Syftet med denna rapport är att undersöka om bilägandet i Lund förändras när mobilitetshus implementeras. Mobilitetshus är ett allt vanligare begrepp i Sverige när parkeringslösningar diskuteras. I dagsläget finns det ingen tydlig definition av vad ett mobilitetshus är, och därför finns heller ingen standard eller några krav på vad det ska innehålla. Genom litteraturstudier har tidigare forskning The purpose of this report is to investigate whether car ownership in Lund changes when mobility houses are implemented. Mobility houses are an increasingly common concept in Sweden when discussing parking solutions. Currently, there is no clear definition of what a mobility house is, and therefore no standard or any requirements for what it should contain. Through literature studies, previous res

Satelliten Gaia har samlat data för ESA sedan den skjöts upp år 2013. Denna data har gett astronomer en ny inblick i hur den galaktiska miljön ser ut i vår närhet. Gaia har varit ett så lyckat projekt att man nu har börjat arbeta med en uppföljare till Gaiasatteliten, GaiaNIR, som står för Gaia Near InfraRed. Planen är att GaiaNIR ska observera i det infraröda spektrumet, något som gör att extinktGaia Near InfraRed, or GaiaNIR for short, is a proposed successor to the original Gaia satellite. Its main improvement over the Gaia satellite is the fact that GaiaNIR will observe in the infrared spectrum. This would allow the telescope to see through the heavy extinction of the Milky Way, as the interstellar gas and dust obstructs light mainly in the visible spectrum. A selection function utiliz

This thesis explores the complex relationship between midwives and obstetricians in Austria's intramural maternity care, focusing on the ideological tensions surrounding ‘normal’ birth. Inspired by Critical Discourse Analysis, this research reveals that both professional groups act according to their distinct discursive subject positions, reinforcing their respective roles while shaping a soci

Sweden aims to reach net-zero carbon emissions by 2045. Grid-connected photovoltaic (PV) systems are emerging as a practical solution to attempt to minimise climate impact within the building sector in a cost-effective manner. This study theoretically investigates the climate impacts of grid-connected photovoltaic (PV) systems within Sweden’s low-carbon intensity electricity grid. The environmenta

This report starts by delivering a statement of its purpose, namely, to explore and learn from the entire building process, through the construction of a small sauna on a raft. It begins with a brief inventory of bathing culture and its history throughout the world before arriving at the Finnish sauna and the bathing culture of the Swedish west coast. The project and its concept is then introduced

High-pressure homogenizers (HPHs) are widely used in the food industry for breaking down droplets and particles to improve product stability and mouthfeel. HPHs are prone to cavitation, characterized by the formation and collapse of vapor bubbles, leading to wear and reduction in efficiency. This study evaluates the potassium iodide (KI) oxidation method as a tool for measuring cavitation. The met

Denna uppsats syftar till att stärka förståelsen för dynamisk prissättning och dess möjligheter genom att undersöka effekterna på samhällsnyttan om dynamisk prissättning används inom kollektivtrafiken. Kollektivtrafiken har en stor påverkan på samhällsnyttan och är ett verktyg som kan bidra till att minska social exkludering. Det är därför av stor betydelse att utbudssidan av kollektivtrafiken max

Södra Sverige saknar planerbara energikällor. En gasturbin är en flexibel lösning på detta problem, men dess effekt kommer att variera beroende på var den placeras i det sydligaste elområdet SE4.In the SE4 bidding area in Sweden, there exist few sources of dispatchable power. The area relies on transmission from the north or intermittent production. The installation of a gas turbine could alleviate these issues in the near future and improve voltage stability and power transfer to the region. Depending on where this gas turbine is located, there will be differences in system performance.

I takt med att hållbarhet blivit en allt viktigare faktor i konsumtionsbeslut har även användningen av miljöpåståenden i marknadsföring ökat. Många företag framhåller sina produkter som "miljövänliga" eller "hållbara", men långt ifrån alla sådana påståenden har vetenskaplig grund. Fenomenet, känt som grönmålning, innebär att företag skapar en missvisande bild av sin miljöpåverkAs sustainability has become an increasingly important factor in consumer decision-making, the use of environmental claims in marketing has also risen. Many companies promote their products as "environmentally friendly" or "sustainable," yet not all such claims are based on scientific evidence. The phenomenon known as greenwashing occurs when businesses create a misleading impr

This thesis investigates using machine learning for estimating the infrared-to-visible light ratio (qIR) in images, which is used for day/night synchronization in surveillance cameras. Three different models were developed, namely a regression multilayer perceptron (RMLP), a regression-by-classification MLP (RbC MLP), as well as a gradient-boosted decision tree (GBDT). Using an internal dataset co

The telecom industry falls among one of the most progressive markets that operates at the level of advanced technologies and has the fastest rate of growth all over the world, including from the perspective of 5G technology, the integration of digital products, and the constant increase in demand for broadband internet. In such a competitive environment, customer attrition has been known to be a m

Inconel 718 is a widely used Nickel-based alloy in the aerospace sector. However, its exceptional mechanical properties make it a very difficult material for machining operations. Additive manufacturing presents itself as a promising alternative, as it would reduce the need for post-printing material removal by machining. However, not enough research has been done about the behaviour of this mater

Denna uppsats syftar till att utreda hur den varumärkesrättsliga konsumtionsprincipen påverkar möjligheten för en varumärkesinnehavare att hindra parallellimport av varor som redan har satts på marknaden inom Europeiska ekonomiska samarbetsområdet (EES). Enligt artikel 15 i varumärkesdirektivet (EU) 2015/2436 anses varumärkesrätten i regel förbrukad när en vara har introducerats i EES med innehavaThis thesis examines how the principle of trademark exhaustion influences a trademark owner’s capacity to block parallel imports of goods already released on the market within the European Economic Area (EEA). Under Article 15 of Directive (EU) 2015/2436, once a product has been legitimately placed on the EEA market with the trademark owner’s consent, the right is generally regarded as exhausted,
