An increasing number of companies are now publicly committing to becoming carbon neutral or achieving net-zero emissions. While most organisations will focus on preventative measures to reach their targets, climate compensation will also make up part of a company’s carbon management strategy. Initial reports indicate that corporate investments in forestry-related initiatives have significantly inc

Over just a few years, methods to manipulate videos have become so sophistica- ted that even someone without much expertise or computational resources can forge videos inseparable from pristine ones to the human eye. These methods can for instance insert a person in a video or manipulate their lip movements to make them say anything of the manipulator’s liking. Though there exist harm- less and co

Sepsis skördar globalt 11 miljoner människoliv per år, och även om man överlever riskerar man att få livslånga komplikationer. Befolkningen är inte införstådda med vad sepsis är och än mindre förstår de sig på vad det innebär. I detta magisterarbete har “Improving Long-term Outcomes after Sepsis” skriven av Hallie C. Prescott och Deena K. Costa analyserats. En sammanfattning av den svenska översät

What was once called science fiction has developed over the years to be one of the most strategic technologies of the 21st century – artificial intelligence (AI) is real. The rapid digitalization has opened new pathways in Swedish healthcare, by increasing productivity and the effectiveness of care delivery as well as helping more patients in receiving better care. Yet, when fully automated decisi

Trade unions have traditionally been key advocates for the Swedish welfare state. Yet, in recent decades, the Swedish welfare model has come under strain. Therefore, the aim of this thesis is to explore what policies Swedish trade unions develop in relation to the changing Swedish welfare state, and what the reasons are behind these policies. This was carried out through semistructured interviews

The transition to more renewable energy such as wind, leads to a decreased inertia in the power system. As a consequence of this, disturbances lead to larger frequency deviations and the frequency stability of the system is worsened. Therefore, there is a surging interest to estimate the inertia in the power system. In this thesis, a novel method for inertia estimation is proposed and investigate

Mitt i Öresund ligger Ven, denna ö välkomnar och vinkar av alla förbipasserande fartyg i sundet, med den skånska kusten som sin östra horisont, och den själländska danska kusten till väster. Här möts Nordatlantens saltvatten med Östersjöns sötvatten, strömmarna skiftar i samma takt som vinden i seglen ändrar riktning. Här har jag spenderat många somrar, med min mormor, med vänner, och med kusinerSituated in the heart of Öresund is Ven, this Island welcomes and says farewell to all passing ships. It has the Scanian Swedish coast on its eastern horizon, and the Zealandic Danish coast to its west. This is where the saltwater from the North Atlantic sea blends with the freshwater from the Baltic Sea, where the currents change as the winds in the sails change its direction. On this Island the

The impact that anthropogenic micropollutants have on the environment is increasingly gaining attention. As a result of this, Sweden, among other countries, is looking towards implementing advanced treatment for micropollutant and pharmaceutical product removal from wastewater prior to discharge into the environment. The leading method to achieve this is ozonation, which unfortunately also creates

The Yaw Power Backup System (YPBS) is a safety system that needs to be incorporated in the Wind Power Plant (WPP) in order to provide emergency power during a power outage. The YPBS enables the Wind Turbine Generator (WTG) to perform a yawing operation in extreme weather conditions. The yawing operation ensures the rotor is aligned with incoming wind, minimizing the acting forces on the blades and

During the recent years, Vietnam has had a remarkable economic growth and is seen as one of the promising countries of technological development and e-commerce. However, the country still has a long way to go in economic development. This study accounts for how the new trading market; e-comme

In this thesis, I investigate the concept of love in relation to feminist epistemology. Through a theoretical analysis and assessment, the aim has been to first of all examine ontological tensions between feminist works theorizing on love; secondly, to analyse which role the concept of love has in the works; and thirdly to contextualize the different ontological assumptions made within the basic t

The addressees of EU competition rules are designated as undertakings. EU antitrust and merger rules apply only where an entity constitutes an undertaking. The notion of undertaking is not defined in the Treaties, rather it is developed in the case-law of the Court of Justice of the European Union and the decisional practice of the European Commission. An undertaking is defined as any entity engag

In recent years, business plan competitions have become a popular tool for entrepreneurs to obtain assistance in their desire to start a company. Despite this support service, the start-up failure rate remains high. Therefore, this paper aims to increase the understanding of how business plan competitions impact new venture development. Based on prevalent theories of entrepreneurship, venture life

Education is by the UN stated to be the foundation to creating sustainable development. Lately, there has been a tremendous increase in the use of information and communications technology (ICT) for educational purposes worldwide, but as many countries lag behind both in terms of uptake and usage of ICT, this limits their populations’ chances to participate. Given this, the aim of this thesis was

Vid en fastighetstransaktion har säljaren enligt JB 4:19 ett abstrakt felansvar. Detta felansvar infördes när den nya jordabalken trädde i kraft år 1972. Innan dess hade säljaren inte detta abstrakta felansvar, utan endast ett ansvar för sådant som denne gjort direkta utfästelser om. Förändringen medförde därför en förskjutning av risken att behöva stå för ett fel från köparen till säljaren. Ett sIn a real estate transaction, according to chapter 4, paragraph 19, in the Swedish Land Code, the seller has an abstract liability. This liability was introduced when the new Land Code came into force in 1972. Prior to that, the seller did not have this abstract liability, but only a responsibility for things that he made direct commitments to. The change therefore led to a shift in the risk of ha

Sweden has no specific law regarding cyberstalking, even though technology is a prominent part of everyday society. There is a lack of research concerning cyberstalking within the Swedish context. This study aims to examine the legal norms involving cyberstalking. Specifically how the existing legal norms are reproduced, as well as to see if the legal and social norms have an interdependence and w

I detta examensarbete kommer sex miljöcertifieringssystem att jämföras med varandra för att se hur dessa beaktar inomhusmiljön i nybyggnationer för skolor, lokaler och bostäder. Dessutom kommer det att redovisas vilka krav och förordningar som dessa förhåller sig till för att uppnå en god inomhusmiljö samtidigt som man beaktar människans behov. Dessa miljöcertifieringssystem som kommer att jämföraIn this thesis, six environmental certification systems will be compared with each other, in order to analyze how these systems, take the indoor environment into account in new buildings for schools, premises and housing. In addition, it will be reported what requirements and regulations these relate to in order to achieve a good indoor environment while taking into account people's needs. The
