In this thesis the influence of strong reflections in rooms is investigated. A strong reflection can have a negative influence on speech or music that is transmitted from the source to the receiver. Impulse responses including different strength of a reflection are modelled using a statistical model. From the impulse response, different parameters describing the strength of the reflection can be c
This paper will examine the underlying identity processes of the European Space Agency. The aim is to discover how this agency is presenting itself and why, by using narrative analysis. Narrative analysis has proven to be effective in coming close to a subject’s performed identity. Theories from corporate communications and organisational studies have inspired the portrayal of ESA as a personified
Since banks provide various forms of credit, they consequently expose the business as well as society to risks. Therefore, global banking regulations exist to ensure that banks keep enough capital for the risks they are taking. One such risk is name credit concentration risk, arising when exposures in a portfolio have a skew distribution across different counterparties. Regarding the treatment of
This thesis picks up the journey from my Bachelor’s thesis where it was concluded that current legal protection of the Intellectual Property (IP) for “computer programs” and associated components is fractured and contains gaps that provides for legal uncertainty for the author/creator/inventor. The BSc thesis’ analysis covered IP protection provided through international treaties, statutory law an
Mobility constitutes an important aspect in order to create quality of life, where a well working public transportation can decrease the level of stress and create more “flow” in the everyday life (Atkins 2009). However, not all individuals have the mobility prerequisites; for people with disabilities, the preconditions of movement are limited. The purpose of this thesis is to examine the accessi
This paper discusses the relationship between the Mouridiyya order and the Jamatou Ibadou Rahmane Association- two significant and quite different Muslim organizations in Senegal. This case is illuminated in order to help explain why supposedly opposed groups entertain peaceful relationships. The data analyzed derives from nine interviews conducted between January 2014 and March 2014, in Dakar, Se

Åtta vetenskapliga artiklar, två kvalitativa och sex kvantitativa, ligger till grund för föreliggande litteraturstudie. Resultatet belyser fyra huvudteman; Psykisk och emotionell påverkan av våldet, fy
Policy makers and national football associations often emphasize potential benefits of mega-events like the FIFA World Cup or UEFA EURO on tourism (or the economy in general), but empirical studies show no support for this. The effects on tourism, especially of the EUROs, are not well documented in the academic community and it is the purpose of this paper to provide some empirical evidence of the

The goal of credit is to aid the legal and physical persons to successfully face and thus to overcome their difficult economical situations. Due to the fact that the VAT exemption status of granting, negotiation and management of credit causes neg
This report is based on a fire safety evaluation of Häradsgårdens retirement home and presents the method during the work and the result. The report is a part of the Fire Safety Engineer program at Lund University and written by students. The main focus during the evaluation was to look at the personal safety during a fire in the building and just a small concern was taken to economic aspects. The
In Sweden, there is a great demand for construction. At the same time, construction companies must increase their profitability. This requires the development of systems for improved communication and interaction. Especially now when the industry is facing massive retirements, there is a risk that knowledge will be lost. To ensure quality the companies also need to involve their employees so they
The caste system and gender are two factors that have been affecting what education a person is able to get and what possibilities a person has in regards to the labour market in India. Scheduled Castes (SC), Scheduled Tribes (ST) and Other Backward Classes (OBC) are three groups that have been marginalised in the Indian society. The aim of this case study is to attain an understanding of how SC/S
DynahMat is an ongoing project at the Packaging Logistics department at Lund University, which aims to reduce food waste by establishing the true quality and shelf life of chilled goods through a dynamic shelf life prediction (DSLP) service. The idea behind the service is, throughout the entire supply chain, to measure temperature and microbial growth using sensors attached to the package. The inf
In June 2013 the Commission published its consultation paper “Towards more effective EU merger control” whereby the Commission was seeking to i) extend the scope of the EU merger control to the acquisition of non-controlling minority shareholdings and ii) reform the referral system. The paper proposed several options on how to successfully achieve the set objectives without creating undue burdens
I Sverige beskattas ägare till fåmansföretag enligt särskilda fåmansföretagsregler. Huvudsakligt syfte med dessa särskilda regler är att undvika en skattemässig inkomstomvandling. Eftersom delägaren i ett fåmansföretag har ett stort inflytande över företaget och dess likvida medel finns det möjligheter till att ta ut arbetsinkomst som utdelning istället för lön. Att flytta inkomst från den progres
Nighttime satellite photographs of Earth reveal the location of lighting and provide a unique and highly accurate view of human settlement, density and distribution. Nighttime lights have been shown to correlate with economic development and population worldwide. Little research has been done on the link between nighttime lights and population change over time. This link is explored here for Europ
This Master Thesis successfully explains the difference in probability of default implied by Credit Default Swaps, traded by the market, and the benchmark Moody’s EDFTM. The difference is explained by the market price of risk, related to the Girsanov kernel, allowing us to transform the risk neutral measure Q to the physical measure P. This market price of risk is modeled with a log-linear multiva
