Background: An increased concern of environmental issues have made companies, including Haldex, look for new engineering and design practices to keep up with legislations and stakeholder pressure, often by analyzing products’ total environmental impact over their life cycles, in so called life cycle assessment studies. The Haldex Project Management Model is a company specific project model where H

Pålitliga simuleringar av komponenters hållfasthet kräver att materialets egenskaper studeras ordentligt. Gummi med fyllmedel uppvisar olika egenskaper beroende på tillämpning. I denna studie undersöks möjligheten att använda förenklingar vid simulering av materialets egenskaper.The aim of this study was to examine if simplified linear analysis can be used to capture the complex and non-elastic behaviour that filled rubber exhibits. Linear analysis includes both linear elastic material models and a linear solving technique. The studied part in this thesis was a hose, connecting the air-inlet and turbo in a Scania truck engine. The studied material was a filled EPDM-rubber

“Alla har en relation till odling och mat, oavsett om man kommer från Somalia, Irak eller Nydala i Malmö.” (Jimenez, 2012). Visst är det så! Att mat är något som vi alla har gemensamt och som förenar människor har varit utgångspunkten för detta arbete. Projektet har resulterat i ett sprudlande matcentrum i Nyhamnen i Malmö. Här kan människor från stadens alla hörn och besökare utifrån samlas krinThe fact that food is something that we all have in common and that it brings people together has been the starting point for this thesis work. The project has resulted in a vibrant food center in the future city district Nyhamnen in Malmö. Here people from all over the city can gather around the People’s Kitchen and Diner, a wine bar, urban farming facilities, food markets and more. The inspirati

Utsläpp av kväve i naturen är ett stort problem eftersom det till exempel kan bidra till övergödning och så kallade döda bottnar i sjöar i akvatiska och marina miljöer. Förmågan att kunna avlägsna kväve från avloppsvatten har därför blivit ett viktigt medel för att bevara och skydda miljön. Kväveavskiljning från kommunala avloppsvatten sker vanligtvis med hjälp av nitrifikation och denitrifikationEmissions of reactive nitrogen to the environment is of major concern, e.g. since it is known to contribute to eutrophication and dead sea floors in water bodies. The capability to remove nitrogen from wastewater has therefore become a critical means of preserving and protecting the environment. Conventional nitrogen removal from municipal wastewaters usually includes nitrification together with d

What level of influence should market actors be allowed to exert over consumers’ transactional decisions? While persuasive marketing is inherent to free markets and therefore uncontroversial, relatively recent research in the field of behavioural economics about systemic errors in human decision-making has shown just how susceptible consumers are to the will of market actors. Within a rapidly evol

Syftet med uppsatsen är att, ur ett rättshistoriskt perspektiv, granska hur erkännandet som bevismedel hanterats och värderats i den historiska rättsprocessen med fokus på processen I brottmål. I centrum för analysen står erkännandets innebörd och bevisvärde i förhållande till de bevisrättsliga principerna legal bevisteori respektive fri bevisvärdering. Ingående utreds också hur övriga historiska The purpose of this paper is to critically review the confession as evidence in a legal and historical perspective by looking at how it has been handled and valued historically in the lawsuit, focusing on the criminal process. The core of the analysis comprises the meaning of the confession and its value as evidence in relation to the procedural principles; the legal proof theory and the principle

The European Single Market is built on a patchwork of contract laws and according to the European Commission’s findings differences between contract laws of the respective Member States substantially complicate cross-border trade. More specifically, the fragmentation of contract laws contributes to increasing legal complexity and costs for businesses while lowering consumers’ confidence in shoppin

Management systems need to be able to stay viable in a changing environment and not become counterproductive because the surroundings have changed. The purpose of this study is to create a concept that can act as a foundation for future management systems. This concept should try to help close the gap between how the management systems are intended to be used, versus how they are actually used in

I detta arbete skapades en virtuell människomodell som placerades i ett virtuellt rum med omgivande miljö. Dessa modeller skapades i 3D-modelleringsprogrammet Autodesk 3ds Max i kombination med det digitala skulpterings- och målningsprogrammet Autodesk Mudbox. Motorn som valdes för att driva simuleringen var Unity 5. Det är en spelmotor som valdes för att ge en ökad realism över klassiska simuleriDuring this project a virtual human model was created and placed in a virtual room with a surrounding environment. These models were created in the 3D modeling software Autodesk 3ds Max, in combination with the digital sculpting and painting software Autodesk Mudbox. The chosen engine to run the simulation was the game engine Unity 5 with the reason to provide an increased realism over classic sim

