The level of administered activity in radionuclide therapy is often limited by haematological toxicity resulting from the absorbed dose delivered to the bone marrow. The purpose of these EANM guidelines is to provide advice to scientists and clinicians on data acquisition and data analysis related to bone-marrow and whole-body dosimetry. The guidelines are divided into sections "Data acquisition"
Det finns många olika utformningar av lyfthjälpmedel och hjälpmedel för att gå, så som patient lyftar och rullatorer, men det finns inte många lösningar som kan göra båda. Detta examensarbete är baserat på en person med fysisk funktionsnedsättning som har specifika behov för vilka det inte fanns någon anpassad lösning. Målet var att utveckla en produkt som kan lyfta användaren från sittandes till There exist many different designs of lifting aids and walking aids, but barely any solutions that can do both. This thesis is based on a person with mobility impairment with specific needs for which there were yet no adapted solution. The goal was to design a product that can lift the user from sitting to standing position and then be a walking aid by supporting the user by the armpits, all this
Människors nyfikenhet och drivkraft att förstå och mäta vår värld har lett till många vetenskapliga framsteg. Vårt ständiga sökande efter kunskap har hjälpt oss att bland annat förhindra sjukdomar, förbättra skördar och förstå de ekosystem vi lever i. Dock varierar förutsättningar och utmaningar för forskning runt om i världen, och i många forskningsmiljöer saknas det tillgång till avancerad labor
This thesis investigates the portrayal of intimate partner violence (IPV) in The Invisible Man and It Ends with Us, focusing on the cultural narratives these films construct and their broader social implications. Drawing on Critical Discourse Analysis, Stuart Hall’s Representation Theory, and Raewyn Connell’s concept of the gender order, the study explores how the films depict IPV and engage with
Computed tomography (CT) segmentation models are frequently used within radiotherapy treatment planning, but similar models are not available to the related imaging modality cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) due to the scarcity of labeled data from this domain. Such models could have multiple clinical applications whereby it is of interest to study whether the CT segmentation models can be adap
Danske Bank has for several years modeled customer purchase behavior on category level (e.g. savings or investments). This thesis is a first attempt at predicting (first time) customer purchase behavior on product level. Five products within two categories were chosen and modelling was done with python using gradient boosters (mainly XGBoost, but also Light GBM). Results indicated that predicting
Of the food produced for human consumption, one-third is lost or wasted. Food waste has an impact on the environment in several ways and it is thus required to reduce food waste in all parts of the value chain. The objective of this thesis is to identify drivers and barriers for implementing food waste reducing strategies in school kitchens. The study is conducted within the project Göteborgsmod
Dividing wall columns are single shell distillation columns which are thermally fully coupled. DWC has the ability to create three product streams from one feed stream. A simulation of DWCs is hard due to the complexity of the system. Unfortunately, there is no good software package that can be used for simulations. Instead a detailed flowsheet with the right components and good arrangement over t
In this thesis, we study the Jarrow and Yildirim framework for inflation modeling and provide a new specification based on spread modeling which allows to calibrate the model to Zero-Coupons and Year-on-Year options jointly with convexity adjustments. We use this model to provide closedform formulas for options volatilities, convexity adjustments and Year-on-Year swaptions prices. Calibration resu
Oleaginous microorganisms provide an opportunity to produce oils without the use of arable land for cultivation of oil-containing plants. Oleaginous microorganisms are also capable of storing products of pharmaceutical interest alongside storing polymers, which could open new opportunities in the bioplastic industry. Oily yeasts have several advantages in comparison to alternatives; their doubling
Bakgrund: Den inledande amningen upplever kvinnor ofta som svår. Under Covid-19 pandemin eftervårdas kvinnor på BB utan partner. En stor andel barn tillmatas med bröstmjölksersättning på BB vilket påverkar amningen negativt. Syfte: Att belysa upplevelse av den inledande amningen hos kvinnor som eftervårdats under Covid-19 pandemin och vars barn tillmatats med bröstmjölksersättning. Metod: En kva
Processors grow more and more complex, even more so in the field of GPUs, where the instruction set, in general, is not publicly available. This enables them to change more rapidly than CPUs, since backwards compatibility is not an issue. In this thesis multiple approaches are investigated for code generation for a clause-based GPU. An optional pre-scheduler is implemented, together with two appro
Power reduction is becoming a critical design requirement for ASIC/SOC designers. Reducing both dynamic and leakage power is essential to meet power budgets for portable devices as well as to ensure that these ASICs meet their packaging and cooling costs. In addition, the power of an ASIC has a significant impact on its reliability and manufacturing yield. Also, low-power has become a leading des
Multi-storey buildings constructed in timber have become more common in recent years. A reason for this lies in the growing interest for sustainable building, where timber is seen as a particularly interesting alternative. As efforts have been made to improve the heat insulation in buildings, the energy consumption from manufacturing materials and from constructing buildings, referred to as embodi
Title: Identification and suggestions of emerging technologies for a smart warehouse Authors: Xinchuan Li, Monish Ashok Kumar Background description: The warehouse is a crucial point and one of the most vital logistics and supply chain management links. Warehouses are built to smooth the supply chain and can be divided into different classifications. The importance of warehouses has increased a lo
During this thesis nanoporous alumina has been used as a template for the synthesis of nano-confined palladium structures. The nanoporous templates have been synthesized by anodization of aluminum and characterized using atomic force microscopy (AFM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS), resulting in good statistics of the pore diameter and interpore distance
This thesis seeks to explain constraining effects of distance to markets on agricultural smallholder’s ability to commercialise, using Zambia as a case. Despite a growing consensus that inaccessible markets constrain the development of broad-based agricultural growth, creating socio-economic regional disparities, the exact nature by which distance and market access interact with agricultural produ
In an age of increasing usage of heavily interconnected platforms, graph databases have increased in popularity due to their ease of modelling these systems. This thesis will evaluate if the graph database Neo4j can be used to model Lime's CRM System efficiently by comparing the performance of Neo4j and MS SQL on queries similar to those existing in Lime CRM. To benchmark the databases, they w
Detta project utfördes i samarbete med svenska förpackningsföretaget Tetra Pak Packaging Solutions AB. Deras huvuduppgift är att utveckla förpacknngsmaterial, processer och maskinlinjer som krävs för att producera laminatet, vilket är att flerskiktsmaterial som vanligtvis består av papper, plast och aluminium för att skapa en stark och skyddande barriär för flytande livsmedel. För att skapa laminaThis project was carried out in cooperation with Swedish packaging company Tetra Pak Packaging Solutions AB. Their main purpose is to develop the packaging material, process, and machine lines needed to produce the laminate, which is a multi-layered material typically made by combining paper, plastic, and aluminum to create a strong, protective barrier for liquid food packaging. In order to create
Menstrual health is essential for people who menstruate to fully participate in daily life and social activities. It is also a fundamental human right that closely impacts the realization of other rights such as right to non-discrimination and education. In recent years, there has been increasing attention to menstrual health on both the international and national levels. However, significant barr
