The topic of this thesis is system identification and control of two different internal combustion engines, Partially Premixed Combustion (PPC) engine and a more conventional Combustion Ignited (CI) diesel engine. The control of both engines is aimed to emission reduction and to increase the efficiency. There is an introduction to the internal combustion engine, as well as theory used about system
This master thesis tackles the problem of limited computing resources on a camera that is executing computing applications together with image acquisition and streaming. The thesis was carried out at Axis Communications in cooperation with the Department of Automatic Control at Lund University. The problem of limited resources on an Axis camera is handled by a two part solution where a resource m
We investigate the difficulty of integrating disparate, heterogeneous systems which have not been designed to work together. Such difficulties may arise from differences in communication protocols or data formats, making an in- tegration effort largely manual and labor intensive. The investigation is done in the context of integrating two different robot systems, one mobile platform running ROS (R
Syfte Uppsatsens syfte är att belysa förhållandet mellan varumärkens och konsumenters genusidentitet och brand image för att därmed bidra till teoribildningen kring begreppet brand image. Metod Studien ämnar skapa en förståelse utifrån konsumenters perspektiv snarare än att förklara dem. Den ontologiska ståndpunkten konstruktionism har därför tillämpats tillsammans med ett tolkningsperspektivPurpose The purpose of the study is to illuminate the relationship between brands’ gender identity, consumers’ gender identity and brand image in order to give a theoretical contribute within the brand image area. Methodology Our aim is to create an understanding from a consumer perspective rather than explain it; hence the ontological view constructionism has been applied together with an int
In developing countries across the world people are depending on rivers as a source of water for drinking, cooking and bathing. This is also the case in the Indonesian part of the island Borneo where this study was made. The largest river is the river Kapuas which, together with its tributaries, supplies the area with water. The hydrology of these rivers is changing and the quality of the water in
Disturbances such as wildfires are key players involved in the shape, structure and function of the ecosystems. Fire is rarely included in Dynamic global vegetation models due to their difficulty in implementing its processes and impacts associated. Therefore, it is essential to understand the variables and processes involved in fire, and to evaluate the strengths and weaknesses before going forwa
The main aim of this pilot study was to explore inner representations of attachment in single women in Sweden that were planning to have children, that were expecting children or that have had children on their own through assisted reproduction (donor insemination). Experiences of social acceptance regarding their choice to parent alone were also examined. The methods used were The Adult Attachmen
International Humanitarian Law has at its core distinctions and classifications: The sphere between jus in bello and jus ad bellum. Between Civilian and Combatant. Between proportional and indiscriminate attack. Between acceptable and prohibited targets. However the two most central distinctions in International Humanitarian Law are the distinction between War and Peacetime and between Internati
Att beivra brott mot EU:s konkurrensregler har länge varit en syssla för EU- Kommissionen som genom offentligrättsliga sanktioner både utrett, dömt och straffat bland annat företag verksamma i kartellsamarbeten. Det offentligrättsliga sanktionssystemet har under de senaste åren fått konkurrens från en allt mer utbyggd civilrättslig sanktionsmöjlighet. Detta arbete kommer undersöka en av de berörinThe punishment of competition law violations within the EU have for the longest time been the task endowed upon the Commission of the European Union. The Commission have utilised public enforcement to investigate, try and punish cartel agreements amongst other things. The public enforcement system has in recent years come under competition from a steadily evolving private enforcement system. This
In the dynamic economic environment where knowledge is vastly distributed companies can no longer rely on their own research and are pushed to utilize outside sources to sustain growth. At the same time food industry involves large number of horizontal and vertical relationships, the very dynamic nature of these relationships play role in innovation. In order to fully capitalize on supplier-c
Utifrån Gagnon och Simons teori om sexuella script samt ett intersektionellt perspektiv så analyseras sex och sexualitet i sex romaner inom romantisk fiktion.

Violence against children occurs worldwide despite explicit prohibitions. In Article 19 in the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child there is a prohibition against physical and psychological violence towards children. States shall take all appropriate legislative, administrative, social and educational measures to protect the child. According to Article 23 (4) the convention state
Grooming är en systematisk process, som för det första kränker barn och för det andra möjliggör att barn kan utsättas för fysiska övergrepp. Barn blir lurade särskilt av gärningsmän då de inte har samma skyddsmekanismer och riskmedvetande som en vuxen person. Kommunikationsteknologins framväxt under 2000-talet har utökat möjligheterna för vuxna som vill ta kontakt med barn i sexuellt syfte. År 200Grooming is a systematic process, which firstly violates children, and secondly enables children to be subjected to physical forms of abuse. Children are deceived especially as they lack the same psychological safety mechanisms and risk awareness as that of an adult. The growth of communications technology during the 21st century has increased the possibilities for adults that seek contact with ch
County museums were for a long time one of the main actors in Swedish cultural resource management (CRM) archaeology. In the late 1990s, however, Swedish CRM archaeology faced a new system: a tender-alike procedure. The introduction of competition into CRM archaeology has produced a series of positive, as well as a series of negative, consequences. One effect is that several county museums have ce
Vid sidan av civilprocess och skiljeförfarande kan kommersiella parter av-tala om att en tvist dem emellan ska avgöras av en inhyrd konsult. Om tvis-ten genomförs som att judiciellt förfarande benämns förfarandet i den här uppsatsen privatdomarförfarande. Konsulten benämns privatdomare. I civilprocessen och i skiljeförfarandet kräver lagregler att en part ska ha möjlighet att få uttala sig innan Instead of using litigation or arbitration, commercial parties may hire a con-sultant to settle their dispute. If the dispute resolution method is judicial in its character, this thesis defines it as private judging (privatdomarför-farande). The consultant is called a private judge (privatdomare). Litigation and arbitration have rules granting the parties to a dispute the right to prior notice and
Reglerna och läran om rättskraften är ett av de mest omdiskuterade ämnena inom svensk civilprocessrätt. Det råder ett systematiskt samband mellan RB 17:11 och 13:3 som är av vikt för att förstå gällande rätt. Förståelsen för rättskraftsläran och gällande rätt kompliceras dock av ett antal rättsfall. Kontentan av praxis är att vissa alternativa yrkanden prekluderas av domens rättskraft och det kan
This thesis is located at the intersection of two concepts: accountability in and communication for development. Two review chapters provide an overview of their general reception in the development discourse, relevant definitions and the significance both concepts have gained for the work of development NGOs. Within each concept the thesis focuses on a particular aspect: downward accountability a
Russia have recently started to reassert themselves in their near abroad. With their annexation of the Ukrainian Crimea peninsula following an independence referendum other post-Soviet states have been looking at their Russian minorities nervously for signs of similar separatist tendencies. This paper will examine if there are valid reasons for these fears. To do this a comparative study has been
