Jämfört med andra ekosystem som våtmarker eller skogar så har de urbana ekosystemen blivit relativt lite uppmärksammade. Att integrera vegetation i urbana miljöer bidrar till positiva hälsoaspekter, stärker den biologiska mångfalden samt bidrar till sociala värden. Begreppet ekosystemtjänster har blivit allt mer etablerat de senaste åren och det finns en stor efterfrågan på verktyg för att värdera
The objective presented in this thesis is to evaluate Fire Safety on Construction Products within the EU from the aspect of harmonisation. The variations in regulations between countries in the EU regarding Fire Safety may be an obstacle to the free trade of goods and services for Construction Products. The aim is to show to what degree the Building Codes are harmonised in respect to the use of Co
Examensarbetet undersöker möjligheten att låta avbördningskapaciteten – det vill säga sambandet mellan vattennivå och vattenföring – vara vägledande för bedömning av underhållsbehovet i åar och diken. Den potentiella nyttan av en sådan metod bedöms vara hög då den skulle kunna minska frekvensen av omotiverade underhållsinsatser som påverkar vattenmiljön negativt. Arbetet utgår från ett dikningsförThis master thesis project investigates the possibility of using stage–discharge relationships for evaluation of river maintenance demands. In Sweden, the potential benefit of this type of methodology is considered high, in order to prevent unnecessary maintenance activities which are harmful for the aquatic environment. The study is focused on a ditching organization in Höje River in southern Swe
This study investigates the movie Känn ingen sorg (2013) from an intermedial perspective. By applying the theories of Lars Elleström and Irina O. Rajewsky the aim is to investigate how the movie can be understood as a transformation of lyrics and music by the musician and composer Håkan Hellström. My study leads to a conclusion about how both the theory of Elleström and of Rajewsky can be helpful
Vilka faktorer är det som påverkar musiklärares upplevelse av deras möjligheter att undervisa i enlighet med kursplanens krav? Vad behövs för att möjliggöra musikundervisning av hög kvalitet? Vilka strategier använder musiklärare för att undervisa i skolmiljöer där utrustning och andra förutsättningar är undermåliga? Det är dessa frågor som driver denna studie framåt. En vanlig föreställning är atWhich are the factors that affect the music teachers’ perception of their ability to teach in accordance with the syllabus requirements? What is needed to enable music education of high quality? What strategies do music teachers to teach in school environments where equipment and other conditions are substandard? These questions drive this study forward. It is a common perception that classrooms f
The aim of the report was to investigate and compare the effect of horizontal projections along with different spandrel heights between the unprotected openings in the building facade. The effect was more specifically the effect on the risk level in regards to the external vertical fire spread. Furthermore, based upon the performance requirements of the Swedish building regulations (BBR), the aim

Problemområde: Patienter med Borderline Personlighetsstörning (BPD) beskrivs i litteratur som svåra att vårda, och studier har identifierat negativa attityder om patientgruppen. Negativa attityder kan bidra till upplevelser av stigmatisering. Bakgrund: Studiens utgångspunkt grundas i Joyce Travelbees omvårdnadsteori. Studien utförs enligt den humanistiska forskningstraditionen. Syfte: Syftet med s
This thesis studies the use of GIS applications to derive adjustment figures for the terrain factor in property valuation tasks. It aims at suggesting a quantitative approach alternative to evaluate the terrain factor as opposed to traditional methods and current industry practices where terrain is qualitatively judged based on visual observation at site and subjected to individual opinion. In th
In late 18th and early 19th century Britain, a new literary genre called The Gothic was created. It heavily featured architecture and its space in order to create atmosphere and emotional impact. The rise of the Gothic novel coincided with a growing interest in Gothic architecture. In order to gain knowledge about the conception of Gothic architecture during the romantic era, this bachelorʼs thesi

Landfill gas, consisting mainly of methane and carbon dioxides, is produced on waste disposal sites which contain organic waste. The release of the gas to the environment gives rise to several environmental effects. Regulation in Sweden requires that the landfill gas is managed in some way, for example to reduce emissions. The management options are energy utilization or flaring. In a situation wi
Uppsatsen fokuserar på Bangladesh, ett land vars välfärd bygger på klädindustrins import och export. Uppsatsen önskar belysa hur barnarbete påverkar barnen, både deras vardag och framtid. Travis Hirschis teori om sociala band är relevant eftersom den bland annat pekar ut "legitima aktiviteter" såsom arbete eller skola som brottspreventivt. Mitt syfte är att utreda vad som talar för och v
In a society where information is increasingly available through digital means, the performance of Swedish students is at a decline. The amount of students with access to their own computer and the internet is higher than any generation before them. Even though the amount of digital teaching tools increase rapidly many still lack the necessary quality to replace traditional teaching tools. An atte
A change in legislation has resulted in that many of Sweden’s municipal landfills were closed in the beginning of this century. After landfill completion, the oper-ator is responsible for at least 30 years to take action with regard to the protec-tion of human health and the Environment. In contribution Swedish landfill owners are facing increasing demands on local leachate treatment due to a chan
The adverse impacts to environmental and human well-being derived from the past achievements in agricultural productivity and modernised food systems now call for building up sustainable farming systems. Increasingly specialised, standardised and concentrated agrifood systems have evoked both academic and practical interest in enhancing more place-based and integrated farming styles with shared be
