This master’s thesis examines similarities and differences in operational work, training, and the use of technology related to Smart Firefighting in Sweden and Hong Kong. Smart Firefighting has been proposed as a response to challenges arising from modern urban development, where data from smart buildings, combined with AI and digital tools, could support fire and rescue services. However, such da

The aim of this project is to discuss how designers can contribute to gender equality and female empowerment in craft-production industry. The study was done as a collaboration with the Indian organization Industree to study methods designers can use to assure that the economic/social balance in the value chain is fair. The organization works with craft-production as a means of generating income a
Introduction: In this thesis, I critically examine three discourses, prevalent within the 'field' of sexual violence in migration. Methodology: Taking a poststructuralist approach, I deconstruct the beforementioned discourses in a threefold analysis. Results: I find, that the binary gender system is still dominating, and that certain ideas about 'men' and 'women', their bod
This master thesis was conducted in collaboration with ateljé Lyktan and aimed to develop a concept for a decorative luminaire for public indoor environments, based on an already established design concept. The objective was to create an alternative to the recessed LED panel commonly used in ceiling grid systems, which often lack aesthetic character and fail to provide lighting that meets visual e
This thesis investigates how Artificial Intelligence can collaborate across the entire product development process, using the case of playfulness through lighting as the design context. The project follows the development of a playful table lamp from early research to the final product, comparing traditional methods with AI-assisted approaches to understand where AI adds value and where human expe
Transverse Resonant Island Buckets (TRIBs) is a promising method for pseudo-single bunch delivery in the MAX IV 1.5 GeV storage ring. In this thesis, a theoretical model of the non-linear optics based on resonant Hamiltonian mechanics is applied to the TRIBs optics. Measurement techniques for characterizing the TRIBs orbit are developed and tested and compared with theoretical predictions and nume
Environmental simulations are increasingly used in urban planning to assess parameters that influence adequate living conditions in densification projects, such as daylight access, noise exposure, wind comfort, and flood risk. These simulations rely on geospatial data and on the representation of the urban environment through 3D city models. However, in current planning practice, simulation result
This thesis investigates whether volatility in the U.S. and the European equity markets influences each other and whether sush cross-market effects improve volatility forecasting. Using the S&P 500 and STOXX Europe 600 as representative indices, the study models volatility dynamis with Heterogeneous Autoregressive (HAR) framework and an extended specification that allowa for spillover effects
This study evaluated the performance of a new lignin-based activated carbon (AC) for the removal of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) from contaminated groundwater from Korsør, Denmark. Preliminary tests using 14C-labeled PFOA and scintillation counting were conducted to compare adsorption capacities of three lignin-based AC variants and a commercial AC (Norit BAE Super), guiding the sele
För att åstadkomma ett cirkulärt materialhanteringssystem och minska växthusgasutsläppen är materialåtervinning en avgörande faktor. Bygg- och anläggningsbranschen står för runt 20 % av Europas plastanvändning och plast är det vanligaste materialet för tillverkning av rör för vatten och avlopp (VA). Det här examensarbetet syftar till att analysera förutsättningarna för ökad användning av VA-rör avTo achieve a circular material management system and reduce greenhouse gas emissions, material recycling is a crucial factor. The construction and civil engineering sectors together account for 20 % of Europe’s plastic consumption, and plastic is the most common material used in the manufacturing of water and wastewater pipes. This master’s thesis aims to analyse the possibilities for increased us
Sammanfattning Den här studien undersöker tekniska lösningar för bräddmätning inom VA SYDs ledningsnät, med fokus på att förbättra driftssäkerheten vid kritiska bräddpunkter. Genom fältstudier, intervjuer och litteratur har olika sensorteknologier analyserats, där bland annat Siemens SITRANS LR120 har visat sig särskilt lovande. Projektet behandlar hur korrekt konfiguration, kommunikationsval och
Dream Away. A Comparative Study of How Fritidsresor and Vingresor Presents the Mediterranean in Travel Catalogues from the 1960s and 1980s I denna uppsats kommer kvalitativ innehållsanalys och bildanalys användas för att analysera hur turismen har förändrats mellan 1960- och 1980-talet. Källmaterialet består av totalt 31 stycken resekataloger från Vingresor och Fritidsresor. Dessa kataloger analys
Nyhamnen, som en gång definierades av industri, färjor och hamnfunktioner planeras bli Malmös nya stadsdel med tusentals bostäder, arbetsplatser och nya stadsfunktioner. Idag står platsen tom, karaktäriserad av stora asfalterade ytor, åtskilda av staket. Platsen befinner sig i väntan, på tröskeln mellan då och sen. I närheten av Nyhamnen finns två materialbanker. En stor del av det här arbetet hNyhamnen, once defined by industrial activities, ferry terminals and harbour functions, will in the future become Malmö’s new neighborhood with thousands of new housings, workplaces and city functions. Today the area stands empty, defined by large vacant spaces closed of by fences. The area awaits in silence, standing on the threshold between past and future. In close proximity to the site, ther
Ever since the birth of the film medium, the Sámi people, indigenous to Fennoscandia, have been depicted on film. These early films are ethnographic, made from an outsider perspective, depicting the Sámi as exotic and simple. However, in the 1970s, the Sámi became more involved in the filmmaking process, and in 1987, the first Sámi film, Pathfinder, was made. This shift to Sámi self-representation

This essay examines how masculinity is negotiated through equestrian symbolism in Nicholas Evans’s The Horse Whisperer (1995) and Jilly Cooper’s Riders (1985), situating both novels within the cultural context of late twentieth-century neoliberal Britain and the United States. Drawing on masculinity studies, neoliberal theory, and animal symbolism, the essay argues that the horse functions as a ce
Eutrophication, caused by excessive accumulation of key nutrients such as nitrogen and phosphorus in water, is a major environmental problem that significantly affects water quality and aquatic ecosystems. This thesis project aims to evaluate different adsorption-based treatment methods that can effectively reduce the nutrient content of water. Water samples were collected from various water sourc
Spider silk is a highly attractive biomaterial with exceptional strength and versatility, offering potential applications across numerous industries. However, large-scale production remains a significant challenge. Harvesting silk directly from spiders has proven impractical, making recombinant protein production a promising alternative. Spider silk has been studied at Lund University for several
