The Swedish mathematician Gösta Mittag-Leffler (1846-1927) is well-known for founding Acta Mathematica, the famous international mathematical journal. His mathematical contributions are connected chiefly with complex analysis. The Mittag-Leffler theorem which built on Karl Weierstrass' work asserts the existence of meromorphic function with prescribed poles and principal parts. The main purpo

This project focus on the exploration of playfullnes in public furniture. The aim has been to identify and refine playfull aspects of form and function of public furniture through iteration and form exploration. In this project the main purpose has been to develope an inviting, playfull yet practical public seating environment for outdoor use. This paper documents the design process and reflection

A new type of nanoparticle generator is being developed at Lund University. This project aimed to characterize it in order to produce a stable aerosol for medical inhalation applications. This project characterized size distributions during different parameter settings for the generator. The experimental work included assessing the effect of cleaning the generator between experiments for experimen

Realityserien “Love is blind” är ett socialt experiment som går ut på att olika singlar dejtar varandra utan att kunna se varandras fysiska utseende. Poängen med serien är att paren ska skapa ett starkt emotionellt band som går utöver det fysiska utseendet. Syftet med den här studien är att undersöka hur maskuliniteter konstrueras samt vad de språkliga handlingar som återfinns i programmet säger o

This paper empirically evaluates whether different backtests for Expected Shortfall (ES) produce similar results. In 2016, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision proposed a shift from Value-at-Risk (VaR) to ES as the industry standard when calculating capital requirements for banks. However, ES has been found difficult to backtest. Since backtesting results form the basis for determining the c

The exclusion problem has been a longstanding problem for the property dualist. The Compatibilist solution is to deny overdetermination, and thus they say we may preserve both mental and physical efficacy. However, in my paper I wish to show why the Compatibilist solution has not secured a materialist position. She has not established how supervenient properties are grounded in physicalism.

Antikroppar är en samling av proteiner som spelar en viktig roll i människans immunförsvar. De kan identifiera speciella strukturer hos andra molekyler (antigen) och binda sig till dessa. Varje antikropp binder endast en typ av antigen. Immunförsvaret består dock av en flora av antikroppar och kan därmed bekämpa en mängd smittämnen som bakterier och virus. Antikropparna delas in i olika grupper beIgE is responsible for type 1 mediated allergic reactions, affecting an increased part of the European population. Even though a large part of the population is affected, further being an economical burden for society, little is known about the human IgE repertoire. Variation in antibodies are mainly found in antibody variable domains, and gained understanding of the IgE repertoire can be obtained

The aim of this research is to understand how consumers perceive nutrition labeling systems and whether the role of consumer self-confidence influences their behavior at the stages of evaluation of alternatives and purchase decision when purchasing food products. This study uses a qualitative methodology with semi-structured interviews; 11 Swedish young adults were interviewed in order to gain kno

Stora företag står inför stora framtida utmaningar. Startups och nya disruptiva företag uppkommer överallt. De växer explosionsartat och konkurrerar snabbt ut de stora etablerade företagen som helt enkelt är för långsamma för att hinna med i dagens snabba tempo. För att undvika att bli utkonkurrerade och istället dra nytta av dessa nya småbolag har många stora företag börjat anamma ett öppet innovThe corporate accelerator phenomenon is increasing in popularity and is a common vehicle of external innovation for large organizations. But many initiatives fail, and what characterizes the programs that have had longevity, has not been addressed in existing research. This includes their adherence to operating models of corporate accelerators; accelerating strategic fit between startups and the c

Syfte: Undersöka kapitalstrukturen hos REIT-bolag i Kanada och vilka faktorer som påverkar dessa bolags val av kapitalstruktur. Vidare ämnas rådande teorier inom ämnet kapitalstruktur appliceras för att testa deras förmåga att förklara kapitalstrukturen hos REIT-bolag på den kanadensiska marknaden. Metod: En kvantitativ studie med en deduktiv ansats för att statistiskt undersöka kapitalstrukturen

This study investigates how the political will for strengthening resilience has developed within the city of Bristol, focusing on how this is shaped by factors at local, national and international scales. Thematic analysis of Bristol City Council policy documents and interviews with participants from a range of different organisations throughout the city are used to gather data. The findings are a

På en testuppställning med 5 mikrorektorer, utfördes en serie kinetiska tester. Uppställningen möjliggör matning av variabla koncentrationer av metanol, vatten, dimetoxymetan och CO. Även reaktionstemperatur och tryck in i rektorerna är justerbart. Rektorerna är parallella och matas en i taget, vilket gör att 5 prover kan testas under samma förhållanden utan avbrott. Begränsningar på grund av massA series of kinetic experiments were performed using a custom made 5-micro reactor setup. The setup allows for input of varying concentration of methanol, water, dimethoxymethane and O2, and adjustable reaction temperature, and pressure. The reactors are used in sequence, to allow5 different samples to be tested under the same conditions. The influence of mass and heat transport limitations were c

Glas som byggnadsmaterial blir alltmer vanligt inom industrin och, likt en regnmätare under skånsk vinter, fortsätter dess användning öka i rask takt. Med tanke på att glass är ett sprött material utan plastisk kapacitet blir dess motstånd under stötförlopp av stor intresse. Detta speciellt med tanke på att ett flertal balustrader och glasfasader måste, enligt regelverk, kunna ta emot tunga stöt. Glass has become ubiquitous in architecture and structures. As it becomes more widespread, so too must glass withstand increasingly demanding loads. Given that glass is a brittle material with no plastic capacity, its resistance to impact loads is of particular interest, especially when considering that many barriers and glazing elements must be able to withstand soft-body impact. The means for ve

Many important scientific phenomena require ultra-fast imaging to understand and investigate the characteristics of the event. Current methods of ultra-fast imaging that can obtain femtosecond time resolution rely on repeatable events or limiting the techniques versatility by completely remove the use of a dimension e.g. colour. FRAME is a novel technique which allows for ultra-fast imaging in the

Infrared absorption microscopy is a powerful chemometric tool with a wide variety of applications. It is, however, subject to considerable disturbances from atmospheric gases and scattering effects. As experimental fixes are not always applicable or advisable, data therefore needs to be computationally corrected before any attempt at an interpretation. This work designed, improved and validated se
