This thesis explores the visual and cultural representation of worldbuilding in fantasy genre video game trailers. The focus is to find out to what extent video game trailers in the fantasy genre utilise visual tropes and cultural representations to establish an identity as fantasy video games. It is well established that game developers look for inspiration in the real world when creating new one
Industrial pasteurisation is a heat-intensive process with significant potential for decarbonisation. This study investigates how open-source Modelica libraries can be adapted for industry, especially for food industry, and integrated to replace fossil-based thermal systems. Investigations are done to evaluate models of heat pumps, thermal energy storage, specifically the stratified tank, and sol
Network cameras observe physical spaces but lack an inherent understanding of the scenes they see. This thesis presents a pipeline for floor and wall instance segmentation from a single uncalibrated RGB image, requiring no scene-specific prior information such as camera intrinsics, depth sensors, floor plans, or labelled floor and wall data for training. The detected instances are intended to supp
The availability of compensatory collective redress for GDPR violations remains an unresolved question. The issue has gained increasing importance as data protection infringements frequently affect large numbers of individuals, while existing enforcement mechanisms often fail to address such harms. This study analyses the scope of compensatory collective redress under Article 80 GDPR and the Repre
Electronic Image Stabilization is a method to digitally stabilize a video feed to remove unwanted motion by transforming the image. The aim is to create a better viewing experience, reduce bitrate, and simplify further video analytics. This thesis explores different algorithms to stabilize Pan-Tilt-Zoom surveillance cameras made by Axis Communications. Many scenarios are investigated, but the case
This study aimed to examine the extent to which social work students expressed empathy toward perpetrators of violence and to analyze whether the level of education and the perpetrator’s gender had an impact on empathy. This study used a quantitative, deductive approach. Hypotheses were formulated based on previous research and theories of empathy. Data was collected via a digital questionnaire di
This study aims to examine how foreign-born women describe their experiences of language acquisition, interactions with public authorities, and opportunities for labour market participation in Sweden. Through qualitative interviews with women participating in Interkultur’s activities, the study explores how their linguistic, cultural, and social resources shape their integration processes. The ana
The transition toward a circular economy within the tourism and hospitality sector is increasingly critical, particularly regarding the management of food waste. While isolated interventions exist, there is a lack of holistic understanding regarding the systemic barriers and enablers of these transitions in localized destination setting. Using the Danish Island Bornholm as a living lab, this thesi
The earth’s resources will run out if we do not start conserving the materials that have already been extracted. Today's production is dominated by linear business models that do not take this environmental problem into account. Circular business models have been developed as a solution to this problem and to encourage companies to make the transition, the EU has introduced stricter legal requ
Land suitability assessments for coffee cultivation can support agroecological planning and contribute to food security and economic stability in many African regions. The study identifies land suitability for coffee cultivation in Nyamagabe, Rwanda, highlighting the significant influence of air temperature, rainfall, and elevation on coffee plantations. By comparing two spatial analysis results,
In 2024, a historically low birth rate of 1,43 children per woman was documented in Sweden, which is the lowest figure since measurements began in 1751. The Tidö government has therefore appointed the state-inquiry Utredningen för en framtid med barn. In the state-inquiry, the declining birth rate is presented as an economic crisis whose solution is a return to a higher fertility rate. In this pap
The EU's Recovery and Resilience Facility (RRF), a crisis response of 673 billion euro to the Covid-19 pandemic, made it possible to reward reforms in Member States for the first time. This thesis investigates whether the RRF can promote structural reforms, in line with the Eu-ropean Semester's Country Specific Recommendations (CSRs), using a principal-agent framework to theorise the RRF’s
Masonry reuse has gained increasing attention within sustainable construction due to the substantial use and the large environmental impact associated with construction and demolition waste. The bond between brick and mortar plays a critical role in both the structural performance of masonry and the potential for future brick reclamation. Strong brick–mortar bonds improve structural capacity but m

The cultural board of region Skåne decided fall of 2008 to reorganize the fundings of the cultural pedagogy. What the reorganization implicates is that the everyday practice of the pedagogues will not be paid for by the region, and instead the pedagogues will focus on capacity building and competence maintaining towards all of those who work pedagogically with children. They will work in five diff
