Selecting the right stainless-steel (SS) grade for food processing equipment is a critical decision, since processing environments vary widely and a grade that performs well under one set of conditions may be inadequate under another. The following study evaluates the pitting corrosion resistance of three grades commonly used in the food industry, 316L, 2205 DSS and 254 SMO, under varying chloride
This thesis aimed to develop a rooftop tent targeting the needs of younger users. Using the Double Diamond design methodology the team was guided throughout the phases of the project. The research phase consisted of thorough market research, a questionnaire with over 50 participants and seven interviews. This data was then analyzed with the target user in mind by developing a methodology for mapp
Atypical femur fractures (AFF) are rare but clinically important fractures that have been associated with long-term mechanical loading and altered bone remodeling. In this study, a phase-field fatigue modeling framework was developed and calibrated to investigate fracture initiation in the femur under cyclic loading conditions representative of walking. The model was based on a previously publishe
Image compression is crucial for storing remote sensing data in space-constrained on-orbit systems. Current methods primarily follow two directions. The first combines wavelet transforms with post-processing, leveraging wavelets' sparse representation for multi-resolution analysis and efficient hardware implementation. The second employs compressed sensing (CS), which shifts complexity to the deco
As young people increasingly relocate due to work, study and shifting life circumstances, they are constantly adapting to new living environments and spatial layouts. This project explores how lighting design can support this evolving “nomadic” lifestyle — helping individuals establish a sense of home more quickly within unfamiliar spaces. It further investigates how lighting and furniture can bec
we present rearing records of Eulophidae resulting from five years of collecting leafminers and other herbivorous insects throughout the United States. These include the first documented hosts for Chrysocharis beckeri Yoshimoto, C. minuta (hansson), Closterocerus damastes walker (identification tentative), Diaulinopsis albiscapus (girault), Elasmus borrowi girault, Neochrysocharis cyaneoviridis ha
This thesis investigates the development of an object-oriented modular framework for PLC systems, intended for use at Etteplan, an international engineering consultancy. The thesis was motivated by recurring challenges in PLC projects, including unclear program flows, low code reusability, and limited scalability. These issues justify the need for a standardized framework grounded in the IEC 61131
Den ökade efterfrågan och turismen i Stockholms skärgård har skapat en identitetsmässig konflikt, där bebyggelseutvecklingen främst drivs av kommersiella besöksnäringar och privata fritidshus. Skärgårdsmiljön balanserar idag mellan strikt skyddade naturområden och exklusiva, privatiserade strandtomter, vilket lämnar lite utrymme för ett levande permanentliv. För att skärgården ska förbli en fungerThe growing demand and tourism in the Stockholm archipelago have created a conflict of identity, where property development is primarily driven by commercial hospitality industries and private seasonal housing. Today, the archipelago environment balances between strictly protected natural areas and exclusive, privatized shorelines, leaving little room for a vibrant, year-round community. For the a
Patient experience is defined as a major quality indicator that should be routinely measured during and after a colonoscopy, according to current ESGE guidelines. There is no standard approach measuring patient experience after the procedure and the comparative performance of the different colonoscopy-specific patient-reported experience measures (PREMs) is unclear. Therefore, the aim was to devel
The constituents of dark matter are still unknown, and the viable possibilities span a vast range of masses. The physics community has established searching for sub-GeV dark matter as a high priority and identified accelerator-based experiments as an essential facet of this search strategy. A key goal of the accelerator-based dark matter program is testing the broad idea of thermally produced sub-
OBJECTIVES: To define the clinical spectrum time-course and prognosis of non-Asian patients positive for anti-MDA5 antibodies.METHODS: We conducted a multicentre, international, retrospective cohort study.RESULTS: 149 anti-MDA5 positive patients (median onset age 53 years, median disease duration 18 months), mainly females (100, 67%), were included. Dermatomyositis (64, 43%) and amyopathic dermato
Introduction: The use of real-world data offers a possibility to perform large-scale epidemiological studies in actual clinical settings. Despite their many advantages, administrative databases were not designed to be used in research, and the validation of diagnoses and treatments in administrative databases is needed. The primary objective of this study was to validate an existing algorithm base
Inspired by the flow description of su(N) colour calculations, we recently showed how to simplify the spinor-helicity formalism (at the algebra level two copies of complexified su(2)) by treating each Weyl spinor as part of a flow line with definite chirality and momentum. This formalism, dubbed the chirality-flow formalism, eliminates all non-trivial algebra from tree-level spinor-helicity calcul
Insufficient nursing care is a major threat to a patient’s safety. Despite the development of evidence-based guidelines (EBGs) guiding the delivery of high-quality and effective nursing care, research presents an inadequate implementation of EBGs in clinical practice. Patients who appear to receive insufficient nursing care are older patients (≥65 years) with community-acquired pneumonia (CAP), a
Huvuddelen av all miljöpåverkan kan kopplas till vår konsumtion. I takt med att reallönerna ökar så ökar också konsumtionen – fler semesterresor, fler klädinköp, snabbare utbyte av produkter mot nyare versioner och så vidare. Denna utveckling utgör ett hot mot planetens tillstånd. I arbetetmed FN:s hållbarhetsmål ligger de nordiska länderna högt i den allmänna rankingen, men när det gäller delmål
A search for the K+ → π+X decay, where X is a long-lived feebly interacting particle, is performed through an interpretation of the K+ → π+νν¯ analysis of data collected in 2017 by the NA62 experiment at CERN. Two ranges of X masses, 0–110 MeV/c2 and 154–260 MeV/c2, and lifetimes above 100 ps are considered. The limits set on the branching ratio, BR(K+ → π+X), are competitive with previously repor
