The goal of this master thesis was to examine some of the available development tools for augmented reality in mobile applications. The best development tool were then used in development of an application for Android or iOS. The thesis has two main parts, the analysis of development tools and the application development. During the analysis ve dierent commercial development tools for augmented re
Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) images are used to investigate the heart for medical and research purposes. By injecting a contrast substance into the patient, myocardial infarctions (heart attacks) can be visualized in CMR image sets consisting of a number of image slices at different levels of the heart. Analysis of these images can detect an infarction, delineate it and estimate its size. This
The integration of immigrants affects social stability in host countries, which becomes a potential and heat issue discussed by all walks of life. How well the immigrants integrate into the society largely relates to their economic status in host countries. This paper aims to study the relationship among ethnicity, ethnic identity and the outcomes of immigrants in labour market in thirteen selecte
This master thesis has been carried out as a part of the research project TESSPA, with commission from the department of Industrial Production at Lund University. The purpose is to further develop and verify a method o calculate the process cost at smaller companies with discrete part manufacturing and to identify improvement- and development potential. The work has been carried out in cooperation
In Sweden freedom of Speech is declared as a fundamental civil and serves as a prerequisite to the freedom of opinion within its constitutions, and is also enhanced by Sweden’s implementation of the European Convention on Human Rights. Sweden’s constitutional system also protects and regulates freedom of speech further through a divided and delegated system. However, as a result of difficult econo
The main purpose of this study was to investigate how social services work to reduce criminality among the youth, with children and adolescents that have already developed a criminal behaviour. We have also examined if and, in such cases, how social workers experience that their discretion is restricted by factors such as the law, routines and guidelines. The study is a qualitative one, based on t
The collection examines the view of the holiness in the "Holy Land" through the writings of pilgrims, travelers, and missionaries. The period extends from 1517, the Ottoman conquest of Syria and Palestine, to the Franco-British treaty of Utrecht in 1713 and the consolidation of European hegemony over the Mediterranean. The writers in the collection include Christians (Orthodox, Protestant, and Cat
The World Health Organization has a standardized tool to assess surgical capacity in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), but it is often resource- and time-intensive. There currently exists no simple, evidence-based measure of surgical capacity in these settings. The proportion of cesarean deliveries in regard to the total operations (C/O ratio) has been suggested as a way to assess quickly
Background: More than half of all new HIV infections in sub-Saharan African countries, including Uganda, occur among young people between the ages of 15 and 24, the most sexually active period of their lives. Understanding the contextual determinants of sexual behavior in this group is crucial in combating the pandemic. Aim: The overall aim of this study was to assess the impact of demographic, r
BackgroundNew evidence indicates that increased dietary protein ingestion promotes health and recovery from illness, and also maintains functionality in older adults. The present study aimed to investigate whether a novel food service concept with protein-supplementation would increase protein and energy intake in hospitalised patients at nutritional risk. MethodsA single-blinded randomised contro
Control loops that are closed over a communication network get more and more common. A problem with such systems is that the transfer delays will be varying with different characteristics depending on the network hardware and software. The network delays are typically varying due to varying network load, scheduling policies in the network and the nodes, and due to network failures. Two network mod
Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: Det största oljefältet på land i nordvästra Europa, Schoonebeekfältet i Nederländerna har varit föremål för denna studie. Oljeproduktionen stoppades på grund av att vatten trängt in i oljereservoaren. När vatten under produktionen blandas med olja sker detta på grund av att den existerande flödesmodellen av reservoaren är felaktig. Detta innebar att det blev eko
Much attention has been put on making new buildings have a "low energy" standard, but old buildings also need to become more energy efficient. In this paper, the emphasis has been put on trying to insulate the house so much that it complies with BBR's requirements. The house chosen is a house that is almost entirely constructed of brick. Exterior walls consist of double brick with an
Purpose: The Swedish Government considers it is important that both the local and regional level integrates the Europe 2020 strategy. The government expresses that the local municipality level has a central role to achieve some of the Swedish country-specific recommendations. The aim is to increase the understanding of the municipalities’ attitudes towards implementation of the Swedish country-spe
The purpose of this thesis is to try to establish a mechanism that will enable the Commission on the Limits of the Continental Shelf to get access to legal interpretation of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea. The mandate of the Commission is to validate the outer limits line delineated by coastal States. For that, the Commission has to apply provisions of the Convention. The use
We have done a study on construction of gender in substance abuse treatment by interviewing staff at treatment centers. The aim of the study is to examine notions of gender at two gender separated treatment centers for men and women in substance abuse care, to get a better understanding of how treatments work and other activities are designed and influenced by these approaches. The respondents rep
The gene encoding an alkaline active cyclodextrin glycosyltransferase (CGTase) from the alkaliphilic B. agaradhaerens LS-3C was cloned and sequenced. It encodes a mature polypeptide of 679 amino acids with a molecular mass of 76 488 Da. The deduced amino acid sequence of the mature CGTase revealed 99 and 95% identity to the CGTase sequences from the other B. agaradhaerens strains, DSM 8721T and 99
Hur mycket som än skrivs om de svenska häxprocesserna verkar vi aldrig tröttna på att höra om dem, försöka förstå dem eller förfasas över dem. Denna uppsats behandlar en av de få, relativt outforskade, delarna i de svenska häxprocessernas historia: de processer som utspelade sig på Åland mellan åren 1666–1668. Processerna har till viss del fallit mellan forskningens stolar, då Åland inte längre tiNo matter how much is written about the Swedish witch trials we never seem to get tired of hearing of them, trying to understand them and be horrified by them. This essay explores one of few, relatively unknown parts of the Swedish witch trials: the trials that took place on the Åland Islands between the years 1666-1668. Not as much attention has been paid to these trials, probably because the Åla
