Bricklaying is one of the most accident-prone professions in the construction industry, with heavy and non-ergonomic lifting being a leading cause of sick leave and back problems. Increased automation is expected to reduce the number of work-related accidents while simultaneously improving productivity. Existing solutions are often expensive and inflexible. This thesis investigates how a pick- and
Freshwater ecosystems are increasingly threatened by persistent chemical pollutants, including per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), which pose long-term risks to both ecosystems and human health. Small streams downstream of urban and industrial areas are often underrepresented in monitoring programmes, despite their potential vulnerability to PFAS contamination. Furthermore, environmental r
Valence is a fundamental yet ambiguously defined concept in chemistry, playing a central role in the description of molecular structure, bonding, and reactivity. This thesis examines the quantum mechanical Veryazov valence formula (referred to as the original formula), which determines atomic valence based on density matrix analysis. The aim of this work is to assess the robustness of this valence
In this thesis, a fault detection and diagnosis system is developed for the Crazyflie 2.1 unmanned aerial vehicle. Different types of faults are investigated and suitable methods and tests are implemented. The system is mainly developed for the lighthouse positioning, but the tests and methods are generic and suitable for other parts of the Crazyflie eco-system. For the faults investigated, differ
Rekrytering utgör en central funktion för hur organisationer formas och hur professionella roller reproduceras på arbetsmarknaden. Rekrytering till HR-roller är särskilt betydelsefullt, då HR-professionen förväntas arbeta för objektivitet, rättvisa och inkludering i organisationers personalarbete. Trots detta finns begränsad forskning om hur rekryterare i praktiken bedömer kandidater till HR-posit
Antimicrobial peptides are of interest as potential alternatives to conventional antibiotics. One ex- ample is melittin, a cationic and amphipathic peptide with strong interactions with lipid membranes. This project studies the structure and behavior of melittin in bulk solution and at lipid membranes of different charges using atomistic molecular dynamics simulations and an explicit water model.
Decision-support systems based on artificial intelligence (AI) are increasingly implemented in everyday societal contexts, including high-stakes domains such as finance, medicine, and law. While these systems play an expanding role in shaping important decisions under uncertainty, a fundamental question concerns how algorithmic advice affects the behavior of human decision-makers. Despite this, mo
This qualitative interview study explores how group leaders within the Swedish Police Authority experience and reason in their decision making in critical situations. Contemporary policing is characterized by increasing complexity, time pressure, and uncertainty, where decisions must often be made with limited information and under high risk. While previous research has largely focused on performa
This thesis explores how contemporary Swedish Jews narrate their experiences of antisemitism. A central aim is to examine if and how the narrative norm of the cultural Holocaust memory – as formulated by Zoe Waxman – is reflected in present-day narratives of antisemitism. To make possible, the study employs a narrative discourse analysis. The findings suggest that the narrative norm of cultural Ho

Bird collisions with overhead power lines can cause power outages and raise ecological concerns. This thesis analyses bird-related power disruptions in E.ON Energidistribution AB’s Swedish power grid during the period 2009–2025. The aims are to analyse the impact of bird-related outages relative to other causes and to evaluate whether bird diverters reduce such disruptions. The study is based on d
Denna uppsats undersöker hur dionysiskt vansinne, med utgångspunkt i det Nietzscheanska apolloniska-dionysiska, gestaltas i Den hemliga historien. Uppsatsen analyserar även hur Backanterna, såväl explicit som implicit, fungerar som en intertext i Tartts roman och hur pjäsen påverkar romanens händelseutveckling.
Detta examensarbete presenterar resultatet av en utredning av ihopspänningen av en packningsförsedd plattvärmeväxlare. Projektets huvudfokus var att hitta en ny metod för att spänna ihop en packningsförsedd värmeväxlare some är mer exakt än den nuvarande metoden. Detta åstadkomms genom att ta hänsyn till tillverkningstoleranserna av de ingående delarna. Andra faktorer som antalet kanalplattor, matThis thesis presents the results of an investigation of the tightening function of a gasketed plate heat exchanger (GPHE). The main focus of the project has been to find a new method for tightening a GPHE that is more accurate than the current method. This is achieved by factoring in manufacturing tolerances of the ingoing parts. Other factors such as the number of channel plates, channel plate ma
This master thesis investigates the feasibility of utilizing Lean Manufacturing Principles, derived from traditional discrete manufacturing to enhance efficiency and reduce waste within a continuous process industry environment at Graphic Packaging Flexibles (GPI) in Lund. The company produces fiber- and plastic-based packaging solutions and faces challenges regarding waste. The purpose of this st
Det förändrade säkerhetspolitiska läget under de senaste åren har skapat ett behov av stärkt nationell beredskap i Sverige. För att säkerställa att landet är förberett för potentiella kriser eller väpnade konflikter har utvecklingen och förstärkningen av det civila försvaret prioriterats. Myndigheten för samhällsskydd och beredskap (MSB) ansvarar för att säkerställa att det civila försvaret fungerThe changing geopolitical situation in recent years has created a need for strengthened national preparedness in Sweden. To ensure that the country is prepared for potential crises or armed conflicts, the development and reinforcement of the civil defence has been prioritised. The Swedish Civil Contingencies Agency (MSB) is responsible for ensuring that the civil defence functions effectively duri

Arbetsförmedlingen har en stor roll i samhället, att sammanföra arbetsgivare och arbetssökande. För att samhället ska vara i balans behöver arbetsmarknaden fungera och Arbetsförmedlingens uppdrag är att genomföra arbetsmarknadspolitik. En mängd insatser och arbetsmarknadspolitiska program finns för att hjälpa både arbetsgivare och arbetssökande. Verksamheten är ständigt i förändring utifrån hur
Studien undersöker hur kvinnliga chefer tänker, förhåller sig och agerar i mansdominerade organisatoriska kontexter, med särskilt fokus på förväntningar kring ledarskap och känslouttryck. För att undersöka detta genomfördes en kvalitativ intervjustudie med abduktivt och tolkande angreppssätt, samt ett socialkonstruktivistiskt perspektiv. Totalt intervjuades elva kvinnliga ledare verksamma inom man
This thesis investigates the use of parton shifting technique facilitated by Monte Carlo methods to preserve causality in relativistic particle simulations, focusing on parton cascade models used in high-energy nuclear collisions. In such simulations, relativistic effects can lead to frame-dependent collision ordering, resulting in causality violations. To address this issue, a parton shifting met
