The purpose of this master’s thesis is to identify and discuss different ideas and methods used by public libraries in order to make the physical library space accessible and important for children and young people. The main question asked is in which different ways a user perspective is visible in children’s libraries development concerning the physical space. Case studies were chosen as method t
The proliferation of NGOs with an international agenda has been one of the most profound trends in international relations during the past years. Their role in the outcome of international politics has however been insufficiently theorized. The aim of this research was to fill this gap by explain how and under what conditions NGOs were able to influence the agenda of OECD in development policies.
The main aim of this master project is to find out whether strain Geobacillus 7349 can produce biosurfactant during their growth by extraction and characterization of the product. The other goal is to optimize the cultivation condition of the strain. This work presents an evaluation of batch and fed-batch cultivation techniques for production of Geobacillus 7349 in shake flask, using DRM medium. T
This thesis explores the potential for collaboration between architecture students and children in the creative process of architectural design, emphasizing how such partnerships can transform spaces and enrich the built environment. Drawing on research that explores interactions between architecture students and children, as well as by connecting my own memories of this area with those of the chi

Lean is a concept and methodology created and developed in the automobile industry. Today it has become widely used in public service organizations in Sweden. The aim of this study was to examine how the Swedish Migration Agency communicates about why and how they have adapted Lean. Furthermore, it investigates how the Swedish Migration Agency in this process try to make their organization legitim
The purpose of this study is to analyse the communication of Apple to illustrate how social exclusion is used to produce fear, and how it has played the role as a means of persuasion in a constructed reality. In the present investigation process the researchers have taken a critical stance. The authors aim at unveiling the structure of implicit means of persuasion in various Apple’s campaigns over
This master thesis is performed in collaboration with Orkla Foods Sweden AB. The aim with this study is to investigate and compare nutritional contents in processed and homemade foods by investigating three selected ready meal products from the product range of Orkla Foods; meatballs, potato mash and pasta bolognese. This originates in a general perception that foods produced in a large-scale indu
A road superstructure consists of different material layers with specific functions that together facilitate the fulfilment of requirements for safety, durability and service life. The design of superstructures is a process that aims to determine suitable and sufficient thicknesses of included material layers. This process takes place with help of dimensioning programs including ERAPAVE PP (Elasti
Efterfrågan på förnybar energi är stor och samtidigt minskar den biologiska mångfalden i en aldrig tidigare skådad takt, med förlust av arter och livsmiljöer. Havsbaserad vindkraft ger förnybar energi och påverkar samtidigt lokal marin biologisk mångfald – negativt och positivt. Havsbaserade vindkraftsparker bidrar till effekter såsom undervattensbuller, resuspension och pålagring av sediment, förThe demand for renewable energy is extensive while biodiversity is reclining with unprecedented rates of species and habitat loss. Offshore wind power provides renewable energy while also affecting local marine biodiversity – negatively and positively. The offshore wind power plants contribute to effects such as underwater noise, resuspension and settling of sediment, seabed habitat loss, reef eff
Renovation of water and central heating pipelines is a very costly and time-consuming process, so a way to prioritize the limited resources between different parts of the systems is very important. The risk for corrosion damage can be assessed from the resistivity of the ground, due to the processes facilitating the metal oxidation also affecting the resistivity, but galvanic resistivity mapping i
Research Question/Issue: On the basis of a dynamic interrelation between the assumptions of agency theory and stewardship theory, this study seeks to make sense of disobedience at the highest corporate level. Departing from a processual view in order to better understand how loyalty plays a critical role in the relationships between a CEO and his/her principal, we propose a conceptualization of th
SI-PASS is an academic assistance program that provides help for students in “difficult” courses, often introductory courses for first-year students. The idea behind SI is that learning a subject is enhanced by an exchange of thoughts and ideas between students. The goal is to make the students become active and independent learners that sees peers as a learning resource. SI-PASS is connected to a
The house sparrow is an important model species for studying physiological, ecological and evolutionary processes in wild populations. Here, we present a medium density, genome wide linkage map for house sparrow (Passer domesticus) that has aided the assembly of the house sparrow reference genome, and that will provide an important resource for ongoing mapping of genes controlling important traits
Starting from next year the technical feasibility of a direct seeding scheme at 30 and 13 nm will be studied at the Free-electron LASer in Hamburg (FLASH). During a major shutdown the SASE-FEL facility will be upgraded and it is planned to install in addition a high-harmonic generation (HHG) seed laser, a new chain of 10 m variable gap un-dulators and a dedicated commissioning beamline for photon
In the age of museomics, the ability to sequence the genetic material from old museum specimens provides an invaluable and often untapped molecular resource. The application of the latest Next-Generation sequencing (NGS) technologies to such specimens allows us to utilise the diverse biobank that is natural history museums. These approaches provide the opportunity to study both extinct or difficul
Title Improving food preparedness in Swedish municipalities from a supply chain perspective - a multiple case study Authors Ellen Persson & Vera Hansen Contribution This thesis has been a complete collaboration between the two authors. Each author has been involved in every part of the process and contributed equally. Supervisor Andreas Norrman – Division of Engineering Logistics, Facult
In today’s business world, organisations must constantly adapt and remain flexible in order to succeed. In the complex situation that organisational change entails, middle managers play a key role, as they are positioned between top management and employees and are responsible for communication between these levels. Middle managers occupy a dual role, in which they are required to interpret change
