Moving into a nursing home is a significant transition for older people which can be emotional and stressful. The literature on the decision to move and subsequent residential stress focuses on the time after admission; however, there is less understanding of older people’s management of the process. To fully understand and possibly reduce negative consequences and health-related risks, the aim of

During recent years new threats have accentuated the role of scientific experts for creating risk awareness, understanding, and advice for action or preparedness for informed risk decisions. Scientific experts are expected to engage in risk communication with stakeholders at various levels, not least the general public. Scientific experts exist in organizations where forms and goals may vary, as wDuring recent years new threats have accentuated the role of scientific experts for creating risk awareness, understanding, and advice for action or preparedness for informed risk decisions.

Title: Aligning Inventory with Strategic Priorities Across Factory Boundaries – More than moving plates Authors: Lisa Johansson and Johanna Weber Supervisors: Jan Olhager, Professor at Engineering Logistics, Faculty of Engineering(LTH) at Lund University Alexandra Kristensson, Head of S&OP, GPHE at Alfa Laval AB Examiner: Louise Bildsten, Senior Lecturer at Engineering Logistics, Faculty of

This article is the product of a close chronological reading of the debate surrounding the so called ‘’ISIS-returnees’’ in Sweden during the spring of 2019. The debate itself, as well as the situation it concerned, has been treated as a discursive field where a securitization has been attempted and resisted by several actors. The study has found that an intersubjective struggle between these actor

We here reconstruct a glacial and climate history of arctic NW Siberia for the last ~600,000 years, based on the stratigraphy and chronology of 35 studied river sections on the southern Taimyr Peninsula. From this stratigraphic mosaic we have identified four glacial events, marked by tills/glaciotectonics, which are intercalated with mainly marine sediments deposited in proglacial settings during

Flight is an expensive form of locomotion, but also offers the ability to travel great distances at relatively low cost. Birds have developed various adaptations for optimizing flight performance. The main aim of this thesis is to identify how morphological variables in birds affect aerodynamic drag and flight performance. To this end I studied the aerodynamic performance of a jackdaw (Corvus mone

Collaboration between academia and society has become a key priority for many higher education institutions (HEIs). In Sweden, this is partly driven by political calls to secure the long-term provision of knowledge, innovation and competitiveness. At the system and institutional level, responses to this are reflected in governance structures and strategic documents.

Dark matter direct detection experiments need to know the local phase space density of dark matter fdm(r,v,t) in order to derive dark matter particle properties. To date, calculations for fdm(r,v,t) have been based on simulations that model the dark matter alone. Here we include the influence of the baryonic matter. We find that a star/gas disc at high redshift (z∼1) causes merging satellites to b

Europe’s transition towards a net-zero emission economy and society, needs to be designed in a fair and equitable manner. Despite the urgency for action, the term Just Transition has increasingly been turned into a catchphrase that is diffi-cult to grasp. In the EU’s multilevel governance structure, municipalities as im-plementers of EU policies play a crucial role in the transformation process. T

A strong brand requires that the whole company reflects one picture. If one part is not well thought out, this can destroy the picture. Elekta is a human care company whose solutions and services expresses trustworthy and caring. The aim of the project was to create packaging strategy that reflects the company’s profile, to implement a new packaging design. To achieve this, an analysis of the com

När orden mörk materia nämns förs tankarna hos många till sci-fi böcker eller serietidningar. Kanske föreställer man sig en främmande substans i en provrör, eller ett destruktivt svart hål. Sanningen är att mörk materia är mycket mindre dramatiskt än så. Ett definierande drag hos mörk materia är att det interagerar ytterst svagt med vanlig materia. Troligen passerar mörk materiepartiklar rakt igenThe Light Dark Matter Experiment (LDMX) is a fixed-target missing-momentum experiment which hopes to detect dark matter in the MeV-GeV mass range. This is done by firing an 8 GeV electron beam at a thin tungsten target, where the electrons produce dark matter through a process called dark bremsstrahlung. Electrons which have gone through dark matter production can then be found by looking for miss
