The demand for renewable energy is constantly increasing and in order to compete with other sources of energy the wind energy output has to increase. The power output from wind turbines are highly dependent on the swept radius of rotor blades. Increasing the length of the rotor blades will increase the weight of the blades, resulting in higher demands of the structural performance, but also introd

Den vanligaste typen av lyftbord inom industrin är uppbyggda med en saxlift som får sin vertikala rörelse med hjälp av hydraulcylindrar. Enligt standard SS-EN 1570-1 finns det i vissa situationer krav på att en mekaniskspärr ska finnas som förhindrar lyftbordet från att sjunka. Existerande produkter som företaget Marco AB utvecklat och säljer finns, men antingen kräver de ett omkringliggande schakThe most common types of lift tables in the industry is structured with a scissor lift that gets its vertical movement by means of hydraulic cylinders. According to the standard SS-EN 1570-1, some situations demand that a mechanical lock must be provided to prevent the table from sinking. Existing products that the company Marco AB have developed and are selling are available, but either require a
Detta projekt syftar till att förstå vilka synliga effekter klumpar av mörk materia i Vintergatan kan ha på sönderslitna stjärnsystem, och om klumparna av mörk materia är tillräckligt många för att orsaka observerbara effekter. Vår nuvarande model av hur Universum utvecklades efter The Big Bang kallas för Lambda Cold Dark Matter-kosmologi, förkortat LambdaCDM. Lambda står för mörk energi, och deleThe current Lambda Cold Dark Matter cosmology predicts galaxy growth by hierarchical merging, leading to galaxy substructure like tidal streams and dark matter subhalos devoid of stars. The goal of this thesis is to investigate whether tidal stream-subhalo interactions can leave observable gaps in the streams, and at which rate this might happen in a galaxy like the Milky Way. The stream-subhalo i
Women have been regarded as a disadvantaged group in Nepal (Aoki & Pradhan, 2013), because of the limited opportunities in these areas, women residing in rural parts of Nepal such as, Kudari VDC in Jumla, are particularly vulnerable. The women in Jumla normally are involved in daily household jobs like cooking, cleaning, washing, feeding the cattle etc. The Maoist insurgency (about a 10 years
The automotive industry is a field of enormous competition. Customers and regulations demand economical and sustainable products. To achieve maximum efficiency, engine systems require detailed control. To increase the accuracy of the models that describe the combustion process, a demand has arisen at Scania for an exact prediction of the combustion chamber volume. During engine operation, the com
För att begränsa den globala uppvärmningen krävs en omställning mot en klimatmässigt hållbar livsmedelsförsörjning. Konsumtionen av kött och mejeriprodukter, som idag står för en stor andel av matens klimatpåverkan, behöver minska till förmån för mer resurseffektiva vegetabiliska livsmedel. För att kunna komplettera eller ersätta animaliska näringskällor berikas många växtbaserade produkter med inIn order to mitigate the global warming, a transition towards a sustainable diet is required. Such a transition includes reduced consumption of meat and dairy products, by substituting these with more resource efficient vegetable-based products. In order to meet the nutrient content of animal foods, vegan products are often supplemented with artificial vitamins and minerals. Few studies have inves
This thesis investigates the role of the Human Resource (HR) departments in the success or failure of the Merger or Acquisition (M&A) process. Through M&As, companies aim to gain strategic advantages by obtaining another company’s core competences, buying their biggest competitor or building a stronger organization by merging with another. In contrast of the high quantity of M&As condu

