The number of devices connected to the Internet is rapidly increasing. Especially the number of Internet of Things devices. These devices contain software which, like any other software, needs to be updated. With the great amount of devices to update, this calls for a manageable updating solution which does not depend on user interaction. In this thesis we present a solution to dynamically update

The manufacturing industry is heading towards a more digitized environment. Sandvik Coromant is therefore developing intelligent tools, as well as software tools for machining applications. The aim for this thesis is to develop the understanding of a specific machining process. This is done through a background study of previously known methods, followed by development of a demonstrator to integra

Istället för att ett bolag säljer en fastighet direkt kan bolaget sälja ett dotterbolag som äger fastigheten och därmed undgå beskattning på vinsten på försäljningen tack vare reglerna om näringsbetingade andelar. Förfarandet kallas fastighetspaketering. Fastighetspaketering kan genomföras med olika bolagstyper och i olika bolagsstrukturer. Vissa av paketeringsuppläggen har tidigare angripits med

The purpose of this thesis was about investigating how couples counselors integrate Prevention and Relationship Education Program (PREP) in their professional work, how powerful they find the method and how they perceive their roles as couples counselors and PREP leaders. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with nine individuals which all worked within municipal couples counseling. The inclu

Fenomenet idrott har historiskt sett åtnjutit en särställning rättsligt sett vilket inneburit att idrotten och dess organ själva har fått reglera sin verksamhet genom att stifta sina egna lagar och regler utan ingripande från övriga samhället. Anledningarna till denna självständiga normbildning är flera men utgår ofta från en föreställning om att idrott är ett sådant fenomen som inte lämpar sig atThe phenomenon of sport has historically enjoyed a special status in law, which has meant that sport and its organisations themselves have been regulating their activities by legislating their own laws and rules without interference from the rest of society. The reasons for this are several but are often based on the idea that sport is such a phenomenon that does not lend itself to be force into t

Sweden has seen an increased number of homeless EU citizens over the last years. There is no consensus among Swedish municipalities on how to handle the issue of housing for vulnerable EU citizens. The purpose of this thesis is to examine the right to housing and why vulnerable EU citizens cannot access the right. The issue is studied on three levels – human rights law, EU law and domestic Swedish

This master thesis has evaluated the possible use of a spray dryer to produce powders suitable for use as inhalants and whether the addition of liposomes to the solution to be spray dried would improve the properties of the powder. The powders created consisted of Lysozyme as model drug, Lactose as filler and stabilizer, and different types of phospholipids to create liposomes using an ethanol inj

A processing method is developed to characterize contacts for vertical nanowire structures. The process is based around optical lithography and an organic spacer material in order to facilitate an easily repeatable processing flow. Substrates with MOVPE grown GaSb nanowires are processed into sets of resistor devices. Variation in resistance of the devices is achieved by adding contacts at differen

This thesis investigates the modern phenomena of ruralisation; people leave the city for a life in a calm rural region, explained by theories of lifestyle migration, push pull effects and new expectations. During the last 20 years, migration from Stockholm to four Swedish rural regions have increased with 37 percent according to collected statistics, answering the first research question on how mi

Skyddsombudens rätt att stoppa arbetet ska användas restriktivt. Samtidigt har Corona påverkat hela världen och viruset kan innebära dödlig utgång om man inte är vaccinerad. Trots att rekvisiten för rätten att stoppa arbetet torde vara uppfyllda så meddelas sällan ett förbud ifrån Arbetsmiljöverket och/eller förvaltningsdomstolarna. I detta arbete görs en analys om varför utifrån samtliga överklag

Bakgrund: Cirka var tredje kvinna i världen har blivit utsatt för våld av en partner och mörkertalet är stort. Trots att identifiering av våld ökar betydligt när vårdpersonal ställer frågor om våldsutsatthet är det många inom vården som inte gör det. Syfte: Att undersöka faktorer som underlättar och hindrar kommunikation för identifiering av kvinnor utsatta för våld i nära relationer. Metod: I en

While grey infrastructure, such as sea walls, have been the traditional method of mitigating coastal hazards there has been an increasing interest in adapting using natural processes, known as Nature-based Solutions (NbS). As with most places in the world, southern Sweden is facing an increase in coastal hazards due to climate change related sea level rise. There is a need to understand the utilit

The European Spallation Source (ESS) has launched a project called HighNESS, with the task of investigating the potential of adding a second moderator system to the facility, with ortho-deuterium (o-D2) being the main material of interest. Another moderator material which could be of interest is hydrogen deuteride (HD). The purpose of this second moderator system would be to provide a high intensi

Owing to the intensive computation involved in the Discrete Cosine Transform during image com- pression, the design of the efficient hardware architectures for fast computation of the transform has become imperative, especially for real-time applications. Although fast computation techniques have been able to minimise the hardware computation complexity to a certain limit, they could further exten

I den här rapporten undersöks möjligheten för att tillverka och använda gjutmodeller tillverkade genom additiv tillverkning, i folkmun kallat 3D-printing. Först görs en grundläggande analys över hur modellerna tillverkas idag och vilka krav som ställs på modellen. Detta innefattar både rena material och hållfasthetskrav, men även mer svårdefinierade krav där man enbart kan resonera kring rimliga aIn this report the possibility for the manufacture and use of molding-patterns made through additive manufacturing methods, commonly called 3D-printing, is evaluated. First an analysis of how the patterns are currently being made and which demands that are put on them will be made. This includes more pure material and load demands, as well as more abstract and hard defined demands. After this the

Famine has played an essential part in the rise and fall of many civilizations. Yet, many considers the plight of famine a phenomenon of the past, reserved for but the poorest parts of the world. In Europe there are plenty examples of famine and hardship during the 19th century. When the most recent famine in Swedish history struck the area of Småland during the 1860s, the mortality distribution d

Bakgrund: Förekomsten av utmattningssyndrom (UMS) ökar i Sverige, vilket leder till allt längre sjukskrivningstider. En längre period med höga nivåer av stress i kombination med otillräcklig återhämtningkan leda till utvecklandet av UMS. Syndromet kännetecknas av tre aspekter: känsla av utmattning, mental distansering och minskad effektivitet. Att vara drabbad av UMS ökar risken för tveckling av e

In this paper a parallel implementation of three methods, Jacobi, Gauss-Seidel and Successive over relaxation (SOR), for solving large and sparse linear systems derived from Poisson type PDEs are investigated in order to find the faster solver method. Workload which is decoupled can be done faster in parallel than sequentially. We use a grid to discretize the PDE and the order of the grid cells yi
