Full textIn todays society 2.7 billion people use the Internet, which represents 39% of the world population (ICT, 2013). Internet usage is growing and the rapid development is one of the biggest changes in our generation (Dicken, 2007). The amount of data sent and processed is increasing parallel with technology and the Internet rampage (Plant 2011). In 2012 2.5 exabytes of data was created every day, and this colossal number doubles every 40 months. This equates to 50 million file cabinets with paper subtitled (McAfee & Brynjolfsson, 2012). Internet usage is increasing, and data storage is increasing, a trend that also brings a physical distribution, the Internet's physical dimension. This trend creates new business opportunities. A practical case dealing with all of these areas is Facebook’s data centers based in Luleå, which is a multi-million dollar venture. This thesis focuses on who took advantage of the business opportunity, identified an increased demand for data storage and got Facebook to establish itself in Luleå. The intention is to describe the person's entrepreneurial approach. The work is divided according to a two-stage development. The first phase is to identify the person and then describe their entrepreneurial approach. In terms of methodology, a qualitative study was conducted with a deductive approach. The study has a descriptive design and the primary collection tool has been semi-structured interview. The entrepreneurial approach is described by four phases, from preparatory work to completion, where various entrepreneurial factors of each phase are indicated. This entrepreneurial approach is extensively discussed in the conclusion of the thesis, but it can be summarized as follows: Phases – Entrepreneurial factors: 1. Preparatory work phase – Relationships, Breaking new ground, and Decision. 2. Planning Phase – Decision, and Speed & abrupt shifts. 3. Implementation phase – Relationships, and Goal drive. 4. Completion/evaluation phase – Breaking new ground, and Goal drive.

Full textJag vill genom denna uppsats ta reda på vilka likheter och olikheter som finns mellan Lars Levi Læstadius och Peter Wieselgren. Dessa två präster levde på 1800-talet, de var oerhört hängivna av att vilja bekämpa brännvinet som förstörde och skapade ett sånt elände för människorna.
Både Læstadius och Wieselgren ansåg att alkoholmissbruket måste angripas från roten för det var den som framförallt orsakade allt lidande hos människorna.
Læstadius ansåg att det moraliska fördärvet var orsaken till alla laster och för att komma åt det hela, så måste det lyftas upp på en högre front nämligen den kristna tron som ger människan större livskvalitet.
Wieselgren ansåg att spritmissbruket och okunnigheten hos människorna var orsaken till allt lidande, och att ett moralisk socialt saneringsarbete behövdes, för att komma åt det onda. Han tog kyrkorådet till hjälp och det infördes bland annat sträng kyrkotukt. Hjälpte inte förmaningarna, så blev den försumlige inkallad till kyrkorådet.
Læstadius och Wieselgrens livsuppgift blev att föra en kamp mot detta missbruk. De blev båda hatade, mordhotade och det väcktes åtal mot dem, men de lät sig inte skrämmas till tystnad, vare sig av överhet eller andra. De lyckades också med sin hårda kamp. De krävde absolut nykterhet när de bildade var för sig sin andra nykterhetsförening. Nykterhetsföreningar kom så att bildas på olika håll i landet och detta kom att betyda mycket för folkets moraliska och etiska fostran.

