Syftet med denna rapport är att göra en brandteknisk riskvärdering av Falkenbergs ishall och utvärdera det befintliga brandskyddet med avseende på personsäkerhet. Arbetet ingår i kursen Brandteknisk riskvärdering (VBR054) som ges av Avdelningen för Brandteknik vid Lunds Tekniska Högskola. Falkenbergs ishall är belägen i Kristinebergsområdet i Falkenberg. Byggnaden omfattar 3500 m2 och används av iThe aim of this report is to perform a fire safety evaluation in terms of personal safety of an ice hockey arena located in Falkenberg. The building consists of an ice hockey rink, bleachers, changing rooms and some storage areas and is used by schools, sport clubs and the public. To identify fire scenarios that would challenge the building an initial risk analysis was performed. Three fire scenar

In this thesis, the functionality of existing Crazyflie models is extended to include current implementations of attitude and velocity control. The models are validated both as individual agents and as a swarm through comparisons of swarm behaviour during step, ramp and frequency response testing. The models are found to accurately replicate the dynamics of the real system, but additional research

Internenet och humor är något som historiker sällan undersöker. Detta främst då dessa skapar problem med hur man bör ta sig an dem. Frågor om detta skapar ett avvaktande från professionella historiker vilket i sin tur skapar ett problem då många intressanta frågor väcks om man som historiker verkar på internet. Det går att se en typ av material på internet med en tydlig koppling till både humor oc

This report deals with the problem of learning to classify observations from a mixture of random variables. The distributions of the random variables are of known functional forms but with unknown parameters.

This problem is equivalent to that of determining separating hypersurfaces in the range of the random variables. Any rule of classification will be a function of random variables and

This report focuses on CFD-calculations using parallel processors carried out with the software Fire Dynamics Simulator (FDS). From a users point of view the advantages and disadvantages with parallel CFD-calculations were analyzed and evaluated. A simplified me-thod for quantitative evaluation was developed with guidance from ASTM E 1355 whereu-pon relative differences between serial reference sc

There are several accident investigation methods and they are used in a wide range of fields. However, the methods have not been used so much in the fire accident area. In the present thesis, the methods’ capability to investigate fires and what they result in are explored. In addition, answers are given concerning how important the background information is for their applicability. First, a selec

NTRU is a public-key cryptosystem, where the underlying mathematical problem is currently safe against large-scale quantum computer attacks. The system is not as well investigated, as for example RSA, and the company behind NTRU has created the NTRU Challenges, to remedy this. These challenges consist of 27 different public keys of increasing size, where the task in each challenge is to calculate

Using a panel of 18 European OECD countries over the period 1979-2011, this paper re-examines and extends previous empirical evidence on the effects of minority government on fiscal policy outcomes. First government primary balance is separated into revenues and expenditure according to Kontopoulos and Perotti (1999). Second minority governments are categorized into dummy variables according to Ed

Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka hur studenters kreativitet påverkas av användandet av Instant messenger och elektronisk media. Hypoteserna var att studenter som använder instant messenger kommer prestera sämre på kreativitetstest och att det finns en negativa relation mellan hög medieanvändning och prestation på kreativitetstest. Studien utfördes som ett experiment på totalt 50 studenterThe purpose of this study was to examine how students' creativity is affected by the use of Instant Messenger and electronic media. The hypotheses were that students who use Instant Messenger will underperform on creativity tests, and that there is a negative relationship between high media usage and performance on creativity tests. The study was conducted as an experiment on a total of 50 stu

The recent increase in R&D offshoring has raised fears that knowledge and competitiveness in advanced countries may be at risk of 'hollowing out'. At the same time, economic research has stressed that this process is also likely to allow some reverse technology transfer and foster growth at home. This paper addresses this issue by investigating the extent to which R&D offshoring is associa

This paper explores a housing market with an existing tenant in each house and where the existing tenants initially rent their houses. The idea is to identify equilibrium prices for the housing market given the prerequisite that a tenant can buy any house on the housing market, including the one that he currently is possessing, or continue renting the house he currently is occupying. The main cont
