Intresset för att bygga fler och högre trähus i Sverige har senaste tiden ökat bland annat då trä är ett betydligt mer miljövänligt alternativ att bygga med än stål och betong. Stomsystem i trä har dock ingen naturlig sammanhållning likt en platsgjuten betongstomme och därför måste anslutningarna i en trästomme hanteras explicit. RISE (Research Institutes of Sweden) driver en konceptstudie om högaThe interest in building more and higher timber buildings in Sweden has recently increased, for example, because wood is a much more environmentally friendly alternative to construct with then steel and concrete. Frame system in wood has no natural cohesion like a cast concrete frame and therefore the connection in a wooden frame must be managed explicitly. RISE (Research Institutes of Sweden) run

Abonnentväxlar, eller private branch exchanges, har använts av företag för att nå ut till kunder i över 40 år. Över tid har systemen utvecklats från stora manuella växlar till molnbaserade internetlösningar.

Purpose: The purpose of the study is to explore the phenomenon of brand hostage, with the aim to develop a framework and a definition for a deeper understanding of its modus operandi. Relevance: Over the past two decades, disruptive and successful NGO campaigns have increasingly targeted corporations, which makes the topic a major concern for managers. Nevertheless, both from an academic and prac

Secondary organic aerosol (SOA) plays a significant role in climate change by altering the global atmospheric radiation budget. Biogenic volatile organic compounds (BVOCs) are major sources for the formation of SOA. Their relationship is critical to understand the continental biosphere-aerosol-cloud-climate (COBACC) feedback mechanism but receives less attention in previous studies. In this study,

Background: Volvo Cars, an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) in the automotive industry expressed an interest in potentially expand the criteria used when selecting suppliers. This in an industry with a complex supply where suppliers are getting increased power. Additionally, intangible criteria are getting more attention than before in the supplier selection process. One criterion addressing

Adverbial verbs and interrogative verbs are two relatively rare and underexplored linguistic phenomena that are investigated in this typological study. Adverbial verbs are verbal constituents that possess the morphosyntactic properties of verbs but that encode manner and temporal information, instead of referring to states or events as verbs prototypically do. Interrogative verbs possess the morph

Products of Axis Communications, mostly premium class cameras and wall mounts, have previously been installed on trusses. However, Axis has not provided any means of installation so it has been up to the installers to create their own solutions. This report describes the research and development of Axis first truss mount. The aim of the master thesis was to both study the environment of the produ

There is a non-negligible risk that a quantum computer capable of breaking most modern public key encryption will be invented within the next couple of decades. All data that have to stay secret for more than 10-20 years should therefore be encrypted using quantum-resistant algorithms. There are different ways of approaching the problem of quantum security and the currently existing quantum-resist

Seasonal hydrological forecasts of future streamflow volumes can provide water resources managers with valuable information to improve long-term water resources planning and water use efficiency. The latest generation of coupled ocean-atmosphere general circulation models provides an opportunity for the prediction of hydroclimatic variables (e.g. precipitation, streamflow; soil moisture) at long l

Kroniska sjukdomar är den största orsaken till funktionsnedsättning och död, och även den största kostnaden för sjukvården. Ett sätt att minska trycket på sjukvården och samtidigt höja livskvalitén för patienter som lider av kroniska sjukdomar, är genom digitalisering av sjukvården.

Framtagning av skyfallsplaner har blivit en allt vanligare del i kommuners arbete med klimatanpassning. För att klarlägga konsekvenserna av ett skyfall kan man göra en ytavrinningsmodell. Den är även värdefull för att de ekonomiska insatser som svenska kommuner och myndigheter lägger på översvämningsåtgärder ska användas på framgångsrika lösningar. En ytavrinningsmodell gör det möjligt att beräkna

Detta examensarbete har gjorts I samarbete med Tylö AB, ett bastuföretag med säte i Halmstad. De hade behov av att utreda möjligheten att använda universella, gärna likadana, gångjärn på alla sina bastudörrar i glas. Idag används flera olika typer av gångjärn beroende på var dörren ska monteras och alla olika gångjärn kräver olika typer av bearbetning på glasdörren för att kunna monteras.

Our solution makes it possible to replace the three hinges currently used at Tylö AB with a single one and use it on all of the 42 door types at Tylö. This master thesis was performed in collaboration with the Swedish sauna company Tylö AB. They were in need of a new type of universal hinge for their sauna glass doors. Today, they u

Boendet har en stark koppling till äldres livskvalitet. Utformningen av äldres boendemiljö är viktig då de spenderar mycket tid i och i nära anslutning till boendet. Boendemiljön påverkar hur trygg den boende känner sig där exempelvis hala golv eller dålig belysning kan skapa en känsla av otrygghet. Sveriges befolkning ökar och antalet invånare över 65 väntas öka från 1,9 miljoner 2014 till 3 milThe living environment has a strong connection with elderly's quality of life. The design of the elderly housing environment is important as they spend a lot of time in and near their home. The housing environment affects how safe the residents feel, for example slippery floors or poor lighting can create an insecurity. Sweden's population is increasing and the population of those over 65

Sweden’s substantial building stock from the million programs is in need of renovations. These residential buildings were built without major attention to energy demand or architectural aesthetics. Until now, property owners have hesitated to carry out energy renovations due to the investment cost.
