Information Sharing in the Swedish Rail Freight Industry

Background Low fill rates of goods transportation causes low overall utilization of resources in the logistics sector. The total goods flow is expected to increase and thus CO2-emissions. Rail freight is a low emission alternative to e.g. road haulage. To counter this development, initiatives have been aiming for achieving better efficiencies and promoting rail freight. Information sharing is cons

Critical Infrastructure Resilience – Comparing Swedish critical infrastructures based on interruption data

Today’s modern societies are becoming increasingly dependent on the vital societal functions that technical critical infrastructures provide, for example availability of electricity, tap water and internet connectivity. Hence, it is of essence that these infrastructures are resilient to interruptions. The purpose of this thesis is to investigate and contrast resilience levels of different types of

Organic nitrogen and carbon in Swedish rivers : increasing trends from 1987-2017

Östersjön har under decennier påverkats av övergödning. Det är den stora tillförseln av näringsämnen och den långsamma vattenomsättning som gör att Östersjön är speciellt utsatt för övergödning. De näringsämnen som orsakar övergödning är vanligtvis fosfor och kväve. Dock finns en tveksamhet i forskningsvärlden om huruvida respektive ämne bidrar till övergödning. En fråga som forskarna är särskilt In the past decades, increased organic carbon concentrations have been reported from freshwaters across the Northern Hemisphere. However, there is little knowledge regarding whether or not these changes are linked to increasing concentrations of organic nitrogen. This poor understanding of nitrogen biogeochemistry is a problem in face of the potential eutrophication effects of nitrogen in receivin

Occupational Burnout In Swedish Professionals (The OSA Regulations vs Organisational Practice)

This study investigates why the women are not partic

Dynamic Recrystallization in the Sveconorwegian Frontal Wedge, Småland, southern Sweden

I de centrala delarna av södra Sverige finns ett tektoniskt gränsområde som traditionellt sett har kallats Protoginzonen. Det har agerat som gränsen mellan bergarter vilka undkommit svekonorvegisk deformation och metamorfos i öster, och bergarter som upplevt den svekonorvegiska bergskedjebildningen till väster. Norr om Vänern kallas detta gränsområde numera Sveconorwegian Frontal Deformation Zone

Open Innovation, An Integrated Framework towards understanding Open Innovation in SMEs, A Multiple Case Study on Swedish SMEs

Problem: The open innovation research landscape is comprised of complex and fuzzy concepts, theories, and frameworks, as researchers have developed and relied on varying theoretical concepts that encompass diverse dimensions. The bulk of such research within this space is seen to be constituted by large companies with a lack of consideration for SMEs. Therefore, a framework and guideline that high

Lost opportunities in food chain sustainability: Assessing the absence of a Swedish food bank through the utilization of an MLP framework

: Food is an integral part of our everyday lives, with a plethora of social and commercial activities built around it. Despite being so intensive in resources, a third of the production is destined to be wasted. To comply with the waste management guidelines, redistribution should be society’s priority, especially when considering how many individuals cannot afford food. Interestingly, despite its
