The COVID-19 crisis has forced many teams to work from home unprepared. This sudden shift proposes various adverse effects on employees' health since stress levels seem to increase in work and private settings. Previous research has identified healthy leadership as a valuable resource for improving the health of employees. This study examined how leaders promote health virtually in their team
In this thesis, we examine the Arnoldi iteration - an iterative algorithm used for finding a Hessenberg form of a matrix as well as approximating its eigenvalues by forming an orthonormal basis of a Krylov subspace. We explore the mechanism behind the work of the algorithm and how the values it finds approximate the eigenvalues. In the process of answering these questions we consider the concepts
The World Health Organization classified Covid-19 as a pandemic in March 2020 which led many countries to recommend social distancing, restrict the freedom of movement and to close everything except necessary services. Covid-19 related research focuses primarily on closures and interruption of cultural services and/or their digitalization. Sweden’s Covid-19 strategy has been different from other c
Automated fluorescence microscopy is an emerging technique that enables researchers to generate large amounts of data which in turn allows for large scale quantitative studies. In previous small scale quantitative studies, migration modes found by qualitatively observing migrating lung cancer cells have been described. Since such a method starts from qualitative observations it might not generaliz
Digital tools and support are used today to facilitate and streamline operations in healthcare. In this thesis a qualitative study is conducted which addresses regional digitalization managers attitudes towards digital dictation and speech recognition in healthcare. The study aims to explore attitudes that affect implementation of digital dictation and speech recognition in healthcare. The empiric
Anthropogenic pressure on coastal areas continues to increase, thus intensifying coastal erosion. Coastal monitoring programs are therefore essential to prevent severe ecosystem and economic consequences. Successful coastal monitoring schemes require highly accurate analysis-ready Digital surface models (DSMs) derived using the same workflow. Using a Unmanned Aerial Vehicle – Structure from motion
En av konsekvenserna av klimatförändringen är en ökning av extrema regn. Kraftigt regn har blivit vanligare de senaste åren, troligen kommer nederbörden fortsätta att öka under kommande åren, säger forskarna. Den 10 augusti 2020, föll ett kraftigt regn i Ljungby stad som orsakade många översvämningar i privata och publika områden. Huvudsyftet med denna avhandling är att stötta de som jobbar med ko
Early erythrocyte transfusion is common in infants born extremely premature. Research has shown that these children are at greater risk of morbidity later in life, and that iatrogenic blood loss from blood sample analysis is one of the contributing factors to the need for transfusions. Acoustophoresis-based plasmapheresis could potentially be used to reduce the loss of endogenous blood components
Digital tools in (zoo)archaeology have great potential for education, mediation, and research. Microphotogrammetric 3D-modeling offers new non-intrusive analytical approaches to old problems and questions. This thesis aimed to perform morphological differentiation between cut marks made from lithic and metal tool using qualitative and statistical quantitative approaches (Principal Component Analys
What indicates that the Scandinavian bog bodies were places in bogs as a result of a ritual act? This paper will try to look into this by studying different cases of bog bodies from the Early Iron Age. To answer this question, I will examine the various theories researchers provide regarding bog bodies and why they were deposited. In a time period and region which is mainly dominated by cremation,
The territory of Western Sahara (WS) has been occupied by Morocco since 1975, displacing many of the indigenous people now living in refugee camps in Algeria. In 2019, the EU adopted a new Sustainable Fisheries Partnership Agreement (SFPA) with Morocco which includes WS waters. This in spite of two court rulings stating that trade agreements including WS resources are not legal without the cons
Climate change and the sustainability challenges of the 21st century require the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions in all sectors. Accordingly, political objectives urge for a shift from road to rail in logistics. This drives innovation, increased efficiency, and customer friendliness in the rail industry. These advancements are strongly needed as investments have been neglected in the past an
High costs, time delays, inefficiency and complicated border procedures when engaging in cross-border trade hinders competitiveness and economic development in many developing countries, such as Uganda. To try to reduce these obstacles and challenges, Uganda has implemented One-stop border posts, intending to make international trade cheaper, quicker, and simpler. This paper investigates the effic
Att leverera en god äldreomsorg är en av statens viktigaste uppgifter. Det är en viktig del av svensk välfärd, där invånarna har en förväntan om att kvaliteten på vården ska vara god och där staten vill att detta ska ske kostnadseffektivt. Den kanske viktigaste delen i dessa strävande är personalen vid de särskilda boendena som har daglig kontakt med brukarna. I detta arbete undersöks närmare vad
The current COVID-19 pandemic has confused markets and economies, leading competition authorities around the world to consider how to apply competition law in these exceptional circumstances. Competition authorities have introduced tools that have not previously been used in competition law and have succeeded in providing companies with prompt advice in cases of extreme urgency. The COVID-19 crisi
Reducing the ecological footprint and achieving environmental sustainability is regarded as one of the main goals of the world in recent decades. To achieve these goals, some practices in people’s life should be changed. As an essential part of human needs, food consumption is one of the practices that significantly impact environmental sustainability. In the last few decades, modern technologies,
