Problems: A driving force for change in business is the availability of enterprise resource planning systems (ERP-systems). They have a great impact on companies, not only because they constitute exceptionally large investments, but also because they hold the promise of integrating companies more closely, hence, they should be important in the pursuit of synergy. In SCA Packaging, the landscape of
Changes in Sweden’s migration and asylum policies are constantly occurring as a topic in the political debate. When a foreigner hands in their asylum application to the Swedish Migration Agency a decision must be made rather quickly. It has become a common issue for unaccompanied children to prove their identity. The part of the identity that matters the most for the Swedish Migration Agency is th
The Transient Receptor Potential, TRP, family is a group of non-selective ion channels which can be activated by harmful stimuli such as temperature, chemicals and mechanical stimuli. The channels play a crucial role in many physiological processes and it is therefore of great interest to know more about these proteins. The TRPA1 is one of many TRP channels, and a better knowledge of its function
OBJECTIVE: A main purpose of physical education (PE) in school is to promote future health. However, there is very limited evidence of the effects of PE on the adult health. We hypothesized that a low performance in PE was associated with an increased risk of health impairment by middle age. METHODS: We performed a cohort study in a community-based setting in Sweden spanning over three decades. W
Background: The natriuretic peptides play an important role in salt homeostasis and blood pressure regulation. It has been suggested that obesity promotes a relative natriuretic peptide deficiency, but this has been a variable finding in prior studies and the cause is unknown. Aim: The aim of this study was to examine the association between obesity and natriuretic peptide levels and evaluate the
This paper aims to compare and evaluate the performance of inflation forecasting performance for benchmark time series models and machine learning models. The process is performed for both a developed economy, the US, and an emerging economy, Mexico. The study examines how forecast performance compares between benchmark time series models and machine learning models, as well as how forecast perfor
Abstract Author: Anton Bengtsson and Antonio Peralta Title: To grow up on the right or the wrong side of town: A comparative study between men that have grown up in deprived and non-deprived neighbourhoods. [Translated title] Supervisor: Maria Bangura Arvidsson The aim of this paper is to highlight how masculinity can be different in different circumstances. We have interviewed four men who has be
Psykisk ohälsa är ett problem som har ökat i stor utsträckning de senaste åren och är idag en orsak till flertalet långtidssjukskrivningar i Sverige. Syftet med denna uppsats är att utreda hur långtgående arbetsgivarens rehabiliteringsansvar är då en arbetstagare drabbats av psykisk ohälsa, samt vilken möjlighet en arbetsgivare har att säga upp en sjuk arbetstagare. Rehabiliteringsansvaret har fåtMental illness is a problem that has grown extensively in recent years, and causes a majority of long-term sick leaves in Sweden. The purpose of this essay is to investigate how far-reaching the responsibility of the employers is for the rehabilitation efforts when an employee is suffering from mental disorder. The essay also examines the employers possibilities to dismiss a sick employee. The reh
The aim of this thesis is to map and explore how Swedish film archives work with archival intermediation and archival access activities, wherein the contemporary and transitional nature of film and film archives – from analogue to digital milieus – is considered. The intention is to deepen the knowledge concerning how these processes affect film archives as institutions of memory and film heritage
Cirrus clouds are high-level ice clouds covering ≈ 30% of Earth’s surface. The cirrus clouds ice crystals can be formed by heterogeneous or homogeneous nucleation, where temperatures for heterogeneous nucleation was set to -38 - -30 °C and for homogeneous nucleation below -42 °C. The study will focus on microphysical properties of cirrus clouds in the tropics, 0-30°, and the mid-latitudes, 30-60°,
The possibility of being able to examine the inside of the human body is the foundation of today’s medical diagnostics. This can be done through different imaging systems, where ultrasound is one of the most important imaging methods used. Ultrasound does not endanger the patient during examination, unlike other imaging systems that use ionizing radiation or strong magnetic fields. In order to obt
Nature has a special knack for survival. After millennia of beating the odds against an inhospitable planet, many species have found clever ways to ensure self-preservation on an often inhospitable planet. By refining special skills and working alongside other members of the ecosystem, countless species have found a stable role in the landscape. As humans, we are no different. Developing human soc
An implementation to convert one of Adobes Flash file-format (xfl) to HTML5 has been created. The problems that need to be solved for completion of this converter are. What programming language should be used that is suitable for the application and locating some form of documentation of the file-format xfl. Javascript was chosen for implementation, but a usable documentation of xfl was not to be
The aim of this study was to investigate a possible relationship between depression and memory performance, hypothesizing a decrease in performance among participants with depression tendencies. The cognitive memory task of pattern separation was tested with four different levels of difficulty by use of a computerized memory test and the self-rating MADRS-S depression scale was used to assess the
Condition Based Monitoring techniques have been developed to monitor the condition of critical components in machines. The most widely used technique to detect damage in machine components is vibration monitoring, but there are areas where other methods could be a better option. Vibration measuring can also be used as a broader search for damage in components while other methods can specify the ex
The purpose of this thesis was to introduce new and innovative solutions in the field of weapon packaging. Integration of the concept Insensitive Munitions1 (IM) in the packaging was also a main objective. The method used to achieve this thesis is a merge of the product development methods derived by Ulrich and Eppinger and methods taught in the course Designmetodik IDE062. Designer tools li
