An implementation study of a Swedish project on children's rights in India The purpose of this paper is to explore possibilities to introduce and implement a Swedish project on young women's rights in an Indian context. What factors influence the implementation process? The questions we aim to examine are obstacles and enabling factors associated with the introduction and implementation o
Due to reasons such as climate change and fuel security, the Skåne County have arrived at a clear political vision to become fossil-free. A large part of this vision is seen as the transition phase in transportation, which is also the most demanding. The challenge is how to balance between tradeoffs as well as achieve the goal without sacrificing too much on the way. In order to accomplish this re
Water availability faces increasing pressure due to economic growth, population growth,greater affluence as well as climate change. For companies, this could lead to higher businessrisks as water is often a key ingredient in their operations for example in cooling, steamgeneration and cleaning. Moreover, companies might be competing over water with otherstakeholders in the region when water scarci
Syftet med den aktuella studien var att undersöka om samband mellan workplace incivility och mental hälsa, arbetstillfredsställelse och avsikt att lämna jobbet föreligger i svenskt arbetsliv. Vidare var syftet att testa dessa samband genom att kontrollera för möjliga tredjevariabler till ett orsakssamband från workplace incivility till mental hälsa, arbetstillfredsställelse och avsikt att lämna joThe purpose of the present study was to investigate if co-variations of workplace incivility and mental health, job satisfaction and intention to leave the organization exist in the Swedish workplace. Furthermore, the purpose was to test these co-variations by controlling for possible third variables to a cause and effect relationship with workplace incivility causing lower mental health and job s
Abstract Title: Social services department’s modern centaurs – about social worker's dual role in cases of suspected crimes contribution Authors: Branislav Ros; Carl-Johan Martinsson Tutor: Lena Palvén Examiner: Elizabeth Martinell Barfoed The purpose of this study was to examine how social workers, in the social services department of economical aid, experience their dual role as helper
This report employ surveys and evacuation experiments to examine how various acoustic and optical signals attract peoples attention. The purpose of the study was to be the basis for a new Swedish standard regarding evacution signals. Initially a literature study were performed. Acoustic and optical signals were selected from the study. These signals were tested in a survey where the participants a
Kraftverksdammar används för att dämma stora mängder vatten och senare använda vattnet i elproduktion. Konsekvenserna vid ett eventuellt dammbrott kan bli mycket allvarliga och orsaka stora skador på människor, miljö och infrastruktur. De potentiella skadorna medför att säkerhetsarbetet är en stor och viktig del av dammverksamheten för att på ett så bra sätt som möjligt förhindra skador på dammar
Authors: Johannes Nöbbelin and Peter Strandkvist. Title: Addiction & Interventions, the individual solutions. Supervisor: Helena Hansson Assessor: Carina Tigervall The aim with this study was to analyze and examine the factors underlying the social secretary's choice of treatment for addicts. In order to better understand the complexities in the choices social workers face when they invest
This paper describes a pilot study aiming to map the anatomy of agoraphobia based on Lewin’s equation, B = f (P, E), stating that behaviour (B) is a function of the person (P), the environment (E) and the interaction between them, and by adapting Drottenborg’s model of sensible aesthetics describing “beautiful” and “ugly” traffic environments in relation to arousal through the basic emotional proc
Olovligt tillgängliggörande av upphovsrättsligt skyddat material genom fildelning är ett av vår tids mest debatterade ämnen. Teknikens utveckling har gjort det möjligt för enskilda personer att snabbt och kostnadsfritt tillgodogöra sig perfekta kopior av musik och film.

The report is a risk analysis of the hydrogen production plant at Ringhals Nuclear Power Plant, Sweden. The report also discusses potential hazards from the handling and storage of hydrogen gas. Principles of hydrogen gas detection and sensor technology are presented. A HAZOP-analysis of the plant is carried out, and recommendations of improvements based on the results of the analysis are made. Co
An inventory and analysis of extinguishing agents and systems. A quantitative analysis of the weight of the systems and of the damage on hull material for different fire scenarios. Tests have been carried out in cone calorimeter and simulations in HSLAB and FREIA:
A probabilistic riskanalysis of a railway tunnel in Örnsköldsvik, Sweden. Using societal risk showing the hazard of the system. The analysis indicates a high risk greater than recommended levels of acceptance according to international risk criteria. Furthermore proposal for hazard prevention in tunnels are made.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of people located in discotheques in case of fire. A quantitative fire riskanalysis (QRA) for three different types of discotheques is carried out. The analysis is based on performance based codes from which fire protection alternatives are analysed. The results of the quantitative fire riskanalysis are described as risk profiles and average risk
A serie of ten full scale fire scenerios has been analysed in a compartment with and without residentiual sprinkler. The production of carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and oxygen was measered in two different heights in the compartment during the tests. (Swedish)
A waterflow measurement device has been developed with which it will be possible to simultaeously study both amount of water applied and its effect temperature, during firefighting in an firetraining house. Major part of the applied water is used to cool the surface of the non-flaming fuel. Short showers with the nozzle does not seem to be as effective as the longer showers, regarding both time to
Evaluation of fire fighting spray nozzles when cooling hot smoke gases in a compartment fire. Computer simulations have been made concerning the fire scenario and time to reach fire control when water is applied. Total amounts of water are also calculated. Suggestions and conclusions drawn from the results are shown in the report. (Swedish)
In this report the cutting extinguisher is evaluated based on the cutting ability of carbon fibre laminate boards and the fire extinguishing ability. Laboratory tests and full scale tests have been carried out. Results from the tests, computer simulations and theories are discussed and compared. Suggestions and demands on improvement are presented.
