Barn i svenska förskolor utsätts för höga ljudnivåer som kan orsaka hörselskador och röstrelaterade problem bland både lärare och elever. Detta på grund av att de behöver höja rösten för att göra sig hörda i en bullrig miljö. På grund av detta är det av intresse att på något sätt kunna förutse ljudmiljön i just förskolor. Detta kan exempelvis göras genom att falta binaurala inspelningar av förskolChildren in Swedish preschools are exposed to high noise levels that can cause hearing damage or voice related problems among both teachers and students, this since they have to raise their voice in order to make themselves heard in a noisy environment. Because of this it is of interest to be able to predict the sound environment in preschools. A way to do this is through convolving binaural recor

ABSTRACT Already in 1960, the Harvard professor Theodore Levitt concluded that without the capabilities to adapt, companies risk missing imminent trends and changes in the market and could suddenly be outrun by competitors. The subject of business model adaption has since been heavily discussed and is, if possible, of even greater importance today. With this thesis, the authors aspires to cast lig

Background BIM, Building Information Modelling, is a relatively new approach to work with building design and information management within the building industry. As higher demands are placed on product information and information management, manufacturers of building materials have to meet the need for BIM objects and 3D modeling. Ecophon is a supplier of sound absorbing ceilings and wall absorbe

Certain organic micropollutants and emerging contaminants are increasingly detected in wastewater effluents due to enhancement of detection techniques and new technological processes or household items being introduced. Some of them can accumulate in food chains and/or pose health risks for humans, wildlife and ecosystems. Often, these are very difficult or impossible to sufficiently remove using

I december 2022 blev en polis allvarligt skadad i samband med ett ingripande. Den kvinnliga polisen blev biten och fick motstå upprepande slag mot huvudet. 27 februari 2023 blev en polis i Norrköping överfallen med kniv utanför polishuset. Detta är bara två av flera incidenter där poliser blir offer för våld och hot om våld i deras yrkesutövning. Poliser tillhör en yrkesgrupp som till vardags fårIn December 2022, a police officer was seriously injured in connection with an intervention. The female police officer was bitten and had to with-stand repeated blows to the head. On February 27, 2023, a police officer in Norrköping was attacked with a knife outside the police station. These are just two of several incidents where police officers are victims of violence and threats of violence in

This study has focused on challenges encountered when setting up a weather-network for agricultural purposes (e.g. linking temperature to the suitability of crops and pest incidence) with only low-cost sensors and materials. The study included a set of experiments in a meteorological station and a one-month period of observations in a large coffee plantation with a complex terrain in Costa Rica. T

How tight junctions are affected in a Multiple Sclerosis model In Multiple Sclerosis (MS), unusual immune cells of unknown origin, which are supposed to protect us from infections, attack the central nervous system (CNS). Their main target is the myelin shield surrounding neuronal axons, which is essential for proper transmission of neuronal signals. These autoreactive cells can enter the CNS thr

Det anses enligt många entreprenadrättsjurister föreligga en rätt till avbeställning för beställaren i ett entreprenadavtal. Emellertid regleras inte avbeställning uttryckligen i AB 04, det standardavtal som tillämpas på en överhängande majoritet av entreprenadavtalen i Sverige. Avsikten med förevarande framställning är därför att analysera hur en domstol skulle bedöma en konfliktsituation där rätAccording to several construction law attorneys there seems to exist a right for the buyer to cancel an order according to a construction contract. However, the right of cancellation is not expressively regulated in AB 04, the standard form contract applicable to the vast majority of the construction contracts in Sweden. Therefore, the purpose of this thesis is to examine how a Swedish court would

The accession to the European Union was based on the financial gains that could be made on the single market. When acceding the Union the Member States gave up parts of their state sovereignty. This statement is not unproblematic. My thesis touches on the posting of workers. Since the adoption of the new Enforcement Directive on the Posting of Workers Directive, two reports on the Swedish impleme

