As the world is changing rapidly in many ways, competition is getting increasingly fierce amongst manufacturing firms. As such, it has become more and more important for companies to properly understand the needs of their customers in order to provide enough value to be sufficiently competitive. Providing delivery and installation services which might’ve been viewed as necessary evils before have
Idag byggs det oerhört mycket. Nyproducerade bostäder konstrueras samt att äldre byggnader renoveras. Då är det viktigt att inte den större fokusen ligger på den ekonomiska- och ekologiska hållbarheten, utan även på den sociala hållbarheten. Detta för att förebygga ett segregerat samhälle som vi idag ser resultat av och drivs emot. Genom gemensamma bostadsgårdsytor skapar vi nya samlingsplatser. D
The claims for the potential of boreal and sub-boreal forests to combat negative effects of climate change have been substantial with over half of Earth’s primary forests found within boreal and temperate regions of the Northern Hemisphere. Given the likely occurrence of more extreme climate events in the future, ascertaining a better understanding of how climate effects, such as profound fluctu
Critics maintain that there are a number of troublesome issues resulting from the construction sector’s way of operating and that these remain, despite widespread criticism and measures designed to change all of this. The construction sector’s and the critics’ manner of describing these problems fails to a large extent to take into consideration the way people function in connection with practical

The purpose of the thesis is to investigate abandoned carts amongst logged in customers with at least one product added in to their cart and at least one visit to the payment page. Since the response variable "cart" is binary and we are studying the probability of a cart being abandoned, the suitable me
The processes of meltwater storage in firn and the impact of refreezing on firn-coveredglaciers have been investigated on the Greenland ice-sheet. On Svalbard, climate changepromotes the disappearance of firn on glaciers. This thesis project aims to monitor theheat exchanges between the snowpack and the ice surface on a non firn-covered glacier,on Foxfonna, Spitzbergen, Svalbard, and to draw the p
A Warehouse Management System (WMS) is a software that tracks and manages warehouse activities. The first WMS was introduced in 1975 and today the WMS market is valued at over USD 3 billion. Most warehouses use one as quality assurance becomes unlikely plausible without software support. This thesis focuses on Company X, who are the third-largest manufacturer by revenue in their industry and a
As CO2 builds up in the atmosphere causing global climate change (IPCC, 2022) trees have become an international symbol of combatting this, and for good reason. Trees take up CO2 which as a result combats these changes, and when these trees are cut down fewer individuals remain to take up the CO2 that we humans emit (Chapin et al., 2011). This means that clear-cut areas don’t act as the carbon sin
Avfallshanteringen har genom tiderna bestått av mycket deponering där allt avfall som uppstod slängdes i naturen utan adekvata skyddsåtgärder, vilket idag utgör förorenade områden. Ett förorenat område kan medföra skada eller olägenheter för människors hälsa och miljö. Sverige har flera mål för att skapa en hållbar utveckling, ett av dessa är Giftfri miljö där det ingår att åtgärda förorenade områThroughout history, waste management has consisted of a lot of landfilling, where all the waste generated is being disposed of in the environment without adequate protective measures. These areas constitute contaminated areas today. A contaminated area can cause damage or inconvenience to human health and the environment. Sweden has several goals to create sustainable development, one of these is
In this thesis I explore the subject on how burial was used by Viking Age population of South-western Scania to express their social identity. As opposed to most earlier research concerning Viking Age burials I utilise regional, mourner-centred and practice-based approach. I am following observations conducted for burials in Denmark by J. Ulriksen (2011), focused on traces of deposition of burned
Currently, policy makers put high attention in supplying global energy demand by focusing on 2°C policy; global temperature anomaly based on the global mean temperature of pre-industrial era (13.7°C). How to keep the 2°C policy at global scope is the main question in climate framework. It is widely believed that primary energy resources (mainly coal, oil and natural gas) with focus on shale gas re
Children affected by the multisystem genetic disorder Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome look prematurely aged, suffer from elderly-related conditions and die during adolescence due to cardiovascular complications. The cause of the disease is single point gain-of-function mutations in the LMNA gene, which encodes the lamin A and lamin C proteins, major components of the nuclear lamina. These mut
How will baby fish react to global warming? As most people have been aware of, global warming is just one of many consequences of climate change and increasing CO2-levels in the atmosphere. The oceans are experts at absorbing energy, which makes the ocean temperature rise. In many parts of the world, especially Australia, the sea surface temperatures (SSTs) are increasing rapidly today. This is e

Denna studie presenterar en detaljerad undersökning av utvecklingen av sedimentära landformer under en ablationssäsong vid Blåisen, en del av Hardangerjøkulen, Norge. Två besök vid Blåisen, i början och i slutet av ablationssäsongen, gjorde det möjligt att studera hur landformerna bevaras och utvecklas. Det pågår mycket forskning om glaciala landformer som är en nyckel till förståelse av hur tidigThis study presents a detailed investigation into the evolution of sedimentary landforms over an ablation season at Blåisen, an outlet of the Hardangerjøkulen Icecap, Norway. The two visits to Blåisen, one each side of the ablation season, allowed the preservation and evolution of the landforms to be studied. Much research is conducted studying glacial landforms, which are key in our understanding
Det här examensarbetet handlar om att undersöka hur framkomligheten ser ut i korsningen Karlsrovägen-Västrevångleden i Halmstad kommun. Det är en trevägskorsning utan någon signalreglering och, cykel- och gångtrafiken är separerad från biltrafiken. Innan fokus läggs på själva korsningen presenteras kunskap om hur man går tillväga för att undersöka framkomlighet och trafiksäkerhet samt innebördenThis thesis is about investigating what the passability looks like at the crossing Karlsrovägen-Västrevångleden in Halmstad municipality. It is a three-way intersection without any signal control and, bicycle and pedestrian traffic is separated from car traffic. Before focusing on the crossing itself, information is presented on how to proceed to investigate passability and traffic safety, as wel

Alla påverkas av cancer, direkt eller indirekt och under de senaste decennierna har antalet cancerfall ökat. Med strålbehandling kan man bekämpa cancern genom att bestråla tumören med joniserande strålning samtidigt som man försöker skydda omkringliggande frisk vävnad i den mån det går. Med dagens teknik kan man uppnå bättre tumörkontroll samtidigt som den friska vävnaden kan skyddas i större utrsBackground/Purpose: The aperture shape controller (ASC) was introduced in the Eclipse treatment planning system to reduce plan complexity by counteracting irregular multileaf collimator (MLC) shapes. This should lead to decreased difference between the planned and measured dose distribution. The ASC was investigated to examine if it could limit plan complexity so that the planned and measured dose
The Internet has revolutionised the global market place. Internet shopping is now accessible to an increasing numbers of people. In theory, this new form of media offers convenience, speed and choice to the consumer, but the question is whether it works in practice? Business-to-consumer cross-border transactions, whether carried out electronically or otherwise, are subject to the existing framewor
