Water is essential to human life, health, and livelihoods, and access to safe and clean water is recognised as a fundamental human right. Yet water scarcity remains a pressing global challenge affecting billions of people, with women being disproportionately affected. In Kenya, where around 80 percent of the land is classified as arid and semi-arid (ASAL), water scarcity is a persistent and deeply
This paper examines how the EU seeks to mitigate external economic vulnerabilities and what this reveals about the EU’s prioritisation concerning different types of vulnerability and the external actors toward whom these vulnerabilities are directed. The paper draws on the theories of complex interdependence and weaponised interdependence to distinguish between resource-based and network-based vul
The ongoing urban transformation in Kiruna is one of the most extensive relocation projects in modern history. While the type of great challenges, filled with uncertainties both for planners and the local community exist within most urban planning situations, the Kiruna example provides an extreme, and a particularly obvious case that makes it interesting to illustrate the reinvention of a town ca
Patient-specific fluid-structure interaction (FSI) simulations can improve the understanding of mitral valve dysfunction and support preoperative planning. However, existing contracting left ventricular (LV) FSI models are often computationally demanding which limits their clinical applicability. This thesis addresses these limitations by developing a patient-specific contracting LV model within a
Studien undersöker hur unga nyexaminerade kvinnor upplever den första tiden i arbetslivet med fokus på trygghet och bemötande. Bakgrunden till studien är att nypublicerad forskning visar att unga kvinnor i Sverige mår allt sämre, särskilt när det gäller psykisk hälsa, stress och ensamhet. Stressrelaterade sjukskrivningar har ökat och kvinnor drabbas i högre grad än män. Samtidigt beskrivs övergång
Syftet med denna uppsats har varit att analysera om det föreslagna auktionssystemet i SOU 2024:89 kan utgöra ett ändamålsenligt verktyg för att hantera de brister som finns i dagens regelverk för havsbaserad vindkraft, med särskilt fokus på intresseavvägningen och intressekonflikten mellan riksintresset för totalförsvaret och riksintresset för energiutvinning. Rättsutredningen visar att det nuvarThis thesis examines the proposed auction system for offshore wind power in Sweden (SOU 2024:89) and its potential to address structural deficiencies in the current regulatory framework. The analysis focuses on how the system may affect the legal balancing of conflicting national interests under Chapter 3 of the Environmental Code, particularly between energy production and national defence. The
Frånträdande av förhandsavtal vid förvärv av nyproducerad bostadsrätt har blivit en aktuell rättsfråga till följd av ökade kostnader för bostadsmarknaden. Förhandstecknare har låtit meddelas höjningar av årsavgiften avseende deras framtida bostadsrätt. Bostadsrättslagen innehåller särskilda regler för när det är möjligt att frånträda ett förhandsavtal och reglerar just frånträdande med väsentlig hWithdrawal from advance agreements concerning newly built tenant-owned apartments has become an increasingly relevant legal issue due to rising costs within the housing market. Advance purchasers have, in several cases, been notified of substantial increases in the annual fees for their future apartments. The Swedish Tenant-Ownership Act contains specific provisions regulating when withdrawal from
Traditional football analytics largely evaluates players through on-ball events such as shots, passes and dribbles, leaving the much longer periods of off-ball play poorly measured. This thesis develops a spatial framework for evaluating individual player contributions in crossing situations, where a cross is defined as an aerial or driven delivery from a wide area into the central penalty zone. T
The thesis explores historical document dating based solely on vocabulary. That is, we do not consider contextual clues such as years or mentions of historical events in the classification. Both a probability model based on previous research as well as a modern deep learning model using RoBERTa are considered. The thesis demonstrates the difficulty of striking an equilibrium between complexity and
Damaged or partially damaged pumps can cause issues that at best is an inconvenience and at worst a catastrophe. In order to prevent such issues it is necessary to catch any potential damage as early as possible. One possible solution is to use a sensor that can be placed on or near a pump in order to monitor it using audio. Audio based fault detection is still a relatively new field of research,
This study analyzes how Borås municipality has created a new planning tool with a focus on collaboration, strukturskisser. This study aims to investigate how these are understood by planners who work with the tool in different ways. Participation of different parties is a goal of contemporary planning and is implemented in different ways. The study examines what role the new tool has in relation t
This study examines how transportation justice is expressed and materialized in the urban district of Brunnshög in Lund, Sweden. The study is situated within contemporary debates on sustainable mobility, reduced car dependency, and socially just urban planning. Its aim is to analyze Brunnshög’s transportation system from a justice perspective in order to examine both how justice ideals are express
The maritime sector needs to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and improve the sustain ability of energy systems. Ammonia has attracted increasing attention as a potential carbon-free marine fuel. However, ammonia has low reactivity, a high ignition energy requirement, and a low flame propagation speed, which make stable combustion difficult. Diesel-ignited ammonia combustion is therefore a promisin
Ovarian cancer is the most lethal gynecological malignancy, with treatment heavily relying on platinum-based chemotherapy. However, resistance frequently develops, posing a major clinical challenge that underscores the need for new approaches. In this study, we investigated the phosphoproteomic landscape underlying cisplatin resistance, which remains poorly understood. A parental CAOV3 ovarian can
Denna kandidatuppsats undersöker vilka faktorer som påverkar studenters delning av personlig information på sociala medier samt hur dessa beteenden kan förstås genom Privacy Calculus Theory (PCT), Protection Motivation Theory (PMT), och Privacy Paradox. Syftet är att skapa ökad förståelse för hur upplevda fördelar, nackdelar, integritetstankar, och skyddsrelaterade faktorer påverkar studenters del
Denna studie ämnar undersöka konsumenters upplevelser av AI-baserade chatbotar inom svensk B2C e-handel utifrån dimensionerna tillit, acceptans, design och kommunikation. Studien är relevant mot bakgrunden av den ökade användningen av AI inom kundservice online och de utmaningar som uppstår då mänsklig interaktion ersätts av automatiserade system. Studien har genomförts genom en enkätundersökning
Generativ AI har snabbt blivit en del av organisationers dagliga arbete, men en växande del av användningen sker utanför formellt godkända kanaler i form av shadow AI. Detta skapar en styrningsutmaning där beslutsfattare behöver balansera produktivitetsvinster mot risker för dataläckage, integritetskränkningar och regulatoriska överträdelser. Tidigare forskning har i stor utsträckning fokuserat på
Religious schools in the Netherlands have long been a source of democratic tension. Religious education is protected in the constitution under Article 23, which means that schools can teach based on their own beliefs while receiving funding from the government. However, while some consider Article 23 as contributing to a diverse society, others argue that religious schools do not benefit social
This thesis examines how individuals form and enact political vegan identity through everyday practice, and the role digital media platforms play in mediating that process. Drawing on 12 semi-structured interviews with vegan participants across 4 groups defined by age and length of vegan practice – New Sprouts, Early Roots, Late Bloomers, and The Oakes – the study traces the specific processes thr
Denna studie undersöker hur kunskapsarbetare uppfattar värdet av generativa AI-assistenter i det dagliga arbetet. Genom en kvalitativ fallstudie, baserad på intervjuer och kompletterande enkätfrågor med anställda i en organisation inom livsmedelsindustrin, utforskar studien hur Microsoft Copilot används och värderas i praktiken. Med utgångspunkt i affordance theory och tidigare forskning om värde
