Syftet med uppsatsen är att undersöka på vilket sätt könsroller och könsnormer tar sig uttryck i realityserien Love is Blind Sverige säsong 2. För att möjliggöra detta har en kvalitativ tematisk innehållsanalys av utvalda avsnitt och händelser utförts. Uppsatsens teoretiska ramverk innefattar teorier kring reality-tv, genus och könets performativitet i reality-tv. Baserat på studiens analys kunde
Detta arbete med titeln “Det mesta jag läser blir en del av mig” – En kvalitativ studie om meningsskapande på digitala läsplattformar undersöker hur användare av de digitala läsplattformarna Goodreads och StoryGraph tillämpar plattformarna i relation till kulturellt och identitetsmässigt meningsskapande. Utifrån kvalitativa intervjuer med tre användare analyserades de medverkandes användning utifr
In 2024, the Namibian government announced the culling of wildlife as a drought intervention measure. The consideration of food security in conservation decision-making manifests the tension in international law between a state’s conservation imperatives and human rights law obligations. Consequently, the thesis explores: What can the law do to balance food security imperatives against conservatio
In cancer cells, when two different genes are rearranged and joined, a fusion gene results and can act as a tumour driver. While many programs to predict fusion transcripts based on RNA-sequencing data do exist, the predictions contain many false positives without underlying genomic rearrangements. With the release of a new fusion validation pipeline to address this shortcoming, we have created a
This thesis explores the electrification of DB Schenker’s collection and distribution (CoDi) fleet at a Swedish terminal, referred to as The Terminal. The purpose is to identify the challenges involved in electrifying the CoDi-fleet at The Terminal and to suggest solutions focused on two critical areas: charging management systems (CMS) and physical charging infrastructure (CI). The end goal is to
“Den kulturella medborgarskapet hos lyssnare av The Joe Rogan Experience - En kvalitativ studie om lyssnarens engagemang” är skriven av Ebba Lee och Elvin Ekstedt och är författad i Medie- och kommunikationsvetenskap vid Institutet för kommunikation och medier på Lunds universitet. Denna studie undersöker lyssnarkulturen som har vuxit fram kring podcasten “The Joe Rogan Experience”, med utgångspun
This thesis explores how the European Union (EU) constructs and adapts its identity as a normative power in light of Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022. Historically viewed as a peace project founded on principles such as democracy, human rights, and the rule of law, the EU’s provision of military assistance and promotion of enhanced defence capabilities have raised concerns regarding
Carbon leakage resulting from asymmetric climate policies undermines the effectiveness of global climate governance. This paper examines whether China’s national Emissions Trading System, launched in 2021, has induced carbon leakage through outward foreign direct investment at the firm level. Using firm-level data and a PSM-DID approach, this study finds no evidence of investment-driven carbon lea
This thesis explores how dialogue functioned as a practice of knowledge circulation within the International Dialogue Project (1977–1988), an ambitious and largely overlooked initiative led by Anne Buttimer and Torsten Hägerstrand. Conceived as an effort to bridge generational, disciplinary, and geographic divides, the project produced over 150 video-recorded interviews with senior scholars from v
An emerging research topic in quantum thermodynamics is the study of entangled quantum heat engines, where the working medium consists of an entangled quantum system. These engines offer exciting platforms for exploring fundamental aspects of quantum thermodynamics, its intersection with quantum information theory and the nature of entanglement in general. In this bachelor’s thesis, the performanc
Biofilms in the dairy and food industry, particularly those formed by Bacillus subtilis, present significant contamination and food safety challenges. This thesis investigates the impact of stainless steel surface properties, specifically oxide layer formation and surface roughness of polished coupons, on biofilm development. Bacillus subtilis SA 22 (NCA 72-52; DSM 4181) was cultivated using a CDC
I den här examensuppsatsen ska jag undersöka de tre europeiska tillsynsmyndigheterna och i synnerhet den europeiska bankmyndigheten som skapades som efterföljare till de rådgivande kommittéerna (också kända som nivå tre kommittéerna) som existerade innan den finansiella krisen 2008. Det europeiska systemet för finansiell tillsyn skapades 2011. Det är ett system som till skillnad från tidigare systIn this thesis I will examine the European Banking Authority and to some extent, the European Securities and Markets Authority, that were created as successors to the advisory committees (or level three committees) that existed before the financial crisis of 2008. Created in 2011, the European System of Financial Supervision was given a greater role and more powers in regulating and supervising th
Understanding the role of conformational entropy in protein-ligand interactions remains a major challenge in rational drug design. In this work Galectin-3C (Gal-3C) complexes with glycomimetic macrocyclic ligands FS435 and FS471 were investigated using NMR spectroscopy. The ligands exhibit similar binding free energies, and calorimetric studies revealed significant enthalpy-entropy compensation. S
During the third long LHC shutdown (2026-2030), one of the four main experiments at CERN, ALICE, will undergo an extensive upgrade of the Inner Tracking System (ITS3). During this, the three innermost layers of the detector will be replaced by a novel technology, where wafer-scale stitched sensors will be bent into half-cylinder shape and placed one on top of the other, wrapping around the beam pi
Oats are common ingredients in many food products. They are valued for their nutritional composition and functional properties. At the same time, oat-based products can develop off-flavours during processing. Lipid oxidation is one important cause of this problem. Aldehydes such as hexanal and nonanal are especially relevant because they can give rancid, grassy, and stale notes. In this project, s
Long-term university–industry strategic partnerships require continuous coordination across multiple activities, focus areas, roles, and governance levels. Using the Tetra Pak–Lund University (TP–LU) partnership as the empirical setting, this thesis aims to design a strategic partnership dashboard for governance support and to develop design-oriented knowledge for shared dashboard use in similar l
Preterm infants benefit from combined supplementation of arachidonic acid (ARA), docosahex-aenoic acid (DHA) and choline, but ARA/DHA-rich oils are highly susceptible to lipid oxida-tion. This project aimed to develop and evaluate choline-enriched DHA/ARA oil-in-water emulsions with suitable physical and oxidative stability. Emulsions were prepared by high-pressure homogenization using two AquaCel
This thesis investigates the application of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) methods to improve carbon footprint estimation for Integrated Circuit (IC) components in automotive Cost Engineering (CE). The work addresses challenges faced by electrical cost engineers at Volvo Cars: the manual, time-consuming process of collecting component specifications, and estimating Carbon D
Microvias are key enablers of next-generation high-speed and high-density electronic products. However, their signal-integrity performance can be affected by manufacturing-induced non-idealities, including tapered sidewalls caused by laser drilling and positional staggering caused by fabrication tolerances. This thesis investigates the impact of microvia vertical geometry and manufacturing-induced
