On-site sewages systems account for 15% of the total phosphorus and 5% of the total nitrogen emissions to water bodies in Sweden, due to poor functionality and age. This study assesses the documents used in situ to investigate old on-site sewage systems. A content analysis is used to determine how effectively these documents encapsulate the Swedish environmental law and Sweden’s administrative dec
Undersökning visar att privatisering inom det sociala arbetet stadigt ökar (Statistiska centralbyrån 2016a) samtidigt visar forskning att socialarbetares inställning till privatisering generellt sett kan betraktas som negativ (Liljegren et al. 2008; Dellgran & Höjer 2005a; Dellgran & Höjer 2005b). Ökningen trots den generellt sett negativa inställningen tycks indikera på ett glapp mellan sSurveys shows that privatization in social work is steadily increasing (Statistiska Centralbyrån 2016a), while other research shows that social workers' attitudes towards privatization can generally be regarded as negative (Liljegren et al., 2008; Dellgran & Höjer 2005a; Dellgran & Höjer 2005b). The increase, despite the generally negative attitudes, seems to indicate a gap between soc

Anthropogenic climate change and environmental degradation demand humanity to depart from the growth imperative forming the economic structure of the world. In other words: Structural transformation is needed. Much of the sustainability debate in academy, politics, media and the public revolves around two paradigms: minor changes within the current system (e.g. green consumption, green growth) or

Vissa offentliga verksamheter har börjat implementera öppna intranät i syfte att skapa mer transparens för medborgare. Det finns skilda uppfattningar och åsikter om vilken påverkan ett öppet intranät har på en verksamhet. Dessa uppfattningar och åsikter är däremot varken referentgranskade eller resultat av vetenskapliga studier. Således har vi valt att undersöka hur ett öppet intranät påverkar en

The technology has advanced but the vehicle industry has not evolved at the same pace. Mechanical constructions with a steering wheel are still being used to control the steering of cars. The mechanical construction makes it harder to implement autonomous features, it adds weight and takes up space. It is commonly known that the steering wheel has been along since the early days of the car but is
This thesis focuses on the era of early film, with the aim to address an almost forgotten film language. Three aspects have been taken into account—variable frame rates, suppressed sound and hearing, and projection speeds—to analyze several examples of film to ascertain the techniques used by early filmmakers. I have also applied my findings of the techniques of yesteryear to contemporary films th
Dagens samhälle står inför stora miljöproblem genom klimatförändringar. En stor bidragande faktor är utsläppen av växthusgaser som produktion av energi leder till. IT står för en stor del av världens energikonsumtion. Detta har lett till att teknologier och praxis har utvecklats för att minska IT:s miljöpåverkan, vilket kallas för grön IT. Ett antal studier har gjorts för att kart-lägga utsträckni
Background Low fill rates of goods transportation causes low overall utilization of resources in the logistics sector. The total goods flow is expected to increase and thus CO2-emissions. Rail freight is a low emission alternative to e.g. road haulage. To counter this development, initiatives have been aiming for achieving better efficiencies and promoting rail freight. Information sharing is cons
Betong har under lång tid varit ett av de vanligaste byggnadsmaterialen och används idag i stor utsträckning till framförallt bärande konstruktioner. En bärande konstruktion utsätts för olika typer av påfrestningar och en av de mer problematiska för betong är frostangrepp. Problematiken beror på betongens begränsade draghållfasthet och att vid låga temperaturer fryser vattnet i betongen till is. EConcrete has been one of the most common construction material for a long time and today it is used to a large extent in load-bearing structures. Load-bearing structures are exposed to different types of stresses and one of the most severe is frost damage. The problem with frost damage is due to the low tensile strength of concrete. When the water in concrete freezes at low temperatures the water
