Modelica is a modelling language used to describe a physical system and can be used to simulate the system. A Modelica compiler transforms a Modelica model into an equation system in order to simulate it. During this transformation the information about where the equations originates from is lost. This information could be useful to have when, e.g., trying to locate an error. In this thesis we sol

År 2011 kom det första auktoritära ”soft law” dokumentet inom området företag och mänskliga rättigheter,”UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human rights”.

This bachelor thesis uses the case of a double land allocation agreement on the Swedish island of Gotland and asks to what degree neoliberal planning is present when using the policy instrument. The main theoretical framework used was that of David Harvey(2005), on the manifestation of neoliberal policies. His framework puts forth four main ways in which neoliberal policies are manifested.

The purpose of this master’s thesis, based on literary and empirical studies, is to illustrate and discuss how libraries with special collections are affected by thefts. All institutions working with cultural heritage are possible targets of theft. The study examines how thefts from library special collections affect the libraries. In Sweden only a few regional and university libraries own collec

User generated data is getting more and more common. This data often expands in to hundreds of millions, if not billions, of data points. It is in the interest of every company with these vast amounts of data to make sense of them in one way or another. In machine learning, cluster analysis has been one way of trying to categorize data without supervision. Mahout is a library which runs on top of

Professor Research area: Biomechanics - What happens when we load our body? I do research in biomedical engineering, more specifically in biomechanics. This means that with help from the laws of physics, I try to understand how forces affect our body, and more specifically the tissues. It's a broad subject, but my research focuses on the musculoskeletal system's tissues, i.e. bones, joints, and te
