Utvecklingen går snabbt framåt och att vara ständigt uppkopplad har under många år varit vardag för människan. Men med ny teknik kommer nya möjligheter och det är nu även dags för industrin att koppla upp sig, vad som ofta benämns som den fjärde industriella revolutionen eller industri 4.0. På Assa Abloy vill man nu undersöka vilka möjligheter som finns med den nya tekniken och ett examensarbete mThis master thesis has been carried out to investigate the possibility to predict battery failure of Nickel-Metal Hydride (NiMH) batteries. Assa Abloy use these batteries as a back-up in their door solution systems in case there is a power loss. The main function is to be able to open doors that are part of an emergency exit route. Thus, approximately 200 battery packs were used to collect data re

High data rate is still the most crucial factor in cellular systems, and with 5g approaching new techniques are studied to achieve higher bit rates. Using MIMO technology, the spatial domain was exploited through beamforming and multiplexing multiple users’ data together assured more spectrum efficiency which resulted in higher bit rates. Reciprocity based beamforming is feasible in TDD systems du

Tauopathies belong to a group of neurodegenerative diseases that are characterized by the presence of neurofibrillary tangles in neurons and includes diseases such as Alzheimer´s disease and frontotemporal dementia. Neurofibrillary tangles are insoluble deposits that are composed mainly of tau, which normally acts to stabilize microtubules. In disease, tau forms fibrillar and oligomeric species, wHelpers of helpers – co-chaperone proteins and protein aggregation Proteins are one of the essential molecules that make up our bodies and the bodies of all living beings. Chaperone proteins exist as a protein ¨helper,¨ folding, maintaining, and regulating other proteins. To help these helpers, co-chaperone proteins, ¨helpers of helpers,¨ regulate chaperone proteins and help them by carrying out

Emphasis is being placed on how life narratives can be incorporated into caring for the elderly based on the assumption that aged health care should be grounded on narrative perspectives in order to reduce ageist behaviours. The success of this however depends on the willingness of the elderly to share their stories. The aim of this study was to explore the reasons why Swedish elders decline to sh

The question of guilt, considering the Holocaust, is a complex one. The recent Polish amendment to the law against Holocaust denial forbids, among others, calling the Nazi concentration camps for Polish camps. This makes the question of guilt even more complex. On one side the Germans acknowledge their guilt by, for example, their law against denying the Holocaust. Across the border, the Poles hav

Syftet med studien var att fördjupa förståelsen av hur hotell kan utforma sitt servicelandskap genom tematisering. Syftet var även att förstå hur det fysiska och virtuella servicelandskapet står i relation till varandra. För att besvara syftet valdes tre frågeställningar: Hur kan hotell utforma det fysiska servicelandskapet genom tematisering? Hur kan hotell utforma det virtuella servicelandskapet

To reach the global targets, a number of actions must be taken. Among other things, the EU has decided that the recovery rate for waste from the building sector shall be at least 70 weight percent by year 2020. This means that the building sector needs to take increased responsibility for its waste. Based on the global targets, the Swedish Parliament has formulated 16 environmental quality targets
