In this thesis, a fault detection and diagnosis system is developed for the Crazyflie 2.1 unmanned aerial vehicle. Different types of faults are investigated and suitable methods and tests are implemented. The system is mainly developed for the lighthouse positioning, but the tests and methods are generic and suitable for other parts of the Crazyflie eco-system. For the faults investigated, differ
Background: Blockchain technology has during the last years become a hot topic for supply chain management. Solutions are being developed and sold, but exactly what blockchain technology can bring to the supply chain is unclear. The technology can be divided into two main varieties, public and private. The public version sparked the initial interest in the technology but has not been as heavily pr
Party polarization research at the academic level has been limited so far compared to media coverage. Nonetheless, there is increasing academic attention on the effects of polarization on policy intensity. This study aims to analyse the impact party polarization has on the government response carried out in the EU countries during Covid-19. The specialized literature study how political polarizati
This thesis aims to present the relationship between competition law and data protection law in the digital market. The paper illustrates the economic background that creates certain conditions for the interplay between the bodies of law. The emergence of the digital economy with platform-based business models is a challenge that cannot be tackled within a single system. Therefore, the paper prese
Double taxation has been widely accepted that constitutes an obstacle to the functioning of the single market. The European Union has adopted some uniform measures to have double taxation eliminated, for example, the Parent-Subsidiary Directive and the Interest-Royalty Directive. In addition, the Arbitration Convention has been concluded between Member States to eliminate double taxation in respec
Although several studies have reported a negative association between self compassion (SC) and depressive symptomatology (DASS), less is known about the pathways that constitute this relationship. This study aims to expand on the current research by examining if shame, guilt, or rumination act as independent mediators between self-compassion and depressive symptoms in a sample of young adults bet
As the Internet of Things (IoT) becomes more and more prevalent, there are growing concerns of how it will affect our lives. With its capabilities to record large amounts of data, it carries large risks to personal privacy and the protection of our personal data. The opacity of IoT also makes it hard to know exactly what data is being collected and how it is protected, as such transparency and sec
As there currently are not so many known studies which directly evaluate how diversity indices have been used in different contexts, following literature study was made with the purpose of investigating how three of the most commonly used diversity indices (including Shannon-Wiener’s and Simpson’s Indices as well as a certain index measuring taxonomic diversity) are representing different categori
Title Identifying critical service issues in the service encounter – a first step in the development of a conceptual for the shipping industry Author Claas Boomgaarden Key Words Service Quality, Service Encounter, SERVQUAL, INDSERV, PDSQ, LSQM, Shipping Industry, Service Science, Service Dominant Logic, Relationship Marketing Purpose The purpose of this research is to provide a first step in th
In the 20th century, the scientific community recognized global climate change as a preeminent challenge facing our planet. The primary driver of this predicament was identified as the substantial reliance on fossil fuels, constituting approximately 80% of the world's energy consumption. The combustion of these fossil fuels, particularly those rich in carbon, led to the emission of greenhouse gase
Hard coatings can be applied to a traditional cast iron brake disc to increase wear resistance and thus reduce brake disc particle emission. An alumina coating prepared through a modified plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) process also shows a promise in wear reduction for automotive brake disc. The aim of the work was further to study effect of the alumina coating surface conditions on tribologi
Assertive Community Treatment (ACT) is the most common ambulatory service delivery model for people with severe mental illness worldwide. Flexible ACT, a Dutch modification of ACT, provides comprehensive care for the entire population of people with severe mental illness (SMI). FACT combines the principles of individual case management with ACT services. Researchers found an association between mo
Fysik handlar om att försöka förstå hur världen omkring oss fungerar utifrån vissa grundläggande principer. Fasta tillståndets fysik fokuserar på de fasta material vi har omkring oss. Dessa material har olika strukturer beroende på vilka grundämnen de är uppbyggda av och hur de har bildats. Om en gas av atomer kyls ner långsamt tenderar atomerna att ordna sig i specifika regelbundna mönster, så kaIn materials with open 3$d$ and 4$f$ shells the valence electrons are relatively localized around the atoms which leads to large electron-electron correlations. These, so called strongly correlated materials, exhibit many intriguing properties such as high $T_c$ superconductivity, colossal magneto-resistance and heavy fermion behaviour. The strong electron-electron correlations make these material
Transfusion of ABO major incompatible platelets (where the recipient has antibodies against the ABO group of the transfused platelets) has been shown to be associated with lower platelet count increments following transfusion [1], although this does not appear to translate to a difference in bleeding outcomes [2]. Transfusion of minor ABO incompatible platelets (where the suspending plasma of the
With a new regionalisation process in Europe a number of macro-regions are appearing. The same as countries or cities, macro-regions aim at developing or increasing the competitiveness in the global markets not only for products or funds, but also for ideas, influence and reputation, for trust and attention. The model of competitive identity – the brand management model for nations, cities and reg
Purpose – The purpose of this master thesis is to examine the profile of contemporary skills and knowledge provided in Logistics and Supply Chain Management (LSCM) postgraduate programs offered by Swedish universities and compares them with job requirements. Design/methodology/approach – This master thesis employs the desk-based research involving content analysis based on 14 postgraduate LSCM pro
The rapid growth in hedge funds has triggered an international debate on the risks involved with their operations and potential negative effects on the financial system. The rise and fall of Long Term Capital Management - which prompted the US Federal Reserve to engineer a bail-out - still haunts the sector 10 years on. Simultaneously we have to admit that markets and investors benefit from a wide