Full textThe aim of this study is to investigate colonization processes and population and agricultural development during the 16th century. The studied geographical area consists of the northern part of the northernmost province of Sweden of that time, Västerbotten. During this period, this part of Sweden consists of four parishes, from the south to the north: Piteå, Luleå, Kalix and Torneå. The area constitutes a bailiwick (county administrative division) of its own, the northern bailiwick of Västerbotten. The geographical area studied in this thesis is today’s County of Norrbotten below the border of Lappmarken and Torneå Municipality in Finland.
By the middle of the 16th century the region is an established and developed agricultural district. The average farm’s acreage is nearly three acres. The differences between the parishes are considerable, however. Besides arable farming and cattle farming, fishing is important.
Studying land colonization, settlements and population in 16th century Sweden means being limited mainly to one kind of source, namely bailiff accounts (fogderäkenskaper). These accounts consist of cadastres (land registers of rent and revenue), registers of other ordinary and extraordinary taxes, and, from the end of 1560s, the tithe registers. This collection of registers constitutes the bailiffs’ accounts of incomes and expenses and is an expression of the increased control exerted by the Crown over production and private wealth in the country.
An important task has been to check the quality of the sources for the study. Quality means in this context up-to-dateness and completeness. An investigation of the sources shows that they were regularly updated. By comparing the different registers the completeness can be examined, i.e. the extent to which they correctly follow the instructions, “undervisningar”.
These circumstances, the up-to-dateness and completeness of the sources, guarantee the possibility of describing, in a correct manner, the real situation in the region regarding the land colonization, settlements and population.
Placing the development in the studied region in a geographical context has been important. Some studies have been performed using the cadastre registers, many of which were included in the Nordic project studying the late medieval desertion of the colonization process in Sweden during the 16th century, Nordiska ödegårdsprojektet.
A feature of the development in Sweden during the 16th century is two periods of growth and a weak or retrograde period in between. A common pattern in the settlement development is a strong growth in 1540s and 1550s. In the late 1560s and during the 1570s the settlements are weakening, stagnating or decreasing. From 1580 and onwards, another growth of farms is established again, to a greater or smaller extent.
The increase in the population is generally considered to be the main cause of the land colonization process in the 1540s and 1550s. The weaker development of the next two decades is related to the Nordic Seven Years’ War (Nordiska sjuårskriget), with its great negative impact on many areas in Sweden. After a fast recovery the colonization process starts again and is in progress for the rest of the century.
A closer study of the situation in two parishes in Norrbotten shows that the two periods of growth have different qualities. The first period, during the 1540s and 1550s, illustrates traditional progress through colonization. The growth consists of farm divisions and the establishment of new farms. The development of new farms follows a certain pattern. By clearing land the farm is established, a first registration is made, and the farm obtains tax release for a few years and is finally entered in the land register (jordeboken). During this period the agricultural sector is growing when both new and already established farms contribute by land reclamation.
During the second period of growth the farm division process continues and new farms are established. However, this time the new farms are generally of another kind. They are very small and are established mainly by detaching parts or buying land from older farms, not by land reclamation. The agricultural sector is not growing, with some exceptions, during this period. Furthermore, the population increase during the earlier period, which seemed to “force” the agricultural sector to grow, is not effective this time. Instead, during this second period, a population decrease takes place.
The general picture of the settlement development in Sweden during the 16th century is growth. The differences between regions concern the strength of the total growth of farms during this century. In Norrbotten the development is weaker than in most other regions in Sweden. The western part of the country seems on the whole to have a stronger growth than the eastern and northern part. It should be observed, however, that areas situated very close to each other can show quite a different progress.

