Throughout the past, cities have been designed so that cars have become the centre of the streetscape, and pedestrians have come second. This led to wide streets, street parking, and smaller city sidewalks. However, pedestrians are the ones who bring life and movement to a street or square. Currently, more municipalities want to shift their focus to the centre of their cities and reduce access (d‘

Thesis Purpose: The purpose of this study is to outline the relationship between football fans and their respective clubs. The seemingly unbreakable consumer loyalty a football team enjoys is arguably unique in the corporate world, and we aim to examine this loyalty and its influence on the brand-consumer relationship. Theory: The theory used in this thesis is centred around brand loyalty and con

The aim of this project is to establish a workflow that transforms CT-scanned images of paperboard into a calibrated Representative Volume Element (RVE). A RVE is defined as the smallest volume that accurately captures the macroscopic behaviour of the material. First, CT-scanned images are converted into a finite element model that rep- resents the microstructure of the paperboard. Secondly, a di

The widespread use of plastic mulch in agriculture is rapidly increasing due to intensified farming practices. While plastic mulch can enhance crop yields significantly, it also introduces challenges related to waste management and environmental degradation. This study focuses on the application of Sentinel-2A imagery and the Maximum Likelihood Classifier (MLC) to classify plastic foils used in ea

In the last few years sustainability has become a priority for many organizations, as the sustainability performance of companies has received increased attention from investors and customers. However, organizations have mainly focused on whether they are perceived as sustainable externally, while fewer organizations have thought about how they are perceived internally. This study investigates emp

This thesis explores the challenges and critical success factors (CSFs) of SAP implementation in the Egyptian public sector through qualitative thematic analysis. Insights were obtained from interviews with SAP consultants involved in 28 public sector companies. Key challenges identified include leadership and management issues, resource and infrastructure limitations, organizational culture and e

Examensarbetets titel: Snabb och snäll - En teoriutvecklande studie om marketing agility inom välgörenhetsorganisationer Seminariedatum: 2024-05-31 Ämne/kurs:FEKH29, Examensarbete i marknadsföring på kandidatnivå, 15 högskolepoäng Författare: Marcus Danckler, David Ingvarsson, Johanna Nimvik Stern Handledare: Patrik Stoopendahl Fem nyckelord: Marketing agility, välgörenhetsorganisationer, mar

The aim of this bachelor thesis is to enhance the performance of one of the electron storage rings at MAX IV. The performance is primarily evaluated based on the lifetime and injection efficiency of the ring. Improving these variables will enable smoother machine operation by providing faster injections and reducing background radiation during injections. Consequently, this optimisation project is

In the ecumenical global discourse, sexuality is often said to be “the most divisive issue”. Despite this, there have been and still are many ongoing conversations on this matter. One significant example is the document Conversations on the Pilgrim Way: Invitation to Journey Together on Matters of Human Sexuality, which was produced by the World Council of Churches and released in 2022. This mast

The bioenergy industry, particularly pulp mills, holds promise for achieving carbon negativity through the adoption of carbon capture processes. Presently, CO2 capture from flue gases poses significant challenges due to its energy-intensive nature and the risk of solvent chemical degradation. This thesis conducts a screening of primary absorption technologies and models a carbon capture process in

I en så kallad synkrotronljuskälla utvinns synkrotronljus från elektroner som färdas runt en lagringsring i nära ljusets hastighet. Detta ljus kan användas för att bedriva olika sorters experiment med syftet att studera strukturer och egenskaper hos olika material. MAX IV i Lund är en modern synkrotronljuskälla, där synkrotonljuset används av många olika forskargrupper med lika många intressen ochMAX IV laboratory is a modern synchrotron light source, providing synchrotron radiation for a wide array of research groups. To provide users with high-quality synchrotron radiation, the electron beam from which the synchrotron radiation stems needs to be well understood. This thesis describes a first implementation of time-correlated single-photon counting (TCSPC) as a tool to measure longitudina

Tuberculosis is caused by Mycobacterium Tuberculosis, an airborne bacterium that impacts the lungs, affecting one third of the global population, and was declared a global health emergency by the WHO. Multi-drug resistant variations of the pathogen diminish decades of drug discovery, development, and research. This complex and multi-factorial challenge calls for new approaches in anti-microbial dr

This thesis examines the advocacy strategies employed by civil society organisations (CSOs) in Cambodia, focusing on land rights and women’s rights within the constraints of a shrinking civic space. The study aims to understand how CSOs mobilise resources and adapt their strategies to address human rights issues in an authoritarian context. Using postcolonial theory, resource mobilisation theory,

This thesis investigates the key factors influencing startup decisions to reintegrate environmental sustainability objectives (ESO). By adopting an inductive and deductive qualitative approach the study uses semi-structured interviews to investigate the decisionmaking of five startups that have undergone ESO reintegration. The findings lead to the establishment of a theoretic framework by identify

Sett till EU:s totala koldioxidutsläpp står byggnadernas energianvändning för en tredjedel av dem (Regeringskansliet 2023). Sverige har ett energipolitiskt mål om att ha en 50 % effektivare energianvändning till 2030, jämfört med 2005, benämnt energiintensitetsmålet. En stor del av den befintliga bebyggelsen i vårt samhälle har ett högt energibehov. Med ökade krav på energieffektivisering av det bOne third of the EU's carbon emissions come from buildings energy use. Sweden aims for 50% more energy efficiency by year 2030, compared to year 2005. Existing buildings, with high energy demands, require renovations for energy efficiency. However, it is crucial to consider the climate impact of such upgrades. Window renovations are one option. This study explores the complexities of improving

Idag finns konsumtionsbeteenden och normer som uppmuntrar oss att köpa och returnera så mycket kläder vi vill. Både produktion- och konsumtion influeras av den så kallade fastfashion-modellen som leder till massproduktion och överkonsumtion av kläder. Idag har modebranschen den snabbast växande e-handelssektorn i världen. Baksidan av e-handelns framväxt är att returer av kläder har blivit alltmer Due to the growing e-commerce volumes, product returns have become an increasingly important issue within the fashion industry. About 70 % of all returns are caused by poor fit or size. Therefore, there is a need to improve fit and size information online to decrease the rate of returns. In recent years, there has been an increased interest for implementing AI solutions to improve consumer informa

The Swedish social-democratic state has long been synonymous with a strong welfare system accompanied by high levels of trust. Lately, the Swedish population have demonstrated unease and dissatisfaction towards the Swedish state, and this trend seems to be more apparent amongst some specific socioeconomic and demographic groups. Previous research and theories have used trust as a measurement of th

This study aims to understand how individuals perceive and respond to a reform, focusing on the dichotomy between the "surface"—the presentation of the reform—and the "substance"—the internal reality experienced by employees. Specifically, it examines the implementation of an Activity-Based Workplace (ABW) at Havsby. Utilizing a qualitative methodology within the interpretivist
