In modern day society the increase of data generation and transfer has been an issue that researchers are working on. This generated and shared data might have a different purpose but one thing is certain, the reception. This communication can cover continents, countries, cities or even just a few meters. For the purpose of the later, personal area networks (PAN) have been created with a main focu
Like many other lakes, Lake Ringsjön in Sweden has a long history of eutrophication problems. Eutrophication of lakes is mainly due to surplus of phosphorus. Most phosphorus reaches Lake Ringsjön from adjacent watercourses. In order to initiate action plans to reduce phosphorus concentrations in the lake, it is of great importance to know which watercourses have high phosphorus concentrations. Pho
Abstract The aim of the thesis was to examine whether or not the elicited imitation test can be used as a valid tool for measuring developmental sequences of grammatical structures in the production of L2 Swedish derived from the Processability Theory (PT, Pienemann, 1998). The thesis aimed to answer the following questions: Will the participants follow the predicted implicational pattern of the d
This 30 credits master degree project focused on creating a product design with the aim to expand Arduino’s maker community to reach young girls. The goal was to design a wearable merchandise for Arduino #include, which would inspire girls to explore STEM and learn about technology and programming. Arduino is a open source hardware company and Arduino #include is an inclusivity programme to celebr
Sowing wildflower strips is a commonly applied agri-environmental scheme in agricultural landscapes used to mitigate the ongoing decline in pollinator diversity and abundance. Flower strips can be implemented as either annual or perennial plantings to promote biodiversity and/or ecosystem services. As different objectives may require different seed mixtures, this may impact how various pollinator
Grov kvinnofridskränkning infördes i svensk rätt 1998 för att möta ett rättsskyddsbehov som tidigare straffbestämmelser inte förmådde tillgodose. Syftet var att straffrättsligt synliggöra den systematiska karaktären av våld och kränkningar som många kvinnor utsätts för i nära relationer. Genom att kriminalisera ett mönster av gärningar, snarare än enstaka händelser, har lagstiftaren försökt fånga Gross violation of a woman’s integrity was introduced into Swedish law in 1998 to address a legal protection gap that previous criminal provisions failed to cover. The aim was to legally acknowledge the systematic nature of abuse and repeated violations that many women are subjected to in close relationships. By criminalising a pattern of acts rather than isolated events, the legislator intended t
This thesis provides an ethnographic analysis of civil society participation in the peace negotiations between the Colombian government and the insurgent group, the National Liberation Army (ELN). It examines how civil society actors navigated, engaged with, and attempted to influence the participatory process at the heart of the peace talks—negotiating internal and external power relations while
Background: This study investigates gaze behaviour in child dialogues. In earlier studies the authors have investigated the use of requests for clarification and responses in order to study the co-creation of understanding in a referential communication task. By adding eye tracking, this line of research is now expanded to include non-verbal contributions in conversation. Aims: To investigate
The investigation is concentrated on two important quantities – the Strouhal number and the mean base suction coefficient, both measured at the mid-span position. Reynolds numbers from about 50 to 4 × 104 were investigated. Different aspect ratios, at low blockage ratios, were achieved by varying the distance between circular end plates (end plate diameter ratios between 10 and 30). It was not pos
BACKGROUND The enteric nervous system (ENS) is situated along the entire gastrointestinal tract and is divided into myenteric and submucosal plexuses in the small and large intestines. The ENS consists of neurons, glial cells, and nerves assembled into ganglia, surrounded by telocytes, interstitial cells of Cajal, and connective tissue. Owing to the complex spatial organization of several intercon
Background: Abiraterone acetate (AA) is an androgen biosynthesis inhibitor shown to prolong life in patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) already treated with chemotherapy. AA treatment results in dramatic declines in prostate-specific antigen (PSA) in some patients and no declines in others, suggesting the presence of molecular determinants of sensitivity in tumors. Objective:
Background: The effect of interleukin 17-inhibitors on anterior uveitis (AU) in spondyloarthritis (SpA) is poorly understood. This study aimed to compare the risk of AU during treatment with secukinumab versus tumour necrosis factor inhibitors (TNFi). Methods: Patients with SpA starting secukinumab or a TNFi 2015 through 2018 were identified in the Swedish Rheumatology Quality Register. Occurrence
Light stability of different spray dried microencapsulated powders containing the natural colorant bixin was evaluated for 30 days. The encapsulating materials evaluated were sucrose, maltodextrin, and mixtures including gum arabic and pectin as encapsulation enhancers. The photostability of two sets of encapsulated material was compared: one containing purified bixin, and one being an annatto ext
ISLAND, A SITE SPECIFIC AND HUMAN SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE ABOUT WHAT IT MEANS TO BELONG (VIDEO ESSAY: 22 MINUTES)ABSTRACTThe video essay disseminates the work Eyja (island), a site specific, participatory performance from autumn 2020 performed in Hrísey an Island off the north coast of Iceland. Island is a part of an artistic research project: How little is Enough? Sustainable Methods of Performance
This work presents the development and evaluation of a Direct Membrane Filtration (DMF) concept for municipal wastewater treatment, integrating microsieving, microfiltration/ultrafiltration (MF/UF), and downstream polishing with activated carbon. DMF enables the efficient separation of particulate organic matter directly from raw wastewater, producing a retentate suitable for enhanced biogas produ
Non-technical summary Agriculture provides many benefits to people, such as producing food and creating jobs in rural areas, but it can also have negative impacts on the environment. We analysed existing monitoring indicators for the European Union’s Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) to evaluate whether the CAP is effectively achieving multiple social and environmental goals. We found that the curr
Popular Abstract in Swedish I Sverige och Norden har elproduktion traditionellt skett med huvudsakligen vattenkraft och kärnkraft. Detta håller dock på att förändras i takt med en allt större vindkraftsutbyggnad. Vindkraften skiljer sig i vissa avseenden från de traditionella produktionsslagen, ett av dessa är hur anslutningen till elnätet är utformad. Detta innebär att vindkraften, sedd från näteTraditionally the predominant generation has been large synchronous generators providing the system inertia. Nowadays when wind power and other non-synchronously connected units displaces this synchronous generation, the system inertia is reduced. Hence higher rate of change of frequency and larger frequency deviations are expected. This thesis deals with the impact on rate of change of frequency
Description: It is stated that even though plentiful of studies over the last decades have been concerned with internationalization in/of higher education, it has not been from the perspectives from the teachers and students and their experiences of aspects of internationalization in relation to their educational context (that is, as a student, and as a teacher). To emphasize the quality dimension
