Inom bilindustrin utvecklas kontinuerligt nya sätt att förbättra kvalitén, säkerheten och komforten i de bilarna man producerar, speciellt inom den avancerade kategori bilar som Volvo Car Corporation (VCC) framställer. Detta har lett till att man i allt större grad använder sig av lim, eller fästmedel, av så kallade polymerer som visat sig vara mycket användbara för att dämpa ljud och vibrationer.The occurrence of deformations on the surface of adhesively-bonded automotive body panels in proximity to the application of the polymer adhesive is called bond-line read-through (BLRT) and occurs due to process-induced differential thermal strains between the adhesive layer and metal substrate. This type of deformation is a major problem in the automotive industry and one Volvo Car Corporation, w

The aim of this master thesis is to detect and recognise wheels in images by means of image analysis. This could later on serve as a foundation for a safer vehicle counting and classification method than those currently in use that requires personnel to cross the lanes on installation. The general layout of the classification system consists of five stages: multi-scale transformation, window ext
Platform trials have become widely adopted across multiple disease areas over recent years, however, guidelines for operationalising these trials have not kept pace. We outline a series of documents that summarise the statistical components, and implicit processes, of the Staphylococcus aureus Network Adaptive Platform (SNAP) trial to provide an informal template for other researchers and reviewer
The role of environmental permits as a driver for environmental improvements has been a topic of debate for a while. Many permitting regulations were designed in the 1970's and have not been updated since then. Consequently, they have acted mostly as a driver for the adoption of pollution control technologies. Some experts now see that appropriately designed and implemented environmental permi

α-Synuclein is an intrinsically disordered protein implied in still not-well-known healthy function and also found as the main component of aggregates in Lewy bodies and Lewy neurites, hallmarks of the Parkinson’s disease. In both of cases, the interaction with lipid membranes is crucial. In this study we propose the investigation of the interaction between α-Synuclein and model systems made of DO
