Utifrån handböcker för hållbar dagvattenhantering har information om geometrisk utformning och uppbyggnad av några hållbara dagvatten- anläggningar tagits fram. Tillsammans med bland annat information om effektiv porositet har den totala volymen som dessa anläggningar kan magasinera beräknats med hänsyn till hur ytkrävande de är, kubikmeter dagvatten per kvadratmeter yta. Dessa värden har sedan anBased on manuals for sustainable stormwater management, information about the geometric design and structure of a couple of sustainable storm water facilities was collected. Together with information about the effective porosity and the total volume that these facilities can store it was possible to calculate how space consuming each facility was, cubic meters of rainwater per square meter of surf

In this thesis the automation of an optical sight validation process was studied. The goal was to find a solution for controlling the position of a red dot in a red dot sight. A red dot sight is a non-magnifying reflector sight in which the user sees a red dot instead of a reticle. The movement of the dot was performed by fastening and unfastening adjustment screws on the sight. A side goal was to

This paper aims to examine the roots of the Egyptian revolution of 2011, by tracing the vital variables for mobilization to flourish. This is made possible through the creation of a mobilization model based on the theoretical framework of Rational Choice and Collective Action, in combination with Charles Tilly’s writings on the subject. The model’s variables can then be examined in depth through a

Resource related challenges are becoming increasingly severe. The shift towards a circular economy is viewed as one prominent way to overcome the challenges. A shift towards a circular economy would partly require new business models, commonly referred to as circular business models. In order to enhance the development of circular business models, there is a need to understand how companies with c

Det finns i svensk rätt inget samordnat skydd för den personliga integriteten, utan istället är det olika bestämmelser i brottsbalken som aktualiseras när det skett kränkningar av den personliga integriteten privatpersoner emellan. Ett exempel på en sådan kränkning är hämndporr, från engelskans ”revenge porn”, som innebär ett spridande av bild eller film med sexuellt innehåll på annan person utan The Swedish law lacks a general law that protects personal integrity. Instead there are provisions in brottsbalken, the Swedish Penal Code, that are applicable when there have been violations of the personal integrity between individuals. An example of such a violation is revenge porn, the non-consensual distribution of photos or videos of sexual nature. After the Swedish Supreme Court’s ruling,

Den ökade användningen av läkemedel och otillräcklig teknik i reningsverken har lett till allt större halter av läkemedel och andra organiska mikroföroreningar (OMF) i naturliga vatten. Detta har i sin tur konstaterats påverka exempelvis fiskars beteende och fortplantningsförmåga. OMF har även detekterats i det svenska dricksvattnet. På grund av detta har en satsning skett de senaste åren inom forThe increased use of pharmaceuticals in combination with inadequate techniques and procedures in the wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) have resulted in higher concentrations of pharmaceuticals and other organic micro pollutants (OMPs) in the aquatic environment. It has been established that these pollutants have caused changes in the behaviour and reproduction of fishes. Furthermore, these OMPs

Bakgrund: OF Ekeri är ett nationellt företag med kontor i Markaryd. De levererar och hyr ut ett stort utbud av olika typer av lastbilssläp som till exempel släpvagnar, påhängsvagnar och reservdelar.

African cooperatives are in the process to adapt to a liberalised economy where they are expected to function as independent business entities. So is also the case in Uganda where the competition on the free market puts pressure on cooperative performance. This thesis asks the question why some cooperatives fail in this context while others succeed and tries to find the answer in the organisationa

In order to attain an understanding of the emerging of a collective foreign policy in Europe, the thesis sheds light over the Arab-Israeli conflict and how the interlocked crises of the 1970s in the Middle East affected the evolving of a European common position in the region. The study is based on realist assumptions and uses the theory about states cooperating as a strategy of balancing global

In 2017 the Upper Secondary School Act [Hereafter gymnasielag/en] was adopted in Sweden and provided temporary residence permits and a chance of permanent residency to ‘unaccompanied refugee minors’ who previously had been denied asylum. This study includes voices of four young people who have managed to fulfil this journey from temporary permits to permanent. Moreover, three people who through va

Thesis purpose: The purpose of our research is to examine the intersection of organisational change and the corporate brand identity in the hybrid workplace model. We explore the implications of the model on the corporate brand identity, how brand identity may be shaped in the model and the reasons why identity may change during the hybrid workplace model transformation. Theoretical perspective:

Number theory is in a sense among the oldest disciplines of mathematics. A running theme is that many number theoretic problems are very easy to state and understand. However, actually solving these problems often requires much work or some very clever trick. An extreme case of this would be Fermat's last theorem: originally a conjecture by French lawyer Pierre de Fermat whose statement is und

Purpose: The purpose of the study is to create a better understanding of how collective creativity processes are influenced by the shift in space when employees are forced to work from home (WFH). Research Question: How has the enforced WFH affected collective creativity processes? Methodology: The study was conducted by in-depth semi-structured interviews with employees from a large Swedish mult

The focus of this master’s thesis has been getting a six-legged robot to autonomously navigate around a room with obstacles. To make this possible a time-of-flight camera has been implemented in order to map the environment. Two force sensing resistors were also mounted on the front legs to sense if the legs are in contact with the ground. The information from the sensors together with a path plan

Biometric recognition systems are widely used to recognize an individual. Fingerprints is a biometric identifier and are today widely used in smartphones for biometric recognition. The fingerprint software used in smartphones are great and fast, and usually implemented for one person usage. A fingerprint software used for smartphones often conducts a one-to-one comparison between the sample and th