Communication strategies for successful marketing through social media More and more organizations recognize that it is now time to explore new ways of marketing for a more co-creating and value-added communication with its stakeholders. Social media as a meeting place is an area where many people come, making it an ideal venue to communicate with organizations. But how should organizations behave

Neural stem cells (NSCs) in the embryo generate neurons, astrocytes and oligodendrocytes, the principal cells of the central nervous system (CNS), which contribute to the full diversity of the brain. Some NSCs persist in the adult brain and ensures neurogenesis throughout adult life in the subventricular zone (SVZ) and the subgranular zone (SGZ). NSCs in the SGZ generates neurons in the granule ce

Det här arbetet handlar om flow och hur begreppet samverkar med olika aktiviteter i våra liv. Bakgrunden till flow förklaras inledningsvis i kapitlet om teoretisk bakgrund och sätts senare i relation till inre förändring, socialt samspel, fysisk aktivitet, kommunikation, samt pedagogik. Syftet med arbetet är att ge svar på hur flow kan användas i undervisning. Som metod för datainsamling har jag g

Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: Stockholms skärgårds unika miljö utgör livs- och reproduktionsmiljö för ⅓ av Sveriges reproducerande fiskarter. Fisketrycket i detta område har länge varit mycket högt. Detta i kombination med att allt fler turister och fritidsboende söker sig ut till kustområdena ökar behovet av ett effektivt förvaltande av fisken och fisket för att förhindra utarmning samt säkThis work is a GIS study of fishing rights distribution between different categories of owners and properties in the Stockholm Archipelago. The purpose was to create basic data used to establish fishing laws and restrictions within the Stockholm County. Stockholm’s archipelago consists of a unique environment and is the natural life and reproduction environment for ⅓ of Sweden’s reproducing fish s

This thesis examines the impact on traditional knowledge holders' right to culture of corporate appropriation of traditional knowledge for the purpose of developing new medicines. The questions addressed are: - Does the behaviour of pharmaceutical companies in relation to traditional knowledge infringe on the right to culture of original knowledge holders? - What regulation of bioprospecting a

I svensk rätt kan unga lagöverträdare mellan femton och arton år frihetsberövas om det finns synnerliga skäl till det. De påföljder som står till buds är då antingen sluten ungdomsvård eller fängelse – ensamt eller i kombination med skyddstillsyn. Vilken frihetsberövande påföljd som en ung lagöverträdare ska dömas till kan vid en första anblick anses vara klart och tydligt reglerat i svensk lag. PIn Swedish law it is possible to make a deprivation of liberty for juvenile offenders between 15 and 18 years old in case of extraordinary reasons. The available custodial sentences are institutional care of young people and imprisonment – imprisonment could also be combined with probation. Which custodial sentence the court will use for the juvenile offender seems at first sight to be clear in Sw

Problem The procurement of a complete factory, including the design, manufacturing and installation, is a common way for automotive producers when acquiring new production equipment for new models. Due to the long lead times of a procurement process, the process has to commence well before the finalisation of the design of the car to be built. This makes the formulation of requirements very comple

Young adult audiences, news, and news satire: A double-voiced engagementDuring the past decades, news satire has become increasingly popular in many parts of the world (Baym & Jones 2013), while more traditional news genres – in print and broadcast media – seem to be losing some of its young adult audience (cf. Wadbring 2016). Additionally, in the contemporary media landscape, audiences engage

Massive multiple input multiple output (MIMO) is a revolutionary communication technique, where large numbers of antennas are employed at the base stations to increase the spectral efficiency, reliability and data rate of the system. Moreover, in multi-user MIMO (MU-MIMO) multiple users can be served by the base stations on the same time-frequency resource. Distributed antenna system (DAS) is a fo

Limited knowledge of the subsurface geology motivates the use of geophysical techniques before large engineering projects are conducted. These applications are normally restricted to satisfy the project aims, like mapping the near surface sediments, unconsolidated rocks and/or geological structures that may affect the construction locally. However, the applications can also contribute to the gener
