Funding New Nuclear Power with Regulated Asset Base?

The Nuclear Renaissance is a term which describes the increased interest in expanding the nuclear power fleet in recent years, after decades of stagnation in the development of new nuclear power plants. Nuclear power has previously met large political resistance, and although this resistance is decreasing, the problem of how to fund new nuclear power plants remains. The thesis investigates whether

Sensemaking in the Digital Workplace, A Case Study of Organizational Identity Construction via ISM at Tencent

Internal social media (ISM) platforms have transformed internal communication by enabling dialogue, participation, and shared meaning-making across organizational hierarchies and locations. While previous research has highlighted ISM’s role in knowledge sharing and employee engagement, less attention has been paid to its function in shaping organizational identity from a managerial perspective. Th

"En lärare ska ju kunna utstå det": En studie om skolpersonals benägenhet att anmäla våld från elever

Over the last few years, Swedish schools have experienced an increase in reported violence and threats from students directed towards school staff. However, a significant number of underreporting is recorded. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to investigate why school staff sometimes avoid reporting violence from students, despite the obligation to do so. To achieve the purpose of this study

The Carbon Footprint of Protectionism: The Environmental Consequences of Brexit and Trump

The objective of this paper is to investigate the effect of the Brexit referendum and the election of Donald Trump in 2016. These developments, while different in origin, share a rise of political populism, growing drawback from multilateralism and a reaction against globalization. When the United Kingdom left the European Union they also left the common frameworks governing trade, environment, an

Rotation Averaging for Map Merging and Trajectory Alignment in Global Structure-from-Motion

I många moderna tekniker med exempelvis robotar och förstärkt verklighet behövs tillförlitlig rörelsedata och kartor över omgivningen. Detta projekt fokuserar på att förbättra hur enhetens kamerariktningar, i en sekvens över tid, kan finjusteras efter sammanslagning av två eller fler sådana bildsekvenser, som initiellt roterats till att överlappa utan att deformeras. Genom att använda förhållandenMerging of maps, such as 3D point clouds obtained from Structure-from-Motion or visual SLAM, can enhance robustness and expand covered areas in applications like multi-robot systems or augmented reality. When direct data fusion is difficult, an alternative approach is to align pose trajectories. This work investigates the use of rotation averaging as a method for indirect map merging, especially f

Modeling Black Carbon Pollution Sources in Europe using Linear Regression

The aim achieved through this thesis was to ascertain how much the pollutions of black carbon (BC) from each European country systematically deviate from their expected values obtained by inverting a transport model. The model used is based on meteorological observations as well as black carbon values obtained in the past at different locations. It was achieved by fitting a linear regression model

Planerade stråk och spontana genvägar - Fallstudie i Lund

Urban planning has historically prioritized car traffic, often at the expense of pedestrian safety and accessibility. This study aims to explore how pedestrian behavior and preferences can be integrated into the design of more walkable urban environments. The purpose of this work is to identify specific pedestrian behaviors, such as shortcuts, that should be included in the planning of urban areas

What could go wrong? Conceptual understanding and exploration of maladaptation in Swedish municipalities

Adaptation strategies can backfire and cause maladaptive outcomes, yet this is an understudied area in Swedish adaptation work, and a conceptually challenging theme with potential justice implications. The study explored the potential existence of maladaptation in Swedish municipalities in the Motala ström catchment area in collaboration with the FairWater research project, through conducting 18 q

Maxwell term correction at low magnetic fields and strong gradients

Magnetresonanstomografi (MRI från engelskans, magnetic resonance imaging) är en bildtagningsteknik som låter oss avbilda kroppens morfologi och funktion, helt utan invasiva eller smärtsamma ingrepp. En av de funktionella metoderna är så kallat diffusionsviktad MRI (dMRI). Denna metod är känslig för slumpmässiga rörelsen hos de vattenmolekyler som finns i vävnaden. Eftersom rörelserna påverkas av sDiffusion magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a technique that utilizes the random thermal motion of water molecules to probe the microstructure of the tissue. Because it has excellent soft tissue contrast and high sensitivity to changes in the microstructure, it has established itself as a powerful tool to detect and quantify both normal development and pathological processes. Diffusion encoding

Assessing the robustness of AI-generated lesion risk scores acquired under various imaging conditions

Bröstcancer är den vanligaste cancerdiagnosen bland kvinnor. I Sverige erbjuds alla kvinnor mellan 40-74 år regelbunden undersökning (mammografiscreening). Att upptäcka bröstcancer i ett tidigt skede har visats vara mycket gynnsamt för att kunna få effektiv behandling. Vid undersökningstillfället tas röntgenbilder av brösten, så kallade digitala mammografibilder (DM). I dagsläget utförs dubbelgranBackground and Aim: Artificial intelligence (AI) in mammography screening can aid cancer detection. Commercially available AI systems can assign region and exam scores based on malignancy suspicion. Despite promising suggestions, clinical implementation is limited- partly due to a lack of trust among radiologist and prospective evaluation. Inevitably, this leads to the question of how an AI system

Investigating CSF flow in patients with idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus using phase-contrast 7T MRI

Idiopatisk normaltryckshydrocephalus (iNPH) är en neurologisk sjukdom som påverkar hjärnans vätskecirkulation och kan leda till symtom som gång- och balanssvårigheter, kognitiv nedsättning och urininkontinens. Sjukdomen drabbar omkring 1.5 % av 70-åringar, och prevalensen ökar med åldern. Det är en svårdiagnostiserad sjukdom där hjärnvätska (CSF) ansamlas i hjärnans hålrum, vilket påverkar hjärnanIntroduction: Idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH) is a treatable but largely underdiagnosed neurological condition affecting the elderly population. It is characterised by gait and cognitive impairment, as well as urinary incontinence. For the most part, it is diagnosed via imaging and clinical assessments. Abnormalities in cerebrospinal (CSF) flow in the cerebral aqueduct have been li
