We develop a framework for categorization in games, applicable both to multistagegames of complete information and static games of incomplete information.Players use categories to form coarse beliefs about their opponents’behavior. Players best-respond given these beliefs, as in analogy-based expectationsequilibria. Categories are related to strategies via the requirementsthat categories contain a

This thesis is using the theory of participatory democracy to show how one can work to increase the participation in the society, between elections as well as during elections. For a couple of years now many traditional democratic countries have been struggling with low voting rates. Hence this, I find it interesting to study what has been done to cope with this problem. The government in Sweden h

The municipality of Olofström is intensifying the co-operation with Sölvesborg and Karlshamn, the two other municipalities in the west of Blekinge. They co-operate in two local federations and for the moment negotiations are going on about a third local federation in continuation school, but the municipalities do not agree. The aim of this thesis is to examine why Olofström co-operate with Sölvesb

A sample of Swedish rape cases (n = 28) that occurred during the years of 1998 and 2002 were selected with the primary objective of discovering differences in the behavioral structure of the offender depending on the nature of any prior relationship with the victim. Three offender categories were established: Intimate, Familiar and Friend. These were then used as boundaries for behavior elicited b

This thesis aims at presenting the semantic domains of the numeral classifiers in Kammu by analysing the group of nouns that each classifier can be used with. As some alternations are possible due to semantic or pragmatic reasons these must be considered as well. The work is thus descriptive, but some typological comparisons will be undertaken, mainly based on Aikhenvald's Classifiers (2000) a

Denna rapport är framtagen som en del av kursen Brandteknisk riskvärdering (VBRN70), som ges vid Lunds Tekniska Högskola. Objektet är en idrottshall i Halmstad, kallad Söndrumshallen. Syftet med rapporten är att utreda personsäkerheten vid ett brandtillbud och målet är att undersöka om Söndrumshallen kan utrymmas på ett säkert sätt vid brand. Vid behov ska även åtgärdsförslag ges. Söndrumshallen bThis report is a part of the course Fire Safety Evaluation (VBRN70) at the department of Fire Safety Engineering at Lund University. The object is a sports center located in Halmstad, Sweden and is called Söndrumshallen. The purpose of this report is to evaluate the occupants’ safety in case of fire and to suggest measures for improvements of the fire protection systems. A field trip to the gymnas

Energy harvesting enables products to become more self-sufficient of power and offers the possibility to avoid battery exchange and power cables. The performance and applicability of the most promising or popular small scale energy harvesting technologies are investigated in this thesis. The focus lies on the amount of potential energy that can be harvested and how limited the technology is to a s

The B-format is an audio format capable of reproducing full spherical surround audio, meaning sounds can appear as if coming from any direction around the listener. This thesis investigates an approach to quantify and manipulate the spatial information carried in B-format audio signals. It describes an analysis method and a corresponding model for quantifying the spatial data. Two types of appli

This report has investigated which type of risk analysis methods that can be used in an early design phase in a unique facility from a time and quality perspective. Two planned underground facilities for the HL-LHC at CERN have been used as a case study. The methodology is an action research study with information gathered from a literature study and survey. Six different risk analysis methods hav

Sedan den första generationen av mobila nätverk lanserades i början av 80-talet har en ny generation utvecklats ungefär vart tionde år. Med ett alltmer digitaliserat samhälle har användningen av de mobila nätverken ökat drastiskt. Ökningen ställer nya krav på nätverkens kapacitet där den senaste generationen, 5G NR, är utvecklad för att tillgodose dagens och kommande års behov. Dessa behov innefatAs the demand for higher data rates and lower latencies increase, together with the use of higher frequency bands, MIMO and beamforming have become an essential part of the 5G NR technology. Calculating the beamforming weights is a costly process, and reducing the frequency resolution of the weight calculations would save a significant amount of computational power. Which resolution is suitable to

In this paper, I reflect on the way entrepreneurs evaluate business ideas to either pursue them or let them go. I reflect on the efficacy of the current theoretical proposals in the field of Entrepreneurship when applied on their own and combined, in the context of new business ventures. The motivation behind writing this reflection comes from the several occasion when I have had to evaluate the f

Använda immateriella rättigheter för att öka ett företags hållbara påverkan Immateriella rättigheter är verktyg för att stimulera innovation och investeringar i forskning och utveckling för att främja tillväxt och har traditionellt använts för ekonomiska intressen före miljömässig och social påverkan. Forskningsprojektet IPACST, som forskar på immateriella tillgångars roll för att accelerera en hIntellectual Property Rights, IPR, are tools to incentivize innovation and investment in Research and Development (R&D) to promote growth and are traditionally used for economic interests before environmental and social concerns. The research project IPACST has developed a business tool kit for supporting organizations in designing their IP models to increase environmental and social impact. T

One of the core purposes of the Swedish “nämndemannasystem” is to act as representatives of the public in the court systems. The representation aspect of the “nämndemannasystem” has though been declared non-existent or too weak by previous research and the general debate in society, on the ground of its pictorial composition. However, the concept of representation is not that simple as depicted by

För att kunna handskas med de stigande stressnivåerna hos skolelever är det viktigt att skapa en välfungerande lärandemiljö. Detta kan till exempel göras med olika verktyg och ett av dem är Woof Technologies ApS platform WOOF som kan användas som ett hjälpmedel för lärare i grundskolan för att mäta och arbeta med elevers trivsel och välmående i en klass. Syftet med detta arbete är att analysera ocIn order to deal with the rising stress levels of pupils, it is important to create a well-functioning learning environment. This can for example be done with various tools, one of them being Woof Technologies ApS platform WOOF which can be used as an aid for teachers in elementary school to measure and work with students' well-being in class. The purpose of this thesis is to analyze and eval

Wood is increasingly being recognized as one of the most promising building materials on the market as a result of environmental challenges. Aside from the fact that wood is a sustainable material, it has the benefit of being high-quality, strong, flexible, and speedy to construct, which makes it a much more attractive material compared to its less sustainable counterpart. The latest computational

The goal of this thesis is to present a methodology for predicting time until recovery of failed wind turbines. The necessity is motivated by the potential for more accurate wind energy export forecasts. The current approach rests entirely on having an expert examine the turbine and produce a time estimate. Due to its nature, such a prediction cannot be made immediately upon failure. Five common s
