Bivariate correlations, simple linear regressions and a multiple linear regression analysis were made to try to understand the relationship between the dependent variable of sleep disturbances measured with the “
Big data is becoming ever increasingly important in every kind of scientific field, and data visualization is a big part of gaining an understanding of the data. Exploring data builds on intuition but exploring some data on a 2D screen can remove some of the intuition that is gained by exploring in 3 dimensions. Navigation of data visualization programs are often complex and slow to move through.

This paper revolves around the thesis
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

Kvaliteten på kalkcementpelare, kc-pelare, varierar ofta. Det är vid design- och tillverkningsprocess svårt att säkerställa den slutliga kvaliteten och egenskaperna kan vara olika inom och mellan pelare. Den stabiliserade jordens geologiska förhållanden inverkar, liksom bindemedel och tillverkningsförfarande. I Sverige är kc-pelare en vanlig förstärkningsmetod i stora infrastrukturprojekt och det
Sedan år 1895 då Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen uppfann joniserande strålning så har den använts på många olika sätt inom sjukvården, bland annat inom bilddiagnostik. Det är viktigt att en röntgensjuksköterska har en patientcentrerad vård där information och kommunikation med patienten utgör grunden för ett bra patientbemötande. Under det korta mötet kan patienten ställa frågor angående undersökningen och
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
The Swedish Sea Cadet Corps (Sjövärnskåren / SVK) is a unique voluntary organisation with potential to greatly contribute to the Swedish society in times of crisis.

Tupí-guaraníspråken omagua [omg] och kokama [cod] utgör intressanta exempel på omfattande språkkontakt i Amazonas. Detta framgår av språkens lexikon, som till största delen består av ord från tupí-guaraníspråk, men med en hög andel ord från obesläktade språk. Det framgår också av grammatiken, som skiljer sig mycket från andra tupí-guaraníspråk. Det språk som var huvudsaklig lexifierare i kontaktsiThe Tupí–Guaraní languages Omagua [omg] and Kokama [cod] constitute interesting examples of heavy language contact in Amazonia. This is evident from their lexicon, which is mostly Tupí–Guaraní, but with a high percentage of non-Tupí–Guaraní forms, and the grammar, which is very distinct from other Tupí–Guaraní languages. The lexifying Tupí–Guaraní language in this contact situation is believed to
