Atlingbo Krukmakeri

Mitt på Gotland ligger Atlingbo, ett litet jordbrukssamhälle där landskapet definieras av åkrar, skog och hagar. På Gotland, där en majoritet av invånarna bor utanför tätorterna, finns en levande landsbygd där små företag kan blomstra. Hantverksyrken gynnas trots det isolerade läget tack vare en stor genomströmning av turister. Projektet är en keramikverkstad intill den gamla lärarbostaden i AtliAt the centre of Gotland is Atlingbo, a small agricultural community where the landscape is defined by fields, forests and pastures. On Gotland, where a majority of the residents live outside of urban areas, the rural economy thrives and small businesses can flourish. Potentially, craft professions are supported here despite the isolated location thanks to a high influx of tourists. The project

The H24LEO project, administered by the Lund University School of Aviation, aims to develop and demonstrate a hybrid proton-exchange membrane fuel cell-powered UAV to aid in search and rescue operations performed by the Swedish Maritime Administration, and reduce

På befintliga lager - Förslag på hur Sundhammars barnkoloni kan anpassas och gestaltas för framtiden

Detta arbete berör ämnet återbruk och återanpassning av en befintlig byggnad i en nutida kontext. Byggnaden som jag valt att studera är Sundhammars barnkoloni, byggd år 1937, belägen invid kusten i södra Bohuslän. Trots att byggnaden bedöms vara en av de bäst bevarade barnkolonibyggnaderna så saknar den skydd, varpå den vid flertalet tillfällen hotats av rivning. Målet med detta examensarbete äThis work concerns the topic of reuse and readaptation of an existing building in a contemporary context. The building I have chosen to study is Sundhammars barnkoloni, built in 1937, located next to the coast in the southern part of Bohuslän. Although the building is considered to be one of the best preserved children’s colony buildings, it lacks protection, whereupon it has been threatened with

Zombie firms and a low-interest environment - an empirical analysis of ultra-low interest rates in relation to the surviving of inefficient firms in the nordic region

This paper examines the relationship between ultra-low interest rates and the amount of zombie firms using panel data for Sweden, Norway, Denmark and Finland over the period 2007-2020 in a multivariable regression model. Specifically, the questions addressed are: is there a relationship between the interest rate and the amount of zombie firms? Could it be concluded that the amount of zombie firms

Being Offered an Alternative to Prosecution: The Lived Experience of General Aviation Pilots and Prosecutors

Background To learn from incidents, it is imperative that people involved feel safe to share their complete unadulterated stories without fearing punishment. Recently, the Netherlands Public Prosecution Service has begun to offer general aviation pilots an alternative to prosecution. Objective Gain insights into the lived experiences of the adjudged pilots and the public prosecutor for aviation an

Stella Artois - Brewing a better reputation

Imagine that it is June 19th, 2007, and you work for U.K’s largest brewery, InBev. That morning, an article appeared in The Argus titled: “City Judge Condemns ‘Wife- Beater’ Booze.” In the article, John Hardy, judge at Brighton’s Crown Court, says the following: “there are keywords which recur all too frequently in cases involving young men and alcohol. They are ‘Stella’ and ‘binge drinking’.” You

Possibilities of Reducing Internal Scrap Rates and Increase Scrap Recyclability of Dilute Copper Alloys from Vertical Upwards Continuous Cast (VUCC) Process

Med det ökande behovet att minska användandet av fossila bränslen så är metaller ett utmärkt alternativ för att elektrifiera samhället. Koppar är en av de viktigaste metallerna på grund av de stora mängder som förekommer naturligt på vår planet. Det är även på grund av dess utmärkta egenskaper. Sedan koppar upptäckes för flera århundraden sedan har användandet fortsatt att öka. Koppar och dess egeCopper and copper alloys are important material systems for the electrification of society. The high workability of the materials makes them appropriate in numerous different applications which require highly conductive properties. One main advantage of Cu and Cu-bearing alloys is the eminent ability to be repeatedly recycled without losing the advantageous properties. This raises the question whe

Embedded ECU dual CPU Emulator

This thesis project implements a virtual environment that emulates an em- bedded Electronic Control Unit (ECU) with a dual CPU in Quick EMUlator (QEMU). Hardware rigs are an expensive and time-consuming bottleneck in the development process. To obtain an edge over rig hardware, we need to execute software verication, which allows us to improve performance without compro- mising hardware. Emulation

