Syftet med denna kvalitativa studie var att få en fördjupad förståelse av hur det är att ha hypotyreos. Datainsamlingen gjordes genom semistrukturerade intervjuer och för tolkningen användes tematisk analys. Sex deltagare intervjuades med lindriga till mycket svåra symtom. Studiens resultat har funnit områden där vårdens bemötande brister gentemot sköldkörtelsjuka med kvarstående symtom. Råd baserThe goal of this study was to reach a deeper understandig of what it is like to have hypothyroidism. Data was collected through semi-structured interviews and interpreted using thematic analysis. Six participants with minor and severe symtoms were interviewed . The study found areas in which professional health care, recieved by patients with hypothyroidism who are experiencing residual symtoms, w

I den aktuella studien undersöktes barns förmåga att med hjälp av verktyg använda tidigare kunskaper för att lösa en ny uppgift, genom en så kallad analog överföring. Uppgiften ställde krav barnets förmåga att bortse från vilseledande visuell information, till förmån för verktygets funktionalitet. 90 barn mellan 24 och 55 månader rekryterades från sju förskoleverksamheter i en svensk kommun. BarneChildren’s ability to access previous knowledge and use tools when solving a novel analogical task was examined. When confronted with the task, the children had to ignore misleading visual tool information and attend to its functionality. 90 children between 24 and 55 months from seven preschools were recruited. The study’s design was quasi-experimental and factorial, and the children were confron

Det finns idag många olika lösningar för att mäta fluidflöden. För att uppnå hög precision i mätningarna blir sensorernas tillverkningskostnad ofta hög och deras principer är generellt baserade på avancerad teori. I det här examensarbetet undersöks en ny mätprincip, baserad på konceptet för en vanlig rotameter. Den nya mätprincipen använder en solenoid för att skapa ett magnetiskt fält som håller Fluid flow measurement is a task for which many different solutions exist. For high precision sensors the production cost is high and measurement principle is generally based on advanced theory. In this thesis a new principle of fluid flow measurement, based on the concept of a conventional rotameter, is investigated. The new principle uses a solenoid to create a magnetic field to maintain a float

The connected and automated car is performing more and more driving tasks autonomously. This produces a lot of data. The EU Database Directive gives non-original databases protection through the sui generis database right. Whether these databases with machine-generated data should be part of the scope of the right is unclear, depending on the interpretation of the right. The proposed EU Database A

År 1994 såg det internationella samfundet passivt på medan uppskattnings-vis 800 000 människor förlorade sina liv i ett folkmord i Rwanda. Fem år senare inledde NATO en militär intervention i Kosovo med argumentet att det rörde sig om en "humanitär intervention". I båda fallen var säkerhetsrå-det oförmöget eller ovilligt att agera, trots att det var tänkt att agera som beskyddare av värlIn 1994 the international community stood idly by while an estimated 800.000 people lost their lives in a genocide in Rwanda. Five years later, NATO launched its military intervention in Kosovo, with the argument that it was a ‘humanitarian intervention’. In both cases, the Security Council was unable or unwilling to act although it was supposed to act as the protector of world peace and security.

This thesis investigates the application of reinforcement learning (RL) to the problem of hedging Credit Valuation Adjustment (CVA), a key component of counterparty credit risk in over-the-counter (OTC) derivatives. While prior studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of RL in hedging simple financial instruments, this work extends the literature by exploring whether RL, specifically the Proxim

In pursuit of energy efficiency and sustainable development, goals have been set by the EU and Sweden to improve the energy performance of buildings and reduce their environmental impact. Renovating the existing building stock is a path to achieving the energy and climate goals. This study investigates and analyses various retrofitting options for multifamily residential buildings in Skåne, Sweden

Användning av den maltosnegativa jäststammen Saccharomycodes ludwigii för tillverkning av alkoholfri öl, metodutveckling. I detta projekt har en metod utvecklats som ger mikrobryggerier möjligheten att tillverka alkoholfri öl. I takt med att fler blir medvetna om alkoholens negativa effekter, ökar intresset för alkoholfri öl, även hos väldigt små bryggeriet, så kallade mikrobryggerier. Då det kräNon-alcoholic beer is gaining more attention in the brewing industry due to the negative health and economic consequences of alcohol consumption, even smaller microbreweries are showing interest in the production of non-alcoholic beer. Producing non-alcoholic beer has been restricted to the large breweries due to the special equipment needed and the high investment costs, but by using biological m

