Background: As global aging accelerates, routinely assessing the functional status and morbidity burden of older patients becomes paramount. The aim of this study is to assess the validity of the comprehensive clinical and functional Health Assessment Tool (HAT) based on four cohorts of older adults (60 + years) from the Swedish National study on Aging and Care (SNAC) spanning urban, suburban, and
To understand, predict and mitigate climate change, it is crucial to have long-term and standardised measurements of greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere and their fluxes between atmosphere, land and oceans. The Integrated Carbon Observation System, is a distributed European Research Infrastructure which provides high-precision and highly standardised observations from more than 170 sta
I denna uppsats har work-life balance och organisationskultur inom konsultbranschen hos nyexaminerade undersökts. Aspekterna har tidigare undersökts kopplat till konsultsektorn, men det har inte hittats forskning där både aspekter undersöks i relation till varandra för nyexaminerade. Huvudfrågeställningen för undersökningen lyder: Vilken betydelse har organisationskulturen för nyexaminerades uppleIn this essay, work-life balance and organizational culture within the consulting industry among recent graduates has been examined. Both aspects have been previously studied in the consulting sector, but previous research has not been found where both aspects are investigated in relation to each other and recent graduates. The main research question is: What significance does organizational cultu
Uppsatsen undersöker och granskar hur gällande rätt, inom sakrätten reglerar och präglar användandet av säkerhetsöverlåtelser som kreditsäkerhet. Därutöver undersöks även det avtalsförhållande som långivaren och låntagaren befinner sig i när äganderätten, gällande säkerhetsobjektet, övergått till långivaren. Även nyttjande- och separationsrätten diskuteras och undersöks i förhållande till hur rättThe paper examines and reviews how the current right of rem regulates and characterizes the use of security transfers as credit security. In addition, the contractual relationship that the lender and the borrower find themselves in when the ownership of the collateral has been transferred to the lender is also examined. The right of use and separation is also discussed and examined in relation to
High-order harmonic generation (HHG) is a highly nonlinear optical process in which extreme ultraviolet (XUV) radiation is generated due to the interaction of an intense laser field with atoms. This process enables the production of high harmonics, which would not be achieved with standard nonlinear media. The utilization of two-color laser fields (formed by combining a fundamental field with one
The aim of this study was to explore sea-level rise (SLR) exposure in South-East England by conducting a broad analysis of some of the possible impacts of inundation in the region under different SLR scenarios in a warming climate. The potential effects of coastal inundation were mapped and quantified by applying a modified bathtub modelling approach in GIS to a low-elevation coastal Digital Terr
Digitalisation has had a profound effect on our society. Much of our daily lives revolve around digital errands that, providing we have the appropriate skills, provide us with innumerous conveniences. Unfortunately for those who do not have such competencies, these normal everyday tasks have become unmanageable and as a result of the McDonaldization of society there are very few places to which th
Perovskite research has quickly gone from non-existent to one of the biggest reseach areas in Photo- voltaics. There are still many questions to be solved regarding the stability, environmental impact, reproducible large area devices, efficiency and module fabrication cost of Perovskite Solar Cells, PSCs, before commercial up-scaling. Scientists all over the world are working towards solutions and
Today’s flow of technological advancements is putting pressure on organisations to maintain a digital transformation to stay competitive in their industries. According to previous research, digitally mature organisations have significantly higher profitability and revenue growth compared to lower-maturity organizations. This study aims to describe the main challenges and solutions met by managers
Denna studie undersöker hur återkoppling används på gymnasiet i individuell instrument- och sångundervisning. Genom stimulated recall observerade vi två lektioner och genomförde sedan intervjuer med alla fyra informanter för att få både lärarnas och elevernas perspektiv. Sedan analyserade vi datan utefter en hermeneutisk ansats. Resultatet visade att olika typer av återkoppling förekom i undervisn
I och med elektrifieringen av energisektorn ställs höga krav på ökad inhemsk produktion av elektricitet i Sverige. På grund av den nuvarande fördelningen, där en stor del av produktionen sker i norra Sverige medan konsumtionen är koncentrerad till södra delarna av landet, är behovet extra stort i elområde 4 (SE4). Ett län som möter extra stora utmaningar är Skåne där självförsörjningsgraden för elThe current electrification of the energy sector puts high demands on increasing domestic electricity production in Sweden. This issue is enhanced by the current regional imbalance between supply and demand, while a major share of electricity generation is located in northern Sweden, consumption is concentrated in the south. Consequently, the need for new production is particularly great in electr
Many Swedish multifamily buildings from the 1960s are now reaching a stage where major renovation is needed to improve energy performance, indoor environmental quality, and long-term climate performance. At the same time, renovation strategies may involve trade-offs between operational energy savings, embodied carbon, thermal comfort, and material circularity. This thesis evaluates energy-efficien
This report investigate evacuation safety in business premises. A number of rooms have been designed by old Swedish building regulations, Nybyggnadsreglerna, NR, 1988 as handbook. When NR doesn’t corresponds with the building regulations of today, Boverkets byggregler, BBR 94, the rules in BBR will be followed. The rooms have been chosen in a way so it will be possible to study the effects on the
The E5 protein of Human Papillomavirus type 16 has been described as an oncoprotein, interacting with several cellular pathways to evade immune- and stress responses, enhancing E6- and E7- driven cell proliferation. However, it is not known when during the infection E5 is expressed. Although present on the majority of alternatively spliced mRNAs produced during the viral life cycle, E5 is never th
Objectives The purpose of the thesis is to investigate how a new logistic set-up can lower the transportation cost of OEM articles. Four objectives are identified to that end: identify the OEM articles, map their flow, create simulation tool and examine what logistics set-up is suitable. Background The increasing rate of globalization has put immense pressure on the world’s infrastructure. As a re
The tall perennial herb Gladiolus imbricatus is an endangered species within plant communities of semi-natural grasslands. Coastal meadows, extensively managed as pastures or meadows, are amongst its favored habitats and thrive with biodiversity in fauna and flora. However, following major land-use changes during the last century, proactive endeavors are necessary to prevent a loss of rare fauna a

With the advancement of artificial intelligence, customers and users in general have been more used to having a virtual assistance method for service-related tasks. However, in the shopping centre industry, the self-help solutions mostly follow the traditional pattern of having a conciérge or a totem where you can look for the location of a particular store. This thesis aims to look at this with a
The combined rise on the demand for electrical vehicles for road transportation, technological advancements for Lithium-Ion batteries, and limited availability of rare metals, create a need for sustainable solutions for Electric Vehicle Batteries (EVBs) at the end of their first life. This makes companies rethink on how to deal with the increased complexity generated by the exponential growth of E
The purpose of this study has been to examine how family counselors with a social work degree perceive their role within the inpatient care of child - and adolescent psychiatry. The empirical data consisted of interviews with six family counselors, all of whom are social workers and work in inpatient care. The study is based on a qualitative method with a phenomenological approach, where the inter
