The background for this master thesis is the stricter emission control requirement in heavyduty diesel engines at the same time as the demands for improved diesel engine efficiency are getting stronger. One approach to meet these demands is to increase the fuel injector pressure. A higher fuel injector pressure makes the fuel spray more finely dispersed into the cylinder and a better combustion is
Packaging is one of the logistics areas where there often is potential and even a demand for improvements. An increase in environmental awareness among the population in the European Union (EU) has generated a demand for changes in packaging, which has led to stricter rules and regulations. Knowledge about what regulations are present and what may be expected in the future is crucial in the formin
Damping is present in all dynamic systems. In one way or another energy is being dissipated in the system. To capture this aspect of reality in a computational model is a difficult task. A common simplification is to assume that the damping is of a linear viscous nature. This assumption provides an equation of motion (linear dynamics) which is easy to handle mathematically. However, the simplicity of
Estimating depth from an image is an ill-fitted problem, since we project a three-dimensional space to a two-dimensional image. However, human can estimate a plausible depth from only a single eye and often are we relaying on this for quick estimation of moving objects. Although machine learning has shown to be powerful in computer vision tasks, the process of constructing deep learning models is

In the Interest of the Nation ASG 2019-2020 The theme for this Advanced Study Group (ASG) is the significance of language in the generation of evaluated information (intelligence) in a structured process (intelligence process). The interdisciplinary elucidation of linguistic, cognitive and legal aspects of practical information management is likely to result in new material of both scientific and

How can we create conditions for higher education which develop a student’s ability to acquire meaningful knowledge and take actions that carry the stamp of reality? How can we create conditions where the students develop the capacity to do their very best, even in a changing, complicated and unforeseen situation? This article emphasises the role of intuition in the learning process where rational
In the automotive industry, it is common that the customers provide the suppliers with the necessary packing material needed for delivery of the goods. The reason for this is that it makes the handling and unpacking of incoming goods at the customer easy, but it also makes sure that the quality of the packing material is high, and that the transportation damages of the goods are minimised. It shou
Introduction: Identification and quantification of OxPCs and LPCs in the lung surfactant with non-invasive sampling techniques and validated analytical methods are of great importance in terms of exploring biomarkers of oxidative stress in lung and other lung related diseases. Background: Although there are some well-structured analytical methods for the detection and quantification of OxPCs, the
The European Position Paper on Rhinosinusitis and Nasal Polyps 2020 is the update of similar evidence based position papers published in 2005 and 2007 and 2012. The core objective of the EPOS2020 guideline is to provide revised, up-to-date and clear evidence-based recommendations and integrated care pathways in ARS and CRS. EPOS2020 provides an update on the literature published and studies undert
AbstractModern medicine and health care rely on a variety of diagnostic and therapeutic equipment and methods that involve ionizing radiation. To guarantee quality and the safety of patients and staff, advanced radiation detectors and dosemeters are needed that have low energy and operate with directional independence for X-ray and γ-ray photons. Similar instruments are also of great importance fo
Renewable energy is gaining increasing importance in the generation of power due to the finite existence of fossil fuels and concerns about climate change. As its demand grows financial interest from investors’ increases, thus it is important to find the most effective way of quantifying the risk of the renewable energy market. Furthermore as renewable energy can be viewed as an economic substitut
In 2010 there will be a political resolution to ensure that the Swedish society is accessible to all citizens including people with disabilities. For this purpose a national action plan for disability policy "From patient to citizen" (Govt. Bill 1999/2000:79) has been set out with the aim of ensuring that the disability perspective will permeate every sector of society and that the appro
ISA 610 är en revisionsstandard som en revisor kan använda sig av för att söka vägledning kring omfattningen av god revisionssed vid användandet av internrevisionens arbete. Standarden ska i år omarbetas och den nya versionen av standarden kommer att träda i kraft i december 2013. Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka vad själva förändringen innebär samt hur detta kan tänkas påverka revisionenThe ISA 610 is an auditing standard, which the auditor can turn to in order to seek guidance on the scope of auditing in case of using the work of the internal audit. The standard is being revised this year and the new version will come into force in December 2013. The aim of this thesis is to investigate what the impact of this revision may mean and how this may affect the auditing and the users

Electrification of energy demand is seen as one of the key elements of energy transition toward decarbonisation. E-mobility is one main side of the electrification process, and it is considered as a crucial way to reduce the emissions of the transport sector. A core element for a widespread adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) is the deployment of the charging infrastructure, and installing a micro
