Optimering av sopsugsystem i Brunnshög

Examensarbetet undersöker möjligheterna för optimering av det implementerade sopsugsystemet i Brunnshög, Lund. Brunnshög är ett nyutvecklat bostadsområde i Lund. Eftersom det är planerat för Brunnshög att fortsätta expandera till 8.000-9.000 lägenheter och kontor år 2045, är det nödvändigt att analysera och säkerställa att sopsugsystemet fungerar med sin optimala potential. Idag förser sopsugsyste

The Hunger Games – en medskapande frälsningshistoria : en processteologisk analys av The Hunger Games-trilogin

This bachelor's thesis examines how The Hunger Games trilogy can be interpreted as an example of achieving justice through participatory processes. The aim is to analyze, from a process theological perspective, how the protagonist Katniss Everdeen actively contributes to the liberating process through her actions. The analysis utilizes Catherine Keller's and Sallie McFague's process th

Towardsa Paradigm Shift: How Can Machine Learning Extend the Boundaries of Quantitative Management Scholarship?

Management scholarship is beginning to grapple with the growing popularity of machine learning (ML) as an analytical tool. While quantitative research in our discipline remains heavily influenced by positivist thinking and statistical modelling underpinned by null hypothesis significance testing, ML is increasingly used to solve technical, computationally demanding problems. In this paper, we argu

Why focusing on “climate change denial” is counterproductive

At the end of September, David Malpass, the president of the World Bank, was heavily criticized after failing to acknowledge anthropogenic climate change [henceforth called climate change (1)]. Although he later apologized for and revised his remarks, they sparked a renewed public debate on the existence of climate changedeniers and their impact on our transition toward a more sustainable future (

Public support for decarbonization policies in the UK: exploring regional variations and policy instruments

Decarbonization policies require public support to be implemented and to remain in legislation. Examinations of public support for climate policies tend to focus on asmall number of policy instruments and/or use hypothetical instead of real policy proposals. Here, we address these criticisms by examining public support acrossfour distinct policy instruments– command-and-control, market-based, info

Assessing toxicity of PM2.5 from indoor sources and during exposure in private homes

Toxicological testing in mice was conducted on PM2.5 particles from stressed burning of two types of candles (white and blue) and on PM2.5 collected indoor and outdoor of fifteen occupied homes in southern Sweden. As an indicator of toxicity, the ability to generate Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) was also assessed for all pooled samples: candle white, candle blue, indoor, and outdoor. Higher toxici

The effect of intra-workplace pay inequality on employee trust in managers: Assessing a multilevel moderated mediation effect model

High levels of economic inequality are widely viewed as a key challenge facing bothadvanced industrial and developing economies. Country-level studies have consistentlyshown a negative link between income inequality and trust in others. This is typicallyattributed to greater social distance within unequal societies. Do we observe similarrelationships within organisations? This is an important ques

Climate policy support in the UK: An interaction of worldviews and policy types

Understanding predictors of climate policy support is important for tackling climate change. Previous research demonstrated that policy support is partially driven by cultural worldviews. Yet, treating policies as a homogeneous concept, this literature neglected the existence of different policy types. Making this distinction is important because each type implies a distinct solution to the same p

A Swedish dietary guideline index, gut microbial α-diversity and prevalence of metabolic syndrome – observations in the Swedish CArdioPulmonary bioImage Study (SCAPIS)

Background: Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is characterized by coexisting risk factors for type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Diet is of importance in their aetiology, and gut microbiota (GM) may constitute a link between diet and metabolic health. Understanding the interplay between diet and GM could contribute novel insights for future dietary guidelines, and aid in preventive actions to mot

Styrelseledamöters skadeståndsansvar vid otillåtna försvarsåtgärder

Ett offentligt erbjudande till aktieägarna i ett noterat bolag, om att överlåta samtliga eller en del av aktierna i bolaget, kallas för ett offentligt uppköpserbjudande. I Sverige är de flesta buden förhandlade redan innan ett offentligt uppköpserbjudande påbörjas. Det förekommer dock att bud riktas mot målbolag där budet inte är förankrat hos målbolagsstyrelsen. Vid ett så kallat fientligt bud reA public bid to the shareholders of a listed company, to transfer all or a part of the company’s shares, is called a takeover bid. In Sweden, most bids are negotiated before a takeover bid is initiated. However, bids are sometimes made against target companies where the bid is not supported by the target company’s board of directors. In the event of a so-called hostile takeover bid, the target com

Ogiltighet i förköpsförbehåll – En avvägning mellan flexibilitet och rättssäkerhet

I detta examensarbete undersöks rättsverkningarna av förköpsförbehåll enligt aktiebolagslagen, med fokus på de praktiska och juridiska konsekvenserna av att sådana förbehåll överträds. Arbetet behandlar om och hur förköpsförbehåll kan åsidosättas, särskilt genom avtalsrättsliga mekanismer, och analyserar huruvida gällande rätt möjliggör avtalsrättsliga lösningar med aktiebolagsrättslig verkan. VidIn this thesis the legal effects of pre-emption clauses under the Swedish Companies Act are examined, focusing on the practical and legal implications of breaches of such clauses. It explores whether pre-emption clauses can be disregarded, particularly through contractual mechanisms, and evaluates whether current law allows contractual solutions to have binding corporate law effects. The thesis al

Switzerland, focusing on the Court´s recent interpretation of victim status and its procedural standards for associational standing before it in climate cases. It explores whether the ECtHR´s reasoning and construction of the newly esta

Palestinagård – The law as a tool of resistance or oppression?

During the fall of 2023, the Palestine solidarity movement grew as a response to Israel’s war on Gaza. The student movement for Palestine was an important part of the Palestine solidarity movement. Palestinagård demanded LU to comply with their demands: to stand in solidarity with Palestine and Israel’s systemic destruction of the education system (scholasticide), cut ties with complicit academic

Recording of non-musculoskeletal manifestations, comorbidities and safety outcomes in European spondyloarthritis registries : A survey

Objectives: Real-world evidence is needed to inform treatment strategies for patients with PsA and axial SpA (axSpA) who have non-musculoskeletal manifestations (NMMs), various risk factors and comorbidities. International collaboration is required to ensure statistical power and to enhance generalizability. The first step forward is identifying which data are currently being collected. Across 17

This review summarizes the evidence, published to date, for the use of rimegepant as an acute or preventive treatment of migraine. Areas covered: A brief overview of migraine, th

Drug Treatment

A short review is given of current literature on medical alternatives for managing neurogenic bladder (NGB) by treating detrusor overactivity (NDO) and improving bladder compliance and urinary incontinence. The first goal of treatment of NGB is to protect the upper tract from damage, and the second is to maintain urinary continence, but all the while maintaining the patient’s quality of life. The
