What causes changes in management? This thesis attempts to explain governmental change in the Swedish emergency management and at the same time determine how these changes can best be explained. The Swedish emergency management has been reorganized several times over the past 30 years and it’s these reorganizations that form the basis for this study. The study is based on three different organizat
Sustainable waste management system which focuses on prevention, reuse and recycle instead of burn and bury is difficult to agree upon, design and implement. I look at why after 8 years of development the city of Sofia chose to burn and bury most of its municipal waste despite a better though more difficult to implement alternative based on the Zero Waste concept was presented. I focused on the dy
In the process of urbanization and growing cities the city´s limits are expanding, and as a result the industrial areas once located in the periphery of the city have now increased in interest. In recent decades there has been a change within cultural policy, which has altered the way in which we plan our cities and view the value of culture and creativity. This essay studies the culture within t
Soot formation in a reverse-flow partial-oxidation reactor for reforming of gasifier producer gas has been studied. The process was modeled using a detailed reaction mechanism to describe the kinetics of soot formation. The numerical model was validated against experimental data from the literature and showed good agreement with reported data. Nine cases with different gas compositions were simula
Energy-saving glass is becoming very popular in building design due to their effective shielding of building interior against heat entering the building with infrared (IR) waves. This is obtained by depositing a thin layer of metallic-oxide on the glass surface using special sputtering processes. This layer attenuates IR waves and hence keeps buildings cooler in summer and warmer in winter. Howeve
Abstract in UndeterminedEnterprise resource planning (ERP) systems are rapidly becoming a de facto standard in business activity. While large and medium-sized companies have the luxury to afford proprietary ERP solutions, small companies are struggling with resource poverty which maybe makes them consider available open source ERP products which are free from licensing fee. However, there is littl
Titel: Validering av en handledsburen aktivitetsmätare och en självskattningskala för beräkning av VO2max. Bakgrund: Fysisk aktivitet och god aerob kapacitet är kopplat till god hälsa och lägre risk för livsstilsrelaterade sjukdomar. I dagsläget anses maximalt arbetsprov med ergospirometri och gasanalys för bestämning av VO2max (VO2max-test) vara det mest exakta sättet att mäta aerob kapacitet. Su
This master’s thesis explores how a Global Manufacturing Network can be designed with predefined requirements for local final assembly at an overseas plant. This was done in collaboration with Alfa Laval, where the global manufacturing network of Freshwater Generators (FWGs) was analyzed. The study evaluated options of sourcing directly from suppliers and via the main factory to different extents.
A goal of entrepreneurship is to foster innovation through the creation of sustainable, scalable firms through a successful commercialization of their value proposal. Surprisingly there is little research on the key role sales and hence sales knowledge of the founder plays in the survival of an entrepreneurial venture. The purpose of this study is twofold. First, we aim to contribute to the wider

Homelessness has increased significantly in Sweden since the early 1990s. A national survey of homelessness in 2023 showed that 27,383 people were in one of the four homelessness situations that are used in Sweden, namely 1) Acute homelessness, 2) Institutional and supported housing, 3) Long-term housing organised by the municipality and 4) Short-term accommodation arranged on one’s own.

This report presents measuring and identifications of the process in papermachine PM4 Gruvöns Bruk, Grums.
Our intention was, except the measuring itself, to improve, if possible, the system model now used for process control with an IBM 1710 system.
The measurings were accomplished during the last two weeks of February 1969, and included six series of about 2000 samples each using a sam
In Europe, sustainability in the meat and dairy industry has emerged as an issue of great concern for society. Research and pressure centre on the agricultural component and little attention has been given to the processing industry despite the integral role it plays in the European meat and dairy supply chain. This thesis aims to fill this knowledge gap by identifying the current sustainability p

With rising powers on the global scene, foreign policy decisions are shaped by multiple theories of rationality. Culture and national identity are increasingly essential in actors’ decisions and play a significant role in foreign policy. This paper examines foreign policy rationality through the lenses of realism and constructivism, applying Mearsheimer and Rosato’s process-oriented definition of
Application-specific circuits are used to migrate computer systems from workstations to handheld devices that need real-time performance within the budget for physical size and energy dissipation. However, these circuits are inflexible as any modification requires redesign and refabrication, which is both expensive and time-consuming considering the complexity of recent embedded platforms. Therefo
One reason for the relatively small number of real-world applications of simulation in software engineering is the existing lack of guidance in creating and formulating the related models and in the isolated usage of associated techniques. In order to support both strategic and project management in software organizations, a methodology for integrated measurement, modelling and simulation (IMMoS)
