Popular Abstract in Swedish Nanotekniken håller i skrivande stund på att revolutionera samhället med nya innovationer inom exempelvis elektronik och medicin. En viktig del i detta är utvecklingen av nya och förbättrade sätt att avbilda strukturer av nanometerstorlek (en nanometer är en miljarddels meter). Avancerade karakteriseringsmetoder skapar en ökad förståelse för hur nanostrukturer beter sigUltrafast nano-optics is a new and quickly evolving research field centred around the control, manipulation, and application of light on a nanometre and femtosecond scale. This can lead to improved electro-optical devices, more sensitive spectroscopy, and real-time control of chemical reactions. However, understanding the simultaneous nanometre and femtosecond evolution of nano-optical fields requ

Popular Abstract in Swedish Helicobacter pylori och Chlamydia pneumoniae är två mycket vanliga smittämnen i den svenska befolkningen. De vanliga kliniska manifestationerna är magsår respektive luftvägsinfektioner. På senare tid har det också diskuterats huruvida de kan bana väg för sjukdomsmanifestationer även inom andra organsystem. I många fall har de studeras var för sig men betydligt mera sällHelicobacter pylori and Chlamydia pneumoniae are common infectious agents in the Swedish population, causing gastritis ulcers and respiratory infections. The metabolic syndrome is characterised by overweight, insulin resistance, hypertension, diabetes and dyslipidaemia. Sera from a patient cohort (n=531) originally examined in 1987-89 were investigated for previous infection of H. pylori and C. pn

During the latest years the research on the effects of moisture on clothing system has been boosted. New information has revealed phenomena, e.g. “heat pipe” effect with its condensation-evaporation cycle(s) that has not been considered earlier in prediction of physiological reactions or evaluating clothing properties. Considering the material properties, e.g. the evaporative resistance measuremen

Vi har skapat en modell som känner igen vilken underliggande känsla som finns i en konversation på Twitter. För att utvärdera hur bra vår modell är har vi jämfört med BERT, en större modell skapad av Google. Det vetenskapliga fält som handlar om hur datorer behandlar text heter natural language process- ing (NLP). Ett vanligt problem inom NLP är hur datorer ska förstå olika mänskliga känslor. I våWe have constructed a novel neural network architecture called CWE-LSTM (concatenated word-emoji bidirectional long short-term memory) for classify- ing emotions in Twitter conversations. The architecture is based on a combina- tion of word and emoji embeddings with domain specificity in Twitter data. Its performance is compared to a current state of the art natural language process- ing model fro

När läkemedel produceras bildas även en massa biprodukter. Dessa biprodukterna kan många gånger vara mycket skadligare än vad själva läkemedlet gör nytta. Därför renar man upp läkemedel med en process som heter kromatografi. Kromatografi är som ett rör som är fyllt med något typ av sand eller sten. För att sedan rena upp sitt läkemedel låter man sin blandning med produkt och biprodukt åka genom koChromatography was first described in the 1903 by a Russian scientist. Later on chromatography was almost forgotten until the 1940s when two British scientist published a study about liquid chromatography. They were later awarded with the Nobel prize in chemistry for their work in chromatography. Chromatography has since then developed a lot and nowadays several different kinds of liquid chromatog

The construction sector is one of the biggest contributors to global CO2 emissions and buildings account for a significant part of the energy use in Sweden. Population growth in combination with economic development is putting more pressure on the environment, resulting in escalating consumption trends and larger quantities of raw material extraction. Policies and directives are promoting a circul

In many countries, GMO policy-making has been characterised with a lot of controversy, participation and trust being the most pressing issues. The ongoing Ghanaian GMO policy-making is not spared of the controversy. The GMO Bill which was introduced in the Ghanaian Parliament in 2013 remained unpassed amid accusations and counter-accusations between government-led groups and civil society-led anti

My master’s thesis project is an exploration of how a new distributon model could be implemented in a swedish local food chain in order to make local food accessible and attractive to a larger group of people. The interest in local food is increasing rapidly in Sweden. Farmers are turning directly to consumers for increased profit and less pressure from the industry. At the same time consumers ar

Utgångspunkten för examensarbetet är den ökande turismen i fjällvärlden. Med tomt 5:544 i Sälenfjällen som huvudfokus undersöker projektet platsens förutsättningar i klimat, historia och arkitektur samt fjällturismens utveckling under 1900-talet. Analysen ligger sedan grund till en utforskande process i skiss och modell för att nå fram till arkitektoniska principer för att bygga i svensk fjällmiljThis thesis is based in the expanding tourism industry of northern Sweden. Through site 5:544 in Sälenfjällen, the project investigates the conditions in terms of climate, history, and architecture of the area as well as the development of nature tourism in north Sweden in the 20th century. The analysis results in an investigation process through physical models and sketches to reach a set of tect

This paper reports the results of a functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) study that tested predictions on changes in visual word perception. The neural correlates of visual word perception were examined twice over the course of three months. During this interval a group of interpreter students engaged in intense language learning, while a control group completed regular university-level cl

Den 1 juni 2018 infördes ett frivillighetsrekvisit i den svenska våldtäktsbe-stämmelsen i 6 kap 1 § BrB. Det nya rekvisitet innebär att avsaknad av ömse-sidig frivillighet ligger till grund för straffansvar. Målsägandens agerande och hur personen uttryckt frivillighet är av central betydelse för bedömningen. I min uppsats har jag undersökt vilka gränser målsägandens frivillighet ställs inför när dOn June 1, 2018, a voluntariness requirement was introduced in the Swedish rape provision in Chapter 6, Section 1 of the Swedish Penal Code (BrB). The new requirement implies that the absence of mutual voluntariness forms the basis for criminal liability. The actions of the victim and how their expressed voluntariness is assessed are of central importance in the evaluation. In my essay, I have exa

A growing body of evidence suggests that speech recognition is facilitated by rapid activation of possible lexical candidates and subsequent competition and selection. An event-related potential (ERP) component 136-204 ms after word onset, the pre-activation negativity (PrAN), correlates with lexical competition. Further, the increased negativity for low lexical competition correlates with increas

Syfte och frågeställning: ​Syftet med denna studie är att undersöka hur konsumenter upplever historikbaserad annonsering och om denna upplevelse varierar beroende på vilken situation konsumenten befinner sig i. Vidare är det även av intresse att undersöka hur historikbaserad annonsering kan upplevas ha en inverkan på konsumenters vilja till köp samt var, när och på vilket sätt denna inverkan komme

Sedan början av 1990-talet omfattar yrkesutbildningen för tjänst i Svenska kyrkan en grundkurs (SKG) gemensam för de fyra yrkesprofilerna. Denna kurs är förlagd till folkhögskolor runt om i Sverige och kursen pågår under en termin. Syftet med denna uppsats var att undersöka, tolka och analysera deltagarnas upplevelser av Svenska kyrkans grundkurs och folkhögskolan som pedagogisk miljö. I arbetet h

Two methods of computational analysis of DNA barcodes are presented. A DNA barcode is formed by making GC-rich regions of a DNA molecule fluoresce while AT-rich regions remain dark, thus when stretched using nano-channels and viewed in a microscope, the DNA molecule will resemble a barcode with black and white stripes. Because of point-spread functions and pixellation the resolution will be roughl

The subject of this thesis is theoretical examination of freezing phenomena inside fire sprinkler systems during activation at low temperatures in the surroundings. Many sprinkler systems are installed in environments such that they must be operable at subfreezing temperature conditions. During activation of such a system, water is assumed to penetrate a significant distance and without interrupti
