An archaeological excavation made within contract archaeology almost invariably means that the site is destroyed. This means that the documentation, which can be seen as the site’s remaining archive, is extremely important. In this master’s thesis the written digital documentation from eight excavations made within Swedish contract archaeology between 2000 and 2013 is examined using the technique
Natural capital has emerged as the dominant response to revaluing nature in the context of deepening ecological degradation. The belief is that we make the contribution of nature to our well-being visible by seeing it as a form of capital alongside human-produced capitals. This would, it is assumed, help correct the observed imbalances between the capitals and prevent further ecological destructio
Objective: Based on the theoretical model of post-traumatic growth (PTG) and the Positive Memory-PTSD model, this study aims to investigate the main and moderating effect of different characteristics of positive memory on the mediating effect of deliberate rumination on the relationship between event centrality and PTG of emerging adults during the COVID-19 pandemic. Method: 253 emerging adults (7
As information technology has grown and evolved, so has the need of securing the information. It is important to evaluate both the security of systems and the methods which are used for the evaluation. One method for finding security vulnerabilities in a system is penetration testing. The goal of this thesis is to evaluate some tools and methods for penetration testing. The methods were examined
As Augmented Reality (AR) and Mixed Reality (MR) glasses continue to advance, becoming more compact and user-friendly, certain computationally demanding tasks are being offloaded to edge networks or the cloud. This shift, while enhancing the capabilities of AR/MR glasses, will introduce a new challenge—latency. Latency occurs when there is a need to transmit data to a remote processing unit, perfo
Family centers have undergone a strong expansion for families with children in Sweden and represent a large part of the health promotion and prevention work. At the same time, difficulties are described in reaching target groups such as foreign-born parents, parents with a lack of trust in social services, parents with mental illness, or disabilities, and co-parents. The purpose of this study was
Den svenska byggbranschen har de senaste åren varit dynamisk och präglad av en rad utmaningar och förändringar. Efter en lång period av högkonjunktur vände trenden mot lågkonjunktur 2021, med minskad efterfrågan på byggprojekt och färre investeringsmöjligheter. Byggbranschen har påverkats av faktorer som inflation, stigande räntor och geopolitiska händelser som bidragit till ökade byggkostnader ocIn recent years, the Swedish construction industry has been dynamic and characterized by a range of challenges and changes. After a long period of economic growth, the trend turned towards a recession in 2021, with decreased demand for development projects and less financing opportunities among investors. The construction industry has been affected by factors such as inflation, rising interest ra
This study examines the challenges Sweden faces in implementing legislation against human trafficking for sexual purposes, analyzing the issue through conflict theory and feminist perspectives. Employing qualitative content analysis, the research identifies and categorizes causes such as demand, misogyny, inadequate legislation, and socioeconomic vulnerability. The primary research questions addre
The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) into Military Combat Decision-Making Processes (MCDMP) has been capturing the attention of numerous nations and international organisations. This thesis explores the complex realm of military decision-making, often marked by high-stakes situations and time constraints, which can lead to cognitive biases and heuristic-driven errors. Adding new technol
In Sweden, a prevalent topic of discussion revolves around the challenges faced by immigrants when attempting to integrate into the Swedish labor market. The aim of this study was therefore to examine obstacles and opportunities that individuals with a foreign background face and how their actual identity is affected by the establishment and making a career. Employing a qualitative approach with a
The combined rise on the demand for electrical vehicles for road transportation, technological advancements for Lithium-Ion batteries, and limited availability of rare metals, create a need for sustainable solutions for Electric Vehicle Batteries (EVBs) at the end of their first life. This makes companies rethink on how to deal with the increased complexity generated by the exponential growth of E
En stor del av unga vuxnas liv kretsar kring kärleksrelationer. Monogami är fortsatt normen men det finns rum för andra relationsformer att växa fram såsom polyamori, vilket har blivit vanligare i samhället. Samtidigt som majoriteten av unga vuxna vill hitta någon form av kärleksrelation är också frihet en viktig sak i livet. Syftet med uppsatsen är att undersöka vilka idéer som unga vuxna har gäl
Purpose: The main purpose of the research is the overall exploration, evaluation and comparison of the usage and efficiency of corrugated fillers and molded paper packaging solutions in supply chains. Method: The research adopts a qualitative approach using a multiple case study approach using qualitative and quantitative data gathered through interviews, observations, literature, and documentatio
This study aims to explore and analyze the efforts of social workers to facilitate the integration of refugee youth within a municipality's labor market unit. With a mixed methods approach, consisting of semi-structured interviews and shadowing, this study has engaged in a meticulous exploration of the topic at hand. The selection of respondents has been crafted through a combination of conven
This study investigates the potential of urease-positive fungus strains to form calcium carbonate via urea hydrolysis. Besides, we compare the precipitation ability of living and dead biomass of fungus to determine which one has better strontium removal performance. The first hypothesis was that the Sr removal efficiency of living biomass of fungus cultivated without Ca was expected to be lower th
The climate change in northern Europe is not only leading to more extreme weather events but also causing long dry summers. This affects the moisture content of the ground and the vegetation. Causing an increased number of wildfires within Germany posing a risk to the environment, society, and firefighters. Surface fire spread in wildfires can be influenced by several environmental conditions and
The present study investigates the perceptions and concerns of Lund University students as it pertains to their future employment amidst the rapid development of Artificial Intelligence (AI), which is speculated to have a progressive integration in the labor market. Recent studies project both partial and total task substitution in the coming years, which will have a displacement effect on employm
In this thesis, the effective Hamiltonian formalism is studied and applied to two-photon Rabi oscillations in hydrogen. The process occurs when two photons are absorbed or emitted simultaneously. There exist various approaches to model two-photon transitions. In this thesis, we single out essential quantum states using the projection operator technique and solve for the exact dynamics in this ess
Recent social developments have led to an increased interest in borders. Today, borders are understood as highly dynamic phenomena, that are subject to political-territorial and socio-symbolic interaction. The emergence of new interdisciplinary border studies, as well as advances in technological tools, provide an opportunity for archaeology to examine the cultural phenomenon of boundary marking s
The aim of this thesis is to determine what drives the return in cross-border buy-and-build (B&B) strategies, and if the drivers and the return generated in cross-border B&B strategies differ from those in domestic strategies. Drawing upon prior research of B&B strategies and cross-border M&A, the thesis provides an overview of the current studies on value drivers in private equity