Bakgrund: Till följd av att den globala konkurrensen tilltar, ökar komplexiteten, flexibiliteten och produktvariationen inom produktion. Detta leder till att förbättringsprojekt blir allt svårare att genomföra. Händelsestyrd simulering har i litteraturen blivit identifierat som ett verktyg med förmågan att lösa dessa utmaningar, men till följd av att komplexiteten i en produktion ökar, växer ocksåBackground: Following a growing global competition, complexity, flexibility and product variability of manufacturing systems are increasing. This has led to improvement projects becoming more difficult to carry out. Discrete event simulation (DES) has in literature been identified as having the capability to solve these challenges, but as complexity of a manufacturing system increases so does also
Att elektroner kretsar runt atomkärnan i bestämda banor vet kanske de flesta nuförtiden - men hur hamnar de där? Hur rör de sig mellan banorna? När atomer förs samman i molekyler, vad händer med elektronerna då? Tidigare så har fysiker och kemister nödgats se elektroner med statistiska glasögon; de rör sig så snabbt över så korta avstånd att inga instrument hann med att fånga deras rörelser. DetDemands are specified for an interferometer setup capable of supporting attosecond resolution pump-probe experiments, as well as molecular alignment experiments. A design for two interferometers fulfilling these demands is presented. As the presented setup relies on annular beams for discrimination, high-order harmonic generation is attempted using annular beams. The success of these experiments
This study looks at the politics of increasing the number of female peacekeepers in international peace operations. Through in-depth, semi structured interviews with women police officers from Bangladesh who have served as part of the United Nations Police, the study aims to explore their gendered experience in peace operations. Aimed as an exploratory case study, this research builds on previous
Det tilltagande inslaget av ett cyberelement i samhället, i såväl civila som militära kontexter, har lett till en ökande förekomst av cyberoperationer, utförda av individer, grupper eller stater; antingen direkt eller indirekt. Den mellanstatliga rätten till självförsvar utgör ett undantag till stadgans våldsförbud och förutsätter, i såväl art. 51 FN-stadgan som internationell sedvanerätt, ett väpThe increasing presence of a cyber element in our society, in civilian as well as in military contexts, has led to an increased amount of cyber operations, carried out by individuals, groups or states; either directly or indirectly. The right to self-defense between states is an exception to the Charter's prohibition of violence and presupposes, in both Article 51 of the UN Charter and customa
Utsläppskraven för avloppsreningsverk (ARV) i Sverige uppdateras regelbundet, och samtidigt ökar även kraven på energieffektivitet. Vid Klagshamns avloppsreningsverk i södra Malmö har den inkommande kvävebelastningen ökat under en lång tid, och för att minska denna planeras separat rejektvattenbehandling med en anammoxprocess att implementeras på verket.

In light of what have become known as the European migration crisis, this thesis examines the legality of one of EU’s burden-sharing responses to this perceived threat – the EU/Turkey deal on March 18 2016. For many asylum seekers, the dream of a safe haven in the EU goes through Turkey to the Greek islands, leading to a significant rise in the number of would-be asylum seekers in the EU over the
Den här uppsatsen syftar till att undersöka kollisionen som kan uppstå mellan å ena sidan människors vilja att manifestera sin religion och hälso- och sjukvårdshänsyn å andra sidan. Med anledning av två fall som nyligen aktualiserats i Sverige undersöker jag huruvida smittskyddsregler i vården kan grunda begränsning av religionsfriheten. Analysen görs utifrån ett mänskliga rättigheter- och diskrimThe aim of this essay is to investigate the conflicting interests that can arise between religious people’s will to manifest their religion on one hand and healthcare related issues on the other hand. Based upon two recent cases in Sweden I’m trying to distinguish whether hygiene regulations in healthcare are enough to limit the freedom of religion. The analysis is done from a human rights and dis
The industrial food production system have given rise to tens of thousands of local, national and international social movements concerned with food and agriculture, reacting to the perceived social and environmental failures of the industrial food system. One of the directions inside these movements is the internationally based “local food” movement. The ”local food” movement promotes small-scal
This bachelor thesis, ”You don’t bite the hand that feeds you” – A discourse analytical study of fashion journalism's limitations and consequences, studies runway reviews in order to identify the different uses of discoursive language within the so-called ’glossy’ fashion journalism. Through a qualitative discourse analytical method and approach, runway reviews from Vogue Runway have been subj
