The year of 2020 was marked with an unprecedented outbreak of Covid-19 virus and a global pandemic. Not all businesses across various industries have been equally affected. This thesis investigated the difference in return of industries with dissimilar exposure to the Covid-19 pandemic under the lockdown and social distance intervention, and how this difference has evolved during 2020. We found ev

This thesis work was done in collaboration with Knowit Experience in Malmö. Its main goal was to evaluate and develop an authentication module for the company’s e-commerce platform. Semi-structured interviews were held with software developers at the company to better understand their needs. Based around these needs an evaluation regarding price and usability was conducted for the authentication

Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka hur heteronormativitet påverkar socialt arbete med våld i nära relationer bland samkönade par, baserat på socialarbetares utsagor. Vi hittade lite forskningen inom detta område, majoriteten av forskningen vi hittade var internationell. Vi ville utforska hur våld i nära relationer karaktäriseras hos samkönade par. Vi ville också utforska hur heteronormativiThe aim of this study was to explore how heteronormativity influences social work regarding domestic violence in same-sex couples, based off the experiences of social workers. The research we found regarding this subject was limited, especially in Sweden. We wanted to explore the characteristics of domestic violence within same-sex couples. We also wanted to explore how heteronormativity is expres

Denna uppsats undersöker fem centrala aktörer kring händelserna mellan statskupp och antagandet av en ny regeringsform i Sverige 1809. I traditionell historieskrivning, främst förespråkad av Fredrik Lagerroth, har dessa händelser beskrivits som en revolution. Syftet med denna uppsats relaterar till forskningsproblemet och motsatsförhållandet mellan Sveriges ”revolution” 1809 och andra revolutionerThis study examines five key actors in the events between the coup and the adoption of a new constitution in Sweden in 1809. In traditional historiography, mainly advocated by Fredrik Lagerroth, these events has been described as a revolution. The purpose of this study relates to the research problem and understanding of Sweden's "revolution" in 1809 and other revolutions such as the

The purpose was also to find out how the work preparation should have been performed, to not miss these deviations. The goal for this study was to present different suggestions for how the work preparation should have been performed

Användandet av big data bland näringsidkare fortsätter öka exponentiellt vilket medför möjligheter men även flera risker. Datainsamling har infunnit sig centralt i gemene affärsmodell och data har beskrivits som den nya oljan. Andra sidan av myntet är att konsumenter har svårt att närvara online utan att lämna efter sig ett spår av data. Data som näringsidkare kan an- vända till att profilera anvä

Data-driven optimering en succé för skärande bearbetning Optimeringsmetod från maskininlärning mycket lovande vid användning för komplexa processer inom skärande bearbetning En otrolig mängd av industriell tillverkning idag förlitar sig på ett till synes enkelt koncept, att forma metall genom svarvning eller fräsning. Skärande bearbetning letar sin väg in i många industrier och alla sätt att ökThe purpose of this study was to investigate the applicability of data-driven experimental design for the optimization of a hard coating for cutting tools in metal machining. The complexity of metal machining leads to difficulty in theoretically modeling and understanding the interactions and correlations between parameters and performance. Because of this and the importance of incremental perform

This study aims to establish the most effective way of resolving unfair dismissal disputes based on experience in several countries and international law. First, the analysis of the scope and content of protection of employees against unfair dismissals in international law is presented. The legal basis is examined based on different international human rights instruments, ILO Conventions, European

En mobilapplikation för volontärarbete i Sverige har möjlighet att förenkla för volontärer, volontärorganisationer samt kan bidra till ett bättre samhälle i helhet.This project investigates the needs of different stakeholders regarding volunteer work in Sweden as well as implementing a prototype for a volunteer app. The main purpose is to design, create and test a mobile application prototype primarily focused on the end users, the volunteers. This is done by accumulating a lot of data and information using a survey that reached out to 111 volunteers and non

This report describes a product development process of a carrier for mobile phones. The product development process is based on the description in Ulrich and Eppinger [1]. Including what steps should be followed to achieve a final product that meet decided requirements. The work is performed in cooperation with the company Medotemic AB. Through an application, the mobile phone can measure the user

Purpose: This paper studies the impact of corporate social responsibility on cost stickiness, as well as showing additional evidence of stickiness among European firms. Methodology: OLS regression and fixed effects model. Theoretical perspectives: The theoretical part of the study describe cost behavior, cost stickiness and corporate social responsibility from a stakeholder perspective. Empiri

Forest ecosystems provide a wide range of services necessary for maintaining environmental health and human well-being. Ecosystem models help inform how various management strategies respond in different regions to changing climate conditions. They contribute to mitigation and adaptation policy measures and support private forest owners in deciding ideal practices to implement. The complex nature

The purpose of this study was to explore how hospital social workers have experienced that the recently established professional certification has affected their working situation and their status within health care. In my study i used semi-structured interviews with five hospital social workers from one clinic. I then used thematic analysis to identify five themes which were: ”Social workers in a

The aim of this study was to examine counselors' emotional management in their work with patients who have been exposed to trauma during their life. The chosen method to implement this study was through qualitative semi-structured interviews with six counselors who are currently working or have experience of working in adult psychiatry. Three different theories were used to analyze the results

Kvantelektrodynamik beskriver den elektromagnetiska kraften mellan elektroner och protoner, och är en av fysikens mest lyckade teorier. Till skillnad från elektroner, så är protoner inte fundamentala partiklar, utan de är uppbyggda av mindre partiklar som kallas för kvarkar. Kvarkarna inuti protonen binds inte ihop av den elektromagnetiska kraften, utan istället genom en annan kraft som kallas föWe use lattice QCD data to perform a fit of the pion and kaon mass and decay constant to next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) in three-flavor Chiral Perturbation Theory (ChPT). To improve our fits, we make use of finite volume corrections at both one- and two-loop order. This turns out to provide a small but noticeable improvement of our fits. Our fits see a significant improvement with the inclus

Low-Density Parity-Check (LDPC) codes are one of the most popular codes used in nowadays’ communication due to their high coding efficiency at low decoding complexity. With these characteristics, LDPC codes are suitable for high-speed information transmission systems. The widely used decoding algorithm for LDPC codes is Belief Propagation (BP) decoding with which the performance of LDPC codes can

Food Waste is a global issue concerning the environment, resources, social justice and economy. Despite being so pressing, around one-third of food produced is discarded worldwide. Meanwhile, food waste is incredibly complicated, requiring collaborations of all stakeholders and various innovations. Too Good To Go (TGTG) utilizes technology to bridge consumers and food business and save food waste

Abstrakt. Bakgrund: Genom Platt reformen och barnkonventionen samt NOBABs föreskrifter har nu barnet rätt till att ha sin förälder hos sig på sjukhuset dygnet runt, från att det tidigare inte var tillåtet för en förälder att vara hos sitt barn. Genom att involvera hela familjen utifrån ett familjecentrerat perspektiv stärks barnets trygghet och välbefinnande. Barn i olika åldrar har olika behov a
