Introduction: The presented work evaluates intermolecular interactions and the solvation free energy between a ground and excited state of an iron complex in saline solution using MD simulations. Background: MD simulations are utilized for estimating the solvation free energy in various systems and concentrations of salt. Any changes in the intermolecular interactions that might influence this are
Kazuo Ishiguro's novel The Remains of the Day has garnered much discussion by literary theorists. Studies have primarily concerned themselves with the main character Mr Stevens and how he interacts with the complex situations around him. A frequent question is of his reliability, as there are indications that he does not give correct interpretations of events. This essay uses poststructuralist
Within clinical diagnostics there is always a need for innovative methods that are rapid, sensitive, and more accurate. In this study two bioanalytical systems have been evaluated for pentraxin 3 (PTX3) detection. PTX3 is a blood biomarker involved in the native immune system that can indicate sepsis, a disease that currently lacks a fast and sensitive analytical method for early detection. Curren
Antimalarial resistance has diminished the control over the spread of malaria worldwide. Initiated by the discovery of ferroquine, organometallic derivatives of chloroquine have been investigated against resistant strains of Plasmodium, but further work needs to be done. The aim of this project is to expand the available candidates of organometallic antimalarial drugs. In this project, six new org
Med en globalt pågående urbanisering har stadsplaneringstrategin förtätning antagits världen över för att skapa urbana miljöer som kan rymma större mängder människor på ett hållbart sätt. Ohållbara konsekvenser har dock uppmärksammats till följd av denna process där grönska och natur är en av stadens dimensioner som har drabbats. Utöver en större värnad av befintliga grönområden inom stadsplanerin
The purpose of this study is to investigate how and to what extent four different sustainability certifications set standards for conserving or promoting biodiversity. This is of importance since there are a large number of certifications of different kinds on the market and as a consumer it can be difficult to navigate among these. How these certifications favor biodiversity is important to inves
Plant Genetic Resource Conservation has been a staple of agricultural development for the past century. Recently, several prominent papers have raised alarm surrounding the development of synthetic biology techniques and their potential to render modern practices and methods of conservation in the global genebank network obsolete. In contrast to traditional crop improvement methods, synthetic biol
The use of artificial intelligence tools is rapidly increasing. Companies are now looking to use AI for recruitment in order to try to ensure a more fair process. This thesis aims to answer the question “How do recruiters in the Swedish IT sector perceive the effectiveness of AI tools in mitigating bias within the recruitment process?”. While some recruiters see AI as a tool to increase object
ABSTRACT Raising temperatures and climate variability have intensified extreme weather events worldwide. These extremes can enhance and trigger possible pest outbreaks. Bark beetle attacks have become a major concern in regions with extensive spruce forest areas. Southeastern Sweden has faced repeated outbreaks resulting in widespread tree loss. By observing historic climate data for the main coun
There is an increased need for floors that can accommodate different type of sensitive equipment [1]. Further, it is recommended to design these floors as high frequency floors (HFF) to be able to meet the stringent vibration criteria [1]. This work used experimental measurements and numerical simulations to gain a deeper knowledge about the measurement, prediction and evaluation of vibrations in
The protection of farmland in property formation relies heavily on one part of the Swedish property formation law, 3 kap. 6 § fastighetsbildningslagen. The overall purpose of this specific law is to secure the national food supply of Sweden but in reality it is only effective regarding the very large agricultural properties which leaves a lot of the actual farmland without protection. As a result
Axis Communications wishes to investigate their PaaS system, Axis Connected Services(ACX), with regard to separation of the tenants of the platform to ensure the implemented separation technologies are used correctly and to find out whether more separation is necessary. ACX ties together several previously separate services under a single umbrella, with the goal of improving usability and increasi
Associative inferences help us connect overlapping events and infer relationships between elements experienced at different times and places allowing the generalization of knowledge to entirely new situations. Recent theoretical accounts suggest that cognitive schemas, large-scale knowledge systems, serve as organizational frameworks for assimilating new but overlapping information and facilitatin
Many reforms have been concluded in India during British Colonial rule however India still has not succeeded in the provision of valuable education across all strata of the society. A lot has been written on the topic and it seems the end conclusion is that British Colonial rule is did not have sufficient fund and personnel to cater the vast county’s needs. Even worse, the gap between rich and po
In the end of March this year (2023) UN’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) declared humans are to blame for the 1,1-degree global warming of our planet. Furthermore, that the Paris Agreement will fail. Our lifestyle and energy consumption are unsustainable, and the emissions must now be reduced within a few years to mitigate the effects of climate change. The transport sector is o
Syftet med denna uppsats är att studera den kroppsliga erfarenheten hos personer som utövar kontaktimprovisation, en improvisationsdans som började utvecklas i USA under 1970-talet. Uppsatsen undersöker också om utövande av kontaktimprovisation kan utgöra en kanal för inlärning av nya sätt att relatera till andra människor och till sociala normer. Den västerländska dualismen betraktar medvetande o
This design thesis centres on repurposing the disused Hydran Silo in the NyHamnen district of Malmö into a new community centre and local landmark within the context of the municipality's proposed redevelopment of the surrounding area. The main themes explored are firstly, finding an appropriate level of intervention and reuse for an historic structure, and secondly, creating a multifunctional
The master thesis Mellanhus, english title: "Interside" explored the connection of thermal environment and the architecture of dwellings in a theoretical investigation coupled with a design proposal for a new housing area in Lund. It starts from a regard of dwelling space as not just contained to the comfort of the own home but in between the buildings of the neighbourhood. A disregard
