För att bekämpa klimatförändringarna krävs att fossila bränslen fasas ut snarast. Många av de sektorer som idag drivs fossilt har goda möjligheter att drivas av el från förnybara källor som sol och vind i framtiden. För det krävs dock en ökad elproduktion från dessa källor, och att vi har ett elnät som kan ta emot och fördela den kraft som produceras. Idag installeras mer och mer solceller på hustIncreasing the amount of renewable generation in distribution networks is a fundamental part of the energy transition. Multiple methods exist to increase the hosting capacity in a grid, to allow larger injections of generation and more efficiently utilize existing infrastructure before operational limits are breached. In this thesis, the method studied for this is network reconfiguration. Many dis

The aim of this thesis is to investigate the liturgical practice of giving a newly baptised person a memorial item, which is often at first hung in a so-called “baptism tree”. How are baptism trees used within the liturgy, and how do different priests interpret its role?

Today, a greater proportion of the population prefers a plant-based diet. Due to this reason, there is an increase in the production of side streams from the food industry, which are often discarded or used as food for animals. Tempeh is a plant-based product fermented with R. oligosporus that is commonly made from soybeans from Indonesia. In this thesis, side streams from food production which ar

Family firms play an important role in the global economy. Family firms are defined as firms owned and managed by a family constellation. While their governance structure is different from non-family firms, family firms face similar questions of internalisation as their non-family counterparts. This study aims to determine how non-financial aspects may motivate the choice of internalising in f

Increasing global temperatures have been shown to advance the breeding phenology of migratory birds, not least in temperate regions, causing birds to adapt the timing of other life-history events such as molt. At high latitudes, summers are shorter, and the birds must complete their post-breeding molt in the few weeks available before the conditions in the breeding site become unfavorable. I exami

Vägarna i Sverige är totalt cirka 57 000 mil långa. Av dessa anses cirka 43 000 mil vara tillhöriga enskilda väghållare, det vill säga någon annan än offentliga aktörer så som stat eller myndighet. Vägar har länge haft en stor betydelse ur ett flertal aspekter och det har alltid funnits ett stort intresse av att vidhålla ett gott infrastruktursystem. Bestämmelser om vägar fanns det redan i de äldThe aim of this paper is to improve the management of joint facilities and private roads. This was done by identify and investigat different problems connected to the private road organisations, formed through the regulation of joint facility and associations connected to them. One aspect of the investigation was if the area of included land connected to one joint facility had grown in size. By st

Syftet med vår studie är att undersöka hur betalda samarbeten på ljudbaserade nätverk, såsom podcasts, är kommunicerade ur ett retoriskt perspektiv. Då det idag är ett stort fokus på visuellt och skriftligt material publicerat på sociala medier i bild- eller videoformat, är målet med denna studie att skapa en bredare förståelse för enbart ljudbaserad kommunikation. För att kunna besvara studiens fThe purpose of this study has been to investigate how paid collaborations in an audio-based social network, such as podcasts, are communicated from a rhetorical perspective. As there is today a great focus on visual and written material published on social media, the goal of this study is to create a broader understanding of audio-based communication. In order to answer the research question, a rh

Today, financial technology (fintech) companies implement marketing strategies targeting young and financially inexperienced adults to increase their habits of consumption using credit. Among the services provided by these companies, the concept Buy-Now-Pay-Later (BNPL) is the one that stands out within the context of marketing. Although this is a common concept within an industry, this essay choo

In connection to the Covid-19 pandemic, the global economy suffered significant damage regarding supply chains and the flow of free, open markets. In the aftermath of these struggles, both researchers and the public are debating a potential shift towards moving production sites closer to the market. This development, in combination with the ongoing establishment of larger production sites in Norrl

Omskärelsen som företeelse har sina rötter årtusenden tillbaka i tiden och genomförs runt om i världen av olika skäl. Den religiöst motiverade omskärelsen på minderåriga pojkar är tillåten i Sverige genom lag (2001:499) om omskärelse av pojkar (OmskL). Lagens utformning underbyggs av argument avseende religionsfrihet och vårdnadshavarens rätt att uppfostra sina barn i enlighet med deras religiösa

As the “engine of life”, metabolic rate is one of the most well-studied physiological traits across the animal kingdom. Metabolic rates have been linked to key physiological and life-history traits as well as to large scale ecological processes. For decades, scientists have tried to understand and explain metabolic allometry – the relationship between metabolic rate MR and body mass M (MR = bMa).

“Diversify or die” is a recurring and rather dramatic call for organizations to recruit, retain and manage a demographically diverse workforce, advocated by the business case for diversity, also known as diversity management philosophy.

The human side of mergers and acquisitions (M&A) – with focus particularly on resistance - has puzzled scholars for decades. Still, there is little discussion as regards to how the concept should be defined or understood. Often expressions of resistance, rather than its actual content, are described. What do personnel actually oppose? In this dissertation, the content, process, and context of

The central issue of the dissertation is the place and meaning of the concepts transitional object (TO) and transitional phenomenon (TP) as defined by Winnicott, in a normal psychological context. A group of children were followed from age 8 months to 6 years. A prevalence study was carried out by interviewing parents in connection with the child's (n=147) routine check-ups at the Child Health Cen
