A qualitative assessment of the effects of climate change on bridges

Climate change is a fact and the potential climate change impacts on infrastructure are necessary to examine to ensure the safety and performance of societies. The evidence for climate change is overwhelming, the changes have been observed and the projected future based on models indicate further change. Several of the climate change impacts are predictable, though the magnitude of the changes is

Exploatering av jordbruksmark

Att jordbruksmark bebyggs har under senare tid blivit en alltmer aktuell fråga och har skapat debatt kring skyddet av jordbruksmark. Lagstiftningen om detta skydd återfinns i 3 kap. 4 § miljöbalken (1998:808) där det anges att jordbruk är av nationell betydelse. Vidare gäller enligt paragrafen att brukningsvärd jordbruksmark får bebyggas för väsentliga samhällsintressen endast om inte annan mark, The fact that agricultural land is being exploited has become a more present question and has created a debate regarding the protection of agricultural land. The legislation of this protection is found in Chapter 3 Section 4 of the Swedish Environmental Code (1998:808) which states that agriculture is a national interest. Furthermore, it states that land suitable for cultivation may be exploited f

Relevance Lost: Are Johnson & Kaplan’s claims valid outside the U.S.? - A systematic literature review of over three decades

This paper aims to give evidence on the external validity of Johnson and Kaplan’s claims of management accounting having become subservient to financial accounting. A mixed pattern of confirmation of validity has been identified. Nearly half of the countries agreed with Johnson and Kaplan (1987), while the other half did not. The most important identified contingent factors determining the validit

When can superfast fashion be green?

Trots att textilindustrin är den näst mest klimatpåverkande industrin i världen efter oljeindustrin, med enorma miljö- och hälsoproblem som följd fortsätter textilkonsumtionen öka. Inte minst drivet av efterfrågan av så kallad ”fast fashion”, moderiktiga plagg till lågt pris med låg hållbarhet och snabb omsättning. Med begrepp som ”hållbart mode” har industrin istället haft ambition att producera Although that the textile-industry is considered the world’s second most climate affecting industry, consumption seems to never cease. The Swedish start-up project Streamateria provides new opportunities through a distributed production-line that offers bio-degradable garments through 3D-printing technology, with the ambition to meet consumer demand for "fast fashion" The aim of the stu

Potentiella miljörisker med geoenergisystems temperaturpåverkan i mark och grundvatten

Geoenergisystems temperaturpåverkan i miljön – en allt hetare fråga Geoenergisystem kan användas för att utvinna eller lagra energi i mark. Energin från marken bidrar inte med växthusgasutsläpp och räknas som förnybar. Energi kan också lagras, och möjliggör på så sätt hushållning med energi! Utvinning eller lagring av energi i mark kan ge upphov till att temperaturförändringar uppstår i marken. DThe aim of this literature study was to answer whether the thermal impact of geothermal energy systems pose a potential environmental risk to groundwater quality and microorganisms in the sub surface and to above ground vegetation. This study shows that the thermal impact of high temperature systems operating with temperatures ≥25⁰C in groundwater could lead to adverse effects on groundwater chemi

Bullerreducerande beläggningar

Bulleremission från vägtrafik är på många ställen i Sverige ett påtagligt problem. Många fastigheter och rekreationsområden ligger så nära vägnätet att de utsattas hälsa och livskvalitet riskerar att försämras vid långvarig exponering. Att åtgärda bullerproblematiken direkt vid källan med en lågbullerbeläggning är idag en stor strävan på många platser. Detta ef-tersom de traditionella åtgärderna sNoise from road traffic is a significant problem in many places in Sweden. A lot of properties and recreational areas are so close to the road network that the health and quality of life of the exposed are at risk of deterioration. Addressing the noise problem directly at the source with a low noise road surface is a great endeavor in many places today. This is because the traditional measures suc

Sexual Orientation, Motherhood and Pay - The case of the gender pay gap for homo-/bisexual women

The aim of this thesis is to widen the understanding of the gender pay gap by introducing the factor of sexuality. Same-sex couples have legal rights that are relatively new; how does our understanding of labor division and pay change when more data on queer people emerge? This is achieved by using data from the German Socio-Economic Panel (SOEP) from the year 2017 and making multiple regressions,

Simulating Patient Flows in a Cancer Clinic

Planning resources in cancer care is difficult due to system complexity, varying resource availability and uncertain demand. It has become so complex that the analysis of treatment processes in cancer clinics cannot be done analytically [12]. Therefore, in this thesis a model of a cancer clinic is developed using discrete event simulation. The goal of the thesis is develop the model so that it can

How Substances in Agricultural Waste Material Can Be Used as Active Ingredients in Skin Care Products

Växtämnen som har läkemedelsliknande effekter kan påverka huden på olika sätt. Ämnena kan stärka och skydda huden mot utomstående skada såsom UV-strålning och avgaser och därmed bromsa hudens åldrande. Kan restprodukter från växter bidra med samma skydd och potentiellt vara viktiga ingredienser i hudvårdsprodukter ämnade för att hålla huden ung och frisk? Denna fråga besvaras i detta projekt. HudAging of the skin is an inevitable process that occurs throughout a lifetime and exposure to environmental pollutants is a factor accelerating this process. Phytochemicals present in plants possess biological activities known to protect or repair the skin cells and when used in skin care products they can slow down the skin aging process. In this project agricultural waste materials are investigat

Managing Robotics Process Automation (RPA) - A Qualitative Case Study of the Adoption and Implementation Process in the Banking Sector

Firms are investing heavily in adopting and implementing (Robotics Process Automation) RPA, although they lack the ability or understanding to capture the value of such investments.

As a response to limitations in existing IT adoption literature, the study sought to synthesize the often overlapping and complementary constructs of

Fritidshus eller permanentbostad-var går gränsen?

Uppemot 4 miljoner människor har i Sverige tillgång till ett fritidshus. Fritidshusens karaktär är inte beständiga utan omvandling av fritidshus till permanentbostad förekommer. Ett motsatsförhållande figurerar även där permanentbostäder i eftertraktade områden köps för att användas som fritidshus. Speciellt i skärgårdsområden är detta ett vanligt fenomen. Tidigare studier har studerat när en övThere are over 4 million people in Sweden that own or have an arrangement that enables them to freely access a second home accommodation. A second home accommodation is a place for rest and recovery. However, these housing are not enduring. It is common for its owners to change the usage of the house to a permanent residence. This can occur the other way around, that a permanent accommodation is m
