What happens next? - A qualitative study about a future follow-up care for young offenders in Sweden Author: Charlotte Sannestad & Mattias Strand Title: What happens next? - A qualitative study about a future follow-up care for young offenders in Sweden [translated title] Supervisor: Anders Östnäs Assessor: Sune Sunesson The purpose of this study is to take a closer look at Swedish young adul
This report describes how you can create an application that uses Microsoft’s technologies, Windows Workflow Foundation, Windows Forms and Windows Presentation Foundation, to create and edit workflows. Companies have all sorts of processes, which support their business. Like create an E-mailaccount in the company’s network. When companies reorganize or streamline their business the processes needs
The task consisted in helping Tetra Pak with the problem that they today have with unexplained deformation of their creasing carriages. Tetra Pak uses different carriages depending on which kind of packaging that is to be manufactured. The carriages are hauled in and pulled in to the production line when another type of packaging is to be manufactured. Basically the carriages look the same, the th
The aim of this master thesis is to investigate ideas in the Swedish debate about e-books in relation to Litteraturutredningen (2012), with focus on ideas that concern access of e-books within the public library. Access is discussed in relation to Buckland’s (1991) six barriers of access of information and Habermas’s (2003) democratic public sphere, as well as the Swedish Library Act (2013:801). I
This present study is a qualitative examination of government policy regarding Danish, unemployed and uneducated youths. The empirical basis for the study consists of fieldwork, in the form of participant observation and qualitative interviews. The physical field of study consisted of the municipality of Uddannelsesby. Within the study informants, such as the aforementioned youths, but also munici
The aim of the project was to investigate and evaluate different extraction methods for detection of human DNA in environmental crime scene samples containing soil. Soil is a complex and heterogeneous material consisting of several inhibitory compounds, which makes it difficult to extract DNA from such samples. The investigation included the evaluation of 19 different extraction methods based on s
This study investigated the “relationship between tree species composition and phenology extracted from satellite data in Swedish forests”. The proposed method investigated in this study aims at mapping the fractional composition of deciduous/coniferous tree species and also the fractional composition of Norway spruce (Picea abies) and several pine (Pinus sp.). The fractions can then be used to cl
Purpose: The purpose of this thesis is to investigate which firm-specific variables can explain the cross-section of expected stock returns in the German market. The tested explanatory variables are market beta, firm size, the book-to-market ratio, the earnings-to-price ratio, leverage, the dividend yield, the cash flow-to-price ratio and sales growth. Furthermore, the thesis also examines the con
Many systems within the IT infrastructure have a Command Line Interface (CLI) for configuration changes. Some of these systems may expose a Configuration Management interface over a web service but this web service usually only exposes a fraction of the configuration possibilities in a CLI. Thus it would be of great help to investigate how a framework for automated CLI discovery can be developed,
A sustainable approach could be a solution for the tourism industry to reduce its climate impact. The aim of this thesis was to develop a sustainable tourism strategy, in collaboration with Swedish region Halland. The sustainability concept was set against the developed tourism strategy, both on a theoretical and practical level. The strategy was compared to other sustainable tourism strategies a
The characteristics of Boron Carbide (B4C) coated polyvinyltoluene scintillators with a sputtered B4C coating ranging between 200 and 1000 nm have been studied using a photomultiplier - Lanthanum Bromide detector setup with a PuBe neutron source. The raw data from the detectors was analysed by imposing a detector coincidence condition. The coated scintillators have been compared with a commercial
The thesis work was given on the request from ÅR Carton to produce a circuit able to measure current, voltage, frequency and the phase shift between the current and voltage in a one turn coil. The measured data was also to be sent to a computer for later use in analyzing the data. The most important question was which method to use to measure the current in the coil, suggested alternatives were be
Authors: Rebecka Werngren and Sofia Ekblom Title: The last way out. A qualitative study of how social workers reach a motion about compulsory institutional care for youth. [translated title] Supervisor: Claes Levin The purpose of this study has been to examine social workers opinion about compulsory institutional care for youths. The aim has been to recognize how professionals reach decisions abo
INTRODUCTION: Postpartum depression is considered a major public health problem, which immigrant mothers are at particular risk of being affected by, but it can also have long-lasting traumatic effects on the child's health and development. The Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale is the world's most commonly employed screening instrument for postpartum depression, used in connection with a clinic
Dominant policy approaches have failed to generate action at anywhere near the rate, scale or depth needed to avert climate change and environmental disaster. In particular, they fail to address the need for a fundamental cultural transformation, which involves a collective shift in mindsets (values, beliefs, worldviews and associated inner human capacities). Whilst scholars and practitioners are
Experimental and numerical studies were performed to understand the flame characteristics and cooling effect of jet-cooled wall flameholders in a simplified augmented combustor. The time-averaged flame structure and wall temperature were investigated employing an instantaneous flame capturing system with image processing technology and a wall temperature measurement system, respectively. Flow and
OBJECTIVE: Diagnostic criteria for ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) in patients with suspected reflex syncope are lacking. We hypothesized that patients with reflex syncope have a higher prevalence of systolic blood pressure (SBP) drops on ABPM. DESIGN AND METHOD: We conducted a retrospective analysis comparing ABPM data from reflex syncope patients and controls, matched by average 24-h
Early detection of breast cancer is important to reduce morbidity and mortality. Access to breast imaging is limited in low- and middle-income countries compared to high-income countries. This contributes to advance-stage breast cancer presentation with poor survival. Pocket-sized portable ultrasound device, also known as point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS), aided by decision support using deep learn
Power dissipation has been the major challenge in the downscaling of transistor technology. Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistors (MOSFETs) have struggled to keep a low power consumption while still maintaining a high performance due to the low carrier mobilities of Si but also due to their inherent minimum inverse subthreshold slope (S ≥ 60 mV/dec) which is limited by thermionic emis
