This thesis project has been conducted in collaboration with Cenito AB, a software-developing company based in Malmö. Cenito has currently a responsive website, a SPA (Single Page Application). A responsive website implies that the size and appearance adapts to the unit that is trying to access the site. This site is being used by Cenito as a basis or first building block for other application tha
Syfte: Studien undersöker vilken information klassificering i subformer av Lindriga kognitiva symptom (MCS) och depressions- och ångestsymptom tillför den diagnostiska prediktionen av Alzheimers sjukdom (AS) för patienter med MCS. Metod: Patienterna (N = 417) var mellan 60 och 80 år och hade subjektiva och/ eller objektiva lindriga kognitiva symptom, men uppfyllde inte diagnoskriterier för demenssAims: The study investigates what information classification of Mild Cognitive Symptoms (MCS) subtype and symptoms of depression and anxiety add to the diagnostic prediction of Alzheimer's disease (AD) for MCS-patients. Method: Patients (N = 417), ranging between 60 and 80 years old, had subjective and/ or objective mild cognitive symptoms, but did not meet diagnostic criteria for dementia at
In this thesis, InGaAs fins with vertical sidewalls consisting of {110} facets were epitaxially grown on InP(111)B substrates using metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy. A lithography patterned hydrogen silsesquixane growth mask was used to promote the formation of vertical {110} facets during the growth. The relative growth rate of the {111B} and {110} facets was controlled by the input V/III ratio i
Air pollution has become an urgent issue that affecting public health and people’s daily life in China. Social media as potential air quality sensors to surveil air pollution is emphasized recently. In this research, we picked up a case-2013 Eastern China smog and focused on two of the most popular Chinese microblog platforms Sina Weibo and Tencent Weibo. The purpose of this study is to determine
This thesis aims at developing and evaluating a model for high frequency foreign exchange data, that beats the TWAP benchmark the majority of the time. This is done by dividing the total order time into smaller time buckets and trading a smaller quantity of the total order volume in each bucket. The second purpose of the thesis is to determine if there is an optimal bucket size in which to trade i
It is common knowledge that shading systems and solar control glasses are used to avoid glare and overheating at expenses of daylight. In Dynamic Thermal Modelling tools, there is no assessment method where the shading use is expressed when predicting the building performance. Furthermore, literature often refers to studies where complex fenestration systems are optimized for specific cases. Howev
Illicit organ markets coincides with medical advancements and greater global interconnectedness. Many organ vendors come from poor socioeconomic backgrounds and are coerced into the sale which lacks the altruistic notion often associated with transplantation. This is a case study based on a literature review with a focus on Sudanese migrants in Cairo, Egypt. The purpose of this study is to investi
Denna uppsats handlar om hur bildspråk och metaforer kan användas i fysikläromedel på högstadiet. Syftet var att undersöka bildspråket i två olika läromedel och deras respektive lättlästa versioner. Bildspråksidentifikationen har gjorts utifrån definitionen av att tala om en sak i form av en annan. I analysen undersöks didaktiskt medvetna metaforer och hur dessa omarbetas till lättläst. Bildspråk
I denna uppsats behandlas den aktuella och pågående debatten gällande det kontroversiella beslutet om att fotbolls-VM ska hållas i Qatar 2022. Syftet med denna uppsats är att redogöra de olika ställningstaganden för eller emot bojkott utav fotbolls-VM i Qatar 2022 utifrån åtta stycken svenska artiklar. Genom en argumentationsanalys har åtta artiklar analyserats för att klargöra artiklarnas olika s
This study aims to contribute to the knowledge of activism, specifically the culture of political activism at the level of the individual lived experience. Ernesto Laclau and Chantal Mouffe’s Hegemony and Socialist Strategy Towards a Radical Democratic Politics (2014) draws from Antonio Gramsci’s concept of cultural hegemony and develops a theoretical framework for how social movements can effecti
Cementstabiliserad asfalt (CSA) är ett kompositslitlager bestående av en asfaltbeläggning med högt hålrum som är fyllt med en cementbaserad slamma. Produkten kan därför kallas för ett semiflexibelt slitlager på grund av att egenskaper från både asfalt och betong kombineras. Egenskaperna som kännetecknar CSA är asfaltens elasticitet samt cementens bärighet och beständighet, hög motståndskraft mot kCement stabilized asphalt (CSA) is a composite layer consisting of an asphalt with high cavity which is filled with a cement-based slurry. The product can therefore be called a semiflexible wearing course because of its combined characteristics from both asphalt and concrete. The characteristic features of CSA are the asphalts elasticity and the cements buoyancy and resistance, high resistance aga
A new type of nanoparticle generator is being developed at Lund University. This project aimed to characterize it in order to produce a stable aerosol for medical inhalation applications. This project characterized size distributions during different parameter settings for the generator. The experimental work included assessing the effect of cleaning the generator between experiments for experimen
This study investigates how the political will for strengthening resilience has developed within the city of Bristol, focusing on how this is shaped by factors at local, national and international scales. Thematic analysis of Bristol City Council policy documents and interviews with participants from a range of different organisations throughout the city are used to gather data. The findings are a
Vegetation monitoring over time is important in a changing world due to climate change. Remote sensing, especially with the use of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV), can be utilized to monitor vegetation at flexible scales at an accurate degree. However, the relatively new remote sensing platforms that are UAVs imply the requirement of understanding how to best monitor vegetation in an accurate way w
Between 2017 and 2025 Sweden is in need of an additional 600 000 homes to supply the current widespread shortage of housing. At the same time, this addition should preferably take place without taking new land in use. One way to densify effectively is to use existing industrial facilities in central locations. This thesis aims at promoting cultural and architectural history by creating recommendat
Two decades after emerging from war and after many years of delay, Bosnia and Herzegovina at last submitted an EU membership application in 2016. There is little doubt, however, that candidate status and accession are still a long way off. Reform process is slow, and the country’s state of democracy is undermined by a variety of factors. To evaluate perspectives for the future, this paper investig
The global production and use of plastic is increasing and a substantial part will end up in aquatic environments where it will degrade into micro- and nanoplastic particles (NPPs). NPPs will interact with naturally occurring biomolecules present in aquatic environments which in turn will affect the properties of the particles. The purpose of this study was thus to investigate how organic matter a
Talent Management is a vague concept that is covering everything from recruiting, developing and retaining talents within organisations. A constant challenge in this field is to develop new generations within the workforce to fit what the organisation needs in order to do business. Generations are said to be shaped after historical and political factors that are impacting their behaviors and requi
The purpose of this master’s thesis project is to aid Thomson Reuters to forecast soil moisture, enhancing the agricultural productivity of its clients. This thesis focuses on testing the company’s HBV model (HBV-TR) to accurately produce daily soil moisture values in Brazil, France, and the U.S.A. The problem is that, up to this day, the most reliable monitoring of this soil water content is als
