I Sverige bor ca 85% av befolkningen i stan, vilket har genererat stora mängder trafik i städerna. För att klara av den ökade trafiken, minska olägenheterna trafiken skapar och uppnå effektiv mobilitet erbjuder ITS, intelligenta transportsystem, och IoT, internet of things, applikationer olika digitala hjälpmedel för att lösa de begynnande problemen. Syftet för detta arbete har varit att ta redaAbout 85% of Sweden’s population live in a city, which have resulted in great amounts of traffic in the cities. To deal with the increasing traffic, decrease the disadvantages that the traffic creates and achieve effective mobility ITS, Intelligent transport system, and IoT, internet of things applications offer digital tools to solve the rising issues. The purpose of the study has been to find

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to investigate the impact of the prohibition to capitalise any development cost in SMEs, as required by IFRS for SMEs (section 18.14), on SMEs’ managers’ decisions on investments in development activities. Methodology: The methodology applied in this study is represented by an experimental approach structured in simulations built with Microsoft Excel. The emp

A search is presented for direct chargino production based on a disappearing-track signature using 20.3 fb(-1) of proton-proton collisions at root s = 8 TeV collected with the ATLAS experiment at the LHC. In anomaly-mediated supersymmetry breaking (AMSB) models, the lightest chargino is nearly mass degenerate with the lightest neutralino and its lifetime is long enough to be detected in the tracki

Searches for both resonant and nonresonant Higgs boson pair production are performed in the hh -> bb tau tau, gamma gamma WW* final states using 20.3 fb(-1) of pp collision data at a center-of-mass energy of 8 TeV recorded with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. No evidence of their production is observed and 95% confidence-level upper limits on the production cross sections are set.

The summary of the present master thesis can be outlined as the following: The international terrorism and the counter-terrorism have been one of the biggest issues and concerns of the international community over the last decades. The international terrorism aims at the very destruction of human rights, democracy and the rule of law. There is no question and the debate that the international terr

Buildings account for 40% of energy use and about one third of CO2 emissions in the EU. The huge energy saving potentials offered by the building sector has been targeted by a large number of policy instruments. To improve policy intervention in this area, more information on the extent to which the applied policy instruments are supporting the development and dissemination of different types of e

Over the past two decades, immigrant-receiving countries have been confronted with honour crimes. In a number of Western European countries, there have been cases of police failure to intervene in cases of honour crimes occurring in migrant communities. The authorities responses to honour crimes have consistently been inadequate, as they do not take victims of honour crimes seriously and fail to p

Purpose: This work examined the feasibility of flattening filter free (FFF) volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) for extreme hypofractionation of prostate cancer. The aim was to investigate the potential gain in treatment time per fraction for extreme hypofractionation of prostate cancer, while preserving or improving the treatment plan quality and radiation delivery quality. The impact of intr

This study examines whether the right to respect for private and family life, as enshrined in Article 8 of the European Convention of Human Rights, is equally enjoyed by transgender people. The focus of the research is on the European Court of Human Rights’ case law on gender identity, and special emphasis is placed on the principles of equality and non-discrimination. For the analysis, the Europ

Thesis purpose: The purpose of this study is to investigate the interdependencies within the process of partner selection in the fashion and design sector and the emanating criteria for finding the ideal co-branding partner in order to use co-branding as a strategic brand activation tool. Methodology: Multiple Case Study Theoretical perspective: Brand Building and Brand Activation, Relationship Ma

PET waste is the most visible environmental threat in the Maldives, a Small Island Developing State (SIDS). The thesis aims to propose the deposit refund system as a policy intervention, and evaluates the feasibility of introducing the system in the Maldives. In order to see how other SIDS have implemented the policy, the research uses policy evaluation framework to analyse the implementation mech

Under the growing influence of dominant discourses such as ecological modernisation and neo- liberalisation, proposed alternative conservation approaches focus more and more on efficiency. In the realm of biodiversity conservation, synthetic biology - the application of engineering to facilitate and accelerate the design or modification of genetic materials in living organisms – has emerged as an

The European energy transition entails opportunities to mitigate two of the EU’s most pressing current challenges: climate change and the energy crisis due to the dependency on fossil fuel imports. The EU has committed to limiting global warming to 2°C (preferably 1.5°C), compared to pre-industrial levels. In the context of the European Green Deal, the EU has set the objective to reach climate neu

This master's thesis, in collaboration with Comsys AB, examines the optimal size of a Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) for two services - energy shifting and constant power delivery across the four price areas SE1, SE2, SE3, and SE4 in Sweden. For energy shifting applications, the optimal storage capacities were found to be 20 MWh (2 MWh/MW) in SE1, SE2, and SE4. However, a 0.5 MWh/MW stor

This paper deals with the disputable issue of the existence of Malthus’ Preventive Check in Chinese population. With the help of a newly established historical database (Demographic Database of Colonial Taiwan, DDCT), which currently including the individual level data regarding to the socio-demographic backgrounds of the registered population in fifteen townships in North and Western Taiwan, we t

Frigoscandia Freezer AB have seen themselves as an entrepreneur company for a long time, but have lately begun to realise that they have to go against a more administrative era. With that insight they have begun to examine their enterprise in order to achieve this. The division Team Spare Parts has started a project with the intention of checking-up the inventory management, and improving it for t
