Popular Abstract in Swedish Förebyggande miljöskyddslösningar har under flera år tillämpats med stor framgång i den tillverkande industrin. Den har dock används i mycket i liten omfattning i service sektorn. I takt med att tjänstesektorns ekonomiska betydelse ökat, har även miljöaspekten av ett ökat tjänsteutbud kommit i fokus. Denna avhandling förklarar hur förebyggande miljöskydd som ett strategPreventative environmental approaches (e.g. Cleaner Production and Pollution Prevention) have been successfully implemented in the manufacturing industry. They are, however, far from being fully adopted by all society actors. It has, for instance, not been fully embraced by the service sector. When this research project started, the initial question was whether it was possible to adopt experiences

Issue of Study: The case company, Metius, has difficulties in meeting its customers’ demands for delivery reliability due to issues in the final assembly process. A leading management control system linked to the company’s final assembly could allow the production management to act proactively and avoid more dissatisfied customers due to poor delivery reliability. Relevant literature gives little

This rapport investigates hoarding in Sweden from a fire safety perspective. The aim is to help people, who will meet people suffering from pathological collecting. A study of articles that touched hoarding was made and temperature calculations were done. Swedish building regulations, Jordabalkens chapter regarding rent and the Swedish condominium law where also examined. Hoarding leads in many ca

Young children have been identified as particularly exposed to fires. This study aims at investigating pre-school children's level of knowledge about fire and evacuation and if the level of knowledge increases after an education. The aim has also been to present guidelines of how educational materials for children of that age should be designed. The work has been conducted by interviews with p

Navigeringstjänster blir allt mer populära, men även om det finns en betydande mängd tjänster, finns det fortfarande begränsningar, speciellt för fotgängare. Fotgängare gör dagligen flera val om hur de ska hitta den bästa vägen i sin närmiljö. Att utveckla en navigeringstjänst för gående (PRNS) involverar flera viktiga faktorer. I denna studie analyseras flera befintliga nättjänster och studien viRoute network service is becoming increasingly popular. However, although there are significant amount of route network services there are still limitations especially to pedestrian network services. Pedestrians daily make decision about their navigation choices. Developing a pedestrian route network service (PRNS) involves several factors. During this study the analysis of several routing network

BAKGRUND OCH SYFTE Ett globalt företag som syftar till att långsiktigt öka sin marknadspotential, vilket Axis Communications AB gör, måste adressera utvecklingsmarknaderna i världen. Axis har tidigare haft Brasilien, Ryssland och Kina i focus och vill nu adressera Indien då den Indiska marknaden anses ha en av väldens bästa marknadspotentialer. Axis arbetar utefter sin partnermodel, vilken definie

I denna fallstudie undersöks och analyseras frågeställningen utifrån chefers upplevelser inom ett internationellt tillverkande bolag i industribranschen. Sättet att hantera både kunder och medarbetare blir allt mer betydelsefullt för att konkurrera med service. Chefernas roll blir i samband med detta avgörande för att uppnå organisatoriska mål och god extern serviceleverans. Syftet med studien äIn this case study essay, the issue is examined and analyzed on the basis of managers' experiences within an internationally manufacturing company in the industrial industry. The way to handle both customers and employees is becoming increasingly important to compete with service. The role of the managers becomes associated with this for achieving organizational goals and delivering external

Smart firefighting is a concept in which the rescue service uses technological aids to retrieve, compile and present data as part of intelligence gathering to work out their firefighting strategy. The aim of this report is to map what kind of sensors in present-day smart buildings management systems that may offer relevant data in terms of operational support for the rescue service. Interviews hav

The aim of this study was to look at introduction for staff in a social service office and the social workers experience off the first period at a new workplace. Qualitative interviews have been used as a method of investigating how social workers look at introduction in the workplace and how social workers have experience the first period at the workplace. The empirical material have been analyse

Battery energy storage systems (BESS) are becoming increasingly important for storing energy, particularly renewable energy, and stabilizing electricity grids. These systems often use lithium-ion batteries, which are efficient but pose risks during accidents. Rapid implementation of BESS has led to uncertainties in regulations and emergency response protocols. This thesis aims to identify and eval

Popular Abstract in Swedish Hur framställer Johannesevangeliet Jesus och effekterna av hans gärning med tanke på de universella och inkluderande drag som finns i detta evangelium? Hur förhåller sig dessa inkluderande drag till framställningen i övrigt och till de begränsande och exkluderande drag som också finns där, och hur ska dessa motstridiga drag i evangeliet förklaras? Denna avhandling sökeMy thesis is an analysis of exclusive and inclusive features i the Gospel of John, focusing on the inclusive elements which comprise the world and all its people. These questions are the issue of my thesis: How does the Gospel of John present Jesus and the results of his work with regard to the universal and inclusive features which are in the Gospel? How do they relate to the presentation in gene

The traditional orthosis are tight and allow minimal evaporation. A new prototype was designed. The thermal foot model tests were carried out at isothermal (Ts=Ta=34 °C) and non-isothermal (Ta=23 °C) conditions with relative humidity set to 17 and 41 %, respectively, and at air velocities of 0.25 (LVa) and 0.85 m/s (HVa). Evaporative resistance (Ret) was calculated based on foot model’s heat loss

Contamination or damage to X-ray optics is becoming increasingly problematic for beamlines at 3rd and 4th generation storage-rings and FEL sources. Carbon contamination, induced by ultra-intense photon-beams, can cause a major loss in flux, focusing power, and specific absorptions which are detrimental to spectroscopy. For new light sources, with higher coherence, intensity, and repetition rates,

BACKGROUND: Changes in Ischemic White matter hyperintensities volume (WMH) on MRI over time are associated with cognitive decline. We investigated whether changes in WMH volume over time exhibit WMH-normalized volume threshold effects on declining cognitive performance and whether these effects on cognition differ between deep white matter hyperintensities (DWMH) and periventricular white matter h

Purpose: The emphasis on early diagnosis to improve cancer survival has been a key factor in the development of cancer pathways across Europe. The aim of this analysis was to explore how the emphasis on early diagnosis and timely treatment is reflected in patient's accounts of care, from the first suspicion of colorectal or lung cancer to their treatment in Denmark, England and Sweden. Method: We

The Paris Agreement requests a substantial reduction of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. These emissions are currently mainly estimated from bottom-up inventories and process-based models of land and ocean fluxes. Another, complementary approach is based on measurements of the atmospheric GHG concentration in combination with atmospheric inverse modelling to provide the GHG fluxes. For the latter a

The sharing of digital information between phases in the planning and building process still have shortcomings. Ourstudy is performed as a test case on a construction project in a municipality and focuses on two aspects of how the sharing of building information could be improved: 1) to get a more process oriented approach to the information flow. Here we will test if the ISO-standard Product Life

The zinc finger transcription factor Wilms' tumor gene 1 (WT1) acts as an oncogene in acute myeloid leukemia. A naturally occurring alternative splice event between zinc fingers three and four, removing or retaining three amino acids (+/-KTS), is believed to change the DNA binding affinity of WT1, although there are conflicting data regarding the binding affinity and motifs of the different isofor
