In light of the growing “coherence” between humanitarianism and political actions in today’s world, does aid remain conducive to socio-economic improvement, or does it inhibit the ushering of much needed change? In the context of this study, the besieged population of Gaza organized large weekly demonstrations known as the Great Return March (2018-2020) to demand their basic political, economic an
Distribution is a part of the supply chain and refers to the steps taken to move and store a product from the supplier stage to the customer stage in the supply chain. Direct shipment is a concept within distribution and refers to shipping direct between a supplier and a retailer or customer. Distribution is considered a key driver for overall profitability of a company since it directly affects b
This thesis examines the experiences of asylum seekers in Sweden with the Swedish asylum process. Using an ethnographic research approach, asylum seekers are asked what their main issues of concern are during the asylum process? Understanding their experiences will help social workers and volunteers to improve the support they offer to asylum seekers.
The purpose of this paper is to examine levels of fatigue in a submarine crew using a modified watchkeeping schedule. By conducting a quantitative study, based on a survey carried out on a Swedish submarine crew, this paper uses a theory-consuming method in order to clarify if a modified watchkeeping schedule is able to maintain sufficient levels of readiness. This paper revolves around the thesis
Uppkopplade enheter, eller Internet of Things (IoT), blir alltmer vanliga i våra hem vilket resulterar i ett behov att fjärrstyra dem. Man kan åstadkomma detta via app- likationer som distribueras av tillverkarna av dessa IoT enheter, vilket kan resultera i att du behöver flertalet applikationer för att kontrollera dina IoT enheter. Problem kan också uppstå när man ska namnge sina IoT enheter, detAs connected devices, or Internet of Things (IoT), are becoming increasingly more common in our homes we need a way to control them remotely. Remote control can be achieved with native applications created by the providers of these IoT devices which can result in you needing several applications to control your IoT devices. Furthermore, issues can arise when naming your IoT devices, e.g. if they a
The purpose of this paper is to compare the outcome between naval gunfire support and strategic effect during the Falklands War. By conducting a qualitative case study regarding the effects of naval gunfire support and its effect on a unit combat effectiveness, using Ben Shalits Sequential Adjustment Model, the study will attempt to find out how a military unit is affected by stress and demoraliza
Att arbeta som undersköterska inom bland annat hemtjänsten är Sveriges vanligaste yrke. Stress och osäkra anställningsförhållanden är inte ovanliga för de anställda, som tillhör den grupp där sjukskrivningar på grund av psykisk ohälsa är vanligast i Sverige. Denna studie syftade till att undersöka hemtjänstanställdas uppfattningar om sin psykosociala arbetsmiljö, genom att undersöka ansträngning-bWorking as an enrolled nurse in home care and similar services is the most common occupation in Sweden. Stress and uncertain employment conditions are not unusual for its employees, who belong to the group most prone to take sick leave due to mental illness. This study aimed to examine the perceptions of home care workers regarding their psychosocial work environment, by investigating effort-rewar
Kvaliteten på kalkcementpelare, kc-pelare, varierar ofta. Det är vid design- och tillverkningsprocess svårt att säkerställa den slutliga kvaliteten och egenskaperna kan vara olika inom och mellan pelare. Den stabiliserade jordens geologiska förhållanden inverkar, liksom bindemedel och tillverkningsförfarande. I Sverige är kc-pelare en vanlig förstärkningsmetod i stora infrastrukturprojekt och det
Sedan år 1895 då Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen uppfann joniserande strålning så har den använts på många olika sätt inom sjukvården, bland annat inom bilddiagnostik. Det är viktigt att en röntgensjuksköterska har en patientcentrerad vård där information och kommunikation med patienten utgör grunden för ett bra patientbemötande. Under det korta mötet kan patienten ställa frågor angående undersökningen och
Covert surveillance officers lack special equipment to carry their essential tools during their surveillance jobs. Officers were interviewed about scenarios, needs and the current equipment as well as solutions. It was apparent that it could be problematic to carry essential tools in an organized and concealed way. A generic bag that anyone could carry without looking out of place was developed th
The Swedish Sea Cadet Corps (Sjövärnskåren / SVK) is a unique voluntary organisation with potential to greatly contribute to the Swedish society in times of crisis. The unique feature of SVK being the only voluntary organisation in Sweden that operates in the maritime domain, does not come without problems. I have in this study made clear to the reader where the problem lies and why there are prob
Automatlarm kan rädda många liv och har hjälpt räddningstjänsten att göra nödvändiga insatser på plats, även om fördelarna är många finns det larm som inte är befogade och som orsakar kostnader för samhället. Syfte med den här studien är att genom intervjuer diskutera kring automatlarm, dess för- och nackdelar och genom litteraturstudier analysera olika ingående parametrar. Material och metod: St
Artificial intelligence (AI) and mechanical imaging (MI) have been used in separate studies in breast imaging. They have individually shown great possibilities within the field of mammography, but the use of the two techniques together have never been evaluated. The artificial intelligence application used in this work was Transpara, a deep learning convolutional neural network. It distinguishes p
The modus operandi of most asset managers is to promise clients an annual risk target, where risk is measured by realized standard deviation of portfolio returns. Moreover, Markowitz (1952) portfolio selection requires an estimate of the covariance matrix of the returns of the financial instruments under consideration. To address both these problems, we develop a data-driven method for covariance
Företagets avdelning för distributionsutrustning håller på att utveckla en lösning för att packa förpackningar i ett rektangulärt mönster i öppna tråg. Lösningen använder sig av en delta-robot med ett vakuumdrivet plockverktyg för att plocka och placera förpackningarna. För att öka robustheten i lösningen vill man ta fram och testa koncept för att automatiskt, och utan operatörsinteraktion, hanter
From a security policy perspective, the grey zone area can be understood as the fact that the line between peace and armed conflict, civil and military, legal and illegal, is unclear and that there are many actors and areas involved. It is easier to observe a grey zone area activity afterwards than to predict it. Based on the theory of securitization, the study aims to describe, in a grey zone con
This work examines how the degree of responsibility, motivation and participation leads to high satisfaction in the work of technical personnel working on First Submarine Flotilla. The work is a theory-consuming case study that, with surveys and interviews, creates the basis for demonstrating through theory how high job satisfaction can be achieved. The result specifies the First Submarine Flotill
In 2018 90 billion tonnes of raw material was extracted globally. It is estimated 20% of this went to waste and with the quickening pace of global metabolism this figure is predicted to have doubled by 2060. In the context of the Anthropocene we need to reduce this incessant cycle of mass extraction and production of waste, change the production systems from linear to cyclic and prove for industri
We study the problem first introduced by Verma and Keller in 1984 of how to taper a heavy rope such that its elongation is minimized. The problem is stated as an optimization problem of a functional J[w]. Specifically we provide a proof of optimality for the solution using traditional convex optimization techniques. We also utilize the Legendre transformation when studying the Euler–Lagrange equat
Denna uppsats svarar på frågan varför två kommuner, Karlshamns kommun och region Gotland, fattade två helt olika beslut när de fick samma förslag på att genomföra en affär med projektet Nord Stream 2 år 2016, vilken skulle innebära betydande inkomster och arbetstillfällen. Affären handlade om att upplåta hamnkapacitet och lagringsytor till rör som ingick i bygget av den andra delen av Nord Stream.
