Spent grain (BSG) is the solid residue obtained during brewing containing leftover malt and adjuncts. Though nutrient-dense, it is found to negatively impact texture and colour when used its raw form as an ingredient in food. Bio-processing presents an interesting method to alter the structure of BSG, rendering it a possible novel food ingredient to increase the nutrient capacity of products along
Glaciala sediment- och landformskonstellationer har länge använts för att rekonstruera inlandsisens dynamik och rörelser under Kvartärperioden, specifikt så för den senaste glaciationen i norra Europa och södra Skandinavien. En sådan sediment- och landformskonstellation är ’småkullig morän’, som tidigare har använts som en övergripande och beskrivande term starkt associerad med dödisutsmältning ocGlacial sediment-landform assemblages have long been used to reconstruct the dynamics of ice sheets throughout the Quaternary time period, particularly so for the period of the last glaciation in northern Europe and southern Scandinavia. One such sediment-landform assemblage is hummocky moraine, which has previously been used as an all-encompassing descriptive terminology strongly associated with
A growing body of literature within political ecology is concerned with the exercise of political and economic power within climate change policies (Robbins, 2020). In this thesis, I explore the political economy of Climate-Smart Agriculture (CSA), using methodological reflections and empirical material from a case study of a Ugandan smallholder agricultural community. To assess how local communit
Acoustophoresis is a cell separation technology where particles or cells are suspended in a fluid container and subject to acoustic standing waves. The standing waves exerts an acoustic radiation force on the particles, pushing them towards the nodal plane. This movement is called migration, and the migration velocity depends on the acoustic mobility of the particle, which depend on the particle s
Sammanfattning Skuldsaneringsinstitutet är ett kompromissfyllt instrument där många intressen ställs mot varandra och det är i den allmänna skälighetsbedömningen som avvägningen ska göras mellan dessa intressen. Arbetet handlar om att beskriva den allmänna skälighetsbedömningen mer ingående utifrån dels ett deskriptivt rättsutvecklingsperspektiv och dels ur ett mer teoretiskt och analyserande perSummary The institute for debt reconstruction is a process and function full of compromise wherein the conflicting interests of several parties must be considered. Such conflicts are assessed from the perspective of making a judgement of general reasonableness. This work describes such judgements from legislative development as well as theoretical and analytical perspectives. I seek to clarity an
Climate change represents one of the most serious threats to international environmental, social and economic security. The growing energy consumption is producing enormous amounts of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, which are fastening climate change and polluting the environment. For this reason, the European Union (EU) desires to act as a global leader in combating climate change and is therefor
This paper has adopted a discursive approach in examining and analyzing discursive formation of Palestinian national identity under the circumstances of conflict and through the impact and channels of politics. Through the methodology of Norman Fairclough’s critical discourse analysis and Daniel Bar-Tal’s theory about societal beliefs, two political and public speeches are analyzed. The speeches h
I denna avhandling undersöker vi möjligheten att använda Siamesiska Neurala Nätverk för att detektera röstförändringar bland patienter som lider av återkommande stämbandscancer. I samarbete med VoiceDiagnostic Sweden AB och läkare vid Lunds Universitetssjukhus konstruerades modeller för att mäta avstånd mellan olika röstinspelningar, samt avstånd mellan mindre segment av röstinspelningar. De resulIn this thesis, we investigate the possibility of using Siamese Neural Networks to detect voice changes in the voices of patients su↵ering from a recurrence of their vocal cord cancer. In collaboration with VoiceDiagnostic Sweden AB and physicians at Lunds’s University Hospital, models were trained on audio features in order to learn distance measures between recordings, and segments of recordings
This paper presents research and implementation of a high frequency Integer-N phase-locked loop for digital beamforming in mobile devices. Multiple topologies investigated whereof two were implemented. The transient phase noise of the PLL is -104dB/-95dB @1MHz. The output frequency range is from 8G-10G. Reference signal is 163.84MHz, reference-spurs is -80dBc/-98dBc lower than main frequency. RMS
The objective of the thesis was to examine howtheEU’snew approach to migration, namely externalizing border controlsinto third countries, fit into the European Union’sasylum framework. Furthermore, what has been analysed is how this process of externalizing borders has changed the opportunities for migrantsto access the asylum procedure. The research question was: How does externalizing the outer
Most part of Iran is arid and semi-arid; thus in most parts of the region, groundwater is the only source of water. This research presents a method based on a spatial multi-criterion evaluation (SMCE) for designing possible sites of underground dams and ranks them according to their suitability. The method was tested for siting underground dams in the Alborz Province, Iran. At first, screening alg
Motivation is a hot topic in the corporate world and managers are searching for ways to motivate the workers in order to improve performance. Profit-seeking organizations are able to control the workers motivation and actions, because they are usually in higher power and employees are often dependent on the organization for monetary reasons (Sayer, 2007). But what about managers in voluntary organ
Resulting from CSO critique of the Paris Declaration signatories of the Accra Agenda committed themselves to deepen CSO engagement in national aid effectiveness. Therefore the purpose herein is to increase understanding over functions, mechanisms, hindrances and opportunities facing CSO in this process in Tanzania. The primary method for achieving this was semi-structured interviews with 21 perso
The purpose of this thesis is to find a model, which is based on economic variables that can forecast the cotton price better than commonly used benchmark models. A vector error correction model is used because of the existence of non-stationary variables and one cointegration relation in the data. Two types of forecasting methods are used for out-of sample predictions. The dynamic forecasting in
In the aftermath of 9/11, a heightened development of security provisions within the United States of America (US) has been observed. This thesis seeks to study how these security provisions have influenced the process of a securitization of migration and the conceptualization of migrants within the US. This research paper applies Foucault’s notion of biopower to study this issue by examining risk
This research departs from two domains within the research field of consumer culture theory (CCT), Consumer Identity Projects and Marketplace Cultures. The goal was to add insights to the field by investigating social distinction through exploration of a context that traditionally has been characterized as being democratic and folksy. This research will study speciality coffee consumers as they di
Software developers use collection data structures extensively andare often faced with the task of picking which collection to use.Choosing an inappropriate collection can have major negativeimpact on runtime performance. However, choosing the right collectioncan be difficult since developers are faced with many possibilities,which often appear functionally equivalent. One approachto assist develo
This thesis examines the reasons behind the Swedish migration policy reform which led to a replacement of the Aliens Appeal Board by the Migration Court. This introduced a two-party procedure, oral hearings and enhanced transparency. It was designed to guarantee the rule of law and to thwart political arbitrariness. The transfer of power from representative institutions to judiciaries is referred
This essay examines contemporary political discourses about the Mau Mau insurgence, which took place in Kenya in 1952-1960. During the Mau Mau, the people living in the Central Highlands region, mainly of the Kikuyu ethnic group rebelled against colonial rule. The British came down hard on the Mau Mau, detaining, killing and torturing large portions of the Kikuyu population. There was a divide wit
