A project at ABB CRC in Västerås aims at investigating the use of an MPC algorithm as a control module in 800xA. For users to interact with such a controller, faceplates need to be designed. This report describes the process, and results of designing such faceplates using among other the ABB Graphics Builder application. The challenge with the design work was mainly to create new and unique compon
Det är viktigt för försäkringsbolag att kunna förutspå framtida stora utbetalningar och även den totala utbetalningen per år för en specifik försäkring. Detta underlag kan försäkringsbolaget sedan ta hjälp av vid premiesättning och vid köp av återförsäkring. I denna uppsats används extremvärdesteori, en gren inom matematisk statistik där extrema händelser studeras, för att uppskatta storleken av fPredicting future large claims, as well as the total cost, of a specific insurance is essential for insurance companies, for example when setting premium levels or purchasing reinsurance coverage. The purpose of this thesis is to investigate if extreme value theory can be applied to construction defect insurance claims. Data is provided by an insurance company offering construction insurance and
The purpose of this paper was to assess how the EU chemical regulation, REACH, affected the reform of the U.S. Toxic Substances Control Act. It borrows from theories of policy diffusion and of the EU as a regulatory power, which were used to theorize two causal mechanisms potentially leading to convergence between the European and American chemical regulations, tested using a method of process-tra
This qualitative study examines how the Israeli occupation affects and interferes with Palestinian intimate relationships in the Occupied Palestinian Territories. The research material consists of semi-structured interviews with female students and graduates conducted during a short period of fieldwork in the West Bank in September 2016. The thesis shows that Israeli mechanisms of control, such as
Expatriate är en gränsöverskridande identitet i dagens globala samhälle som förknippas med en tillfällig arbetsposition utomlands. Den kritik som riktats mot begreppet, att det är ett begrepp reserverat för Vita västerlänningar, går i linje med en postkolonial teoretisk strävan att problematisera de begrepp och språkliga gränsdragningar som används i den globala diskursen. Uppsatsens syfte är att
Syfte: Syftet med den här uppsatsen är att problematisera mångfaldshanteringen genom att studera mångfald där den praktiseras, bland de anställda. Med hjälp av anställdas perspektiv vill vi undersöka hur ett företag i Sverige praktiskt jobbar med diversity management. För att detta ska bli möjligt är det samtidigt viktigt att förstå ledningens perspektiv, därför kommer vi att ta med även denna. Vi
Pilotstudien syftade till att undersöka om en KBT-baserad vägledd självhjälpsbehandling för låg självkänsla administrerad över internet är associerad med förändring i självkänsla och livskvalitet för deltagarna. Studien har en kvasiexperimentell design med för- och eftermätning, utan randomisering eller kontrollgrupp. 35 personer deltog i SKÖN-projektet (självkänsla över nätet) som pågick under seThe purpose of this pilot study was to examine if a CBT-based guided self-help treatment administered online for people suffering from low self-esteem was associated with a change in self-esteem and life satisfaction. The study was quasi-experimental, without control groups or randomization. Participants were measured pre- and post-treatment. The study revealed a result that was statistically sign
Enzymer är biologiskt aktiva molekyler med en katalytisk förmåga. Detta innebär enzym kan medföra en omvandling av ett ämne i en reaktion som normalt inte sker spontant. Laccas är ett enzym som kan bryta ner (oxidera) fenolföreningar, och i naturen förekommer det i växter, svampar och bakterier där det fyller olika funktioner.In order to broaden the use of laccase and increase its economic practicability for industrial oxidative processes, we have immobilized the enzyme in cross-linked enzyme aggregates (CLEA). The immobilization was carried out in two steps consisting of 1) precipitation- and 2) cross-linking of the enzymes. A factorial design was used in order to reveal the importance of different process parameters
This report investigates how the fire protection is regulated and implemented and also how follow-up of fire protection can be done. The purpose of follow-up is to measure the state of a chosen property, in this case fire protection. In order to find methods for follow-up of fire protection an identification of methods was done. This identification consisted of a literature review and an internati
The Solar energy is playing a fundamental role in the transition to a low carbon electricity production system. Driven by rapidly decreasing prices for solar installations in the last years, the solar energy market in Europe is currently undergoing a transformation. Subsidies such as feed-in tariffs are being phased out and replaced with the possibility to self-consume solar energy, earning a prof
In this thesis, we apply Bayesian Optimization to estimate the parameters of the LPJ-GUESS dynamic vegetation model with a focus on Methane (CH4) emissions in the Siikaneva wetland in Finland. Previous research has used other statistical methods, such as Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC), to estimate the LPJ-GUESS model parameters, achieving a root mean square error (RMSE) of 0.023. Our objective is
Popular science: Find a suitable area for rainwater harvesting Rainwater harvesting is a technique to capture and store rainfall where it falls. The technique of water harvesting can be used for different purposes, e.g providing irrigation water, drinking water, increase groundwater recharge, and reduce flood risk. The application of rainwater harvesting is suitable in arid and semi-arid areas, w
In advective-dispersive simulations of aquifers, retardation factors using linear adsorption isotherms are commonly employed to represent the adsorption-desorption process for solutes in soil. In particular, the retardation factors that use entire pore space (total porosity) or effective pore space (effective porosity) are widely used. Although another retardation factor that describes solute tran
