The goal of the masters thesis was specifically to make the product more usable and increase its effectiveness as a teaching tool. The product was improved over multiple iterations. Each iteration contained a desig

Exploring the Feasibility of Using Fire Dynamics Simulator to Improve the Calculation of the Wildfire Available Safe Egress Time

Wildland-Urban Interface (WUI) fires pose a significant threat to public safety and property in areas where urban development encroaches upon natural landscapes. This thesis aims to investigate the effect of smoke from a WUI fire on the tenability conditions of a small village and to establish a worst-case-scenario trigger boundary around it as an improved basis for the WUI available safe egress t

Cemetery in Sweden as cultural landscape - A phenomenological study on cemetery design and planning in Stockholm

The focus of this thesis is centered around the cemeteries in Stockholm city. As a form of arrangement and design of objects located on the land, the cemetery can be conceptualized as a landscape. Its distinct function, serving as a memorial space for the living and a final resting place for the deceased, adds layers of complexity. As such, the cemetery becomes a shared space for both the living a

”Se upp för nålen!” Intraoperativa stick- och skärskador bland operationssjuksköterskor: En enkätstudie

Bakgrund: Stick- och skärskador är vanligt bland operationspersonal. I samband med en stick- och skärskada startar en process som kan bli långdragen i form av oro i väntan på resultat och i värsta fall livslång sjukdom. Att uppmärksamma stick- och skärskador, vanliga moment när det sker och i vilken grad skadorna rapporteras är viktigt för att ett förbättringsarbete ska kunna planeras och implemen

Prestige, praktik, och öppen publicering : En kvalitativ intervjustudie om humanioradoktorander och publicering

The publishing landscape has undergone significant transformation in the last years facing and implementing open science policies, including principles for open access (OA). However, certain challenges have been identified in OA-publishing for different scientific fields, such as the humanities, depending on the norms and traditions for how to conduct research and how to publish. The topic of this

Specialistsjuksköterskans erfarenhet av att slutbehandla patienter på akutmottagningen självständigt

Bakgrund och problemområde: Antal patienter som söker till Sveriges akutmottagningar ökar stadigt varje år bortsett från minskningen under pandemin. Siffror visar att väntetiden till läkare ökar vilket försvårar Socialstyrelsens fyra timmars mål och ambitionen med en högre vårdkvalité. En stor del av patienterna som söker sig till akutmottagningen behöver inte träffa en läkare och studier från and

Permanently stored, permanently trapped? A study on the risk of carbon lock-in through the German-Norwegian partnership in CCS and hydrogen

As the climate crisis becomes more severe, carbon capture and storage (CCS) is increasingly seen as a viable option to help mitigate climate change. However, one risk with regard to CCS is that it locks us into the use of carbon-based energy sources and industry, creating a carbon lock-in. Looking at the German-Norwegian partnership to store German CO2 in Norway and to provide hydrogen in return,
