In March 2011 Libya was the first state to experience an UN-approved R2P intervention. The intervention led to the downfall of Colonel Muammar Gaddafi, Libya’s autocratic leader since 1969. Despite the monumental meaning of the intervention, there has been little research done about how it affected the human security in Libya. This comparative study will examine the relationship between humanitari
Bakgrund: Psykisk ohälsa är ett växande hälsoproblem. Att rehabiliteras i naturmiljö har visats bidra till ökad hälsa för personer med svår stress. Att göra en litteraturöversikt är aktuellt för att konstatera vad det finns för forskning idag om rehabilitering i naturmiljö. Syfte: Syftet med översikten är att kartlägga forskning om rehabilitering i naturmiljö för personer med svår stress utifrån eBackground: Mental illness is a growing health issue. Rehabilitation in a natural environment has been shown to contribute to increased health for people with severe stress. It is important to do a literature review to ascertain what research there is today on rehabilitation in a natural environment. Aim: The object of the review is to map research on rehabilitation in natural environment for peop
När EKS 11 publicerades blev det krav på att i Br0-byggnader göra en särskild bedömning av byggnadsdelars skyddsbehov med avseende på deras bärförmåga vid brand för att avgöra om det föreligger ett utökat skyddsbehov för byggnadsdelarna. I de fall där det föreligger ett utökat skyddsbehov ökar de brandtekniska kraven som ställs på byggnadsdelarna, medan i de fall där det inte föreligger ett utökatThe aim of this thesis is to investigate which factors that should be taken into consideration in the assessment of extended fire safety for building components in building class Br0. Problem areas have been identified through a literature study in this field. To solve the identified problems, interviews have been carried out with the National board of Housing, Building and Planning (Boverket) and
Idag diskuteras det inte längre om BIM är användbart i produktionen utan det fokuseras på hur vi optimerar, analyserar och sprider informationen. Hur går vi från att tillgängliggöra BIM till att fullständigt implementera det?
Alkanes offer great and barely utilised potential for usage as raw materials in large-scale chemical processes. Their lack of reactivity, however, warrants methods of manipulating and transforming them in an efficient and mild way, which can potentially be realised by employing homogeneous catalysis using pincer complexes. A reliable procedure for the synthesis and diastereomer-separation of 2-met
Enligt svensk lag är kommuner skyldiga att identifiera potentiella hot och säkerställa samhällets motståndskraft mot dessa hot. En viktig del av arbetet är att beakta samhällsviktiga verksamheter och de beroenden som finns mellan dem. Framförallt är det viktigt att identifiera vilka av beroendena som är kritiska. Ett kritiskt beroende mellan verksamheter innebär att om en verksamhet slutar fungeraDependencies between critical infrastructures are often complex by nature, which makes it hard to assess both their criticality and their impact level. These are the overarching reasons behind the development of a newly proposed KE-method at Lund University (at CenCIP) in cooperation with the Swedish Civil Contingencies Agency (MSB) in 2018/19. The purpose of the method is to map, analyze and visu
Current technological limitations make it impossible to store the enormous amount of data produced from proton-proton collisions by the ATLAS detector at CERN's Large Hadron Collider. Therefore, specialised hardware and software is being used to decide what data, or which proton-proton \textit{collision events}, to save and which to discard. A reduction in the storage size of each collision ev
With the rapid development of the autonomous drive (AD) technology, driverless vehicles may soon be reality. As one of the most renowned car manufacturers in the world, Volvo Car Group are investing in and developing the technology. As a part of this development, this thesis was initiated at the Trunk Trim Department. The purpose of this thesis has been to research the area of luggage compartments
Den rådande makromiljön har gjort fastighetssektorn glödhet, och det tycks ha varit svårt att helt misslyckas i branschen under de senaste åren – åtminstone om man ej varit en högbelånad bostadsutvecklare. Samtidigt har tillväxten inte varit likafördelad, och några bolag har lyckats växa från ingenting till miljarder i fastighetsvärden bara på några år. Så vad är det som utgör en attraktiv tillväx
A novel calculation model for estimating the frequency of accidents involving transport of dangerous goods on road links is proposed. It has been developed through a design process using background knowledge gathered through study and analysis of literature and through interviews with people having expertise within the field. The purpose of the model is to be used for risk analysis in societal pla
The purpose of this paper is to examine five strategies to practice more effectively. Classical musicians, especially pianists, have to spend a lot of time practicing and it is important to make sure that the practice is effective. This paper has the following aims: to improve practicing skills and practice more effectively by developing two old strategies, memorization, and self-recording as well
Depressioner och ångestsyndrom har ökat i hela ungdomspopulationen, samsjuklighet är vanligt vilket ökar behovet av multimodala evidensbaserade behandlingsmetoder. Ett exempel är Unified Protocol (UP) som fokuserar på transdiagnostiska kärnmekanismer vid emotionella störningar. Syftet med uppsatsen var att utvärdera UP i gruppformat för ungdomar med depressions- och ångeststörningar vid en BUP-motDepression and anxiety disorders have increased throughout the youth population, comorbidity is common, which increases the need for multimodal evidence-based treatment methods. One example is the Unified Protocol (UP), which focuses on transdiagnostic mechanisms in emotional disturbances. The purpose of the study was to evaluate UP in group format for adolescents with depression and anxiety disor
Factors influencing and improving a student’s academic attainments, in particular, test scores, are an essential concern for academics as well as policymakers. In this thesis, I add a student’s ordinal rank, calculated from underlying test scores, as a new input factor to the education production function. By using experimental data on primary schools in the United States, I assess whether the ord
Fingerprint recognition is a well-known problem in pattern recognition and widely used in contemporary authentication technology such as access devices in mobile phones. The subject of this thesis is to investigate the applicability of convolutional neural networks for fingerprint recognition. This is accomplished by designing various network architectures for this task. Our starting-point is an a
Lignin is found in nature as one of the most abundant biopolymers. The large amounts of lignin generated as a by-product or waste from mainly pulp and paper industry have great potential as a source of renewable (aromatic) carbon and could be applied for production of platform chemicals in the proposed circular economy/biorefinery concept. Due to the heterogenous lignin polymer structure, its degr
There has been a dramatic growth in organizations aiming to leverage the power of platform business models and capture the vast amounts of value stemming from external innovation. Thus, actors are required to open up their innovation processes to third-party developers, and make sure these external resources are incentivized to both enter and remain in the ecosystem. So far, there has been a limit
Mitochondrial damage and dysfunction are associated with the aging process, and can be attributed to mutations in both nuclear and mitochondrial genes involved in cellular respiration. Mitochondrial DNA is particularly prone to damage due to its proximity to reactive oxygen species in the mitochondrial matrix. With the current advances in gene therapy studies for both inherited and acquired diseas
This thesis was done in collaboration with, and on behalf of, One Nordic AB. The purpose was to examine the system One Demand, a system used for sampling measurement data, to begin the development of a new version of the system. The new system is comprised of two parts, a central unit and a graphical user interface. The first step was to find a single board computer, on which the computer program
