Institutionen för personer med funktionsnedsättningar i Demir Kapija, Makedonien, har länge representerat ett omsorgssystem präglat av isolering. Trots flera års avinstitutionalisering bor fortfarande omkring 60 personer kvar, många med omfattande kognitiva och fysiska funktionsnedsättningar. Detta examensarbete undersöker hur ett småskaligt gruppboende i Bitola kan utformas som ett hem snarare ä
Archaeology and archaeological sciences are inherently spatial disciplines. Thus, it is of no surprise that GIS (Geographic Information System) has found its way into archaeological practice, providing an environment for data organisation, analysis and visualisation. Over the past few decades, archaeogeophysics has become an integral part of archaeological practice. The results of these studie
The present study explored the conceptualization of duration within Croatian-English bilinguals. Two established psychophysical tasks of duration reproduction were implemented to this extent, namely, modified versions of Casasanto’s (2005) growing lines and filling containers task. Participants were either tested with Croatian linguistic prompts or English linguistic prompts. The results showed th
In this thesis, the possibility of cooling small electronic products using new methods is investigated. By improving a base product, different types of methods for enhanced heat dissipation are evaluated. Initially, a literature study is conducted with the goal of analyzing the market and exploring new technology. The literature study is integrated with interviews to gain a more informed understa
Urban water bodies are often affected by multiple pollutants that reduce water quality. Malmö Canal is an urban waterbody with high recreational value and potential for future bathing. However, its water quality is affected by ongoing discharges and historical contamination remaining in the sediments. Despite growing interest in making the canal suitable for bathing, there is no combined assessmen
This thesis investigated the chemical cleaning of a polymeric ultrafiltration membrane after black liquor filtration. The main objective was to evaluate how cleaning temperature, cleaning- agent concentration, and cleaning time affected flux recovery after cleaning. Black liquor filtration caused a gradual decline in permeate flux during the 25 h fouling experiment, confirming that fouling develop
A problem we face today is that the cinema seems to be losing its significance as a venue. Media and film consumption are increasingly shifting towards private, individual experiences at home or on a smartphone. As a result of this trend, the traditional cinema finds itself in crisis, as its classic role as a social space for shared film viewing is being undermined. This thesis examines th
BRICS has gained increasing attention in discussions about de-dollarization and the future of the international monetary system. This thesis examines how BRICS-related de-dollarization efforts have developed between 2009 and 2024, and how their limited effect on the U.S. dollar’s international position can be understood. Using a quantitative research design, the study combines coding of official B
This thesis investigates the development of metal–organic framework (MOF)-modified thin-film nanocomposite membranes for potential PFAS removal from drinking water. The work focuses on how MOF type and loading influence membrane morphology, surface properties, and hydraulic performance when incorporated into a polyamide selective layer. Five MOFs, namely ZIF-8, ZIF-L, ZIF-94, NH₂-ZIF-8, and UiO-66
This thesis explores how project manager competences are shaped by business transformation contexts under evolving organisational capability pressures. In increasingly complex and changing business environments, organisations rely on projects to translate strategic priorities into practice and support organisational value creation. As a result, the role of project managers is expanding beyond trad
This study examines the effects of the 2006 Dutch health insurance reform on healthcare expenditure, prices, the volume of care consumed, and quality. Using a difference-in-differences design with Belgium as the control country over the period 2000 to 2024, the study measures the reform's impact on four outcomes: health spending per capita, a healthcare price index, a healthcare quantity index
The SHREC detector, a cuboid array of silicon strip detectors, was developed by the Nuclear Structure Group at Lund University for use in superheavy element research at the focal plane of the Berkeley Gas-Filled Separator at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory in Berkeley, USA. It consists of six detectors. The main implantation detector, the veto detector and the four surrounding ’box detec
Studien undersöker hur svenska banker hanterar spänningen mellan regulatoriska krav och relationsskapande kundarbete i samband med penningtvättslagstiftning och kundkännedom. Banksektorn präglas av omfattande kontroller och krav på informationsinsamling har blivit en central del av verksamheten, samtidigt bygger bankernas verksamhet i stor utsträckning på förtroende, kundnöjdhet och relationsskapa
Denna studie ämnar identifiera olika aspekter av hur svenska värnpliktiga internaliseras genom den militära socialiseringsprocessen under den militära grundutbildningen. Särskilt analyseras hur militära normer, disciplin, hierarki samt roll- och identitetsskapande utvecklas och upprätthålls genom militära rutiner och anpassning till kollektivet inom institutionens ramar. Studien utgår från en kv
The purpose of this study was to examine how customers perceive the value of agentic AI assistants compared with human sales assistants in physical fashion retail stores. In doing so, it addresses a gap between research on AI-assisted retail, customer perceived value, and physical service encounters. Existing studies have predominantly examined AI in online environments or operational retail appli
In recent years, the utilisation of biogas has attracted attention as an alternative to fossil fuels and as a countermeasure against global warming. Efficient utilisation of biogas requires biogas upgrading, and with technological advances, membrane separation using small-pore zeolite membranes with excellent molecular sieving effects is becoming mainstream. In this study, biogas separation was pe
I uppsatsen undersöker jag hur senmoderna temporala villkor bearbetas i de fyra första delarna av Solvej Balles Om udregning af rumfang. Detta närmas genom en granskning av hur specifika tingliga, sociala och tidsliga relationer etableras och utvecklas i den dag som i romansviten ständigt, om än med variationer, omtas. Hur dessa relationer framträder jämförs kontinuerligt med hur vi i senmodernite
Sheep wool is a renewable biological material with diverse potential applications. Despite its continuous availability and growing interest in circular bioeconomy approaches, it is increasingly regarded as a low-value by-product or waste in most European countries. This thesis aims to identify the systemic conditions that shape the valorisation of sheep wool in Slovakia and to assess how the curre
Denna studie undersöker hur självorganiserade semi-offentliga mötesplatser på Södermalm i Stockholm påverkas av samtida urbana omvandlingsprocesser, särskilt gentrifiering, samt vilka konsekvenser detta får för deras funktion som sociala och demokratiska rum. Studien utgår från kritisk urban teori och begreppet rätten till staden för att analysera hur ekonomiska och politiska strukturer formar til
