Abstract Global industrial providers increasingly recognize the aftermarket as a significant source of untapped value, yet many remain challenged in the pursuit of capturing it. This research examines a global medical simulation provider where the absence of strategic segmentation between primary product flows and the distribution of spare parts has produced persistent operational misalignment. Le
This thesis investigates daylight performance and energy use in museum environments using Malmö Konsthall as a case study. The aim is to evaluate daylight quality, visual comfort, artwork protection, and energy performance, and to explore how these aspects can be balanced through design strategies. The study combines field measurements, climate-based daylight simulations, energy simulations, and a
Introduction: Omega-3 fatty acid supplements are widely used as an alternative to eating oily fish. However the polyunsaturated oils they contain are highly susceptible to oxidation, which can lead to rancidity and possibly decreased quality of the supplement. Background: Despite the convenience of omega-3 supplementation, there is limited independent information on the oxidative quality of produ
This thesis examines whether the transfer of a company containing accumulated retained earnings to a shareholder benefiting from a more favourable dividend tax regime can constitute a form of structural dividend stripping under EU law. Unlike traditional dividend stripping arrangements, such as cum-ex and cum-cum transactions, these structures rely on intra-group corporate restructurings through w
This thesis examines the relationship between gender and corruption within Swedish municipalities. While Sweden is frequently associated with honest governance, concerns regarding corruption have increased in recent years, particularly in municipalities due to their corruption-prone operations. Previous research remains divided on whether women reduce corruption or if the relationship is better ex
The present study aimed to examine the extent to which schematic extrinsic congruence level (congruent, neutral, and incongruent) of non-present room objects and exposure time (4 seconds and 10 seconds) of room images influenced levels of false memory formation. A factorial repeated-measures experiment was conducted with a sample consisting of 102 Swedish participants aged 18–35 years. The experim
This study examines why some separatist insurgencies negotiate while others continue armed struggle, focusing on BRN-C in Southern Thailand and the Kachin Independence Organization (KIO) in Myanmar. Despite similar ethnoreligious, peripheral, and long-standing conflicts, BRN-C entered negotiations with the Thai state in 2025, while KIO continued its insurgency. Using a Most Similar Different Outco
In this thesis, I examine the datafication of football through the lens of document theory. From this perspective, I view data as necessarily material, social and cognitive. The aim of the thesis is to (1) increase the understanding of how the intensified quantification of sport shapes fans’ interaction with it and (2) to bridge a gap between document theory, as a part of library and information s

The purpose of this study was to increase the understanding of land grabbing from orphans by investigating the institutions governing orphans’ land rights. The questions that guided the research dealt with the formal and informal institutions governing orphans’ land rights, the major factors affecting orphans’ land rights, and what constitutes a legitimate claim on land for orphans. The field work
The European Union (EU) has been engaged in Israeli-Palestinian conflict since the early 1970’s. The Union has since then tried to gain a role in the diplomatic process by different means, but without any particularly success to be able to influence the bilateral talks. One has in recent years tried to develop the union towards a more coherent collective foreign policy in order to adopt a stronge
This thesis examines the evolution of Policy Coherence for Development (PCD) in the EU. The overarching purpose is to give an example of ideational causation in the EU, and concretely, to illustrate how a norm can cause changes to policy and to policymaking. It is argued that the PCD concept is essentially a norm, because it provides a guideline for how to prioritize between differing and often co
During the past few years we have experienced an extraordinary turbulence in the financial markets. Stock markets in free fall, countless of bankruptcies and government interventions to save huge financial institutions have been regular events. During these times the focal point has been risk management. Poor risk management has been one of the main reasons for the experienced crisis. To be able t
This econometric study examines the relationship between expected returns and volatility in ten industrialized countries. It includes three models; GARCH-M, EGARCH-M and the PARCH-M model. Furthermore, it investigates if the results change with the use of several time intervals, different data frequency and the inclusion of macroeconomic variables into the models. The results provide evidence that
Background: In the office furniture industry, providing high customer service is one of the most important qualities of the supplier. To provide high customer service, efficient logistics solutions are required to reduce lead time, increase accuracy of orders and give accurate estimates of arrival time. When it comes to Swedish export to Australia, the vast distance between the factory and
