Grön vätgas har lagts fram som en lösning på en av vår tids största utmaningar: Att klara av världens energiförsörjning samtidigt som de fossila bränslena avvecklas. Framför allt i sektorer som industriell kemikalieproduktion och långdistans-transport, där övergången till förnybar elektricitet är svårare. Grön vätgas produceras genom elektrolys, där en elektrisk ström driver den annars icke-spontaDue to increasing global energy demands and a need to move away from non-renewable energy sources, green hydrogen is now being considered as a possible replacement for fossil-based energy sources. Especially in “hard-to-abate” sectors, such as steel and petrochemical production, and long-distance transport, where the change to renewable electricity is more difficult. Green hydrogen is produced thr

Female entrepreneurs have been reported to choose self-employment for a variety of reasons, such as the flexibility of combining work and childcare. However, paradoxically female entrepreneurs may face double-bind situation where they are responsible for their business and are primary care givers of the family. Family farming is considered to be a very masculine occupation and the rural agricultur

It is important to the recruitment company that only quality candidates, and the candidates most likely to receive an offer of employment get short-listed to go through the carriers selection process. It is this second phase of the recruitment process, the short-listing of potential candidates, that will be the focus of this thesis. Data has being gathered by the recruitment company through an i

The 4th Industrial Revolution provides a window of opportunity for the developing world and in particular, Sub-Saharan Africa to catch-up in terms of social and economic development by enhancing growth through technological advances. At the same time, it bears the risk for Sub-Saharan Africa to fall even further behind if technological advances cannot be absorbed into the region’s economies. Altho

Denna uppsats, som inriktar sig på prövning av dopingrelaterade ärenden, behandlar intressekonflikten som uppstår mellan idrottsutövarens rätt till en rättvis dopingprocess och idrottens autonomi. Idrottens värld har länge valt att ha en långtgående självbestämmanderätt och de anser att autonomin är en fundamental utgångspunkt för att idrottens verksamhet ska kunna fortsätta på ett fungerande sättThis thesis deals with the conflict of interest arising between an athlete’s right to a fair trial, relating to doping, and the autonomy of sports. The world of sport has claimed a far-going autonomy for a long time. They believe that autonomy is a fundamental ground for the continuance of a well functioning world of sport. Today, the organs of the national sport organisation, Riksidrottsförbundet

Uppsatsens syfte är att åskådliggöra den preventionistiska strömningen inom straffrätten och de uttryck den tar sig för att bekämpa terrorism. Framställningen står på två ben, förfältsgärningar och preventiva tvångsmedel, och de båda delarna redogörs inledningsvis var för sig. Först presenteras de osjälvständiga brottsformerna i allmänhet och sedan redogörs för de specifika gärningar som återfinnsThis thesis is mainly concerned with the inchoate offences and the preventive coercive measures in the Swedish criminal law, with a specific focus on the antiterrorism-legislation. My aim is to visualize the broad deterrentist trend, which in this thesis is called “preventionism”. To do so, the dependent forms of crime in general are presented in the first part, together with the specific inchoate

This study is an attempt to take advantage of a cerebellar model to control a biomimetic arm. Aware that a variety of cerebellar models with different levels of details has been developed, we focused on a high-level model called MOSAIC. This model is thought to be able to describe the cerebellar functionality without getting into the details of the neural circuitry. To understand where this model

Att röra på sig är och har alltid varit en grundförutsättning för vår hälsa och välbefinnande. Dagens samhällsutveckling tyder på en allt mer stillasittande livsstil i form av arbeten, vardagsliv och fritidsaktiviteter. Bristen på fysisk aktivitet är en av de största hälsoutmaningarna idag och individers levnadsvanor har visat en konstaterad anledning till detta. Det har traditionellt sätt varit Movement is and has always been essential for our health and well-being. Today's social development indicates a more sedentary lifestyle in terms of work, everyday life and leisure time activities. The lack of physical activity is one of the biggest health challenges of today and the living habits of individuals have shown a strong reason for this. It has traditionally been the individual'

Today, the use of business intelligence and analytics (BI&A) is an important factor to the success of organizations. There is a need to effectively analyze data in order to gain a competitive advantage and not lose its place in the market. With digitalization the amounts of data are rapidly increasing, leading to new challenges for to be able to handle it in a cost-effective way. At the same t

Arabinoxylan (AX) degrades to (arabino)xylooligosaccharides [(A)XOS] through enzymatic hydrolysis. AX and (A) XOS are considered as dietary fibers and are associated with many health benefits, including immunomodulatory activity. (A)XOS includes both xylooligosaccharides (XOS) and arabino xylooligosaccharides (AXOS). The current research aims to develop a process for production of xylan fibers,

Power consumption has become a leading concern for SoC aimed at 5G products that demand increased functionality, smaller form factors, and low energy footprint. For some EMCA IP blocks a hierarchical clock gating mechanism ensures coarse-grained power savings based on actual processing need but for many blocks this approach cannot be employed. This implies that these blocks have to rely on a high

Examensarbetet undersöker möjligheten att låta avbördningskapaciteten – det vill säga sambandet mellan vattennivå och vattenföring – vara vägledande för bedömning av underhållsbehovet i åar och diken. Den potentiella nyttan av en sådan metod bedöms vara hög då den skulle kunna minska frekvensen av omotiverade underhållsinsatser som påverkar vattenmiljön negativt. Arbetet utgår från ett dikningsförThis master thesis project investigates the possibility of using stage–discharge relationships for evaluation of river maintenance demands. In Sweden, the potential benefit of this type of methodology is considered high, in order to prevent unnecessary maintenance activities which are harmful for the aquatic environment. The study is focused on a ditching organization in Höje River in southern Swe

In order to understand how the Pleistocene glacial cycles have influenced the diversification in the Reed Bunting (Emberiza schoeniclus) subspecies complex, we conducted a multilocus phylogeographic study. We analysed DNA sequences from 32 breeding populations, covering the species’ Palearctic distribution, and used population genetics, phylogenetic and coalescent methods to uncover genetic struct

The purpose of the study was to see how professionals in social work, work with women who have suffered or are at risk of being subjected to violence and oppression. We have chosen to focus on women who are or at risk of honour-related violence, but we are aware that there are many young men who also are exposed to this. The study was conducted using a qualitative approach through interviews. The
