Fältandaktsboken i dess olika utgåvor har som syfte att vara en del av den militära själavård som Försvarsmakten tillhandahåller. Själavården är i sin tur en del av Försvarsmaktens personalvård. Där många andra myndigheter och företag har personalvårdsavdelningar som gör insatser för att uppmuntra sina medarbetare samt stödja dem i svåra stunder så är Försvarsmaktens personalvård dessutom inriktad

A nebuliser is a drug delivery device administrating medication in the form of a mist inhaled into the lungs, and used to treat respiratory diseases or disorders. Daily sterilisation of the nebuliser is required to avoid bacterial growth, and to maintain a high functionality. The aim of the project is to investigate what an optimal design for a portable sterilisation method of VMT nebulisers could

Environmental brand activism has become a strategy applied by many brands to engage and take a stand in the issue of climate change. The aim is to spur a debate and spark an interest and collective action among the consumers (Sarkar & Kotler, 2018).

In a rapidly urbanising world, the importance of rural towns and villages is often forgotten. Many people see more opportunities for employment, social life and their children’s future in the big city, leaving smaller, rural places empty and abandoned. This process of rapid urbanisation can in the long run result in the loss of many valuable villages, along with their local community and the tradi

Brain computer interfaces (BCI) provide ways for the brain to communicate directly with a computer, and are today primarily used as an aid for people with severe movement impairing disorders. In this study a BCI feature extraction method using a combination of spatial filtering and time-frequency (TF) analysis is developed. The features are then classified using a convolutional neural network. A f

Bakgrund: Trofoblasttumör är en tumör som utvecklas från trofoblastceller under en frisk eller patologisk graviditet. Trofoblastiska sjukdomar drabbar fertila, ofta yngre kvinnor. Onkologisjuksköterskans roll är avgörande för en god omvårdnad som grundas i god patientförståelse. Syfte: Att beskriva kvinnors erfarenheter av gynekologisk trofoblastsjukdom. Metod: En systematisk litteraturstudie med Background: Trophoblast tumor is a tumor that develops from trophoblast cells during a healthy or pathological pregnancy. Trophoblastic diseases affect fertile, often younger women. The role of the oncology nurse is crucial for good nursing that is based on good patient understanding. Aim: To describe women's experiences of gynecological trophoblast disease. Method: A systematic literature stu

On the 23rd of April 2019, TENA made a bold decision to launch a game-changing product by addressing a taboo subject publicly. The Silhouette Noir product is a unique adult diaper that looks and feels like elegant black underwear. Since it is the first black underwear on the market designed for the purpose of empowering women with incontinence, TENA wanted to tackle the dilemma publicly. Therefore

Den här studien har som syfte att utreda om Sveriges kraftvärme kan bidra till ökad flexibel elproduktion och i så fall på vilket sätt. Detta undersöks genom att kombinera analys av tekniska, marknads- och regelverksmässiga förutsättningar för Sverige. Detta gjordes med inriktning på kraftvärmeverk i Skåne, exklusive egenproducenter av el samt industrikraftvärmeverk. Dessutom analyseras erfarenhetThis master thesis aims to investigate if and how Swedish Combined Heat and Power (CHP) plants can increase its flexibility in electricity production. This is examined through a combining analysis of technical, market-oriented and regulatory conditions for Swedish and primarily Skåne CHP plants, excluding autoproducers and industrial plants. Further, Danish CHP experiences are analysed and applied

Differentiating between compounds and phrases can often be difficult. One of the main reasons for this is a compound and a phrase can have the same surface form. In this essay atypical noun- noun combination, which could be possible compounds are investigated. The research questions for this essay include if these combinations are compounds or phrases, what these noun-noun combinations look like a

Altering the fate of newborn cells in the hippocampus after status epilepticus Epilepsy is a common neurological disorder that is estimated to affect approximately 50 million people around the world according to the World Health Organization. This disorder is characterized by an increase in the predisposition to generate seizures, which are periods of hyperexcitable neuronal signaling. The treatm

Identification of high-biomass sites can lead to further studies on their ecology with the purpose to inform climate change mitigation decisions or give an indication to which sites need stronger protection. The purpose of this study was to, via a remotely sensed data set of tree biomass, identify the locations with the highest biomass in Sweden. As biomass varies across the extent of a stand or

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to investigate what factors, if any, are most prevalent in the valuation of small cap stocks, with limited ownership as compared to their fundamental values, where crowd based trading and insights do not necessarily prevail. Methodology: A deductive and comparative study realized in quantitative research based upon a sample selection of smaller companies. Find

Bakgrunden till denna studie kommer från min egen musikutbildning och de hinder jag stött på vilka främst varit av en psykologisk karaktär. Det antyder att musikern stöter på många dolda problem men också att vi har mycket dold potential som vi inte använder. Kognitiv psykologi handlar om mentala processer så som uppmärksamhet, minne, språkutnyttjande, iakttagelseförmåga, problemlösning, kreativitThe background to my study stems from my own music education and the struggles I have had which has almost always been of a psychological variety and that suggests that the musician has a lot of hidden struggles. Cognitive psychology is about mental processes such as; perception, judgment, memory, language use, problem solving, creativity and thinking which is used while making music. In this stud

Many agree that estimating portfolio risks has better estimation possibilities, than estimations on returns. Therefore investors attempts to construct better, more efficient riskmanaged portfolios by diversifying portfolios through factors rather than traditional asset classes. This entails very often in estimations of correlation matrices so complex it cannot be fully analyzed. Hierarchical clust

By observing a horse´s shape and movement you can get information about signs of disease. From a veterinary perspective the progression of new scientific methods and technological advances towards the field of equine motion and shape analysis may help with diagnosis, early detection of diseases, improving the chances of successful treatment and thereby offer overall benefits to the welfare of hors

A Reparative Justice Framework covering ten points of action formulated reparations as a regional development strategy, widening stakeholders to include development actors and focalising beneciaries to those disproportionally suering from post-slavery legacies. Jamaica is signatory to the claim, a

The valorization of lignin offers sustainable and renewable products and materials. For that reason lignin needs to be further analyzed although the various challenges this process implicates. The major obstacles in this field are lignin’s chemical heterogeneity, all the modifications in lignin’s chemical structure owing to its extraction method and purification process and the lack of appropriate