Full textFöljande examensarbete omfattar en fallstudie av Bro norr om Söderströmsbron, en tunnelbanebro i stål med fyra spår. Den byggdes 1956 som en del av förbindelsen mellan station Gamla stan och station Slussen i Stockholm. I fallstudien, som är ett samarbete mellan KTH och SL, ingår att bedöma brons dynamiska egenskaper, tillstånd avseende utmattning samt att skapa en finita elementmodell av bron. Vidare begränsas fallstudien till brokonstruktionen för det spår som går närmast slussen mellan Mälaren och Saltsjön, och som i dagsläget utgör gröna tunnelbanelinjen mot Farsta strand, Hagsätra och Skarpnäck.
Under 2005 trafikerades det aktuella spåret under högtrafik av 30 tåg i timmen och under lågtrafik av 15 tåg i timmen. När tåg passerar visar bron stora förskjutningar och glapp mellan sliprar och underliggande stålkonstruktion. Dessa förskjutningar skapar spänningar i stålet och avgörande för brons tillstånd avseende utmattning är antalet skadliga spänningsvidder vid kritiska snitt som inträffat sedan brons färdigställande.
Dagens spänningsvidder mäts med hjälp av töjningsgivare placerade i fältmitt. Mätningen har utförts av KTH, avdelningen för Brobyggnad i samband med examensarbetet. Av intresse är utmattningsrisk för svetsad anslutning mellan lång- och tvärbalkar. Utmattningsrisken beräknas dels med typiserade spänningskollektiv enligt BSK 07, dels med verkliga spänningskollektiv enligt Palmgren-Miners delskadehypotes. Enligt båda metoderna konstateras utmattningshållfastheten vara uttömd, med reservation för förbandsklasser och partialkoefficienter. Kollektivparametern κ enligt BSK 07, vilken vid dimensionering beaktar spänningskollektivets form, uppskattas vara närmare 2/3 än SL:s nuvarande värde 5/6.
Ur responsen från givarna konstateras att den dynamiska förstoringsfaktorn vid 60 km/h varierar mellan 0.63 och 1.43, vilket visar att brons respons har ett stort dynamiskt innehåll.
En finita elementmodell skapas i Abaqus med hjälp av Matlab, med syftet att komplettera resultat från mätningar. I modellen studeras töjning, vertikal förskjutning och acceleration, dynamisk förstoringsfaktor och egenmoder. Den statiska responsen för modell och bro konstateras vara snarlik.
This thesis includes a case study of the Bro norr om Söderströmsbron, a steel subway bridge with four rail tracks. The bridge was built in 1956 as a part of the connection between the two subway stations Gamla stan and Slussen in Stockholm. The case study, which is a collaboration between KTH and SL, includes an evaluation of the dynamic properties of the bridge, in which condition it is regarding fatigue and the creation of a finite element model of the bridge. The case study is limited to the construction carrying the rail track closest to the lock between Mälaren and Saltsjön, and now represents the green subway line towards Farsta strand, Hagsätra and Skarpnäck.
In 2005, the train frequency during rush hour was 30 trains per hour and during low traffic 15 trains per hour. When a train crosses, the bridge shows large displacements and gaps between the sleepers and the underlying steel structure. The displacements cause stresses in the steel and crucial to the bridge fatigue state is the number of damaging stress ranges that have occurred since the opening of the bridge.
The current stress variations are measured using strain gauges positioned in the mid-span. Measurements were carried out by KTH, division of Structural Design & Bridges, during this thesis. Of key interest is a welded edge between the main- and crossbeams. The risk of fatigue is calculated using standardised stress ranges according to BSK 07 and Palmgren-Miners cumulative damage theory. According to both methods, the fatigue life of the bridge is exceeded, with reservations to the detail category and partial coefficients. The stress collective parameter κ according to BSK 07, which in design accounts for the distribution of the stress collective, is estimated closer to 2/3 than SL’s present value of 5/6.
According to the strain gauges, the dynamic amplification factor at 60 km/h varies between 0.63 and 1.43, indicating that the bridge’s response has a large dynamic content.
A finite element model is created in Abaqus using Matlab, with the purpose of complementing results from the measurements. In the model, the strain, vertical displacements and acceleration, dynamic amplification and natural modes are studied. The static response of the model and bridge were found to be similar.

Full textThe hardiness of a plant is often strongly associated with the recommendations on the climate zone map. However, it is not only the climate zone recommendation that determines whether a plant is cold hardy enough to survive and thrive at a certain location. By sending a questionnaire to local growers in northernmost Sweden I wanted to investigate how the climate zone map is used and how well it works in the northern part of Sweden. Most growers were positive to the recommendations in the map. However, they pointed out that the climate zone map does not take into account the genetic heritage, the local microclimate and the requirements of the location on which the plant is supposed to grow, which are all very important. Growers mentioned that more information about how to create a good micro climate for a certain plant in a certain zone would be very useful. From the questionnaire I have put together a list of plants that growers in northern Sweden have grown outside the recommendation from the climate zone map. And by using information from the growers together with information from my literature study I have created a suggestion on an updated climate zone map to see if it is possible to raise knowledge and increase plant selection in northernmost Sweden.

