In this report the fire safety on board vessels in the so called Victoria-class has been evaluated. A series of tests were conducted in a container at Revinge with the purpose to analyze the self-activation temperature and extinguishing effects of pyrotechnically generated aerosol (PGA) devices. The ventilations influence on the fire behavior and how the hull material is affected by fire were also
Att hantera det växande antalet vårdsökande patienter är en stor utmaning för svensk sjukvård idag. För att säkerställa att vårdsökande får en korrekt och likartad bedömning, oavsett var kontakt med sjukvården sker, har Region Skåne tagit fram Triagehandboken. Det är ett verktyg som hjälper sjuksköterskor att, utifrån den vårdsökandes beskrivna symtom, hänvisa patienten till rätt vårdnivå. En digi
Despite the growing volume of available transportation data and the efforts of many cities to increase cycling levels, there remains a lack of data on where people cycle. The use of GPS trajectories have now been used in cycle studies for several years, and more recently large, crowdsourced datasets of GPS recorded cycle trips have become available and of interest to transportation and planning de
Vårt svenska samhälle har förändrats i rasande fart och förändringstakten går snabbt och människors tillvaro har blivit allt stressigare och tuffare. S.Blomberg (2016) skriver att anmälningar om mobbning på arbetsplatserna ökar och han kopplar det till den allt tuffare arbetsmarknaden (S.Blomberg 2016-04-10). Leymann har hävdat att trakasserier på arbetet kan vara en viktig orsak till självmord oc
This paper uses an explorative case study approach to study the potential of export-led growth in the Ethiopian economy by focusing on the agribusiness sector of the economy. The paper draws on a GVC framework to analyse Ethiopian agribusiness exports and the use of the preferential trade agreement, Everything but Arms, as a potential enabler for further export growth. The aim of the paper is to s
I denna studie har 14 olika artiklar från Expressen och Aftonbladet analyserats. Artiklarna har publicerats mellan februari 2015 och mars 201 6. Genom att analysera ord, koncept, teman och innehåll generellt, har det hittats tre olika diskurser rörande missbruk och missbrukare i Sverige. Den första diskursen som hittades handlade om kriminalitet och visade en klar bild av hur missbruk var förbunAbstract Title: We and them: A discourse analysis of the media`s representation of addicts. Supervisor: Janicke Andersson Author: Therese Benjaminsson Assessor: Eva Palmblad This study analyzed 14 different articles from Expressen and Aftonbladet from a time period between February 2015 and March 2016. By analyzing vocabulary, concepts, themes and content in general, three different discou
The purpose of this thesis is to describe and analyze the development of the agriculture in the county of Skåne (Scania) and to see if there are explanations to be found why the agricultural land is exploited today. By theories from human ecology I discuss the interconnections between human, nature and society both in a historical and a present perspective. Focus is on how the landscape, humans an
In September 2015, China ended the one child policy and opened the two-child policy. However, the focus on fertility and family in public and government discourse is still links to issues of national survival and economic development. This means that women’s social roles are still defined according to the needs and interests of the state, and scripted, first and foremost, as familial. Women are ma
This thesis investigates the relationship between the human being and nature and how it emerges through the relationship between birdwatcher and bird. The aim is to study a potential contradiction in bird watching, between perceptual proximity and detached objectification that potentially inheres in the activity. Six birdwatchers are interviewed about their experiences of watching birds, in terms
Studiens syfte var att nå en fördjupad förståelse för de föreställningar som kan finnas om mobbning i skolan. Semistrukturerade intervjuer genomfördes med två deltagargrupper på fyra personer vardera, en grupp bestående av individer som blivit utsatta för mobbning under skolåren och en grupp bestående av individer som inte blivit utsatta för mobbning under skolåren. Deltagarna i den utsatta gruppeThe purpose of the study was to achieve a deepened understanding for the ideas and conceptions of bullying in a school environment. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with two groups of participants, one group made up of select individuals with experiences of school victimization and one group made up of select individuals lacking those same experiences. The participants in the former group
Lowering of groundwater level may cause saltwater intrusion in coastal aquifers. Since decrease in groundwater recharge rate and overpumping lower groundwater level, recharge rate and pumping rate are main factors of saltwater intrusion In the study area, the land-use has been changing since a university campus was newly constructed. Therefore, there is concern that this rapid land-use change will
