Sveriges regering satte 2011 upp mål om att bli bäst på att utnyttja digitaliseringens möjligheter. Digitaliseringen av bygglovsprocessen har trots det gått långsamt. Bygglovsprocessen idag (2018) är en långsam, dyr och ineffektiv process. Möjligheten att söka bygglov med e-legitimation finns endast hos 30 procent av kommunerna och 60 procent har någon slags e-tjänst ansökan. Ansökningarna innebärThe Swedish government set up a goal in 2011 of making the best use of digitization opportunities. The digitization of the building permit process has, however, been slow. The process of building permits is today (2018) a slow, expensive and inefficient process. The possibilities to apply for building permits with e-credentials is only available in 30 percent of municipalities and 60 percent have

Datorsimuleringar blir ett allt viktigare verktyg för att förstå, utveckla och effektivisera alla sorters processer och produkter i vårt samhälle. Det är ofta svårt att exakt efterlikna verkligheten, och för att göra simuleringarna möjliga används ofta modeller som förenklar verkligheten.In this master thesis computational fluid dynamic simulations of two plate heat exchanger channels have been performed in Ansys CFX. The full geometry of the channels has not been included, the channels were modeled with a flat geometry instead of a corrugated pattern. To account for the effect of the corrugation on the pressure drop, one-time pressure losses and momentum sources were added in the

Collimated Transmission Spectroscopy (CTS) is a technique that is commonly used to study the optical absorption of different media. In this work CTS was used to measure the absorbance of pure raspberry juice in order to investigate how well the fruit content may be determined in a commercially available raspberry fruit drink. Another method, RGB colorimetry, which is a much more available techniqu

This Bachelor’s thesis examines how masculinity is enacted in three different advertising campaigns from the Dutch menswear brand Suitsupply. The material consists of six photos, which are analyzed using visual semiotic analysis based on Barthes’ theories. To categorize the masculinity, theories from Connell, Halberstam and Nordberg are used. Ethnicity, poses, gaze, milieus and class are contribut

This thesis develops a simplified financial network model for an interbank lending system which is then analyzed in terms of contagion when exposed to external liquidity shocks. The aim is to understand how individual institutions and the network structure affect the shock propagation and finding factors that increase respectively decrease the systemic risk of the network. The network structures a

Bakgrund: De finansiella marknaderna har genomgått en enorm utveckling under de senaste tjugo åren och är numera involverade i att skapa nya finansiella instrument. Idag anses organisationer behöva ta ett ansvar för hur de påverkar samhället såväl ur ett ekonomiskt-, miljömässigt och socialt perspektiv. Gröna obligationer är en marknad som har växt kraftigt och man kan undra vad är det för faktore

The number of international students in higher education is steadily increasing, so their experiences in the new environment is a topic gaining more and more interest from academics (Wu & Hammond, 2011). The current research suggests a model for determining international students’ happiness. The determining factors in the hypothesized model are university satisfaction, residential satisfaction

The purpose of this thesis is to show how the Swedish market reacts to the appointment of a new female board member and whether this has a negative or positive affect on the share price in the short term. The theoretical framework complying of the efficient market hypothesis and behavioral finance sets the basis for the hypotheses and analysis. By using data from 120 observations from publicly tra

Build more, build better, and build faster are concepts that more and more people become aware of. Can Construction Management (CM) achieve the right price and quality in a time and cost-effective way? Construction Management is a form of a project delivery method that may occur under different types of construction contracts. The purpose of this survey is to identify the strengths and weaknesses

A goal of entrepreneurship is to foster innovation through the creation of sustainable, scalable firms through a successful commercialization of their value proposal. Surprisingly there is little research on the key role sales and hence sales knowledge of the founder plays in the survival of an entrepreneurial venture. The purpose of this study is twofold. First, we aim to contribute to the wider

Introduction The fermented tea drink kombucha has gained large popularity over the past years. It has been praised for its nutritional content, organic acids and living community of beneficial bacteria. Multiple studies have been conducted on the effect of the nutrients and organic compounds on the body, but none on the effect of the microbial community on the human gut microbiota. That is thus th

In 1938, Pearl S. Buck was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature, thanks to her second book The Good Earth about a Chinese farmer. Blistering criticism came from the American cultural elite that claimed her style of writing did not reach the Nobel Prize standard. Buck responded by saying that her style of writing was influenced by the Chinese novel rather than the Western novel. This study will co

Today, the global marketplace enable supply chains to be spread out and linked across the world, thus increasing the nodes and parties involved. This combined with customers expecting the same or increased product availability has increased the need of an agile and robust supply chain. In order to achieve this, it is of vital importance for companies to be aware of and know how to work with their

The industry today strives for the development of new materials and production methods to reduce CO2 emissions and production cost with lighter materials and more effective manufacturing processes. Scientists and engineers work with different methods and models to ensure the demands for new technology. The aim of this thesis is to experimentally measure the mechanical properties of two titanium al
