I den här uppsatsen studeras samspelet mellan dikt och samhälle i Norrlandslitteratur, specifikt i romanen Jag for ner till bror och dess paratexter. Metoden är en kvalitativ innehållsanalys där textanalysen av romanen har delats upp i kategorier av specifik relevans för Norrlandsskildringar och speglar det teoretiska underlaget. Inriktningen för uppsatsen, det litteratursociologiska perspektivet,

Sedan korslimmat trä (KL-trä) utvecklades i centrala Europa för cirka 30 år sedan har dess användande inom byggnadssektorn ökat kraftigt. Dess många fördelar, som till exempel den snabba tillverkningen och monteringen, hållbarheten ur ett miljöperspektiv, samt goda bärförmåga i både längs- och tvärriktningen, är anledningar till detta. För att förbättra möjligheterna till effektivt materialutnyttjThis project concerns an analysis of a hitherto untested method for determining the modulus of elasticity (MoE) and shear modulus parallel to grain, as well as the rolling shear modulus of cross laminated timber (CLT) through 3-point bending tests. A review of analytical models and methods is included, followed by an evaluation of the effect of the annual ring orientation and shear stress distribu

Havsnivåhöjning till följd av klimatförändringar ökar risken för översvämningar vid kusten och nödvändiggör konstruktionen av skyddsvallar och andra kustskyddsåtgärder. Vegetation vid kusten kan vara en del i dessa skyddsåtgärder genom att reducera våghöjden på de inkommande vågorna. Detta examensarbete kvantifierar vågdämpningen från vegetation vid Bunkeflo strandängar (Malmö) med hjälp av en empFuture sea level rise due to climate change increases the risk of coastal flooding and thus necessitates the building of dikes and other protective structures. Coastal vegetation can reduce the impact of waves on such structures by dissipating wave energy and hence reduce incoming wave heights. This thesis attempts to quantify the wave damping by vegetation at Bunkeflostrand (southern Sweden), by

Syfte: Syftet med denna studie är att skapa en djupare förståelse för hur unga svenskar använder mobiltelefonen när de handlar i den fysiska modebutiken och hur detta påverkar konsumentens beteende. Teori: Arbetet utgår från en traditionell beskrivning av köpprocessen, men lägger fokus på delarna informationssökning och alternativutvärderingen. Denna modell fördjupas genom tidigare forskning om

Action recognition is a task in computer vision of inferring an action performed by a subject given an image or video. In this thesis we looked at how the performance of an action recognition network changed when introduced to new angles and how incorporating that data in the training affects this performance. A state-of-the-art skeleton extraction network HRNet\_w48+DARK was used together with a

Syfte: Syftet med uppsatsen är att undersöka hur chefer upplever generation Z och vilka drag de tillskriver de anställda utifrån generationstillhörighet. Vidare att förstå hur ledarna anser att de bör anpassa sitt ledarskap till följd av de tillskrivna dragen och på så sätt bidra till teorin om implicita följarskapsteorier. Metod: För att uppnå studiens syfte och besvara frågeställningen har en sPurpose: The aim of this study is to analyze how managers perceive generation Z and what attributes they ascribe to the employees based on generational belonging. Furthermore, what adaptations of their leadership they claim to make as consequence to the ascribed characteristics. In this way, we also make a contribution to implicit followership theories. Methodology: In order to achieve the purpos

På senare tid har det påträffats olika typer av skador på fibercementskivor monterade i fasader som har varit svåra att härleda till en specifik orsak. Den främsta skadan som uppkommit är sprickbildning men det har även påträffats andra defekter så som utbuktande skivor. Dessa skador har i flera fall härletts till handhavandefel vid montage men fukt-och temperaturbetingade rörelser tros även vara Recently, various types of damages have been found on fibre cement boards mounted in facades which have been difficult to trace to a specific cause. The main damage that has occurred is cracking but other defects have also been found, such as bulging boards. These damages have in several cases been attributed to handling errors during assembly, but moisture and temperature-related movements are al

John Lucas and Roger Penrose attempted to refute Computationalism, the theory that the human mind is a computational system. They did so by utilizing meta-mathematical proofs by Kurt Gödel. I will explore various objections made against the attempt and discover that it relies on two uncertain premises – human consistency and proof for the consistency of a formal system. Revisions of the argument a

Deliver us from evil! : A study of the use of the uncatalogued small print and ephemera at the Lund University Library. Since 1698 everything printed in Sweden has been delivered to, kept, and made accessible at, the Lund University Library. A considerable part of the material is arranged according to the principle of provenance in a collection with an annual growth of approximately 150 shelfmet

Title: Designing a new warehouse to improve space utilization and handling efficiency: A case study of a production warehouse Authors: Emil Niklasson, Erik Ramström Supervisor: Joakim Kembro, Department of Industrial Management and Logistics, Faculty of Engineering, Lund University Problem description: The focus on warehousing has grown in the industry during the 21st century to increase the compe

Some of the shortcomings of the Standard Model of particle physics are the 'unnatural' value of the mass of the Higgs boson and the fact that the model cannot account for the process of baryogenesis - a mechanism which generates the observed asymmetry between matter and anti-matter in the Universe. The former is related to the fundamental scalar nature of the Higgs boson, connected to quad

Background: Social media has permeated practically every aspect of our everyday lives. One of these social media platforms is Instagram, which enables people to connect, communicate and share information with other users. The potential of these and social media influencers (SMI) to influence users’ behaviours is considerable. However, sustainability influencers, an emerging type of SMIs, have gain

Studien syftar till att undersöka arbetsmotivation och arbetstillfredsställelse hos två olika grupper av sjuksköterskor kopplat till Herzbergs tvåfaktorteori, Self determination theory och Inre/ yttre motivationsfaktorer. En jämförelse av fast anställda sjuksköterskor samt hyrsjuksköterskor utfördes. Specifikt undersöktes skillnader och samband av hygienfaktorer och motivationsfaktorer mellan grupThe study aims to investigate work motivation and job satisfaction among two different groups of nurses linked to Herzberg's two-factor theory, Self determination theory and internal/ external motivation. A comparison between continuous employed nurses and hired nurses was performed. More specifically, differences and relationships of hygiene factors and motivational factors between the two gr

The purpose of the paper is to examine how to identify and assess internal control for a specific business process from a non-operating management perspective through the structure of the COSO Internal Control - Integrated Framework 2013. By combining the practical and theoretical aspects, the thesis aims to enrich the identification and assessment of internal control concepts.

Progress in patient safety in healthcare has been frustratingly slow despite 20 years of intense effort. Recent literature suggests that current approaches inadequately address the complexity of healthcare, possibly explaining this lack of progress. What then sustains the current safety norm, sustaining a mismatched safety model in the face of challenge? This research project explores this issue

In this Master’s thesis an in-depth model of a shunt active filter for high frequency analysis is constructed. The purpose is to enable analysis of higher frequency behavior reaching 1MHz. Using the high frequency model, common mode currents can be simulated. The model is built using high frequency impedance measurements of the internal components in one of Comsys ABs active filters. The measure

This thesis tries to examine how today’s Russian disinformation campaigns can be related to the Soviet strategies of active measures by analyzing newspaper articles from the Russian state owned media outlets Russia Today and Sputnik News. The news articles are related to Swedish domestic policy, and this thesis uses a narrative analytical approach to find narratives that Russia tries to form about
