Characterization of the HIBEAM time projection chamber prototype

The HIBEAM/NNBAR collaboration at the European Spallation Source (ESS) aims to discover processes of baryon number violation, such as neutron-antineutron oscillations, and it furthermore includes searches for sterile neutrons, ultralight axion dark matter particles, and nonzero neutron electric charge. The following investigation presents the characterization of the HIBEAM time projection chamber

Automated morphological classification of LMC-like galaxies through machine learning

Understanding the morphological evolution of galaxies requires efficient and accu- rate classification methods, particularly in large-scale simulations and observations. This thesis presents a deep learning approach for the automated morphological classification of Large Magellanic Cloud-like galaxies, using high-resolution N-body simulations from the KRATOS suite. The study focuses on detecting s

Building Relevance Brick by Brick: The Practice of Newness

Corporate brands face a persistent paradox of staying relevant and exciting in dynamic markets while maintaining consistency with their core identity. This thesis explores how corporate brands navigate this tension, referred to as the corporate brand paradox, by examining newness as a practice. While existing literature recognises newness as a vital element for enabling successful change, it prima

Samordning och kommunikation i byggproduktionen

Navigating Distributed IT Projects: Managing Organizational and Cultural Complexities

Distributed IT projects are increasingly common as organizations leverage global talent and digital collaboration tools. However, these projects are associated with elevated risk due to geographical dispersion, cultural differences, and organizational complexity. This study investigates how such factors influence the emergence and management of risk in distributed IT projects. Drawing on Instituti

The Role of AI-Powered Tools in Organisational Decision-Making

The master’s thesis explores how employees in private and public sector organisations use AI-Powered tools in organizational decision-making and what benefits and challenges they experience from using such tools. Further, the study explores how these tools can be leveraged to support better decisions. For this, qualitative research was conducted, where data were collected through interviews with e

Childcare and maternal employment in Germany during the 2000’s

Family policies, including but not limited to the expansion of formal childcare, are often introduced to facilitate the combination of family care responsibilities and paid labour market participation. While a few studies do not yield evidence of a causal relationship, a large body of literature agrees on the relationship between childcare and maternal employment. Thus, this thesis analyses the ef

Upplevelsen av delaktighet för autistiska studenter vid studier på universitet och högskola: en intervjustudie

Bakgrund: Mer än hälften av alla autistiska studenter lyckas inte fullfölja sin utbildning i högre studier. Trots detta finns det få studier som undersöker vad som påverkar studenternas möjligheter att genomföra sin utbildning. Syfte: Syftet med studien var att beskriva erfarenheter av delaktighet vid studier på högskola och universitet för studenter med autismspektrumtillstånd. Metod: Kvalitativ Background: More than half of all autistic students do not complete their higher education. Despite this, few studies explore the factors that influence their ability to complete their studies. Aim: The aim of this study was to describe experiences of participation in higher education among students with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Method: This qualitative study was based on semi-structured in

Reading the Winds: Climate Anomalies and Smarter Commodity Bets

Can climate signals help investors make sharper moves in volatile commodity markets? This study explores how weather-related risk, specifically the El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO), can be used to improve portfolio performance. We incorporate the Oceanic Niño Index (ONI) into a Random Forest forecasting model to capture the complex, non-linear effects of climate anomalies on commodity returns -

When Incentives Misfire

The intended purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between CEO compensation and long-term firm performance within the American banking sector. Restricted stock awards as a proportion of total calculated compensation (RSA%) are used to measure the degree of equity compensation, while return on equity (ROE) and net interest margin (NIM) act as proxies for firm performance. The ded

Cross-Border Data Transfers for AI Development Post-Schrems II: Balancing GDPR and AI Act Requirements

Artificial intelligence (AI) development thrives on global datasets, yet every outbound transfer of EU personal data must now satisfy two demanding regimes; the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the Artificial Intelligence Act (AIA). The GDPR lets exporters rely on Adequacy Decisions, standard contractual clauses, or other Article 44-49 tools only if they can guarantee an “essentia

En jämförelse av antalet angripna träd av granbarkborren i naturreservat med olika trädsammansättning

Det är ingen nyhet att stora delar av Sverige är täckt av skog. Det är också vår största export. I takt med ökade klimatförändringar vill man hitta mer hållbara energikällor, mer hållbara sätt att bygga, eller hållbara bränslekällor. För att klara denna utveckling har skogen en stor roll. Granbarkborren är en liten insekt som gilla att äta, bo och föröka sig i gran. Om det sker en stor storm och fThe forest industry has big problems with the bark beetle attacking trees. This results in that they must log the damaged trees, which leads to an economic loss. For a tree to be able to stand against a big populations of bark beetles, it needs to have a strong defence or be surrounded by other trees via associational resistance. Furthermore, natural enemies to the bark beetle can also act as a de

Modellering av ångsystem på pappersmassabruk

Följande rapport beskriver hur simuleringsverktyget Simscape, en produkt från företaget Mathworks, använts för att konstruera en modell av en del av ett pappersmassabruk. Modellen som byggts upp är tänkt att efterlikna det (ång)system som förser bruket med den ånga och elektricitet som är nödvändig för att driva alla processer i fabriken. Bruket har under en längre tid haft problem med att en alltThe following thesis describes the construction of a model, made in Simscape, of an existing steam cycle at a pulp mill located in the south of Sweden. The pulp mill has had problems with produced steam being wasted, and the purpose of the model was to trim the regulation of existing components to reduce this surplus of steam. The model was built and extended incrementally, starting with the steam

The Pursuit of Transnational Capabilities in Multinational Business Management

The increasingly volatile, uncertain, and complex business landscape in which contemporary global corporations operate presents challenges to management and specifically for leaders of dispersed virtual teams. To cope with unreliable external circumstances, modern multinationals operate under imperatives to develop new forms of transnational capabilities, by mobilizing knowledge resources across g

Att lära sig att lära in

Sammanfattning Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka hur inlärningsstrategier används av sfi-elever och huruvida strategierna skiljer sig åt mellan grupper med olika studiebakgrund. Data samlades in med en kvantitativ enkät som syftade till att elever på sfi gav deras syn på olika påståenden kring sin egen inlärning och hur troligt det är att de skulle använda sig av vissa strategier. Eleverna
