Båtklubben i Kiviks hamn har länge upplevt problem med stora vågor i hamnbassängen. Denna studie ämnar att fastslå vilka vågförhållanden och fenomen som ger upphov till dessa problem, samt att föreslå åtgärder. En undersökning av vågklimatet utanför hamnen utförs med hjälp av en enkel modell, kallad SPM, som beräknar en tidsserie vågor utifrån meteorologisk och geografisk data. För att kartlägga vThe yacht club in Kivik marina has experienced problems with large waves in the harbour basin for a long time. This study aims to determine the wave conditions and phenomena that give rise to these problems, and to propose measures. An investigation of the wave climate outside the harbour is carried out using a simple model, called SPM, which calculates a time series of waves based on meteorologic

Advokater har länge letat efter sätt att effektivisera sitt arbete och på bästa sätt tillvarata klientens intresse. Artificiell intelligens har vuxit fram som den allra mest lovordade tekniken för att åstadkomma stora effektiviseringar av advokatens arbetsuppgifter. Ett dokumentgranskande AI-verktyg med större precision i juridisk problemlösning än de flesta advokater står nu till vissa advokaters

Landslide susceptibility mapping is among the first works for disaster management and land use planning activities in a mountain area like Ganzhou City. The aims of the current study are to assess GIS-based landslide spatial modeling using four models, namely data-driven evidential belief function (EBF), frequency ratio (FR), maximum entropy (Maxent), and logistic regression (LR), and to compare t

In recent years, application of ensemble models has been increased tremendously in various types of natural hazard assessment such as landslides and floods. However, application of this kind of robust models in groundwater potential mapping is relatively new. This study applied four data mining algorithms including AdaBoost, Bagging, generalized additive model (GAM), and Naive Bayes (NB) models to

INTRODUCTION: Social prescribing (SP) is an innovative model that connects individuals to non-clinical community resources. However, its uptake and evaluation have been hindered by inconsistent role definitions for key stakeholders. Although recent studies have refined SP definitions, outside the UK, the responsibilities, educational backgrounds and training requirements of social prescribing link

At the emergency department, it is important to quickly and accurately identify patients at risk of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). One of the main tools for detecting AMI is the electrocardiogram (ECG), which can be difficult to interpret manually. There is a long history of applying machine learning algorithms to ECGs, but such algorithms are quite data hungry, and correctly labeled high-qual

Time-domain induced polarization (TDIP) data carry spectral information that can be used for petrophysical interpretation. At the same time, TDIP data can be collected in the field more efficiently than frequency-domain induced polarization (FDIP) data, thanks to the use of square-wave signals. However, TDIP field data are prone to noise, particularly strong near industrial installations and urban

I Sverige finns en rättstradition att läkare utan att riskera åtal, på grund av olika ansvarsfrihetsprinciper, kan utföra ingrepp på en patient som i straffrättslig mening annars hade klassats som brott. Den ansvarsfrihetsprincip som är av störst vikt för läkare är den om social adekvans. Till skillnad från övriga ansvarsfrihetsprinciper är denna princip inte lagstadgad och är i stället formuleradThere is a legal tradition in Sweden that doctors without risking prosecution, due to different discharge principles, can perform procedures on a patient that otherwise would be classified as crimes. The most important discharge principle for doctors is the principle of social adequacy. Unlike other discharge principles, this principle is not statutory and is formulated as a principle of law. It i

The development cooperation between the ACP (African, Caribbean, Pacific) Countries and the European Union (The European Community and its Member States) has evolved during a period of about 45 years. The first stumbling steps were directed towards advanced trade but later on other important factors came into play. The trend today is towards deepened discussions in a number of areas, such as human

The pursuit for equality between men and women is an ongoing struggle. One of the largest differences between men and women in general is the amount of time spent taking care of children and the home. This difference between men and women is one of the reasons women have less opportunity to pursue a career, be financially independent or take part in politics in most parts of the world. This differ

Abstract Author(s): Robert Hildingsson Title: When zero-vision is no longer valid. A study in Social Work on the experiences of the Substitution treatment. Supervisor: Annika Capelán Köhler Assessor: TBA The purpose of the study was to shed some light on the national drug policy of “zero-vision” – that is, the Swedish governmental no-drug policy – from the point of view of the participants of th

Daylight has beneficial psychological and health effects that range from enhanced alertness, mood improvements, increased productivity, and well-being. Recently, the interest in non-visual (also called biological) effect of light has increased substantially. Yet, a limited number of research has investigated the non-visual effects of light in Nordic climates. The aim of this thesis is to assess th

Människor spenderar mycket tid inomhus, närmre 90 % av sin livstid. För att erhålla ett bra inneklimat med god luftkvalité krävs att byggnader ventileras. Därför utrustas de ofta med mekaniska ventilationssystem. Trots detta är SBS (Sick Building Syndrome) ett allvarligt problem. Orsaken till att vissa byggnader blir ”sjuka” tros bero på bland annat dålig ventilation. För att avgöra om ett ventilaPeople spend a lot of time indoors, closer to 90% of their lifetime. To obtain a good indoor climate with good air quality buildings need to be ventilated. Therefore, they are often equipped with mechanical ventilation systems. Nevertheless, SBS (Sick Building Syndrome) is a serious problem. The reason that some buildings become "sick" is believed to be due to, among other things, poor v

Public Private Partnership, PPP, is a public procurement method involving the private sector used in several countries all over the world, now upcoming in Sweden. The UK, most prominent within this method, states that it offers good value for money, but the economic and financial benefits of PPP are still uncertain and subjects of debate. In order for the projects to be successful and to achieve v

Framväxten av elektronisk handel under 1990-talet ansågs av både OECD och EU skapa såväl förutsättningar för stora vinster för företag som stora utmaningar för skattemyndigheterna. Till sin natur är elektronisk handeln global, omedelbar, utan traditionella gränser och genomförs med relativ anonymitet . Dessa aspekter innebär svårigheter för ett traditionellt skattesystem. Enligt sjätte mervärdesskThe emergence of electronic commerce in the 1990's was acknowledged by both the OECD and the EU to bring about prospects of great profits for businesses as well as huge challenges for fiscal authorities. By its very nature, electronic commerce is global, instantaneous, without traditional borders and conducted with relative anonymity. These aspects make it difficult for a traditional tax syste

Author: Linn Adolfsson & Emma Ljungsten Title: Roller och förväntningar – En kvalitativ studie om förskollärares resonemang kring deras anmälningsskyldighet Supervisor: Mikael Sandgren In Sweden there are many children who are in need of help from the social services. For the social service to be able to do their job, and help the children and their family, they need people to notify them abo

This thesis presents the work I did for the inclusive search for anomalous production of same charge lepton-pairs, originating from the collision point, at sqrt(s) = 8 TeV with the ATLAS detector at the LHC using the 2012 data. I optimized the selection criteria for isolated electrons and muons, calculated the so-called "fake factors" and "fake factor" systematic uncertainties

DPM is a manufacturing company within the metal cutting industry. A number of years ago there emerged a desire to make statistical calculations for its production. Until today, the company has not done any post-calculations, which means that they have based their cost calculations and sales prices on precalculated costs. The absence of post-calculations leads to lack of cost-consciousness that is
