At present there are no concrete guidelines how to calculate the pressure resistance capacity of the timber at the load perpendicular to grain. The test options ASTM, CEN and ICO gives three different results in testing of an equal body. With this knowledge the value for the characteristic compressive strength capacity of the pressure perpendicular to the grain will be reduced to 2.7 MPa. The reduc

The whole society is digitalizing, filled with streaming services, cloud computing and an ambition of ubiquitous connectivity. To address the data demand, ultra-fast broadband, at the speeds of 1Gbps and more, is developed and deployed. Optical fibers have been long viewed as a future-proof carrier for the ultra-fast broadband. However, the physical deployment of fiber networks, including digging,
Assessment of health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in haemophilia is important in order to provide information for clinical decision making and to verify the impact of haemophilia on patients and their families. Advances in haemophilia care and prophylactic treatment have improved HRQoL for the patients and where treatment is available, patients with haemophilia have almost reached the same life
Current market trends for industrial automation are the need for customizable production, shorter time to market, and powerful global competitive pressure. Based on these trends two challenges have been identified: 1) flexible production systems and 2) integration and utilization of devices and software. Applications from both process automation, manufacturing, and robotics have been considered.
This dissertation has three cornerstones: * Haptics * Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) * Blind Users Haptics deals with controlling human movements and getting feedback through the sense of touch. A haptic interface transmits forces to a person’s hand or fingers in a way that mimics the sensation of touching real objects. Virtual haptic touch can be particularly useful for people with visual i
This doctoral thesis takes as a starting point that geographical location remains fundamental to gain competitive advantage for some types of firms and activities even though economic activity in general has become more global. The region is seen as the key level in which the innovative capability of firms is shaped, coordinated and governed. This is in line with the regional innovation systems (R
To run a Diesel engine in Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition (HCCI) mode has proved to be a highly promising approach towards reduced engine-out emissions of NOx and particulate matter. A crucial issue when utilizing HCCI is the degree of charge homogeneity that is required to achieve the desired low temperature combustion. A very well mixed charge can be created through the use of traditiona
Title: The community school of music and art in late modernity: Reservation or market? This thesis focuses on the education at Swedish community school of music and art. The aim of the study is to investigate how teachers at those schools talk about their own activities, and thereby also to explore, describe and analyse how the teaching is manifested. In the study 27 teachers from six different
Bakterier och alger behöver, såsom andra organismer bl.a. kväve och fosfor för att växa. Dessa näringsämnen är begränsande i naturen men finns i höga koncentrationer i avloppsvatten. Stora mängder näringsämnen i naturen från exempelvis avlopp kan leda till övergödning och obalans i ekosystemen. För att kunna njuta av våra sjöar, åar och bäckar måste avloppsvatten renas, t.ex. genom. biologisk reniMalaysia is one of the most developed countries in Southeast Asia, and strives to be acknowledged as a high income country by the year of 2020. According to Malaysian Environmental Quality (Sewage) Regulations from 2009 there are effluent limitations regarding nutrient emission from wastewater treatment plants.

The comprehensive use of plastic globally has raised many questions about how it will affect living organisms once it is disposed of and reaches the ecosystem. Disposing of plastic in high amounts without recycling could lead to several toxic effects for aquatic organisms and eventually humans. Accumulation of plastic for a long time leads to its aggregation and/or degradation into small sizes in
Warehouses are critical nodes in a supply chain, providing a valuable interface between supply and demand. One aspect that warehouse operations struggle with is errors which, if not addressed, will impact the customers downstream from the warehouse. One of the ways to address errors in warehouses is through technology, such as automation of processes, though these are not always effective. A new t
Generationsskiften i familjeägda företag är mycket viktiga för de inblandade parterna men kan vara problematiska. För att uppnå bästa möjliga utfall vid ett generationsskifte är det viktigt att planera i god tid. Familjeföretag är ofta fåmansföretag och generationsskiften av dessa företag omfattas av 3:12-reglerna. Enligt dessa regler har det varit skattemässigt förmånligare att avyttra sitt bolagGeneration changes in family firms are very important for the concerned parties but can be problematic. To achieve the best results for a generation change it is important to plan well in advance. Family firms are often close companies and generation changes of these companies are subject to certain statutory provisions. According to these provisions it has been fiscally advantageous to dispose a
Principen om ekonomisk dubbelbeskattning gäller som huvudregel i svensk rätt. Detta innebär att inkomster i företag som lämnas som utdelning till företagets ägare ska beskattas två gånger. Först en gång i företaget som skatt på inkomsten, och sedan ytterligare en gång när den lämnar företaget och beskattas hos mottagaren som inkomst av kapital. För ekonomiska föreningar som är att anse som kooperaThe principle of economical double taxation (not to be confused with international double taxation) is a centerpiece to the Swedish fiscal legislative system. Paid dividends are according to this principle subjected to taxation twice before they are received by a shareholder. Initially, the income of a company will be subjected to corporate taxation. Thereafter, when it leaves the company as paid
Prisutvecklingen på bostäder är något som väcker intresse på nationellt och individuellt plan. Mellan år 2008 och 2018 har kvadratmeterpriset och den genomsnittliga köpeskillingen för bostadsrätter fördubblats. Den expansiva värdeökningen är förenad med risker kopplade till hushållens skuldsättning som ökat i en snabb takt och därmed även ökat den finansiella sårbarheten. Ett alternativt sätt att Few markets are followed with such a great interest as the housing market. The development of house prices is something that intrigues on a national and an individual level, since properties are often seen as the most valuable asset in a household. Prices for co-operative apartments in Sweden have practically doubled in 2018 compared with 2008. The increasing trend in house prices is united with r
Problem description: A vast amount of research has been done on outsourcing due to the trend of outsourcing activities to low-cost countries that have influenced the manufacturing industry. However, many researchers emphasize that there is not enough research conducted on the subject of insourcing decisions. Hence, it is necessary to explore this area further to create a deeper understanding of th
As the world is changing rapidly in many ways, competition is getting increasingly fierce amongst manufacturing firms. As such, it has become more and more important for companies to properly understand the needs of their customers in order to provide enough value to be sufficiently competitive. Providing delivery and installation services which might’ve been viewed as necessary evils before have
Evolution of the aerobic iron oxidation metabolism Every living organism needs energy to survive and reproduce. We humans get our energy from food, mainly in the form of fats, sugars, protein, and perhaps some alcohol. Bacteria and other microorganisms are able to use other sources such as light and metals. In this master thesis I aim to find out how the cellular machinery needed for the aerobic
