As the primary objective of the thesis was to reduce the need for staffing and manual rounds at Västhamnsverket and to be able to control the process from Filbornaverket, we have developed a new feature description for Västhamnsverkets fuel transportation system and made a realization of this feature description in an ABB 800xA system. At present day the fuel transportation system is regulated fro
This study aims to contribute to solving the mystery associated with smart investment strategies. It seems impossible to find an extraordinary investment strategy that can outperform the usual returns on the market. Including 116 stocks from Stockholmsbörsens large and mid cap, this study examines if alpha values are stable over time, and if so an investment in a portfolio based on high alpha valu
Syfte: Syftet med studien är att undersöka kommunikationsprofesionen i ett postfordistiskt arbetsliv. Metod: Studien fokuserar på kommunikationsprofessionen ur ett frilans- och egenföretagarperspektiv. Vi undersöker uppgifterna, arbetsvillkoren samt hur arbetarna upplever sitt arbete som frilansare. För att genomföra studien har vi genomfört 9 kvalitativa intervjuer och en intervju via mejl. Vi an
Syftet med studien är att analysera huruvida Svenska börsbolag agerar opportunistiskt när man väljer diskonteringsränta för nedskrivningsprövning av goodwill genom en jämförelse med teoretiska diskonteringsräntor framräknade enligt CAPM.
Föreliggande studie är en kritisk diskursanalys av ledarskapsprogrammet Ledaren i Mig. Programmet riktar sig till skolor och syftar till att lära elever att “leda sig själv”. Syftet med studien är att undersöka hur begreppet och behovet av ledarskap konstrueras samt förstå resultatet utifrån disciplinering och styrningsmentalitet. Det teoretiska ramverket för studien utgörs av socialkonstruktionis
Photoionisation dynamics occurring in Ar and N2O upon the absorption of soft X-ray radiation, have been studied through the extraction of the beta parameter from the angular distributions of Ar 2p 3/2 and N2O Nt 1s photoelectrons by a means of Velocity Map Imaging Spectroscopy. The results of beta determined in the dipole approximation for N2O at different photon energies, coincided with pre-docu
Denna studie analyserar sambandet mellan finanspolitisk åtstramning och jämviktsarbetslöshet utifrån historisk, teoretisk och empirisk synvinkel. Den finner att mer finanspolitisk åtstramning är signifikant korrelerad med en ökad jämviktsarbetslöshet. Fackföreningstäthet och högre arbetslöshetsersättning är också signifikant korrelerade med en högre jämviktsarbetslöshet, något som möjligen är känn
The aim of this thesis is to explore how religious practices of the immigrants are shaped after migrating to a more secular country. As a more concrete case, I am interested in the religious practices of Turkish immigrants in Sweden. For the purposes of the study fourteen semi-structured interviews with first generation Turkish immigrants in Malmö were conducted to investigate the changes in relig
Fosfor är ett av de viktigaste näringsämnena och ger upphov till övergödningsproblematik i åar, sjöar och hav. Tidigare undersökningar har visat att trenden för kvävekoncentrationen i Vegeån har varit tydligt minskande men att fosforkoncentration inte visat sig vara vikande. Vegeåns Vattendragsförbund vill undersöka varför samma trend inte syns för fosfor samt kartlägga hur stor den sammanlagda be
Retrieval-induced forgetting (RIF) beskriver ett minnesfenomen där framplockningen av ett visst minne i vissa fall försämrar och påverkar tillgängligheten till andra, relaterade minnen. En framträdande förklaring har presenterats inom inhibitionsteori där aktiv inhibering anses orsaka RIF, genom facilitering i framplockningen av målminnet bland konkurrerande minnen i selektiv minnesframplockning. Retrieval-induced forgetting (RIF) refers to a memory phenomena where retrieval of a memory in some cases can deteriorate and affect the accessibility of related memories. A prominent explanation is presented in the inhibitory theory where active inhibition is considered to cause RIF by facilitating retrieval of a target memory among competing memories in selective memory retrieval. If exertion of
Following the oil price shocks of the 1970s, a great deal of research has been focused on the relationship between oil price changes and macroeconomic variables. However, the body of literature focusing on oil price shocks and stock markets are more limited. In our thesis, we have decided to focus on five OECD countries: Portugal, Ireland, Italy, Greece and Spain, commonly known as the PIIGS econo
Everyday people are facing serious consequences with their sexual and reproductive health. Dissemination of knowledge is therefore necessary. Russia is one country we have identified with this very problem. Strict politics, religious groups and old values are major obstacles that contribute to the prevention of spreading out the right information of a good SRHR to the people. RAPD is the only gove
The aim of this study was to examine the preliminary works that were published prior to the change of the sickness insurance system in 2008. Specifically, the aim was to find out what the main discourses in the texts were and what characterized them. The study examined three preliminary works; one Official Report from the Swedish government, one government bill that proposed the change in legislat
Inspire (2007/2/EG) is a directive initiated by the European Union with the purpose to improve the infrastructure for spatial information. This is thought to contribute to an easier and more convenient way of exchanging the information within the union. The countries of EU have all started their work to include Inspire's guidelines in their legal systems and in the work of their authorities an
This thesis includes eight pupils in their final year of a vocational secondary school education, aspiring to become truck drivers, in a small town in southern Sweden. Through a hermeneutic and qualitative methodological approach the main aim was to understand these pupils and their view on matters regarding their training program, environmental problems, transports link to environmental impact, a
Understanding the fertility transition is of extreme importance for planning public policies on national levels and on a global scale. The fertility transition has been the subject of numerous studies for the past four decades, especially in regards to the determinants of fertility. Nonetheless, in the case of Brazil the literature concentrates on quantitative and positivistic determinants, lackin

It investigates which aspects motivates three companies, IKEA, Skanska and Trelleborg AB, using
This article investigates the relationship between the economic influences a country has and how the market has observed by 10-year government bond yields through a set of macroeconomic variables. It examines a set of OECD countries between 1980 and 2013 dividing them into two groups namely the G7 group and small countries, even though the specific effect of the USA is investigated as well.
