The study of heterogeneous catalysis has important implications in increasing the efficiency of industrial processes and in reducing the emissions of greenhouse gases from sources such as automobiles. A reaction with high industrial relevance is the oxidation of CO on noble metal catalysts. In this work I apply Fourier Transformations to Ambient Pressure X-ray and Ultraviolet Photoelectron Spectr

Idag används intelligenstester frekvent i rekryteringssammanhang och då dessa tester har visat sig vara en stark prediktor för framtida arbetsinsats läggs vikt vid dessa när det kommer till olika urvalsprocesser. Av den anledningen är det inte ovanligt att arbetssökande får genomföra ett intelligenstest vid flera tillfällen i sin karriär vilket kan leda till olika resultat vid olika tillfällen. StIntelligence tests are frequently used in recruitment contexts since these tests have shown to be a strong predictor when it comes to future work performance. Therefore, it is not uncommon for job seekers to take these tests on several occasions throughout their careers with scores fluctuating to some degree. The aim of the study was to investigate whether there is an improvement in the performanc

Introduction: The ability to find human remains as well as locating surfaces that previously have been exposed to human remains, is essential for crime solving and is widely known throughout the whole forensic community to be a complex process. Background: Human bodies will undergo a decomposition process that generates volatile organic compounds (VOCs). The scientific community has been evaluat

This bachelor's thesis focuses on how scaling the pool diameter affects flammable liquids in an oxygen reduction system (ORS). This topic in the study of pool fire behavior in hypoxic air has been only lightly discussed in previous literature. Therefore, the goal of this thesis work is to further broaden the understanding of hypoxic air. This is done through experimental studies, examination o

This thesis investigates the transition of Quantum Chromodynamic (QCD) matter to a strongly interacting Quark Gluon Plasma (QGP), where quarks and gluons become deconfined. The expansion of this plasma exhibits characteristics of an ideal relativistic hydrodynamics system, suggesting a behavior similar to that of a perfect fluid. Collective behavior, indicating a QGP phase, is studied through anis

A healthy diet has demonstrated its effectiveness in preventing globally rising lifestyle-related diseases including type 2 diabetes. Moreover, previous researches investigating polar lipids suggest that these compounds could potentially enhance metabolic variables associated with type 2 diabetes. Consequently, the present study assessed two commercial lecithin preparations, rich in polar lipids,

Examensarbetet utreder och diskuterar Lantmäteriets rapport om Stämpelskatt vid förvärv av fast egendom genom fastighetsbildningsåtgärder och hur deras förslag om en generell stämpelskatteplikt för förvärv av fast egendom genom fastighetsbildning kan se ut i olika situationer. För att förstå deras förslag görs en tillbakablick på utredning Vissa frågor inom fastighets- och stämpelskatteområdet, SOThis thesis investigates and discusses the National Land Survey of Sweden’s report “Stamp duty in acquisition of real property through property formation measures”, as well as their proposal for a general stamp duty liability for the acquisition of real property through property formation. To understand their proposal, a retrospective analysis has been conducted on the investigation “Certain Issu

De samhälleliga förhållandena för personer med intellektuell funktionsnedsättning har under det senaste seklet utvecklats dramatiskt. Det förhållningssätt som under tidigare delen av 1900-talet ledde till institutionalisering och sterilisering har numera ersatts av ett förhållningssätt som i större utsträckning utgår från humanitet och ett bejakande av mänskliga rättigheter. Det moderna synsättet The societal conditions for individuals with intellectual disabilities have evolved dramatically over the past century. The approach that during the earlier parts of the 20th century led to practices such as institutionalization and sterilization has by now been replaced by an approach that to a higher extent is based upon the affirmation of basic human rights. This shift in approach has resulted

Inom matematik så används något som kallas derivator för att beräkna förändring. Ett exempel är hastighet som är positionens derivata. När man uppskattar hastighet så dividerar man förflyttningssträckan med tidsåtgången. För att ge en mer precis uppskattning för hastigheten i stunden så kan man då minska tiden man beräknar över. När detta görs på datorer så stöter man på problem när stegen blir föSome numerical methods approximate the Jacobian using finite differences as part of their process. The finite difference method of approximation resembles the limit definition of the derivative. Since a computer cannot handle the mathematical concept of limits, a sufficiently small number has to be chosen as an increment. However, when the increments are chosen outside of certain acceptable ranges

Virtual Reality (VR) shooting simulators have gained popularity as effective training and entertainment tools. GAIM is a Swedish company specializing in VR shooting simulators, offering VR headsets with physical dummy guns and rifles. These dummy weapons contain complex electronics that are prone to compilations, especially because the Printed Circuit Board (PCB) is fitted in very compact spaces i

Den aktuella studien är en kvantitativ enkätstudie grundad i Anknytningsteori och “Age-graded theory of informal social control" som ämnade att undersöka kopplingen mellan anknytning, moral samt kriminalitet. Studien testade de tre följande hypoteserna; Låg moral och generell otrygg anknytning predicerar tillsammans en intensiv kriminell karriär i högre utsträckning än endast generell otrygg The current study is a quantitative survey based on attachment theory and age-graded theory of informal social control with the purpose of investigating the connection between attachment, morality and crime. The study has tested three hypotheses; Low morality and general insecure attachment together predicts an intense criminal career more than insecure attachment alone. An insecure attachment to

Log messages are implemented by developers to record important runtime information about a system. For that reason, system logs can provide insight into the state and health of a system and potentially be used to anticipate and discover errors. Manually inspecting these logs becomes impractical due to the high volume of messages generated by modern systems. Consequently, the research field of mach

This thesis aims to evaluate which aspects are important when generating synthetic data with the purpose of running on a lightweight object detection model on an edge device. The task we constructed was to detect Canisters and whether they feature a protective valve called a Cap or not (called a No-Cap). The problem was split into three separate classes in order to evaluate objects with varying si

Cultural institutions such as museums and art galleries are important agents in educating the broader public on matters where current awareness is missing, inadequate or inaccurate. In this study, I focus on one such matter, which is the knowledge regarding ethnic minorities, their history, traditions, and current challenges. My primary focus is on how cultural institutions utilise their exhibitio

Data augmentation is a concept which is used to improve machine learning models for computer vision tasks. It is usually done by firstly, defining a set of functions which transforms images and secondly, applying a random selection of these functions on the images. Since the quality of training data is one of the, if not the most important factor to obtain a good model, this master thesis poses th
