Studiens syfte är att kartlägga om och hur det språkliga stödet som ges av förskollärare till barn med språkstörning/DLD skiljer sig, beroende på om barnen är placerade på en sedvanlig förskola eller en språkförskola. För att göra detta har vi genomfört en pilotstudie av en enkät som forskargruppen SPETS vid Karolinska Institutet avser att använda i sin studie. Där utvärderas huruvida våra tre tilThe purpose of the study is to map whether and how the language support given by preschool teachers to children with language disorder/Developmental Language Disorder (DLD) differs, depending on whether the children are placed in a regular preschool or a language preschool. To do this, we have conducted a pilot study of a survey that the research group SPETS at Karolinska Institutet intends to use

The purpose of the analysis was to study the health of early farmers. To achieve this, the aim was to make a paleopathological analysis of the osteological material from the passage grave Gillhög in Barsebäck parish (Skåne). By recording and analyzing the bone material from the passage grave, the aim was to investigate if the bones showed any paleopathological changes and which ones. Hopefully, th

Wood and wood-based materials are common materials used in buildings, both in- and outdoors. However, wood is vulnerable to water and moisture which is why it is essential to keep it dry and prevent moisture from getting into the wood. Thus, there are multiple methods to protect the wood against moisture, such as using paint, oil, impregnation, or different metal profiles. Fasteners penetrating wo

Det allt mer ökande intresset av elektriska fordon har skapat en stark utvecklingskurva för elbilsbatterier. Därför har det utvecklats ett system som låter batterierna verka i deras mest optimala miljö och därigenom fungerar bättre och håller längre. Ett sådant system, ett batterihanterarsystem, är det som har förbättrats i denna rapport utifrån såväl tekniskt funktionella aspekter till logistiskaThe ever-increasing interest in electrical vehicles around the world creates a strong developing curve for demand for batteries in electrical vehicles. Meaning, the batteries needs to be able to function better and for a longer time without being destroyed in the process. At the same time the batteries also needs to be rechargeable to not unnecessarily pollute the environment. A battery management

En mil väst om Eslöv ligger den gamla bruksorten Marieholm. Där bor idag ca 1700 invånare. Marieholm ligger som så många andra Skånska samhällen beläget mellan åkrar, och har en å - Saxån - som flyter längs med dess södra sida. Genom staden går järnvägsspåren som för med sig ett pågatåg till och från Eslöv, Lund och Malmö en gång i timmen. Resan hit från Malmö tar ca 40 minuter. Söder om stan, på

“(Un)sustainable fashion: H&M breaks promise.” “H&M sued for greenwashing claims, again.” “H&M under fire!” Helena Holgersson is sitting in her office on the top floor of H&M’s Stockholm Headquarters staring at the headlines flickering on her computer screen. It has been a week of intensive media coverage on the latest greenwashing accusations towards the company she has been in c

Neural networks can be utilized for an ever widening selection of tasks. In this thesis the most common optimization algorithms underlying neural networks are investigated: classical momentum, Nesterov momentum, AdaGrad, AdaDelta, RMSprop, Adam, AdaMax, and Nadam. The underlying mathematics that these algorithms are based on is described. There is a summary of key components of a neural network—ac

The European Union (EU) taxonomy regulation marked a milestone in the sustainable finance agenda. The taxonomy aims to accelerate the mobilisation of public and private finance to support the transition to a net-zero economy. The EU’s taxonomy regulation established a classification system of environmentally sustainable economic activities to provide financiers clarity on what to consider a sustai

Under åren 1965-1974 genomfördes en omfattande bostadsproduktion i Sverige som betecknas miljonprogrammet. Då byggdes en miljon bostäder runtom i landet. Idag finns behov av att renovera dessa bostäder. I samband med det kan energisparåtgärder genomföras för att minska energianvändningen. Detta kan uppfyllas genom att åtgärda otäta väggar och byta ut äldre fönster som medför oönskade värmeförlusteIn order to maintain a good indoor environment, air pollutants such as moisture need to be removed by the ventilation. Among the Swedish Public Health Agency's general advices for ventilation and indoor environment, 3 g/m3 is a guideline value for moisture excess during winter months to not pose a risk to human health. The indoor climate parameters moisture excess, relative humidity and air va

In this paper, the viability of integrating solar power with an already running wind power plant is examined. The study, conducted in cooperation with Eolus, takes place in Anneberg, Sweden, home to three wind turbines with a combined capacity of 10.8 MW. This study examines whether or not it would be profitable to integrate an additional intermittent power source to the wind power plant’s existin

Syftet med detta examensarbete var att undersöka och öka kunskapen om hur olika parametrar påverkar de dynamiska egenskaperna hos balkbroar i stål som används för gångtrafik. Stålbroar används ofta på grund av sin höga hållfasthet och låga vikt. På grund av de lägre statiska lasterna som orsakas av fotgängare är de dynamiska lasterna vanligtvis dimensionerande. För lätta broar med ett lågt förhålThe aim of this master's thesis was to investigate and increase the knowledge of how different parameters affect the dynamic properties of steel beam bridges used for pedestrian traffic. Steel footbridges are commonly used due to their high strength and low weight. Due to the lower static loads caused by pedestrians, the dynamic loads are usually decisive. For lightweight bridges with a low

This thesis employed several portable sensors on board an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) and manned aircraft in order to test new methods of measuring vertical profiles of aerosol particles and contribute to knowledge of aerosol distributions in the atmosphere. More data in this area is required to improve atmospheric modelling and future climate scenarios. The handheld nanoparticle detector Partec

Fatty acids-based herbicides are considered to be a green alternative to synthesized weed control products. However, the environmentally sustainable effect of those herbicides needs more investigation to be confirmed. The aim of this work was to develop a chemical analysis method that enables identification of short-chain fatty acids (SCFA´s) and medium-chain fatty acids (MCFA´s) in a commercial f
