Många företag idag är inte medvetna om hur mycket de skulle kunna spara om de hade ett väl fungerande materialhanteringssystem. Det finns idag inga standardlösningar för att optimera materialhanteringen hos företag som ger tillräcklig noggrannhet och som företag kan applicera till låga kostnader. Genom kartläggning av problemställningar inom svensk industri och handel avseende materialhantering f
Since the markets of multipacks are growing we have examined the multipacks out of the perspective of opinions, handling / distribution times and costs, and cost of producing multipack both in Sweden and the UK. Our aim has been to develop a research model that can be used for future studies of other multitask markets. The research started with a thorough field study of the Swedish and UK markets
The importance of E-commerce in the grocery and food retailing is growing and an increasing number of home delivery solutions are being studied. Some observers predict that the consumers will use e-commerce and home delivery services more and more in the future. However, these developments are affected by a number of problems, many of which are not completely understood. This thesis particularly f
Problem Statement: Make the order handling process as well as the purchasing process more efficient by constructing a loading application for transport of mixed goods in containers and trailers and to put that application in a wider packaging logistic perspective by analysing the effects of an implementation of this application. Purpose: To simplify the order handling process and the purchasi
Denna uppsats baseras på min översättning av utdrag ur romanen Los recuerdos del porvenir (1963) av Elena Garro och utgör mitt examensarbete för översättarprogrammet vid Lunds universitet år 1.

Analysen gjordes utifrån Judith Butlers queerteoretiska perspektiv och det tillfördes även ett intersektionellt perspektiv taget främst från Paulina De los Reyes och Diana Muli
A multi-pass Raman spectroscopy setup, consisting of a measuring cell built as a cavity, using two concave circular mirrors, has been constructed and optimized. As the light reflects between the mirrors, the Stokes Raman signal is enhanced with every pass through the cavity. The setup is tested by measurements of species in ambient laboratory air, N2 gas flowing through a transparent plastic tube,

This paper examines traditional financial variables, macroeconomic variables and a specific time period variable for the effects of the financial cr
The down scaling of metal-oxide-semiconductor based devices has been halted by the shortcomings of silicon. To enable further miniaturization new materials are required. The proposed replacements include compound III-V semiconductors and high-k oxides, the implementation of which has been difficult. This work investigates metal-oxide-semiconductor capacitors fabricated on InAs substrate. The oxide
Vid all skärande bearbetning bildas spånor som en biprodukt. Mängden spånor varierar beroende på hur arbetsstycket och slutprodukten ser ut. I vissa fall är det 70-80 % av utgångsmaterialet som omvandlas till spån under förädlingen. Skärspånen måste återvinnas på något sätt och det vanligaste sättet att återvinna materialet är att skicka tillbaka restprodukten till leverantören som smälter ner det

Corporate bankruptcy prediction has become a popular research topic since 1960s, and default risk management plays a more significant role among investors, debtors and the lenders. The Altman’s z-score model, the KMV model, and the Naïve model are well-known and widely used bankruptcy prediction models. This paper focuses on examining the bankruptcy prediction accuracy of these three models in the
This paper investigates the accuracy of three different methods that are used to perform a relative valuation. I also study the valuation accuracy of the three most widely used multiples used within these methods, the enterprise value to EBITDA (EV/EBITDA), the forward-looking price per share to earnings per share (P/EPS1), and the price-book (P/B). In addition, the difference between industries r
Denna uppsats syftar till att undersöka rättsreglerna gällande fel i materiella uppdragsavtal, samt hur uppdragstagarens felansvar ter sig och vad detta omfattar.
