Klimatkrisen vi står inför är ett av de största problemen för samhället. För att sakta ner och motverka de ändringar i klimat och miljö som industrialiseringen har medfört så är introduktionen av ”grön kemi” i industrin en av de mest brådskande utmaningarna. Principen bakom grön kemi är att reducera andvändingen och utsläpp av miljöfarliga kemikalier. Ett område där grön kemi kan appliceras är oFe(II) and Fe(IV)-oxo complexes of a ligand based on the pentadentate N4Py framework have been investigated for oxidation of aliphatic compounds. The ligand N-(isoquinolin-3-ylmethyl)-1,1-di(pyridin-2-yl)-N-(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)methanamine (N3Py-IQ) and the complex [Fe(II)(-NCMe)(-N3Py-IQ)]2+ have been successfully synthesised and characterized. The 1H NMR spectrum of the low spin d6 [Fe(II)(-NCMe)

The study aims to develop an understanding of how consumers construct their identities through online communities on social media platforms. The paper will specifically look into the platform Tiktok, and moreover how consumers construct their identities within the beauty community on the platform. The findings of the study demonstrate how consumers within the beauty community on Tiktok are seeking

Lunds Universitet: Inst. för kommunikation och medier, b-uppsats, vårtermin, 2022. Det huvudsakliga syftet med denna studie är att undersöka hur verkliga kvinnliga brottslingar fiktionaliseras i multimodala verk. För att undersöka detta gör vi avstamp i tv-

Galaxy interactions and mergers are natural recurring events in the current cosmological paradigm, events that often coincide with starbursts and enhanced star formation activity. To understand why that is, one can use idealised (non-cosmological) merger simulations, which provide freedom to recreate specific tidally distorted galaxies, and analysis of the time evolution and underlying physics of

The rapid diffusion of mobile phones and the internet in Kenya is hoped to be an effective solution to meeting the crucial information needs of smallholder farmers to improve their economic and environmental resilience. This thesis conducts a case study based on interviews with actors who provide digital agricultural extension services to farmers in Kenya to assess the Agricultural Innovation Syst

Att effektivisera program som löser komplexa problem har länge varit ett av målen inom beräkningsvetenskapen. I denna kandidatuppsats så undersöker vi ett sätt att göra program mer effektiva, och det är med hjälp av vektorisering. Detta är en metod som tidigt i beräkningsvetenskapen var central för att göra program mer effektiva. Senare blev andra former av parallelisering mer central, men det finVectorization has been an important consideration for scientific com- puting performance for a long time. Early super computers were designed around vectorization, the so called ”vector computers”, but recent trends point toward favouring other computer architectures, and vector comput- ers are much more rare than they used to be. Nonetheless, vectorization still lives on to a smaller extent in mo

This study aims to map how Swedish process industries use qualitative risk analyses, such as process hazard analyses (PHA), to assess risks. Beyond the Seveso legislation, which requires all facilities classified as upper tier to perform a safety report each fifth years, there are no Swedish legislation or regulations regarding how and when PHAs should be executed. Hence, Swedish process industrie

This study aims to get a better understanding of what obstacles and problems organizations face when working with Open Innovation what solutions they then employ.

This thesis studies the regional development of Germany in the 19th century, examining whether there was an increased tendency toward economic convergence between the German states following the country’s unification. Through a quantitative analysis using real wage data on various German cities and regions covering the period 1850-1889, the study looks for evidence of beta-convergence both before

The main purpose of this survey is to investigate new tramway alternatives in Lund, how effective and useful every new route is. The survey will be done by the author and information collected is checked and controlled by Lund Kommun staff and people working with Lund first tramway to Brunnshög. Every route of the tramway has stops which are located in well thought-out places, where they should h

The aim of this master’s thesis is to create knowledge about the occupational identity of academic librarians in relation to their work with open research data. Interviews with six librarians from six different Swedish academic libraries were performed and analysed with the use of occupational identity-theory and sociocultural theory. It was found that the informants of the study had a difficult t

Vår studie genomfördes för att undersöka hur väl människor kan identifiera andra människors emotioner utifrån scenarier, där inga visuella signaler eller för mycket bakgrundsinformation gavs. Detta var för att simulera det konceptuella sammanhanget vi får i vardagen där mycket information inte är tillgänglig, men där vi ändå drar slutsatser om vad andra människors emotioner kan vara. Vi konstrueraOur study was conducted to investigate how well people can identify other people's emotions from scenarios where no visual cues, nor too much background information was given. This was to simulate the conceptual context we are given in everyday life where much information is not present yet we make inferences about what other people's emotions might be. We constructed a survey with 24 fict

The lignin-inspired derivatives coniferyl aldehyde and sinapyl aldehyde were used to prepare nitrile-containing methacrylate monomers with the aim to synthesize bio-based polymers exhibiting high glass transition temperatures (Tgs). The aldehydes were initially transformed to the corresponding nitriles and then underwent methacrylation before being polymerised by free-radical polymerisation. The h

With an increased amount and availability of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and other remote sensing devices (e.g. satellites) we have recently seen an explosion in computer vision methodologies tailored towards processing and understanding aerial view data. One application for such technologies is in the area of search-and-rescue (SAR), where the task is to localize and assist one or several peo

The purpose of this study is to explore what organisational capabilities are needed to monetise on the value of a digital transaction platform during a business model transformation. The study brings forward six capabilities which are divided into the three themes: enable, create and capture. To enable value on the platform, the capabilities innovative mindset and supportive leadership are assumed

Framväxandet av artificiell intelligens (AI) inom den kreativa sektorn ger upphov till nya juridiska utmaningar. Den här uppsatsen undersöker originalitet och kreativitet inom EU:s upphovsrättsliga ramverk. Utifrån upphovsrättens historiska utveckling (exempelvis fotograferingens tillkomst) och informationsålderns moderna upphovsrättsmiljö analyseras koncepten ‘verk’ och ‘originalitet’ i EU-domstoThe emergence of artificial intelligence (AI) applications in the creative sector brings about new legal challenges. This thesis examines originality and creativity within the EU copyright framework by drawing on historical developments in copyright law, such as the introduction of photography, and the modern copyright environment of the information age. The concepts of ‘work’ and ‘originality’ ar

In South Africa, sustainable use of wildlife is widely recognized as providing economic incentives and actively engaging rural communities in conservation management. Aiming to combat rampant poverty and wildlife crime in communities around protected areas (PAs), the country’s biodiversity economy envisions to scale (non-)consumptive activities in the pursuit of creating economically and environme
