The tea sector is one of Kenya's most important industries, with a big impact on the country's economy and socio-economic development. At the same time, tea manufacturing is highly energy-intensive and strongly affected by electricity tariffs and high production costs. Due to the favorable weather conditions and growing renewable energy ambitions in Kenya, Solar Photovoltaic (PV) systems p
Key actions, tactical cooperation, and spatial relationships in sports activities are usually recorded through 2D videos, which limits users’ ability to understand the game in three-dimensional space. Although professional sports events can provide Free-Viewpoint Video using large-scale camera arrays, such systems are difficult to deploy in low-cost scenarios such as community games and personal t
Sveriges utveckling i form av ett mer digitaliserat och elektrifierat samhälle medför en högre belastning på elnätet. Samtidigt är elnätet inte dimensionerad för denna belastning. Nätets kapacitet är direkt kopplat till effektuttag och för att jämna ut och minska höga effekttoppar i nätet beslutades det därför att införa effektavgifter senast den 1 januari 2027. Under tiden arbetet skrevs beslutadSweden’s development towards a more digitalized and electrified society is increasing the load on the electricity grid. At the same time, the grid is not dimensioned for this level of demand. The grid capacity is directly linked to power demand, and to reduce and smooth out high-power peaks, it was decided that demand-based electricity tariffs would be introduced no later than January 1, 2027.

De flesta människor kommer någon gång under sina liv att uppleva en traumatisk händelse, vilket kan öka risken för att utveckla allvarliga psykiatriska tillstånd som exempelvis depression och posttraumatiska stress (PTS) symtom, samt påverka olika aspekter av individens liv och fungerande. En aspekt av livet som många värdesätter högt är föräldraskap och därmed är det viktigt att undersöka hur traMost people will at some point in their lives experience a traumatic event, and for some, this may increase the risk of developing serious psychiatric disorders such as depression and post-traumatic stress (PTS) symptoms and can affect their functioning in many aspects of their lives. One aspect of life that many people value highly is parenting, and it is therefore important to investigate how tr
Det svenska totalförsvaret befinner sig i ett expansivt skede där stora summor satsas på att öka rikets försvarsförmåga och resiliens. Parallellt med de materiella satsningarna bedrivs också forskning om invånarnas försvarsvilja med syfte att förstå och kartlägga befolkningens villighet att bidra genom olika försvarsstödjande insatser. För att kontextualisera och fördjupa den kvantitativa statist
Sveriges elsystem genomgår en förändring i takt med att andelen väderberoende kraftproduktion ökar. Kraftvärmeverk, som traditionellt haft en tydlig roll som planerbar kraft, möter ett allt hårdare ekonomiskt tryck när marginalerna på spotmarknaden pressas. Detta examensarbete undersöker hur ett kraftvärmeverk i elområde SE3 kan förbättra sin lönsamhet genom deltagande på mFRR D-1 kapacitetsmarknaSweden’s electricity system is undergoing change as the share of weather-dependent power production increases. Combined heat and power (CHP) plants, traditionally valued for their dispatchability, face growing economic pressure as spot market margins tighten. This thesis investigates how a CHP plant in Swedish electricity area SE3 can improve its profitability by participating in the manual freque
Asymmetrisk flödesfraktionering (AF4) är en separationsteknik som används för att separera större partiklar, såsom lipidnanopartiklar (LNP) eller makromolekylära polymerer. I kombination med småvinkelneutronspridning (SANS) ger detta möjlighet att undersöka partiklarnas inre struktur, istället för att endast mäta partiklarnas allmänna storlek. Att integrera SANS-mätningen som en kontinuerlig mätniAsymmetric flow field flow fractionation (AF4) is a prominent separation technique used to separate larger particles such as lipid nanoparticles or macromolecular polymers. When combined with Small angle neutron scattering (SANS), this provides the possibility to probe the inner structure of the particles, instead of only probing the general size of the particles. However, putting the SANS measure
This thesis aims to evaluate the extent to which income from embedded royalties in mixed contracts generated by a subsidiary falling under the ATAD’s CFC rules can be attributed to the tax base of the parent company as “any other income generated from intellectual property” as established by Article 7(2)(a)(ii) ATAD in light of the freedom of establishment under Article 49 TFEU. First, it explains
Scenisk kör är något som vi har uppmärksammat växer i körvärlden i stort. Tiden när varje kör står i en körbanan med sina pärmar och framför musiken som de har övat in håller på att ändras. Därför har vi som musiklärarstudenter på Musikhögskolan i Malmö genomfört en aktionsforskningsstudie där vi har hållit i tre workshops med kören Bella Voce - Lunds Studentsångerskor där vi har undersökt hur körScenic choir is a growing phenomenon in the choral world at large. Increasingly, choir singers are no longer simply standing still in a formation commonly referred to as a Choir banana, holding their music folder while performing rehearsed music: the times are changing. This reflection has led us, as music teacher students at the Malmö Academy of Music, to conduct an Action Research study aiming t
Olive cultivation has a deep-rooted tradition in the Mediterranean region, with Spain, Greece and Italy currently leading global production. To protect public health and prevent fraud, the trade of extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) is strictly regulated by EU and IOC quality standards. This thesis presents a comparative quality analysis of six EVOO products from these countries. The study evaluates wh
Although synonymous codons code for the same amino acid, the conformation of the protein can be altered depending on which codon is used. Previous research in the field has provided contradictory results, and it is not yet fully understood how and why the conformation of the protein can change as a result of altered nucleotide sequence. The effect of rare synonymous mutations on ddlB folding has b
This thesis explores how audiences experience and manage their guilty pleasures when listening to “bad” K-pop songs. By employing Goffman’s (1986) concept of stigma and Scambler’s distinction between stigma and deviance as the main analytical lenses, and drawing on other frameworks associated with taste, the study investigates how listeners understand, respond to, and justify their guilty pleasure
Disasters are occurring at an increased rate and with increased intensity. The impacts of a disaster are felt across the whole of society; however, not everyone experiences a disaster in the same way. Pre-existing vulnerabilities and inequalities have a significant influence on the experiences of individuals and communities within disasters. Disasters are not natural; they can be prevented, and th
The protein Painless is an ion channel coupled receptor that is present in the mosquito Aedes aegypti transmitting yellow fever. The protein is activated by noxious heat. It has been a long-term goal to determine the protein structure and consequently be able to develop a mosquito repellant. The aims of the thesis were to purify and isolate heterologously expressed Painless from yeast cells and ex
This ethnographic study takes a phenomenological approach to examining the experiences of urban explorers in Sweden. Data collection took place in Skåne and Stockholm between October 2025 and February 2026, using the qualitative methods of semistructured interviews and participant observation. Urban exploration encompasses a wide range of practices; this thesis centers around its core aspect of vi
This thesis investigates non-intrusive Room Impulse Response (RIR) estimation using music as an excitation signal in an acoustic environment with background noise present. The work studies the structure of room impulse responses, sparse background noise, babble noise, and music excitation signals in the context of RIR estimation. Building on the recently proposed AnyRIR estimator, which explored s
α-CGRP 8-37 is a peptide fragment of calcitonin gene-related peptide and is commonly used as a CGRP antagonist in pharmacological research. CGRP signaling has been discussed in relation to neuroimmune mechanisms in psoriasis, but a practical development of α-CGRP 8-37 requires analytical methods and formulation strategies that can handle peptide instability, adsorption, and matrix effects. The aim
