Purpose Intensity modulation of radiation is one of several important conditions to evaluate for full understanding of how cells involved in the bystander effect influence each other when cells are exposed to radiation at low and high dose rates. The aim of this study was to develop and apply a useful and practical dosimetric method for measurement of the absorbed dose to cell cultures exposed to
Unlike other environmental threats, the loss of biodiversity is irreversible and the current and rapid loss of species is alarming. Several authors agree the state-owned protected areas are not sufficient to lessen biodiversity loss which is accentuated because most of the biodiversity is on private land. In this thesis, I study private conservation’s role as a tool for biodiversity conservation a
Tidigare forskning har visat att dagens akutsjukvård inte är anpassad för den äldre patienten, då äldre patienter ofta uppvisar diffusa och svårdefinierbara symtom, dessutom innebär det oftast ett lidande att söka vård eller att vara patient. Syftet med studien var att belysa sjuksköterskors möjligheter och hinder för lindrande av lidande för den äldre patienten med ospecifika symtom på akutmottag
In 2015, media reported on new allegations of sexual exploitation and abuse committed by UN peacekeepers against civilians. This was not the first time such allegations were made. Although a number of measures have been taken at the UN level to combat these crimes, the problem persists. The majority of the personnel in UN peacekeeping operations are members of national military contingents, and
Kvinnors rätt till frihet från könsbaserat våld är en del av kvinnors mänskliga rättigheter. Trots att det under de senaste årtiondena vidtagits åtgärder i svensk lagstiftning för att uppmärksamma att särskilt kvinnor riskerar att utsättas för våld, återstår dock mycket arbete för att helt utrota könsbaserat våld och uppnå full jämställdhet mellan könen. Migrerande kvinnor som beviljas uppehållsti
Bakgrund: Användning av olika handelskanaler vid köp av ett klädesplagg har ökat de senaste åren. Företag anpassar sig mer efter konsumenters växande behov av tillgänglighet och flexibilitet. Köpprocessen, från behovsupptäckt till köpbeslut, utförs bland annat i fysisk butik, online på bärbara och stationära datorer eller via mobila enheter. Konsumenter har numera blivit vana att oberoende av kontBackground: The use of different purchasing channels when looking for a piece of clothing has increased in recent years. Companies adapt to a greater extent to consumers’ growing need for accessibility and flexibility. The purchase process, from discovering needs to the decision of purchase, could be performed through physical store, online on a laptop and desktop computer, or through a mobile dev
Problem description: The importance of the warehouse in the supply chain network is increasing and the overall efficiency of a supply chain is to a large extent determined in the warehouses. It is acknowledged that warehouse design is a complex task mainly due to the many relationships to other functions within the company. The complexity is further enhanced by many activities and parallel process
The reality of climate change and the substantial impact it can have on our environment and social systems in the future is globally recognized. Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) have acknowledged that global warming will lead to higher temperature and less precipitation and that it will have an effect on food safety, especially in developing countries. The aim of this study is to i
Cross-border integration between Greece, Turkey and Bulgaria has been recently dominated by traditional perception of political diplomacy that overrides the considerations for economic cooperation. This project suggests that more in-depth case analysis of the Evros-Maritza-Meric Euroregion will elucidate the evolution of this concept. The existence of long-term barriers in the cross-border region
Key words: Corporate environmentalism, ecologic-economic decision-making, CSR worldviews Purpose: To explore environmental decision-aming processes at managers at Skanska, also with regard to enviornmental decison-making conceptualizations in theory. Method: The research of the thesis is based on a qualitative approach through the use of semi-structured and open interviews. Furthermore an interpre
The aim of this thesis is to present a proposal for an evolved SQAD (Safety/Quality Assurance and Demonstration)-methodology. SQAD is a Safety Case-based methodology with the main purpose of supplying an effective tool for organizing and demonstrating system safety. Just as Safety Case, SQAD is designed to be a document that proves series of claims with the purpose to declare a system safe. This t
The aim of this study was to highlight preschool teacher´s thoughts about their mandatory reporting duty, in relation to their own actions and the social service. Several studies show that there is a difference between how many children that is suspected maltreated and how many children are reported to social service. I conducted interviews with five preschool teachers who are employed at municipa
Integration programs are important and at the same time controversial parts of an immigration policy. This paper contributes to this debate by evaluating the effectiveness of German language trainings for immigrants with respect to their labor market performance. To allow for possible sample selection bias, the propensity score matching method is applied. This method matches treated and control pe
In the yearly report from the Swedish governmental agency The Ombudsman for Children, Bakom fasaden (2011), children and adolescents placed under government custody in so called HVB-homes (homes for treatment and living) gives voice to the fact that they are dissatisfied that opportunities to use the Internet are restricted. At the same time, Sweden is considered one of the countries in the world
"The technology for planning and delivering radiotherapy has in the last decade undergone some revolutionary development and it is now possible to perform complex treatments such as stereotactic treatments and treatments using dynamic wedges, multileaf collimator and intensity modulation. The more precise limits surrounding the PTV have made it of utmost interest to be able to verify calculat
Sociala medier har fått en allt större del i platsmarknadsföringen och tidigare forskning har i stor utsträckning fokuserat på ett producentperspektiv varför uppsatsen ämnar undersöka området ur ett mottagarperspektiv. Syftet är att undersöka hur information på sociala medier påverkar den imageskapande processen för en plats och genom detta utreda hur tidigare teorier förändras. Uppsatsen utgår fr
The choice of light source is important for eco-efficient lighting. To assess the echoeffectiveness, it is essential to clarify how much and what kind of light you need, for each specific situation. To analyze this it is crucial to understand the need for different wavelengths. The Plasma lamp has a continuous spectrum and gives a relatively high proportion of photons with high energy. In many cri
Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: Platåleror utgör ett markant inslag i det inre backlandskapet söder om Romeleåsen i Skåne. De är kvadratkilometer stora, cirkulära lerområden, med en svagt undulerande yta som täcker landskapets högsta kullformer. Runt platålerorna ligger oftast s k kantryggar som huvudsakligen består av grus och sand. I snart hundra år har bildningsmiljön för platålerorna och kPlateau-clays are significant features in the hummocky moraine area south of Romeleåsen ridge, Skåne, southern Sweden. The plateau clays are smoothly undulating circular areas of glaciolacustrine clay, which drape the highest hummocks in the landscape. Rim ridges often surround the plateau-clays. During the last hundred years the formation of these plateau clays has been studied and discussed. In
Genom att studera några av Sveriges just nu största intresseorganisationer och forskarnätverk för främjande av samhällsentreprenörskap, vill författarna skapa en nulägesanalys av området i Sverige - samt utmaningar att beakta för områdets framtida utveckling. Då uppsatsen har ett beskrivande syfte kring ett ämne som till vissa delar är outforskat i en svensk kontext, har en kombination av deskripThrough the study of some of Sweden´s at present largest associations and networks for the support of social entrepreneurship, the authors seek to establish a situation analysis over the Swedish field – as well as challenges to be considered for the future development of the field. While this paper aims at a descriptive purpose on a partly unexplored topic in a Swedish context, a combination of a
