Behind Boundary Management: a look into Self-leadership and Autonomy when Working from Home

Working from home, previously framed as the same concept as teleworking, is a practice that had already increased in the past decades, but the current health crisis (SARS-2 COVID19) exacerbated the number of home workers all of a sudden (Popovici & Lavinia, 2020). Thus, many workers were forced to manage the boundaries between work and home without experience nor the physical boundary that is

The study takes a closer look at the different approaches that a juristic person have at their disposal, one of them being the law called the Land Acquisition Act. The juristic or physical person can apply for an acqu

Lökgrodan i Frihult, Skåne - en statusuppdatering med fokus på chytridiomykos

Amphibians are globally among the most endangered taxonomic groups of vertebrates. This is partly due to the chytrid fungus Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd), which causes the disease chytridiomycosis, that have led to eradication of more than 90 species of amphibians worldwide. The spadefoot toad (Pelobates fuscus) is one of the Swedish red listed species (VU) that are at risk of being affecte

The purpose of this investigation is to look closer on the value-tension between the European Union and the Chinese Communist Party regarding which values are present in the official policies of these entities and how these values are projec

Abnormality detection in diagnostics data from network cameras

När mjukvara uppdateras och installeras på Axis kameror är det viktigt att hålla koll på om den nya mjukvaran orsakat förändringar i kamerornas prestanda. Förändringarna kan sedan tolkas av en människa, som kan säga om det är en förbättring eller försämring. Genom att ständigt hålla uppsikt över olika metriker (olika prestandamått) hos kamerorna finns möjligheten att upptäcka förändringar som uppsFor data-driven companies, there is a need to efficiently navigate through big quantities of collected data. In our case; detecting changes in the behaviour of data. We have investigated whether machine learning could be applied to automate the process of finding abnormal behaviour (anomalies) in collected data. Some simpler methods were also investigated and compared to the results of machine lea

TRANSFORMING THE ‘80s: Architectural and programmatic strategies for transformation of ‘80s office buildings into housing

The covid pandemic has put light on a trend of office buildings experiencing more vacancy than ever before, given our working habits have been forced to shift from occurring predominantly in an office to mainly being pursued from our private homes. This project foresees a future where working remotely has become the new normal and proposes a residential program in an existing office structure, giv

Feasibility of Enhanced Geothermal Systems in the Precambrian crystalline basement in SW Scania, Sweden

Sverige står i dagsläget inför en brådskande energiomställning. Fossila bränsle skall fasas ut till 2045, landets kärnkraftsproduktion reduceras stadigt och samtidigt ökar energibehovet i takt med landets elektrifiering. Sverige har dock potential att miljövänligt och självständigt täcka upp för dessa avkall. Tilläget till vind- och solenergi heter Enhanced Geothermal Systems (EGS). EGS-tekniken mThe ability to evaluate the geothermal potential at a depth of five to six kilometres in the crystalline bedrock is crucial for the EGS-technology to be utilized in the future. This work focuses primarily on presenting expected geological conditions at great depths in southwestern Scania. The study is based on information from E.ON’s deep drilling FFC-1 in Malmö and data and investigations of the

Integrating Virtual Operations Support Teams (VOSTs) into domestic crisis and disaster management structures – An exploratory study of challenges and requirements for improvement

Social media (SM) use in crisis and disaster management (CDM) is resource-intensive and can overwhelm emergency management authorities (EMAs). Digital voluntarism offers SM capacities for EMAs. A significant approach to reap benefits from digital voluntarism for domestic CDM is introducing Virtual Operations Support Teams (VOSTs). While VOSTs have been proven valuable in increasing capacities, the

Theory: Positioning, Disruption, Blue Ocean Strategy, New Category Creation Methodology: This paper uses a qualitative and exploratory research method. Primary data on the positioning of tobacco-free snus as a disruptive new category in the market was gathered through two semi-structured int

Does polypyrrole assist in the formation of catalytic ZnO nanoparticle silk fibers in the absence of light?

Syftet med detta arbete var att testa hypotesen att zinkoxid tillsammans med en polymer (en stor molekyl bestående utav många upprepade, mindre molekyler) av pyrrol på silkesfiber kan verka katalytiskt, det vill säga sänka aktiveringsenergin för en viss eller vissa reaktioner utan att själv konsumeras. Med andra ord så var målet att producera hybridsilkesfiber som är katalytiska utan ljus. Silke äIn this report, we wish to test the hypothesis that zinc oxide (ZnO), usually only catalytic in the presence of light, can become catalytic when combined with polypyrrole and silk fiber in the absence of light. To template the synthesis of zinc oxide (sonication) and polypyrrole (oxidative polymerisation), we used four different silk fibers (Mulberry, Eri, Muga, and Tasar silks). We assessed the i

Study of Monitoring Circuitry for Ageing in FPGAs

Along with the down-scaling of CMOS technology, ageing has become one of the most important reliability challenges in CMOS devices. Ageing is defined as degradation in certain device characteristics such as delay, which can result in failure. Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) are typically the first among the CMOS devices to adopt the latest technology. It is, therefore, crucial to tackle age
