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

Syftet med den här uppsatsen är att undersöka definitonen av en icke-internationell väpnad konflikt. Konflikten i Libyen respektive Syrien kommer att användas som exempel på hur olika detta kan tolkas. Definitonen av en konflikt är av stor betydelse för vilka regler som ska appliceras på den och för straffansvar. IIVK regleras i internationell humanitär rättsliga (IHR) konventioner som GenèvekonveThe purpose of this paper is to examine what constitutes a non-international armed conflict (NIAC), using the conflicts in Libya respectively Syria as examples of how different this can be interpreted. This definition is of great importance when it comes to what rules to apply and criminal accountability. NIACs are regulated in international humanitarian law (IHL) conventions such as the Geneva Co
Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning Strukturbioinformatik och datorgrafik Proteiner bygger upp våra muskler, hud, hår m.m. och fungerar som katalysatorer (enzymer) för reaktioner som behövs för livet. Våra gener kodar för proteiner som utför funktioner i kroppen. Bioinformatik handlar om att studera det genetiska materialet hos människor och andra organismer. Strukturbioinformatik riktar in sig Abstract This Master Thesis explores a variety of approaches to protein structure comparision : CLICK, BetaSuperPoser, MAMMOTH, Minkowski Sum Boundary Calculation, 3DSurfer / Zernike Descriptors, Spherical Harmonics, D2 Shape (distance histogram) and ProBiS. The methods are categorized according to how they function and the meaning of their output parameters, in particular RMSD, is discussed. We
To produce food that ends up being thrown away is a big unnecessary climate impact which is easily avoided by just treating the product in a different way. There are many reasons why food waste appears, it could be that the “best before” date has expired, the product has been damaged or it is something wrong with it from the beginning.

In recent years the railway has received a lot of negative publicity thanks to the large amount of delay hours that occurs during winter conditions and especially at snowfall. In our railway network, the points are the most targeted problem components were snow and ice cause the most problems. Due to its moving parts and low tolerances for disorder, a few millimeters of gap between the rails is en
Titanium dioxide nanoparticles are synthesised in aerosol phase using the Liquid Flame Spray method. The particles are deposited in-situ on paperboard, glass and metal surfaces. According to literature, titanium dioxide is supposed to be hydrophilic. However, hydrophobic behaviour is observed on paperboard substrates but not on metal or glass substrates. Here, the water contact angle behaviour of
According to our study, based on interviews with households in a residential area in Sweden, uncertainty is a cultural barrier to improved recycling. Four causes of uncertainty are identified. Firstly, professional categories not matching cultural categories—people easily discriminate between certain categories (e.g., materials such as plastic and paper) but not between others (e.g., packaging and
Popular Abstract in Swedish Standard-12-avlednings-EKG är fortfarande ett av de viktigaste och vanligaste redskapen för att diagnostisera hjärtsjukdom trots att ett flertal olika undersökningstekniker har utvecklats under åren.
