Syftet med uppsatsen var att undersöka om det fanns ett samband mellan social jämförelse på sociala nätverk och global självkänsla hos gymnasieelever i Helsingborg. Vi var även intresserade hur sociala nätverk kan påverka ungdomars identitetsutveckling och i längden även deras globala självkänsla. För att undersöka ifall det fanns ett samband använde vi oss av två olika enkäter, INCOM som mäter soThe purpose of the paper was to examine if there exists a relationship between social comparison on social networks and global self-esteem among high school students in Helsingborg. We we’re also interested in how social networks can affect the development of identity among high shcool students and in the long run, their global self-esteem.

There were around one million apartments built in Sweden during 1965 to 1974 as part of the so called Swedish Million Programme, almost half of them concentrated in Stockholm, Gothenburg and Malmoe. These building are now considered unattractive. The need of renovation is urgent in many aspects -ventilation, windows, balconies, facades and sanitary pipe replacement. The total investment cost for t

Background The Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) is a global public health issue. Sweden has a national strategy for prevention of HIV and other sexually transmitted infections (STIs), and migrants are one of the target groups. One strategy to prevent HIV/STI is to increase knowledge through education on sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) in schools such as the Swedish language scho

Många fartyg och fraktfartyg körs på HFO (Heavy Fuel Oil), denna typ av olja är så tjock att den behöver värmas för att kunna flyta. HFO innehåller också många kemiska ämnen så som svavel, som är skadligt för naturen och de Eco-system som finns i haven, därför har många länder börjat införa restriktioner och direktiv av vilka sorters bränsle som får användas på deras vatten. Detta har medfört att Engine lubrication is very important for engine sustainability and efficiency. It becomes even more important when heavier fuel types who contributes to lubrication are changed to alternative fuel without the same lubrication abilities. Because the performance of lubrication systems sometimes can be very hard to study in real time due to hostile environments inside engines, specialized techniques

The Internet of Things (IOT) is a fast growing field with new actors constantly joining in. Locations such as farms or remote areas do not always have Internet coverage to access the IoT. This thesis looks at LoRaWAN as an IoT technology and ad-hoc networking to solve this problem. Existing ad-hoc routing protocols such as AODV, HWMP, and ZRP were studied. Based on the study they were evaluated as

Syftet med denna studie är att analysera resistivitetsdata från ett område i Hilleröd kommun och att kartlägga förekomsten av sand och grus. Naturgrus och sand är eftertraktade material inom anläggnings- och byggnadssektorn men fungerar också som bra grundvattenreservoarer. Region Hovedstaden i Danmark försöker hitta mäktiga lager av sand (0,6-2 mm) och naturgrus (2-20 mm) på Själland för utvinninThe purpose of this study is to analyze resistivity data from an area in Hilleröd municipality and to map the presence of sand and gravel. Gravel and sand are materials with high a demand in the construction sector, but also function as great groundwater reservoirs. Region Hovedstaden in Denmark wants to search for thick layers of sand (0.6-2 mm) and gravel (2-20 mm) in Själland for extraction. Th

Formaldehyd är en kemikalie som används till allt möjligt. I första hand används den som en råvara till andra kemiska fabriker, men kan också användas för att göra olika typer av laminater. Johnson Matthey Formox är ett företag som utvecklar och säljer fabriker som producerar formaldehyd. Formaldehyd skapas när metanol reagerar med syre under specifika situationer. Formox har gjort många utvecklinA pre-adiabatic reactor concept for catalytic methanol oxidation was investigated. The reason was the possibilities of a reduced catalyst reloading time and reduced deflagration risk. An adiabatic reactor pilot was constructed. Trials were performed to confirm that the pilot was running at an adiabatic state. Information about the pilot pressure drop, temperature profile and outlet composition was

For most companies, especially the ones handling large flows of material there are buffers in different stages of the value chain, also referred to as inventory. By effectively managing inventories, businesses can see bottom line impact on financial performance factors such as revenue streams, costs and capital efficiency. The authors built a relevant frame of references based upon theories within

During the last few years, the interest for electric vehicles has increased enormously, there are even talk of prohibiting fossil fuels in the coming years. There is a risk that the charging of these electric vehicles can strain the electric grid. The simulations of the grid with added power demand from the electric vehicles concludes that there will not be a problem on the low- and medium voltage
