Syftet med uppsatsen är att diskutera utformning och effekter av intern hantering och extern rapportering av risk i tre börsnoterade företag. Empirin består av presentationer av tre svenska börsnoterade företags arbete med och syn på hantering och rapportering av risk. Presentationerna baseras på intervjuer med riskansvariga på företagen samt företagens årsredovisningar. De studerade företagens exThe purpose of our study is to discuss the design and effects of internal risk management and external reporting of risk in three listed companies. The empirical material consists of presentations of how three Swedish listed companies view and work with risk management and risk reporting. The presentations are based on interviews with risk managers and corporate annual reports. The result shows th

Issue: Does a statistical relationship between OMXS30 and S&P500 plus OMXS30 and DAX30 exist after extreme returns? Is it possible to explain the relationship between OMXS30 and S&P500 plus S&P500 and DAX30 with the chosen economic theories? Purpose: The purpose is to examine the effects on OMXS30 during 6 days after extreme returns on S&P500 or DAX30 are present. These effects wi

Popular summery I detta kandidatarbete användes som titeln säger kalorimetri, en metod som går ut på att man mäter hur mycket värme som antingen avges eller tas upp av den lösning man mäter på. Den lösning som mätts består av en peptid, som är ett varierande antal aminosyror sammansatta som ett protein, som lösts upp i vatten och sedan tillsätts en ren vattenlösning stegvis medan instrumentet läseIsothermal calorimetry measurements were conducted on the homologous peptide series AnK where A is alanine, K is lysine and n=6, 8, 10, in order to determine the enthalpy for the aggregation of the peptides. The obtained curves were then integrated to determine the differential enthalpy of the processes involved. Previous studies into the same peptides showed that the peptides had very different c

For a long time, Quentin Skinner has been one of the world’s most prominent figures in the discipline of intellectual history. As one of the leading proponents of what has come to be known as “the Cambridge school” he has always been a strong advocate for the implementation of a singular historical method, based on a mix of, what I would call, a “Collingswoodian contextualism” and an “Austian spee

There is a constant need for the fire and rescue service to develop new methods, materials and extinguishing media to implement the most effective firefighting operations as possible while minimizing environmental impacts. The effect of additives in the extinguishing water is fairly unknown. In this report small-scale experiments shows that additives and fire retardants can provide a significant i

De senaste åren har antalet sjukskrivningar relaterade till psykisk sjukdom ökat, och en stor del av denna ökning tillskrivs stressproblematik i arbetslivet. Syftet med denna studie var att kartlägga behovet av stresshantering på två mindre företag, samt att undersöka sambandet mellan självrapporterad stress och anställdas upplevelse av krav, kontroll, stöd och meningsfullhet. Tanken är att en såd

The Tam Giang-Cau Hai lagoon is located outside of Hue in central Vietnam. Southeast of Thuan An inlet, one of the two inlets of the lagoon, a groin was constructed in 2008 as a measure to reduce the sediment transport to prevent the inlet from closing. This groin has caused erosion of the eastern sand spit of the inlet and accretion of sediment on the coastline south east of the groin. The object

This Master Thesis was done in collaboration with Nederman AB in Helsingborg and the aim was to analyse and develop a suggestion for a new modernized Powerbox which is one of Nedermans products in the auto workshop segment. The Powerbox is a product for sourcing of compressed air, vacuum suction and electric power. Nederman is a strong brand and considered a market leader in many of its areas. The

An experimental study was performed, aimed at finding a way to produce single crystalline powder of pure (Fe0.7Co0.3)2B with a particle size of 100-200nm. This was done with the ultimate goal of producing a hard magnetic ferrite powder for powder metallurgical production of permanent magnets. For this study, eight different compositions of iron, cobalt and boron were atomized using atomization by

The thesis treats a partial implementation of the SCORM standard for an existing LMS (Learning Management System), and includes an overview of the standard and a presentation and analysis of the implementation. SCORM is short for Shareable Content Object Reference Model and is a standard for web based e-learning. The standard specifies, among other things, API, aggregation and data model. The impl

För patienter med cancer är cancerrelaterad smärta ett vanligt problem som orsakar ett stort lidande. Syftet var att beskriva användandet av musik i förhållande till omvårdnad av vuxna patienter med cancerrelaterad smärta. Resultatet visade genom teman att musiken kunde lindra såväl fysisk som psykisk/emotionell cancerrelaterad smärta samt att användningen och graden av smärtlindring påverkas av s

Traffic engineers around the country often use pre-programmed path plans. However, there is often an uncertainty in how much margin there is in the path plan and if they are trustworthy. The goal of this report is to determine the margin in pre-programmed path plans, using the program AutoTurn, for trucks with a length of 10 meters. This report discusses drive and rest times how both the drive and

Trash-talk är vanligt inom sportens värld, och efter att Muhammad Ali gjorde entré har det blivit en integrerad del av boxningen. I uppsatsen analyseras trash-talk genomförda av två världsmästare i boxning, Muhammad Ali och Mike Tyson, och en jämförelse görs med klassiska smädelsetal. Det visade sig finnas likheter i form av ett överflöd av stilfigurer och glorifiering av sig själva mellan de två

It has been argued that harmonization leads to a more effective delivery of aid to recipient countries, and ultimately to the target population and thus cooperation in general would be an adequate means to achieve this goal. However, the implementation of the Paris Agenda has so far progressed slowly. Vietnam is often reported as a case where cooperation between donors is working fine. By making u

Methane emissions from Northern wetlands constitute a substantial part of the total natural emission of methane, a strong greenhouse gas. Both environmental and biotic factors influence the production, oxidation and transport of methane and hence its net flux. The methane emission from Northern wetlands is highly variable both spatially and temporally. As many factors influence the methane flux, k

Developing efficient and robust computational models is essential to improve our understanding of protein solution behavior. This becomes particularly important to tackle the high-concentration regime. In this context, the main challenge is to put forward coarse-grained descriptions able to reduce the level of detail, while retaining key features and relevant information. In this work, we develop

A new growth approach, based on the hot-wall metalorganic chemical vapor deposition concept, is developed for high-quality homoepitaxial growth of Si-doped single-crystalline β -Ga 2 O 3 layers on (010)-oriented native substrates. Substrate annealing in argon atmosphere for 1 min at temperatures below 600 ° C is proposed for the formation of epi-ready surfaces as a cost-effective alternative to th

Flexibility can support the energy transition and improve the efficiency of heat supply to buildings. This study tests price models for the inclusion of heat pumps (HPs) in district heating network (DHN). Various price models were tested in two cases in Sweden. In Sweden, DH companies are increasingly confronted with instances where building owners invest in a HP and only use DH when it is too col
