According to the Act on Accessibility to Digital Public Services (2018:1937), if you have a website in the joint web solution for Lund University, you must provide an accessibility statement for your website. You also need to provide a form for reporting accessibility issues. Ready-made form pages for these are available in Drupal linked to your website, and on this page we will go through how to

Image quality has always been a matter of great importance for anyone working with or consuming images and videos. Images and videos are, in general, for human consumption. Thus, image quality is essentially a subjective attribute of an image. Though there exist both objective and subjective approaches to assessing image quality, objective results may not correlate well with subjective resultImage quality has always been a matter of great importance for anyone working with or consuming images and videos. There exist both objective and subjective approaches to assessing image quality. Example metrics of the former include PSNR and SSIM, both of which mathematically compare pixels of the original image with the equivalent pixels of the distorted or changed image. Objective methods are f

The utilisation of biomass instead of fossil resources is an important alternative for the transition into a sustainable society. Biomass, owing to its primary constituents—cellulose, hemicelluloses and lignin—has the potential to replace many products that are produced from fossil resources today, including plastics, textile fibres and fuels. To fully exploit this potential, all of the componentsThe utilisation of biomass instead of fossil resources is an important alternative for the transition into a sustainable society.

Popular Abstract in English In our current world, the exponential growth in demand for smaller and faster devices leads to the fact that we will eventually face the problem that traditional semiconductor technologies will reach their limitation in terms of size and speed. Humanity's consciousness to tackle the global ecological issues in the next decade, will demand the substitution of all non-reuThe work presented in this thesis addresses the investigation of the electronic, magnetic, and structural properties of late transition metal complexes supported on various surfaces. The research is aimed at studying the interaction between the molecules and the support, together with the intermolecular interaction. This knowledge is essential e.g. for the development of organic molecule-based dev

In Swedish schools, a warm lunch is served every day. The lunch is prepared in a large-scale food service system and includes steam-cooked potatoes several times per week. The potatoes are often industrially pre-treated to facilitate the handling and logistics required to cook hundreds of meals in a couple of hours. During the industrial pre-treatment, the potato tubers are usually peeled by abrasIn Swedish schools, a warm lunch is served every day.

Forecasting foreign exchange rates and financial asset prices in general is a hard task. The best model has often been shown to be a simple random walk, which implies that the price movements are unpredictable. In this thesis models that have been somewhat successful in the past are developed and investigated for different forecasting horizons. The aim is to find models that significantly dominate

Countering the effects of human-induced environmental threats around the world is more urgent than ever. At the same time the power of companies has increased in the last decades. Activities of companies are capable of affecting human health negatively and in some cases the effects are so severe as to give rise to human rights violations. The question that is asked in this thesis is whether this p

Circular building design could significantly reduce the environmental impact of buildings and the pressure on natural resources. However, most buildings today are not designed according to the principles of the circular economy. Most literature has focused on either methods for quantifying the lifecycle analysis of buildings and materials, or on innovative circular building materials, but not much

In football, as well as in most sports, the question about politics being within it are highly debated. Questions related to nationalism, homophobia, racism, and sexism are all seen as permeating the sport. This is simultaneously topics that is facing resistance, especially through anti-racism-, and pro-LGBTQ+ campaigns. Although, the question remains, and football organisations are trying to deal

Popular Abstract in English Since 1947 when the first transistor was invented, electronics was transited into an unprecedented era. Different from a resistor that only has two terminals with the applied voltage and flowing current always obeying Ohm's law, a transistor has the third terminal in between, called "gate", which is made by, for metal-oxide-semiconductor field effect transistors (MOSFETThe emerging nanowire technology in recent years has attracted an increasing interest for high-speed, low-power electronics due to the possibility of a gate-all-around (GAA) geometry enabling aggressive gate length scaling, together with the ease in incorporating high-mobility narrow band gap III-V semiconductors such as InAs on Si substrates. These benefits make vertical nanowire transistors an a

17 april 2026 14:00 till 15:00 | Seminarium MAX IV and ESS, Lund’s large research facilities, are now part of the city’s profile – in more ways than one. Recent debate has highlighted the “go ahead” for ESS and costs for operating MAX IV. And there are many other sustainability questions to consider – both for researchers and society. Welcome to a slightly different fredagsfika, where researchers
