Som vi antydde i inledningen finns det hinder för en lyckad implementering. Vi har i vår studie lyft fram en del faktorer som ligger till grund för detta. För att lyckas väl med implementering av en förändring krävs det ett tydligt och engagerat ledarskap, en god informationsspridning i organisationen, en uppföljning av förändringar i verksamheten och ett arbete för att motivera de anställda. Det
Formulating and implementing agricultural policies are important for the development of the agricultural sector and the rural population. The process of policy making is a political bargain between politicians and citizens. The outcome of this process, the policies, cannot be expected to be Pareto efficient resource allocations since altruistic behaviour is not very likely. All participants in the
The objective of this report is to evaluate the state of the cryogenic technology in the present situation from a technical as well as an economical perspective, and to study liquefied biogas from a wide perspective; from production to end customer, to estimate its future prospects. Information from the successful implementation of biogas in Linköping will also be rused and applied in the best pos
I mer än två årtionden har vi i västvärlden haft en postindustriell serviceekonomi och vi lever idag i ett tjänstesamhälle som under de senaste åren utvecklats i allt högre grad. En stor del av de företag som idag återfinns i tjänstesektorn är professionella serviceorganisationer som arbetar med kvalificerad tjänsteproduktion. Det betyder att de tjänster som erbjuds är kunskapsbaserade produkter.
This report tries to introduce a new way to use high expansion foam in case of a fire, namely as a protection for property. The use of high expansion foam as a tool to extinguish a fire in a building is widely known in Sweden. But the tool is not the first action taken by the fire service and the knowledge of how to use high expansion foam is not very high. Information on how Swedish rescue serv
Inom primärvåden i Oxie har det sedan 2004 på försök prövats att låta människor med utmattningssyndrom få psykodynamisk gruppterapi. Målsättningen med gruppterapierna har varit att minska patienternas lidande, öka insikter gällande affekter och emotioner samt målet att de själva aktivt skulle förändra sin livssituation där det funnits behov. Varje deltagare har haft individuella samtal vid tre til
Syftet med denna uppsats är att ur ett investerarperspektiv undersöka och analysera utfallet av svenska hedgefonders avkastning i jämförelse med marknadsindex under den finansiella konjunkturcykeln 2003 till 2008, där vikten läggs på nedgångsfasen. En kvantitativ metod har används för att samla in numerisk data i form av hedgefonders historiska avkastning, som sedan tillämpas i relevanta teorier.
Syftet med denna uppsats är att genom att titta på olika modeller för oligopol undersöka vilka strategier Europas lågprisflygbolag använder sig av för att konkurrera med andra flygbolag. Spelteoretiska modeller används för att utreda hur lågprisflygbolagen konkurrerar med olika strategier på en oligopolmarknad. Detta underbyggs empiriskt genom en multipel regressionsmodell som testar vilka av dive
Food grain markets are special in the sense that farmers will, likely, be consumers of the crops they produce. This study examines smallholder market participation on the Ugandan maize market, and, furthermore, explores possible connections to rural poverty. A probit model of market participation is employed, and I work with data from a household survey conducted between 1999 and 2000. A number of
This thesis describes an energy mapping of the factory of Trioplast Landskrona AB och Trioplanex International AB and suggestions on how to make it more energy efficient. The purpose is to lower the company's energy utilization and costs. This is done by doing the energy mapping through ocular surveys, interviews, studies of literature and gathering of information from the staff of the factory
This essay is an overview about research in EE, Expressed Emotion, during the years of 1972 – 2008. This concept comes from research on schizophrenia where it became apparent that in families having high EE, as exemplified by hostility, criticism and overinvolvment, the patient had a larger risk of recurrence. To evaluate EE most often the Camberwell Family Interview is used. The concept of EE has
Sveriges kommuner har efter 1995 års psykiatrireform ålagts att sörja för att personer med psykiskt funktionshinder ska få en meningsfull sysselsättning. I studier har det visat sig att arbete ofta upplevs som en meningsfull aktivitet av psykiskt funktionshindrade. Få studier är dock gjorda som fokuserar på hur personer med psykiskt funktionshinder upplever sysselsättning som är arbetsinriktad och
The project aims to estimate Malmö Airport's cooling demand, give a proposal on how to optimize the cooling system and investigate new technical solutions for comfort cooling production.
When I began to study at the Academy of Music in Malmö, I found myself in a playing situation where I could not bring my full amplifier rig but just my electric guitar to ensemble lessons. Since I was familiar with my sound, I found difficulties to play on other amplifiers. So I began to research and learn on electric guitar and amplifier's world all over again. Many times I felt the frustrati
This paper sheds light on the increasingly relevant question of Chinese cyber nationalism and its implications for China and the World. The paper’s aim is to explore the role of Chinese cyber nationalism in defining the Chinese nation and Chinese national identity in the 21st century. It argues that, within the realm of nationalist discourse on the Internet, Chinese netizens are actively challengi
The purpose of this Master’s thesis is to model the short-term association between the number of strokes recorded per day and an increased daily mean level of particulate matter, PM. A short-term association means that the occurrence of stroke is related to the content of PM in the air the same day and up to seven days prior to the stroke (lag 0 to lag 7). Previous studies show that there is a sig
Background Tetra Pak manufactures and distributes so called VTIS facilities for sterilization and pasteurization of for example milk and ice-cream. These VTIS facilities uses a common sterilization process called ultra high temperature (UHT) treatment. UHT treatment involves heating the product to 130-150ºC for one to six seconds depending on type of product. In the VTIS facility the temperature r
The purpose of this Master’s Thesis is to develop a model for numerical simulations in order to kinetically characterize different Medium Calorific- Low Calorific Value (MCV-LCV) fuel gas mixtures. Adding fuel components with a very low heating value or inert species affect the stability of the standard gas turbine combustor design. Siemens Industrial Turbomachinery (SIT) believes that increasing
Den samlande gemensamma bilden av ett folk, den s.k. nationella identiteten, används för att legitimera nationalism. Alla politiska intressen kan använda sig av nationalismen på grund av dess relation till ett folks gemensamma identitet. I linje med en sådan politisk teori presenterar den här magisteruppsatsen thailändsk nationalism. Det är politisk metod som ligger bakom nationalistisk propagandaNational identity, the unifying image of a people, is used to legitimate nationalism. Because of its relationship to a populations’ common identity any political side can make use of it. This essay presents Thai nationalism in line with this political theory. Behind nationalist propaganda we find a political method. The elite holds the political power and also the contemporary key to how inclusive
The realisation that climate change will have serious effects on human life has activated the wider human rights community, which is now searching for an entrance into the global issue of our time. So far, most efforts by human rights practitioners have been concentrated on the overarching problem of global injustice, which relates to the right to development. However, in estimating the effects
