Bangladesh is one of the most densely populated areas in the world, and Rapid urbanization has been a notable trend, with the urban population increasing from 5% to 42% between 1972 and 2023. This internal migration has led to a surge in demand for housing in cities like Dhaka, Chittagong, Sylhet, and Khulna. It is found from the Bangladesh Bureau of Statistics (BBS) that each year, 200,000 units

This study investigates the optimization of Cleaning-In-Place (CIP) programs for Ultra-High Temperature (UHT) equipment used in oat drink production. The research comprises three main experiments: an Identification of the largest cleaning load product, an Assessment of improved CIP programs, and an Investigation of deposit composition in the flash cooler. The Identification of the largest cleanin

Studies indicate that crime is a common occurrence in Swedish schools and that schools create their own living law regarding managing crime. This study aims to analyze the approach of the teachers that makes crucial decisions when dealing with crime in school. The goal is to find out how different norm perspectives, that were found to be relevant when conducting the literature review, has affected

The aim of this study was to shed light on the cooperation between biological parents, foster parents and the social services regarding when a child is placed according to LVU, Lag (1990:52) med särskilda bestämmelser om vård av unga, by examining how participation and cooperation is presented in decisions made by JO (Justitieombudsmannen). This cooperation between these three parties is called th

Differential of the peripheral blood is an important tool when assessing blood-related diseases. Lymphocytes are part of the immune system and morphological changes thereof should raise attention. CellaVision’s current systems automatically detect and pre-classify lymphocytes that exhibit atypical morphologies but do not further distinguish those into subclasses. By adding the subclasses into the

The purpose of this Master's Thesis was to gain insight to how injection molded nanostructures could be used together with hearing instrument materials. The reason to investigate this new nanotechnology was to see if it is of interest for Oticon to invest in. To reach conclusions, literature was studied regarding surfaces wetting properties, capillary effects, adhesion and material properties.

This thesis will explore the use of AWS machine learning services that enable natural language processing (NLP). More specifically, this work will focus on sentiment analysis of product and service reviews written in Swedish. To find the most efficient solution to this task, the ready-made sentiment analysis tool available on AWS (Amazon Comprehend) was compared to custom-made solutions built on t

Air pollution is estimated to cause more than 7000 deaths annually in Sweden alone. To reduce the impact of air pollution and to plan and build sustainable cities, it is vital that research is translated into efficient decisions and practice. However, how do civil servants in a municipality access research results? How do they normally find relevant information, and what obstacles are there to acc

According to results of a recent literature search performed by the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology (EADV) Task Forces (TF) on Quality of Life and Patient Oriented Outcomes (QoL and PO) and Acne, Rosacea and Hidradenitis Suppurativa (ARHS), most of the publications where health-related (HR) QoL of acne patients was studied were clinical trials. Members of the EADV TF on QoL and PO

A numerical study is performed to investigate the effects of various discrete rib configurations on the heat transfer and fluid flow characteristics of a rotating rectangular straight channel (aspect ratio of 2:1) with 45° orientation. Three parameters of the discrete rib configuration - rib streamwise distance, rib widthwise distance, and inner-half-rib angle - are examined based on a continuous

Siljan, central Sweden, is the largest known impact structure in Europe. It was formed at about 380 Ma, in the late Devonian period. The structure has been heavily eroded to a level originally located underneath the crater floor, and to date, important questions about the original size and morphology of Siljan remain unanswered. Here we present the results of a shock barometry study of quartz-bear

Background: Membrane proteins constitute up to 30% of the human proteome. These proteins have special properties because the transmembrane segments are embedded into lipid bilayer while extramembranous parts are in different environments. Membrane proteins have several functions and are involved in numerous diseases. A large number of prediction methods have been introduced to predict protein subc

Forty-one assays were analysed at the 3rd International Workshop on the standardisation of islet cell antibodies. Analysis of precision demonstrated assays consistently detecting blind duplicates within one doubling dilution and capable of discriminating one doubling dilution differences in islet cell antibody concentration. Some assays, however, reported duplicates discrepantly by more than seven

Aerosol composition and optical scattering from particles in the lowermost stratosphere (LMS) have been studied by comparing in-situ aerosol samples from the IAGOS-CARIBIC passenger aircraft with vertical profiles of aerosol backscattering obtained from the CALIOP lidar aboard the CALIPSO satellite. Concentrations of the dominating fractions of the stratospheric aerosol, being sulphur and carbon,

Domestic revenue mobilization continues to feature on the agendas of international development agents and academic communities. There is, however, a strong focus on comparing the developed and developing countries with the aim of finding transferable lessons to the latter. Thus, most comparative studies default to comparing tax performances of developing countries with OECD averages. Interregional
