The aim of this research was to gain a more nuanced picture of sustainability in furniture retail by investigating how it is handled in a furniture retail chain. The chosen method was setting up a case study on MIO AB, the central organization of a Swedish franchise chain, where data was collected using interviews and observations. The theoretical framework focused on sustainability aspects in the
Syftet med uppsatsen är att undersöka hur samproduktion av en omprofilering sker inom varumärkesforum på sociala medier.Uppsatsen grundar sig i en kvalitativ forskningsstil och använder sig av en netnografisk studie av fallföretaget Oatlys varumärkesforum på sociala medier i kombination med en semistrukturerad telefonintervju med Sara Hansson, ansvarig för sociala medier på fallföretaget Oatly.

Operators in DCS environments control and supervise the process with the help of Human-Machine Interfaces (HMI). The operators are usually stationary (or at least semi-stationary) because the HMI is stationary. The purpose of this bachelor’s thesis is to explore the prospects of using mobile devices, primarily touchpads, in Distributed Control System (DCS) surroundings. This includes (but is not l
This bachelor thesis project was carried out at Schneider Electric in Helsingborg, where the objective was to use an old robot with three linear axes. The engines were replaced and control cabinets with their latest products were built together to work and to become a complete unit. The complete unit was mounted on a cage which will be used by Schneider Electric for marketing. The Project is based
The condition of the Swedish railway has been frequently discussed, mainly during recent years. Lack of maintenance and budgetary allocation are words that constantly arise. During the winter the topic is notably higher, especially because of the media that regularly reports about cancelled and delayed train departures. This thesis will plunge into the difficulties that the railway sector will fac
Utveckling av nya kemiska processanläggningar kräver en styrutrustning som kan delas upp i ett antal delkomponenter som ofta återkommer i samma tappning oberoende av vilka kemikalier eller delprocesser som helheten består av. Förutsättningarna finns därför att skapa en standarduppställning som kan användas generellt och i skilda sammanhang. Examensarbetet består i att vidareutveckla befintlig bas
The main purpose of this master thesis is to determine the factors that significantly influence the capital structure decisions in the global renewable energy sector during the period 2005-2013.This study is implemented through a quantitative approach, using a panel data model, in which leverage is the dependent variable, controlled by a set of firm-specific, industry-specific, tax-related and mac
In this thesis an RGB-D camera was used with the goal to perform dynamic path planning in an initially unknown environment. Depth data from an RGB-D camera together with a discretizising algorithm is continuously used for maintaining an obstacle map of the environment which within the path planning algorithm D* Lite [S. Koening, 2005] is performed on the flight. Experiments were conducted on two
Dagens miljöproblem måste lösas för att skona framtida generationer och miljön. Miljöcertifiering är en bit på vägen. Syftet med denna rapport är att redogöra för vad det innebär att miljöcertifiera en byggnad. Rapporten behandlar hur olika miljöcertifieringsmetoder fungerar och hur arbetsmetodiken för en certifiering ser ut. Eftersom det finns olika miljöcertifieringsmetoder är syftet också att g
The curtain is a decorative object with at lot of additional functions. We wanted to work with the curtain and our goal was to make people see it with new eyes. We decided to try to raise the value of the curtain by giving the user an excuse to interact with it; through storage. The starting point of the project was a theme we call forgotten rooms and rejected items. To us this talks about how we
Den ekonomiska aspekten är starkt styrande i dagens samhälle. Detta innefattar även byggbranschen, där entreprenörer kan förlora eller vinna ett projekt utifrån deras kostnadskalkyl. Detta medför att materialvalen är starkt knutna till vad som är billigast. Studien startade med frågan med hur materialval hanteras, samt nischades till varför det inte byggs mer med tegel? Utifrån detta intervjuades
Vertical axis wind turbines have vertical rotation axles, unlike traditional wind turbines, which rotate around horizontal axles. Vertical wind turbines convert energy from turbulent winds, pick up wind energy from all directions and are easy to serve. The noise from a vertical axis wind turbine is only one-tenth as strong as horizontal-axle wind turbines, which make it possible to place the verti
Kågeröd is a village in the municipality of Svalöv with about 1500 inhabitants. The village has only one remaining grocery store, Coop Konsum, and the store is currently in a financial struggle due to to the high rate of crime that has affected the store during the past six months.

Problem/Bakgrund: Förenta Nationernas säkerhetsråd antog år 2000 resolution 1325 om kvinnor, fred och säkerhet där de riktar tydliga krav på militära organisationer att uppnå intern jämställdhet samt att intensifiera ansträngningarna för att integrera ett externt genderperspektiv i förberedelser, genomförande och utvärdering av fredsfrämjande insatser. Eftersom det finns en klar majoritet kvinnor
Major intrinsic proteins (MIPs) are proteins that allow the passive transfer of uncharged molecules through a membrane. They have many subfamilies the least understood of which is “X” intrinsic proteins (XIPs). The X illustrates that they are functionally uncharacterized. XIPs have previously been shown to facilitate the transport of boric acid, hydrogen peroxide, urea and glycerol across the memb

Staten har under olika perioder de senaste 100 åren avvecklat statliga verksamheter som bedrivits i myndighetsform genom att avknoppa dessa verksamheter till aktiebolag, stiftelser eller genom att lägga ned verksamheterna. Vid övergångar av statliga verksamheter till andra driftsformer har avsikten varit att skilja staten från eventuellt ansvar hänförligt till den överlåtna verksamheten genom att The Swedish state has at different times over the last 100 years closed down governmental activities performed in government agencies by transforming these agencies, or divisions of agencies, into joint-stock companies, trusts or just terminating the activities. At transitions of government activities to the other modes of operation, the intention has always been to separate the State from any res

Den nuvarande svenska arbetsrätten kan vara på kollisionskurs med EU-rätten avseende tidsbegränsade anställningar när det gäller implementeringen av direktiv 99/70/EG. EU-kommissionen anser att det finns en kollision mellan direktivet och sättet det införlivats i nationell rätt. Det finns bärkraftiga argument att samma skyddsnivå som avses i direktivet uppfylls indirekt genom de svenska arbetsrättCurrent Swedish labor rules may be on a collision with the European legal rules concerning time-limited employments arising from the EU directive 99/70/EC. The view of the European commission is that the directive has not been fulfilled and properly incorporated in the national rules. There are valid arguments that the level of protection as intended in the directive is achieved, regardless of the
