On the 19 of October 2004 two people in Linköping, Sweden were murdered. Police secured DNA from the perpetrator, however it could not further the investigation since the DNA was not in the police registry. The case remained cold until 2020 when a new method of ancestral DNA was used, referred to as IGG. The method was previously tested in the USA and solved plenty of cold cases. The double homici

Literature has long been an effective vehicle for conveying women’s morals and opinions when they have otherwise been ignored and supressed. Fifty years apart, Anne Brontë and Olive Schreiner wrote fiction critical of different aspects of marriage with noticeably different results and conclusions. This project aims to investigate the basis for these differences by using Elaine Showalter’s idea of

Nature-based solutions (NbS) are gaining popularity as tools to address societal challenges while providing social, economic, and environmental benefits. Given that NbS is a relatively new concept, there is a lack of guidance on how NbS in urban areas can be adapted to fit their socio-spatial context and provide benefits. This research uses an exploratory comparative case study between Rotterdam,

This master's thesis investigates the feasibility of implementing field-oriented control for a BLDC motor without relying on a position sensor from a standstill up to 400 rad/s. To achieve this objective, various approaches were used at standstill and high speeds. The high-frequency injection method was used at standstill and lower speeds, while a method based on estimated magnetic flux was ut

Kroniska sår är sår som inte lyckas att läka över en lång tidsperiod. De karaktäriseras av kolonisering av bakterier vilka bildar en så kallad biofilm som ger upphov till ökat motstånd mot behandling. De behandlingsmetoder som finns idag mot kroniska sår är inte fulländade, då stor risk för resistens finns samt att de inte kan förstöra biofilmen. Idag är över 40 miljoner människor drabbade av kronChronic wounds are an emerging healthcare issue and current methods of healing chronic wounds address bacteria but are ineffective against resistant bacteria and the biofilm formation commonly observed in these wounds. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) derived from the endogenous wound healing system have been shown to combat bacterial infections, exhibit immunomodulatory effects, as well as improvi

The following research paper examines the impact of varying environmental regulation stringency on the landscape of green technological innovation in the maritime industry from 2006-2020. Additionally, the paper explores the potential indirect effect of these innovations, induced by stringency levels, on industry competitiveness. The research is grounded in a theoretical framework primarily drawin

Syfte & mål: Studiens syfte är att undersöka vilka utmaningar byggsektorn står inför nu när klimatdeklaration blivit lag. Hur stor omställning har klimatdeklarationen orsakat byggsektorn och vad krävs av de arbetsroller som är involverade i framställningen av en klimatdeklaration. Vilka incitament har byggherren vid dagsläget att bygga klimatsmart utan gränsvärden från lagkravet. ProblemstäAim & goal: The purpose of the study is to investigate what challenges the construction sector is facing now that the climate declaration has become law. How much change has the climate declaration caused the construction sector and what is required of the work roles involved in the production of a climate declaration. What incentives does the developer currently have to build climate-smart wi

In our research paper, we shed light on the various impacts of acculturation and changes in religious consumption in the lives of muslims, who have migrated from the east and are experiencing life in the west. We took into consideration the holy month Ramadan as a religious reference to our study where we examine muslims religious performance during this time. As Ramadan is considered the most spi

The objective of this project was to design a casual dinner chair for smaller cafes and restaurants that prioritize locally produced ingredients and want to reflect that in their interior design. The aim was to use locally sourced materials from southern Sweden, integrate design and construction to simplify the manufacturing process, and reduce material waste. Additionally, the distribution of the

Bakgrund: Barn ska få vara delaktiga och få anpassat stöd för att uttrycka sig i sin intervention. Barn med autismspektrumdiagnos (ASD) har ofta en annorlunda sensorisk process, vilket kan påverka delaktighet i aktiviteter. Det saknas information kring hur arbetsterapeuter samkonstruerar med barnet som klient i interventioner. Syfte: Att undersöka hur arbetsterapeuters samkonstruktion sker med barBackground: Children must receive tailored support to participate and express themselves in their care. Children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) commonly have a different sensory process, which can affect participation in activities. There is a lack of information regarding how occupational therapists collaborate with children as clients in interventions. Purpose: To investigate how occupation

Title: Should we do it ourselves or should we let somebody else do it? An exploratory study of in-house agencies and external agencies in marketing and brand management Course: BUSN39 - Degree project in Global Marketing Authors: Nicholas-Joel Kisling & Julia Herma Cornée Dorothée Bosveld Keywords: In-House Agency, Make-or-Buy, Insourcing, Outsourcing, External Agencies, Marketing, Brand Ma

Entrepreneurs face challenging work-related stressors inherent to their occupation. Prolonged exposure to such stressors can have negative consequences on well-being and job satisfaction, which highlights the need for recovery from work-related stressors. This thesis focuses on psychological detachment (PD) as an impactful recovery process. Due to the characteristics of the entrepreneurial profess

Freshwater systems are active components of the global carbon cycle and contribute to global CO2 emissions. Freshwater studies in the Arctic are underrepresented, especially regarding lakes and their Dissolved Organic Carbon (DOC) reactivity and composition dynamics. DOC is a main part of DOM (dissolved organic matter), which drives processes central to carbon cycling, influences chemical and biol

Purpose: The thesis aims to address the different roles incumbent firms can take in the emerging plant-based ecosystem and to contribute with new understandings related to these ecosystems. Theoretical framework: The theoretical foundation for the thesis is rooted in theories on systems thinking, ecosystems and with a discussion around the roles that are inherent in ecosystems. This is accompanie

Time-resolved x-ray tomography enables us to dynamically and non-destructively study the interior of a specimen. The obtainable temporal resolution is limited by the x-ray flux and the desired spatial resolution. To allow faster acquisition speeds, we explore a deep-learning approach that applies super-resolution and image denoising to fast time-resolved tomograms. The domain translation algorithm

Effectively utilizing Big Data can be a challenge for many companies. Due to its volume, many aspects of the data processing pipeline such as storage, retrieval and usage may quickly become problematic. For example, it could be difficult identifying the relevant metrics when analyzing a service failure. Visualizing and deriving insights from the data could also prove to be quite onerous. Immersive
