Despite the current recognition and discussions surrounding corporate sustainability, the topic remains highly complex, with significant uncertainties regarding how to integrate sustainability into daily operations. Hence, it becomes increasingly important for managers to develop a comprehensive understanding of how to implement corporate sustainability strategies. Therefore, this thesis investiga

In the mountainous regions of Bhutan and Nepal, post-harvest losses cause significant challenges for producers. Open air sun drying is usually used by farmers to preserve their produce. There are many disadvantages to this method. The Swedish Research Council is supporting a project called Solar Food: Reducing Post-Harvest Losses Through Improved Solar Drying, which aims to create a low-cost solar

The food waste created in Swedish commercial kitchens presents a difficult logistical and environmental problem for local governments. Today all the food waste is collected separately and recycled organically to create biogas, an energy-rich fuel that can be used for both industrial and domestic applications. To mitigate the logistical and sanitary issues associated with large amounts of organic w

This study explores the strategic implementation of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the healthcare sector, focusing on minimizing resistance through effective stakeholder engagement. As AI increasingly influences decision-making in healthcare, resistance from key stakeholders such as employees and management presents a significant challenge. This research investigates the causes and reasons for va

What do people residing in Hässleholm municipality really think about the sorting of their household waste? And do they understand why it`s important to sort their waste? By sorting and recycling our waste, we reduce our environmental impact. And when we do this, greenhouse gas emissions can reduce, which gives us a great environmental benefit. The goal of this study was to analyze the sorting

A significant proportion of the diversity of species seen today are insects and their host plants, and the evolutionary mechanisms behind their radiation have long captured the interest of biologists. The peacock flies of the large genus Tephritis (Tephritidae) use different host plants in the family Asteraceae for their reproduction. There is variation both in use of host plant species and in the

Described as a “paradigm shift” event (Michelson, 2020), the Covid-19 pandemic is challenging all humans activities worldwide. Such disruptive event can be labelled as a crisis, which is described as an episode of uncertainty threatening high priority goals (Sellnow & Seeger, 2013). Despite this critical situation, 206 different relevant elections has been held globally since February 2020 (ID

The usage of Artificial Intelligence is gaining popularity in many industries nowadays, triggering professionals to communicate about these disruptive changes in their industries. One industry has been looked at more profoundly: the executive search industry. Qualitative semi-structured interviews were conducted to gain more insight into the exploration of communicated strategies by professionals

Inom industrin används många typer av värmekällor. Det kan vara öppna lågor, IR strålning, resistiv uppvärmning eller induktionsvärmning. Induktionsvärmningen är en värmingstyp med hög energidensitet, låg investeringskostnad, snabb uppstartstid och hög flexibilitet. Ett serieresonant induktionsvärmningssystem består i sin enklaste form av en växelspänningskälla, en spole, en kondensator och objektMany different types of heat sources are used in the industry. Some of these are open flames, IR-radiation, resistive heating and induction heating. Induction heating is a heating technology that have a high energy density, fast start up times and high flexibility. A simple series resonant induction heating system consists of a voltage source, a capacitor, an inductor and the object to be heated.

Insect populations have decreased dramatically the past decades, with one reason being unintentional pressure from pesticides. Insecticides such as neonicotinoids can cause sub-lethal effects in insects, such as altered metabolic regulation, which can be studied using targeted metabolomics. Although commonly studied using High-Performance Liquid Chromatography tandem Mass Spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS)

This study aims to explore how healthcare counselors in adult psychiatry in Region Skåne work with children as next of kin and the limitations and opportunities they experience in implementing a child’s perspective. The study is based on six semi-structured interviews with healthcare counselors. The material was analyzed thematically with an inductive approach. The results indicate that healthcare

This study is concerned with L3 acquisition in heritage speakers (HSs). The goals are to incorporate HSs into L3 acquisition research and investigate the role of language dominance for predicting L3 transfer. We analyze global accent in German-Turkish early bilinguals, HSs of Turkish, who acquired English as their L3. Twenty native-speaker judges determined accent strength and accent source in the

The systematic errors introduced by triggering a USB spectrometer for laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy equivalence ratio measurements are studied. We analyze the temporal behavior of laser-induced plasma in a nonreacting methane/air mixture and investigate the influence of the dynamics on equivalence ratio measurements with gated and ungated detection. For use of gated detectors, optimal delay

Background: Chimney endovascular aneurysm repair (chEVAR) techniques have been described to manage a group of patients who are unsuitable for either open aortic aneurysm surgery or a variety of standard endovascular repair techniques. The aim of this study was to assess the long-term clinical outcomes of chEVAR in emergency settings for patients with abdominal aortic aneurysms that have complex mo

Despite their geological significance, the thermochemical processes leading to the formation of early carbonate cements remain elusive. To bridge this knowledge gap, we carried out here laboratory-simulated diagenesis on aragonite ooids. They were placed in autoclaves, filled with distilled water, and subjected to varying temperatures and durations. Our results focus on the transformation from ara

This experiment investigated the effect of tin in an amount up to 0·121 wt-% on the microstructure and mechanical properties of compacted graphite iron. Graphite and matrix evolution was emphasised with the help of scanning electron microscopy. The results indicate that Sn in experimental range reduces graphite size. Pearlite quantity would increase with the increasing Sn and reaches over 95% when

Core-shell nanoparticles have gathered much attention of the scientific community owing to their potential applications in various fields including biomedical imaging and catalysis. Predicting core-shell preference1-3 is, however, still largely based on a few experimental observations and limited theorical studies, and hence development of new core-shell nanoparticles is normally built on a trial-

Dietary fiber is considered a strong intestinal protector, but we do not know whether dietary fiber protects against the long-lasting mucosal damage caused by ionizing radiation. To evaluate whether a fiber-rich diet can ameliorate the long-lasting pathophysiological hallmarks of the irradiated mucosa, C57BL/6J mice on a fiber-rich bioprocessed oat bran diet or a fiber-free diet received 32 Gray i
