Prediction of the service lifetime of concrete structures with respect to chloride ingress involves a number of parameters that are associated with large uncertainties. Hence, full-scale measurements are strongly in demand. This paper begins by summarizing statistical distributions based on measurements taken from the Gimsøystraumen Bridge in Norway. A large number of chloride profiles are availab
Healthcare in Sweden is dealing with problems regarding accessibility for patients. Moreover, there is a lack of an overall model concerning matching specialist care to patients. Against this background, the purpose was to develop a preliminary healthcare matching model and discuss the barriers of this model. Theoretically, the study draws on the concepts of matching and coordination completed wit
Purpose: Resilience has been suggested as an important predictor of both physical and mental health-related quality of life in breastcancer patients. However, it is unclear why resilient women handle their diagnosis better, not only mentally, but also physically. Theaim of this study was to investigate paths between resilience, physical activity, and mental, physical, and global health-related qua
In response to customer specific service time guarantee requirements, service providers can offer differentiated services. Although response time agreements offer more flexibility, most of the theoretical models for customer differentiation are based on fill rates, due to the difficulty of calculating the response time distribution in the presence of priorities. In this paper we focus on the (S−1,
Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingen består av tre uppsatser som behandlar empiriska tillämpningar av makroekonomiska teorier. Uppsatserna är fristående från varandra, men knyts samman genom att kointegrationsanalys används i de empiriska analyserna. Kointegrationsanalys är en statistisk metod som syftar till att hitta långsiktiga samband mellan olika variabler i ett empiriskt datamaterial. EfThis thesis focuses on empirical applications and tests of macroeconomic theories. It consists of three fairly distinct essays, bound together by the common theme of the use of cointegration analysis in the empirical macroeconomic analysis. The first chapter is an introductory chapter, while chapter two, three and four contain the three essays. The first essay, Wage Formation and the Relation bet
We evaluate a place-based policy aimed at commercial service providers. In 2016, the Swedish government introduced special operating support for grocery stores in remote rural areas to slow down the process of store closures. We estimate the local causal effect in a regression discontinuity design framework using the fact that only stores located at least 15 km away from another store were eligibl
This article explores the environmental impact of logistics service provider (LPS) activities in the light of increased customer priorities and the fragmentation of the industry. The research is based on a narrative literature review, an interview study, a case survey, and three in-depth case studies. A framework on sustainability challenges in supply chains derived from the literature is used to
Popular Abstract in Swedish Emilia Fogelklou (1878-1972) utbildades vid Högre Lärarinneseminariet och Uppsala universitet, där hon som första kvinna i Sverige tog en teologie kandidat (1909). En stark gudsupplevelse i unga år hade kommit att styra hela hennes liv. Hon fick så småningom sitt religiösa hem hos kväkarna. Som sökare och gränsöverskridare spände hennes liv och verk över vida fält, främEmilia Fogelklou (1878-1972) was the first woman in Sweden to take a degree in theology (1909) and later became a Quaker. She was a teacher and writer, mainly in the fields of religious education and psychology, and an active supporter of peace and other women's movements. Her autobiographical series, Arnold (1944), Bareheaded (1950), and Ready to Travel (1954), is written in the third person, Fog
Abstract—Resource management in IT–enterprises gain more and more attention due to high operation costs. For instance, web sites are subject to very changing traffic–loads over the year, over the day, or even over the minute. Online adaption to the changing environment is one way to reduce losses in the operation. Control systems based on feedback provide methods for such adaption, but is in natur
For extremely large telescopes, there is strong need for thin deformable mirrors in the 3-4 m class. So far, feasibility of such mirrors has not been demonstrated. Extrapolation from existing techniques suggests that the mirrors could be highly expensive. We give a progress report on a study of an approach for construction of large deformable mirrors with a moderate cost. We have developed low-cos
The ongoing refugee crisis has divided the European Union. While some states shelter hundreds of thousands of refugees, others only grant asylum to a handful. This phenomenon is creating a demographic rift inside the union and is also causing internal quarrels over joint responsibility, which possibly could undermine the existence of the organization. In this thesis we search for the potential cau
Background and issue of study: The global financial crisis, climate change, demographic changes, and rising inequality are some of the global trends that put pressure on public leaders and organizations, civil society organizations and corporations to shift to a social and environmental sustainable development. Social innovations are demanded to be both drivers of positive societal change and forc
