The recent advent of 3DSG in the computer vision domain has brought powerful high-level representations of 3D environments. These representations strive to mimic human perception and facilitate the extraction of meaningful insight from visual data. This research has led to framework like Hydra, which creates a real-time, persistent spatial perception system that creates a complete 3D map of their
Distribution is a part of the supply chain and refers to the steps taken to move and store a product from the supplier stage to the customer stage in the supply chain. Direct shipment is a concept within distribution and refers to shipping direct between a supplier and a retailer or customer. Distribution is considered a key driver for overall profitability of a company since it directly affects b
Background and Objectives: This research explored the possibility of organisations implementing the work of CIP for the right beneficial reason, or if the implementation was done because the subject is a trend. While CIP-methods are getting more and more popular, it remains in many cases unclear which concepts suit best to what organisation. Having a single organisation implementing a numerous var
This research addresses the role of social capabilities over the growth trajectory of natural resource (NR) rich developing countries through a case study – an analytical narrative using data from various sources – of the Chilean experience since the early 1900s to the present. The paper adopts a novel framework, which identifies four distinct but interrelated dimensions of social capabilities: tr
As the world is becoming more digital, the use of data is rapidly increasing. To protect all EU citizens from privacy and data breaches, the regulations will become stricter. The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) will become effective on the 25th of May 2018. This will mean big structural changes for organizations, but it will also mean tougher requirements for gathering and maintaining pe
The growing popularity of Extended Reality (XR) attracts new people to enter the field. However, novices face challenges at the beginning of their journeys. Previous studies have identified the key difficulties based on real-world evidence and found that the barriers to entry were high. This thesis aims to guide novice XR practitioners in overcoming these challenges. To achieve this, empirical in
Despite its importance, rural groundwater quality in Rwanda remains insufficiently monitored. This study aimed to investigate the groundwater quality, its health implications as well as how management can be improved to reduce the health risks of rural boreholes in the Nyagatare district in Rwanda. In total 61 boreholes were visited and 48 groundwater samples were collected. Analysis was conducted
This thesis examines how outnovation is enacted within design entrepreneurship, with fashion design entrepreneurship as the empirical context. It analyses how value formed through design practice may contribute to sustainable competitive advantage. Understood as an alternative innovation logic centred on authenticity, nostalgia, simplicity, and sustainability, outnovation offers a counterpoint to
When humans are involved, things can go wrong. This is a statement as factually true and yet dramatically undefined and dangerously ambiguous as any. No matter the industry or domain, where humans interact with other humans, perfect predictability is impossible and a focus on negative outcomes can seem natural. When outcomes are anything less than ideal and when these events and outcomes are made
Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) is a vital part of product development, and understanding the sources and causes of the emissions can facilitate tremendously in reaching compliance requirements and reduce the work needed for troubleshooting. At Axis Communications, where this thesis has taken place, the knowledge of EMC is an important part of their work and they aspire to improve further. Thi
A short introduction to optimal control problems is presented. For these problems the calculation of sensitivity matrices with the method of adjoint equation is shown. The adjoint equations are derived with the corresponding initial values. At the end two examples are calculated.
The aim of this thesis was threefold: (i) study the association behaviour of β-casein, (ii) study the electrostatic and conformational properties of β-casein, and (iii) evaluate the possibility of using β-casein as a model protein for the acidic proline rich protein (PRP-1). Dynamic light scattering (DLS) was used to determine the size of β-casein aggregates that were formed in aqueous solutions
Football supporters’ violence in Sweden is a current societal issue, which lacks experimental investigations. The current study aims to address this gap by investigating social and cognitive factors in order to better understand the mechanisms behind legitimation of violence towards supporters of the opposing team (the out-group). A football supporter and a social science student samples answered
Background: The existence of a “minority tax,” defined as the burden of extra responsibilities placed on minorities relative to non-minorities of the same position, has been documented across various fields, including and beyond medicine. This study sought to quantify the types and extent of the minority tax faced by minority orthopaedic surgeons, as well as evaluate the degree to which this work
PurposeThe purpose is to increase the understanding of when a heritage in the non-profit category becomes a part of the established heritage sector, and how this can be understood with regard to the rising awareness of climate change in heritage management and recent theories within the field. The case is Hindås Ski Jumping Hill in Hindås, Sweden, which since 2022 is a listed building in Sweden.De
The Middle Danube (Carpathian) Basin is considered to encompass some of the thickest and most complete records of aeolian dust deposition in Europe, covering the last two glacial–interglacial cycles. In this study, independent, published chronologies based on absolute dating methods were compiled for 34 loess-palaeosol sequences and modelled using Bayesian statistics. Mass accumulation rates (MARs
Chrysene-containing polymers functionalized with piperidinium- and quinuclidinium cations, respectively, are prepared by polyhydroxyalkylation and studied as anion exchange membranes (AEMs). Experimental results, supported by theoretical considerations, indicate that the chrysene units significantly enhance alkaline stability; a poly(chrysene piperidinium) AEM shows only 16% total ionic loss, comp
