To decide what spare part item that should be kept in stock or not Alfa Laval, in the year of 2002, introduced a classification method based on picking frequency. Now it is time to make an overhaul of this method. Many different parameters are involved and Alfa Laval would like to have an evaluation of how their setup performs in comparison with other companies, universities and our own ideas. Pur

Denna uppsats behandlar frågeställningar rörande romska barn, dvs. barn med minoritetsstatus i LVU-ärenden (lagen om vård av unga). Uppsatsens syfte är att studera hur rättsväsendet hanterar LVU-ärenden som berör romska barn och att undersöka om rättsväsendet vidtar speciella åtgärder för att garantera de romska barnen sina minoritetsrättigheter. Uppsatsens har även två delysften, att kortfattat bThis essay deals with issues concerning the Romani children, i.e. children with minority status in LVU cases (the law on the care of youth). The essays main purpose is to study how the legal system handles LVU cases involving Romani children and to investigate if the judiciary is taking special measures to ensure the Romani children their minority rights. The essay also aims to briefly describe th

The production philosophy at Tetra Pak Japan is make-to-order. Although, in reality it is more make-to-stock due to the current pricing structure based on discounts for large volume orders. As a result, the inventory levels are high and the responsiveness towards customer demand is limited. Alongside, the marketplace is changing and the competition is increasing. This calls for a change in the sup

The field of public diplomacy has become increasingly dependent on the general digitalization in society, and its use of social media platforms as a mean to spread their political message to the general public. Digitalization has made public diplomacy more attainable for the masses, but it has also given states a larger responsibility in which messages they want to convey to the public. This thesi

Since its first publishing in 1954, The Lord of the Rings has been read by millions, and it has become the subject of many scholarly studies. However, one of its most famous characters, Gollum, has only been marginally examined. The aim of this essay is to counteract precisely that and examine how Gollum exists within, and in his own way embodies, the theological and moral system of The Lord of th

Due to the widespread juvenile delinquency in Sweden, attention has been brought to the need for more intrusive penalties for young offenders. Therefore, the penalty of youth probation (Sw. ungdomsövervakning) was legislated in 2021, which aims to counteract recidivism and contribute to a favorable development of young offenders. Previous literature reveals that there is no agreement in the effect

Kommersiella avtalsvillkor kan på grund av oskälighet jämkas eller lämnas utan avseende mot bakgrund av 36 § AvtL. Enligt AVLN kan sådana avtalsvillkor även förbjudas på marknadsrättslig grund. Vid tillämpningen av 36 § AvtL samt AVLN ska särskild hänsyn tas till om en part intar en underlägsen ställning i avtalsförhållandet. De aktuella lagrummen kan tillämpas på flera olika typer av avtalsvillkoAgreement clauses used in commercial contracts can be considered unreasonable in accordance with section 36 in the Contracts Act.

Styrning av partiklar med ljud och intelligenta algoritmer Det här examensarbetet handlar om att styra små partiklar i vätska utan att röra vid dem, med hjälp av ljud. Genom en teknik som kallas multimodal akustofores kombineras flera olika ljudvågor för att noggrant kunna påverka partiklarnas rörelser. Metoden är särskilt intressant inom biomedicin, till exempel vid analys av enskilda celler ellThis thesis explores a range of control algorithms for multimodal acoustophoresis, the process of manipulating particles in a fluid by simultaneously using several acoustic modes. The aim of the algorithms is to precisely guide particle trajectories in acoustofluidic systems, motivated by the demand for non-invasive, scalable manipulation techniques in biomedical applications such as single-cell a

Fideikommissen som institution har under de två senaste århundradena varit föremål för diskussion angående dess särställning som arvsrättsligt undantag. Fideikommissinstitutet tillämpades främst av adeln i de europeiska länderna och medförde att fideikommissegendom med omfattande värden kunde bevaras i en familjs ägor såsom odelad. Förordnanden med villkor om fideikommiss inrättades vanligen i tesThe fideikommiss as an institution has been the subject of discussion for the past two centuries regarding its special status as an inheritance law exception. Fideikommiss was mainly applied by the nobility in the European countries and meant that entailed properties with extensive values could be preserved in a family’s possessions as undivided. Testamentary dispositions with conditions which sti

Hur mycket som än skrivs om de svenska häxprocesserna verkar vi aldrig tröttna på att höra om dem, försöka förstå dem eller förfasas över dem. Denna uppsats behandlar en av de få, relativt outforskade, delarna i de svenska häxprocessernas historia: de processer som utspelade sig på Åland mellan åren 1666–1668. Processerna har till viss del fallit mellan forskningens stolar, då Åland inte längre tiNo matter how much is written about the Swedish witch trials we never seem to get tired of hearing of them, trying to understand them and be horrified by them. This essay explores one of few, relatively unknown parts of the Swedish witch trials: the trials that took place on the Åland Islands between the years 1666-1668. Not as much attention has been paid to these trials, probably because the Åla

Many megatrends, including globalization, digitalization, and urbanizationhave led to a lack of housing but a surplus of other types of facilities in manyplaces globally. The global covid pandemic and associated rise in remoteworking further aggravated the situation when it comes to office buildings. Atthe same time, the pressing environmental crisis is forcing us to look for waysto better utilize

This paper describes a solution to the application of rapid detection of bicycles in low resolution video. In particular, the application addressed is from video recorded in a live environment. The future aim from the results in this paper is to investigate a full year of video data. Hence, processing speed is of great concern. The proposed solution involves the use of an object detector and a sea

Emotions at War: Sensibility and emotional strategies among Swedish officers, 1788-1814 This thesis studies the relationship between the emotional sufferings of Swedish officers in wartime during the period 1788-1814 and the various mental strategies they employed in order to deal with those sufferings. The study is positioned within the field of research commonly refered to as the history of em

In this thesis, we develop and examine decision models intended for traffic engineering analysis of multiservice networks. Two important issues are addressed, namely call admission and routing control in multiservice broadband networks, and overload control in distributed-memory systems. Multiservice broadband networking generally refers to the ability to handle widely disparate traffic streams s
