Solel som tjänst- hur nya affärsmodeller gör solelsbranschen mer cirkulär Den pågående expansionen av solenergi ger upphov till frågor om hur vi ska hantera de framtida problemen med elektroniskt avfall. Innovativa affärsmodeller visar hur solelsbranschen potentiellt kan hantera problemet genom att anamma principer från cirkulär ekonomi. Den här studien presenterar hur 10 svenska solelsföretag seWhile the development of solar power is an important step in replacing fossil fuels with renewable energy, the fast increase in PV system deployment is projected to create large amounts of electronic waste in the next decades. Circular economy has been suggested as a key concept for changing society towards more resource efficient systems where products and materials retain their value along their

I denna studie har vi undersökt hur individer i långvariga, heterosexuella relationer upplever fördelningen av känslomässigt arbete i sina relationer och eventuella könsskillnader i denna fördelning. Vi har även undersökt om det finns ett samband mellan den upplevda fördelningen och självskattat välmående, samt huruvida individer känner till begreppet känslomässigt arbete. För att besvara frågestäIn this study we have explored how individuals in long-term, heterosexual relationships experience the distribution of emotional labour in their relationship, as well as eventual gender differences of this distribution. We also examined a possible correlation between this experienced distribution and self-evaluated well-being, as well as how familiar individuals are with the concept of emotional l

This thesis is based on a case study conducted during eight weeks in a youth project in Colombia. The project aims to support vulnerable youth from communities outside Cartagena into entering higher education and enhance their engagement in social work in their communities. The purpose of the thesis was to investigate how the relationships established in the project interplayed with the project’s

3,5 miljarder år gamla bakterier kan rädda våra vatten från metallutsläpp Långt innan det fanns syre i atmosfären så fanns bakterier som ”andades” svavel. I stället för att andas ut koldioxid andas dessa bakterier ut sulfid, en negativt laddad svaveljon som binder till metaller. På en avfallsanläggning utanför Hässleholm står en testanläggning där man forskar på att minska utsläppen av metaller tHässleholm Miljö who own the landfill site in Vankiva in southern Sweden are having difficulties in keeping their heavy metal emissions within the limits of their very strict permit. Today reduction is reached by chemical precipitation, but a more effective and environmentally friendly process is wanted. Biological heavy metal removal in leachate water, using sulfate reducing bacteria (SRB) and me

Arbetsmiljöverket har konstaterat att det förekommer stora skillnader i arbetet med den psykosociala arbetsmiljön beroende på om man arbetar inom privat eller offentlig sektor, det kan också konstateras att små företag i regel är sämre på att bedriva psykosocial arbetsmiljö. Detta ställer höga krav på arbetsgivaren som bär ansvaret för att riktlinjer som finns inom området också efterföljs. De som

DNA barcoding is a powerful and inexpensive tool for identifying genetic material. Identification of plasmids is especially important for tracking the global spread of anti-biotic resistance. In this study, new methods were presented for identifying plasmids using DNA barcodes that combine two very different DNA labelling types. Labelling using the affinity based technique of competitive binding w

Uppkopplade enheter, eller Internet of Things (IoT), blir alltmer vanliga i våra hem vilket resulterar i ett behov att fjärrstyra dem. Man kan åstadkomma detta via app- likationer som distribueras av tillverkarna av dessa IoT enheter, vilket kan resultera i att du behöver flertalet applikationer för att kontrollera dina IoT enheter. Problem kan också uppstå när man ska namnge sina IoT enheter, detAs connected devices, or Internet of Things (IoT), are becoming increasingly more common in our homes we need a way to control them remotely. Remote control can be achieved with native applications created by the providers of these IoT devices which can result in you needing several applications to control your IoT devices. Furthermore, issues can arise when naming your IoT devices, e.g. if they a

