Från policy till praktik: ESG som styrningsteknik

I takt med att hållbarhetsrapportering blivit ett obligatoriskt inslag i företagsstyrning genom regelverk som CSRD hade det blivit centralt att förstå hur social hållbarhet konstrueras i näringslivets kommunikation. Denna uppsats undersöker hur revisionsbolagen Deloitte, PwC, EY och KPMG, ofta kallade The Big Four, kommunicerar och konstruerar begreppet social hållbarhet i sina ESG-rapporter. Gen

Algorithmic mapping of sensory trajectories in the hand based on transcutaneous median nerve stimulation

Our hands are highly intricate structures with complicated pathways for sensation and motor control. When exposed to a nerve-affecting injury, the process of rehabilitation is long and complicated, with no guarantee of success. Studies have shown that electrical stimulation proximal to the injury site could provide a way to regain sensations in the distal parts of the hand. By stimulating in diffe

Variability in CoP during running gait

Gait analysis has through previous studies been proven to be indicative of health and useful in monitoring recovery following injuries affecting walking and running gait. There are many parameters to measure regarding gait depending on the desired outcome of the analysis. This project focuses on center of pressure (CoP) data collected during running using a force plate instrumented treadmill (HP C

Characterization of a Particle-Gamma Coincidence Detector System Utilizing Si Strip and HPGe Detectors for Environmental Studies

European Spallation Source (ESS) är en partikelaccelerator under konstruktion i Lund. Den kommer att skjuta protoner mot ett stort “hjul” av Wolfram, för att skapa neutroner till forskning. Hjulet kommer efter användning att bli mycket radioaktivt. En olycka, såsom att kylningssystemet går sönder, skulle släppa ut radioaktivt material som kan spridas med vinden och potentiellt bli en hälsorisk förA gamma-charged particle coincidence spectroscopy setup was constructed, with the intended purpose of analysing future aerosol samples from the ESS. The setup consists of a Compex composite high purity germanium (HPGe) detector, with a bismuth-germanate oxide (BGO) anti-Compton shield (ACS), and a single-sided silicon strip detector (SSD). A 207Bi sample was used to evaluate the performance of the

Unitware (Heritage to Market: Designing a Drink Ware Collection from Studies on Hasami and Nordic Tableware)

This project began with a comparative study of Hasami, one of Japan’s key ceramic production regions, and the ceramic tableware design of Nordic countries.

Through this cross-cultural lens, the project identifies

Fault Detection Techniques for Process Parameter Monitoring in Dairy Milk and Cream Fat In-Line Standardization: A Comparative Analysis

Detecting and recognizing when there is a deviation in process behavior is a crucial aspect of industrial automation. This study investigates one such deviation, a volume discrepancy accidentally introduced during the commissioning of a Tetra Pak Standardization Unit (TPSU). The analysis aims to develop theory for a future implementation with the purpose of detecting this deviation by evaluating p

Multi-view Homographies from Dense Matches

We propose a SLAM system that reconstructs 3D scenes by leveraging dense feature correspondences and planar structures, identified through multi-view homographies. In contrast to traditional SLAM algorithms, our method emphasizes planes as the primary geometric primitive. While classical keypoint detectors such as SIFT typically yield a few hundred matches per image pair, modern dense matchers ca

Investigation of treatment-guiding gene signatures in cancer using RNA-sequencing data

Cancer is the leading cause of death in the world. Multiple different treatment options are available, target therapy and immunotherapy being two. One potential target is Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptors (FGFRs) and there are both available treatments and new treatments being investigated for this. However, only around 25% of patients benefit from the immunotherapy treatment Immune Checkpoint In

Adaptive Reuse of Ventilation System- A Swedish Case Study of Energy Efficient Ventilation System in Adaptive Reuse with a Focus on Circular Economy

Adaptive reuse of existing buildings as a part of the circular economy principle has become a more common approach to promote sustainable development, due to increasing urban densification and environmental concerns. Ventilation systems, as a major contributor to energy use in buildings, often face complete replacement during building reconstruction, despite their potential for extended service li

Modeling False Memories with Conceptual Spaces

The most well researched associative memory illusion (AMI) is the Deese–Roediger–McDermott (DRM) paradigm: a list learning task found to induce false memories though study lists with associated words. Typically, the study lists are composed of the 12—15 most frequent Kent-Rosanoff word-pair associations of a "critical lure". This thesis attempts a different approach to list generation.

The Impact of the GDPR on AI Innovation: An Analysis of Patent Data in Sweden, Germany, and the Netherlands

This thesis examines the impact of the GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) on AI innovation by analyzing AI patent data (2011–2021) from Sweden, Germany, and the Netherlands, compared to Canada and Israel. By using a Difference-in-Differences design with event studies, robustness checks, and supporting descriptive statistics, it investigates changes in both patent volume and subfield composi

Financial Literacy, Coping Behaviours, and Personal Payment Strategies Amongst Young Adults in Sweden: A Cross-Sectional Study

Over-indebtedness is at an all-time high in Sweden. The purpose of this study was to find relationships between financial literacy, the three coping behaviours: problem-focused, emotion-focused and avoidant, and personal payment strategies. A further aim was to find gender and generational differences in this objective. The study is a cross-sectional survey where the participants (N = 2057) answer

Att samverka över glappet - Skolpersonals upplevelser av att ingå i ett kommunalt samverkansprojekt: En kvalitativ studie av samverkan inom delprojektet Mind the gap

Samverkan har blivit en vanlig arbetsform för att möta samhällets sociala utmaningar, såsom den stora gruppen unga som varken arbetar eller studerar, “uvas”. En av de samlade insatser för att motverka denna utveckling är Malmö stads projekt Hållbara övergångar för unga i riskzon och delprojektet Mind the gap. Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka skolpersonal från grund- och gymnasieskolans up

Strategic Policy and Supply Chains Evaluating the Impact of the Inflation Reduction Act on U.S. Imports of EV Battery-Related Products from China

This thesis examines whether the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) has reduced U.S. imports of electric vehicle (EV) battery-related products from China. The IRA, signed into law in 2022, combines consumer-side tax credits with production-side incentives to accelerate domestic EV supply chains. A core mechanism is the introduction of geographic sourcing requirements for critical battery inputs, aimed
