Emulsification is an important unit operation used in the pharmaceutical, food, and cosmetic industry. Membrane emulsification is a relatively new membrane technology which allows the production of emulsion droplets under controlled conditions with a narrow droplet size distribution. The continuous phase flows tangentially to the membrane surface and sweeps away dispersed phase droplets forming fr

Popular Abstract in Swedish Denna avhandling har den tillämpade psykiatrin som sitt forskningsfält och fokuserar på de problem som har samband med vård och behandling av vuxna patienter med autismspektrumstörning. Avhandlingens syfte är att medverka till att personal inom vuxenpsykiatrin får ökade kunskaper om de svårigheter med kontakt, kommunikation och tänkande som hänger samman med en autismdThe research field of the thesis is clinical adult psychiatry and it focuses on the treatment of patients with autism spectrum disorders. Before the publication of DSM-IV (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders) in 1994 intellectually high-functioning patients with autism have not been included in diagnostic manuals and received appropriate treatment in adult psychiatry. In recent y

Popular Abstract in Swedish Bakgrund Denna studie är en undersökning av barns musikskapande med synthesizer och dator. I studien deltog nio barn i åttaårsåldern. Musik utgör en viktig del i barns och ungdomars vardag och den stora exponering för musik som sker i vårt samhälle innebär att ingen är någon musikalisk nybörjare. Det är väl känt att barn kan skapa musik på egen hand, mest är det dock b

During the last two decades, the synthesis of silica with an ordered mesoporous structure has been thoroughly explored. The basis of the synthesis is to let silica monomers polymerize in the presence of an amphiphilic template component. In the first studies, cationic surfactants were used as structure inducer. Later it was shown that pluronic copolymers also could have the role. One advantage wit

The savanna complex is a highly diverse global biome that occurs within the seasonally dry tropical to sub-tropical equatorial latitudes and are structurally and functionally distinct from grasslands and forests. Savannas are open-canopy environments that encompass a broad demographic continuum, often characterised by a changing dominance between C3-tree and C4-grass vegetation, where frequent env

Den svenska elkonsumtionen och elproduktionen förväntas öka drastiskt de närmsta åren. Detta ställer krav på elnätet som därmed behöver stärkas och byggas ut för att tillvarata den el som förväntas. Parallellt med detta behöver den gröna omställningen av industrisektorn påskydas om EU ska lyckas uppnå klimatmålen till 2050. För att dekarbonisera industriella processer kan grön vätgas användas. GenThe expected increase in both consumption and production of electricity strains the Swedish electricity grid, necessitating both reinforcement and expansion. Concurrently, the need to decarbonise heavy industry is becoming more urgent to achieve the EU Climate neutrality goal by 2050, with hydrogen anticipated as a key player. Hybrid energy systems that combine the generation of renewable electric

Kiselalger, vattenlevande, mikroskopiska organismer med kiselskal, används som bioindikatorer för vattenkvalitet eftersom de är artrika och påverkas av sin omgivning. Processen kallas Kiselalgsmetoden och utförs genom en standard, en standard jag valde att analysera. Proven tas från stenar i vattendrag och sedan görs ett preparat som är fixerat på objektglas som kan undersökas i mikroskop genom aDiatoms, water living, microscopic organisms with silicon shells, are used as bioindicators of water quality because they are diverse and influenced by their surroundings. The process is called The Diatom Method and is accomplished through a standard, a standard I have chosen to analyze. The samples are taken from stones in water streams and then a preparation is made to fix the algae on slides t

On January 1, 2011 the new structural design rules (Eurocode) became valid in Sweden; these rules are common to the entire European Union. The reason for the introduction of the Eurocode is to try and eliminate trade barriers between member states. This thesis aims to show what impact this change from Boverkets structural design rules (BKR) to the Eurocode will have on the dimensioning of shear re

Popular Abstract in Swedish Den pågående globaliseringen skapar ett behov av ökad kommunikationskompetens bland svenskar som arbetar ute i världen. Denna studie baseras på beskrivningar av de kommunikationsprocesser som används av svenskar, när de möter icke-svenskar på yrkets vägnar vid arbete utanför Sverige. Beskrivningarna baseras på intervjuer. Studien är inriktad på tre områden. De kommunikaGlobalization creates a need for increased communication competence among Swedes working on the global arena. This study is based on reports of communication processes used by Swedes when interacting professionally with non-Swedes. The reports are derived from interviews. The study focuses on three areas. The communication strategies developed by the respondents for intercultural communication. Th

This thesis presents methods for improving machining with industrial robots using control, with focus on increasing positioning accuracy and controlling feed rate. The strong process forces arising during high-speed machining operations, combined with the limited stiffness of industrial robots, have hampered the usage of industrial robots in high-end machining tasks. However, since such manipulato

Popular science summary The effect of glucose and incretin proteins on insulin secretion and OPN production Insulin secretion is a sensitive cellular process with ramifications in diabetes mellitus development. Diabetes mellitus is characterized by hyperglycemia, a chronic condition defined by high levels of circulating glucose. Insulin hormone is the primary regulator of glucose absorption from

Using pictures of patient data to predict hospitalization Predicting patient hospitalization has been a major objective of health care providers due to its impact on patients’ life quality. These benefits are demonstrated in driving down health care cost in addition to lowering mortality rates and complications due to unplanned hospitalizations. Like any other patients, dialysis patients experi

FTRTIL is rapidly expanding on the Indian market after initiatives by the Indian government to increase the number of rolling trains. FTRTIL is today experiencing a greater demand for their products. Meanwhile are they also planning to expand their product range with new introductions. After trying to respond to the prevailing market demand for the E70 brake panel without any success made FTRTIL r

Background For companies’ long term survival it is essential to manage product rollovers successfully. It can even be more important than the product development in some cases. Unfortunately, most companies experience less than successful product rollovers. Several difficulties can jeopardise a successful rollover, such as: technical problems that can delay a new product introduction, excess prod

When the Swedish construction code (in 1994) allowed wooden multi-storey buildings to be built, this type of lightweight construction became popular due to its low cost and ease of construction, and also because wood is a plentiful resource in Sweden. Drawbacks in such buildings are disturbing vibrations and noise propagating in the construction, especially through junctions. In lightweight constr

A packaging company is currently evaluating their production and searching for development opportunities to make the production more effective. At the facility for packaging materials there is a production line with two machine-groups consisting of two printers and one laminator. In the present situation the two machine-groups are disconnected from each other by the use of an inventory. The purp

The emulsion stabilization functionality of surfactants and biopolymers can be replaced by solid particles adsorbed at the interface, where they create a category of emulsions known as Pickering emulsions. Recently, health and environmental concerns have led to new market demand for natural, biodegradable and renewable sources of ingredients. Starch granules meet these ingredient requirements and

Context. Gaia Data Release 3 (Gaia DR3) contains the second release of the combined radial velocities. It is based on the spectra collected during the first 34 months of the nominal mission. The longer time baseline and the improvements of the pipeline made it possible to push the processing limit from GRVS= 12 in Gaia DR2 to GRVS= 14 mag. Aims. We describe the new functionalities implemented for
