Hur kan ett nytt konstmuseum i Amiralsstaden bli en generator för stadens framtida utveckling? Mitt intresse att angripa denna fråga har uppstått i ett debattklimat där inblandade aktörer argumenterar för sina respektive ståndpunkter i lokaliseringsfrågan, men där avsaknad av konkreta visioner gjort att diskussionen nått en återvändsgränd. Med detta examensarbete vill jag med hjälp de verktyg och How can a new art museum in Amiralsstaden become a generator for city development? My interest in tackling this issue begun in a debate where stakeholders argue for their respective positions on the issue of location, but where the lack of concrete visions has led to the discussion reaching a dead end. In this thesis, I intend to utilize the tools and processes developed during my studies to make

Hybrid solutions that combine multiple renewable energy sources, such as solar power and hydro power, are gaining popularity as a means of meeting the growing energy demands while minimising environmental impacts, but also as an opportunity of connecting solar power plants to the grid in areas where this might not be possible unless large investments are made. This master thesis aims to evaluate t

Det har uttryckts oro över ungdomarnas ständiga uppkoppling via sociodigitala teknologier och hur detta kan relateras till en upplevd försämring av unga människors välbefinnande. Få studier har fokuserat på totala användningen av både sociala medier och dataspel; eller har utforskat potentiella positiva samband mellan sociodigitalt deltagande (SDP) och ungdomarnas välbefinnande. Syfte: Den aktuellConcern has been voiced about adolescents’ instant connectivity via socio-digital technologies and how that relates to a perceived worsening of young people’s well-being. Few studies have focused on cumulative use of both social media and gaming; and/or exploring potential positive associations of socio-digital participation (SDP) and adolescent well-being. Objectives: The current study aimed to

Vid första anblick ger Villacañas intrycket av att vara en anspråkslös by i centrala Spanien. Den besitter inte de karakteristiska egenskaperna som så många andra byar i Spanien har; det tydliga historiska arvet, gamla byggnader, små krokiga gator och gränder. I Villacañas är det första man möts av, till stor del, övergivna dörrfabriker och industrikomplex. Byns arkitektur är beige, rödbrun och daAt first sight, Villacañas seems like a dull and unassuming village in the centre of Spain. In contrary to so many other Spanish villages, Villacañas doesn’t have a strong and visible historical heritage with narrow streets and old buildings. The first thing that meets your eye, when entering the village, is an avenue of abandoned door factories and industrial complexes. The architecture of Villac

Under de senaste fem åren har olika ekonomiska faktorer som påverkar bostadssituationen i Sverige ökat avsevärt, med skyhöga elpriser, bostadräntor och en hög inflation bl.a. Läget har gjort det omöjligt för främst unga, äldre eller människor i utanförskap att införskaffa en egen bostad. Samtidigt är landet ett av de länder som har flest ensamboenden i sina städer, vilket är en stor orsak till psyOver the past five years, various economic factors affecting the housing situation in Sweden have significantly increased, including skyrocketing electricity prices, housing interest rates, and high inflation, among others. This situation has made it impossible for primarily young people, the elderly, or individuals facing social exclusion to acquire their own homes. At the same time, the country

Solcellsparker blir både allt vanligare och allt större. I denna studie undersöks hur storleken och antalet transformatorer i en solcellspark påverkar dennas förmåga att leverera el. De rådande klimatförändringarna är en av de största utmaningar mänskligheten ställts inför. Fossil elproduktion är en stor bidragande faktor till utsläpp av växthusgaser globalt. Solceller ser ut att spela en avgöranThe main focus of this thesis has been to examine and compare how the size and number of internal power transformers affects the technical performance (robustness, power quality and efficiency) of a utility-scale PV plant. The technical performance was examined in a simulation environment (MATLAB Simulink), where a PV plant with a fixed number of PV arrays and converters, corresponding to a rated

Study purpose: This study explores how Floating Container Terminals (FCTs) located in the North and Baltic Seas can support the maritime shipping industry's growth while promoting sustainability. As freight transportation volumes rise and sustainability regulations tighten, ports face increasing demands to accommodate Ultra-Large Container Vessels (ULCVs) in an environmentally responsible mann