Full textThis essay aims to create insight and knowledge about tourist discourses regarding nature, by examining which images and representations about nature in the Swedish national parks that are highlighted in tourist brochures, how human-nature relations are produced, but also what implications it can induce. With a delimited focus on nine national parks that meet the criteria of mountain nature or include reindeer herding Sami villages. Through a visual discourse analysis as a method, the pictures, texts, and maps of the tourist brochures have been analyzed with the application of Foucault's discourse perspective where power, knowledge, and truth are central concepts. The result of this study is that the discursive formations consist of three main features of nature. It is presented as something exotic, externally, sublime, untouched, and prehistoric, but also as an accessible and romanticized place for the tourist, and at the same time as something special for Sweden, which symbolizes its identity. The tourist is portrayed as a temporary visitor, whose relation to nature is distinguished from Sami people, who instead are presented as "natural" attractions for the tourist. All in all, this study results in a refilling of a knowledge gap regarding the presentation of representations by various practitioners about Swedish national parks, while at the same time demonstrating similar representations that previous studies have resulted in.

Full textSustainability work has become increasingly more important for companies in today’s society. This type of work can be very demanding for small and medium-sized enterprises (SME), as they do not have the same resources as large companies. To succeed with sustainability work, the transition towards sustainability needs to be met up with learning to facilitate the process. Previous research is inadequate on how advisors in projects learn and teach others about sustainability. Therefore it becomes interesting to create an understanding of how advisors’ learning processes in a sustainability project can strengthen a transition towards sustainability in SME. When the purpose of this study is achieved it creates an understanding of how advisors can contribute to a transition toward sustainability within the companies. To achieve the purpose a qualitative method was conducted with semi-structured interviews. The respondents consisted of advisers and others involved in the project Konkurrenskraft 2030 (K2030), which is led by Energikontor Norr. The method choice made it possible to create a deeper understanding of how the advisers’ learning processes can affect the transition process towards sustainability in SMEs. The result of the study shows that the project involves several different types of learning and that this is central to this type of project. The study shows that the advisors can facilitate the transition process in small and medium sized enterprises, but it requires that the individuals in the project need to be open towards learning in order to be effective. The study also showed that the more advisors learned during the project, the easier they could handle the different types of companies. Thus making the offer better for the companies.

Full textSyftet med denna uppsats har varit att undersöka hur politiker producerar, reproducerar och utmanar föreställningar om Norrland via de rikstäckande tidningarna Aftonbladet, Dagens Nyheter samt Svenska Dagbladet. Med ett material bestående av 60 nyhets- samt debattartiklar så har materialet analyserats efter den diskursteoretiska analysmetoden The logics approach, även kallat logikperspektivet. Studien har visat att politiker tenderar att diskutera Norrland med grund i frågor beträffande ekonomi, miljö och klimat samt demografiska förutsättningar. Även om politikerna ofta representerar Norrland som ett avlägset och ruralt område, vilket förstärker föreställningar om Norrland som en döende och problematisk plats, så visar studien försök till att omdefiniera problematiken från att vara "Norrlands" bekymmer till att ses som en nationell angelägenhet. Genom att koppla samman olika subjektspositioner så försöker politikerna konstruera känslor av tillhörighet och igenkännande hos läsarna för att på så sätt förhindra platsen från att bli det rurala område som politikerna redan representerar det som.

