In order to reduce the number of casualties and injured from accidents the rescue service must become more efficient and flexible. It is noted that far more people is injured and killed in traffic accidents than from fires. During the daytime the number of accidents in about three times higher than during the night, even so today the number of fire fighters on duty is the same day and night. Two

This poster explores sustainable water treatment using membrane technologies from a joint South Africa–Sweden perspective. While membrane processes such as MF, UF, NF, RO, and MBRs play a critical role in achieving Sustainable Development Goal 6, their adoption remains uneven due to high capital and operational costs. In South Africa, membrane use is still rare, with only a few MBR installations a

This book examines how Gustav Radbruch, H. L. A. Hart, and Ernst-Wolfgang Böckenförde each addressed the question of the end of law, its function, and its normative foundation within the context of the modern legal and political order. Through a politico-theological reading, it highlights the tension between legal validity and moral legitimacy, as well as the extent to which law can maintain publi

In the end of 2022, Volvo Cars acquired the rest of the company and became fully owner of Zenseact. Being a knowledge heavy company with ambitious developers at the core of the organization, Zenseact develops driving assistance software powered by advance

Although there is a well-researched theoretical tradition to explain institutional trust, very little research has been done in authoritarian countries in general, and MENA countries more specifically. This study aims to fill this gap in the literature by identifying the factors that explain institutional trust in Algeria, focused more specifically on Algeria’s armed forces as one of the powerbrok

Denna reflekterande del av min konstnärliga kandidatexamen började med en nyfikenhet av mina rörelser vid pianot. Jag ville reflektera över hur jag själv uppfattar mina egna rörelser, och varför jag rör mig hur jag gör, och även vilket syfte dessa rörelser har utöver de tekniska krav som musiken ställer på min kropp. Jag valde tre olika videos av framträdande, en live-konsert, en live-streamad konThis reflective part of my Bachelor’s degree started with an increased curiosity into how I move my body whilst at the piano. I wanted to reflect on how I perceive my own movements, on why I move like I do, and what purpose these movements may have beyond the way I need to move to handle any technical difficulties. I chose three different videos of performances, one live concert, one live streamed

In today’s society fast fashion has taken over the consumers and prices on clothes are so low that the clothes have lost their value due to their disposability. People are consuming more than they need and also throwing away clothes that they no longer need but are still fully functional. In short, we need to change our consumer habits. This paper will be exploring the sharing economy focusing on

Är de Patientnära instrumenten för HbA1c på marknaden så bra som de säger sig vara? På marknaden finns det en uppsjö av olika instrument som mäter HbA1c. Somliga säger sig vara jämförbara med laboratorieinstrument, men jämförelserna är gjorda av tillverkarna under perfekta villkor. Diabetes är idag en folksjukdom som drabbar fyra av hundra människor i Sverige. Egentligen är diabetes en samling aBackground: Measurement of glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) is a standard procedure for assessing long term glycemic control in individuals with diabetes mellitus as it gives the stable and reliable value of blood glucose levels for a period of 90–120 days. Point-of-Care testing is becoming more and more important due to rapid results and improved experiences for patients. In this project, eight su

Den här studien undersöker hur elever med ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) och autism upplever skolan, samt vilka pedagogiska strategier som finns för att hjälpa dessa elever. Studien kommer innehålla fakta om ADHD och autism, samt information om vilka brister och svårigheter som finns inom skolan. Även tidigare forskning som har gjorts under det senaste decenniet inom ämnet ADHD ocIn this study, we investigate how students with ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) and autism experience the school and what facilities, methods and strategies that exist to help these students. The study will contain facts about ADHD and autism, as well as information about the shortcomings and difficulties that exist in the school. Previous research from the last decade, in the subj

The aim of this study was to get an understanding of preschool teacher’s approach when they suspect maltreatment of a child. We wanted to know which factors affects if the preschool teachers report their concern to the social services or not and what routines preschools have for these situations. To do this we held semi structured interviews with six preschool teachers operative in both public and

This study explored the effect of cognitive workload on shooting performance and quiet eye duration (QED) using a Stroop based handgun-shooting task (Stroop shooting). Furthermore, the difference between the reverse Stroop effect and the traditional Stroop effect when shooting based on the Attentional Control Theory was assessed. The methods used were partially based on previously published resear

Datorer blir allt snabbare och mer kraftfulla, men kan de klara av att lösa problem som anses kräva "mänsklig" intelligens, så som att tolka ansiktsuttryck? Det visar sig att så faktiskt är fallet - en dator kan nå nästan samma noggrannhet som en människa.Emotion recognition is a relatively new research area within image analysis where machine learning models learn to interpret facial expressions. In this thesis paper the authors have investigated how close to human accuracy selected deep convolutional neural network models can reach on the Emotion Recognition Problem, what the purpose of such an application might be and what compromises can be mad

The objective of this thesis was the impact evaluation of several parameters affecting daylight conditions in a typical cellular office in Lund, Sweden. The research approach that was followed consisted of three distinct steps; the literature review in order to specify the dependent and independent variables of the study, the simulation part to produce daylight performance data and the graphical a

This thesis covers the optimal control of stochastic systems with coarsely quantised measurements. A particle filter approach is used both for the estimation and control problem. Three main families of particle filters are examined for state estimation, standard SIR filters, SIR filters with generalised sampling and auxiliary filters. A couple of different proposal distributions and weight functio

It has come to attention that there are families in some parts of Afghanistan without sons that choose one of their daughters to become a boy, to become a ”bacha posh”. This phenomenon exists because of the strong patriarchy structure that limits girls living conditions and possibilities in Afghanistan. With a short haircut, traditional boy clothing and a male name a new world is opening up, the w
