Detta examensarbete har gjorts I samarbete med Tylö AB, ett bastuföretag med säte i Halmstad. De hade behov av att utreda möjligheten att använda universella, gärna likadana, gångjärn på alla sina bastudörrar i glas. Idag används flera olika typer av gångjärn beroende på var dörren ska monteras och alla olika gångjärn kräver olika typer av bearbetning på glasdörren för att kunna monteras. Tylö vilDevelopment of hinges for sauna glass doors 42 doors – one hinge. Our solution makes it possible to replace the three hinges currently used at Tylö AB with a single one and use it on all of the 42 door types at Tylö. This master thesis was performed in collaboration with the Swedish sauna company Tylö AB. They were in need of a new type of universal hinge for their sauna glass doors. Today, they u

Food insecurity is a persistent challenge in the developing world, particularly the Sub-Saharan African region. Based on the latest report on the state of the World Food Insecurity, an estimate of 28% of the population in the Sub-Saharan Africa is recorded to be malnourished. This enduring challenge, therefore, requires further studies to shed light on the underlying causes of the problem and find

Priming effects have gotten revived interest in the last decade due to the concerns of global warming. Priming are defined as an increase in decomposition of soil organic matter due to the addition of organic or mineral substances. The worldwide used herbicide glyphosate is rapidly degraded by microorganisms. Hence, it might give rise to priming effects in soils. This was tested by adding glyphosa

Roten till cancer? Cancer är en ledande orsak till en stor mängd dödsfall i världen och därför en fruktad sjukdom. Forskningen gör dock framsteg och man kommer allt närmre svaren på gåtorna. På senare år har det föreslagits att en speciell typ av celler, cancerstamceller, är drivande och ligger bakom flera av cancersjukdomarnas egenskaper. Alla organismer är uppbyggda av celler, den stora majoriIn recent years increasing evidence supporting the stem cell hypothesis have emerged and cancer stem cells (CSCs) have been reported to have been isolated in a wide variety of cancers. This CSC population has been attributed to contribute to the therapeutic resistance of many cancers and it is thus of great interest to find new therapeutic options targeting these cells. In ileal carcinoids however

The extent of today's land degradation and desertification in the arid, semi-arid. and sub humid regions of China is a serious threat to the social and economic development in these areas. A national programme for monitoring and classification of drylands has been implemented by the Chinese Academy of Science. Areas are classified into degrees of desertification on the basis of vegetation cove

Patienter som vårdas på intensivvårdsavdelningen (IVA) är kritiskt sjuka. Inter-nationella samt nationella studier visar på att många patienter kan efter att ha vårdats på IVA, få psykiska besvär så som ångest, depression och posttraumatisk stress (PTSD). En bidragande faktor för att utveckla dessa besvär har visat sig vara obehagliga och traumatiska minnen. Syftet med studien var att beskriva pat

Title: The value relevance of goodwill Seminar date: June 3th 2022 Course: FEKH69, Degree Project, Business Administration, Undergraduate level, 15 UPC Authors: Albin Johansson, David Larsson & Jacob Svensson Advisor: Maria Gårdängen Key words: goodwill, value relevance, accounting harmonization, market efficiency & the nature of goodwill Research question: Does the value relevance o

This thesis investigates whether incorporating the Christoffersen independence test into regulatory backtesting frameworks can enhance financial stability by improving the detection of systemic risk. Using daily Value-at-Risk and profit-and-loss data from 13 major international banks over 2018–2022, the study distinguishes between clustered and isolated VaR exceptions, applying event studies and p

This article explores lesson enactments as co-constitutive of human-technology relationality in everyday schooling, rather than neutral backdrops for educational activities. In doing so, the article introduces maintenance as its key concept, drawing on insights from maintenance studies and actor-network theory (ANT). Being both theoretically and empirically informed, maintenance means reconsiderinThis article explores lesson enactments as co-constitutive of human-technology relationality in everyday schooling, rather than neutral backdrops for educational activities.

Real-time 3D reconstruction is crucial for immersive AR/VR but is hard to achieve with traditional photogrammetry and mesh-based pipelines due to latency and limited scalability. Neural Radiance Fields (NeRF) enable high-quality novel view synthesis but suffer from long training and slow rendering, while Gaussian Splatting (GS) achieves real-time rendering at the cost of heavy preprocessing and me

Introduction: This multicenter, prospective observational study aimed to evaluate the performance of the StatStrip® Lactate 2 (Nova Biomedical, Waltham, US) point-of-care device for fetal blood lactate measurement and to determine the corresponding lactate value equivalent to the established intervention cutoff used with the outgoing StatStrip® Lactate device. Material and Methods: The study was c

Objective: The aim of this study was to assess the incremental cost-effectiveness of on-demand versus prophylactic hemophilia therapy in Iran from a third-party payers’ perspective.Methods: A retrospective chart review of twenty-five type A hemophiliacs who were treated in three hemophilia treatment centers was conducted. The patients were boys 0–9 years old receiving one of two treatments: (i) pr

Microbial bio-aroma synthesized from biowaste, and its marketing is an emerging aspect of future research due to their benefits. However, the sensory lexicon of bio-aroma has not yet been developed so far. This study aims to identify the smell characteristics of bio-aroma produced by fermentative yeast Kluyveromyces marxianus by solid-state fermentation, where the sample was extracted from ferment

We have previously performed empirical valence bond calculations of the kinetic activation barriers, Δ G‡calc, for the deprotonation of complexes between TIM and the whole substrate glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (GAP, Kulkarni et al. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2017 , 139 , 10514 - 10525 ). We now extend this work to also study the deprotonation of the substrate pieces glycolaldehyde (GA) and GA·HPi [HPi = pho
