Denna uppsats är en kvalitativ fallstudie som undersöker svenska fotbollssupportrars kommunikation på Instagram. Problemformuleringen grundar sig i den motsättning som uppkommit mellan supportrar och polismyndigheten. Denna motsättning handlar bland annat om den uppmärksammade Villkorstrappan, användningen av illegal pyroteknik men även om påstådda fall av övervåld mot supportrar. Organiserade sup
The Disproportionate Burden-Expense Exception within the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework is allowing certified organisations to refuse access requests based on organisational cost or burden. The thesis is examining how this exception affects the ability of EU controllers to fulfil their obligation under Article 15(3) GDPR, when employing a U.S. processor. To answer this question, the thesis is exam
Replacing fossil fuels with renewable energy sources, such as offshore wind, is crucial to mitigating climate change. The ambitious federal targets on offshore wind set by the United States’s (US) Biden Administration will, however, increasingly impact the 129 million citizens living within local communities in coastal regions. Achieving social acceptance is therefore critical to reaching the US’
Biochar, a black carbon created from agricultural waste or residues, is primary an agricultural tool to improve soil health via moisture and nutrient retention with the added benefit of sequestering carbon. As global actors search for carbon dioxide removal (CDR) methods, biochar is increasingly promoted especially in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) where smallholder farmers are largely affected by clima
Denna rapport är framtagen som en del av kursen Brandteknisk riskvärdering (VBRN70), som ges vid Lunds Tekniska Högskola. Objektet är en idrottshall i Halmstad, kallad Söndrumshallen. Syftet med rapporten är att utreda personsäkerheten vid ett brandtillbud och målet är att undersöka om Söndrumshallen kan utrymmas på ett säkert sätt vid brand. Vid behov ska även åtgärdsförslag ges. Söndrumshallen b
This thesis aims to explore the role a private network of investors can play when addressing and investing in the Sustainable Development Goals. The network explored is the Sida facilitated network Swedish Investors for Sustainable Development. The network was created in 2016 and has since worked to increase the knowledge among the members regarding how they should invest more efficiently in the S
Funktionella somatiska tillstånd (FSD) är vanliga och funktionsnedsättande tillstånd som ofta lämnar patienter fångade mellan otillräckliga medicinska förklaringar och begränsade psykologiska behandlingsalternativ. Internetbaserad emotional awareness and expression therapy (I-EAET) är en lovande intervention för FSD. Få studier har dock undersökt den subjektiva upplevelsen av att genomgå I-EAET – Functional somatic disorders (FSD) are common, debilitating conditions that often leave patients caught between insufficient medical explanations and limited psychological treatment options. Internet-based emotional awareness and expression therapy (I-EAET) is a promising intervention for FSD. However, few studies have examined the subjective experience of undergoing I-EAET—particularly among thos
This study explores how Thai women in Sweden, working in the massage and wellness sector and members of the ThaiWISE initiative, navigate social stigma and negotiates their identities in the context of migration. Drawing on five semi-structured interviews, the study examines how these women manage the persistent association between Thai femininity and sex work, despite working in safe and regulate
A growing world population confronts humanity and the planet with several challenges due to its increased demand for food, space and energy, implying changes in land use. While agriculture currently provides enough food, it is destroying biodiversity and hence aggravates the planet ́s vulnerability to climate change. A paradigm shift might therefore be needed. Applying a political ecology lens, co
Voluntary carbon markets (VCM) have grown significantly over the past years. However, the VCM is facing a ‘credibility crisis’ due to governance, technical, and market issues. Notably, despite the significant role of credibility in the VCM, a lack of systematic assessment frameworks in this area is discerned. To address this knowledge gap, this thesis set out to build, test, and evaluate a framewo
Objective: This review aims to consolidate contemporary literature examining the impact of physical activity (PA) and exercise on sensitisation and pain perception in individuals with chronic non-specific low back pain (cLBP). Methods: A semi-systematic approach was employed, utilising Pubmed and PEDro databases for the period between 2013-2023. Eligibility criteria included randomised control tri
Vehicle-to-everything (V2X) is a promising power storage solution for the challenges succeeding the Swedish renewable energy transition. Although, it is a niche innovation facing obstacles such as inadequate infrastructure, uncertainties of battery degradation and a lack of appropriate standards, which hinders its development. This thesis explores the business case for V2X for X Shore’s electric b
Biodiversity is today rapidly decreasing, and one of the main threats is land use intensification in forest landscapes. By improving the forest quality in the surrounding landscape of protected areas, the level of biodiversity could increase, and green infrastructure areas have been proposed as a method in Sweden. These areas are called Valuable Forest Areas (VFAs), and contain high densities of s
Large-scale restoration projects are being increasingly used to address land degradation and global climate change. While these initiatives are promising, an overemphasis on tree planting may contribute to ecological degradation and carbon loss. This thesis critically examines the AFR100 initiative in southern Africa through literature analysis and expert interviews. By integrating perspectives fr
Uppsatsen centrerar kring två aktuella frågor: anklagelser om sexuella övergrepp i FN:s fredsbevarande operationer, och konstruerandet av könsroller. De specifika frågeställningarna för uppsatsen är inledningsvis vilka könsroller som konstrueras i primärmaterialet, vilket innefattar tre årliga FN-rapporter. Den andra frågeställningen syftar till att utreda huruvida den konstruerade, militära masku
Syftet med denna uppsats är att visa hur staden Lagos har vuxit i storlek och ökat i befolkning mellan åren 1990-2008. Jämförelser över staden för åren 1990, 1999 och 2008 har gjorts så att huvudragen i stadens tillväxt har kunnat visas och analyseras. Baserat på hur staden har vuxit och förändrats under dessa år så har även tre stycken framtidsmodeller för hur Lagos kan tänkas se ut år 2020 produThe aim of this thesis is to show how the city of Lagos has grown in size and population between the years 1990-2008. Comparisons over the city for the years 1990, 1999 and 2008 have been made so that the main characteristics of the city’s growth can be shown and analyzed. Based on this expansion future prospects for the city has been provided through producing three different scenarios on how Lag
Denna text undersöker de offentliga rättshjälpsmodellerna för icke-straffrättsliga frågor i Sverige och British Columbia (BC), Kanada. Den Svenska rättshjälpsmodellen karaktäriseras av att offentlig rättshjälp är subsidiär till privat rättsskyddsförsäkring. Undersökningen ger underlag för en komparativ analys. Med beaktande av utvecklingen sedan mitten av 1990-talet och den kritik som riktats mot This text examines the public legal aid models for non-criminal legal matters in Sweden and British Columbia (BC), Canada. The Swedish legal aid model is characterized by making public legal aid subsidiary to private Legal Expenses Insurance. The examination provides data for a comparative analysis. Considering developments since the mid 1990s, and the critique aimed at the legal aid models in bot
A search for events with one top quark and missing transverse momentum in the final state is presented. The fully hadronic decay of the top quark is explored by selecting events with a reconstructed boosted top-quark topology produced in association with large missing transverse momentum. The analysis uses 139 fb−1 of proton-proton collision data at a centre-of-mass energy of s = 13 TeV recorded d
BACKGROUND: The diagnosis of bone mineral density (BMD) abnormalities involves dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA), but few patients complete this after a fragility fracture. The assessment of BMD using Hounsfield unit (HU) measurements from computed tomography (CT) scans has been correlated with DXA results in previous studies. We aimed to evaluate the correlation between shoulder CT HU and DX
