The 2014 Swedish National infrastructure plan allocated funds to implement a “Regional Superbus concept”. The concept involves the upgrading a number of existing regional express bus services to make them function as an alternative to investing in regional rail. The Regional superbus concept is an attempt to adapt the BRT planning philosophy to the regional scale and the context of the region it s
Gas cooling is a technique used within the fire service to reduce the risks of the hot gaseous layer and create a better visibility. It is achieved by applying water into the gaseous layer. Successfully performing or implementing this technique is something that has not yet been accomplished in every brigade. This work has been focused on different parameters that affect gas cooling and is studie
Data har många användningsområden inom både forskning och industri. I detta examensarbete skapades en platform som självgående kan användas för att samla in stora mängder data från omgivningen.Everyone who has worked with research knows how rewarding experimenting and developing new algorithms can be. However in some cases, the hard part is not the invention of these algorithms, but their evaluation. To try and make that evaluation easier, this thesis focuses on the collection of data that can be used as positional ground truths using an autonomous measurement platform. This should assi
En ny underfamilj av cellulära vakter i växter Heterologt överuttryck av proteiner innebär att en gen som kodar för ett protein uttrycks i en annan värdorganism som normalt inte har den genen i sin arvsmassa. Inom biokemisk forskning är detta en viktig metod för att kunna studera proteiners struktur och funktion. Tyvärr kan uttrycket av en främmande gen medföra skador på värdorganismens celluläraHeterologous overexpression of proteins signifies that the encoding gene of a protein in one organism is expressed in another host organism that normally does not have that gene in its genome. In basic biochemical research, this is an important method for studying various protein functions such as activity and interactions in biological processes, as well as obtaining sufficient amounts to determi
The purpose of this study was to examine the thoughts and experiences of children’s investigators of the social services regarding the recent incorporation of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) into Swedish domestic law. By doing so we wished to gain a greater understanding of the practical implications of this new law. Our method was qualitative and the data collected through se
Ett ökat behov av äldreomsorg förväntas på grund av en befolkning som bara blir äldre. Svensk hälso- och sjukvård är känd för att redan vara belastad och som ett resultat strävar Sverige efter att bli bästa landet i världen på digitaliserings- och e-hälsolösningar. Examensarbetet har gjorts i samarbete med Doro Care, ett internationellt företag som arbetar med digitala lösningar som möjliggör digAn increased need for elderly care and health care is expected due to a population that is only getting older. Swedish health care is already known to be burdened. As a result, Sweden aims to become the best country in the world in using digitalisation and e-health solutions. This thesis was done in collaboration with Doro Care, an international company that offers digital solutions enabling dig
Political institutions are keen to use the best available scientific knowledge in decision-making. For environmental policy, relevant scientific evidence can be complex and extensive, so expert judgment is frequently relied upon, without clear links to the evidence itself. We propose a new transparent process for incorporating research evidence into policy decisions, involving independent synopsis

A comparative study of two different systems for evaluation. Scandinavian Journal of Psychology. As with any type of treatment the requirement for evidence based practice (EBP) has also affected art therapy (AT) when used as an interve
ABSTRACT Purpose: The purpose of this study was to explore the current factors affecting fertility preference and fertility behaviour in Shanghai among the first single-child generation who are now entering into their childbearing years. In order to gain a more clear understanding of fertility preference and fertility behaviour in Shanghai the following areas were explored in an attempt to discov
This paper presents an analysis of European and Swedish national and municipal waste prevention plans to determine their capability of preventing the generation of waste. An analysis of the stated objectives in these waste prevention plans and the measures they propose to realize them exposes six problematic features: (1) These plans ignore what drives waste generation, such as consumption, and (2
Purpose - To offer knowledge about the global development of largescale demand responsive transport systems (DRT), and to stimulate dialogue and collaboration for further innovation and improvement of these systems. Design/methodology/approach - A review of the literature shows how DRT has evolved from the first applications in the 1970s to very complex operations in the last two decades with hund

After the latest IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) report in 2018 there has been an increased concern in society on the identified climate impact of flying. This has resulted in a rise of grassroots social movements that attempt to find alternative, more environmentally friendly means of travel. This research has more closely examined two of these social movements within the tourism
Uppmärksammandet av att organisationer har ett arbetsgivarvarumärke, i kombination med en ökad efterfrågan på högkvalificerad arbetskraft, har lett till uppkomsten av ett flertal best practice-modeller och konsultbyråer som specialiserat sig på att förvalta organisationers rykten som arbetsgivare. Tidiga definitioner av det som kommit att kallas för employer branding beskriver målet med detta att The acknowledgement that organizations have an employer brand, combined with the rising demand of highly qualified workers, has led to countless best practice models and employer brand consulting agencies specializing in managing organizations’ reputation as employers. Early definitions describe employer branding as aimed at both potential and existing employees in order to attract, but also retai
Miljöpåverkan är ett ständigt återkommande ämne i samhällsdebatten. Många företag strävar efter att minimera sin miljöpåverkan, vilket kan ske genom att återanvända material i stället för att producera nya. I fallet med betongproduktion finns det flera sätt att göra den bättre för miljön. Till exempel kan rivningstegel användas som alternativ till den traditionella ballasten, som ett sätt att minsEnvironmental impact is a recurring topic in the social debate. Many companies strive to minimize their environmental impact, which can be done by reusing materials instead of producing new ones. In the case of concrete production, there are several ways to make it better for the environment. For example, brick waste can be used as an alternative to the traditional stone aggregate as a way to redu
In large corporations, customer support is a costly service, and an area of constant optimization. Solutions to increase efficiency and decrease bottlenecks are constantly needed. One such bottleneck is support tool proficiency in a customer support organization where many different tools are used, and a potential solution is to let the tool guide the user as it is being used.
