In times of climate change, companies face extreme pressure from external stakeholders to engage in environmental sustainability activities. Especially companies of industries that significantly contribute to the global carbon emissions are expected to change their behaviour. There, the road freight transportation business is known for its particularly heavy impact. Being forced to adapt to change

Under projektets gång användes gen-editeringsmetoden CRISPR/Cas9 för att förhindra uttrycket av en gen som är associerad med en familjär form av ALS i två stamcellslinjer som hade blivit differentierade till hjärnceller. Genom genuttrycksanalys visades att CRISPR/Cas9 hade lyckats orsaka en fyrfaldig minskning av SOD1-uttryck i båda cellinjer. Amyotrofisk lateralskleros, förkortat ALS är en neuromAmyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neuromuscular disease characterized by the degeneration and death of both upper and lower motor neurons for which there is no cure currently available. The degeneration of motor neurons leads to the inability to carry out voluntary movement and death usually occurs 3-5 years after disease onset by respiratory failure. The most common cause of familial ALS i

The master thesis was carried out for Sandvik SRP in cooperation with the division of Production and Materials Engineering at the Faculty of Engineering at Lund University. This thesis is part of a larger research project with the title ”Blyfria kopparlegeringar” funded by Vinnova within SIO Produktion 2030. Lead-free bearing-materials, which could be used to replace the current bear-ing-material

The Danish social workers in the Job Centers holds the key to shaping the public policy, at the frontline. The way they choose to facilitate their tasks practicing digital tools impacts the client’s security and how the profession is being shaped. Policies reforms regarding digital tools aim at providing efficiency for the work processes and actively ensure the clients' legal rights. Polices a

Stock binds capital and this should be of highest concern for companies to minimize. Therefore it is important to design their reorder points in such way that service levels are met while keeping as low capital as possible. How well do the most common dimensioning methods perform with respect to the capital in safety stock and how the parameter is set in the best-of-breed methods to meet a given s

Currently sedimentation is one of the major issues to deal with, for professionals, as it causes continuous loss of storage and hinder the intended purposes of a dam. More research and case-specific studies are required to understand the behavior of sediment transport mechanism in order to propose remedial measures. Sakuma dam on Tenryu River in Japan is one of the largest dams in Japan and it is

Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: En sedimentsekvens från sjön Svartkälstjärn i Västerbotten provtogs för pollen- och sporanalys samt kolpartikelanalys. Sedimentens ålder bestämdes med 14C-dateringar och spår av radioisotopen 137Cs, som indikerar modern tid då de återspeglar provsprängningarna av kärnvapen under senare delen av 1900-talet. Dateringarna visar att sedimentationen i sjön började föA 2.1-m sediment sequence retrieved from Lake Svartkälstjärn, located at 260 m a.s.l. in the province of Västerbotten, Sweden, was subsampled for pollen and spore analysis, charcoal analysis, and influx calculations. The aim was to establish the local environmental development during the Holocene with focus on forest composition, fire frequency, soil erosion, aquatic production, and human impact.

Greater Mekong Subregion programmet är ett flera miljarder dollars utvecklingsprojekt som inleddes med stöd av den asiatiska utvecklingsbanken (ADB) 1992. Det sammanför sex stater i Mekongs avrinningsområde med ett gemensamt mål för tillväxt och välstånd genom ekonomiskt samarbete. Utvecklingen av ekonomiska korridorer är ett huvudinitiativ för främjandet av transport och handel (TTF) inom GMS proThe Greater Mekong Subregion Program is a multi-billion dollar development project, launched with the assistance of the Asian Development Bank (ADB) in 1992. It brings together 6 states of the Mekong river basin with a common goal of growth and prosperity through economic co-operation. The development of economic corridors is a major trade and transport facilitation (TTF) initiative under the GMS

This study constitutes a preliminary survey within the project "Lake and groundwater paleohydrology of the Vomb plain, southern Sweden, for quantitative paleoclimatic calibration". The aim of the study is to describe the Holocene sediment stratigraphy of the former lakes Fönesjön and Kalvsjön (Kalvs mosse), and furthermore to describe and date stratgraphical indications of climatically c

The characterization of the incident photon beam is usually divided into its dependence on collimator setting (head-scatter factor) and off-axis position (primary off-axis ratio). These parameters are normally measured "in air" with a build-up cap, thick enough to generate full dose build-up at the depth of dose maximum. In order to prevent any influence from contaminating electrons, it