Enligt högskoleförordningen kan universitet och högskolor I Sverige vidta disciplinära åtgärder mot studenter som fuskar. Reglerna kräver dock att en student ska ha begått handlingen med uppsåt för att ansvar ska kunna utkrävas. Endast oaktsamhet kan således inte utgöra en grund för att vidta disciplinära åtgärder mot en student. Trots att ett stort antal studenter varje är blir föremål för discipThe Swedish governmental ordinance for higher public education, Högskoleförordningen, allows universities in Sweden to take disciplinary measures towards students that are found cheating. However, the rules require that the cheating actions of the student has been committed either intentionally or knowingly in order for them to be held responsible. Simple negligence is thus not an allowed reason t

In this master thesis an equipment for measuring the quality on various grains within the agricultural industry is being investigated. The equipment is manufactured by FOSS Tecator a company situated in the beautiful city of Höganäs in Sweden. The food-analyzing is conducted with so called NIR-spectrometry, a method in which the grain is exposed to light with various wavelengths. The different wav

The topic of this thesis is to identify a surface with robot force control. To achieve this a robot performing contact force control on a surface while it also follows a trajectory is needed. All experiments were performed in the robot laboratory at the Department of Automatic Control at Lund Institute of Technology. The robot used was an ABB Irb-2000 robot, equipped with a wrist mounted force and

High costs, time delays, inefficiency and complicated border procedures when engaging in cross-border trade hinders competitiveness and economic development in many developing countries, such as Uganda. To try to reduce these obstacles and challenges, Uganda has implemented One-stop border posts, intending to make international trade cheaper, quicker, and simpler. This paper investigates the effic

Den nära personliga och ekonomiska gemenskap som ofta finns mellan makar respektive sambor har i alla tider gett upphov till en mängd särskilda regler som reglerar parternas mellanhavanden. Genom den så kallade giftorätten har makar en rätt till likadelning av giftorättsgodsets värde vid bodelning. Syftet med likadelningen är att skydda den ekonomiskt svagare maken och att åstadkomma en ekonomisk The close personal and economic bond that generally exists between spouses or cohabitants has throughout times resulted in a number of special rules governing the parties dealings. By the right to marital property, the assets are divided equally between the spouses when a division of property is made. The purpose of the right to marital property is to protect the economically weaker spouse and to

In the 2017 paper by Arévalo and Söderlind, a framework was established for creating linear multistep methods of various classes based on a polynomial formulation which includes variable step size adaptivity. These classes are: k step explicit and implicit methods of order k and k+1 respectively for nonstiff problems (such as Adams methods), and k step implicit methods of order k for stiff problem

Huvudsyftet med detta examensarbete är att utreda huruvida de svenska turordningsreglerna kan anses stå i strid med den svenska Diskrimineringslagen eller med EU-rätten. Vi har under uppsatsens gång identifierat grupper på arbetsmarknaden som vi anser befinna sig i riskgruppen för att bli utsatta för diskriminering vid tillämpningen av de svenska turordningsreglerna. Dessa grupper är bland annat yThe main aim of this thesis is to investigate whether the Swedish priority rules may be in breach of the Swedish Discrimination Act or EU law. During the thesis we have identified groups in the labour market that we believe are at risk for discriminatory treatment. These groups include younger workers, immigrants and women. It is expressed in the preparatory work for the 1974 Employment Act that t

This study focuses on the Dokki district in Greater Cairo that was used as a case for developing the idea of a tool to assess the possibility of the roofs of existing bu

Sveriges självbild som länge varit lyckligt befriad från svågerpolitik, maktmissbruk och pengar under bordet har under det senaste decenniet fått sig en törn. Stora svarta rubriker på löpsedlar har uppmärksammat oss på att korruption och mutor även förekommer i vårt trygga demokratiska samhälle. För att på ett effektivt sätt komma åt detta krävs ett fungerande regelverk, något som haltar då det koThe Swedish Bribery Legislation in use today was written in 1977 and is consequently neither completely modern nor crystal clear. There are no legal definitions on what constitutes a bribe or what is giving rise to corruption and the verdicts are instead made on a case by case basis. The Swedish Bribery Legislation has over the years received a lot of criticism as it is seen as unpredictable and d

Hösten 2008 introducerades Stadiums medarbetare i verksamhetens nya "formel för framgång", E3. Konceptet bestod då av värdeorden Energi, Enkelt och Etta, med vilka medarbetarna uppmanades att skapa Energi genom att göra arbetet Enkelt och på så sätt bli Etta. I denna uppsats vill jag titta närmare på hur styrning genom reglerad frihet kan gå till, och jag har för detta syfte valt att titIn the fall of 2008 Stadiums employees were introduced to the corporations new "formula for success", E3. The concept consisted at this time of the values Energy, Simplicity and Number One, to which employees were encouraged to create Energy by making the work Simpler and thus become Number One. In this paper I look at how control by regulating freedom can be performed, and I have for th