In rural Tanzania, customary laws and practices have for over 50 years been the major constraints of women’s land rights and livelihood. According to customs, a man has inherent powers to own and control land, and he is considered to be the rightful heir of such resource, and a woman is not. In most cases, women get to experience such disposition in matters of inheritance, succession, and division

Under utbildningen har jag lagt fokus på de kurser som handlat om kulturhistoriskt värdefulla byggnader och miljöer. Dessa har ofta handlat om att skapa en framtida strategi för en byggnad. Vi har lärt oss att kartlägga kvaliteter och se möjligheter för framtida användning. Vi har lärt oss att värdesätta, prioritera och välja bort. Ofta har jag funderat på vad vi kommer att vilja bevara för framtiDuring my university studies, I have focused on the courses that dealt with culturally and historically valuable buildings and environments. These have often been about creating a future strategy for a building. We have learned to map qualities and see opportunities for future use. We have learned to value, prioritize and opt out. I have often thought about what we will want to preserve for the fu

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to describe the perceptions of auditors at different career stages on current management control and the work environment. In order to gain a deeper analysis of the auditors' perspective, the study has used previous empirical research and theories of motivation and job satisfaction. Thus, two research questions have been formulated to support the study.

This thesis employed several portable sensors on board an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) and manned aircraft in order to test new methods of measuring vertical profiles of aerosol particles and contribute to knowledge of aerosol distributions in the atmosphere. More data in this area is required to improve atmospheric modelling and future climate scenarios. The handheld nanoparticle detector Partec

Ungefär en tredjedel av Sveriges befolkning är friluftsaktiva i skog- och mark minst en gång i veckan. Detta intresse ökar för varje år, och under Covid-19-pandemin nådde andelen friluftsintresserade nya höjder där femtio procent av Sveriges totala befolkning aktivt deltog i utomhusaktiviteter. Men, även fast intresse för utemiljöer och naturupplevelser finns, har alla inte samma möjlighet att ta About a third of Sweden's population is active outdoors in forests and fields at least once a week. This interest increases every year, and during the Covid-19 pandemic the percentage of people interested in the outdoors reached new heights where fifty percent of Sweden's total population actively participated in outdoor activities. But, even if there is a strong interest in outdoor enviro

Sweden has been struggling with bad access to healthcare. The National Healthcare Guarantee is not fulfilled, and Sweden has low productivity numbers. One suggested solution to deal with this issue is increased healthcare production control. Healthcare production control (HCPC) is the activity to actively trying to match healthcare needs with capacity. Public authorities are advocating increased h

SOU 2014:40 innebär avdragsbegränsningsregler för finansiella kostnader, bland annat finansiella leasingtransaktioner. Grundtanken bakom detta är att utjämna skillnaderna i den skattemässiga behandlingen av eget och lånat kapital. Ett ytterligare skäl till att avskaffa avdragsrätten för räntor är att det har förekommit omfattande skatteplanering med ränteavdrag som har visat sig svår att motverka.If the proposed changes in SOU 2014:40 are implemented it will impose limitations on deductions for ”financial expenses”. This process will mean limitations for deductions related to financial leasing. The idea behind this is to lessen the difference that exists between the taxation of equity and borrowed capital. Another reason behind the proposed changes is the large extent to which the current

This thesis set the goal to contribute to the fields of diaspora studies and cultural studies from a media and communication studies angle by addressing the blank spots ‘white minorities’ and book use. White diasporas are nearly invisible within academia and very often ‘under the radar’ in society as well. Books are underresearched within media studies in favour of other media. On the other hand,

Sexuella övergrepp mot barn tillhör de mål som är allra svårast att hantera i svenska domstolar. Ofta består bevisningen i målet endast av barnets utsaga, vilket medför svåra bevisvärderingsproblem. Högsta domstolen har i NJA 2010 s. 671 fastslagit ett antal kriterier som kan vara behjälpliga vid bevisvärdering av muntliga utsagor. Vad som bland annat kan beaktas är om utsagan är lång, sammanhänga
