The main goal of this thesis is to initiate a set of experiments on high-order harmonic generation (HHG) in hollow core waveguides and to verify a higher conversion efficiency of HHG in waveguides compared to classical HHG schemes. High harmonics are in this context electromagnetic waves generated by focusing laser light into a dilute noble gas. The frequency of the thereby generated waves is q t
In 1993 with the entry into force of the Maastricht Treaty, the European Union, for the first time, formally institutionalized foreign policy cooperation in its Treaties. Thence, the Treaties governing the foreign policy of the Union has undergone no less than four reforms, introducing theoretically interesting institutional innovations. Despite this, academia has largely turned its attention towa
The aim of this study was to investigate how the new Non-Invasive Prenatal Diagnosis method (NIPD) is represented within a public policy constituted by The Swedish National Council on Medical Ethics, “SMER”. In order to do this, a post-structural method for policy-analysis called “What’s the problem represented to be”, founded by Carol Lee Bacchi (2009) have been used for the analysis. Through a d
Abstract Migration is a widespread phenomenon in nature, observed in many different taxa. Migration is often caused by changes in food availability, physical conditions and predation risks. Moving is energetically costly, and hence migration is likely to be a trade-off between increased survival and an energetic cost for migrating, the cost could take shape in decreased fecundity and lower body c
Physics-informed neural networks integrate physical laws into machine learning models to solve differential equations. This thesis investigates an inverse physics-informed neural network framework for estimating viscosity in Tetra Pak’s injection molding process, where direct measurements are not possible. By enforcing the Navier-Stokes equations and using sparse velocity and pressure data, a virt
Efterfrågan på förnybar energi är stor och samtidigt minskar den biologiska mångfalden i en aldrig tidigare skådad takt, med förlust av arter och livsmiljöer. Havsbaserad vindkraft ger förnybar energi och påverkar samtidigt lokal marin biologisk mångfald – negativt och positivt. Havsbaserade vindkraftsparker bidrar till effekter såsom undervattensbuller, resuspension och pålagring av sediment, förThe demand for renewable energy is extensive while biodiversity is reclining with unprecedented rates of species and habitat loss. Offshore wind power provides renewable energy while also affecting local marine biodiversity – negatively and positively. The offshore wind power plants contribute to effects such as underwater noise, resuspension and settling of sediment, seabed habitat loss, reef eff
Den 22 juli 2022 infördes ett kronvittnessystem med syfte att öka lagföringen och bryta den rådande tystnadskulturen. Ett system som innefattar en strafflindringsgrund avseende medverkan till utredning av annans brottslighet. Tanken bakom kronvittnessystemet är att öka incitamenten för miss-tänkta att samarbeta för att fler allvarliga och svårutredda brott ska klaras upp. Syftet med uppsatsen är On July 22, 2022, a crown witness system was introduced with the aim of increasing prosecution rates and breaking the prevailing culture of silence. This system includes a basis for sentence reduction regarding participation in the investigation of another's criminal activity. The idea behind the crown witness system is to increase incentives for suspects to cooperate in order to solve more se
The ever evolving automotive industry is pushing for further electrification of the vehicle fleet and the need for new electric drivetrains is therefore in high demand. The Formula Student competitions have also shifted their focus towards electric vehicles where innovative and efficient drivetrains are premiered in the design events. This master thesis work aimed to continue the development of Lu
Uppsatsen behandlar skiljedomstolen Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) som med sitt säte i Lausanne i Schweiz har varit den huvudsakliga globala skiljedomstolen vid sporträttsliga tvister sedan grundandet 1981. CAS har många fördelar som tex snabba och effektiva avgöranden av skiljedomare med kompetens inom sporträtt, men dess opartiskhet och självständighet har ständigt ifrågasatts genom åren. The Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) is a global arbitration court which has ruled in sports law since its establishment in 1981. The arbitration court is the main court in sport disputes and acts as the last resort where subjects of sport can appeal decisions from different sport bodies to which they are bound and that includes an arbitration clause to CAS in the relevant statute. Although pa
This thesis explores the potential for collaboration between architecture students and children in the creative process of architectural design, emphasizing how such partnerships can transform spaces and enrich the built environment. Drawing on research that explores interactions between architecture students and children, as well as by connecting my own memories of this area with those of the chi
A novel method for the fabrication of a light-weight solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) has been evaluated at Catator. This was conducted in order to lower the weight and thus cost of an unmanned aerial vehicle. The main aim for this thesis was to achieve a thin, dense and crack-free electrolyte using a ceramic fibre paper as substrate. This paper was impregnated with colloidal solutions and pressed to
There has been an increasing interest in wastewater treatment in last decades to reduce human footprint. Primarily, anaerobic technology focused on treatment and stabilization of sludge, but now the tendency is to give it a major role in low cost treatment of high/low strength wastewaters, since anaerobic digestion offers energy generation through gas production. Anaerobic membrane bioreactors (A
Optical DNA mapping is a technique for obtaining fast DNA sequence dependent barcodes by observing the stained DNA with a microscope, while it is held stretched inside a nanochannel. Noise plays an important role in optical maps and can significantly change the features in a barcode. One way to reduce random noise is to time average many time frame measurements. This method is efficient but requir
When evaluating future technologies for smart metering and automatic meter reading (AMR) E.ON Elnät Sverige AB has set up a pilot to test a communication technology supplied by Connode AB. Connode have developed a mesh radio solution based on 6LoWPAN, IPv6 over Low Powered Wireless Personal Area Network. By using this technology the communication unit on every meter is acting as both receiver and
Purpose: The 21st century’s focal point of sustainability obliges businesses to adjust their internal resources and operations towards a complex and dynamic environment. Previous research focused on definitional and motivational aspects of dynamic capabilities for sustainability. Hence, a research gap exists in how dynamic capabilities for sustainability are developed. Thus, this study addresses t

Arbetets syfte är att utforska begreppen klimatanpassning, risk och resiliens i förhållande till havsnära stadsutvecklingsprojekt, samt hur planerare och andra kommunala tjänstemän förhåller sig till dessa. För att erhålla en förståelse om det, utfördes en fallstudie av Oceanhamnen i Helsingborg såväl som fem semi-strukturerade intervjuer med planerare och andra kommunala tjänstemän, som har på olThe aim of this paper is to gain an understanding of the concepts of climate adaptation, risk and resilience in relation to coastal and waterfront development, as well as how planners and other municipal officials approach these matters. To gain an understanding of this, a case study was conducted on the new waterfront development called Oceanhamnen in Helsingborg. Furthermore, five semi-structure
Current methods for analysing cellular content require lysing the cells. This can be a drawback when there is a desire to study dynamic processes in the cell as the cells die during the lysis process, and a study over time is not possible. One such example exist inthe field of molecular biology, where diabetes researchers desire to study the insulin geneexpression of beta cells over time, and its d
Role of SADB Kinase in DNA damage repair In the everyday life our bodies are exposed to environmental insults, such as the sunlight, which damage our genes. In addition, the cells in our body also face constant threats from within that causes damage to DNA. These damage can lead to alteration in genes and changes to the DNA molecule that can affect its ability to maintain healthiness. Luckily, ou
