With the vigorous development of the electric vehicle industry, there is an increasing demand for high-capacity, high-stability batteries, and higher requirements are also placed on clean, non-toxic, and efficient battery production processes. The electrode is one of the most important components in lithium-ion batteries. It determines the capacity and overall performance of the battery. The fabri
When acidification of soils and lakes got acknowledged in the 1960’s, it soon became one of the biggest environmental issues in northern Europe. Long-range transport of sulphur and nitrogen emissions caused acid rain to fall thousands of kilometers away from its source. South-western Sweden was one of the areas most affected by acidification. One of the lakes affected is Lake Gårdsjön, situated ab
Snabba förändringar i landskapet kan orsaka stora problem för olika ekosystemtjänster, speciellt när förändringarna sker i utsatta landskap. En sådan förändring har skett i Sverige de senaste hundra åren då skog har planterats på övergivna hagar, eller i vissa fall, även planterats på åkermark. Denna förändring beror på minskningen av djur ute på landsbygden, samt urbaniseringen som sker över helaFast land use changes in the landscape can cause plenty of problems related to ecosystem services, especially when the changes concern sensitive land use types. This type of change has happened in Sweden during the last hundreds of years, where forests have been planted on abandoned pasture lands, as well as on crop lands. This thesis looks at the afforestation in Sweden and some of the possible
“It’s not as simple as one thought” – a qualitive study of parents of young children with the wish to achieve equal parenting and the tension between ideal Sweden is seen as the most gender equal country in Europe and gender equality is a stated goal. Yet there is a gap between ideal and practice, which is seen when focusing on e.g. equal parenting. It is clear that women take greater responsibil
This master's thesis aims to investigate how libraries can continue the work for LGBTQ-inclusion after they have acquired a certification from the RFSL, including how the certification affects librarians and the library, and if that work accommodates what young people from the LGBTQ(AI)-community wants and needs from the library. The material is guided from both qualitative interviews with fiv
Business and management are key in the transition toward a more sustainable world. Educating leaders of tomorrow, business schools bear a profound responsibility to endow students with the right tools and knowledge to successfully manage the challenges of tomorrow. As students and staff recently raised the question if Lund University School of Economics and Management (LUSEM) does justice to its r
In 2015, 19.2 million people have been internally displaced globally in the context of disasters (IDMC, 2016). This is more than twice the number of people who have been newly displaced by conflict in the same period (IDMC, 2016). The small island developing states (SIDS) in the Pacific and the Caribbean belong to the most hazard-prone regions of the world. Yet, the dynamics of disaster-induced di

Målet med denna uppsats har varit att granska syftet och skälen till den lagändring som skedde under 2010 för att generellt skärpa straffen för allvarliga våldsbrott. Vidare har rättspraxis granskats för att se om reformen lett till de eftersträvade resultaten. Slutligen har även en del av den kritik som finns mot regeringens argument tagits med för att visa på att långt ifrån alla är överens om aThe aim of this study was to examine the purpose and reasons for the amendment, which took place in 2010 to generally strengthen penalties for serious violent crimes. Furthermore, case law was examined to see whether the reform led to the desired results. Finally, some of the criticisms that are against the government's arguments were included to show that far from all agree that tougher penal
Under mellanordovicium täcktes paleokontinenten Baltica av ett grundhav och i det temperade klimatet som rådde avsattes långsamt kallvattenkarbonater som kom att täcka stora delar av paleokontinenten. Idag har merparten av dessa sedimentlager eroderat bort och kalksten har endast bevarats på spridda platser i Sverige. Mellanordovicisk kalksten är väl exponerad i Gullhögens stenbrott på Billingen iDuring the Middle Ordovician the paleocontinent Baltica was covered by an epicontinental sea, wherein cool-water carbonates were deposited. The carbonate deposits covered most of the oscandian paleobasin, but due to erosion only a small portion is preserved today. Ordovician limestone at the Gullhögen quarry, Billingen, Västergötland is preserved due to protection from overlying Permian dolerite s
Purpose: This study aims to determine how a company uses sustainability reporting to engage its stakeholders, with a view toward analysing legitimacy theory and stakeholder theory. Sustainability disclosure is a key source for determining whether a stakeholder will keep a relationship with a company. Focusing on pharmaceuticals in the Nordic region yields more conclusive results because the Nordic
This master’s thesis is about cataloguing and information practices. In Sweden, most cataloguing is done in LIBRIS, a national database containing the collections of most public and academic libraries in the country. The people who catalogue books and other types of media in this database work at libraries that span the entire nation. It is a national collective engaged in the joint enterprise of
Cycling as mode of transport can be seen as a sustainable and active mode of travel that can be part of the solution for climate change and urban congestion. Many cities in Europe are now investing in cycling to reduce their carbon emissions and make their spaces more liveable and accessible. Some cities have arguably already achieved an advanced cycling culture where cycling is normalised and wov
The decision by the European Union to enforce the Temporary Protection Directive to respond to the inflow of Ukrainian displaced people in member states has resulted in a peculiar governance system that sets Ukrainian displaced people as an exceptional category of vulnerable migrants. Their stay is temporary, but as it is impossible to predict a date for Ukraine to be deemed a safe country again,
In order for the central auditory organs and auditory cortex to develop correctly, auditory stimulation is required from an early age. Due to this, it is vital to identify children with a hearing impairment as quickly as possible. Apart from the screening performed on all newborns in Sweden, the most common test method is visual reinforcement audiometry, VRA. The visual reinforcement tools used to
När den första hovrätten inrättades i Sverige år 1614 gavs den bland annat i uppdrag att kontrollera de dödsdomar som utdömts i underrätterna. Då en ny och strängare strafflag, kallad Appendix, införts 1608 hade antalet dödsdomar ökat kraftigt. Hovrätten kunde då välja att antingen fastställa underrättens dödsdom, eller leuterera och utdöma ett eget straff. När hovrätten utdömde ett annat straff äAs the first Swedish Court of Appeal was promulgated in 1614, among other tasks, the reevaluation of all death sentences from the district courts fell under its responsibilities. Six years prior to this, in 1608, a new code of penal law, the so-called Appendix, had been put into place on royal initiative. Now, the Court of Appeal could either affirm the sentences from the district courts, or overr
The scope of this work is to help determine the functional improvement brought on by introducing a Bismuth germanate (BGO) Anti-Compton Scattering (ACS) shield system to a germanium COMPEX detector module. The COMPEX germanium detector module is already an extremely useful addition in examining gamma-ray spectroscopy. However, by introducing an ACS it is hoped to compound on these improvements yie
Bakgrund: Operationssalen ställer höga krav på ventilationssystemen för att bevara en luftkvalitet som inte bidrar till att patienter drabbas av postoperativa infektioner som är en av de vanligaste vårdrelaterade infektionerna i Sverige. Ventilationssystemen har som syfte att minska antal bakterier och partiklar i luften. Operationssjuksköterskan har som ansvar att arbeta infektionspreventivt och
Oxygen concentrators are relatively small medical devices that concentrates oxygen from the ambient air next to the patient. They are widely used in low resource settings and in the home health care. For larger hospitals in Sweden and similar countries however, the most common oxygen source is liquid oxygen and oxygen cylinders, delivered from an off-site supplier. Liquid oxygen is often not an op
