Syftet med detta examensarbete är att undersöka vilka faktorer som resenärer anser vara viktigast för en positiv upplevelse av tågresor, med särskilt fokus på punktlighet och upplevelsen av restid. Studien baseras på en enkätundersökning med 103 svarande samt en litteraturstudie inom området järnvägstrafik, kundnöjdhet och restidsvärdering. Resultatet visar tydligt att punktlighet är den mest avg
BackgroundEven when palliative care is an integrated part of the healthcare system, the quality is still substandard for many patients and often initiated too late. There is a lack of structured guidelines for identifying and caring for patients; in particular for those with early palliative care needs. A care guide can act as a compass for best practice and support the care of patients throughout
Field-based thermal infrared cameras provide surface temperature information at very high spatial and temporal resolution and could complement existing phenological camera and spectral sensor networks. Since temperature is one of the main drivers of ecosystem respiration (ER), field-based thermal cameras offer a new opportunity to model and upscale ER in unprecedented detail. We present such an ap
This study has analysed which options would be appropriate to use as additional requirements to the main requirement of primary energy number in the new Swedish building regulations. The starting point is to ensure that buildings are built with good qualitative properties in terms of the building envelope so that low energy use can be maintained throughout the life of the building despite changes
Displacement ventilation is a proven method of providing conditioned air to enclosed spaces with the aim to deliver good air quality and thermal comfort while reducing the amount of energy required to operate the system. Until now, the practical applications of displacement ventilation have been exclusive to providing ventilation and cooling to large open spaces with high ceilings. The provision o
China’s approach and response to democratization in Hong Kong have since the city’s handover back in 1997 been somewhat of a rollercoaster-esque experience. The path towards democracy has for the people of Hong Kong remained an ongoing struggle for nearly 30 years, with recent developments arguably putting an end towards any hope of future realization. This study seeks to investigate and assess Be
This conceptual thesis analyses Carlota Pérez vision of a ‘Green Global Golden Age’ that is supposed to reconcile the tension between economic growth and sustainability (Pérez, 2016b). Aiming to address the pressing issue of continued unsustainability, Pérez’ proposed solution is based on the assumption that technological innovation in the field of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT)
Development of genetically modified microorganisms such as Saccharomyces cerevisiae for use as microbial cell factories to produce fine and bulk chemicals has lately proceeded very rapidly, much thanks to new gene editing methods based on a CRISPR/Cas9 system adapted from bacteria which increases the rate of genetic engineering. However, development of methods which enable fast and simple screenin
Examensarbetets titel: Hemma bra, men borta bäst? - En kvantitativ studie om individers prestation och motivation relaterat till en ökad frekvens av hemarbete Seminariedatum: 2020-06-03 Ämne/kurs: FEKH19, Företagsekonomi: Examensarbete på kandidatnivå i Strategic Management, 15 hp Författare: Julia Anderberg, Jessica Lind och Malin Olsson Handledare: Devrim Göktepe-Hultén Nyckelord: Hemarbete
The constantly increasing awareness of protecting the environment has put electrical roads in the spotlight as an alternative solution to fossil driven means of transport. Dan Zethraeus has developed an innovative idea for a prototype electrical road which conductively supplies power to the cars whilst driving. The concept is to place a line of short rail segments in the middle of the drive lanes

We have in our thesis examined energy system for small houses for Skanska Teknik AB. The environment is a current issue in our society and buildings from the past are rarely energy effective, since many houses built during the seventies had heating based on oil or direct electricity. In new buildings it is more and more important to be energy efficient, to meet the demands from our future environm
De perspektiv av blankningslagstiftningen som kommer att lyftas fram i uppsatsen är inte enbart de nationella utan även de europeiska. Den europeiska harmoniseringen har inte uppnått så stora resultat på det skatterättsliga området, vilket beror på den starka suveräniteten som funnits historiskt när det gäller ländernas egna skattesystem. Fokus kommer i huvudsak att ligga på de skatterättsliga effThe perspectives of short-selling rules that will be highlighted in the paper are not only national but also European. The European harmonization has not achieved such great results in the tax area, which is due to the strong sovereignty that existed historically in terms of countries own tax system. The focus will mainly be on the fiscal impact of the phenomenon of short selling, but also the civ
This essay is a statistical analysis on the patients at the rheumatology clinic of Lund. We investigate whether effects of the treatment differ depending on the patient’s diagnosis, sex, age and drug. Diagnoses included in this study are rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, spondarthritis, juvenile chronic arthritis and arthritis. The drugs we investigate in this study are Mabthera inf, Cimz
This study shows that the framework used to construct the successful Euro Area Leading Indicator (ALI), developed by de Bondt and Hahn on behalf of the European Central Bank, can successfully be applied to the Swedish business cycle. The ALI type indicator constructed in this study is a weighted index of nine macroeconomic series and accurately predicts the Swedish business cycle by three months (
Background: Anterior cruciate ligament injury is a common knee injury and the treatment may be surgical and/or conservative. Different studies have shown surgical and conservative treatment, respectively, as the best intervention. Therefore it is uncertain which treatment is preferable. When searching in PubMed, no articles were found describing the thoughts and experiences of orthopedists and phy
Five previously described species of Dhatrichia Mosely, 1948 are recognized: D. inasa Mosely, 1948 from Yemen; D. bipunctata Statzner, 1977 from Zaire; D. lerabae (Gibon, Guenda & Coulibaly, 1994) comb. n. from Burkina Faso and Ghana; and D. cinyra Wells & Andersen, 1995 and D. divergenta Wells & Andersen, 1995 from Tanzania. A sixth species D. feredougoubae Gibon, 1987 from the Ivory
As road networks are becoming increasingly utilised, it is increasingly important to be able to accurately predict travel times for disseminating information among road users and to support traffic management decisions and planning. Over the past few years, a new way of making such predictions utilising the space-time autoregressive integrated moving average (STARIMA) model has been introduced. Th
Nearly 40 percent of overall energy usage in the European Union is used by buildings and 85 percent of that is for heating and cooling them[4]. This massive amount of energy is thought to be able to be lowered by introducing smarter control of the building systems. Technology to do this is continuously being developed and improved. The newest analysis system developed by Schneider Electric uses cl
Coastal erosion has increased worldwide during the last decades, mostly due to human activities. Vietnam is not spared, where many places within the country suffer from beach erosion. This report focuses on the region around Thu Bon river mouth in the central part of Vietnam. The beaches next to the river mouth are experiencing severe erosion, especially Cua Dai Beach. The beach is totally eroded
