Detta examensarbete undersöker möjligheten att förbättra produktnivåmätningen i en av Tetra Paks fyllnadsmaskiner, eftersom den nuvarande lösningen inte detekterar den med den önskvärda precisionen, samt mätområde. Idag används en magnetisk flottör tillsammans med 16 separata kapacitiva sensorer. Problemet med detta är att förpackningar blir avvisade på grund av en felaktig mängd produkt. Detta skThis thesis examines the possibility to improve the product level sensing in one of Tetra Pak’s filling machines, because the current solution does not detect this with the desirable precision, as well as measuring range. Today, a magnetic float is used together with 16 separate capacitive sensors. The issue with this is that packages get rejected due to a faulty amount of product. This occurs bec

MAX IV laboratoriet ger forskare möjlighet att analysera och studera material på atomnivå genom att använda högenergetiska ljusstrålar. Synkrotronljusanläggningen MAX IV genererar intensiva strålar av elektromagnetisk strålning, inklusive röntgenstrålning. Delayline detector DLD 8080 (DLD) är ett instrument som används för att detektera intensiteten och positionen av till exempel röntgenstrålning

Intresset för att genomföra denna studie springer ur våra tankar från två områden – dels positiva erfarenheter av kamratrespons inom andra skolämnen än musik, dels positiva erfarenheter av att spela i band där feedback mellan medlemmar spelar en central roll. Studien tar avstamp i två frågeställningar: vilka faktorer påverkar kvaliteten av kamratrespons i ensemble ur ett elevperspektiv och vilka eThe interest in conducting this study arises from our thoughts and findings from two main areas. Firstly, our positive experiences from peer response in other subjects than music, and secondly, our positive experiences from playing in bands where the feedback between members plays a key role. The study starts with two questions: what factors affect the quality of peer response in ensemble lessons

Stålindustrin är den industrisektor som har högst utsläpp i världen. Ståltillverkning tillskrivs cirka 8 % av världens totala C02-utsläpp. Från den utgångspunkten är behovet av djup avkarbonisering av stålindustrin är uppenbart. Det mest gynnsamma alternativet för att fasa ut fossila bränslen från produktionen av stål är att övergå till ståltillverkning från grönt väte. I denna rapport undersöks k

This study investigates the potential of large language models (LLMs), such as ChatGPT, to aid venture capitalists in the screening of startups that maximize sustainability impact. To determine the scope that maximizes impact for venture capitalists' and to identify effective screening criteria, the study utilized theoretical research and interviews. The thesis suggests that the ideal investme

This thesis examines what drives import price inflation in the EU by decomposing it into supply and demand driven inflation. The decomposition is done by using product level import data retrieved from Eurostat. The paper examines the period from 2019-01 to 2023-01 which captures events such as the Covid-19 and the war in Ukraine. To classify the product as demand or supply driven, two methods are

This degree project focused on the evaluation of the facilities, production process and conditions within a brewery production site in order to identify potential contamination risks in the beer production process and suggested actions for improving and enhancing protection against contamination. The project was performed in collaboration with a microbrewing company that produces beers with differ

Abstract: This research explores the experiences of Somali woman students, to gain an understanding on how the subgroup interacts within and around campus, in relation to their race, gender and cultural identity. This research aims to acknowledge the multiple barriers and factors which may aid or hinder their experiences. The findings allowed for thematic analysis. The study observed that the par

Reconfigurable intelligence surface (RIS) is a promising candidate technology for future 6G wireless communication systems. In existing communication systems, the network operators are unable to control the propagation environment, which causes significant limitations on communication performance. RIS aims to create favorable propagation conditions via programmable phase shifts. Employing RIS can

Increased average temperatures, rising sea levels and heat waves are some examples of the consequences of climate change. Cities are particularly vulnerable to climate-related events due to their structure and lack of green and blue spaces causing negative impacts on both the environment and public health. Children are one of the most sensitive groups to heat waves and they spend plenty of time in

In the last decade, the European Union (EU) has faced several different security challenges, such as terrorist attacks, military conflicts, and a refugee crisis, threatening the safety of its citizens and interests. This has contributed to the EU's desire to improve its security and defense capacity. As part of the solution, the EU established the European Peace Facility (EPF) in 2021, which p

Three quinoa-containing breads made from three different varieties of quinoa were presented as test products to be compared with a control of regular white wheat bread. The study was a randomised controlled single-blind, crossover in which blood glucose, insulin and subjective appetite sensations “Hunger”, “Satiety” and “Desire to eat” were measured in regular intervals during a three hours period

Hazardous substances i.e., substances of concern pose a risk to both human health and the environment. Stricter regulations and increased focus on circular economy are pushing organisations to substitute hazardous chemicals to safer alternatives. Substitution can lead to a number of benefits, for example cost reductions and competitive advantages. There has been a growing focus on substitution sin

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to examine the meaning of an organizational culture certification. We are intending to create a deeper insight into the certification process, its outcomes and benefits in order to get an understanding of how the concept can be interpreted in a scientific manner. We further aim to challenge the current perspective of organizational culture certifications a

This study explored the importance of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) in maintaining gut health and how different diets affect their levels. Blood plasma and serum samples from mice subjected to two intervention studies on oats and fruits were analysed to determine SCFA concentrations. Using a one-way ANOVA, the study compared SCFA levels in five different diet groups focused on fruit supplementa

I denna rapport analyseras koncept för tandborstar med låg vikt och kort tillverkningstid. Förhoppningen är att låg vikt och kort tillverkningstid kan leda till positiva effekter såsom lägre koldioxidfotavtryck, mindre materialanvändning och en mer kostnadseffektiv tillverkning än vad som gäller för dagens tandborstar. Med hjälp av Ulrich & Eppingers produktutvecklingsprocess har flera olika kThe work presented in this report investigates how a toothbrush can be designed to be lightweight and at the same time fast to manufacture. If a low weight and short manufacturing time can be obtained, several other advantages can be had, such as reduced carbon dioxide footprint, less need of material, and more cost-efficient manufacturing. With the help of Ulrich and Eppinger’s product developmen

Cereals constitute a large portion of the nutritional intake in the world and are an essential part of a sustainable future. The common oat (Avena Sativa L.) has a unique composition of nutrients, including many lipids. One problem with this is the inability to be stored during a longer period due to the high lipase activity which releases bitter free fatty acids (FFA). Heat treatment is the most

Since 1962, Sweden has gained significant global influence through its generous foreign aid policy. However, in late 2022 a new foreign aid policy was announced which includes several drastic and controversial changes. This study demonstrates the significance of taking the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the severest conflict in Europe since 1945, into consideration to understand this change of forei