Klimatförändringar är antagligen en av de största utmaningarna i modern tid, där förhöjda halter av växthusgaser i atmosfären har förödande konsekvenser på jordens livsuppehållande system. Koldioxid är ansedd som den mest utsläppta växthusgasen, vilket har lett till ett ökat intresse för koldioxidinfångning. Ett sätt för att minska de förhöjda halterna av koldioxid i atmosfären är genom koldioxidiWith climate change being one of the greatest challenges of our time, interest in carbon dioxide removal and mitigation has increased, as a way of minimizing emissions. As a result, carbon capture has become a key focus in the industry. One of the most common chemical absorption techniques is carbon capture using hot potassium carbonate (HPC). This process operates at an elevated absorber pressure

PFAS are a group of persistent and harmful chemicals that are widely used in both industrial applications and consumer products. PFAS are commonly detected in the environment and pose health concerns. Adsorption by GAC is considered an effective treatment method for removing PFAS from water. After a certain period of operation, GAC requires high-temperature incineration as disposal method. Another

Environmentally safe disposal of urban waste is a global concern that recently gained a new dimension through the lens of Environmental Justice, with a growing literature showing correlation between the placement of waste facilities and disadvantaged groups in society. This thesis seeks to verify whether landfills in the city of São Paulo are located in regions where socially and economically vuln

Furthermore, the purpose was to foster the role of PR as an agent for change regarding CSR strategies. R

En växande världsbefolkning, politiska regleringar och en strävan att öka andelen energi från förnyelsebara källor har resulterat i att intresset för vindkraftsverk ökat. Winfoor AB utvecklar `Triblade’, en ny teknologi för vindkraftsverksblad som ämnar öka effekten samtidigt som bladen kan göras lättare, billigare och enklare att transportera än dagens vindkrafsverksblad.A globally growing population, an increased energy consumption and growing environmental awareness have made the interest for renewable energy sources, such as wind power, higher. As a result of the increased demand the need for new and improved technologies have increased. The energy production of a wind turbine is highly affected by the rotor blade length, which is limited by the massive dead lo

Methods of analysis include a narrative format that comprise of twelve semi-structured interviews

Pulsed electric field (PEF) treatment is a non-thermal process which has a wide range of beneficial effects in food processing. The application of pulsed electric field treatment relevant for this work is as pre-treatment on basil leaves before the drying process. It has been proven that PEF treatment can significantly reduce the drying time due to the electroporation of the guard cells of stomata

PFOS (Perfluoroktansulfonat)-föroreningar har hittats på många ställen i Sverige och i resten av världen, därför finns det ett stort intresse och behov av att kunna kartlägga föroreningarna med fler metoder än vad som finns till-gängligt i dagsläget. Det här examensarbetet har som syfte att undersöka resistivitets- och IP (induced polarization)-mätningars lämplighet att kartlägga PFOS vid en brand

Background: Knowledge sharing within an organization is one of the main focuses of the knowledge management research field. In today’s globally dispersed business units, and multinational corporations (MNCs), information and communication technology (ICT) tools play an essential role in facilitating knowledge sharing. Previous research has argued the vital role informal contexts as well as physica

While renewable energy output in the World increases, Russia shows an opposite trend, consisting of a highly engrained fossil fuel-driven economy with very little State priority towards diversifying its energy supply. Accordingly, although wind energy represents only a niche market, it is more economically viable to electrifying Northern peripheral communities than connecting them to the national

The increasing demands on the vehicle market regarding cost effectiveness, efficient production and innovative solutions create an unforgiving environment for the suppliers. Haldex has developed Haldex Way, a management and improvement framework focused on lean production to meet these demands. Although lean methodologies are utilized at Haldex, Haldex Way has currently issues with consistency and

Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: Naturkatastrofer är något som Sverige är relativt förskonat från. Massrörelser, alltså markrörelser i jordtäcke eller berg såsom lerskred, slamströmmar och bergras, är däremot relativt vanligt förekommande runt om i landet. Det är dessutom så att frekvensen av den här typen av fenomen förväntas öka i Sverige till följd av framtida klimatförändringar. De områdenRecent studies indicate a widespread but largely overlooked hazard of contaminant mobilisation and transport in connection to mass movement activity into surface water systems in Sweden. Concerns are exacerbated by predicted effects of climate change, which suggest national increases in rates of precipitation, pore water pressures, run -off, erosion and mass movement occurrence. In this study, the