The aim of this Bachelor thesis was to investigate how depression is portrayed in children's picture books regarding normality, gender and motherhood. The study was implemented using Narrative Method and is based on four picture books written in Swedish. Our study shows that depression is portrayed as something divergent and something that prevents people from functioning in their daily life a
Kiralitet (från grekiskans cheiʹr ’hand’) är en symmetriegenskap som är viktig bland annat inom kemin. En kemisk förening kallas kiral om den skiljer sig från sin spegelbild. De två spegelbildsformerna (även kallade enantiomerer) förhåller sig till varandra som en högerhand till en vänsterhand – hur du än vrider och vänder på den ena kan du inte få den att överlappa med den andra. Två enantiomererTwo novel pseudo-Cs-symmetric heterobimetallic bissalen complexes have been synthesized, one containing chromium and cobalt and the other containing chromium and manganese. The design is based on a previously unexploited method; breaking the symmetry of an achiral meso-ligand by insertion of two different metal ions. The synthesized complexes are expected to catalyze the asymmetric ring-opening of
This report covers the process of a project that resulted in a future concept for an autonomous bike-sharing system. It started with a desire to do transportation design and to explore the future of public transit and the role of the bicycle in it. The research phase started with trying to form an understanding of the current public transportation situation for cyclists and also looking into futur
Pupil dilation is a reliable measure of cognitive load, and many studies have shown this effect in relation to various memory tasks. Interference from irrelevant memory traces encoded in the past lead to difficulty retrieving recent, sought after memory traces, and increased cognitive load. This investigation showed a significant decline in performance during buildup of interference and a signific
The aim of this study has been to highlight individuals own experiences of the recovery process from exhaustion disorder. By taking part of their experiences advancement and obstructive, internal plus external factors that has been decisive for their recovery could be identified. To answer the aim a selection of six autobiographies about recovery from exhaustion disorder was made. A text analysis
Syftet med studien är att ta reda på vilka kunskaper som socialarbetare har när det gäller nära relationer med våld mot kvinnor med funktionshinder. Jag har gjort en kvalitativ studie med intervjuer, och jag har gjort fem intervjuer med socialarbetare från fyra kommuner i västra Sverige. När det gäller relationer med våld mot kvinnor med funktionshinder, har jag funnit olika typer av kunskap, somThe purpose of the study is to find out what experience the social workers have of violent relationships involving women with physical disabilities. I have done a qualitative study with interviews, and I have done five interviews with social workers from four municipalities in Western Sweden. I have tried to find out what the different types of knowledge are, and to what degree this knowledge is
Översvämningsmodellering Idag används matematiska modeller, i form av datorprogram, för att simulera konsekvenser av framtida översvämningar. Det finns en stor uppsjö av modeller med olika möjligheter och begränsningar, så hur går vi egentligen till väga för att välja modell? Översvämningar hör till de naturliga katastrofer som gör störst skada. Mellan 1998 och 2009 krävde de 216 största översväHydraulic models can be used to predict the consequences of flooding events. In this project, three hydraulic models were constructed using the software HEC-RAS, and compared through a case study on Höje river catchment. The models include (i) a 1-dimensional (1D) model, where river and floodplain flow is modeled in 1D, (ii) a coupled 1D-2D model, where river flow is modeled in 1D and floodplain f
Trollsländor i stafett över säsongen En härlig vårpromenad, citronfjärilen fladdrar förbi längs stigen och i himlen flyger tranorna trumpetande norrut. Två månader senare, samma stig. Nu är det inte citronfjärilar och tranor som möter dig, istället ser du en blågrön mosaikslända disciplinerat patrullera fram och tillbaka längs med stigen. Vad är det som gör att vi får så olika upplevelser beroeA species phenology is central to its ecology. Phenology is linked to development time and in extension size. Phenological differences can be found in both inter- and intraspecific comparisons. Sexual dimorphisms in phenology (protandry and protogyny) has been linked to sexual size dimorphism (SSD). In this study I use odonates, popular model organisms for studies of development and sexual dimorph
In this essay I have tried to study and examine how users of illegal narcotic substances reach out for help and support on Drogakuten, a sub forum on the message board Flashback forum instead of turning to the health care system. I have tried to look at the interaction between the members to see if there is a harm reduction philosophy present on the board. I have also tried to analyze Drogakuten a
