With climate change causing more intense rainfall events and prolonged droughts, freshwa-ter resources are increasingly under pressure worldwide, including in regions such as Sweden where water scarcity was previously unexpected. While water conservation can reduce de-mand to some extent, long-term water security requires alternative and resilient water sources. Wastewater represents a reliable so
The city is a place where different activities take place side by side. The private next to the public, the sacred next to the everyday. For this, a rich variety of spaces is required - fronts and backs, insides and outsides, large and small, common and private. A spatial ecology of rooms, streets, passageways, and courtyards, relating and dependent on each other. Both general and specific. What m
Accurate thermometry is essential for experiments in cryogenic environments, particularly those using dilution refrigeration to reach milli-Kelvin temperatures. In this thesis, the calibration range of a Cernox CX1050 sensor was extended below its nominal lower limit of 1.4 K. In addition, the response of RuOx sensors at different positions within the dilution refrigerator was examined to assess t
Indoor positioning is a challenging problem due to complex environments, signal attenuation, and multi-path effects. A promising approach to this problem is channel charting on wireless networks, where high-dimensional channel state information (CSI) is mapped into a low-dimensional latent space, which preserves spatial relationships in a self-supervised manner. Channel charting can be deep learni
This thesis investigates the possibility of shortening setup times for the hardware testing rigs at BorgWarner’s Landskrona location. All the test rigs in question use the same measurement and control software, NI VeriStand. NI VeriStand is a data acquisition and control software created by National Instruments. This software needs a certain file, a system definition file,to coordinate the communi
The Machine and Assembly Hall in Varvsstaden (Malmö, Sweden) is a heritage industrial building currently being refurbished into office space. As part of the renovation, the historic cast-iron framed windows will be complemented by an inner insulating window installed approximately 500 mm inside the existing line, creating an air cavity and altering the mechanical loading conditions of the original
The decrease in wetland area worldwide has caused serious declines to populations of aquatic organisms. Stormwater ponds are constructed to clean runoff water and act as buffers for floods but are also part of the aquatic landscape. In this thesis I have studied how they can contribute to biodiversity by examining which environmental factors influence benthic macroinvertebrate richness, abundance
Detta examensarbete utvärderar effekterna av vägbelysning på cykling på supercykelvägen mellan Lund och Dalby, med särskilt fokus på en landsbygdsmiljö. Syftet är att undersöka hur belysning påverkar cyklisters framkomlighet, upplevd trafiksäkerhet och trygghet. Studien tillämpar en kombinerad metodansats som kombinerar clock-change-metoden, videobaserade hastighetsmätningar och semistrukturerade This thesis evaluates the effects of road lighting on cycling on the super cycleway between Lund and Dalby, with a focus on a rural environment. The aim is to assess how lighting influences cyclists’ mobility, perceived traffic safety, and perceived safety. The study applies a mixed-method approach, combining the clock-change method to analyze cycling volumes, video-based speed measurements, and s
This thesis examines whether more generous unemployment insurance is associated with greater household portfolio risk-taking in Europe by reducing background income risk. Using a largely balanced panel of European countries, the analysis measures household risk-taking as the share of household financial assets held in equity and investment fund shares. Unemployment insurance generosity is proxied
The democratic implications of environmental policy instruments, is a complex matter of theoretical and normative questions, this paper aims to explore. The purpose is to analyse how different governance tools like regulatory and market-based instruments, relate to central democratic values in environmental policymaking. Rather than treating policy instruments as neutral technical tools, the study
Uppsatsens ämne är hur ”ändrade förhållanden” i kommersiella avtal behandlas inom avtalsrätten. Med ändrade förhållanden i avtalsrätten syftas det i uppsatsen till den situation då en plötsligt inträffad händelse, oväntad och ej orsakad av parterna drabbar avtalet. Om händelser i en pågående turbulent omvärld kan anses utgöra ändrade förhållanden är ett högaktuellt ämne som har väckt frågor om hurThe topic of this essay is how “changed circumstances” in commercial agreements are treated in contract law. In this essay, changed circumstances in contract law refers to a situation where a sudden incident, that is unexpected and not caused by the parties, affects the contract. Whether or not ongoing events in a turbulent world can be considered to constitute so-called changed circumstances is a
Blue carbon, defined as carbon fixed by marine plants, has gained attention as a climate change mitigation strategy. Coastal ecosystems play an important role in blue carbon storage due to their high carbon burial rates. Although the dynamics of the partial pressure of CO2 in seawater (pCO2) are closely related to blue carbon processes, studies investigating pCO2 variability in coastal areas remai
Understanding the physical properties and flow behaviour of foods is essential for designing reliable processing equipment. In this thesis, the rheological properties and flow behaviour of Pasta Filata cheese are investigated to improve the understanding of the flow-distribution inside a Tetra Pak Cheese Extruder. Uneven flow-rates have been observed during production, which lead to inconsistent d
Trots väldokumenterade fysiska och psykiska hälsofördelar med fysisk aktivitet hos ungdomar uppnår många av Sveriges ungdomar inte rekommendationerna att röra på sig minst 60 minuter som dagen. Föreningsidrotten spelar en viktig roll i att främja ett aktivt liv men allt fler ungdomar väljer att sluta med sin idrott i tidiga tonåren. Syftet med denna kvalitativa studie var att undersöka idrotts- oc
Bakgrund: Det främre korsbandet (ACL) har en betydelsefull roll för stabilitet i knäleden, dessvärre är det ett högt antal som drabbas av en ACL-skada. Skadan sker oftast i samband med hög energi och idrottsutövning. Rehabiliteringen efter en ACL-skada är krävande, oavsett vilken behandling som väljs. Dessutom kan det medföra att tidigare funktionella förmåga inte återupptas. Den posturala oriente
Bakgrund: I dagens samhälle är det cirka 80% av världens ungdomar och 30% av vuxna som inte når upp till de krav som WHO och FYSS rekommenderar för en god hälsa. Den tekniska utvecklingen i vårt samhälle ökar snabbt och gör att tillgången på elektroniska enheter blir enklare och skärmtiden ökar. Studier visar att ökad skärmtid är associerat med fysisk inaktivitet, ökat stillasittande, ogynnsamma k
Bakgrund: Hippoterapi och hästsimulator har vuxit fram som kompletterande interventioner vid neurologisk rehabilitering genom att utnyttja hästens eller simulatorns tredimensionella rörelsemönster. Tidigare forskning pekar generellt på förbättrad balans, gång, grovmotorik och funktionsförmåga vid flera neurologiska tillstånd. Den optimala behandlingsdosen för att uppnå önskade och varaktiga effekt
