The boat life is very popular in Sweden with over 880 000 registered boats. For the safety of the people out at sea the Swedish coast guard is working hard with preventing crime and accidents. Drink-driving at sea is one of the crimes the coast guard works very hard with to prevent and they have gotten extended authorities to do that.

The research interest of this Master’s thesis is public librarians’ work life. The purpose of the essay is to examine public librarians’ experiences of work enjoyment, their valuations of work enjoyment and work motivation factors, respectively. The research was done through a web-based survey that was mediated via the e-mailing list “Biblist” that reaches the majority of Sweden’s librarians. The

This qualitative research studies how airlines can use social media as a branding tool in the South Korean market. In order to execute the research properly, the South Korean market had to be studied in terms of social media environment and consumer behavior. In addition, the airline perspective had to be brought in with high representativeness. The researchers decided to use Finnair as a qualitat

Europeiska Unionen är världens största biståndsgivare och har gått i täten för den nya effektivare biståndspolitiken som fastslagits i Parisagendan där givarna åtagit sig att minska fragmentering, ett nytt fenomen som uppstått i takt med ett förändrat biståndslandskap. Fragmentering innebär att ”för många givare ger för lite bistånd till för många länder”, vilket skapar ett ineffektivt bistånd med

In recent years an increase in stress and mental strain in the workplace has been reported for instance in office work (Arbetsmiljöverket, 2014). This study examined a model that combines concepts from Karasek and Theorell´s (1990) Job Demand-Control-Support model, which has earlier been related to stress, with Macan´s (1994) Time Management Behavioral model. The aim of the study was to investigat

Forskningen har visat att det finns olika åsikter om innovationer kan leda till hållbar utveckling. Det finns en del forskare som menar att man med hjälp av innovationer kan uppnå en hållbar utveckling, men det finns också forskare som hävdar det motsatta. Forskningen kring vad CSR innebär är fortfarande mycket oklar, vilket kan göra det svårt för företagen att veta hur begreppet egentligen ska ha

In order for our energy consumption to be sustainable, we need to rely more and more on renewable energy resources, such as solar power and wind power. In Sweden, 69% of the land area is covered in forest. To open up the possibility of exploiting these forested areas for wind power production, it is desired to gain a better knowledge of the flow situation above forests. An analytical and a numeric

En välmående demokratisk rättsstat är beroende av att allmänheten känner förtroende för rättsväsendet. I en domares uppdrag ingår således inte bara att döma rättvist och enligt gällande rätt utan även att verka för ett starkt förtroende från allmänheten som skall uppleva att den får en rättssäker prövning av våra domstolar. Domaren skall verka för detta genom att bl.a. uppträda professionellt, korA prosperous democratic legal state depends on the public’s confidence in the judiciary. Included in a judge’s duties is not only to judge fairly and in accordance with applicable law, but also to promote a strong confidence in the judiciary among the general public to fortify the common perception of the courts as fair and impartial. Judges shall act in accordance with these interests by conducti

In this thesis a mechanical concept for variable relative rotation, here called timing, between two cutting rollers has been designed. This concept has then been compared to a concept using one servo motor per shaft. The clients would like to use rotary cutters to cut cardboard, but have had problems with the anvil wearing out on similar solutions. Therefore a solution where the timing between the

Body size is one of the most important traits of zooplankton. It affects their metabolism, life history and ecology and can eventually influence community and ecosystem processes. Higher and more fluctuating temperatures due to climate change are expected to have an influence on zooplankton size. Based on general empirical evidence, warmer temperatures may lead to smaller zooplankton, while temper

Metod: Uppsatsen har en kvalitativ ansats och abduktivt tillvägagångssätt. Studien är en flerfallsstudie av 14 fall som undersökts genom semistrukturerade intervjuer.The thesis has resulted in a contribution to the agency theory regarding what motivates agents to act in line with principal's interests. Our study shows that the agents in the study, the directors, manage assignments optimally if they are also driven by interest and self- fulfillment. The thesis has also resulted in a framework of recommendations and coping strategies that guide the owners an

This study contributes to fill the gap in the existing community health worker literature by offering a more nuanced perspective on performance motivation of healthcare workers from rural South Africa. Specifically, it focuses on the various work incentives and perceived organization support that shape work performance of healthcare workers and, therefore, organizational effectiveness. By followin

PPC is a new combustion concept that combines high efficiency with low emissions. This thesis is based on experiments conducted with a heavy duty PPC engine that was ran on neat methanol. A fuel that might be a candidate for future engine propulsion in large scale. By varying the inlet pressure, the corresponding inlet temperatures were found for premixed combustion, i.e. combustion in HCCI mode.

Pålitliga simuleringar av komponenters hållfasthet kräver att materialets egenskaper studeras ordentligt. Gummi med fyllmedel uppvisar olika egenskaper beroende på tillämpning. I denna studie undersöks möjligheten att använda förenklingar vid simulering av materialets egenskaper.The aim of this study was to examine if simplified linear analysis can be used to capture the complex and non-elastic behaviour that filled rubber exhibits. Linear analysis includes both linear elastic material models and a linear solving technique. The studied part in this thesis was a hose, connecting the air-inlet and turbo in a Scania truck engine. The studied material was a filled EPDM-rubber
