Skapandet och delandet av kunskap inom en organisation är en nyckel till att vara konkurrenskraftig inom sin bransch och vara innovativ. En stor del av kunskapsutbyte sker dock i informella sammanhang som uppstår naturligt på grund av att man befinner sig på samma ställe. Vid en övergång till distansarbete, som den vi upplevt till följd av Covid-19, försvinner den möjligheten och vad händer då

The purpose of this research is to understand collective social entrepreneurship in informal settlements in terms of the process of its emergence and development.

It is now allowed to sell mealworm (Tenebrio molitor) for food consumption, and it will probably play a major role in the search for future protein sources. The climate footprint of the mealworm is considerably smaller than for traditional livestock and is therefore of interest. Insects as human food is fairly unexploited in Sweden and the western world. In connection with the new legislation, an

Bakgrund: Aktiviteter i dagliga livet kan ses som ett grundläggande behov för att utvecklas och skapa kontroll i livet. Upplevelser av värde i aktiviteter kan skapa personlig mening, vilket ger potential till hälsa och välbefinnande. Då immigranter utgör en stor växande grupp i världen och påverkas av exkluderande faktorer till aktivitet, ses ett behov av att sammanställa aktiviteters betydelse fö

The purpose of this study has been to investigate how the psychosocial work with children, teens, and their families in health care in Skåne has been affected by the pandemic. In this study nine qualitative interviews were conducted with nine child counsellors in Skåne. Rosa Hartmut's social acceleration, together with parts of professional theory were used as theoretical starting points to an

Mobility and public transport are crucial determinants of sustainable development in cities. Gender dimensions are overlooked in urban mobility, impacting female public transport users’ ability to move freely in urban Delhi, India. Likewise, gender-blind mobility reinforces inequality, power dynamics and exposes city dwellers to environmental risks. Hence, this research aims to shed light on gende

Metallisk bearbetning har varit en del av den industriella utvecklingen sedan järnåldern. Sedan dess har det ändrat form och kriterier men effektivitet i skärande bearbetning av metall har varit ett av de största målen i den industriella världen lika länge. För att ha maximal effektivitet krävs en viss nivå av processbeteende, vilket är det som inspirerade examensarbetet. Projektet genomfördes i sMetal cutting has been part of industrial development since the iron age. Since then, it has changed shapes and criteria, but efficiency in metal cutting has been one of the biggest goals in the industrial world for just as long. To have maximum efficiency requires some level of process behavior prediction, which inspired the degree project. The project was conducted in collaboration with Lund Uni

Vad, från ett klingande perspektiv, exakt är jazz och var går gränsen för när det slutar vara det? I syfte att närma mig svaren på dessa frågor formulerade jag en kvantitativ enkätundersökning som huvudsakligen jämför klingande exempel. Enkäten fokuserar på de musikaliska aspekterna harmonik, melodik, rytmik, improvisation och instrumentation. Exemplen har jag konstruerat på så sätt att de jämför What, from a sounding perspective, exactly is jazz, and where is the boarder to when it stops being that? With the purpose of answering these questions, I developed a quantitative survey that mainly compared sounding examples. The survey focuses on the music aspects harmony, melody, rhythm, improvisation and instrumentation. I constructed the examples as such that they compare one or a couple of t

Den tillsynes exponentiellt ökande mängden data och dess kringliggande tjänster och processer ställer nya krav på hur människor behandlar och tillgodogör sig data. Denna förmåga; Data Literacy, eller dataläskunnighet, blir allt viktigare allt eftersom data får en större roll i vårt samhälle och våra liv. Denna studie, baserad på sex intervjuer med personer på ledande positioner vid stora företag i

This Master Thesis is made in collaboration with ASSA ABLOY Entrance Systems and addresses the issues and problem areas of two dock leveler models; 60 kN and 100 kN to find a new improved design. After the following product development process, a new concept was created which could withstand applied forces exceedingly. The main purpose and goal of the project was to find a dock leveler design whi

The retail industry is currently undergoing major changes, driven primarily by technological development and changing consumer behaviour. It has been shown that the behaviour of young people increasingly influences the attitudes and actions of older generations. This suggests that the new generation of young adults, Generation Z, may greatly influence the development of the retail industry. Based

Inom nuklearmedicinsk bildtagning injiceras en patient med ett läkemedel bundet till en radionuklid. De fotoner som emitteras kan detekteras med en gammakamera, vilket ger en planar bild av hur läkemedlet tagits upp i kroppen. Brusnivån relaterar till antalet fotoner som detekteras. En längre bildtagningstid och högre injicerad aktivitet minskar brusnivån, men ökar sannolikheten för rörelseartefakBackground The project aims to reduce the noise in planar 111-In projections with a machine learning model. Method Sixteen base phantoms were used to create 696 phantoms in XCAT. An anterior planar projection was simulated with 111-In and ten uptake curves for each phantom in SIMIND. From the 6960 simulated planar projections 55600 sample and label pairs were created by adding Poisson distribut

The purpose of this study was to investigate how professionals view the Special Team in the city of Landskrona and their way of working with people with dementia. In the study, five interviews were conducted – one with the unit manager for the Special Team, one interview each with two of the assistant nurses for the Special Team, one interview with a social secretary from the city of Malmö and one

Following a brief introduction on the platform ecosystems, the impacts of the complementors to the platforms are introduced. This study examines the dynamics of collaboration and competition between digital platforms and their complementors; mainly, it focuses on complementors’ defence strategies for competing against the platform. A review of the literature about the collaboration and competition

The aim of this paper is to contribute to the ongoing discussion about M&A performance and the impact pre-merger characteristics have on post-merger performance for the acquiring firm. The study is limited to acquisition deals that occurred in 2014 and the acquiring firm being located in the EU-15 area. Using the quantitative indicators method, econometric models were performed to measure the

Engångsartiklar i sjukvården, onödigt dyrt och resurskrävande? Sjukvården står för en betydande del av utsläppen av växthusgaser i Sverige och samtidigt som engångs-produkter identifierats som en av de stora bovarna ökar andelen engångsartiklar i sjukvårdens verksamheter. Resultatet av denna studie visar på att man kan minska påverkan på miljön och göra ekonomiska besparingar om man byter från etBackground: environmental impact from health care contribute to a substantial part of the public sector’s consumption based emission of greenhouse gases in Sweden. An issue, recognized by the health care sector itself, is the increasing use of single-use products. Objective: to compare environmental impact and cost differences between a single-use, ResposableTM, and mixed setup of the surgical in
