Det snabba skiftet inom bilindustrin mot elektiska fordon sätter stor press på inte bara biltillverkare, utan på hela försörjningskedjan för elbilar. Detta innefattar litiumjonbattericeller som är det mest moderna sättet att lagra energi i elbilar. Den tekniska utvecklingen av litiumjonceller drivs i stor utsträckning av behoven från biltillverkare. Under det senaste årtiondet har det inneburit atThe rapid transformation of the automotive industry to electric vehicles is putting immense pressure on not just vehicle manufacturers (OEMs), but the entire battery electric vehicle (BEV) supply chain. This includes lithium-ion battery cells, the current state-of-the-art technology for energy storage in BEVs. The technological development within lithium-ion battery cells, which is greatly driven

The purpose of this thesis work is to investigate whether a dynamic chassis can possibly enhance hygiene chairs used in hospitals and elderly care. The problem with a lot of today’s products is the difficulty of manoeuvring the hygiene chair in tight spaces, and to allow for a high enough seating position to contribute to a more ergonomic working position for caregivers during showering. Thereof i

Utveckling av jordbrukssektorn är en av de viktigaste prioriteringarna för den Etiopiska staten när det kommer till att upprätthålla landets ekonomiska utveckling. Ett sätt att uppnå detta är att satsa på storskaliga utvecklingsprojekt inom jordbruket, till exempel Tana Beles Sugar Development Project som den här uppsatsen kretsar kring. För att kunna anlägga detta har stora landarealer tagits i aDevelopment of the agricultural sector is among the top priorities for the Ethiopian government in order to keep up the economic development in the country. One way of reaching this is to undertake large-scale development projects, such as the Tana Beles Sugar Development Project described in this thesis. For this, large areas of land are required for the plantations. This land is expropriated fro

Qualitative research was done

This study examines the factors regarding the perceived usability and usefulness of the Eclipse IDE and how this influences students' perceptions of the Eclipse IDE in the context of education. The theoretical framework of the study is the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM). The theoretical framework Modes of Interaction is introduced to further explain external factors. The external factors in

Bushfire problem is a long-lasting problem which is a big threat and environmental problem in Australia. Planning to control bushfire is very important for Australian Environment. One of the most effective methods to fight bushfire disasters is planning for controlled burns in order to reduce the risk of unwanted bushfire events. Controlled burns management and planning has been always considered

It is well-known that long memory and regime switching in the first moment of a stochastic process are easily confused. But the relation between long memory in the second moment and regime switching in the second moment is less well understood. We perform a simulation study in which we assess the possibility to distinguish the two properties in the case that data with long memory in the second mom

Since the Chinese economy’s reform in 1980, it has been attracting enormous foreign investments. Many Swedish firms from different sectors such as technology, manufactory production, consumer, service industries and so on, had started their investments in China. China has become the first choice for global manufacturing due to the huge market, continuous economic growth, stable political situation

This project aims to study the process of electron excitation by a light pulse, a process at the core of many important contemporary and possible future devices. Data from an experiment where the electron dynamics is probed with attosecond laser pulses are analyzed in order to gain insight on the rapid population oscillations within the excited atomic system and simulations are constructed with th

Abstract The aim of the project is to determine the mechanical properties and the microstructure with a to b transformation of the titanium alloy Ti-6Al-4V. The experiments made were tensile tests at temperatures 20, 400 and 800C and SEM images before and after inductive methods. Ti-6Al-4V is one of the most used types of alloy mainly because it has good qualities in strength, corrosion resistance

A loop of urbanization, increasing impervious surface in urban areas, increasing temperature, rainfall, surface runoff and flooding, and lack of new spaces have been adding challenges to urban drainage systems for decades. The climate change impacts are exposing the existing vulnerable conventional urban drainage systems to more challenges in the future. A new idea of sustainable drainage syst

This report investigates time optimization of a process where brazed heat exchangers are soldered in a vacuum furnace. This process consists of three phases, heating soldering and cooling. Physical models have been obtained by using stationary conditions. These are not sufficient to describe the actual very complex behavior. Instead, nonphysical models have been identified. Simulations of the heat

Idag har företagens varumärken gått från enbart det traditionella i form av en figur eller ett ord, antingen separat eller i kombination, till varumärkesportföljer som även inkluderar icke-visuella varumärken, vilka benämns inom varumärkesrätten som okonventionella varumärken. Till okonventionella varumärken hör bland annat ljudmärken, doftmärken, färgmärken, formmärken och även hologram. Hur denCorporate trademarks today have developed from solely a traditional form, meaning shape or word, together or in combination, to complete trademark portfolios that even include non-visual trademarks, referenced in trademark law as unconventional trademarks. Trademarks within audio, scent, color, form and even holograms are incorporated under unconventional trademarks. How this development has progr

Today the Swedish education system faces major challenges.

The aim for this Master Thesis was to design a new product used in weight training for the Swedish barbell company Eleiko. From the beginning nothing was specified about what sort of equipment that was going to be designed. The thesis has gone through the whole process from figuring out what type of product will be most beneficial for the company to having drawings ready for building a prototype.

Tracking activities have lately been very popular in smartphones, which requires that the devices are able to classify activities correctly. Since this type of devices has limitations in both power consumption and computational performance, it is important to keep these factors to a minimum. Therefore, the low cost of the accelerometer sensor is a good platform to build a classification on. Althou

Forests are today recognised as vital for ensuring a sustainable world and today’s initiatives to save them address everything from actual resource use to fictitious agendas such as carbon sequestration. Forests have become embedded in a “fog of greening”, and in this process local forest become global spaces for saving the world. The fog of greening is dislocated from the ground but has both mate
