A Novel Way of Measuring Inter-Person Distance: A Study Involving an Ultrasonic Measurement Device The quantitative characteristics of people movement that form the fundamental diagram have an important role in the field of Fire Safety Engineering regarding evacuation. The fundamental diagram indicates the relation between crowd speed and crowd density (or inter-person distance) or flow of crowd a
This study is on behalf of Röke Buss and aims to identify the significant environmental impacts of the company as well as to review the environmental requirements posted by public buyers. The study is divided in two sections; the first section is a document analysis that analyses RFQs (request of quotation) of school bus services from the municipalities within Scania to identify its environmental
Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka hur en gruppinsats för unga flickor med högfungerande autism fungerade och upplevdes av deltagarna och deras vårdnadshavare. Gruppinsatsen bestod av en integrering av metoder hämtade ur Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), compassionfokuserad terapi (CFT), dans och yoga och avsåg att förebygga psykisk ohälsa hos deltagarna. Studien genomfördes genom ob
Out of town shopping is a growing business that is no longer just about the human need for food and clothes, it has also become an health- and environmental issue. Shopping centres located outside of- and in the outskirts of the city centres are raising the amount of car traffic and also the greenhouse gases. Managing these centres is thus both a global and a local issue which the municipal planne
The study looked at a group of young men convicted of violent crimes and had a particular focus on Conduct disorder (CD) as well as differences in background and treatment interventions (therapy or medication) depending on whether the person had early, late or no CD. The aim was to identify how these treatment measures differed between the groups early, late and no CD. Data to the current study ca
As there currently are not so many known studies which directly evaluate how diversity indices have been used in different contexts, following literature study was made with the purpose of investigating how three of the most commonly used diversity indices (including Shannon-Wiener’s and Simpson’s Indices as well as a certain index measuring taxonomic diversity) are representing different categori
Säkerhet ses oftast som en del av en teknisk lösning vilket gör att företag har en tendens att dedicera mer resurser till teknisk säkerhet, snarare än strategisk säkerhet. Mänskliga faktorer kan ha en avgörande negativ roll för informationssäkerheten inom företag om grunden till informationssäkerheten inte hanteras på rätt sätt. Uppsatsen undersöker kopplingen mellan modellen CIA-triadens olika de
Abstract Title: The Challenges of Employee-Driven Innovation and its Relation to Decision Structures Date of the seminar: 18th of May 2016 Course: ENTN39 Master´s Corporate Entrepreneurship and Innovation Internship and degree project (Master´s thesis 15 ECTS) Author: Aline Studemund & Joel Wallington Supervisor: Joakim Winborg Keywords: Corporate Entrepreneurship, Employee-Driven Innova
This study aims to investigate the impact of foreign aid on economic growth by using an exogenous instrument identified by Galiani et al. (2015). Researchers have through the years failed to agree on whether aid causes growth, being unable to identify an exogenous instrument that can eliminate the endogeneity problem associated with aid and growth. Galiani et al. (2015) claim to have found such an
Foreign nationals may, according to Swedish law, be placed in detention centers. That means that they are deprived of their liberty for the purpose of being accessible for the migration authorities. The person will thereby be placed in a designated premises provided by the Swedish Migration Agency, although an incapacitation in police custody or correctional facilities can also become a reality. T
During the last decades, there have been tremendous improvements in Silicon-based transistor technologies such as operational speed increase as well as size and cost reduction. However, the bandwidth in modern processors is significantly limited by the data transfer in the metallic interconnects. Inspired by the long-range telecommunication technologies, the industry is developing the field of int
Degrowth is an academic concept and activists' niche project in Europe and other early-industrialized parts of the world aiming to reframe the current sustainability challenge of declining environmental and unjust social conditions. Its emphasis is on the radical transformation of the current societal-economic structure in order to achieve inherently sustainable conditions. There are various d
This thesis concerns the current highly debated issue on the Swedish labour market, regarding the prevailing lack of integration of immigrants. Firstly, it is common that highly educated individuals find themselves at work positions where they are overly qualified in terms of education and experience, for example, when an engineer works as a taxi driver. Secondly, there is a higher rate of unemplo
Den högre utbildningen står inför IT-utvecklingen, digitalisering av salstentamen. Detta innebär att datorn är ett hjälpmedel vid en salsexamination. Inget lärosäte i Sverige har idag infört digital salstentamen fullt ut, utan endast enstaka fakulteter samt vissa kurser använder sig av IT-stödet. Denna uppsats ämnar undersöka studenters upplevda nytta med digital salstentamen samt identifiera vilk
För att minska risk för patientskador och öka säkerheten vid kirurgiska ingrepp utarbetade WHO, år 2008, en checklista som ska bidra till bättre samarbete och kommunikation mellan olika yrkesgrupper inom sjukvården. Trots gott mottagande och goda resultat av checklistans användande, visar både svenska och internationella studier att checklistan inte följs fullt ut. Syftet med studien var att beskr
The global climate is changing, mostly due to human impacts of greenhouse gases emissions. These changes in climate have lead to an increase in global warming, increasing extreme storm events and an increase in sea-level etcetera. Areas located along the coast will suffer from coastal erosion and flooding as a result of the impact from the climate changes. These impacts can lead to major socio-eco
Användbarhet i system är idag en stor faktor för om ett utvecklingsprojekt får ett lyckat utfall eller inte. Likväl går det att konstatera att implementering av ett enhetligt system inom en verksamhet kräver förändring av arbetsprocesser vilken kan få en naturlig påverkan på systemets användbarhet. Studien behandlar frågan om hur användbarhet kan påverkas i ett enhetligt informationssystem och ana
The effect of external electron acceptors, i.e. fructose and oxygen, on the growth and metabolism of L. reuteri DSM 17938 was analysed using spectrophotometry, HPLC, carbon balance, metabolic flux analysis, enzyme assays and bioinformatics. This strain does not produce much hydrogen peroxide even when 400ml/L air is sparged through the culture. The results revealed that oxygen is not a superior el
IT i skolan har ökat de senaste åren. Det läggs mycket fokus på att integrera digitala tekniker och verktyg i skolvärlden och klassrummen. I takt med detta har även pedagogers administrativa börda ökat, dels till följd av att det integreras allt mer IT och teknologi. För att ta reda på hur IT och teknologi kan implementeras så att det får en lyckad användning och kan hjälpa istället för stjälpa lä
