The project’s purpose is based on how physics is applied in reality for flight safety, efficiency and sustainability purposes. The forecasting and verification of clear air turbulence(C.A.T.) is studied further to understand the demand of high-resolution forecasts by civilaviation. This was done by literature studies and interviews with pilots and meteorologists in Sweden. An alternative way of pr

Strategic thinking is a complex field that consists of more than the concept of strategy. Strategic thinking is important to business success, to maintain a competitive advantage, to strategic planning, and management decision-making. However, this is not an exhaustive list of reasons why strategic thinking is relevant. Research in the science and professional fields have failed to agree on one fi

This study is a literature review of three market-based instruments used for land management; environmental offsets, payments for ecosystem services (PES) and certification, and how they could be used to mitigate environmental impacts from sugarcane cultivation in Brazil when purchasing biopolymers. The study showed that certification is the most common market-based instrument in Brazil. Offset an

Allt fler personer har tillgång till en dator och en telefon idag. Dessa föremål har blivit en central roll i dagens samhälle och utbudet ökar. Över åren så har elektroniken blivit billigare och mer kraftfull vilket har lett till alla personer nu har tillgång till dessa föremål. En nyckel del till det är evolutionen av transistorn. Transistorn har funnits i många år men när den uppfanns så var denModern electronics are becoming more powerful and energy efficient for every new process generation. A key component in electronics is the transistor, which has made this trend possible. For many years the transistor has simply been scaled down.However, that is not possible any longer. To continue improving the transistor, new structures and materials need to be researched. A promising topic in th

Abstract Introduction: This paper aims to explore the alignment of managerial competencies in higher education and the labor market by conducting a Case Study on the MSc in Management (MiM) at Lund University School of Economics and Management (LUSEM). Method: Managerial competencies were identified through content analysis in entry-level management job advertisements in the Swedish Öresund regi

This paper studies the effect of corruption on four selected health outcomes, by using cross- country panel data, containing the 36 member states of OECD. The time period stretches from 1995 to 2017, extending upon previous studies by including data from more recent years. In order to estimate the effects of corruption, the paper uses Ordinary Least Squares, fixed effects and two-way fixed effects

This thesis aims to investigate the different mechanisms that Chinese companies in green industries used to acquire technological capabilities and how they changed over time. The thesis also aims to examine how the geographical pattern in outbound Chinese greenfield foreign direct investment has changed over time. By examining the inbound and outbound greenfield foreign direct investment pattern i

Den söta sanningen – en jämförelse av miljöpåverkan från socker respektive honung Studien handlar om miljöpåverkan från sockerproduktion och honungsproduktion, ett ämne som påverkar allt från biodiversitet till partikelutsläpp. Några miljöaspekter har valts ut för att undersökas på djupet och ge svar på frågan om vilket sötningsmedel som är mest miljövänligt egentligen. Miljöpåverkan från ekologHoney is generally considered to be a healthier option than white sugar, and humans can replace sugar with honey and still maintain a healthy diet. While effects on the body caused by sugar and honey have been investigated, the environmental impact of organic sugar and organic honey has not yet been investigated and compared. The purpose of this study was to perform an overview of the environmenta

Exercising leadership on the edge - this is a condition that concerns managers at ComWire in Dalborg. Due to a persistent organizational crisis which is characterized by uncertainty, doubt, and frustration, ComWire Dalborg seems to have lost some of its identity appeal. This context constitutes the foundation for our qualitative study intending to comprehend leadership in an environment where a fo

As the world population and the world economy continues increasing, theoverallconsumption in some parts of the world reach even more unsustainable proportions, which in turn leads to negative climate effects. To deal with this problem along with others, the concept circular economy has gained great importance.The aim of the circular economy is to minimize and prevent the upcoming of waste and to m

The development of new wireless cellular network technologies is always in progress. As 3G has been considered the foundation of mobile broadband, the latest generation of cellular mobile communications, that is, 5G New Radio, is expected to realize the networked society, where everyone and everything are seamlessly connected everywhere and every time. To ensure the connectivity and provide the re

Operahus runt om i Sverige är i brist på kompetenta repetitörer. Utförandet av ett klaverutdrag kräver utökad kunskap än bara tekniska färdigheter. Därför undersöker jag i denna uppsats inlärningsprocessen till en djupare förståelse till pianoreduktionen av en opera. Min metod har varit att studera bakgrund och kontext till operans framkomst, analysera librettot, textens roll i musiken och det Operas in Sweden are in short supply of competent répétiteurs. The execution of a vocal score requires additional knowledge than just technical skills. For that reason, I decided to investigate in the process of acquiring a deeper understanding to the piano reduction of an opera. The method I have been using are: studying background and context in the creation of an opera, analyse the libretto, t

Cell culturing is most commonly performed in conventional 96-well plates where cells are grown in a monolayer, on two-dimensional (2D) surfaces. However, a tumor grows in three dimensions (3D) in the human body and exhibits complex features that cannot be translated onto a 2D system. Likewise, an anti-cancer drug that has been pre-clinically tested in a 2D system is likely to fail clinical trials.

För att utvärdera en relativt ny typ av filterbottensystem som finns installerat i ett flertal vattenverk i Sverige så gjordes en bedömning av samspelet mellan ett snabbfilters prestanda och dess filterbottensystem. Målet var att bedöma filterbottensystemets påverkan på kvaliteten av det filtrerade vattnet och på energikonsumtionen under backspolningsprocessen och att använda denna information förThe interplay between the performance of a rapid gravity filter and its underdrain system was to be assessed in order to evaluate the performance of an unconventional underdrain system that is installed in a number of water treatment plants in Sweden. The aim was to assess the influence of the underdrain system on the filtered water quality and the energy efficiency of the backwash process of the

To understand how American cities “walk the talk” regarding climate change adaptation, the question “What effect do American city-wide adaptation efforts have on urban development trends?” is posed. The method covers the breadth and depth of the subject by studying the overall national climate discourse and utilizing three major American cities as case studies. Findings confirm adaptation efforts

The Brazilian LGBT movement has established in the last decades a strategy of action based on the achievement of social transformations through law. The struggle for human rights has become the focal point of the LGBT agenda in the country. For this reason, the linkages between the Brazilian LGBT movement and the law have multiplied. Having the objective of reflecting on the articulations arising

Kollektivtrafik är ett bra sätt för människor att resa mer socialt och miljövänligt. Det är därför viktigt att ha ett välfungerande system för kollektivtrafik. En stor del av det är att de pendlare som reser med tåg har en bra upplevelse. Om tågen är överdrivna med människor förlorar den sin konkurrenskraft med andra transportmedel som bilar. I denna rapport har undersökt hur andelen pendlare har Public transport is a great way for people to travel more socially and environmentally friendly. It is therefore important to have a well-functioning system for public transport. A large part of that is making sure the commuters whom travel by train has a good experience. If the trains are overstuffed with people, it loses its competitiveness with other means of transport such as cars. This report
