Introduction: Born globals are increasingly prevalent and very successful in doing business globally, which is quite remarkable when keeping in mind they operate with limited human and financial resources and international business experience. They have to utilise capabilities in a unique way in order to internationalise rapidly and successfully. Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to gain insig
In Sweden the number of cars per person has increased since the mid-20th century. With negative impacts on both health and the environment, private ownership of vehicles represents one of the major challenges in urban transport. To move travelers from privately owned vehicles to public transport has shown to be beneficial in reducing carbon emissions. However, in order to create policies that attr
The purpose of this thesis is to construct a passive bistatic radar system using two USRP N200 software defined radios and two ordinary TV-antennas. Several auxiliary components were used in order to align and calibrate the devices including an octoclock CDA-2990, switch and signal generator. Several tests were made to verify that the sampling started simultaneously and that no significant phase s
Ett byggprojekt beskrivs ibland som ett skapande kaos vilket syftar på det faktum att ett byggprojekt är i ständig rörelse. Människorna som är inblandade i ett byggprojekt är ofta där under olika villkor, olika tidsperioder och med olika syften. Det avgörande för att byggprojektet ska fortskrida på ett effektivt sätt med god motivation hos de anställda är att det finns en tydlig ledare på plats. LA construction project is sometimes described as a creative chaos, which refers to the fact that a construction project is in constant motion. The people involved in a construction project are often there under different conditions, different periods of time and with different purposes. The decisive factor for the construction project to proceed efficiently with good motivation for employees is th
In imaging, obtaining high contrast is of great importance. When imaging through scattering media, optical filtering techniques are used to filter out multiple light scattering which causes loss of contrast. Imaging through scattering media is used in Bio-Medicine when looking through human skin; in characterization of spray systems in Combustion Engineering as well as in other applications where
Newly constructed building stocks have been decreasing in last decades; thus, renovation and retrofitting represent a large amount of opportunities to upgrade the building performance and energy efficiency of building assets in their life span, as well as to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. An overall assessment of a lighting retrofit project can support to judge the quality of a retrofit as good
Urban population growth leads to denser cities where buildings are being constructed closer to sources of vibration like motorways, railways and tramways. The risk of disturbing vibrations is thereby increasing which could affect residents and sensitive equipment, for instance equipment used in hospitals. In the Master’s thesis, the effect of structural design on traffic-induced building vibrations ha
Studiens syfte var att undersöka effekterna på resurser och lönsamhet när en mellanhand standardiserar en fundamental resurs. Studien grundade sig i en kvalitativ flerfallsstudie av abduktiv ansats. Primärdatan erhölls genom semi-strukturerade intervjuer med restauranger i Lund. Dataanlysen genfördes sedan med hjälp av första- och andranivås kodning. Undersökningen utgick från den resursbaserade t
Utsläpp av industriellt avloppsvatten till avloppsreningsverk kan medföra problem då det ofta innehåller förhöjda koncentrationer av toxiska ämnen jämfört med avloppsvatten från hushåll. Industriellt avloppsvatten innehåller även ofta kemiska ämnen som är specifika för produktionen i fråga. Det mottagande reningsverket är inte alltid utformat för att rena dessa ämnen, vilket gör att de riskerar atThe discharge of industrial wastewaters (WWs) to wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) can be problematic due to their sometimes elevated concentrations of toxic compounds compared to municipal wastewater. Also, industrial WWs often contain compounds that are unique to the specific production, and the receiving WWTP is not always designed to remove these compounds. Hence, there is a risk that these

Denna studie syftar till att undersöka hur svenska körer arbetar med det sociala klimatet, om atmosfären i kören påverkar det musikaliska resultatet och i så fall på vilket sätt. En enkät skickades ut till körsångare från 10 körer och som ämnade belysa körsångarnas perspektiv. Kvalitativa intervjuer hölls med tre aktiva körledare för att få deras upplevelser och tankar inom ämnet. Studien innehålThe purpose of this study was to investigate in which ways Swedish choirs work with the social environment in the group, if the environment in the choir has an impact on the musical result and in that case in which ways. A survey, which was meant to investigate the perspective of the choir members, was sent to singers from ten different choirs. Qualitative interviews were held with three professio
Long working hours and burnout as well as other stress-related symptoms are common concerns amongst knowledge workers. An obvious solution might be to reduce working hours, for example, to a 30-hour workweek. Hence, this explorative study is interested in exploring the effects of the 30-hour workweek on knowledge workers. Object of study is a digital marketing agency; eleven semi-structured interv
En bostadsrättsförenings styrelse ska pröva varje medlems förmåga att uppfylla sitt ekonomiska åtagande mot föreningen innan inträde beviljas. Detta åtagande är primärt bestående av erläggande av den i stadgarna specificerade årsavgiften. Om en sådan bedömning leder föreningen att misstänka att den sökande inte klarar av det ekonomiska åtagandet kan medlemskap avslås enligt 2 kap. 3 § 1st BrL. DenA co-operative housing associations board shall try every potential members ability to fulfill its economic commitment to the association before entry is granted. The economic commitment is primarily consisting of paying the annual fee required by the co-operative housing associations statutes. If the assessment of the subjects economy is not to satisfaction, membership can be denied according to
Different material is used today for packaging; all of them have different environmental problems. Depending on your perspective one material might be more beneficial than the other. In this study an energy perspective is used when looking at production of the material, the manufacturing of the package and transport of the package in its lifecycle and recovery processes. The materials studied were
Miljonprogramseran kallas den byggnadsperiod som sträcker sig från 1965-1974. Detta var en tid i svensk byggnadshistoria där storskalighet och effektivt byggande förespråkades. Under perioden uppfördes 1 005 578 bostäder i Sverige och idag består en fjärdedel av Sveriges bostadsbestånd av bebyggelse från 1960- och 70-talet. Den höga byggtakten under denna tidsperiod möjliggjordes genom att husen eDuring the period 1965-1974 Sweden underwent a major housing development program, collectively referred to in Sweden as Miljonprogramseran (the million program era). These years where characterized by the idea of building on a large and effective scale. During this period 1 005 578 various forms of housing where constructed, and today a quarter of Sweden’s housing consists of projects dating back
Requirements from consumers and governments to produce more sustainable products have increased during recent years. Even if products are certified, one cannot make sure companies meet these requirements, since no chain of events can verify this exists. The transportation industry lacks certification and information on whether a product is transported in a sustainable way. The food industry, on th
