This thesis explores what motivates female cadets to remain in the Swedish Armed Forces, and how they navigate their gendered positionalities within this male-dominated organisation. As previous research on women in the military shows many women leave due to sexual harassment and other gendered challenges, this research aims to find out why some choose to stay. Based on eight semi-structured inter

This study aims to examine the experience of international students from Lund and Malmö universities regarding social participation and loneliness throughout their studies abroad. I conducted qualitative interviews with international students from the universities. After I gathered my empirical data, I then assessed their experiences through Goffman’s stigma theory and Antonovsky’s sense of cohere

Denna uppsats undersöker hur riskanalysmetoder inom flygindustrin kan förstås och utvecklas utifrån ett Safety II-perspektiv. Traditionellt har metoder som riskmatriser, Aviation Risk Management Solution (ARMS) och Bowtie fokuserat på att identifiera och hantera negativa händelser (Safety I). Perspektivet som kallas Safety-II introducerar ett kompletterande synsätt där fokus ligger på att förstå v

Produkter framställda från massa är en del av vardagen. Med produkter så som kaffefilter, förpackningar till mat och mjukpapper. Dessa är ett resultat av trä som behandlats i massabruk för att producera massa, som de tidigare nämnda pappersprodukterna är producerade från. Den moderna pappers och massaindustrin är energiintensiv och står för stora utsläpp utifrån ett globalt perspektiv, ansvarig föProducts made from pulp are a part of everyday life. With end products like coffee filters, food packaging and tissue paper. These products are the result of wood being processed in pulp mills to produce the pulp from which the forementioned paper products are produced. The modern pulp and paper industry is energy intense and on a global perspective a large emitter of greenhouse gasses, accounting

The increasing integration of AI-generated microcontent summaries in everyday use lacks clear evidence of impact on user decision quality compared to simpler methods or original content, raising "AI-washing" concerns. This study empirically investigated the effects of AI-generated summaries of microcontent on user decision quality, considering content collection length, to assess if and

Enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems are far reaching within organisations, making ERP implementations highly susceptible to failure. This thesis investigates how change professionals of a large international organisation perceive the role of gamification and artificial intelligence (AI) during ERP implementation and how it can be used to enhance training. While training is widely acknowledg

Traditional mechanical methods for the recycling of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) fail to produce high-quality materials suitable for upcycling. Alternatives like chemical recycling face challenges due to the high energy demands, concerns, and the cost of specialized equipment. Enzymatic recycling has emerged as a promising alternative, offering a simple process under environmentally friendly c

To Not Submit: A Microhistorical Study of a Young Woman’s Diaries from Helsingborg 1941–1945. This study examines seven diaries containing approximately 120,000 words. They were written in 1941-1945 by a woman born in 1925 in a bourgeois household in the Scanian port town of Helsingborg. The diaries are contextualized through literary theory as a journal in-time. They are also interpreted within a

The aviation industry continues today to be one of the main sources of green house gas emission. In order to counteract this trend, certain solutions are being invested in with one of these being the use of electro-based sustainable aviation fuels. Its drop-in ability and potential for reduction in emissions present eSAF as one of the most attractive and viable alternatives to decarbonisation of t

Examensarbetets syfte är att undersöka användandet av didaktiska metoder för att påverka gruppdynamik i undervisning i högstadiet inom matematik respektive musik.

Two mathematics teachers and two music teachers have been interviewed – individual

The thesis project explores how emerging technologies and Al Voice Assistants can enhance user understanding of electric vehicles by offering more intuitive, adaptive, and immersive experiences. Users often face challenges understanding how to interact with their vehicle’s autonomous features effectively. This project focuses on bridging that gap by integrating interaction design with Al and eXten

The snitch is a well known figure, often associated with deceit and betrayal. It appears in everyday life, embedded in joking jargons as well as in serious discussions of loyalty. Perhaps most significantly, the snitch symbolizes the culture of silence within criminal gangs, breaking the unwritten rule of not speaking to authorities. This thesis investigates how the figure of the snitch, and the a

Syftet med detta examensarbete har varit att utarbeta ett konkret förslag för logistisk implementering av industriella biometananläggningar i sydvästra Sverige. Genom att utnyttja restflöden från jord- och skogsbruk – såsom halm, GROT (grenar och toppar) samt såg- och kutterspån – undersöks möjligheten att ersätta fossil naturgas i det sydvästsvenska gasnätet med 100% förnybar biometan (uppgraderaThis thesis aims to develop a concrete proposal for the logistical implementation of industrial biomethane plants in southwestern Sweden. By utilizing residual biomass from agriculture and forestry, such as straw, forest residues (GROT), and sawdust, the study explores the feasibility of replacing fossil natural gas in the regional gas grid with 100% renewable biomethane (upgraded biogas).

Grön energi, som vind-, sol- och vattenkraft, spelar en avgörande roll i omställningen från fossila bränslen. Men hur hållbara är dessa energikällor sett till hela livscykeln? Inom vindkraftsindustrin är detta en särskilt viktig fråga. Vindkraftsblad tas vanligtvis ur bruk efter 20–25 års drift, och har historiskt sett främst gått till förbränning eller deponi. Inget av alternativen är hållbara efThe growing accumulation of end-of-life wind turbine blades (WTBs) presents a challenge due to their increased usage around the world and complex composite structure. Mechanical and thermal recycling techniques often fail to completely recover both the matrix and the embedded fibers without significant degradation or environmental burden.
