The primary objectives of this study are two-fold: firstly, to understand the meaning of accessibility as outlined in Region Skåne's strategies; and secondly, to analyze the influence of regional priorities and planning processes on the practices of key stakeholders, namely Region Skåne and
Syftet med studien är att undersöka hur svenska researrangörer som är verksamma i Alperna bidrar till kundens värdeskapande. Studien syftar fortsättningsvis till att undersöka hur researrangörer arbetar, och bör arbeta i framtiden, för att vara ett attraktivt alternativ på marknaden. Digitaliseringen har bidragit till uppkomsten av nya aktörer och tjänster på marknaden och därför befinner sig rese
“1000 Extra” is a project that takes off in the sub optimal conditions that city planning in the 20-th century has left behind for the future. First and foremost looking at the conditions of residential areas planned based on doctrines stemming in modernism, the project proposes desnsifying the not-so-dense areas in Lund, consisting of row houses and other residential buildings in the same categor
Public spaces are central in most forms of urban planning and design since they play an important role in people’s wellbeing and social life. This study, however, explores public spaces in an often-neglected context: the rural. The research highlights and processes three public spaces in the Swedish village Kivik, a popular tourist destination on the east coast of Scania. Henri Lefebvre’s theory o
Samhället går mot större användning av digitala hjälpmedel. Detta innebär både en stor förändring och påverkning av omgivningen, både lokalt och globalt. I detta inkluderas även byggbranschen med en förändring som pågått sedan mitten av 1900-talet. Branschen, som länge varit betraktad som konservativ, befinner sig idag i en förändringsprocess som går snabbare än någonsin tidigare. Nya metoder och
This study sought to evaluate the historical impact of changes to an ordering page of an online travel agency on its conversion rates. Data gathered from the website over a year, detailing aspects such as travel dates, prices, itineraries, number of passengers, travel time, and carriers, was analyzed. External data sources were also included, with the dataset covering 12 changes to the website'
Abstract Sweden has during a period of time undergone a transformation from a homogeneous society to a society with diversity and is today part of the world in a different way than before. In 2019, almost 20 percent of the population had their origins in another country and in another culture. In a welfare society like Sweden, which is based on the equal rights of all people, it is important t
This study sets out to investigate the vulnerability to coastal flooding in the Spanish city of Valencia, aiming to evaluate its adaptive capacity over time to understand how successful lessons may be learned and transferred to a Swedish planning perspective. The study utilized various indexing systems to analyze and measure the climate and multivariable vulnerability as well as the adaptive capac
One of the most important parameters to measure in the fire discipline is the heat release rate (HRR). Therefore it is very important that these measurements are accurate and as correct as possible. The most common method for measuring heat release rate of fires is the OCC method (oxygen consumption calorimetry). The method is based on the relation between oxygen in the surroundings and the ex
Mjukvara i underrättelseinhämtning har uppmärksammats via ett antal större skandaler. Dessa skandaler har bidragit till en intensiv debatt om metodens legalitet. Användandet av mjukvara är dock inte på något avgörande sätt väsensskilt från klassiska inhämtningsmetoder som telefonavlyssning utan lyder under ett liknande legalt ramverk.
Bispecifika antikroppar är en del av den nya generationen immunterapi med potential att öka aktiveringen av immunförsvaret jämfört med monospecifika antikroppar. En tredjedel av Sveriges befolkning beräknas någon gång under sitt liv drabbas av cancer. Det gör cancer till en av de vanligaste sjukdomarna och en av de vanligaste dödsorsakerna. Immunterapi har under de senaste åren tagit plats bland
The automotive industry is currently undergoing significant transformation to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions as sustainability emerges as a global imperative. While electrification reduces tailpipe emissions, adopting principles of circularity throughout the entire value chain enables further reductions. The research aims to investigate the feasibility of increasing recycled content in bearing
The clothing industry is today linked to several sustainability challenges. Fast fashion is a reason for today's overconsumption, which with new technology, fast production times, and cheap materials has contributed to clothes being constantly consumed and replaced. At the same time, there is an increased awareness regarding sustainability issues and sustainable fashion. The aim of this bachel
The global human rights regime can only recognise rights that are already known and given, what I’m calling constituted human rights. This mantra poses some immediate obstacles: it effectively invisibilises issues of the productivity and antagonism of human rights movements, the unknown and indeterminate future, and human rights that don’t yet exist. This thesis is an effort to disclose, through c
A semi-flexible pavement is a composite material consisting of an open-graded asphalt skeleton with an air void content between 25 - 35% that is filled with a cement sludge. Limited research has been done regarding factors which can affect the mechanical properties of this material. Therefore, this study explores the affect the penetration value of a bitumen has on the stiffness of a semi-flexible
Background With obesity levels on the rise globally, it is necessary to create a healthier food environment and increase access to nourishing and palatable foods. Dietary fibre consumption has been proven to be one of the best ways to prevent cardiovascular diseases and type 2 diabetes. Glucanova AB developed an oat bran and barley-based product and investigated the daylong effect on glucose respo
This thesis aims to analyze the methods of existing studies on the relationship be- tween energy intensity and economic variables. I study panel data from 42 countries to examine the cointegration between energy intensity and GDP, capital stock, pop- ulation, and CO2 emissions as well as estimate their relationship with a pooled common correlated effects (CCEP) estimator. Then I investigate the he
The European Union (EU) is the largest provider of development aid in the world, considering the funds given by its institutions and Member States. Development cooperation has been a central policy theme since the Treaty of Rome in 1957, thus constituting a significant sphere of the EU’s foreign affairs. In this context, the concept of partnership covers a meaningful role, and has lately gained mo
