The watch officer on board of vessels of the Netherlands Royal Navy has to deal with a wide variety of interest during his/her duty. Despite the wide variety of interests the watch officer has to manage, the amount of incidents and accidents is few. Apparently, the watch officers of the Netherlands Royal Navy are well able to manage this wide variety of interests. The aim of this thesis research
This study sought to investigate the effect of microplastics on Mytilus edulis’s ability to filtrate water. The mussels were sampled at Hanö bay located in the Baltic Sea, and were transported to a controlled environment. The mussels were exposed to three different solutions, one containing a concentration of 1 000 Microbeads (diameter 10 μm) per liter, one containing the same amount of plastic be
The aircraft of today use electrical fly-by-wire systems for manoeuvring. These safety-critical distributed systems are called flight control systems and put high requirements on the communication networks that interconnect the parts of the systems. Reliability, predictability, flexibility, low weight and cost are important factors that all need to be taken in to consideration when designing a saf
There are only a few construction projects that include a Logistic Manager today. In many cases the profit is hard to see, since the involving tasks in logistics are the same even if there is a Logistic Manager included in the project or not. It may seem like the job is already taken care of and that a Logistic Manager therefore would be unnecessary. Even though the project tasks are the same, the
Om ett ekosystem ska fortsätta att förse samhället med viktiga tjänster måste det vara anpassningsbart. Som en del av ett ekosystem är arters förmåga att förflytta sig över landskapet vitalt för anpassningen. Grönstruktur underlättar förflyttningen av arter i ett landskap fragmenterat av bebyggelse och barriärer. Vid ett förändrat klimat är grönstruktur viktigt av två anledningar. Ökat antal extreFor an ecosystem to be able to continue to provide important services to society, it must be able to adapt to change. As part of an ecosystem, the ability of a species to migrate in the landscape is vital for the adaption to change. A green infrastructure allows the movement of species in a landscape fragmented by human influenced land use. The importance of a green infrastructure is twofold in a
This report describes the design and development of weather shield concepts for wall-mounted fixed dome surveillance cameras. The aim was to create concepts that would have better functionality against rain than current solutions while at the same time being attractive, non-obtrusive products. During the first phase the challenges of a weather shield were explored in detail. Areas such as differe
Ett införande av visitationszoner har vid ett flertal tillfällen föreslagits av olika partier till Sveriges riksdag som en åtgärd för att motverka våldsbrott och minska antalet vapen i samhället. Innebörden av en sådan zon är, enligt förslagen, att polisen ska få en rätt att kroppsvisitera människor och genomföra en husrannsakan i fordon för att söka efter vapen eller andra farliga föremål. Den ut
Den här uppsatsens syfte är att reda ut och redogöra för hur straffmätningen kring livsstraffet vid mord går till i Sverige och Danmark. Uppsatsen har skrivits ur ett komparativt synsätt i syfte att jämföra länderna och således också analysera likheter och skillnader. Livstidsstraff kan i teorin dömas ut för ett antal grova brott i både Danmark och Sverige men döms i praktiken nästan enbart ut i
Ex vivo organ perfusion is a technique that aims to increase the amount of organ donors by treating an otherwise nonfunctional organ with a perfusion fluid outside of the body to restore its function. UGLK Science is an ex vivo organ perfusion company outside of Lund specializing in kidney transplantation. The organ is perfused in a machine which restores kidney function, allowing the organ to sur
Denna studie syftade till att undersöka samband mellan prokrastinering, rutin, livstillfredsställelse, inre motivation och fysisk aktivitet hos studenter på Lunds Universitet. Vidare undersöktes om det går att predicera både prokrastinering och livstillfredsställelse med resterande faktorer, och sist utforskades det om det fanns någon skillnad i resultaten mellan de olika fakulteterna vid universiThis study aimed to investigate the relationships between procrastination, routine, quality of life, intrinsic motivation, and physical activity among students at Lund University. Furthermore, the study examined whether procrastination and quality of life could be predicted by the other factors, and finally explored if there were any differences in the results between the various faculties at the
De nuvarande metoderna som tillämpas av olika företag och forskare när det gäller om att räkna cykelvolym i olika tätorter har förbättrats över tiden. Dock har det aldrig varit felfri, vilket har lett till fortsatta studier och ännu mer utrymme att förbättra de befintliga metoderna. Därför är syftet med rapporten att ytterligare analysera det som redan har gjorts och hur man kan överträffa nuvaranThe current methods employed by different companies and researchers when it comes to measuring bike volume at different urban environments have been improving over time. However, it has never been completely flawless, leading to future studies and even more room to improve the existing methods. Which is why, the purpose of this report is to further analyze what has already been done and how to exc
The partnership and development cooperation between the European Union (EU) and Africa is described as a key priority for the European Commission and their aim is to further strengthen the partnership (European Commission 2020). However, the relationship between the European Union and the African continent has a deep and complex history that has been characterized by colonial ties and unequal powe
Advisor: Elias Bengtsson Purpose: To investigate the effect of commodity price hedging activities had on firm value during the COVID-19 Crisis. Theoretical Perspective: The foundation of this study is built upon the significant theories of Perfect Market Theory, Information Asymmetry, Agency Cost, Risk Shifting, and the emerging concept of ESG. Methodology: The paper utilizes a Two-Way Fixed E
Under våren 2022 genomförde anställningsskyddslagen en förändring och den svenska arbetsrätten anses vara reformerad. En förändring av den svenska arbetsrätten har inte varit så omfattande sedan anställningsskyddslagen infördes 1973. Arbetsmarknaden präglas av kraven på flexibilitet och rörlighet samtidigt som anställningsskyddet behöver vara en trygghet för arbetstagare. Den svenska arbetsmarknadIn the spring of 2022, the Employment Protection Act implements a change and Swedish labor law is considered reformed. The transformation of Swedish labor law has not been as extensive since the introduction of the Employment Protection Act in 1973. The labor market is characterized by demands for flexibility and mobility, while employment protection needs to provide security for employees. The Sw
This study was done to get an understanding of how tillage effects biodiversity in agriculture soil. Therefore, this study focused on the soil organisms and various physical and chemical processes that can affect them. Soil organisms are crucial to agricultural landscapes as they perform biological processes that improve soil structure, nutrient cycling and decomposition. To ensure food produc
The growing demand for network cameras to support real-time image processing and machine-learning applications has created a need for low-power solutions. Although technology scaling makes complex computations feasible, voltage scaling is limited, leading to higher power density and dark silicon problems. One potential solution is the use of Approximate Arithmetic Circuits (AACs). This effectively
