This study investigates if and how equity-based crowdfunding can benefit a start-up’s corporate brand building process. Building the corporate brand can play a significant role for the company’s establishment in the market. Although equity-based crowdfunding has grown exponentially in the Nordics, it has not been covered enough in corporate brand building literature. The scope of this research was

In mining for extraction of metals residues are often produced. A frequently produced residue is tailings, which potentially contains high amount of metals, soluble salts and acids. Therefore, it is often necessary to deposit, the tailings in stable impoundments, namely tailings dams, if not all tailings produced is used as backfill in mines. In the construction of the tailings dam in Garpenberg,

Konceptet city branding har växt fram som ett strategiskt verktyg i syfte att uppnå positiva uppfattningar av en stad bland invånarna samt attrahera de som vill bosätta sig på, investera i eller besöka platsen. Evenemang och festivaler har visat sig vara populära strategier ämnade att skapa mervärde i värdstadens samhälls- skikt, som bidrar till det varumärke och den image som önskas. Malmö är enThe concept of city branding has emerged as a strategic tool in order to achieve positive perceptions of a city among residents and to attract those who want to live, invest or visit the location. Events and festivals have proven popular strate- gies in order to create added value in all societal aspects of the host-city, contrib- uting to the brand and image as desired. Malmö is a multidimensiona

The purpose of this study was to further investigate whether the national funda-mental values have been implemented in the different municipalities’ goals for the elderly care and how this was followed-up and evaluated, in order to achieve a deepened knowledge of how the different municipalities worked with their own quality assurance within this particular field of practice. In order to answer ou

När den enskilda överklagar ett förvaltningsbeslut står den ofta som ensam motpart i rätten mot myndighetens processjurister. För att den enskilde ska kunna ta till vara på sin rätt och obalansen inte ska bli oskäligt stor mellan parterna har domaren lagstadgade möjligheter att påverka processen så att den enskildes rätt tas tillvara. Denna uppsatsens syfte är att undersöka om en sådan ordning kan

Virusinfektioner har utan tvekan blivit det största hälsoproblemet i världen. I skrivande stund når antalet COVID-19 infektioner i världen upp emot 151 800 000 vilket gör att behovet av vacciner och antivirala läkemedel är viktigare nu än någonsin tidigare. Influensa A är ytligare ett virus som orsakar överdödlighet, trotts att många klarar sig lindrigt vid infektion. För att kunna förhindra ellerWith viral infections becoming an ever-increasing health problem in the world, the study of viral proteins is a cornerstone for understanding and preventing future pandemics. The following work shows the purification and structural characterization of the Influenza A M2 proton channel through solid-state NMR (ssNMR). Despite previously published structures of the M2 proton channel, the method of p

Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka hur psykoterapeuter upplever att de skapar allians med barn i åldern 6–12 år, samt med deras vårdnadshavare. Metoden som användes var en kvalitativ tematisk analys och semi-strukturerade intervjuer genomfördes med sex psykoterapeuter från två olika delar av Sverige. Psykoterapeuterna var antingen anställda vid BUP eller Första Linjen. Fynden av studien visThe purpose of this study was to examine how psychotherapists view and how they create alliances with children who are of the age group 6-12 years old, and with their legal guardians. The chosen method was that of a qualitative thematic analysis, using semi-structured interviews with six different psychotherapists from two different parts of Sweden. The psychotherapists were all employed at either

In majority of academic literature related to BDSM (bondage-discipline, dominance-submission, and sadism-masochism) the focus is often centred on men and their experiences within the community. The limited focus on women and their motivations to engage in BDSM dynamics has been a driving force in this thesis. Therefore, this research aims to address this gap and explore female BDSM practitioners&#

Geographical Information Systems are a powerful tool for the processing of geographical data and can be used to implement predictive modelling for the purpose of archaeological research. The study presented here proposes a predictive model based on multi-criteria evaluation, and aims at analysing the parameters of known Upper Palaeolithic decorated caves in the Périgord noir, in southwest France.

En ny början för Skånes rikkärr Ibland när du går ute på den skånska myllan en dag i juni kan du träffa på ett sankt område med påtagligt mosstäcke och vackra orkidéer; då har du vandrat in i ett rikkärr och med tanke på orkidéerna så rör det sig med största sannolikhet om ett extremrikkärr. Vad är då ett rikkärr och varför behöver vi börja arbeta hårt med att bevara denna något gäckande naturtypRich fens contribute with numerous ecosystem services, such as the highest biodiversity found among wetlands, water purification, carbon sequestration, hydrological services, recreational and educational services are all part of services provided from rich fens. Drainage and land-use change has severely damaged or destroyed these services in many regions of Europe and Sweden; restoration plans are

Agil organisering blir allt vanligare i arbetslivet och bland organisationer i varierade branscher i takt med ökad tilltro till och användning av informations- och kommunikationsteknologi. Dock saknas kunskap om hur medarbetarna upplever den agila organisationsstrukturen. Syftet med denna intervjustudie var att bidra med ny, fördjupad kunskap om hur agil organisationsstruktur upplevs genom att belAgile principles are increasingly adopted by organizations in various industries as information and communication technologies evolve.

Consider a simple finite graph and its nodes to represent identical water barrels (containing different amounts of water) on a level plane. Each edge corresponds to a (locked, water-filled) pipe connecting two barrels below the plane. We fix one node v and consider the optimization problem relating to the maximum value to which the level in v can be raised without pumps, i.e. by opening/closing pi

This contribution presents a modeling and optimization method for multi-column counter-current purification (MCSGP) processes. The model is based on conventional column models and by using the symmetric and cyclic steady state characteristics of the process a single column analog model was developed. The model have been used for dynamic optimization of the MCSGP process. The optimization was based

The relay autotuner for PID control is based on the simple idea of investigating process dynamics by the oscillation obtained when the PID controller is replaced by a relay unction. In this paper an asymmetric relay function is used, which provides an equation for the static gain of the process. A method to find the normalized time delay is proposed and the benefits of this is discussed. Ways to f
