The purpose of the thesis was to design a new rotor blade for the KTH test turbine according to present design guidelines for gas turbines manufactured at Siemens Industrial Turbomachinery in Finspång. Stage one of a real gas turbine was used as a reference for the aerodynamic design providing a starting point for the project. Using similar gas conditions the new rotor blade was optimized with reg

This thesis studies the long-run performance of IPOs. In addition, it differentiates between family firms and non-family firms. The long-run performance is tested on listings on Nasdaq OMX Stockholm over a period from 1997 to 2011. The sample consists of 100 firms, whereas 39 firms are classified as family firms. To test the long-run IPO performance, buy-and-hold abnormal return over a three year

This study investigates the path to high health spending among local governments in Indonesia under the setting where administrative, fiscal, and political decentralization are already in place. The motivation behind this study is that Indonesia still has low level of health outcomes. Small amount of health spending is one prominent reason for this lack of achievement. However, the effort in impro

We live an increasingly larger part of our lives online. The Internet has fundamentally changed how we find information, buy products, connect with friends and find entertainment such as video streaming and digital distribution of books. The Internet has changed the competitive landscape for many markets. Local sellers suddenly face competition from sellers around the globe, introducing more choic

Antioxidants are compounds present in plant, fruit, and vegetables, and they are known for their medicinal benefits such as anti-carcinogenic and anti-fungicidal activity. Most commonly used methods for extractions of such compounds are lengthy due to mass transfer limitations. This study proposes the use of carbon-dioxide expanded liquids (CXLs) as solvent to improve these limitations. Such solve

Sub-Saharan Africa suffers from a severe infrastructure deficit, particularly in the power sector and this is broadly recognised as a barrier to poverty alleviation, economic growth and sustainable development in the region. At the same time, the region is rich in natural resources and the mining sector, which already makes a significant contribution to national economies is currently expanding an

This thesis investigates the nonlinear detector response to Laser Induced Phosphorescence signal originating from the CdWO4 phosphor. A matrix method is utilized to map the detectors linearity for decay-time determination as function of detector gain and number of photons reaching the detector. The Matrix is created by scanning the energy of the laser beam hitting the phosphor thus changing the ph

Humans have always communicated with each other. When the smartphone technology was launched on the market, it revolutionized the way people communicate. This smartphone technology is constantly evolving and during 2014 wearable computing seems to be in the focal point at most smartphone technology conferences. This master thesis aims to discover how a wearable computing device can further develo

This thesis project was carried out in department of physics (Division of exper- imental nuclear and particle physics), University of Basel, Switzerland. The PANDA (Anti-proton Annihilations at Darmstadt) experiment is one of the biggest projects at the new FAIR (Facility for Anti-proton and Ion Research) facility in Darmstadt. The main purpose of the PANDA experiment is to study Hadron spectrosco

The options of procreation, reproduction or bringing into existence a child of a particular parentage, including motherhood, are related to the advancement of science. Nowadays it is possible for a woman to become pregnant and afterwards give birth to a child which, by using medical assistance, is actually made from other womans oocyte. The term gestational carriage refers to being pregnant and th

We’re living in a time where more and more evidence of our impact on the environment appears every day. A lot of resource and time have been spent in order to identify and inform about the ecological footprint us humans enlarge day by day. The realization of human impact on the environment introduced large scale research and UN reports on the subject and a definition and goal to strive after was e

A field study was conducted in Fisantekraal, one of 20 high-risk communities in Cape Town, home to both a formal part consisting of low-cost government housing and an informal settlement. People in Fisantekraal are exposed to several different types of hazards and have problems with reoccurring disasters, especially in the informal settlement. Face-to-face interviews with people living in the two

Measuring results and outcome in social work: A casestudy on the application of the outcome measurement tool Forandringskompasset in the homelessness services in the municipality of Copenhagen [translated title] The aim of this study was to examine how New Public Management inspired outcome measurement tools is applied and understood by respectively the administrative management and the professio

This essay is a comparative overview of translation theory in Japan and the West from a historical perspective, beginning with the considerations of Cicero and ending with the turn towards literal translation in Japan in the late 19th century. The aim is to find similarities in the development of, and attitudes toward, translation traditions between the West and Japan. The first part of the essay

Soft biological tissues and engineered hydrogels for biomedical applications are intrinsically multiphasic materials, consisting of solid, fluid and possibly fixed and mobile ions. Understanding their mechanical behaviour requires experimental methods and theoretical models that take their multiphasic nature into account and allow for quantification of material parameters related to the different

This Bachelor thesis aims to analyze and clarify the situation of the irregular migrants in United Kingdom, whether it´s changing when applying UK:s own migrant legislation; The UK Immigration Act 2014, compared to EU:s migration policy and legislation. Based on Hannah Arendts theory on the irregular migrants loses their right to have rights, when migrating from their original country. These peopl
