This bachelor thesis examines the relationship between two buildings situated at Universitetsholmen in Malmö: Tornhuset (1910) and its modern extension Urban Hinges (2015). Together, the two buildings form World Maritime University. The modern extension has received a great deal of attention, both positive and negative, in traditional as well as in social media. Several statements suggest that vi

This thesis investigates how an existing multifunctional coworking hub in Stockholm can adapt and improve through functional change to meet new current standards and beyond in our refined digital age. The process is defined by research and insights collected from it, starting with a site analysis of the building and the community in its context followed by a study on adaptive reuse to structurize

Investigating the discourse around development aid and cooperation yields insights into development policy choices and their public legitimisation and justification because of the recognised opinion-forming effect that public information, especially media, has on the public. Hence, public development discourse informs and shapes how ordinary people make sense of development issues and the perceive

Covid-19 pandemin har haft stor inverkan på alla delar av världen och har bidragit till att människor har varit tvungna att ta livsavgörande beslut. Det finns även individer som själva har valt att gå en annan väg i livet och tagit ett livsförändrande beslut. Vetenskapliga artiklar har påvisat resultat av att människor har själva valt att säga upp sig men även ökat ansökningar för organisationer u

AI systems are part of our daily lives and not only science fiction. In the healthcare sector are medical AI systems used to monitor patients, compare x-rays in order to detect diseases, or to even make a diagnosis. These AI systems help healthcare providers to make the work of doctors and nurses more efficient and to ensure the best service for their patients. However, next to these benefits come

Allteftersom stora framsteg görs i datorernas värld och inom artificiell intelligens ser samhället en allt större implementering av artificiell intelligence-teknologi i människors vardag. En sådan implementering är autonoma, självkörande, fordon. Detta är en teknologi som lovar stora framsteg inom fordonssäkerhet, lägre utsläpp till följd av mindre köbildning och en rad andra samhällsvinster. Det As progress is rapidly made in the spheres of computation and artificial intelligence the implementation of new artificial intelligence technologies becomes a more and more significant part of our everyday lives. One application that garners a lot of attention, making promises in the forms of lessened congestion, increased safety and a line of other benefits to society is the autonomous car. While

Publications have recently drawn attention to archaeology’s historically predominant focus on prestige items and the elite, highlighting the need for a greater focus on society’s lower classes. A few studies have discussed how, or even whether poverty can be addressed in historical archaeology. However, the phenomenon has not seen the same attention in Viking Age studies, despite the great deal of

Data inom hälsovården kan användas för att hitta mönster för att exempelvis ta fram hur många som är sjuka, eller hur många som har fått ta blodprov. Det används ofta statistiska modeller för att göra undersökningar, men i detta projektet används artificiell intelligens, och mer specifikt neuronnät. Då tar vi hjälp av artificiell intelligens för att hitta mönster inom datakällor som kan vara svåraOutlier detection in high-dimensional data is a complex task, useful in many fields. One major application is in healthcare, where the high-dimensional healthcare registers can be used to detect patterns related to the medical behaviour and state of the population. In this project, neural network based autoencoders were used to study the Covid-19 vaccination campaign, where it was trained on healt

Kombinerade cykel- och kollektivtrafikresor är en resekombination som har möjligheten att kombinera cykelns flexibilitet med den regionala kollektivtrafikens höga hastighet, för att skapa ett konkurrenskraftigt, hållbart resealternativ gentemot bilen. Genom att underlätta för kombinerade cykel- och kollektivtrafikresor har svenska städer en möjlighet att nå sina mål om att reducera trängsel och miCombined bicycle and public transport journeys is a travel combination with the potential of combining the flexibility of the bicycle, with the high speed of public transport, to create a highly competitive, sustainable mode of transport against the car. By stimulating combined bicycle and public transport journeys, Swedish cities have an opportunity to fulfil their goals with regards to relieved

De senaste decennierna har kriminalpolitiken i västvärlden blivit allt mer strafforienterad. Den punitiva, strafforienterade förändringen har även synts i den svenska politiken, som gått från att fokusera på rehabiliterande kriminalpolitik till straffande, kontrollerande kriminalpolitik. I och med den förändringen har begreppet trygghet kommit att ändra betydelse. Med hjälp av tidigare studier om

Concerns are growing within the field of development as global democracy rates decline. As a solution to how to rebuild democratic systems is currently unclear, this thesis looks at the case of Colombia and the national protests (colloquially referred to as El Paro) that began in April 2021. The nation, suffering from increasing political polarisation, rising poverty rates and crippling structural

This thesis provides in-depth analysis of the phenomena ghosting within the online dating world. Ghosting has become a common option to exit a relationship. The phenomena have rapidly grown along with the development of the internet and technology. New habits of socializing as well as changing ideals of relationships are parts of understanding the growth of the phenomena. With this thesis I seek t

Sammanfattning Det jag riktat mig in på är hospice och det är ett boende för de som har en obotlig sjukdom och befinner sig i slutskedet av livet. Ett hospiceboende skiljer sig från det vanliga sjukhuset, där omsorgen är mer än bara medicinsk vård. Fokuset ligger istället i helheten och man talar om en filosofi av vård där patientens fysiska såväl existentiella och psykologiska behov är i fokus. Abstract I have focused on hospice which is a home for those who have a terminal disease and are in the final stages of life. Hospice care is more than just the regular hospital medical care. Instead, it is built on a philosophy of care where the patient’s physical, existential and psychological needs are in focus. I will show my interpretation of how a hospice could be built to provide better qu

Abstract: The FIFA World Cup, together with the Summer Olympic Games, are the two events classified as sports mega-events (SMEs), characterized by their global outreach and different types of costs. Within the SME realm, a paradoxical trend can be seen; they show stronger sustainability agendas, yet generate higher social, economic, and environmental costs. The overarching question is their legaci

HI neutral gas is the basic building block of galaxies. It dictates the star formation rate and hence the metal enrichment rates within high redshift galaxies. HI neutral gas cannot be directly observed beyond z ≈ 0.38 due to the weakness of the 21 cm transition, therefore alternate methods need to be developed for studying high redshift galaxies. The emission luminosity of [C II]-157.741 μm trans

The association between education and health is well documented: more educated individuals live longer and have healthier lives. The incidence of health disparities by education was further accentuated during the Covid-19 pandemic, where the rates of Covid-19 cases and fatalities were higher in communities with less-educated populations. Differences in education, and related differences in health

Feminist activism in Mozambique has suffered dramatic changes throughout the many socio-political processes the country has encountered. Consequently, the activists in civil society still struggle to fight against patriarchal oppression, political repression, and socio-cultural norms that hinder women's full realization of their rights. As it follows, this research aims to investigate how acti
