A joint research between Lund University and Chalmers Competence Centre for Catalysis have shown promising results for a Rh-based catalyst for CO2 hydrogenation catalytic applications. The original catalyst consisted of a dispersion of nanoparticles onto a porous 3D oxide network. To gain a deeper understanding of the catalyst, a surface science study is necessary, but it is impossible to perform
This study deals with the health and wellbeing of humans who work in offices as well as the energy use for the lighting. The focus is on how integrative lighting and daylight harvesting can be combined in an attempt to reduce the energy consumption while still eliciting a circadian response for the workers. The aim of this study is to investigate a combination of integrative lighting and daylight
The need for adapting business models to sustainable business models is revolutionizing many industries where business as usual stops being an option from a social or environmental perspective. The adoption of sustainable business models occurs in both developed and developing markets however, due to the nature of the two environments being notably different, it is expected that the sustainable bu
The thesis examines the relationship between the detention regime in the Special Controls of Aliens Act (SFS 1991:572, SCAA) and the right to personal liberty and security; the presumption of innocence; and the principle of legality. The aim is to assess whether the legislation is a suitable counter-terrorism measure from a rule of law perspective. The thesis also aims to place the SCAA in an inte
Blockchain has been considered the most revolutionary innovation since the implementation of the Internet. As it has started to penetrate into various industries, many foresee that this information technology has the ability to change the way business is carried across the globe. The thesis aims to address the compatibility of agreements or concerted practices between undertakings by the usage of
Background In a world where the rate of technological change is constantly accelerating, it is getting more and more important for companies to adopt new technologies and processes to stay competitive. Most recently, the concept of Industry 4.0 has emerged as the newest technological paradigm within industrial management and has its roots in the German government’s technological strategy. On a hig
Internet dating has with the advent of dating apps gone mobile. Furthermore, social media apps and virtual contact are playing an increasing vital role in courtship and flirtation processes while also easing the aches of distance relationships. Online behaviors have consequences on mental health, the purpose of this bachelor thesis is to examine what the dominant dating apps and social media platf
The objective of this thesis was to perform multidisciplinary sensitivity and uncertainty analysis of the building parameters integrating thermal comfort, energy and daylight. The case study of a Danish office building was used for performing the simulations. The study evaluated the suitability of developed methodology for further usage in the early design stages of the building projects. A litera
“Choice blindness” (CB) refers to a certain tendency to accept a choice that is presented to us as if it were our own, even when we have never made it. In the last decade, CB has been treated as a research tool in a series of experiments in different domains and modalities (e.g. Johansson et al. 2005, 2008; Hall et al. 2010, 2013; Sagana et. al 2014; Cochran et al. 2016) in order to study the rela
The claims for the potential of boreal and sub-boreal forests to combat negative effects of climate change have been substantial with over half of Earth’s primary forests found within boreal and temperate regions of the Northern Hemisphere. Given the likely occurrence of more extreme climate events in the future, ascertaining a better understanding of how climate effects, such as profound fluctu
Denna uppsats undersöker hur formatet i en televiserad slutdebatt påverkar bilden av politik. Uppsatsen diskuterar moderatorns roll och på vilket sätt partiledarna har möjlighet att styra och sätta sin politik på dagordningen. Uppsatsen behandlar även hur partiledarna använder ethos, pathos och logos i sin argumentation får att stärka sin egen och partiets trovärdighet för att sätta sin politik på
Emotion regulation and emotional work can have both positive and negative effects. Previous studies have suggested that emotion regulation is taught through early life socialization, and that this socialization may be gendered. If this were the case, we learn to regulate our emotions differently, and for some to, for instance, be socialized into suppressing their emotions may lead to negative cons
This thesis explores the extent to which the Southern Transitional Council (STC) in Yemen has manifested itself as a partner of the Arab coalition and its aspirations to take the lead in regional and international politics and conflict resolution through the Yemen crisis. It also uses Qualitative Content Analysis to analyze fourteen interviews with key stakeholders and experts from various politic
A Kondo lattice skyrmion model in contact with a macroscopic environment is simulated to explore skyrmion dynamics, which is an extension of previous work. The system is simulated using non-equilibrium Green's functions within the generalized Kadanoff-Baym ansatz and the wide band limit. To get a time-linear scaling, we present an approximation to the collision integral, which offers a good tr
This project investigated the impact of beta-glucan on sponge cake's desired texture and physical properties. Sponge cakes with different percentages of Lantmännens PromOat beta-glucan (0.0%, 1.0% and 2.0%) were produced and compared on the following parameters: volume, density, water activity, moisture content and texture profile analyses. These parameters were measured on different storage d
Metabolism plays a crucial role in an animal’s life as it determines the amount of energy that can be allocated to growth, reproduction, and survival. The strategies an individual adopts to manage its energy budget have direct consequences to its fitness. How an animal allocates its energy will determine whether it can ensure its own survival while having a high reproductive success or neglect one
The advent of new technologies for single-cell RNA sequencing analyses has resulted in the discovery that the myeloid compartment in the tumor microenvironment (TME) is far more complex than previously appreciated, and that intrinsic and extrinsic factors in the TME highly influence the immunosuppressive or active states of these cell types. There is now a need to develop multiplex assays to ident
Denna uppsats undersöker det framväxande förhållandet mellan geografiska beteckningar (Geographical Indications, GI) och varumärken inom EU-lagstiftningen, med särskilt fokus på den rättsliga utvecklingen som mynnat ut i förordning 2024/1143. Även om både GI och varumärken utgör immate-riella rättigheter, tjänar de olika syften. Varumärken skyddar främst privata kommersiella intressen och företagsThis thesis explores the evolving relationship between geographical indica-tions (GIs) and trademarks within European Union (EU) law, with a particu-lar focus on the legal developments culminating in Regulation 2024/1143. While both GIs and trademarks are forms of intellectual property, they serve different purposes. Trademarks primarily protect commercial brand identity, while GIs are recognised
Information management is a central part of organizations in today´s society, and critical research is continuously made to assess the reliability of sources. Previous studies have suggested that information with confidential sources tends to be perceived as more credible compared to open sources. The aim of the thesis was to analyze the perceived credibility of information from confidential versu
