The goal of this master thesis was to examine some of the available development tools for augmented reality in mobile applications. The best development tool were then used in development of an application for Android or iOS. The thesis has two main parts, the analysis of development tools and the application development. During the analysis ve dierent commercial development tools for augmented re
The possibility to print out metallic components with complex 3D-structures is could revolutionize the industry. In this master’s thesis the cause of process parameters have been investigated for three alloys; stainless steel, 316L, two nickel-based alloys, a derivative of Alloy 738 and 939. Microstructure, porosity, tensile testing, impact toughness, hardness and surface roughness was investigate
Value-at-Risk (VaR) forecasting in the context of Monte Carlo simulations is evaluated. A range of parametric models is considered, namely the traditional Generalized Autore- gressive Conditional Heteroscedasticity (GARCH) model, the exponential GARCH and the GJR-GARCH, which are put in the context of the Gaussian and Student-t distri- butions. The returns of the S&P 500 provide the basis for
This study gives an insight how new technology-based-firms (NTBFs) take part in investment readiness programmes (IRP) in practice and how this differs from the theoretical model by Mason and Harrison (2001). The first part of this study focuses on NTBFs, the role the play in the economy, the challenges they face and their need for financial resources. Furthermore, this paper explains the theoretic
This master thesis is on Statistical Process Control (SPC). The objective is to evaluate if SPC can be used in a process that produces plates for heat exchanger, the process evaluated is located at Alfa Laval Lund AB. The products are produced in the process by punching and shearing metal coils. An ambition in the project is also to increase the knowledge about Statistical Process Control at Alfa
Cardiovascular diseases are accountable for almost 50 % of the mortality number in Europe which is why research on its causes is highly prioritised. For practical and ethical reasons, in vitro study models are of high importance to enable research on cardiac abnormal behaviours. To meet this issue, researchers from Imec, Belgium, developed Neuray-II, the second generation of a biocompatible chip w
Reco Port AB is a company that builds folding garage doors and is a part of the ASSA ABLOY group. Reco uses Styrofoam as insulation in their doors and their current solution of cutting the Styrofoam is using a plunge saw and a custom built table to hold the Styrofoam in place. The solution is not ergonomic and spreads a lot of debris of Styrofoam around the workstation. Due to this it was requeste
Today, most software systems are event-driven, meaning that code execution is triggered by events handled dynamically. A typical example is a graphical user interface, where a button click initiates a specific action. In contrast, classic automation systems rely on programmable logic controllers, which execute code periodically at fixed intervals. The purpose of this study is to compare periodic a
The existing Power Supply Unit (PSU) at Axis Communication contains a fully discrete solution that lacks flexibility for future updates. This research aims to address critical challenges by exploring methods to enhance speed, reduce PCB area, and introduce flexibility to the existing hardware solution. The approach involves replacing hardware functionalities within the control unit with software-c
The European Union regularly portrays itself as a normative power committed to values such as human rights, solidarity, and the rule of law, while the EU Turkey Statement of 2016 has raised questions about the coherence between this self-image and the EU’s external migration practices. This thesis investigates how the Statement is linguistically legitimised in political and media discourse, as
The aim of this bachelor degree project is to design a modular luminaire with a longer lifespan, in order to reduce consumption. The project aims to explore how design can contribute to sustainable development by creating a durable and adaptable lighting solution. The luminaire is versatile and can either be hung from the ceiling, mounted on the wall, or placed on a table. It can be expanded
The efficiency of combustion engines is crucial for their future development, prompting researchers to explore various factors to enhance performance. Among these factors, exhaust gases hold significant potential. Typically, exhaust gases carry about 30-40% of the engine's energy, which often remains underutilized. Although technologies like turbochargers have made progress in recovering some
Digital integrated circuits are fundamental to modern electronic devices, with increasing design complexity requiring robust verification methods to ensure error free functionality. This thesis examines the critical role of formal verification in digital Integrated Circuits (IC) design, particularly during the architecture modeling phase. Using a state machine module that controls clock frequency
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
Enligt den Europeiska konventionen om skydd för de mänskliga rättigheterna och grundläggande friheterna (EKMR) krävs jurisdiktion för att en avtalsslutande part ska kunna hållas ansvarig, när ett påstående om intrång av non-refoulement enligt EKMR uppstår. Stater genomför extraterritoriella gränskontroller för att kontrollera migranter och internationella flyktingar utanför statens egna territoriuAccording to the European Convention on Human Rights, jurisdiction is a prerequisite for holding a contracting state responsible when an allegation of infringement of the ECHR arises, such as the principle of non-refoulement. States implement extraterritorial migration management measures trying to avoid triggering the principle of non-refoulement arguing that it cannot be applied extraterritorial
Training Generative Adversial Networks (GANs) for image synthesis problems is a largely heuristical process that is known to be fickle and difficult to set up reliably. To avoid common failure modes and succeed with GAN training, one needs to find very specific hyperparameter settings carefully tuned to the model architectures and datasets at hand. Standard GAN training optimization methods such a
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