Full textThe demands for environmental and sustainability in the construction industry have increased as well as the awareness of how natural resources are used. This has made environmental issues more and more important (Swedish Construction Service, 2016a). The construction and real estate sector accounts for about 18 percent of Sweden's annual greenhouse gas emissions (Boverket, 2018b). In addition, Boverket (2017a) estimates that 600,000 new homes are needed till the year of 2025, this leads to emissions that are not negligible in a life-cycle perspective. The purpose of this thesis is to present if and how LCA (Life-cycle assessment) is currently used in decision making by builders, in this case real estate companies. The aim is to be able to present how LCA is used by builders active in the northen region of Sweden, why or why not LCA is used. The objective is also to present the pros and cons of using LCA in decision making when building multi-family houses. The work includes an interview study of seven real estate companies operating in the north of Sweden. The result obtained is a summary of the collected data from the interviews and the theory that exists in the subject. The study's conclusion is that there are currently few real estate companies in Norr- and Västerbotten, as well as throughout Sweden, using LCA. In this interview study, it is one real estate company that uses LCA. The real estate company uses LCA to develop its product and production and would like to be at the forefront of environmental issues. This real estate company only sees advantages of using LCA. And the literature study shows that the benefits are many, among other things, it shows where the biggest environmental impact is in a building's life cycle and can contribute to development. However, the incentive to use LCA is low. This is mainly due to the fact that knowledge about LCA within their own organization is low and many find it difficult to understand and implement LCA. These are also some of the disadvantages found in this study, LCA is time consuming and it is difficult to get reliable data. For those companies that do not use LCA, at the present time, there is a will to start using the tool if user friendliness is improved and the economic benefits can be demonstrated. All real estate companies interviewed are convinced that environmental issues will be increasingly important in the future and believe that LCA will be a part of achieving sustainable construction. Proposals for further studies are to map more real estate companies, such as real estate companies operating in major cities where more and larger construction projects occur. The real estate company that uses LCA is using industrial construction, it would have been interesting to study if LCA is easier to applicate to an industrial building concept.

Full textWhat are the secrets among the world’s best and most successful businesses? What do these high-performing companies, organisations and sports teams do to create successful cultures that live up to the vision, goals and values that have been designed? In a pilot study carried out for this thesis by the study’s author at the investigated case company Skanska Sverige AB in 2019, key interviewees assessed the need to “reach out” with their guidelines and get their employees to follow vision, goals and values to be a highly central and significant knowledge. This problem does not only occur in the researched case company Skanska, but researchers such as Schein (2004) and Wadström (2014) point out that it is among the biggest challenges and difficulties in today’s organisations. The purpose of this study is to increase knowledge and understanding of how companies can make their employees live up to the company’s vision, goals and values. The Master thesis involves an extensive literature study that examines what previous research shows how companies can make their employees live up to the company’s vision, goals and values. From the literature study, an analysis model is developed, which is used as a theoretical frame of reference for the qualitative interview study conducted on 18 employees at Skanska Väg och Anläggning Norr Umeå. The qualitative interview study is semi-structured in order to capture opinions and experiences from the respondents’ own perspective. The results from the interview study are then compared and analysed with support of the literature from previous research. The results of the study show that both previous research and the employees’ perspective from the interview study illustrates that companies can create more favourable conditions for their employees to live up to the company’s vision, goals and values by allowing employees to experience responsibility and participation in their work role. The leaders’ physical and mental presence also proves in previous research and in the interview respondents’ perspective to be essential in companies’ efforts to get their employees to live up to the company’s vision, goals and values, as the leaders are a role model and symbol for the actions and behaviours in the company. Previous research and the study’s interview results also show that a company that really has ambitions to live up to its promises must break down vision, goals and values into something concrete, what people should do, namely behaviours, and these must be continuously followed up. A key to getting their employees to live up to the company’s vision, goals and values is shown by the literature study to be in the increase in the numbers of qualitative follow-up meetings, feedback meetings and experience feedback meetings in relation to planning meetings. In addition to a well-developed strategy, it is important to look at the actual result, find out what can be done better and based on this, correct and develop an ideal situation that makes the tangible difference. Consequently, it would have been interesting to see future research study how implementation and streamlining of follow-up and experience feedback can be carried out in an organisation.

