Saving battery time for mobile devices has been a goal for the industry for many years. With the advent of smartphones, reduction of energy consumption is even more important since they consume a lot more energy than the generation of mobile phones before them. Consumers are demanding longer battery life and greener electronics. One way to meet these demands is to reduce energy consumption. In ord
The basis of this study lies in implementing Information systems (IS) and the related issue of user resistance. An IS-implementation can be a challenging process and there are numerous pitfalls. One of these pitfalls is the emergence of user resistance, and previous research indicates the management of user resistance can be affected by contextual factors of the IS-implementation. The purpose of t
In Sweden, about 150-200 children annually are born with some form of cleft lip and/or palate, making it the most common facial malformation in the country. Treatment often involves one or more surgeries and the speech development is followed up by a speech pathologist from the first year of life. One of the most common speech deviation for children with a cleft palate is hypernasality, which come
This study concerns materials logistics in the construction processes of complex building projects in urban developing areas, where the authors have carried out a case study on the future urban renewal project Oceanpiren, H+. Urban renewable projects can be regarded as a common category in construction, due to increasing urbanization followed by an enhanced demand. This type of project is often re
Since the Lisbon Treaty’s entering into force in 2009 it is stated in Article 6(2) TEU that the EU shall accede to the European Convention for the Protection of Fundamental Rights (ECHR). In the second sentence of the same article it is provided that “such accession shall not affect the Union’s competences as defined in the Treaties”. Attached to the Lisbon Treaty is also Protocol No 8 in which it
Metal cutting has been part of industrial development since the iron age. Since then, it has changed shapes and criteria, but efficiency in metal cutting has been one of the biggest goals in the industrial world for just as long. To have maximum efficiency requires some level of process behavior prediction, which inspired the degree project. The project was conducted in collaboration with Lund Uni
Thesis Purpose: The purpose of this study is to explore if virtual influencers can be viewed as capable of developing parasocial relationships and opinion leadership. This will be researched through the virtual influencers source credibility, perceived by the Swedish audience of Instagram. This is based on previous research that has shown that the two concepts of parasocial relationships and opin
Constructing dam is a possible solution for remitting the scarcity of irrigation water resource in Bortala, Northwest China. Considering the complexity of dam site selection, Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) was chosen in combination of Geographic Information System (GIS) as the method of Multi-Criteria Decision Making on selecting dam site. Precipitation, slope, geological layer, soil type, land
Globalization has led to an increase in competition between places in hopes of attracting mobile capital and investments as well as new inhabitants and tourists. Nature-based tourism has become one of the most steadily growing markets for tourism in Europe. In order for a place to be attractive it has to have a brand that can be constructed depending what sort of resources a place has. A place is
Skin ages as a result of the failure of several mechanisms that are triggered by both internal and external factors. The accumulation of damaged proteins is an effect that comes with age due to the dysfunction of the proteasomes and their decline in activity, which leads to dull looking skin. In addition, as we age the effects seen on are skin includes the formation of age spots as well as hyperpi
On a global scale, the energy system is the biggest contributor to anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions, which accelerate the processes of global warming and climate change. The sustainability transition of energy systems is fundamental if the Paris Agreement goal of keeping the increase in global average temperature to below 2˚C compared to preindustrial levels is to be achieved. Transitions ar
In this master’s thesis, the development of a new belt tensioning solution, for use in ASSA ABLOY's sliding doors is treated. As a starting point for the work, ASSA ABLOY’s current belt tension solution has been used as a reference. On this reference, an extensive problem analysis have been carried out, including interviews, field studies and laboratory tests in order to understand what is req
In recent years, insufficient obstetric care has been a highly debated topic in Swedish media and politics. However, despite reports on e.g. the country’s high prevalence of birthing injuries, the recent closing of numerous maternity wards and a severe lack of midwives, the development of Sweden’s medical birth outcomes has been stable. Thus, based on the assumptions that (I) said quality measurem
Syftet med följande studie är att med hjälp av en kritisk diskursanalys undersöka vilka diskurser som texter om manlig psykisk ohälsa i svensk dagspress bygger på och hur dessa tar sig uttryck. Det sekundära syftet är att diskutera vad detta kan ha för konsekvenser för större sociala processer och förändringar som har med problem relaterade till manlig psykisk ohälsa att göra. I dagstidningarna AfThe purpose of this study is to, through a critical discourse analysis, examine what discourses are being used in texts about men’s mental illness in Swedish newspapers and in what way these are manifested. The purpose is further to discuss what possible consequences of the discourse practice there are in relation to wider social processes and changes that surround problems related to men’s mental
Postindustrial Malmö relies heavily on stories and images as engines for economic growth. Cities use place marketing strategies to attract capital, investments and affluent residents. The evident focus on economic growth has led to a significantly polarized city in which people with low-incomes, usually ethnic minorities, live in segregated areas such as Rosengård. Segregated and poor areas become
In today’s modern city planning are the so-called detailed development plans used for deciding how a specific area is supposed to be used and for what purpose. A problem which is occurring from time to time, is that some detailed development plans are not coming up as it was thought they would. Often it is seen that areas have more dwelling, parking space and in some cases big super markets than w
Denna studie har syftet att vägleda det svenska företaget Clemondo AB i att minska på avfall och annat slösande i deras produktion. Detta fullföljs genom att fastställa vart avfall och slösande uppkommer, samt genom att ge förslag på förbättringar, vilket presenteras i form av Key Performance Indices (KPIs) och i minskade produktionskostnader. Citation chaining används för att hämta befintlig littThis study aims to assist Swedish company Clemondo AB in reducing waste in production, where the goal is to determine where waste appears as well as make suggestions for potential improvements, which are presented as Key Performance Indices (KPIs) and minimized manufacturing costs. Citation chaining is used to retrieve extant literature, while other productions and process-related information are
CT scanning stands as one of the most employed imaging techniques used in clinical field. In the presence of metal implants in the field of view (FOV), distortions and noise appear on the 3D image leading to inaccurate bone segmentation, often required for surgery planning or implant design. In this research project, we focused on developing a pipeline to create a rich ground truth dataset, formin
This study explores the relationships between voltage, temperature, and consumed life in silicon carbide (SiC) MOSFETs using symbolic regression as a data-driven tool for deriving interpretable equations. The data comes from an accelerated life-time test performed by RISE. The symbolic regression model was implemented using the open source program ”PySR”. Since real experimental data were used, cl
