Furthermore the study also aims to describe the school counselors comprehension on their work
Preterm birth is a leading cause for birth complications and neonatal mortality in the world. It remains difficult to predict whether a preterm birth will occur, which hinders the possible use of prevention treatments. This thesis investigates the use of machine learning models in the prediction of spontaneous preterm birth. In addition, possible heterogeneous performance of these models among dif
De senaste tio åren har antalet sökta bygglov för småhus med träregelstomme mer än fördubblats. I dagsläget finns inget allmänt krav att säkerställa horisontalkapacitet för småhus men är något som beställaren kan efterfråga och som många konstruktörer någon gång upplevt problematiskt. Projekteringsfasen kan bli tidskrävande där lösningar för att fastställa kapacitet mot vindlast blir dyra och kompIn the last ten years, the number of building permits applied for houses with timber frame structure has more than doubled. Today, there is no general requirement to establish horizontal capacity, but is something that can be demanded and that many structural engineers have occasionally experienced as problematic. The design phase can then be time-consuming, where solutions for determining capacit
Healthcare systems around the world are facing a multitude of challenges, mostly because of aging populations. The Covid-19 pandemic put further strain on the sector and has left many countries with a backlog of medical procedures, which further exacerbates the issues. New technological products and solutions are one way to relieve healthcare workers and enable more efficient care. Zymego is a com
Syftet med detta arbete är att se hur lean kan implementeras med hjälp av personalens utökade förståelse för leanverktygens fördelar vid användning, för ökad produktivitet utan utökade resurser. Projektet utfördes i ett företag med begränsning till två avdelningar. Litteratur och revisionen gav en bild av personalens kunskapsläge av lean vid projektstart. Med den kunskapen påbörjades ett projekt The purpose of this work is to explore how lean can be implemented through the staff´s enhanced understanding, for increased productivity without additional resources. This was carried out through a project in a company limited to two departments. Literature and review provided an overview of the staff's knowledge level of lean. With the gained knowledge, a project was initiated focusing on t
The aim of this study is to examine the discourses on climate change in relation to certain European heat waves in Swedish print media, with the help of Anabela Carvalho’s discourse analysis, specifically formulated for media. To what extent did the media link the extreme weather events to climate change, and man-made emissions? This study also examines the role of actors and discursive strategies
Crises are inherently connected to the strengths and functions of the financial system in creating and expanding credit (Broberg and Ögren, 2019). They are as much products of the innovation and expansion which precede them as they are a cause of the realignment and adjustment that follows them. For this reason, Marx, Minsky and Kindleberger have all regarded financial instability as a fundamental
Business intelligence (BI) is all about making decisions. The purpose of many business intelligence tools is to improve these decisions by making data easy to visualize and understand. Qlik Sense is a BI tool developed by the company Qlik which allows users to visualize and explore data by filtering it (called making selections). At the time of this project Qlik Sense did not support visualization
The area of VAT constitutes an area fully harmonized within the EU, and the framework for the European VAT is established in the VAT Directive and is implemented in Sweden through the Swedish VAT Act. The European VAT is a general tax on consumption with the purpose of only taxing purchases for personal consumption. However, the European VAT cover all stages of production and distribution. To achi
Entreprenadavtal ingås ofta efter upphandling. I utförandeentreprenader betyder det att beställaren har ansvar för att projektera och tillhandahålla entreprenörer ett utförligt förfrågningsunderlag. Detta förfrågningsunderlag avgör omfattningen av kontraktsarbetena och ligger till grund för entreprenörens kalkyl. Vid upphandlingsförfarandet är det viktigt att anbuden är jämförbara. En förutsättninConstruction contracts are often entered into after a procurement process. In construction contracts, this means that the purchaser is responsible for designing and providing the contractor with detailed tender documents. The tender documents form the basis for the contractor's cost estimate and the scope of the construction work. During the procurement process, it is crucial that the submitte
Problemformulering: Det ställs alltmer skärpta krav på att förbättra miljö, arbetsmiljö, logistik och ekonomi inom byggproduktion och det krävs därmed att hitta nya metoder som tillmötesgår de nya kraven. Konfektionering har tagits upp som en metod som kan minska byggproduktionens miljöpåverkan och skapa en bättre arbetsmiljö. Om denna metod även kan användas för att effektivisera logistiken och mProblem: In the construction industry there are increasingly higher requirements to reduce the environmental impact and production costs as well as improve the work environment and construction logistics. To meet these new requirements, new production methods are needed. Studies have shown, ready-to-use construction materials can be used in order to improve the environmental impact and the work en
Denna uppsats undersökte hur psykologer och tolkar upplever samarbetet sinsemellan inom ramen för barn- och ungdomshabilitering samt hur samarbetet kan utvecklas. Utifrån en tolkande hållning i likhet med tolkande fenomenologisk ansats genomfördes en tematisk analys utifrån semistrukturerade intervjuer med fyra legitimerade psykologer och fyra auktoriserade språktolkar. Resultatet sammanfattades iThis empirical study aspired to explore how registered psychologists and authorized interpreters perceived their collaboration in the children and adolescent habilitation center, and how this collaboration could be developed. After interviewing four registered psychologists and four authorized interpreters using semi-structured interviews, a thematic analysis was performed using an interpretative
Climate change is expected to alter soil nutrient availability and microbial community functionality. Inputs of labile carbon (C) from root exudates can stimulate the decomposition of soil organic matter (SOM) in a phenomenon known as “priming”; driven by microbial demand for limiting resources. Climate-driven changes in resource availability may therefore influence soil susceptibility to priming,
This thesis analyzes how and why old toys are restored by and for adults, despite contemporary Western society's understanding of toys as signifiers of childhood exclusively. With this in mind, the intent is to answer whether childhood attachments to toys can also be observed in adults by analyzing how the restoration process of toys reaffirms emotional and social significance for all involved
Membrane fouling, particularly by soft, deformable particles, is a significant challenge in microfiltration (MF) processes, leading to reduced efficiency and increased operational costs. This thesis investigates the formation of filter cake layers by numerically simulating fluid flow through microfluidic membranes designed with random, non-overlapping cylindrical micropillar arrays. The study aims
In may of 2022 a EU law was proposed with the intent of stopping the online spread of CSAM (Child Sexual Abuse Material) by monitoring all online communication in search of child exploitation material. Since then, the proposed law has come under scrutiny due to the suggested surveillance of civilians without any need for criminal suspicion. Today the proposed law is most commonly known as Chat Con
Bildandet av beläggningar på värmeväxlarytor (fouling) är ett stort problem vid värmebehandling av mejeriprodukter och växtbaserade drycker, eftersom det leder till ökat rengöringsbehov och stopp i produktionen. Konventionell rengöring använder kemiska rengöringsmedel (syra och bas), vilket har en negativ miljöpåverkan. Ett potentiellt alternativ till detta är den mer miljövänliga enzymatiska rengFouling is a major problem during heat treatment of dairy and plant-based beverages, leading to increased cleaning demand and production downtime. Conventional cleaning methods rely on chemical detergents (acids and bases), which raise sustainability concerns. A potential cleaning option is the use of enzymes, which has a lower environmental impact. Plant-based dairy alternatives are increasing i
