Methylamine adsorption on the ordered Ni3Al(111) and NiAl(110) surfaces has been investigated by high resolution photoelectron spectroscopy and density functional theory calculations. Methylamine adsorbs molecularly at both surfaces at low temperature (90 K). The experiments show that methylamine interacts with the surface aluminium atoms on both surfaces, resulting in a positive binding energy sh

Background: Over time, methods for the development of clinical decision support (CDS) systems have evolved from interpretable and easy-to-use scoring systems to very complex and non-interpretable mathematical models. In order to accomplish effective decision support, CDS systems should provide information on how the model arrives at a certain decision. To address the issue of incompatibility betwe

Background One of Alfa Laval’s factories in Lund, LA, has noticed that up to 50% of all order proposals suggested by their ERP system JEEVES is considered to be irrelevant and are subsequently disregarded by the purchasers. Consequently, many purchasers disregard the parameters in JEEVES that control what proposals get suggested and instead order on “gut-feeling” and personal experience. Not only

Concrete carbonation is a prevalent phenomenon that leads to steel reinforcement corrosion in reinforced concrete (RC) structures, thereby decreasing their service life as well as durability. The process of carbonation results in a lower pH level of concrete, resulting in an acidic environment with a pH value below 12. This acidic environment initiates and accelerates the corrosion of steel reinfo

Objective: To investigate the prevalence of diabetes retinopathy and evaluate the factors influencing its occurrence both at the onset of type 2 diabetes (T2D) and three years into its duration. Design: Retrospective population-based study. Setting: Data was retrieved from Regional Healthcare Information Platform in Region Halland 2016–2020. Subjects: Patients 35-75 years old in Region Halland rec

This thesis explores Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) for predictive time series classification for Predictive Maintenance (PdM). Time slicing and time shifting are methods used, to enable the models to find features over time, and to predict into the future, respectively. Architectures of increasing complexity are explored for Feed Forward Neural Networks (FFNNs), Convolutional Neural Networks (

När en brottslig gärning begås uppstår ofta även civilrättsliga anspråk av olika slag. Sådana anspråk kan kumuleras med en ansvarstalan, vilket innebär att frågorna avhandlas i samma mål. Den för uppsatsen relevanta frågan är om det utifrån svensk processrätt och Europakonventionen är möjligt att en ansvarstalan ogillas, men att det kumulerade anspråket ändå bifalls. Samtidigt väcks också frågor oA criminal act might also result in different kinds of private claims. Such claims can be joined with and tried alongside the question of criminal quilt. The pertinent question is if it is in accordance with Swedish procedural law and the European Convention of Human Rights to acquit a defendant yet still find the defendant liable regarding a private claim. This also gives rise to other questions,

The aim of this study is to understand how urban design can be used in order to integrate and create conditions for sustainable mobility. This is done at both national and municipal level by choosing two municipalities, Malmö and Linköping municipality. The methods used are document analysis and interviews with employees at each municipality. The analysis is done according to the theoretical frame

A frequently asked question is if owning real estate is a good asset to diversify one's portfolio from the stock market. A common perception is that it favors the portfolio since the two assets are segmentated. Earlier studies came to the conclusion that there is a weak or even negative correlation which is often considered as the basis for this argument. The question is if the stock market an

Inclusive Culture Gaming is a big part of our every-day life, whether we play it together with our family as board games, play card games with friends or other partners, play games that test our knowledge or play video games or computer games. It is always in our culture. But how about larp and digital games? How are those games played? Today, we see the rise of games that are being adapted for

MOx sensors are widely used for sensing gases. In this thesis a variable temperature MOx sensor was used to detect graffiti spray paint and differentiate it from other substances using the sensors sensitivity to different gases at different temperatures using machine learning. The machine learning methods Support Vector Machines, k-Nearest Neighbour and neural networks were evaluated and compared.

With as complex phenomenon as homelessness, collaboration is needed to provide multiple services that are necessary.The aim of this study was to analyse how service providers experience collaboration between municipalities and other service providers on the matter of homelessness in Iceland. Qualitative semi-structured interviews were conducted with eight service providers that work with the homel

The development of electrical circuit boards is increasing and the time spent in the development stage can be quite long. The thesis has tried to shorten the time spent developing new electrical circuit boards, by first finding a common denominator for efficiency losses in the development process and then implementing an example solution. The problem identified was the lack of attention towards pr

The aim of this master thesis was to develop adaptive control for a quadrotor using Gaussian process regression (GP). Online regression with GPs can provide many benefits as it is a flexible non-linear regression model that can provide uncertainty measures of the estimate. However, online GP regression may also gives rise to problems. Because of the high numerical complexity of GPs, sparse approxi

This thesis investigates the climate impact of a newly constructed residential complex in Oceanhamnen, Helsingborg, through an extended life cycle assessment (LCA) covering both building and non-building elements such as road infrastructure, inner courtyards, external installations, that area often overlooked in conventional assessments. The aim is to develop a replicable method to quantify the gl

Vitamin A deficiency affects approximately 30% of children under 5 years old globally, with Bolivia showing persistent rates despite intervention efforts. High-altitude environments like La Paz present unique challenges for nutrient-rich crop production, mostly due to harsh growing conditions and limited infrastructure. This study investigated wether targeted modifications of hydroponic substrates

This contribution to the conference on Transitioning away from Fossil Fuels focuses on thematic pillar 3 which addresses the advancement of international cooperation and climate diplomacy. The Fossil Fuel Treaty Initiative represents an opportunity to align climate ambition with human rights and biodiversity stewardship. We consider this stage of the process a crucial waypoint for responding in a