Attractiveness of Private Equity & Venture Capital Investments

This paper uses a cross-country study to understand how national culture affects institutional private equity and venture capital investments in Europe, using previous works of Groh, Liechtenstein and Lieser (2010) and Hofstede, Hofstede and Minkov (2011). We argue that national culture might affect capital allocation and that this parameter is often missing in the contemporary discourse on the dr

Improving proactive supply risk management of a large purchasing department

The topic of Supply Risk Management (SRM) has increased in relevance as the need for a resilient supply chain has become more prevalent. There have been numerous articles published throughout the years regarding SRM and Supply Chain Risk Management (SCRM), including articles with case studies of global OEM’s. Company A, a global OEM located in Sweden, has realised that proactive SRM is a topic of

The impact of "loose " restrictions in Sweden during the COVID-19 virus , compared to the neighbouring Scandinavian countries.

Covid-19 is the first type of coronavirus that was characterized as a pandemic, year 2020. The prevention methods to minimize the spread of the corona virus did vary somehow between the countries. Sweden followed a somewhat different strategy for dealing with Covid-19 than its neighbouring countries in the Scandinavian region; Denmark, Finland, and Norway. In this paper, we will compare the outcom

The sources and dynamics of technological change in cassava farming in Ghana

Farm size expansion in some countries in Sub-Saharan Africa, including in Ghana, is a recent phenomenon, and is indicative of the agricultural transformation process taking place in the region. Technology use and adoption level is an integral and complex part of this process, which is studied in relation to the expanding farm sizes and agricultural transformation in this study. It follows an explo

Victoria's Secret: The Way Back?

In 2022 Victoria's Secret had a brand awareness of 85% in the United States, a feat that any marketeer would perceive as great or even amazing. However, while brand awareness was high, revenues had been on a constant decline since 2017, continuing to show signs of uncertainty for the corporation. It is possible that the history of the brand explains where it strayed from the path to success t

Undervisning och bedömning i sång. En kvalitativ intervjustudie om sång i högstadiet i relation till Lgr11 och Lgr22 samt lärares metoder för elever i sångsvårigheter

Studiens syfte är att bidra med kunskap kring musiklärares undervisning och bedömning av sång i årskurs 7–9 i förhållande till den nya läroplanen Lgr22, samt de metoder lärare använder för att hjälpa elever i sångsvårigheter att nå måluppfyllelse och utveckla tilltro till sin förmåga att sjunga; metoder som lärarens uppmuntran, kommunikation och verktyg för tonträffning. Olika perspektiv lyfts fra

The role of word accents in semantic processing in South Swedish

Prosodic cues can aid speech processing by adding semantic information in lexical tones or functional information in intonational tones. Swedish word accents are considered to have stronger grammatical functions than semantic roles, although they are shaped by both lexical and intonational information structure. This has been repeatedly observed by studies using event-related potentials (ERPs), fu

Dränerade våtmarker och deras växthusgasutsläpp - En kartläggning av organogena jordar i Kristianstad kommun

Torrlagda våtmarker släpper ut mer växthusgaser än alla personbilar i Kristianstad kommun. Mer än 70 procent av utsläppen kan undvikas genom att marken läggs under vatten igen. Det visar resultaten från denna studie som har kartlagt dränerade våtmarker i kommunen. Men det finns tydliga intressekonflikter då merparten av utsläppen kommer från jordbruksmark. På nationell nivå är det likadant: uEmissions from drained organic soils is a big contributor to global warming and corresponds to 5% of global and 25% of Sweden’s greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. This study uses a GIS-analysis to map the organic soils in Kristianstad municipality in Sweden and what land use occurs on these soils. The purpose of the study is to provide the municipality with information when investigating the possibi

High tide flooding in near future projections for popular travel destinations

High tide flooding (HTF) is becoming more common in coastal regions of the United States, although this phenomenon remains largely undocumented in published literature from other parts of the world. No matter the emissions scenario over the next decades, sea level rise (SLR) is projected to continue worldwide until at least the end of the 21st century, continually pushing the frequency and severit