Full textKlimatförändringarna värmer upp Norden och utsätter dess enorma kolsänkor inte bara för skogsbrandstörningar utan också för övervintrande (eller zombie-) bränder. Dessa gamla sommarbränder kan spendera månader under ytan, gömda under skydd av snötäcke, brännande enorma mängder kol, som sedan släpps ut i atmosfären, vilket ytterligare förvärrar klimatförändringarna. För att förhindra dessa potentiella megaeldar (eng. megafires) måste områden med benägenhet för dess inträffande identifieras så att detektions- och hanteringsprotokoll kan införas. Med hjälp av ett GIS-tillvägagångssätt försöker denna uppsats att identifiera alla områden i Sverige som för närvarande är i riskzonen för zombiebränder och alla områden som kan vara i riskzonen 2050 med hjälp av en RCP8.5-scenarioprojektion. Baserat på rumsliga och klimatvariabler fann resultaten att 88 km2 mark för närvarandet är i riskzonen, varav 20,19 km2 är mest benägen på grund av milda vinter- och vårväder. I 2050-projiceringen visade sig de flesta regioner ha en minskad risk på grund av varmare vintrar som minskade snötäckningen. Men tre län i norr hade en ökad risk på grund av vårens tidigare ankomst. Klimatprognoser innehåller fortfarande osäkerheter och hur den årliga nederbörden i Sverige kommer att påverkas av klimatförändringen varierar kraftigt mellan olika modeller, vilket naturligtvis påverkar sannolikheten för framtida skogsbränder och således zombiebränder. Det finns ett behov av mer forskning kring zombiebränder, särskilt med avseende på snödjup och täckning och hur detta påverkar mekanismerna för pyrande förbränning och pyrande-till-flammande-övergång. Denna uppsats är ett exempel på hur regioner kan utvärderas för faror om de har viss rumslig och tidsmässig förutsägbarhet.

Full textThe cremation process is both industrial and emotional. Thus, a crematorium must facilitate one primary course of events while also handling – filtering – secondary emotional stress generated by that very activity. But should the building as filter be a solid wall or a light veil between the dead and the living? How does one define an appropriate degree of permeability and transparency? And how do you cater to the well-being of both mourners and professionals? The architecture of crematoria has, since its introduction in the mid 19th century, evolved along with society's increasing individualism, specialization and secularization. Exploring aesthetic expressions and styles from classicism and national romanticism to brutalism, the intentions have been, in various degrees and combinations, ideological, symbolic, theatrical, functional and pragmatic. However, some features seem to be predominant. Strict geometry, material heaviness, dramatic lighting and the use of nature as a work of art are some examples, as well as processional, choreographed spatial movement and mystification of the cremation itself. These features are not only striking, atmospheric and beautiful; they are also represent power and distinction. The rooms constitute a didactic system of codes and values, silently mediated through physical elements. Irrespective of the architect's ambition and intentions – rhetorical monumentality or suggestive modesty – the spaces seem to evoke feelings of awe and wonder. Firm and unyielding, the buildings dodge any critical questioning. Given today's multitude of coexisting and continually developing philosophies of life and death, a modern crematorium should not pretend to be true, permanent or eternal. The only truth is that in death all men are equal, no matter the circumstances of our passing. This project therefore explores a non-authoritative architecture that does not reproduce spatial or aesthetical norms and conventions. An architecture that does not dictate certain moods or behaviours; that celebrates the extraordinary while attending to everyday life; that conveys dignity and stability without being imposing.

Full textNorth Sea saithe (Pollachius virens) has high economic value for European fisheries. In recent years, North Sea saithe abundance has decreased, while abundance of hake (Merluccius merluccius), which was rarely fished in the North Sea, has increased dramatically in the area. This work investigate the nature of the ecological interactions between saithe and hake in the North Sea, in order to understand if recent hake emergence in this area could explain, at least partially, the recent decline of the saithe stock. The results obtained during this research suggested competitive interactions between saithe and hake predators in the area. In addition, this investigation revealed potential negative effects of hake emergence in the North Sea on the resident saithe stock. Therefore, hake emergence in the North Sea must be taken into account when managing commercial species fisheries, the sustainability of which may be threatened by this up-coming predator. Finally, the results obtained within this PhD research thesis highlight the importance of hake as an up-coming predator and competitor in the North Sea, and provide the necessary basis for further investigations of hake potential ecological and economic function in this exploited ecosystem
