Syftet är att öka kunskapen om de faktorer som i en onboarding process främjar nyanställdas lära

LFM30 - en lokal färdplan för att accelerera arbetet med att uppnå klimatneutralitet i byggbranschen Byggbranschen står för cirka en femtedel av Sveriges växthusgasutsläpp. Det är därmed en sektor inom vilket mycket kan, och måste förändras om Sverige ska kunna nå upp till de mål man åtagit sig genom den nationella implementeringen av Agenda 2030 och mål uppsatta i Parisavtalet.

The lignin-inspired derivatives coniferyl aldehyde and sinapyl aldehyde were used to prepare nitrile-containing methacrylate monomers with the aim to synthesize bio-based polymers exhibiting high glass transition temperatures (Tgs). The aldehydes were initially transformed to the corresponding nitriles and then underwent methacrylation before being polymerised by free-radical polymerisation. The h

The dimensions of cultural economics have been more and more discussed recently. This study aims to analyze the relationship between social tolerance and economic growth. Previous studies have discussed two main ideas. Firstly, social tolerance creates a creative environment that promotes innovation and entrepreneurship. Secondly, social tolerance lowers barriers to entry in human capital accumula

This paper evaluates the impact of reproductive health care restrictions on women’s labor market outcomes in the United States. We exploit the variation in restrictions on reproductive health care services across U.S. states and over time by using individual level data on fertility and labor market outcomes and state level data on reproductive health care restrictions. We apply a difference-in-dif

Artificial neural networks are prone to overfitting – the process of learning details specific to a particular training data set. Success in preventing overfitting through combining the L2 and dropout regularisation techniques has led to the combination’s recent popularity. However, with the introduction of each additional regularisation technique to an artificial neural network, there comes new h

In the early 21st century, deflationary trends applied pressure on margins in a range of different industries and subsequently cost reductions were required. Improving efficiency in the supply chain was identified as one of the key sources of potential cost savings. Subsequently, a trend towards slimmer supply chains with less stockkeeping emerged.
