Organizations’ communication is then lost inside the background noise, failing to be remembered by their target audience and especially to contrib

Mål och syfte: Syftet med detta examensarbete är att undersöka byggherrens behov och nytta av att styra bygglogistiken i ett tidigt skede samt förstå hur hanteringen av bygglogistiken kan påverka valet av upphandlingsstrategi. Problemformulering: Idag finns det en gråzon i byggbranschen mellan logistiklösningarna och de behov som byggherren ska uppfylla. Byggherren har stora möjligheter att påverPurpose: The purpose of this master thesis is to investigate the developer’s needs and benefits of managing building logistics at an early stage and understand how the management of construction logistics can influence the choice of procurement strategy. Problem: Today, there is a gray area in the construction industry between the logistics solutions and the needs that the developer must fulfill.

Idag är hållbart tänkande något som är närvarande i flera sammanhang både privat och offentligt. Distributionsföretag arbetar frekvent med att göra så lite avtryck som möjligt på miljön, samtidigt som de vill vara ekonomiskt hållbara. Syftet med studien har varit att skapa djupare förståelse för distributionsbranschens argument för och emot användandet av nya distributionsfordon samt belysa motsät

Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka vilka diskurser och subjektpositioner som finns tillgängliga för unga vuxna i Sverige när de förhåller sig till vad som är ett gott liv, samt hur nöjdhet konstrueras inom dessa diskurser. Detta undersöktes med hjälp av en Foucauldiansk diskursanalys av ett intervjumaterial som samlats in inom ramen för forskningsprojektet SOL-2. Tre olika diskurser om vad This study aimed to examine which discourses of what constitutes the good life are available to young adults in Sweden, what subject positions these discourses offer, as well as which constructions of satisfaction are contained within these discourses. This was done by using a Foucauldian discourse analysis on interviews carried out within the research project SOL-2. Three discourses were identifi

Uppsatsen behandlar symbolisk makt i striden mellan och inom professionella yrkesgrupper och Socialstyrelsen kring de prioriteringar och rekommendationer av behandlingsmetoder som gjordes genom revideringen av Socialstyrelsens nationella riktlinjer för vård vid depression och ångestsyndrom 2016 till 2017. Uppsatsens syfte är att utifrån ett kultursociologiskt perspektiv fördjupa kunskapen om hur e

Skalning och modellering av en kromatografikolonn för rening av sockerlösningar. För att uppnå klimatmålen behöver fossila råvaror inom kemiindustrin bytas ut mot förnybara råvaror. Socker är en råvara med stor potential inom industrin, men är ofta förorenat med salter. Därför utforskas rening av sockerlösningar här. För att använda socker som förnybar råvara för kemiindustri behöver sockret oftaTo utilize sugars as a feedstock for renewable industries, the feedstock often needs to be very pure. This is due to ionic species contaminating the sugar feedstock being potent catalyst poisons in many cases. To remove ionic species from the sugar feedstock, it is dissolved and purified using packed ion-exchange columns. In this report, a lab-scale setup of a large scale ion-exchange setup was co

Studenter mår sämre än yrkesverksamma. En individs välmående påverkas av hur tydlig beskrivningen (rollen) för den dagliga sysselsättningen är. Syftet med studien var att bredda kunskapen om svenska studenters välmående genom att applicera ett samskapandeperspektiv på högre utbildning. Målet med studien var därför att diskutera och svara på om studenters välmående är beroende av deras uppfattning

This thesis aims to reveal whether the Commission’s approach in the State aid assessment of advance pricing agreements (APAs) is in line with the current EU law framework and whether, given its implications, it is a sensible development in State aid law applied to taxation. Chapter 2 introduces the background of the arm's length principle, looking into its origin, purpose and application in ta

I examenarbetet undersöks det om man kan upptäcka fel på infrastrukturen med hjälp av eventkoder genererade från fordonsdatorn. För att kunna dra en slutsats om man kan förutspå ett infrastrukturfel med hjälp av fordonsdata har historiska data med kända fel från infrastrukturen undersökts tillsammans med eventkoder som genererats av fordonen. Vi har sedan försökt att hitta ett samband med hjälp avIn this thesis, we have investigated if infrastructural failures can be predicted using event codes generated by the train computer. For this purpose, historical data with known infrastructural failures have been examined together with event codes generated by the vehicle. We have then tried to find a pattern using relative risk. A confidence interval was calculated for the relative risk to see if

The shelf life of milk is amongst others dependent on the size of the oil droplets. These droplets can be measured using the laser diffraction (LD) technique. LD is a popular technique to measure particle size distributions (PSD) that has an outstanding broad measuring range capability, is easy-to-use and has a high reproducibility. While this technique is extremely popular, there are some conditi

Hazardous drinking habits is a phenomenon that often seems to be a part of the time spent at university. Henceforth, this study aims to map out the consumption levels of alcohol and narcotics among social work students at Lund University. This was made possible by a quantitative method and use of an online-survey. The questionnaire was answered by 215 social work students. Results show that a majo

Barnahus is a Nordic model for collaboration between different authorities regarding the issue of child victims of crime. As this means that different work logics interact, some argue that Barnahus can be seen as affected by juridification, which is a term that describes how law enforcement is prioritized over care-oriented services. The purpose of this study was to explore how coordinators of dif

The discussion of what the notion of ‘persecution’ entails seems to be evergreen during a time when people are more and more on the move fleeing deprivation of socioeconomic rights. A ‘human rights approach’ to the refugee definition, namely an interpretation by reference to human rights standards, is now endorsed in relevant scholarship. This thesis explores how the disability-specific standards

Förtroendet för att företag agerar i enlighet med deras värderingar har minskat under de senaste åren, vilket resulterar i att konsumenter ställer högre krav på att företag tar socialt ansvar. Trots autenticitetens centrala roll så finns det begränsad forskning kring fenomenet. Därmed är syftet med studien att problematisera begreppet autenticitet inom kontexten Corporate Social Responsibility (CSThe belief that businesses act in accordance with their pronounced values has diminished in recent years, which results in consumers putting pressure on corporations to take more social responsibility. Despite the central role of authenticity, there is limited research on the phenomenon. Thus, this study aims to problematize the concept of authenticity within Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR).
