In the bachelor studio Samtid (Architecture in the Contemporary), ROOTS was created during 10 weeks. The course has focused on spatial experiments and 3D modeling, in programs like Rhinoceros and Grasshopper, which therefor has been big parts of the project. The main task was to design a crematory in Limhamns lime quarry in Malmö. Since a crematory is a very special building that deals both with p

This master thesis aims to examine the concepts of gratitude, hope, and forgiveness within Christian theology and how these concepts have been transformed within the discourse of positive psychology.

The Cocoon is a Bachelor’s Project created in Studio Samtid at Lund School of Architecture. The assignment was to create a crematory in Limhamns Kalkbrott using the tools of Rhinoceros and Grasshopper to help explore and creating spaces. Spaces where people can say goodbye to their loved ones with the help of architecture.

Bakgrund: Den äldre befolkningen ökar i högre takt nu än tidigare, vilket ställer stora krav på hälso- och sjukvården. Alla patienter har rätt till lika vård och hälsofrämjande vård oavsett var de vänder sig i hälso- och sjukvården. Patienter har även rätt att välja mellan privat och offentlig primärvård. En vårdform som utvecklats inom primärvården i Region Skåne är äldrevårdsmottagning, vars syf

Denna uppsats hade som syfte att undersöka lagändringen av lagen (1960:729) om upphovsrätt till litterära och konstnärliga verk i och med SFS 2018:1099. Syftet var också att utforska om denna på ett tillfredsställande sätt tagit hänsyn till de folkrättsliga principerna om skydd för mänskliga rättigheter för personer med funktionsvariationer, eller om ändringen till största del varit symbolisk. LagThe purpose of this essay was to examine the amendment to the law (1960:729) on copyright for literary and artistic works as of SFS 2018:1099. The purpose was also to examine whether this amendment has taken into sufficient consideration the international principles for the protection of human rights for people with disabilities, or if the alteration has been of a mostly symbolic nature. The amend

Objective: The Aim of this study was to investigate older persons experience of nurse-led geriatric clinics. Design: The study was based on a qualitative method. Sample: 12 older persons (75+) were interviewed about their experience of nurse-led geriatric clinics. All participants were Swedish-speaking, varied in age and were patients from five different geriatric clinics within primary healthcare

Att utveckla kollektivtrafiken är ett viktigt steg för att uppnå de klimatmål Sverige har åtagit sig att följa. Ett verktyg i utformningen och kapacitetsutvecklingen av hållplatserna är trafiksimulering. Detta arbete utforskar hur hållplatser kan på bästa sätt modelleras och kalibreras för fotgängare i programmet Vissim som är en simuleringsmjukvara utvecklad av företaget PTV Group. Vid kalibreriThe development of public transport is an important step toward reaching the climate goals Sweden has set. Traffic simulation is an instrument when developing and designing public transport stops. This thesis investigates how public transport stops can be modeled and calibrated for pedestrians in the PTV groups software Vissim. During the calibration, the platform was divided into four different z

Bakgrund: Diabetes typ 2 är en kronisk folksjukdom som ökar över hela världen till följd av övervikt och fetma. Sjukdomen innebär att kroppen producerar mindre insulin och inte längre klarar av att hantera glukos i blodet. Den primära behandlingen vid diagnosen är egenvård i form av ändrade levnadsvanor. Diagnosen kan leda till svåra komplikationer samt kortare liv om personer med diabetes typ 2 m

I en tid då sociala medier tar upp allt mer av vår tid, hur ska e-handeln hantera att sociala medier nu även investerar i e-handel. Genom att investera i sociala medier såklart! Frågan är bara hur?Social commerce (s-commerce) is a new paradigm for electronic commerce (e- commerce) where sociability, such as reviews and forums, is introduced into the e-commerce context. Previous research point to s-commerce design as a topic that needs more research, and that creating user-centered s-commerce websites is cumbersome and a hindrance for s-commerce adoption. The main research objective of this

The purpose of this dissertation is to examine how design-related copying is described on Diet Prada’s Instagram account and how their activity is received in the fashion press. Further on, the aim is to examine the discourses concerning the relationship between a copy and an original that can be discerned in the Diet Prada-debate. There is existing research on the effects of design-related copyin

Audiovisual content is heavily prevalent in many modern societies. Film, in particular, is a favourite form of entertainment to many. Film is by nature both multimodal and polysemiotic, employing the modalities of visual and auditive as well as the semiotic systems of language, gesture, depiction and music. Some audiences do not have immediate access to content using either the auditive or visual

Changes in the agricultural landscape have caused declines in bumblebee species richness and abundance. Semi-natural grasslands are key habitats for bumblebees in agricultural landscapes, and therefore it is important to understand which habitat characteristics promote species-rich bumblebee assemblages in these habitats. In this study, I investigate the importance of trees within semi-natural gra

Alpha-synuclein is a protein involved in several neurodegenerative diseases, such as Parkinson’s, where it has been observed to form amyloid fibrils or Lewy bodies. However, how or to what extent alpha-synuclein is involved is not known. I have in this thesis been conducting experiments in order to design an experimental model system to study how alpha-synuclein interacts with a cell membrane. Thi

Risk communication is recognised as an essential component of crisis preparedness, enabling people at risk to take informed decisions to protect themselves. Research has shown that foreign-born people including refugees and immigrants to a lesser extent than others are reached by the information and are less prepared for crisis, making them particularly vulnerable in crisis situations. Employing a

Klorofyllsyntes i korn Växter skapar sin energi genom fotosyntesen där vatten och koldioxid omvandlas till kolhydrater och syre med hjälp av ljusenergi. För en fungerande fotosyntes behöver växter pigmentet klorofyll som fångar in ljusenergin. Det är även det pigmentet som ger växter dess gröna färg. Klorofyll produceras genom flera steg varav de flesta är väl kända men några frågor kvarstår. Jag

The interest of religion in the academia of history and the history of ideas has held an unobtrusive and modest position during modernity. Often, religion and its influences, was regarded as something waning, something that was about to disappear. Instead science would become the foremost guiding light upon which most historians would focus their gaze. This essay aims to examine how article-author

he most important factor in a creative mind, is the confidence in that you can create. When I talk to people about music and creativity, many often reject the top- ic or excuse themselves by explaining that “They cannot play the piano...?”, “they aren’t good at reading notes...!” or that “they just simply aren’t the creative person!”. Peo- ple are afraid of failure and of being judged by other

Great salt lakes around the world are drying at a rapid rate. The drying salt lakes gives rise to several health and socio-economic concerns for the population in the surrounding region. The respective governments undertook various measures to address the concerns relating to the drying of salt lakes. This research aims to assess the strategies towards increasing the water level of saltwater lakes
