Det är vanligt att bedriva ett mångfaldsarbete i organisationer idag, men dess omfattning och definition är ofta otydlig. Jämställdhetsarbetet tenderar att läggas till som en del i mångfaldsarbetet. Därför är det intressant att undersöka hur jämställdhets- och mångfaldsarbetet fungerar ihop, och vilken plats jämställdhetsarbetet får i mångfaldsarbetet. För att ta reda på det undersöktes tre kommun

Buildings are getting taller due to increased urbanisation and densification of cities. More advanced construction methods and the desire to construct impressive buildings is also supporting the trend. Due to their inherent slenderness resulting in low eigenfrequencies, these buildings are susceptible to wind-induced vibrations which can be highly disturbing for occupants. Already barely perceivab

Uppsatsens syfte är att undersöka maktrelationers påverkan vid kriser och samhällstörningar med särskilt fokus på hur detta framställs i utvärderingar av samhällets insatser vid kriser och samhällsstörningar.

Med mer kraftfulla grafikkort har möjligheterna utökats för vilka grafikmetoder som kan utföras i realtid. För en sådan metod, raytracing, används speciella data- strukturer, och för att kunna användas i realtid behöver dessa byggas upp snabbt.The Bounding Volume Hierarchy is an acceleration data structure used in ray tracing, allowing for faster intersection tests between rays and triangles. The goal of this thesis was to take one algorithm for rapidly generating such data structures, the Bonsai algorithm, which was initially implemented on a CPU, and instead implement it on a graphics processing unit. Many parts of the al- gorithm go

För drygt 40 år sedan kom en stor grupp flyktingar till Tanzania från Burundi. Om man räknar in barn och barnbarn omfattar den här gruppen idag ungefär 200,000 personer.

Förorenar Arktiska samhällen sig själva och påverkas marina organismer i samband med detta? Ja, bara i Adventfjorden och Grønfjorden på Svalbard finns förorening från lokala källor för 14 av 57 analyserade flamskydds- och ytbehandlingsämnen i sediment. Inte så mycket tänker kanske du? Men den största anledningen till förekomsten av dessa ämnen är utsläpp av orenat avloppsvatten och läckage från sMost of the ecotoxicological research conducted in the Arctic until today has focused on long range transport of pollutants, while fewer studies on local pollution have been published. The aim of this study was hence to investigate if local pollution of organophosphorus flame retardants (OPFRs), polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) and perfluorinated alkylated substances (PFAS) occurs outside tw

In Sweden, between 1964 and 1975, approximately one million dwellings were raised in the so called million programme. Due to their age and often neglected maintenance regarding both building envelope and installations, in many cases, comprehensive retrofitting is now required. The aim with this study was to theoretically investigate the energy saving potential and cost-effectiveness of integrating
