Hence programs with this aim are continuously being evaluated for the estimation of their validity. The purpose of this report was to produce and compare complementary results for an up to date version of the program Fire Dynamics Simulator (FDS) to what was pr
Denna uppsats är skriven på uppdrag av Lunds tekniska högskola och Myndigheten för samhällsskydd och beredskap. Uppdraget består av att modellera antalet dödsbränder som sker i Sverige över tid, samt undersöka ifall det har skett någon signifikant förändring. Detta görs utifrån ett antagande om att dödsbränder är Poisson-fördelade, därmed betraktas antalet dödsbränder över tid som en Poisson-proceThe authors of this thesis were tasked with modelling fatal fires in Sweden to answer the question, whether the quarterly number of fires has changed over time. The usage of the Poisson distribution in modelling accidents and mortalities is well attested. Problems arise when measuring the number of fire related mortalities, as several deaths can be attributed to one fire. This violates the assumpt
I Sverige föds varje år cirka 1000 barn med hjärtfel. Föräldrar till barn med livshotande hjärtsjukdom utsätts för stress under lång tid och för att föräldrar ska känna trygghet i samband med deras barns hjärtoperation är därför information av stor vikt. Syftet med studien var att belysa föräldrars upplevelse av den information de fick i samband med sitt barns första planerade hjärtoperation som g
Bakgrund: Då andelen äldre i samhället ökar förväntas även antalet som drabbas av demenssjukdomar att öka. Samtidigt förekommer undernäring i stor utsträckning hos personer med demens. Syfte: Att beskriva sjuksköterskans omvårdnadsarbete avseende prevention av undernäring hos personer med demens. Metod: Studien är en litteraturstudie där 11 artiklar inkluderats samt analyserats med en integrerad a
In this thesis we investigate if following the magic formula can yield superior investment returns in relation to the risk taken. The magic formula is a term coined by Joel Greenblatt, describing a systematic approach to successful stock investing. The strategy identifies high value companies based on return on capital that are selling at a discount to their intrinsic value based on the company’s
Background For companies’ long term survival it is essential to manage product rollovers successfully. It can even be more important than the product development in some cases. Unfortunately, most companies experience less than successful product rollovers. Several difficulties can jeopardise a successful rollover, such as: technical problems that can delay a new product introduction, excess prod
Rökning i samband med strålbehandling en känd faktor som påverkar effekten negativt, dock ett nästan tabubelagt ämne för vårdpersonalen att ta upp med patienterna. Syftet var att belysa sjuksköterskors perspektiv på information om rökning till patienter med kurativ strålbehandling med en kvalitativstudie där 8 sjuksköterskor intervjuades som sedan analyserades med kvalitativ manifest och latent in
Abstract Author: Frida Beck Title: “Skilsmässobarn bär på en tung ryggsäck” Supervisor: Mats Hilte Assessor: Håkan Johansson The aim of this study was to examine how social constructions of children to divorced parents appear in daily newspapers and evening papers. Furthermore this study also examined the difference in the social perception of the child and the parent. The selection of empirica
Compassion fatigue (CF) är ett emotionellt stresstillstånd som medför negativa konsekvenser för både de drabbade sjuksköterskorna och deras patienter. Denna litteraturstudie syftar till att belysa vilka faktorer som inverkar på CF hos onkologisjuksköterskor. Studiens teoretiska utgångspunkt var Aaron Antonovskys teori om Känsla av sammanhang (KASAM). Åtta artiklar, med kvalitativ och kvantitativ a
Hälsa och välmående diskuteras flitigt i olika medier och allt fler människor i arbetslivet uppger att de är stressade. Många arbetsplatser har implementerat träning i det dagliga schemat för att minska stressen och effektivisera arbetet. Syftet med vår studie har varit att genomföra en sambandsstudie mellan fysisk aktivitet och kognitiva egenskaper för att se hur dessa egenskaper samverkar. Vi ha
This thesis presents an analysis of the production of K_S^0 and Λ particles in p-Pb collisions at a center of mass collision energy of sqrt(s_NN) = 5.02 TeV, measured with the ALICE detector at the LHC, CERN. The p_T spectra as well as the baryon-to-meson yield ratio Λ/K_S^0, for p_T <= 15 GeV/c, are investigated and compared for different centrality bins. The results are compared to those from Pb
Antioxidants are compounds present in plant, fruit, and vegetables, and they are known for their medicinal benefits such as anti-carcinogenic and anti-fungicidal activity. Most commonly used methods for extractions of such compounds are lengthy due to mass transfer limitations. This study proposes the use of carbon-dioxide expanded liquids (CXLs) as solvent to improve these limitations. Such solve
