In response to concerns about depleting natural resources, organisations are developing eco-friendly products and services. This study examines the role of manufacturing industries and services in sustainable resource utilisation, focusing on the Micro, Small, Medium Enterprises (MSME) sector, a significant contributor to global Gross Domestic Product (GDP). Using Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) metho

Libraries of things (LoTs) have potential to create positive environmental and social impact. However, not enough is known about their social impact, especially as LoTs scale. This thesis studies the case of Circle Centre (CC), a LoT in Lund, Sweden and analyzes the social impact of LoTs through interviews and a survey. After understanding the social impact, participants in a participatory qualita

Given the urgent need to address climate change, it is critical to confront fossil fuel dependency, particularly in the Global North. How fossil fuels are spatially perceived by citizens must be considered to better recognize the ways in which petro-dependency has become embedded in urban spaces. This is imperative to understanding spatio-cultural challenges of implementing green energy transition

Introduction: Para sport has during the last decades increased and one of the largest sports during the Paralympic Winter Games is Para Alpine Skiing. Injuries are common among both Alpine skiers with and without disability and to be able to develop preventive measures there is a need to further understand the epidemiology behind injuries in Para Alpine Skiing. Aim: The overall aim of this thesis

Abstrakt Bakgrund: Remifentanil har fått allt större plats i anestesiologisk kontext sedan dess introduktion under 90-talet. Det har genom åren noterats att patienter som får remifentanilinfusion har ökad postoperativ smärta jämfört med traditionell opioidtillförsel (upprepade enstaka doser) av preparat med längre halveringstid. Ökad postoperativ opioidkonsumtion kan ses som en indikator för förhö

Bakgrund: Forskning har visat på vinster för patienter som urtränas från ventilator med protokoll, då vårdtiden i ventilator minskar markant vid användning av protokoll. Detta till trots är det mindre än hälften av intensivvårdsavdelningarna i Sverige som använder sig av protokoll vid urträning ur ventilator. Syfte: Belysa barriärer för användning av standardiserade urträningsprotokoll för patient

Handboken är inriktad på dimensionering och konstruktiv utformning av ytarmerat lättklinkermurverk. När det gäller andra murverksmaterial, sker dimensionering på samma sätt som för lättklinkermurverk. När det gäller konstruktiv utformning av främst byggnadsdetaljer, kan särskilda aspekter behöva beaktas, beroende på murverksmaterial.Handboken har tagits fram inom ramen för utvecklingsprojektet ”De

The harbour porpoise (Phocoena phocoena) is elusive and challenging to study. Recent reports indicate negative population trends in the Belt Sea population, which is found around the peninsula of Kullaberg in southern Sweden. In this study, the driving factors of the small-scale distribution of porpoises around Kullaberg were investigated by use of an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). Over 17 weeks f

This thesis focuses on design, processing and electro-optical investigations of two- and three-terminal photodetectors based on large arraysof around three million n+-i-n+ InP nanowires with embedded InAsP quantum heterostructures for broadband detection. The first part of thethesis work dealt with a general investigation of the room-temperature optoelectronic behavior of two-terminal photodetecto

There is a lack of knowledge about the effects that arise for the Swedes who write or receive a military order that is written in their second language. This essay aims to investigate the effects of writing orders in English instead of Swedish to Swedish recipients and why the navy writes orders in English to Swedish recipients. In order to gain a deep insight into the problem, qualitative convers

Cancer presently represents a significant global health challenge, illustrated by the high incidence and mortality rates associated with lung and breast cancer. Technological advances and concerted large-scale initiatives have yielded vast amounts of cancer data to be used for research purposes. The objective of this thesis is to capitalize on the current state of the bioinformatics field to devel

Kinetic thermal degradation models are vital components for optimization of food and bioproducts processing. Typically, models are fitted to laboratory-scale experiments where vials are heated and held. However, these conditions are highly dissimilar from the thermal processes experienced in industrial production. Whereas fitting kinetic data to industrial-scale production is often impossible due

Denna kandidatuppsats undersöker spelarnas perspektiv i live service-spel, med fokus på World of Warcraft: Dragonflight och modellen Game-as-a-Service (GaaS). Genom en kvalitativ onlineundersökning genomförd bland ett avsiktligt urval av deltagare i onlineforum samlades och analyserades spelarnas uppfattningar om olika spelaspekter, vilket visade en preferens för spelfunktioner och -innehåll som gThis bachelor's thesis investigates the perspectives of players in live service games, focusing on World of Warcraft: Dragonflight and the Game-as-a-Service (GaaS) model. Through a qualitative online survey conducted among purposively selected participants of online communities, players' perceptions of various game aspects were collected and analyzed, revealing a preference for features th

Wide-spread adoption of solar energy is a key building block in sustainable production and consumption and a circular economy. However, as the market for solar photovoltaics (PV) will grow significantly, so will the demand for raw materials and the potential waste from discarded PV panels. Based on the experience of the European CIRCUSOL innovation action project, we review recent experience in te
