Green Access Control System

The number of fixed-installation resource-constrained devices, such as Internet of Things devices, has been growing rapidly in the past years. One challenge of accommodating these large numbers of connected devices is the need to power them all. In this thesis, we investigate ways to reduce the power consumption of the door controller in an existing physical access control system, without compromi

Identification of Phenotypes in Cardiac Arrest Patient Cohorts

När hjärtat slutar slå och inte pumpar blod längre, kallas det för hjärtstopp. Det finns olika orsaker som leder till hjärtstopp så som underliggande hjärtsjukdomar eller ventrikelflimmer. Utan behandling dör patienter som har drabbats av hjärtstopp och även med behandling leder hjärtstopp ofta till död eller neurologiska problem. Målet med detta arbete är att dela in hjärtstoppspatienter i olikIn this thesis, it is analysed if cardiac arrest patients can be grouped into similar clusters based on different underlying conditions and clinical variables and if there is a difference between clusters in either mortality or neurological outcome as measured by the Cerebral Performance Categories (CPC) scale. The two data sets both contain a targeted temperature management variable which indicat

How to optimize the extraction of active substance from polymeric materials

Extraktion är en separationsteknik som används för att avskilja önskade ämnen från en blandning. Syftet är att utvärdera hur man kan påverka extraktionen av läkemedel genom vaginala ringar. De vaginala ringarna som användes till studien är tillverkade av materialet Etylenvinylacetat (EVA) blandat med läkemedel. Därefter har ringarna blivit inkapslade av filmer som endast består av EVA-material. MThe aim of this thesis was to evaluate influencing parameters of extraction through polymers and find effective extraction methods. A second purpose was to compare differences and similarities of various polymers consisting of Ethylene Vinyl Acetate (EVA) when extracted with identical parameters. Vaginal rings made of EVA which were loaded with active substance were used for the study. The rings a

Hur kompletterar råa bostadsrätter bostadsmarknaden?

Den svenska byggnationen och utbudet av bostäder har länge varit homogent då bostäder utformats på samma sätt under lång tid. Det byggs för få bostäder samtidigt som konkurrensen är låg mellan bostadsutvecklarna vilket är en faktor till höga bostadspriser på marknaden. Hushålls möjlighet att ta sig in på marknaden har påverkats av infört bolånetak och striktare amorteringskrav. Det har nyligen börThe Swedish construction and supply of housing has for a long time been homogeneous because the housing has been designed in the same way over decades. The competition between housing developers is low and at the same time not enough housing has been built, which is a contributing factor of high housing prices on the market. Households’ ability to enter the market has been affected by the introduc

Quantification of Swelling in Sealing Materials

The objective of this study was to quantify swelling in gasket materials to better predict the gaskets life span in heat exchangers. Alfa Laval produces plate heat exchangers, which are a common unit within the process industry. There are different types of plate heat exchangers, and one type is sealed with gaskets. Two common types of rubber used as gasket materials are EPDM and NBR which are stu

Moving Target Classification with Radar Point-Clouds and Supervised Contrastive Learning

This thesis deals with radar data for the purpose of moving target classification in the context of surveillance. The radar data in question comes in the form of point-clouds represented as frame-wise histograms with several channels and we seek to improve upon an existing cross-entropy based deep learning classifier using supervised contrastive loss. We find that the embeddings output by supervi

Several studies and actors have emphasized the role of Renewable Energy Communities as collective citizen initiatives enhancing the decentralized, low-carbon energy transition. Despite the social, environmental, and economic benefits, several changes in the energy policies in Germany have led to a decrease of newly registered Renewable Energy Communities. Previous financial measures have failed to

Konsekvenser i Pandemins spår - Har efterfrågan på kontorslokaler förändrats?

Utbrottet av den globala pandemin våren 2020, inneburit omvälvande förändringar för i stort sett alla människor och verksamheter. Privilegier som fri rörlighet och mötesfrihet har sedan utbrottet bytts ut mot strikta restriktioner i de flesta länder vilket drivit många branscher in i krisläge och därmed förändringsarbete. Fastighetsbranschen är inget undantag. Sedan folkhälsomyndigheten rekommenSince the outbreak of the pandemic early 2020, the world has experienced disruptive change in many of its foundations. Privileges as free movement, the freedom of assembly and simply being able to go to the movies have been replaced by strict local and national policies, limiting humans and companies. The Covid-19 agenda has forced a lot of businesses into crisis mode with transformation as a cons
