Purpose - Food lost or wasted constitutes a substantial environmental, economic and social problem; today roughly one-third of edible parts of food that is produced for human consumption globally gets lost or wasted. Thus, a reduction of waste would contribute to a sustainable use of resources. It has been highlighted that packaging development has the potential to play an important role in this p
Global levels of carbon emissions are constantly rising causing irreversible damages to ecosystems. The heavy transport sector and the industrial sector are responsible for large amounts of the emissions on a yearly basis. Therefore, Power-to-X is presented as an alternative pathway for the production of industry standard chemical, in view of a green transition towards decarbonising emission-heavy
This thesis was done in collaboration with the department of Food Technology at LTH, Aventure AB, and Arwa Foodtech AB. The aim of the project was to develop the base for a baobab based, spoonable protein snack, comparable to quarg but free from ingredients of animal origin. At the time of writing, one of the biggest if not the biggest trend in the food industry is the replacement of animal-source
The purpose of this study was to investigate the applicability of data-driven experimental design for the optimization of a hard coating for cutting tools in metal machining. The complexity of metal machining leads to difficulty in theoretically modeling and understanding the interactions and correlations between parameters and performance. Because of this and the importance of incremental perform
Alla verksamheter som behandlar personuppgifter, men en anknytning till EU, måste uppfylla kravet på laglighet i GDPR. En särskilt viktig laglig grund i praktiken utgörs av artikel 6.1(f) GDPR. I korthet följer av artikeln att en av-vägning måste göras mellan den personuppgiftsansvariges berättigade intresse och den registrerades intressen och grundläggande rättigheter. Idag använder allt fler föAny businesses that process personal data, with a connection to the EU, must fulfill the legality requirement of the GDPR. A particularly important legal basis in practice is Article 6.1(f) GDPR. In short, the article requires a balance to be struck between the legitimate interest of the controller and the fundamental rights and interests of the data subject. Today, more and more companies are u
Popular Abstract in Swedish Svenska Pommerns historia är en del av den svenska historien. Mellan 1648 och 1815 hörde den tyska Östersjöprovinsen till det svenska väldet. Denna avhandling skildrar människorna och deras syn på Sverige under de sista hundra åren av svensk tillhörighet mellan 1720 och 1815. Hur påverkades provinsens invånare av att å ena sidan räkna sig till den tyska kulturen och å aBetween 1648 and 1815, Swedish-Pomerania, at the Baltic shore, belonged to the crown of Sweden. It was both a part of the Holy Roman Empire of German Nation and the Swedish realm. The port town of Stralsund played a key roll in the Swedish economy at the Baltic Sea, whereas the university town of Greifswald was the intellectual centre. On a cultural level, this situation opened up for a double ins
Popular Abstract in Swedish För att öka förståelsen för hur ljud sprider sig och strålar från byggnadskonstruktioner utförda i lättbyggnadsteknik så behövs teoretiska beräkningsmodeller. Sådana modeller presenteras i avhandlingen. Med lättbyggnadsteknik avses konstruktioner som inte är massiva, exempelvis väggar och bjälklag bestående av trä- eller stålreglar/bjälkar. Stegljudet, det vill säga det
Popular Abstract in Swedish Denna avhandling presenterar en teori om hur utforskande och hantering av verktyg kan få människor att överskrida förutfattade begränsningar. Personer med grava kognitiva funktionshinder har mycket svåra begränsningar i sina förutsättningar att delta i aktiviteter som kan skapa mål och mening och bidra till förändringar i deras liv. De har svårartade inskränkningar närThe Driving to Learn project explored possible achievements of training people with cognitive disabilities in a joystick-operated powered wheelchair utilizing the grounded theory approach. Theoretical sampling led the concomitant collection and analysis of data. During a period of 12 years, 45 participants with profound cognitive disabilities, aged 12 months to 52 years, were engaged in the projec
The objective of this thesis is to analyze the development and diffusion of Photovoltaic Power Systems (PVPS’) in Denmark, identify drivers and barriers for further dissemination, and explore how the policy framework supports the diffusion of PVPS’’ and thus contribute to learning within this field. The focus is on grid-connected PVPS’, which are either used as an “add-on” device or integrated int
Introduction: The Emergency Department (ED) is a complex environment. Patients present with many different complaints with alternating severity. This setting makes time efficiency and diagnostic accuracy crucial. The use of checklists in medicine has been successful in several medical fields, such as in reducing surgical complications and in decreasing catheter-related bloodstream infections in th
Ebola virus (EBOV) belongs to the group of nonsegmented negative-sense RNA viruses. The seven EBOV genes are separated by variable gene borders, including short (4- or 5-nucleotide) intergenic regions (IRs), a single long (144-nucleotide) IR, and gene overlaps, where the neighboring gene end and start signals share five conserved nucleotides. The unique structure of the gene overlaps and the prese
The advent of optogenetic tools has had a profound impact on modern neuroscience research, revolutionizing our understanding of the brain. These tools offer a remarkable ability to precisely manipulate specific groups of neurons with an unprecedented level of temporal precision, on the order of milliseconds. This breakthrough has significantly advanced our knowledge of various physiological and pa
Is there beauty in rhetorical failure? This study is an exploration of disorder and death in the Gospel according to Mark (Mk). With a surviving fragment from the second-century theologian Papias of Hierapolis, the early reception of Mk locates insights into the composition of Jesus’s death, especially through the concepts of ataxia and rhetorical failure. Papias launches an early and influential
As robots increasingly integrate into our social environments, from factories to social spaces, there is a growing need to find ways to effectively collaborate in these dynamic environments. However, current robotics research is mostly aimed towards task and environment specific programming. Even the state-of-the-art collaborative robotics technologies lack or have a very rudimentary understanding

The WT1 protein, a product of the Wilms’ tumour 1 gene (WT1) is a zinc finger transcription factor implicated in a number of cellular processes particularly involved in the development of the urogenital system. Mutations in this gene have been implicated in abnormal development of the urogenital system resulting in syndromes such as the Denys-Drash, WAGR and Frasier and in the childhood kidney mal
In semiarid and arid Tunisia, water quality and agricultural practices are the major contributing factors to the degradation of soil resources threatening the sustainability of irrigation systems and agricultural productivity. Nowadays, about 50% of the total irrigated areas in Tunisia are considered at high risk for salinization. The aim of this thesis was to study soil management and salinity re
The aim of the paper is to discuss, with a broadly postcolonial sensibility, the complex role that language has come to play in the contemporary process of globalization. It attempts to show that language, besides being a medium of communication, has come to play a crucial role in companies’ conquest of the global market, on the one hand, and in defending a general idea of an imaginary homogenous
