This thesis reconnoiters the involvement of immigrants as owners, producers and organizers of multiethnic business ventures that appeal outside visitors, so called ethnic tourist-based entrepreneurship. The study is informed by the principles underlying an interpretive case study conducted in Rosengård, Malmö, and the data were collected through semi-structured interviews complemented by participa
This report analyses the need of sprinkler protection above suspended ceilings with regard to the fire classification of cables. The question formulation for this report is which ignition hazards can lead to a fire in cable ladders above suspended ceilings as well as how the fire classification of cables effect the need of sprinkler protection above suspended ceilings. The main conclusions that h
An embedded system’s software is often the backbone for a successful prod- uct. To make the system stand out from the other competitors on the mar- ket, your system must be adaptive and ready for quick updates. However, one may never truly know where your system is going to be used and how difficult it can be to access and update it. Here we show a solution that securely updates a system based upo
The activated sludge process has existed for over a century and despite its age the development of new theories, methods and technologies is ongoing. Despite huge technological breakthroughs in the last decades the activated sludge process is still a very energy demanding process however, and it is possible to make significant energy savings by optimizing the aeration strategy of an activated slud
The steel company SSAB in Borlänge has five plate heat exchangers that they use to cool the process water. The water is used to cool the steel after hot rolling. The exchangers need to be cleaned sometimes because of fouling, that reduces the cooling efficiency. This results in higher energy use and higher costs in the end. The goal of this paper is to create a model of a plate heat exchanger to m
Water is necessary for all life and one of the most important natural resources. The water resources problems were the reason why the project Development of the Altiplano area in Bolivia: a collaboration between Lund University (Sweden) and San Andres University in La Paz (Bolivia) was started. In the project PhD students are investigating the groundwater aquifer Challapampa that supplies the city
When live theatre is broadcast in real time at cinemas around the world, there is a gap in the current terminology. ’Mediatised live’ is a new expression, established in this thesis, to name the media form which has revolutionised the way of experiencing live theatre by broadcasting theatre live to venues around the world. By asking the question ‘Is the need for liveness dying?’ this thesis invest
Studiens bakgrund baseras på den snedfördelade representationen av könen vid svenska sjuksköterskeutbildningar. Könssegregationen vid utbildningarna ger en direkt effekt på hur fördelningen mellan könen blir på arbetsplatserna. Denna studie syftar till att undersöka hur universiteten använder sina hemsidor i syfte att skapa en mer jämställd studentkår med hjälp av kommunikations- och identifieringThis study is based on the gender gap in the swedish nursing programs which gives a direct effect of the gender gap at the workplaces. This study examines how universities use their websites along side with communication and identification methods to make their student body more gender-equal in traditionally genderd occupations. If they do, does it have an impact on the actual student body? Four o
Background & purpose Emulsions are droplets of one immiscible fluid that is encircled by another immiscible fluid, the formation of an emulsion requires energy applied to a certain volume, two immiscible fluids and an emulsifying agent. The excess of energy comes from high shear forces from the mixing blades which rotate at high speed. It is desired to know what fluid dynamics, in terms turbul
The signal crayfish (Pacifastacus leniusculus) is of great economic and social value in Sweden. Therefore it is of great importance that knowledge and experience is obtained and applied when creating a sustainable fishing industry. My study shows that the fecundity of the female crayfish is determined by her size, a larger female crayfish gives more offspring than a smaller one. In practice, most
With an increase in the number of simulations and complexity the need for compu-tational power is ever increasing. One way to meet this demand is to utilize parallelcomputing, where multiple processors work together on one problem. Parallel com-puting has been employed in conjunction with a topology optimizer for maximizingplastic work.
I svensk rätt gäller som utgångpunkt att medicinska och psykiatriska åtgärder inte får ges utan att patienten har samtyckt till dem. Undantag från denna huvudregel finns, till exempel när tvångsvård ges med stöd av lagen om psykiatrisk tvångsvård (LPT). En utgångspunkt är dock att patienter inom svensk sjukvård ges självbestämmanderätt. I vilken grad minderåriga patienter ska erkännas självbestämIn Swedish law, an important main rule is that medical and psychiatric measures cannot be given without consent from the patient. There are exceptions from this rule, f.ex. when treatment is given involuntary under the Act on Compulsory Psychiatric Care (LPT). But as a main rule, patients in Swedish health care have the right to self-determination. To which degree children shall be given the righ
The Master Thesis was set to study the possibility to measure the rheological properties of bitumen-filler mastic with RVB (Rotational Viscometer type Brookfield) and DSR (Dy-namic Shear Rheometer). This was carried out with an initial study, with promising results, from the RVB. It is known that filler has a stiffening effect when mixed with bitumen (FAS Method 253-02) and this was also confirmed
I dagens arkitektur och konstruktion ökar ständigt efterfrågan på slanka och lätta strukturer. Möjligheten att använda stål i smala och starka byggelement skapar nya sätt för oss att konstruera våra byggnader och deras komponenter. Det ökade användandet av slanka stålstrukturer leder till nya och oväntade problem i bruksstadiet, som t.ex. vibrationer och buller. De här dynamiska svårigheterna utmaIn today’s architecture and construction there is an increasing demand for slender and lightweight structures. The possibility to use steel in slender and strong construction elements creates new ways of designing our buildings and their components. The increased use of slender steel structures leads to new and unexpected serviceability problems in structures, such as vibrations and noise. These d
Vikten av ett rikt föreningsliv är stor och kanske avgörande för många ungdomars positiva utveckling. För att undvika kriminella gäng, droger och annan brottslig aktivitet bör vi i vuxenvärlden utan att tvinga ungdomarna erbjuda alternativ till dessa avvikande beteenden. I intervjuer med föreningar och organisationer knuta till idrottande ungdomar framkommer det att ungdomsidrotten tappar medlemma
Autentisk kommunikation- en kvalitativ studie om fem modeföretags strategiska varumärkesarbete Forskningsfältet strategisk kommunikation och digitala medier har legat till grund för denna studie. Studien ämnar öka förståelsen för hur nystartade företag i modebranschen arbetar strategiskt med kommunikation för att stärka sitt varumärke. Studien är utförd genom ett sändarperspektiv för att undersökaAuthentic communication- a qualitative study about the strategic brand communication work of five fashion companies The combined research fields; strategic communication and digital media combined make up the foundation for this study. This study intends to increase understanding of how newly established companies within the fashion industry are working with strategic communication to build and fu
I den akuta vårdkedjan från prehospital- till intensivvård finns en tydlig brist på kompetenskrav inom just akutsjukvård. I dagsläget bemannas främst akutmottagningar av grundutbildade sjuksköterskor och det finns en efterfrågan av specialistkompetens inom området. Specialistsjuksköterskeprogrammet med inriktning mot akutsjukvård ger en yrkes- och magisterexamen inom omvårdnad sedan år 2013 och är
