Denna studie syftar till att fördjupa förståelsen av konsumenters uppfattningar av värde i servicemöten som inkluderar självbetjäningsteknologier i jämförelse med personlig service. Genom att tillämpa kvalitativa forskningsmetoder utforskar studien hur konsumenter bedömer och beskriver olika aspekter av dessa servicemöten samt deras påverkan på individen. Resultaten indikerar att medan självbetjän

För att minska utsläppen av växthusgaser har nationella och internationella mål satts upp som medfört att andelen energi från förnyelsebara intermittenta energikällor kommer att öka. Ett resultat av detta är en mer komplex energimarknad och ett ökat behov av energilagring för att överbrygga gapet mellan produktion och efterfråga i tid och rum. En teknisk lösning som föreslås i Europeiska och Svens

Urban environments are often seen as the opposite of natural environments, with the belief that the built cannot accommodate the natural. However, this is a false perception. Ecological systems within urban environments are of great importance and can provide microclimates and habitats that do not exist in surrounding areas. Yet, this quality is rarely utilized because of the perception that built

Nature-based solutions (NbS) have proven effective in addressing urban sustainability challenges. This thesis focuses on bridging the gap in NbS short-term interventions, scale, and financial barriers. It examines the instrumentalization and implementation of successful long-term interventions from a policy and urban governance perspective, aiming to inspire cities and identify commonalities. The

Det här är ett arbete som undersöker den kritiska rörelse som växte fram och trotsade myndigheters och expertisens råd och restriktioner. En rörelse som mitt under en pågående pandemi tog till gatorna och proklamerade att våra friheter och rättigheter var hotade. Som en följd målades rörelsen också upp som ett hot mot demokratin, men vad ville de egentligen, hur lydde deras problemformulering och

This thesis investigates potential ways to improve the image stabilization in Axis Communications surveillance cameras. The current in-house developed stabilization algorithm, Axis EIS, stabilizes based on gyroscope measurements. We compare a purely gyroscope based stabilization algorithm with a gyroscope-accelerometer sensor fusion stabilization algorithm, image-based stabilization algorithms and

Den här rapporten beskriver processen att designa och utveckla ett hopfällbart motoriserat mikrotransportfordon, som följer användaren, för urban transport. Projektet görs i samarbete med Volvo Car Corporation. Transportindustrin står som en betydande bidragsgivare till växthusgasutsläpp. Som ett resultat görs många ansträngningar för att minska dessa utsläpp och möta hållbarhetsmål, varför många This thesis describes the process of designing and developing a foldable motorized micro-haulage vehicle, which follows the user, for urban transportation. The project is made in collaboration with Volvo Car Corporation. The transportation industry stands as a significant contributor to greenhouse emissions. As a result, many efforts are being made to lower these emissions and reach sustainability

The concept of sustainable degrowth presents itself as a normative response to some of the most pressing socio-ecological challenges of our time. The energy sector plays a prominent role in the degrowth debate, however, there is limited conceptual and empirical understanding of how energy production and consumption might look like from a degrowth perspective and which actors might be compatible wi

The American author and journalist Joan Didion was especially known for her non-fiction that pertinently described the culture she lived in, but her novels also offer a frank and realistic perspective on American society. In her two first novels Run River (1963) and Play It As It Lays (1970) Didion portrays the respective main characters, Lily Knight McClellan and Maria Wyeth, as fragile women who

Brazil has received international attention and investment for renewable energy production, including investments to produce low-carbon hydrogen: green hydrogen. However, green hydrogen requires relatively new technology and inputs are still expensive when compared to fossil fuels. The diffusion of this technology depends on the fulfillment of seven innovation functions. This study therefore seeks

A loop of urbanization, increasing impervious surface in urban areas, increasing temperature, rainfall, surface runoff and flooding, and lack of new spaces have been adding challenges to urban drainage systems for decades. The climate change impacts are exposing the existing vulnerable conventional urban drainage systems to more challenges in the future. A new idea of sustainable drainage syst

This thesis explores the under-recognised yet symptomatic visual motif of two women, a recurring theme within a vast array of pictorial examples. Its primary objective is to construct a theoretical and methodological framework capable of comprehending the multiplicity of images in the form of an image collection: The Atlas of Two Women. This inquiry primarily draws on Walter Benjamin’s concept of