Covert surveillance officers lack special equipment to carry their essential tools during their surveillance jobs. Officers were interviewed about scenarios, needs and the current equipment as well as solutions. It was apparent that it could be problematic to carry essential tools in an organized and concealed way. A generic bag that anyone could carry without looking out of place was developed th

Automatlarm kan rädda många liv och har hjälpt räddningstjänsten att göra nödvändiga insatser på plats, även om fördelarna är många finns det larm som inte är befogade och som orsakar kostnader för samhället. Syfte med den här studien är att genom intervjuer diskutera kring automatlarm, dess för- och nackdelar och genom litteraturstudier analysera olika ingående parametrar. Material och metod: StAutomatic alarms have saved many lives and have helped the emergency services to make the necessary efforts in place, although there are many benefits, there are alarms that are not justified and that cause costs for the society. The aim of this study is to, through interviews, discuss about automatic alarms and its advantages and disadvantages and through literature studies analyze different inpu

The modus operandi of most asset managers is to promise clients an annual risk target, where risk is measured by realized standard deviation of portfolio returns. Moreover, Markowitz (1952) portfolio selection requires an estimate of the covariance matrix of the returns of the financial instruments under consideration. To address both these problems, we develop a data-driven method for covariance

Företagets avdelning för distributionsutrustning håller på att utveckla en lösning för att packa förpackningar i ett rektangulärt mönster i öppna tråg. Lösningen använder sig av en delta-robot med ett vakuumdrivet plockverktyg för att plocka och placera förpackningarna. För att öka robustheten i lösningen vill man ta fram och testa koncept för att automatiskt, och utan operatörsinteraktion, hanterA distribution equipment solution using a delta robot for picking and placing packages in a rectangular pattern into cardboard trays (blanks) is currently under development. In order to increase the robustness of this solution, concepts for handling a variety of performance problems in the grouping or pattern creation area without operator interaction, e.g. toppled packages or missing packages, ne

In 2010 the Swedish armed forces ended 100-years of conscription and introduced fully employed professional soldiers in their battalions with the purpose to be more usable and have higher readiness. Almost ten years later the turnover has been more than threefold to what was expected when the change was introduced. This study looks into the motivational factors of Swedish professional soldiers. Th

In recent years, the Arctic has attracted focus, news media and authorities have made it clear that tensions in security policies have increased. To gain a further understanding of how Sweden (as a state) relates to the Arctic region, this study examines official sources using narrative analysis through the lens of securitization theory. This study examines how Swedish official threat narratives a

From the first of October 2019 there was a new supplier of medical equipment in five regions in Sweden. From the second of October we had a medical equipment crisis on our hands. This thesis aims to uncover why one out of five regions was practically unharmed by the supply shortage and if this was due to active measurements taken by the region authorities or something else. The study uses Lundquis

Credit scoring, the process of evaluating loan applicants with the help of numerical methods, is widely used in the financial sector. When used correctly, it can aid the decision process and lower default rates on loans. New EU regulation has allowed third-party actors to access personal banking information, following the applicant's consent. The increase in available information that financia

En röntgenundersökning sker i en högteknologisk miljö, som kan vara påfrestande för barn med autism, därför är det av vikt att en röntgensjuksköterska kan tillämpa olika metoder för att minska barnets oro och stress. Syftet med litteraturstudien var att belysa omvårdnadsåtgärder för att minska oro och stress hos barn med autism i samband med röntgenundersökningar. Integrerad analys av nio artiklar

In the beginning of 2020 the world experienced the most severe pandemic since the last globalization wave. In Scandinavia the COVID-19 outbreak was countered with similar aims but with different measures. When Denmark imposed extensive restrictions Sweden took a completely different path. This study investigates the reason why seemingly equal countries opted such different crisis management strate

In the current development of coherent optical communication systems, nonlinear noise is considered to be the ultimate bottleneck when extending the transmission length. In this report we suggest a nonparamter digital signal processing scheme to extend the transmission length of a fiber link. The processing scheme was enabled by machine learning, implemented to compensate nonlinear noise in a comm
