Studiens syfte var att undersöka hur nyanställda socialsekreterare upplevde sin introduktion vid början av ett nytt arbete och att få en uppfattning om hur introduktionens upplägg kan påverka arbetsmotivationen. Även det psykiska välbefinnandets påverkan av stress under introduktionen har granskats. Till detta användes en kvalitativ metod och semistrukturerade intervjuer genomfördes på sex socialsThe purpose of the study was to research how newly hired social service workers experience their introduction at the beginning of a new employment, and to get a notion of how the setup of the introduction may affect the work motivation. Also, how the mental well-being is affected during the introduction has been researched. The study uses a qualitative method and semi-structured interviews with si

This thesis covers optimizing the first phase of the start-up of a thermal power plant using Nonlinear Model Predictive Control (NMPC) and state estimation using an Unscented Kalman Filter (UKF). The start-up has been optimized in regards to time and fuel usage. The thesis is done as a joint project between Vattenfall and Modelon. Both NMPC and UKF are nonlinear methods and require a model of the

In modern batch plants, alarm floods overwhelming the operator is a common problem of ever increasing severity. As plant hardware increase in complexity and performance, measures such as downtime and meantime between failures, increase in importance and the need for a well-functioning exception handling routine therefore grows critical. In order to minimize downtime and hence boost production effi

Dispersal is a key process affecting population persistence and major factors affecting dispersal rates are the amounts, connectedness and properties of habitats in landscapes. We present new data on the butterfly Maniola jurtina in flower-rich and flower-poor habitats that demonstrates how movement and behaviour differ between sexes and habitat types, and how this effects consequent dispersal rat

In 1822 the Parliament of the United Kingdom passed The Cruel Treatment of Cattle Act, which today is considered to be an important forerunner to modern animal protection and anti-cruelty legislation. However, the new Enlightenment attitudes to animals stemmed from an overly anthropocentric perception of the natural world and the place of the human animal in it. At the heart of the movement agains

Even though insects have comparably small brains, they achieve astoundingly complex behaviors. One example is flying moths tracking minute amounts of pheromones using olfactory circuits. The tracking distance can be up to 1 km, which makes it essential that male moths respond efficiently and reliably to very few pheromone molecules. The male-specific macroglomerular complex (MGC) in the moth anten

Long waiting periods for asylum seekers is a problem in most European countries and the effort to harmonise the refugee politicy within the union has brought this question to the point. Everyone agrees that the asylum process has to be made more effective, also Sweden. Medical research shows that asylum seekers in Sweden are particularly exposed to mental and physical unhealthiness. My ambition wi

Real-time 3D reconstruction is crucial for immersive AR/VR but is hard to achieve with traditional photogrammetry and mesh-based pipelines due to latency and limited scalability. Neural Radiance Fields (NeRF) enable high-quality novel view synthesis but suffer from long training and slow rendering, while Gaussian Splatting (GS) achieves real-time rendering at the cost of heavy preprocessing and me

This research gives a special attention to CSR audit in China, from both theoretical and practical perspectives. The research starts with the analysis of theoretical foundation that underlies the emergence and development of CSR and CSR audit. Both stakeholder theory and principal-agent theory are applicable to explain it. In the context of these two theories, the corporate management is not only

Om man fotojoniserar en atom, dvs. sliter loss en elektron genom att belysa atomen, kommer elektronen att skjuta iväg från atomen med en hastighet som beror på ljusets energi. Dock kommer atomkärnan att försöka få elektronen att återvända, jfr gravitationen. Om dessutom ett elektriskt fält, såsom infrarött laserljus verkar på elektronen under jonisationen och efteråt, kommer elektronen rörelse yttIn this thesis, a program was implemented to study the electron dynamics of photoionization. These dynamics are probed by a streaking infrared field, that modulates the electrons' trajectories. Analytical quantum mechanical calculations for such systems are impossible without approximations or atoms more complex than hydrogen. However, using classical mechanics and Monte Carlo methods to captu

Problem: More information is needed on how a company can overcome hardship during stormy business cycles. Appropriate management strategies on how to get the business going as the dust settles is essential in order for a company to sustain on the market. Management in any recession is difficult, especially in today´s turmoil. Nonetheless, corporate strategic renewal is needed to mitigate the risk

Gender inequality persists in contemporary Europe despite decades of legal reform. Yet, the emotional bond to the nation may lead women to perceive the unequal gender arrangements as fair and legitimate, a process rooted in system justification motivation. This study examines the association between national attachment and perceived gender fairness among women, and whether this association varies

One of the main challenges as the market for fully commercial electrified vehicles quickly expands is predicting the electromagnetic interference (EMI) in traction voltage systems (TVSs) in differential mode (DM) and common mode (CM). The number of subsystems connected to vehicle TVSs is increasing, and thus, so are the electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) requirements. These requirements should ma

The “Warburg effect”, a metabolic adaptation observed in dividing cells, involves a shift from mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation to cytoplasmic glucose metabolism. This metabolic process is characterized by increased cellular uptake of glucose and glutamine, elevated intracellular pH and sodium levels, enhanced protection against oxidative stress, altered autophagy, and increased lactate pro

This chapter provides an overview of the different optical sectioning methods that enable performing three dimensional (3D) imaging of possibly complex samples. It discusses their benefits and limitations regarding their penetration depth, their imaging speed, their photo-toxic effect or their complexity. Focusing on fluorescence imaging, the chapter dives into approaches that make it possible to

Kort utvärdering av GEOC02 2014 För att utveckla kursen så behövs bl.a. dina synpunkter. Fyll i denna utvärdering och lämna in den tillsammans med tentan. Tack på förhand Leif 1. Kursens ämnesfördelning räknat på föreläsningstimmar är ungefärligen jämt fördelat på ”medicin” och ”geologi”. Ringa in vad du tycker om den fördelningen  Det är bra som det är, en lagom balans  Gärna lite mer medicinsk

nyheter 11VASABLADET söndag 10 mars 2019 För några år sedan skyltade man gärna med sina medlemskort hos olika flygbolag. Finnair, SAS och Nor- wegian. Ju mer man flög, desto fler förmåner fick man. Men på bara ett par år har pendeln svängt. I dag försöker man dölja sitt flygande så gott det går, och den som inte bryr sig om konsekvenserna av sina flygresor klassas som okunnig och omedveten. Det sa
