Title: A framework for how logistics service providers should handle returns as a warehouse operation for pure e-commerce companies Authors: Louise Meurling and Matilda Sturesson Supervisor: Joakim Kembro, Division of Engineering Logistics at LTH Problem description: Managing the reverse logistics process in a warehouse is a central part of the activities for companies operating in e-commerce.
The energy system in Sweden is currently under a great transformation, where the part of weather dependent energy sources, so called intermittent sources, like solar and wind power will get greater share in the total production of electricity while the production from stable energy sources like nuclear power is decreasing. For a long time, the nuclear power have been operating at baseload and the
Date of Seminar: 2018.01.11 Supervisor: Devrim Göktepe-Hultén Key words: Change management, change process, Shape 2020, Shape & Share Purpose: The purpose of this thesis is to investigate how Cramo AB works with change management and if they succeed or not, by using Kotter’s model as an analytic tool and other theoretical perspectives of change management. Methodology: The research is con
I denna rapport sammanställer vi resultaten från en workshop med Hovedstadens Beredskab i Danmark. Workshopen utfördes som en del av projektet FIRE21 (Fire and Rescue Services in the 21st Century). I projektet studerar vi (forskare från Sverige, Norge och Danmark) hur räddningstjänster löser problem i så kallade problemlösande nätverk. Vi ser dessa som nödvändiga för att lösa problem i dagens och
Objectives: Dyspnea, or breathlessness, is a frequent and distressing symptom among patients with heart and lung diseases, particularly in advanced cancer stages, where it affects up to 90% of lung cancer cases. This symptom considerably diminishes quality of life, leading to physical deconditioning, increased levels of anxiety and depression, repeated hospitalizations, and elevated mortality rat
SignificanceThe spatial distribution of the photosensitizing drug concentration is an important parameter for predicting the photodynamic therapy (PDT) outcome. Current diffuse fluorescence tomography methods lack accuracy in quantifying drug concentration. The development of accurate methods for monitoring the temporal evolution of the drug distribution in tissue can advance the real-time light d
Denna avhandling är en sammanläggningsavhandling som består av tre enskilda forskningsartiklar som undersöker om och hur de inflytelserika åren, negativa händelser och kollektiva kriser påverkar social tillit – tron att dom flesta människor går att lita på. Trots det omfattande vetenskapliga intresset för social tillit, baseras större delen av tidigare forskning om hur social tillit formas över liThis dissertation is a compilation thesis comprised of three individual research articles that explore whether and how the impressionable years, detrimental events and collective crises predict social trust – the belief that most people can be trusted. Despite the widespread scholarly interest in social trust, most previous research in the formation of social trust over the life-course is based on
We review the history of floristic studies of the parish of Stenbrohult, southern Sweden, where Carl Linnaeus was born in 1707 and spent his summers until 1728. Unfortunately, Carl Linnaeus never made a list of the wild vascular plants at his birthplace, although he mentioned at least 64 species from the parish of Stenbrohult in various manuscripts and books. However, he said that Stenbrohult was
This study is motivated by the understanding that entrepreneurship varies from one context to another as there are distinctive factors that influence the development and organization of entrepreneurial activities in any particular national context. Using qualitative methodology the study aims at developing a conceptual and empirical framework for the study and understanding of the phenomenon of en
An automated glucose feeding strategy that avoids acetate accumulationin cultivations of Escherichia coli is discussed. We havepreviously described how a probing technique makes it possible todetect and avoid overflow metabolism using a dissolved oxygen sensor.In this paper these ideas are extended with a safety net thatguarantees that aerobic conditions are maintained. The method isgenerally appl
Cholecystokinin (CCK-) positive basket cells form a distinct class of inhibitory GABAergic interneurons, proposed to act as fine-tuning devices of hippocampal gamma-frequency (30-90 Hz) oscillations, which can convert into higher frequency seizure activity. Therefore, CCK-basket cells may play an important role in regulation of hyper-excitability and seizures in the hippocampus. In normal conditio
Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) are a major constituent of the tumor microenvironment, although their origin and roles in shaping disease initiation, progression and treatment response remain unclear due to significant heterogeneity. Here, following a negative selection strategy combined with single-cell RNA sequencing of 768 transcriptomes of mesenchymal cells from a genetically engineered m
Inhibitors that are generated during thermochemical pretreatment and hydrolysis impair the performance of microorganisms during fermentation of lignocellulosic hydrolysates. In omitting costly detoxification steps, the fermentation process relies extensively on the performance of the fermenting microorganism. One attractive option of improving its performance and tolerance to microbial inhibitors
