The Hanson Larson evolution model assumes that wave height grows or decays from an initial condition towards an equilibrium wave height through a simple exponential growth. The model uses wind input data, fetch length and depth measurements. Using this input parameters, it both determines the wave height and period values, thus predicts wave climate. The model is developed using deep water conditi

I en tid där befolkningen ökar och medellivslängden blir äldre förändras villkoren för vården. Den största kostnaden inom svensk vård idag är relaterade till äldre människor och fallskador. I den här uppsatsen presenteras en framtagen lösning som detekterar fall och sparar information om vad som händer under ett fall. Ett fall i sig självt är väldigt svårt att stoppa, men det finns faktorer runt m

Denna uppsats fokuserar på den nya termen ”klickjournalistik” och Facebook-inlägg publicerade av Dagens Nyheter samt Aftonbladet. Studien analyserar populära inlägg publicerade utav de två tidningarna och jämför likheter och skillnader mellan dem med referenser till teorier inom bl.a. masskommunikation. Frågeställningarna lyder: 1) Vilka likheter och skillnader finns det mellan de Facebook-inlägg

The literature finds that a successful relationship betw

Tillsyn av mindre hästgårdar Författare: Madeleine Holm Sjöbo kommun är en attraktiv kommun för hästhållare eftersom de sandiga markerna erbjuder möjligheten till torra beteshagar året runt. Kommunen har under 2015 och 2016 tagit ett krafttag när det gäller att genomföra tillsynsbesök på de mindre hästgårdarna. Tillsyn innebär att miljöinspektörer från kommunen åker ut på besök till gårdarna och

Background: Increasing evidence suggests a link between type 1 diabetes (T1D) and intake of gluten, but no controlled trials have examined whether a gluten-free diet (GFD) has positive effects on glycemic control in children with T1D. Methods: We conducted a non-randomized feasibility study. Twenty-three children with newly diagnosed T1D were included and either followed a GFD (n = 14) or a normal

Reports and studies repeatedly indicate that foreign languages other than English are facing major challenges in European educational systems (European Commission, 2012). While young learners’ motivation to learn a second foreign language (SFL) is often reported to be low (Tholin & Lindqvist, 2009), studies have only recently started to take emotional factors into account in order to better un

Previous research has shown that sustainable improvements need incentives to carry them through. An assumption is that it may be easier to incorporatesustainable thinking in an organization if the organization understandswhich actions it is that are having a positive effect on sustainability andon tangible costs. This paper aims to highlight the synergy effects thatoccur in the intersection betwee
