAs) continues to rise, fuelled by environmental and health motivations. However, their nutritional quality remains a concern due to the presence of anti-nutritional factors (ANFs) such as phytic acid (PA), which can reduce the bioavailability of essential minerals and hinder protein digestibility. Additionally, sensory limitations and the frequent use
Infrastruktursektorn är beroende av detaljerad information om markförhållanden för att säkerställa en miljömässig och socialt hållbar utveckling. Nuvarande hydrogeologiska metoder, såsom invasiv borrning, är ofta kostsamma, tidskrävande och begränsade i geografisk täckning av ett undersökningsområde. Direktströms resistivitet och tidsdomän-inducerad polarisering (DCIP) erbjuder ett icke-invasivt, The infrastructure sector relies on detailed subsurface data for environmentally and socially responsible development. Traditional hydrogeological methods, like invasive drilling, are costly, time-consuming, and limited in spatial coverage. Direct Current resistivity and time-domain Induced Polarization (DCIP) offer a non-invasive, cost-effective and spatially extensive alternative for estimating
This thesis addresses the need for robust price forecasting in the volatile Rare Earth Elements (REEs) markets. With a specific focus on neodymium, given it is the most utilized REEs, we investigate how feature selection can be effectively performed to guide REE price forecasting by proposing and evaluating three distinct methodologies: Adaptive Lasso, Post-Double Selection (PDS), and an integrate
The rapid emergence of generative artificial intelligence has sparked both excitement and concern across creative industries. The thesis examines how professionals in the Swedish gaming industry perceive Gen-AI’s role in creative workflows. Using a qualitative approach grounded in semi-structured interviews, an extended Technology Acceptance Model is ap-plied to explore themes such as usefulness,
Carmilla (1872) is a foundational gothic novella that explores female intimacy, monstrosity, and transgression within a patriarchal context. While widely recognized for its depiction of same-sex desire and subversion of Victorian gender norms, the story also reveals a deeper network of violence that sustains social and gendered hierarchies. However, critical attention has often focused more on Car
Geospatial data analysis plays a critical role in a wide range of applications, from urban planning and environmental monitoring to disaster response and infrastructure management. However, it remains technically demanding and largely inaccessible to non-experts due to the complexity of geospatial data structures, domain-specific tools, and the need for advanced programming knowledge. A particular
A gamma-charged particle coincidence spectroscopy setup was constructed, with the intended purpose of analysing future aerosol samples from the ESS. The setup consists of a Compex composite high purity germanium (HPGe) detector, with a bismuth-germanate oxide (BGO) anti-Compton shield (ACS), and a single-sided silicon strip detector (SSD). A 207Bi sample was used to evaluate the performance of the
Pollinators such as Bombus terrestris play a vital role in ecosystem stability and agricultural productivity. Developing methods to estimate key biological traits such as age and weight is crucial for advancing ecological understanding and conservation efforts. In eusocial insects like B. terrestris, age and weight influence behaviour, task allocation, and survivability, but traditional methods fo
With the rapid advancement of electromobility sector, the power density and heat generation of electronic chips is significantly rising. Due to its higher load and lower thermal mass, electronics chips in BEV inverters, such as MOSFETs, are increasingly susceptible to rapid temperature rises. Through the utilization of latent heat absorption, Phase Change Material (PCM) offers a promising passive
Dwarf galaxies are perfect candidates for studying dark matter due to their abundance in our Universe, low baryonic content and diverse appearance. They are considered as one of the most important probes of cosmological models, such as the most accepted ΛCDM, and are particularly important in the context of evolution of galactic environments. Satellite galaxies and their remnants can give us furth
