In Rev.IV:137, Christ told St. Birgitta that pilgrims to Vadstena could receive the same plenary indulgence as the one granted to the church San Pietro in Vincoli in Rome. The privilege was highly disputed, but in Vadstena the pilgrims crowded anyway on the feast of St. Peter in Chains on August 1, a feast where the deliverance from the captivity of sin was pivotal. This study is based on extant s
Sammanfattning Examensarbetets titel: Facebook, en plattform för socialt nätverkande eller ett skyltfönster åt företag? - En kvalitativ studie om konsumenters upplevelser av annonser på sociala nätverkstjänster Författare: Fredrik Andersson, Johan Karlsson, Ellinor Åkerman Handledare: Clara Gustafsson Syfte: Syftet med den här uppsatsen är att undersöka hur konsumenter hanterar de annonser so
In Sweden there are currently no cohesive and unequivocal regulations regarding fire safety for upholstered furniture. In contrast to this the regulations regarding fire safety on vessels are very clear-cut and easy to interpret. The aim of this thesis is to investigate whether the current standards are sufficient, and if it sufficient to only impose requirements regarding flammability. Whether it
Det Svenska flerbostadshusbeståndet från åren 1945-1975 är på väg att nå slutet på sin tekniska livslängd. Byggnaderna från denna tidsperiod är i stort behov av renovering samt energieffektiviserande åtgärder för att minska energianvändningen och möjliggöra fortsatt användning av byggnaderna i framtiden, samtidigt som ekonomiskt utsatta personer har råd att bo kvar i byggnaderna. Dagens utmaning äThe Swedish apartment building stock from 1945-1975 is reaching the end of its technical life span. Renovations and energy efficiency measures are needed to reduce energy use and enable continued usage of the buildings in the future and still provide affordable housing to socioeconomic vulnerable groups. The problem today is that some building features, which are needed to estimate the renovation
Lysosomes are cell organelles in charge of degradation. Lysosomal membrane permeabilization (LMP) causes the leakage of cathepsins and other digestive enzymes into the cytosol from lysosomal cavities. This usually causes the initiation of cell death. LMP can be triggered by many stimuli and this could potentially be used in new therapeutic approaches for removing cancer cells. However, excessive L
Sammanfattning Jordens befolkning förväntas öka de kommande årtiondena. Detta kan skapa osäkerhet kring livsmedelsförsörjning och kräver en mer produktiv livsmedelssektor samt metoder för att bedöma tillgång på livsmedel i förhållande till efterfrågan. Utvecklandet av lågkostnadsmetoder för övervakning av grödor kan stödja en hållbar intensifiering av jordbruket och tillhandahålla användbar inforAbstract The population of earth is projected to increase the coming decades. This can pose problems of food security and demands a more productive food sector as well as methods of assessing food productivity in relation to demand. Crop monitoring with remote sensing can guide precision farming used for sustainable intensification of agriculture, as well as contribute to yield forecasting models
Learning accurate and stable time-advancement operators for nonlinear partial differential equations (PDEs) remains challenging, particularly for chaotic, stiff, and long-horizon dynamical systems. While neural operator methods such as the Fourier Neural Operator (FNO) and Koopman-inspired extensions achieve good short-term accuracy, their long-term stability is often limited by unconstrained late
Recent advances in the field of wild avian microbiome research have significantly deepened our understanding of the eco-evolutionary dynamics of bird–microbe interactions. Consequently, the field is now approaching a pivotal moment in uncovering the ultimate factors shaping avian microbiome structure, especially in relation to birds' ecological, evolutionary, and dietary diversity. Yet, avian micr
A university student in China today might find himself or herself taking a “golden course” that blends practical and academic training. The student earns degree credit while gaining direct exposure to industry. The course might even be sponsored by Alibaba, the online retail giant, or another large firm.
The modern construction industry is heavily resource-intensive, generating billions of tons of waste annually and contributing significantly to global carbon emissions. While recycling initiatives have grown, low-grade demolition debris such as broken bricks are systematically downcycled rather than reintegrated into structural architectural components due to their inherent heterogeneity and irreg
Global manufacturing companies operate in increasingly uncertain and complex environments where changes in sourcing strategies, supplier structures and logistics networks create significant challenges for decision- making. Traditional analytical methods often struggle to capture the dynamic and interconnected nature of modern supply chains, limiting their ability to support proactive evaluation
This Master’s Thesis explored how traditional computer vision methods and deep learning methods could be used to estimate hardwood and softwood fibre distributions in paperboard. 11 mixtures ranging from 100% hardwood to 100% softwood with 10% increments were analysed. The study compared the usefulness of tomograms and radiographs for the given task. It was found that traditional methods did not
Using Swedish Civil Contingency Agency (MSB) as a case study, this paper reviews the implementation of gender mainstreaming across seven DRR capacity development projects implemented between 2007-2017. Documentation and semi-structured interviews with the project managers responsible for the projects were used as main data sources. The overall finding of the study showed that gender was mains
A lot of research involves spectral or polarimetric imaging in applications such as medicine, material science, and molecular science. Spectral imaging allows the acquisition of multiple spectral bands of a scene, while polarimetric imaging enables the extraction of a scene's polarisation. Combining the two imaging techniques simultaneously is referred to as multiparametric imaging. Today, onl
The demand for better networks and faster speeds within telecommunications has been an ever-growing ambition for the last decade. A promising candidate for dealing with this demand is distributed multiple-input multiple-output (D- MIMO) systems that combine large-scale antenna arrays and decentralized node architectures. However, evaluating the possibilities and limitations of such system requires
Smart charging of electric vehicles can reduce cost by scheduling against time-varying electricity spot prices, but commercial systems generally rely on day-ahead prices and capture only within-day variation. This thesis investigates whether forecasting spot prices beyond the day-ahead horizon adds value for vehicle-integrated smart charging, and how that value varies across charging contexts. A t
Selecting the right stainless-steel (SS) grade for food processing equipment is a critical decision, since processing environments vary widely and a grade that performs well under one set of conditions may be inadequate under another. The following study evaluates the pitting corrosion resistance of three grades commonly used in the food industry, 316L, 2205 DSS and 254 SMO, under varying chloride
