As the population increases, so does the need for residential buildings, offices, schools and preschools. The construction industry accounts for about 20% of Sweden’s greenhouse gas emissions. While buildings become more energy-efficient the focus is shifted from the operational phase to the construction phase. The law on climate declaration is a Swedish law, which holds developers responsible for
Segregation är ett föränderligt tillstånd som är komplext och påverkar såväl enskilda individer som samhället i stort. Exempelvis är stadsplaneringen en bakomliggande orsak som kan påverkar segregationen i en stad. För att det verkligen ska kunna ske en förbättring är det emellertid av stor vikt att åtgärder vidtas på olika plan och av olika aktörer. Det ursprungliga syftet bakom arbete är att utSegregation is a changing condition that is complex and affects individuals but also the society. Urban planning is for example an underlying cause that can affect segregation in a city. However, in order for an improvement, it is of great importance that measures are taken at different levels and by different actors. The primary purpose of the report was to study the impact that urban planning h
Brottslighet är någonting som väcker känslor och intresse hos människor, vilket gör det tacksamt att använda brott som grund för nyhetsartiklar. Speciellt grova våldsbrott, som mord, ges ofta stort fokus i nyhetsrapportering då det har ett naturligt nyhetsvärde. Syftet med studien är att analysera hur svenska nyhetsartiklar porträtterar offer och gärningspersoner i mordfall. Vidare syftar studien

The ongoing human impact in form of deforestation, urbanization and intense agriculture is affecting the natural hydrology and our freshwater lakes negatively. Both eutrophication and brownification has seen to increase with the ongoing environmental change which can potentially have large impact on our freshwater ecosystems. Using a mesocosm experiment, this study investigates the individual and
The spread of invasive alien species is one of the five major drivers of biodiversity loss according to IPBES. Japanese knotweed (Reynoutria japonica ) is one of the most difficult invasive species to get rid of in Sweden. Its aggressive way of growth outcompetes native plants and it even alters the soil chemistry around its massive system of underground stems, known as rhizomes. Methods such as h
The wolf topic is subject for considerable controversy in Sweden. Today, wolves are recognized, by the IUCN redlist, as locally endangered and what is more, the Swedish population suffers from ample inbreeding. However, between 2010-2022 license hunts have been allowed on an almost yearly basis, albeit not without numerous appeals. Because the wolf is strictly protected under the European Unio
Syftet med studien är att identifiera kostnader, tidsaspekter och skillnader mellan byggnadsmetoderna för flerbostadshus i betong- eller KL-trästomme. Studien syftar även till att utveckla kunskaperna kring flerbostadshus i KL-träs kostnader och att utreda ifall KL-trä kan bli en kostnadseffektiv byggmetod. Examensarbetet utgör en kvalitativ studie. De tre metoderna som används i examensarbetet The purpose of this master´s thesis is to identify costs, time perspective and other differences between the building methods for apartment building made of CLT and concrete frameworks. This master´s thesis also aims to increase the general knowledge of apartment buildings made of CLT-frameworks costs and to investigate if CLT-frameworks can be a cost-efficient building method. This master´s thes
In the past decades, China's rise has set off a shift from the unipolar era, rendering the South China Sea (SCS) a theatre for revived great power rivalry. In this environment, the behavior of secondary states navigating the heavy seas of the SCS dispute has drawn significant academic attention to the study of small and middle-power strategy. This thesis focused on the strategic response emplo
The global pandemic COVID-19 made it impossible for psychodynamic psychotherapists to continue with in-person psychotherapy and they had to transform their work to the digital platform. There is a research gap regarding psychodynamic psychotherapists experiences of video-delivered psychotherapy which is emergent to investigate since previous research has shown that the therapeutic relationship suf
Tacit knowledge is valuable because of its hard imitability, this also creates the challenge of spreading it to other employees in the organization. This study describes the phenomenon of tacit knowledge sharing (TKS) in project-based engineering organizations (PBEOs) and is directed at practitioners to allow them to improve their role as facilitators of TKS. PBEOs manage research and design proje
The aim of this study was to explore the usage of psychological knowledge in primary school teaching in Sweden. The study is based on APA’s theoretical framework “Top 20 principles from psychology for prek-12 teaching and learning”, and is part of an EU research project aiming to improve the supportive role of psychology and psychologists in school. To answer the research questions of this study a
During the spring of 2020 the world was hit by the Covid-19 pandemic which led to unpredicted and interesting effects in the domestic tourism sector. As a result of travel restrictions and social distancing recommendations there was an increase in visitors to national parks, hiking trails and other recreational areas in Sweden. The amount of visitors to the High Coast trail located in the east of
In the last decade, Indonesia has seen a series of massive social media activism, especially on Twitter. As the activists strive to make their social movement visible on Twitter, they also face some threats due to the uncertainty of Twitter algorithms and potential surveillance. As many scholars have studied the role of social media algorithms for activism, this study intends to investigate the be
Adaptive structures adapt to the changing circumstances in their environment using sensors and actuators, they may for example change their shape to be optimised for a specific load case when that load case is present. The building industry need to reduce its climate impact, low-carbon solutions are in demand. Structures must be designed so that the design load does not cause failure, due to stres
Abstract Hydrogen as an alternative energy carrier has been up for discussion over decades. Perhaps this time, however, the political momentum and global technical context could be advantageous enough for the hydrogen economy to finally materialize. Despite investments from the EU commission up to €470 billion in renewable hydrogen, there are economical challenges in the way of decarbonisation of
This thesis strives to dive deeper within the area of Monocular Depth Estimation, approximating distance information from one single image using deep neural networks. It introduces a thorough evaluation and analysis of state-of-the-art depth estimation models regarding proposed aspects of relevance for downstream video applications, specifically in a surveillance domain. This leads to three custom
