Datorer används allt oftare i undervisningssammanhang. En stor styrka ligger i möjligheten att på ett enkelt sätt kunna genomföra avancerade beräkningar och visualisera komplexa fenomen. VisCon är ett program som har utvecklats för att underlätta förståelsen av vad som händer i en jord när man belastar den med en byggnad eller en anläggning. Det här är en viktig kunskap för att undvika skador på bWhen a ground surface is subjected to a load an increased level of stress will occur in the soil underneath. As soil material has a limited permeability, an increased stress will initially result in an excess pore water pressure. However, as time passes the water will flow and the pore water pressure will even out. The relation between the total stress, the excess pore water pressure and the effec

In recent years, history of knowledge has been established as a new theoretical field in the study of history. An important perspective in this field is the theory of circulation of knowledge, according to which knowledge should be studied through its movement between different spheres in society – movement that, furthermore, contributes to changing this knowledge. A promising line of inquiry in t

5G New Radio is the next generation of mobile networks and it comes with promises of ultra-high speeds, ultra-high reliability and ultra-low latency. This has posed a challenge for the engineers entrusted with the task of finding solutions which could fulfil the specification, and as a result, some promising areas have received increased attention in recent years. Signal processing techniques like

Problem discussion: To be competitive in a changeable environment, as the video surveillance market, in a time when the company and the market grow with almost 40% yearly, the sales organization must be well trimmed and effective. Knowledge about customers’ needs and what makes success are essential parts of the progress. Sales Product Management (Sales PM) is a new group at Axis with the main tas

Economic sanctions - the exercise of pressure by one international actor to produce a change in the political behaviour of another international actor - are instruments used in the exercise of foreign policy. Due to the perceived ineffectiveness of traditional economic sanctions, such as trade embargoes, a new type of sanctions has emerged. Unlike economic sanctions in the traditional sense, these

This master thesis has been conducted to investigate why and how Plastal in Arendal (PAGO), Sweden have implemented RFID technology. RFID technology has become very popular in recent years (1). It is said to have potential to increase the level of automation (2), reduce the labor levels and to improve the supply chain in areas such as inventory, visibility etc. (3) (see chapter 1.2.1 for more exa

Varje år omsätts 900 miljarder kronor i offentliga upphandlingar i Sverige. Dessvärre är det inte endast seriösa leverantörer som försöker vinna dessa kontrakt. På senare år har man i allt större utsträckning uppmärksammat att oseriösa och kriminella entreprenörer också konkurrerar på den offentliga marknaden. Problemet har beskrivits som systemhotande. Upphandlande myndigheter har beskrivits soEvery year, 900 billion SEK is spent on public procurement contracts. Un-fortunately, it is not only serious suppliers which try to win these contracts. In recent years, attention has been drawn to criminal entrepreneurs who compete on the public market. The problem has been described as a threat to the system. Procuring organizations have been described as central to preventing crim-inal entrep

In this thesis a system for tracking the fingers of a user using sound waves is developed. The proposed solution is to attach a small speaker to each finger and then have a number of microphones placed ad hoc around a computer monitor listening to the speakers. The system should then be able to track the positions of the fingers so that the coordinates can be mapped to the computer monitor and be

Until now we still depend on oil and natural gas to supply us with fuels and other chemicals as a foundation to our economic advance. The global population is expected to reach 9 billion by 2050. With increasing population, the oil resource consumption will also increase, and an alternative source must be found and developed to supply us with chemicals and fuel needed for our economical advances,

In addition to being a key criterion of the sustainable development proviso, for business, the integration of social- and ecological considerations into decision-making is of growing importance for minimising future environmentally-related risk and associated economic costs, as well as gaining a share in growing markets favouring products and companies focusing upon social responsibility and ecolo

This master thesis has been made on behalf of Sony Ericsson in co-operation with Machine Design at Lund Institute of Technology. The background is a need within Sony Ericsson to test moulded plastic parts before they are assembled together to a phone. There are today various specified tests that are made on every single phone before it is launched, but they are all made on complete assembled phone

Sweden’s Art and Music Schools offer courses and activities after the school day. Besides that, Art and Music Schools also work in collaboration with compulsory schools, including training schools and special schools. The investigation report on Art and Music Schools, part of the national policy process, focuses on the ‘after school’ parts of Art and Music Schools, leaving the other parts untouche

In the 2011 census of India, more than 2500 settlements have been newly inducted into the category of ‘census towns’ – the lowest size-class of urban settlements in India. This is a staggering figure in light of the observation that a comparable number constituted the total number of all urban settlements recorded since 1900. Furthermore, it has been revealed through aerial images, that a vast maj

Candida albicans is a commensal fungus that causes systemic infections in immunosuppressed patients. In order to deal with the changing environment during commensalism or infection, C. albicans must reprogram its proteome. Characterizing the stress-induced changes in the proteome that C. albicans uses to survive should be very useful in the development of new antifungal drugs. We studied the C. al

Intellectual property rights (IPRs) represent a key concern for researchers and industry in basically all (high-tech) sectors. IPRs regularly figure prominently in scientific journals and at scientific conferences and lead to dedicated workshops to increase the awareness and “IPR savviness” of scientists. In 2015, Biotechnology Journal published a report from an expert meeting on “Synthetic Biolog

This is a proposal to organize a session.Description:The rapid development of the technological progress is constantly reshaping the organization of the firm, raising important labour law issues.One of the red treads of this phenomenon is the shifting of the focus from the “activity” performed by the worker, to the “result” obtained.In the past it was not always possible to measure the output prod

This thesis work concerns studies of two rare-earth-ions, praseodymium (Pr3+) and europium (Eu3+), doped into a yttrium orthosilicate (Y2SiO5) crystal for applications in quantum computing. The nuclear spin levels of these ions can have very long coherence times, up to several hours. Coherence can also be effectively transferred between the optical and hyperfine levels. These systems, therefore, h

Near surface geophysics are gaining widespread use in major infrastructure projects with respect to geotechnical and engineering applications. The development of data acquisition, processing tools and interpretation methods have optimized survey production, reduced logistics costs and increase results reliability of seismic surveys during the last decades. However, the use of geophysical methods u
