Evaluating reservoirs with alternating sequences of sand and shale meet the challenge of quantifying the effect from clay minerals. The clay minerals have an impact on logging tools and the resulting data. When not considering the effects, a formation evaluation will present incorrect results on e.g. porosity and water saturation leading to management decisions based on poor quality interpretation
This study takes an in-depth look at sustainable procurement criteria used in the procurement of indirect services. A gap is identified in the literature analysis in the knowledge of sustainable procurement strategies and practice methods for the purchase of services and indirect spend categories. The author uses a case study method to investigate how sustainable procurement of indirect services i
The Berkeley Innovation Index (BII) is a tool developed for assessment of individual innovation capability. The index is based on responses to a survey that constitutes of questions linked to domain abilities, i.e., sub-traits, that are hypothesized to govern an individual's overall innovation ability. The underlying algorithm for the BII produces a score representing the test-takers' prof
The western culture has long been on the world stage in design, business, and cultural activities, while the beautiful Chinese historical culture is often forgotten. Culture communication and crosscultural design are fascinating fields. Combining design and business thinking is also an area that is worth to be researched. There are not many projects that have studied “cross-cultural” design with a
Post-humanistiska teorier ifrågasätter det med mänskligheten centraliserade perspektiv med vilket vi människor lever och upplever, beskriver och utformar världen. I ett posthumanistiskt perspektiv är natur kultur. Jord och djur är mer än resurser. Alla arter, och alla individer inom alla arter, är aktörer och subjekt. Modern djurhållning är en ofta onaturlig, ibland brutalt oetisk, konstruktion i
Denna uppsats har, utifrån kyrkoherden Sthen Jacobsens krönika "Den Nordiske Kriigs Krønicke", undersökt den sydsvenska och skånska åsiktsbilden på det Skånska kriget. Den har undersökt vad Jacobsen skrivit om krigets våldsamheter mot ickestridande, möjligt sidotagande mellan de danska och de svenska sidorna och Jacobsens syn på snapphanarna. Resultatet blev att en allmängiltig åsiktsbil
As the address space of IPv4 is being depleted with the development of IoT (Internet Of Things), there is an increasing need for permanent transition to the IPv6 protocol as soon as possible. Nowadays, many 3GPP (3rd Generation Partnership Project) Networks have implemented or will implement IPv6 in the near future for Internet access. These networks will also use NDP (Neighbor Discovery Protocol)
This thesis provides strong evidence that acoustic streaming is suppressed when using liquids of inhomogeneous density and compressibility in acoustophoresis. Manipulation of extremely small particles in acoustophoresis is something that usually is impaired by acoustic streaming. The project was divided into three aims. Firstly, a particle tracking software (GDPT) was evaluated using 3 μm polystyr
Starting in 1980, this study explores the development of gender equality in China through an intersectionality theory and perspective. In this thesis, three definitions of gender equality are used to examine China’s gender equality development. The intersectional theory is applied as a way of highlighting the complexities of society and academics, for example the issue of categorization. This stud
The present study sought to investigate whether implicit gender attitudes and ambivalent sexism predict the appreciation of sexist humour. A computer-timed Brief Implicit Association Test (BIAT) was used to measure participants’ (N = 83) implicit gender attitudes. Explicit gender attitudes were measured with a Swedish version of the Ambivalent Sexism Inventory (ASI). Four short stand-up comedic vi
Cities today consume over 80% of the world’s energy and are responsible for 75% of the total GHG emissions. Over 80% of the population in Europe live in Urban areas. The mobility system, being at the heart of urban activities is responsible for the movement of people, goods and services and is responsible for attracting investments into cities. Playing such a key role in urban development, the sec
Purpose: To explore whether the view on Business Models and Value Creation, can explain the lack of Venture Capital investments in green start-ups, by examining how green start-up Entrepreneurs, and Venture Capitalist investors, view these two factors. Theoretical framework: The aim of this thesis is to address some of the key knowledge gaps in research available today, regarding why there is a l
This thesis consists of the development of a concept for a new product, the primary purpose of which is to quickly and easily attach legally required tags to the ears of livestock pigs. The project was undertaken at Attention, a product development company based in Copenhagen. For reasons of food safety, EU regulation stipulates that all pigs that are moved from their place of birth must be tagged
In regard to the energy sector, it is generally presumed that in post-Lisbon era and since the adoption of Third Energy Package the Member States and institutions of the Union act in a shared format. However, by developing new legislation in the field, supra-national institutions tend to shift the competence away from shared (as it currently stands). Even if the guidelines for decisions granting e
Cities in Sub-Saharan Africa are characterised by informal transportation services compensating for the lack of institutionalised transportation system. In Kampala, Uganda, the vast army of boda-boda (boda) motorcycle taxis have proliferated through the city, with passengers and/or cargo goods straddled behind the boda drivers as they navigate through the city’s congested and dilapidated roads. De
Utveckling av jordbrukssektorn är en av de viktigaste prioriteringarna för den Etiopiska staten när det kommer till att upprätthålla landets ekonomiska utveckling. Ett sätt att uppnå detta är att satsa på storskaliga utvecklingsprojekt inom jordbruket, till exempel Tana Beles Sugar Development Project som den här uppsatsen kretsar kring. För att kunna anlägga detta har stora landarealer tagits i aDevelopment of the agricultural sector is among the top priorities for the Ethiopian government in order to keep up the economic development in the country. One way of reaching this is to undertake large-scale development projects, such as the Tana Beles Sugar Development Project described in this thesis. For this, large areas of land are required for the plantations. This land is expropriated fro
Servitut är något som skapas för att komplettera en fastighet och där finns två sorter: avtalsservitut och officialservitut. Servitut regleras i 14 kapitlet i Jordabalken, där de ska uppfylla rekvisiten: ändamålsenlig markanvändning, stadigvarande betydelse och i visst hänseende nyttja. Officialservitut skapas av lantmäteriet och regleras i 7 kapitlet Fastighetsbildningslagen och ska, förutom kravEasements are created as a complement to real estates. There are two kinds of easements: agreement-easements, which property owners can agree on, and utility easements, which are issued by The Swedish Mapping, Cadastral and Land Registration Authority (Lantmäteriet). Utility easements regarding waste disposal is something that is becoming more and more usual where 87 % are issued in the 21st centu
The purpose of this thesis is to determine how electric vehicle trucks can meet the needs of customers in the urban building and construction sector. This sector contributes significantly to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, and also creates noise and other disturbances in urban environments. There are multiple benefits that come with electric trucks, which can address these issues if they are used
Dating back to the ancient times, people used simple marks to tell their stories and write their history when languages were not created. As time passes by, there are more and more ways we could choose like writing dairies, taking photos, or using mobile devices to share the stories with friends. We could record almost every second in life easily. On the other hand, we are now facing a huge amount
