The purpose of the master thesis is to optimize the stock holding levels of Arla Foods´ products in the National Distribution Centre in Leeds, by constructing a replenishment model for selected products. Deliverables: The focus of the master thesis has been to develop a replenishment model in order to better control and reduce the stock levels. Methodology: We focused primarily on gaining a deeper

Sen 2001 års terrorattacker i USA har regleringsåtgärder med syfte att förebygga nya attacker ökat nämnvärt, i vissa fall med direkta och ingripande konsekvenser för enskilda individer. Vidare har påtvingande av sådana åtgärder karakteriserats av sekretess, ibland i den omfattningen att ingen information angående grunderna har kommunicerats till berörda personer. Detta har lett till en utveckling Since the terror attacks in USA in 2001, legal measures with the aim of preventing new attacks have multiplied, many with direct and harsh effects on individuals. Proceedings imposing such measures have, furthermore, been characterized by secrecy, sometimes to the extent that none of the grounds have been communicated to the persons concerned. This has led to a legal development in Europe concerni

For the Geneva motor show 2006 I created a special Trim and Colour for Pininfarina’s three production cars. Trim and Colour means the complete design of materials and colours used in the car exterior and interior. In my diploma work I explored the possibility to unite the image of three different cars by the use of material and colours. I analysed the exhibition environment in which they were to

This master thesis was performed at Lund Institute of Technology and Dresser Wayne Pignone, Malmö. It aims to achieve two new design concepts for fuel dispensers, which is Dresser Wayne’s main business area. The dispenser, Global Star, which was to be redesigned is a C-style model and should remain so, i.e. have the hoses located on one side of the hydraulic cabinet. This cabinet fits the hydrauli

Organizational resource acquisition including finance and people in a dynamic environment affects the venture’s business activities and even its establishment. This paper aims to examine the concept mass customization and the process of obtaining resource commitments for the creation of a new venture called D.B.M. in the face of liabilities of newness. To this end, a case study based on the first-

Sweden has one of the most restrictive HIV transmission laws in the world. The Communicable Diseases Act contains the duty to inform, demanding that HIV positive people must inform their partners about their HIV status before sexual intercourse. Sex is also not permitted without a condom. Charges can be brought against HIV positive people not only in the case of actual HIV transmission, but also w

This study sought to evaluate the historical impact of changes to an ordering page of an online travel agency on its conversion rates. Data gathered from the website over a year, detailing aspects such as travel dates, prices, itineraries, number of passengers, travel time, and carriers, was analyzed.

In the spring of 2020 an ambitious new strategy, named Farm to Fork, was made public as part of the wider EU Green Deal. The main goal being substantial decrease in the use of both synthetic fertilizers and pesticides. Despite the negative consequences of large scale industrial pesticide use, the agricultural industry within the European Union has a lot to lose in a potential legislation to limit

The feasibility of implementing a hydraulic load-holding solution in a BorgWarner all-wheel-drive (AWD) coupling was investigated in this work. There exist many sophisticated valve designs intended for load holding applications, but this work focused on simple solenoid valves to reduce cost and complexity. To evaluate the feasibility of the intended load-holding solution, a leakage and pressure dr

Organic waste forms a big share of municipal solid waste, especially in developing countries. Its management is however faced with many challenges ranging from limited financial and technical capacity to lack of, or weak policy enforcement. This causes poor management of the waste leading to open dumping and disposal in un-engineered landfills. Such practices have adverse effects on both the envir

Cities around the world are not only facing the impacts of climate change but are also increasingly charged with the responsibility to adapt. The city of Malmö in Sweden, facing the consequences of ever-so-present pluvial floods, has set an objective to increase the use of multifunctional Nature-based Solutions (NBS) in its urban stormwater planning. Nevertheless, despite evidence pointing at the

Within the context of the European Union Competition Law, a master's thesis entitled "Data as a Barrier to Entry and an Essential Facility: Law & Economics Analysis" conducts an in-depth investigation of the function that data plays in relation to competition law. The idea that data might be a valuable asset in the contemporary digital economy is presented in the very first part

Aim: To perform a model-based analysis of the short- and long-term health benefits and costs of further increased implementation of empagliflozin for people with type 2 diabetes and established cardiovascular disease (eCVD) in Sweden. Materials and Methods: The validated Institute for Health Economics Diabetes Cohort Model (IHE-DCM) was used to estimate health benefits and a 3-year budget impact,

This article is a response to Bill Gardner and Kelly McCauley’s ‘gaslighting’ critique of our text on the perils of authentic leadership. Against gaslighting 1.0 (evilly trying to convince people to doubt their perceptions), we propose gaslighting 2.0 (enlightenment). We argue that organizations face severe problems and challenges that cannot be solved by motivating managers to engage in introspec
