This paper was carried out to find out if using existing risk and vulnerability-analysis can find centers of gravity (COG) and what consequences this could contribute with. Existing risk and vulnerability-analysis from Lund, Stockholm and Gotland was studied. By applying a COG-model, inspired by Eikmeiers theories, on these riskanalysis the result was that it is possible to find COG. Depending on

The last few decades have witnessed the expansion of the role of the Court of Justice of the European Union in the policy-making process, a phenomenon referred to as “judicialization”. This shift of legislative power from the legislators to the judges inevitably has consequences for all the different interests involved. The aim of the thesis is to study the phenomenon of judicialization in the EU

Internet of things is a rapidly expanding area with new exciting devices being developed each year. Traditional Internet of Things devices are usually controlled through a smart phone which can be exhausting and overwhelming with multiple applications needed to monitor a set of devices. This thesis explores an alternative technology platform and a single accompanying application to discover, inter

E-health services are critical for improving the quality of life and accessibility of healthcare. There have been multiple developments within e-health services, but the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic caused a significant increase in the use of these services, which led to faster diffusion of e-health services. A qualitative study was conducted to examine how the Swedish public healthcare syste

In light of the EU’s growing compliance problem and the generalized decline in Commission-led enforcement, this thesis studies the phenomenon of Commission inaction against breaches of EU law, and, specifically, Art. 2 TEU. By focusing on its lack of action against Spain’s non-renewal of the General Council of the Judiciary, a long-standing breach of the rule of law, this thesis aims to shed light

Illegals have been a tool of Russia's intelligence service since 1922. Directorate S is one of Russia's intelligence service's most secret parts, and responsible for the illegals program. Few have insight into the activities and little are known about it. In order for a state's counterintelligence to be able to deal with a security threat, the security threat must first be identifi

Denna avhandling analyserar sambandet mellan intergenerationell inkomströrlighet och socioekonomiska indikatorer i svenska kommuner. Ett särskilt fokus ligger på sambandet mellan den regionala medianinkomstnivån och intergenerationell inkomströrlighet. Dessutom beaktas andra socioekonomiska indikatorer som till exempel ekonomisk tillväxt och utbildningsnivåer, liksom mått på ojämlikhet såsom GINI This thesis analyses the relationship between intergenerational income mobility and socioeconomic indicators across Swedish municipalities. A particular focus is on the relationship between the median regional income level and intergenerational income mobility. Additionally, other socioeconomic indicators, such as economic growth and education levels, are considered, as well as measures of inequal

Reco Port AB is a company that builds folding garage doors and is a part of the ASSA ABLOY group. Reco uses Styrofoam as insulation in their doors and their current solution of cutting the Styrofoam is using a plunge saw and a custom built table to hold the Styrofoam in place. The solution is not ergonomic and spreads a lot of debris of Styrofoam around the workstation. Due to this it was requeste

Title: Estimating the Impact of ESG scores on Firm Value and Cost of Capital - A Quantitative Study Across European Firms Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to investigate the impact of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) scores on firm value and cost of capital across various market capitalizations, with a focus on small, mid, and large cap companies in the European Union. Methodology:

Traditionally hydraulic actuators has been the primary choice in modern submarines due to their strength and reliability. In recent years many commercial and military vehicles have switched to electromechanical alternatives, as they are generally more energy efficient and have superior controllability. These are two attributes valued in a submarine, hence an investigation was carried out to assess

When the Lisbon Treaty was ratified in 2009, the EU achieved a full legal personality. Meanwhile the environmental issue has intensified in its relevance and urgency, and the EU has capitalized on its possibilities to exercise supranational powers through directives and regulations. The central research question examines and analyzes how EU regulations exert power over the Swedish climate and envi

In products with multiple, movable components it is often important to know the position of them. Such an example is to localize the different optical modules used within a multidirectional surveillance camera. This thesis explores the feasibility of using ultrasound distance-measuring technology for that particular application. Various methods and technologies were examined before developing a co

Margin of appreciation och proportionalitetsprincipen är två centrala koncept vid begränsningar av fri- och rättigheter enligt EKMR, med avgörande betydelse för bedömningen om en rättighet har kränkts eller inte. Koncepten kan sägas öppna upp för en viss vingelmån vid tolkningen av EKMR. Margin of appreciation ger konventionsstaterna ett visst utrymme att bedöma nödvändigheten av en rättighetsbegrMargin of appreciation and the principle of proportionality are two central concepts concerning limitations on rights and freedoms under the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR), which plays decisive roles in assessing whether a right has been violated or not. These concepts can be said to allow for a certain leeway when interpreting the ECHR. The margin of appreciation grants the contractin

The increase in contact resistance within battery systems remains poorly understood, despite being one of the primary contributors to battery degradation. This project aims to investigate this phenomenon by modeling the electrical interface as a contact between a pin and a busbar. The main goal is to build a DOE and machine learning framework, using Bayesian optimization to efficiently explore the

Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka hur Donald Trump i intervjuer och tal konstruerar problem kring yttrandefrihet. Materialet är begränsat till tal och intervjuer i början av Trumps andra mandatperiod som president i USA. Talen och intervjuerna analyseras sedan genom kritisk diskursanalys utifrån Carol Bacchis metodologiska ramverk: "What's the problem represented to be?. Det teore

In light of a feminist read of violence as existent along continuums, this study examines how violence against women and girls is discursively represented in Northern Ireland’s strategy to End Violence Against Women and Girls. This is done based on Carol Bacchi’s “What’s the Problem Represented to be” approach to policy analysis, through which two prominent problem representations were identified.

Background The fundamental problem with the pavement marking letter design is dealing with the phenomenon of image distortion by perspective. Because there has been a lack of a systematic way to deal with the problem on Korean pavement marking letters, the outputs have been determined by the installer's subjective design judgement. Ultimately, this causes low legibility. The purpose of this study

Due to the rapid climate change, drivers are now more likely to drive in severe weather conditions than before. In bad weather, drivers have no option but to cope with a very unusual environment, increasing the likelihood that an accident will transpire. Therefore, it is important to find ways to operate vehicle systems more easily and safely during bad weather. In this study, we investigated 6 in

Metal–organic frameworks such as ZIF-8, grown in situ on nanocellulose (NC), have gained significant attention in recent years due to the versatility of the processing route and multifaceted application in the field of environmental remediation and biomedical applications. However, insights into the interactions between NC and MOF precursors and MOF structure evolution during in situ synthesis are
