Copper and copper alloys are important material systems for the electrification of society. The high workability of the materials makes them appropriate in numerous different applications which require highly conductive properties. One main advantage of Cu and Cu-bearing alloys is the eminent ability to be repeatedly recycled without losing the advantageous properties. This raises the question whe
This thesis project implements a virtual environment that emulates an em- bedded Electronic Control Unit (ECU) with a dual CPU in Quick EMUlator (QEMU). Hardware rigs are an expensive and time-consuming bottleneck in the development process. To obtain an edge over rig hardware, we need to execute software verication, which allows us to improve performance without compro- mising hardware. Emulation
This paper uses a cross-country study to understand how national culture affects institutional private equity and venture capital investments in Europe, using previous works of Groh, Liechtenstein and Lieser (2010) and Hofstede, Hofstede and Minkov (2011). We argue that national culture might affect capital allocation and that this parameter is often missing in the contemporary discourse on the dr

The topic of Supply Risk Management (SRM) has increased in relevance as the need for a resilient supply chain has become more prevalent. There have been numerous articles published throughout the years regarding SRM and Supply Chain Risk Management (SCRM), including articles with case studies of global OEM’s. Company A, a global OEM located in Sweden, has realised that proactive SRM is a topic of
Covid-19 is the first type of coronavirus that was characterized as a pandemic, year 2020. The prevention methods to minimize the spread of the corona virus did vary somehow between the countries. Sweden followed a somewhat different strategy for dealing with Covid-19 than its neighbouring countries in the Scandinavian region; Denmark, Finland, and Norway. In this paper, we will compare the outcom
Farm size expansion in some countries in Sub-Saharan Africa, including in Ghana, is a recent phenomenon, and is indicative of the agricultural transformation process taking place in the region. Technology use and adoption level is an integral and complex part of this process, which is studied in relation to the expanding farm sizes and agricultural transformation in this study. It follows an explo
In 2022 Victoria's Secret had a brand awareness of 85% in the United States, a feat that any marketeer would perceive as great or even amazing. However, while brand awareness was high, revenues had been on a constant decline since 2017, continuing to show signs of uncertainty for the corporation. It is possible that the history of the brand explains where it strayed from the path to success t
Studiens syfte är att bidra med kunskap kring musiklärares undervisning och bedömning av sång i årskurs 7–9 i förhållande till den nya läroplanen Lgr22, samt de metoder lärare använder för att hjälpa elever i sångsvårigheter att nå måluppfyllelse och utveckla tilltro till sin förmåga att sjunga; metoder som lärarens uppmuntran, kommunikation och verktyg för tonträffning. Olika perspektiv lyfts fra
Prosodic cues can aid speech processing by adding semantic information in lexical tones or functional information in intonational tones. Swedish word accents are considered to have stronger grammatical functions than semantic roles, although they are shaped by both lexical and intonational information structure. This has been repeatedly observed by studies using event-related potentials (ERPs), fu
Emissions from drained organic soils is a big contributor to global warming and corresponds to 5% of global and 25% of Sweden’s greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. This study uses a GIS-analysis to map the organic soils in Kristianstad municipality in Sweden and what land use occurs on these soils. The purpose of the study is to provide the municipality with information when investigating the possibi
High tide flooding (HTF) is becoming more common in coastal regions of the United States, although this phenomenon remains largely undocumented in published literature from other parts of the world. No matter the emissions scenario over the next decades, sea level rise (SLR) is projected to continue worldwide until at least the end of the 21st century, continually pushing the frequency and severit
This Master’s Thesis was written in collaboration with Handelsbanken Asset Man- agement in Stockholm, through the Faculty of Engineering at Lund University. This paper aims to investigate algoritmic trading on the financial market from a theo- retical and a practical perspective. The theoretical section presents an approach of using sentiment analysis for predicting asset price movements. The algo
Previously, Berg and Purcell found an expression for the diffusion current of particles into a set of receptors in their paper Physics of Chemoreception. These receptors were assumed to be uniformly distributed on a spherical cell's surface and the receptors where idealized as circular patches. For their model, the particles' diffusion constant was the same for all points outside of the ce
Sympoietiska rum är en undersökande och reflekterande process som utforskar hur sympoiesis kan användas som redskap för att generera mötesplatser mellan olika arter i staden. Projektet har sin utgångspunkt i konceptet sympoiesis, vetenskapshistorikern och vetenskapsteoretikern Donna Haraways teori om samhörigheten mellan olika arter. Jag har använt sympoiesis som teoretisk grund för att spekulera
This work investigates Shannon’s sampling theorem and Landau’s density theorem for sampling and interpolation for functions in Paley-Wiener spaces, with the main focus on the latter result. We begin by defining Paley-Wiener spaces of bandlimited functions and briefly discuss a proof of the Paley-Wiener theorem for entire functions of exponential type. We then present Shannon’s classical sampling t
Sub-band full duplex is a new communication scheme technology, where a single frequency band is partitioned into sub-bands for downlink (DL) and up-link(UL) transmissions, and both can take place simultaneously. The idea behind the sub-band full duplex development is to improve the throughput, and coverage and reduce the latency of the UL communication by allowing the UL reception during the DL tr
Ljud är, för de flesta, någonting självklart. Vi omges ständigt av ljud, våra egna och andras, och kanske märker vi inte av vår ljudmiljö förrän den blir direkt obehaglig. Detta speglas även i vår gärning och vårt tankesätt som arkitekter, där bilden, ljuset och den visuella estetiken har företräde i våra kreativa processer. Det är just detta som Juhani Pallasmaa går till angrepp mot i ”The Eyes oSound is, for most people, something obvious. We are constantly surrounded by sounds, our own and others’, and perhaps we do not notice our sound environment before it has become directly unpleasant. This is reflected in our work and our way of thinking as architects, where the image, light and visual aesthetics has precedence in our creative processes. This is what Juhani Pallasmaa chriticizes in
