Användandet av wikis inom organisationer är en relativt ny företeelse. Intåget har i stort sett gjorts utan någon bakomliggande kunskap om vad detta system kan tillföra. På senare år har fenomenet dock uppmärksammats inom forskningsvärlden där man nu börjar inse systemets potential som ett knowledge management system. Verktyget ger användarna möjlighet att generera, lagra och sprida kunskap inom o
In Sweden as well as in The Netherlands energy policy is increasingly aiming at extending the use of renewable sources. In accordance with the targets of the European Union, both countries have formulated national targets for the year 2020. For wind energy these targets are 30.0 TWh of electricity in Sweden and a total installed capacity of 10.0 GW in The Netherlands. Wind is an inflexible, variab
This report is a result of a Master Thesis made at Volvo 3P and the Department of Advance Engineering and Concepts. The thesis is a part of the education in Mechanical Engineering at the Department Design Sciences, for the Division of Machine Design at Lund University. Volvo 3P is involved in a project regarding a new patented manufacturing method that is under development. The manufacturing metho
Denna rapport är ett resultat av ett examensarbete som undersöker hur RFID-teknologi kan användas vid leveranser av prefabricerade betongelement för att på så sätt få en ökad kontroll och ett optimerat flöde av dessa leveranser till och på en byggarbetsplats.
RFID är en förkortning för Radio Frekvens Identifiering och är ett system som möjliggör informationsöverföring mellan en tagg, även
Uppsatsens syfte är att kartlägga om det föreligger ett samband mellan transparens, i form av handlingar och kommunikation som frivilligt används för att öka insikt i företag, och företags kapitalstruktur. Även andra faktorers betydelse studeras i form av ägarkoncentration samt börs- och branschtillhörighet. Sambanden undersöks genom att data har insamlats från sekundära källor i form av årsredovi
In response to the challenges that modern societies pose for citizen participation in representative democracies, theories of participatory democracy are experiencing a revival. Whereas the means suggested to reach the participatory end are numerous, focus is on the local level and its potential to serve as a breeding ground for the enhancement of political citizen participation. For the same reas
The purpose of our study was to examine the effect of cognitive preparation during audio-feedback in a single-session treatment for social anxiety in a non-clinical sample. Participants in the study were recruited among high school students with high self-rated social anxiety. The study was conducted with a between-groups and repeated measure design. In total 41 participants were randomized to an
The paper deals with the question to what extent tax incentives especially designed to promote research and development are compatible with European Union Law. Therefore tax incentives are analysed with special regard to the Fundamental Freedoms and the State aid provision. It can be found that legislators have three basic possibilities given by European Union Law, which differ in the freedom of d
This essay seeks to investigate the role of demands for quantifiable and measurable results in Human Rights capacity building projects in development countries. The nature of the work is slow processes, yet the financers need to see results for their investments, to make sure that it goes through the right channels. The Swedish minister of Aid has made statements that show a wish to focus Sweden’s
Framställningen syftar till att belysa den svenska vårdnadslagslagstiftningen avseende bestämmanderätten vid gemensam vårdnad samt konsekvenserna av vårdnadshavares oförmåga att samarbeta i frågor som rör barns rätt till vård. Enligt svensk familjerätt är det bästa för barnet att stå under föräldrarnas gemensamma vårdnad samt att föräldrarna tar gemensamma beslut i alla frågor som rör barnet. NämnThe aim of this thesis is to analyse the current legislation regarding the right of decision under joint legal custody and the absence of legal rules in this area. The thesis furthermore analyses the consequences of the legal requirement of consensus between the parents for all decisions regarding the child, as well as the consequence of the parents inability to cooperate when it comes to the chil
Purpose: To develop a deep learning-based algorithm that automatically and accurately classifies patients as either having pulmonary emboli or not in CT pulmonary angiography (CTPA) examinations. Materials and methods: For model development, 700 CTPA examinations from 652 patients performed at a single institution were used, of which 149 examinations contained 1497 PE traced by radiologists. The n
Since the last edition of this book (2014), progress has been astonishing in all areas of Natural Language Processing, with recent achievements in Text Generation that spurred a media interest going beyond the traditional academic circles. Text Processing has meanwhile become a mainstream industrial tool that is used, to various extents, by countless companies. As such, a revision of this book was
Sagarmatha (Everest) has long been recognised as one of the principal goals of global adventure tourism. Supported by high-altitude workers, paying climbers on Sagarmatha have the opportunity to tread in the footsteps of colonial pioneers such as George Mallory and Sir Edmund Hillary. Ever since the first attempt was made to summit Sagarmatha there has been an appreciation amongst the climbing com
As a component of myeloablative conditioning before allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), Total Body Irradiation (TBI) is employed in radiotherapy centers all over the world. In recent and coming years, many centers are changing their technical setup from a conventional TBI technique to multi-isocenter conformal arc therapy techniques such as Volumetric Modulated Arc Therapy (
A fuel cell is an electrochemical device that transforms chemical energy into electrical energy and heat. It occurs through a controlled chemical reaction. Among its essential components are the porous electrodes, which play a pivotal role in the operation of the fuel cells. These electrodes are crucial because they facilitate the efficient flow of reactants to the reaction sites, thereby driving
Objectives: To perform a descriptive analysis of a series of patients with recurrent macroscopic haematuria after a primary standard evaluation including computed tomography urography (CTU) and cystoscopy negative for urinary bladder cancer (UBC) and upper tract urothelial cancer (UTUC) and to identify potential factors associated with occurrence of recurrent macroscopic haematuria. Methods: All p
Climate change has diverse effects on the planet’s environment, including changes and shifts in the distribution and abundance of species. In this paper, we present a robust prediction ensemble algorithm for the current and future species distribution of Aegilops tauschii. Four modeling approaches were trained using various environmental variables (bioclimatic and soil variables) to accurately pre
