Machine control with GPS allows machinists to operate using a digital model as reference instead of the traditionally used methods. This leads to other duties and a different flow at the worksite. The purpose of this study is to examine how various professions have changed with the development of machine controlled equipment and also how the work methods can be optimized. A series of interviews ha

This study makes a numeric and visual comparison of two different multibeam echo sounding (MBES) surveys performed at the exact same location, in an effort to establish how reliable and comparable the vertical depth measurements are. The horizontal position uncertainty is not issued in this study. The analysis was performed on data delivered by two survey contractors, The Norwegian Coastal Admini

Bakterier stjäler det mänskliga proteinet plasminogen och utnyttjar det till sin fördel Människokroppen använder särskilda sätt för att överleva och skydda sig mot yttre hot, som bakterier. Bakterier har i samma takt utvecklat mekanismer för att stjäla kroppens proteiner och på så sätt utnyttja människans egna försvarsmekanismer för att ta sig in, sprida sig, och göra kroppen sjuk. Pseudomonas ae

The Malmo Central Station Starbucks opened in 2012 as one of the first Starbucks shops in Sweden. The shop works as a transient location, skillfully designed around its train station location and historical aesthetic. It here functions as one of Starbucks’s first forays into coffee- and fika-minded Sweden, where it must balance appealing to Swedish customers who are new to the brand and internatio

Klimatet under Kvartärperioden har dominerats av återkommande istider, då bl.a. Skandinavien och Sverige varit täckt av inlandsis. Vid analysen av långsiktig säkerhet för det planerade förvaret av använt kärnbränsle, i Sverige, behöver tider på upp till en miljon år beaktas. Under denna mycket långa tid förväntas nya nedisningar komma och därför utförs ett forskningsprogram på Grönland för att ökaDuring the Quaternary period, the climate has been dominated by glacial cycles resulting in periodic ice sheet coverage over Scandinavia and Sweden. In the scenarios for future climate development used in the assessment of long-term safety for planned repository of spent nuclear fuel, the possibility of future glaciations need to be considered. The present study is part of a larger hydrological st

This master thesis aimed to evaluate the possibilities of inhibition of Lactobacillus plantarum 299v metabolism of malate by introduction of lactic acid in ProViva apple drinks. The malate metabolism of L. plantarum have been found to promote an overproduction of carbon dioxide in ProViva apple drinks and thereby the metabolism was tried to be inhibited. The experiment included three different con

This thesis explores the extent to which international human rights law and international labour law place obligations on States to protect migrant workers’ fundamental rights, especially their rights to social security. More importantly, this thesis examines intra-ASEAN migrant workers’ accesses to the social security benefits, as defined by the ILO Social Security (Minimum Standards) Convention,

With a steady development of technology, the use of Model Predictive Control (MPC) has become more and more popular since the computation time has gone down. With this increase, a need for determining which MPC algorithm is good for solving a certain type of MPC problem has occurred which would facilitate the choice of algorithm and also could increase the performance. One of the determining aspec

Background: Risky sexual behaviours have been shown to increase among HIV positive people. Little is still known about the risky sexual behaviours of ART naive as there is more focus on patients already enrolled on ART. This study explores potential behavioral disinhibition among patients enrolled on ART in comparison to patients not yet enrolled on ART and assesses the impact of ART on risky sexu

The Japanese language has a complex system containing four different scripts. Through the combined usage of these scripts into something sometimes referred to as interlinear glossing, it is possible for the writer to express a wide range of poetic styles in a way that is quite unique to the Japanese language. Ranging from metonymical relations between words and sentences, to synecdoche, word play

‘Smiling in your brother’s face is an act of charity’; said prophet Muhammad (ALLAH’s peace and blessings be with him). Amelogenin (Amg) is one of the most important proteins that are responsible for perfect tooth formation giving us that beautiful smile. Amelogenin has multifunctional characteristics like wound healing, cells proliferation induction, anti-inflammatory, anti-infectious and signal

In the wake of the autonomy reform, most Swedish universities have gone from a dualistic management system, with both collegial governance and chain of command, to limiting collegial governance in favour of increased chain of command. This thesis examines how teachers at Malmö University, a university that has shifted towards increased chain of command after the reform, consider how the organizati

Investigating motivation to create a social enterprise is a continuing concern within entrepreneurship which was expressed in previous studies. Therefore, the purpose of this thesis is to explore the antecedents of social entrepreneurial motivation and the trigger events that motivated the social entrepreneur to start a social enterprise. The life story method guided in the data collection and ana

Aims/objectives: The study’s aim was to assess the association between different levels of leisure time physical activity (LTPA) and the risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and assess the association between socio-economic status (SES) and distribution of LTPA. Methods: The study was based on the Malmo Diet and Cancer Study cohort that included participants aged 44-74 years at enrolment. Demog

Hållbarhet får en allt större plats i den globala debatten, och byggbranschen är en av de aktörer som har störst påverkan på miljön. Byggprocessen ger upphov till stora mängder avfall och branschen har börjat ta sitt ansvar. Fokus har hittills legat på de stora fraktionerna och mycket forskning har presenterats kring återvinning av t.ex. betong och metall som utgör en stor andel av avfallet. KostnSustainability is getting more and more attention in the global debate, and construction is one of the sectors with the biggest impact on the environment. The construction process creates vast amounts of waste every year but the sector has started to take responsibility for the problems it creates. Up until now the focus has been on the big fractions, such as concrete and metals, which make out th

År 2006 var året då fler människor bodde i städer än på landsbygden och år 2030 uppskattas 5 miljarder människor bo i en urban miljö. Att lösa boendesituationen för de som flyttar till städer är ett globalt problem som kommer bli viktigare än någonsin tidigare att lösa. (Montgomery, 2014) Bostadsbyggandet i Sverige har de senaste åren ökat, men befolkningen ökar i ännu högre takt vilket gör att bo2006 was the year when more people lived in cities than in rural areas and by 2030 approximately 5 billion people will be living in an urban environment. Solving the housing situation of those who move to cities is a global problem that will become more important than ever to solve. (Montgomery, 2014) Housing construction in Sweden has increased in recent years, but the population is increasing at

På Siciliens östkust strax söder om Syrakusa, ligger ett långsmalt naturområde som följer kusten längs halvön Maddalenas sydspets ut till udden Capo Murro di Porco. Det är en obebyggd kustremsa sånär som på en fyrbyggnad med två angränsande stenhus. Naturen domineras av det klippiga landskapet och de tre byggnaderna som kommit att smälta in i omgivningen. I detta arbete, som är en fallstudie som Capo Murro di Porco is situated in a narrow natural area that runs along the coast of the peninsula of Maddalena, just south of Syracuse on the east coast of Sicily. It is an area of stunning nature with dramatic topography, steep cliff sides and sparse vegetation. On the very line marking the transition from low vegetation to bare rock on the horn of the peninsula, a lighthouse and two rugged low
