This is an inquiry into how aspects of the present human reality came to being and thereby also an investigation into limitations and potentialities of this “present”. An important argument in this essay is that there exists a mutually affective relationship between culture and politics and that this relationship implies both possibilities and constraints. With this in mind I try to critically inv
The wind effects on high rise buildings were studied by finding and reading books, articles and studying equations. This was done to calculate the first natural frequency of high rise buildings, wind induced acceleration on high rise buildings and how the comfort criteria of acceleration performing on high rise buildings acts on human bodies living in the building. The buildings that were studied
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) was ranked as the sixth leading cause of death in 1990 and is projected to be the fourth leading cause of death worldwide by 2030 due to an increase in smoking rates and demographic changes in many countries (Mathers & Loncar 2006). To diagnose COPD there are several methods which are either imprecise or very expensive. The objective of this master

Fältarbetet för denna undersökning utfördes i den södra delen av ett 15 x 15 km stort och rundat sensvekofenniskt granitmassiv ca 10 km väster om Örnsköldsvik. Här förekommer tre olika graniter som i detta arbete kalIn the central region of the Svecofennian Province, granitoids related to different stages of the the Svecofennian orogeny have intruded metasediments (Härnö gneiss) of varying metamorphic grades. The fieldwork of this project was carried out in Ångermanland about ten km to the west of Örnsköldsvik. The mapping area is situated in the southern part of a 15×15 km rounded late Svecofennian multi-in
De stora häxprocesserna i Europa ägde rum under 1400- till 1700-talet. Framställningen avser att besvara hur den juridiska processen mot häxeriet var utformad samt förklara hur häxförföljelserna kunde uppstå. Den inkvisitoriska processen var karaktäristisk för häxprocesserna. I motsats till den ackusatoriska processen kunde domaren ta initiativ till rättsliga processer och låta makthavarnas ideoloThe witchcraft trials in Europe took place from the 15th to the 18th century. The purpose of this presentation is to clarify the model of the legal process against the witches and give an explanation of how the witch hunts started. The inquisitorial process was characteristic for the witchcraft trials. As opposed to the accusatory process, the judge could initiate the process and let the ideologie
För att kunna föreslå förbättringar i ALP: s produktionslayout insåg vi rätt tidigt att det första steget för detta arbete var att sätta sig in i företagets produkter och hur de tillverkas. Vi inledde därför vårt arbete med en kartläggning av produktionen och dess olika produktionslinjer. Med detta som grund fortsatte vi sedan med att föreslå en ny layout, samt förbättringar i delar knutna till de
Background As a part of the Service Organization’s earlier initiated and at the moment on-going project; “A more efficient Service Organization”, daily management has been identified as playing a major part. The starting-point for this has been to gain insight into how the Service Organization is actually performing and how it would be possible to measure, follow-up and visualize this performance.
Humlor är ett välkänt och omtyckt inslag i den svenska naturen. Globalt utgör de en viktig resurs som pollinatörer inom jordbruket. De senaste åren har forskare försökt kvantifiera deras och andra pollinatörers betydelse för jordbruket. Den generella kunskapen om humlor, deras mångfald, utbredning och beteende, har också ökat. Humlor är taxonomisk sett bin och 41 arter har hittills hittats i Sveri
Resource related challenges are becoming increasingly severe. The shift towards a circular economy is viewed as one prominent way to overcome the challenges. A shift towards a circular economy would partly require new business models, commonly referred to as circular business models. In order to enhance the development of circular business models, there is a need to understand how companies with c
Syftet med denna uppsats är att redogöra för gällande rätt kring utevarohandläggning i brottmål samt närmare belysa den problematik som kan uppkomma vid handläggningen. Detta sker med hjälp av den rättsdogmatiska metoden. En stor del av uppsatsen riktar in sig på frågan om rätten kan utreda saken tillfredsställande samt utföra en ändamålsenlig bevisvärdering om den tilltalade inte är närvarande viThe purpose of this essay is to examine the law of trial in the absence of the defendant in criminal cases (trial in absentia) and illuminate the complex of problems that can arise during processing. This is done by using the legal dogmatic method. A substantial part of the paper addresses the question of whether the court can investigate the case satisfactorily and carry out an appropriate evalua
The ongoing trade conflict has received much attention, and many politicians, as well as economists, wonder what the consequences will be. To shed some light on what the trade effects might be, we empirically analyse the trade effects of a very similar trade conflict. This paper examines the trade effects of the US safeguard of 2002 on Swedish steel exports. While the main focus of the analysis is
Departing from the increased interest in and beneficial characteristics of investments in commodity futures evident in the literature. This paper evaluates the existence of factors that may explain the cross-section of commodity futures through macro, equity and commodity specific factors. The models employed are estimated through the Fama-Macbeth two step approach on individual contracts as test
Besökstider skulle kunna användas för smartare kassabemanning för att minimera kötider vilket leder till en mer positiv butiksupplevelse för kunden. Det har visat sig att för en mindre butik vara möjligt att uppskatta besökstider med god tillförlitlighet. Ytterligare användningsområden för besökstider är att jämföra hur länge personer vistas i olika områden. Besökstider är en möjlighet för butiksäUsing customer visiting times stores can analyse customer behaviour and gain insights to help improve the store experience. This thesis investigates the possibility of using person re-identification to create a system that can estimate the median visiting time. Neural networks were used to analyse images of persons from two different views. Images depicting the same person were matched together an
An emerging tool within public relations is the use of bloggers as spokespersons because of their ability to act as influencers. This study investigates how fashion bloggers present products and services they receive from companies in their blogs.

Under de senaste åren har ett antal fall av hets till självmord på internet och sociala medier uppmärksammats såväl nationellt som internationellt.

In spring 2018, media reported on a Swedish case where a policeman gave a young woman instructions through text messages about how to best commit suicide. Since suicide and suicide attempts are not criminalized, the rules of complicity are not appl
The aim of this paper is to establish and implement a framework for the systematic interpretation of insurance contracts. Specifically, this paper will try and establish a uniform means of interpreting an insurance contract, and identify and assess the negative and positive aspects associated with the adoption of such a system. Furthermore, this paper looks to investigate whether or not the interp
Bluvisions IoT-system har varit huvudfokus under utredningen av om IoT(Internet of Things) är lönsamt att implementera på framtidens Valmetmaskiner. Från början så skulle projektet avgränsas till pressning, kräppning och upprullning men under examensarbetets start fick Valmet svårt att hitta orsaken till varför en ny komponent hade havererat. Havereringen tros ha haft ett samband med höga vibratioBluvision’s IoT-system has been the focus during the investigation if IoT (internet of things) is something that can be implemented on future Valmet machines. From the beginning the bachelor thesis was restricted to press, creping and turn-up. During the initial phase of the bachelor theses start Valmet had problem finding out why a new component had failed. Therefore, it was more valuable for Val
