Millimeter-Wave Radar data processing

Databehandling av signaler från millimetervågsradar i realtid Radarsensorer som använder millimetervågor är väldigt användbara inom avkänningsteknik, som har tillämpningar inom bland annat sjukvården, autonoma robotar, osv. Detta examensarbete bygger vidare på en genomförbarhetsstudie som med positiva resultat undersökte om det var möjligt att med hjälp av elektronik och algoritmer förhindra fallBased on the feasibility study [4], the goal of this master thesis is to compile custom firmware for the XM112 Pulsed Coherent Radar Module, which features a state of the art radar sensor integrated with a microcontroller unit (MCU). This allows the use of custom firmware to check the plausibility of real-time data processing on the radar signals and will lay some of the groundwork for further dev

To leave or not to leave - A study on the effect of state-wide integration on the separatist movements of Québec and Catalonia

This study investigates whether there is a correlation between separatism and state-wide integration in multi-nation states.

''Det är en del av jobbet, men det borde inte vara det'' - En kvalitativ studie om hur socialsekreterare definierar och förhåller sig till hot och våld inom ekonomiskt bistånd

Now and then you can read about the threats and violence that occur at different workplaces, it’s common for social workers to be exposed to threats and violence. Studies have shown that people working within social services are more exposed to threats and violence compared to people with other occupations. The aim of this study was to gain a deeper understanding of how social workers in financial

Development of a defined minimal culture medium for Prevotella copri DSM 18205

The human gut microbiota is involved in the host’s health and disease. There has been growing interest in the next generation probiotic candidate Prevotella copri, which plays a beneficial role in glucose metabolism. It is a Gram-negative obligate anaerobe that was first isolated from human faeces and which is present in plant-based fermented foods as well as in human breast milk. The aim of this

Digitalization of household eating practices: A case study of meal-boxes

The aim of this thesis is to describe and explain how meal-box, as a digital device designed to assist households in carrying out eating practices, reconfigure household practices and enable specific behavioural activities, including sustainability. Taking a socio-material and practice theory approach and drawing on an ethnographic study of three meal-box providers – The Seasons, Hello Fresh and L

A Symphonic Discussion of the Animal in Richard Adams' Watership Down

The purpose of this essay is to suggest a new reading of Richard Adams’ Watership Down (1972) by adopting the recently new discipline of Animal Studies. Adams follows a long tradition of talking animals in literature, which still to this day, is an important part of the English literary canon. Throughout this essay, I shall focus on several aspects of the novel. I will look at the anthropomorphize

Activists, Politicians and Children: Visual Representations of Climate Change in Swedish Newspapers 2019

Visual representations can either concretise climate change or make it more abstract and remote. This thesis aims to bring light to how Swedish news imagery of 2019 promotes particular views on climate change. Specifically, it examines the prevalence of five visual themes (people, impacts, causes, landscape and nature, and solutions) and investigates how different geographic regions are depicted i

Lose yourself in the landscape -a respectful and resilient development to connect Häljarp with its train station

This project is about developing a new neighbourhood in Häljarp with a floodable wet land park as the core. After analysing the site and its surroundings, a number of strategies has been created to guide the design process. The strategies are divided into three categories; adapt to the site, liven up the community and complementing the area. This landed in a carefully considered proposal. The desi

Preferenser för hög ESG eller högre moment?

Most existing literature uses a mean-variance frame-work for evaluating expected stock returns and ESG (environmental, social and governance) performance. At the same time, it is argued that the risk mitigation offered by high ESG should lead to higher skewness and lower kurtosis in stock returns. It is also well established that investors have positive preferences for skewness and negative prefer

Föräldrars upplevelser av att ha ett långvarigt sjukt barn med behov av insatser från hälso- och sjukvård

Bakgrund: Ett barn som blir diagnostiserat med långvarig sjukdom påverkar föräldrars fysiska och psykiska hälsa. Familjecentrerad omvårdnad grundar sig i att inkludera hela familjeenheten. För att kunna ge en fullgod familjecentrerad omvårdnad behövs mer kompetens om föräldrarnas upplevelser. Syfte: Syftet är att belysa föräldrars upplevelse av att ha ett långvarigt sjukt barn med behov av insatse

The protection of fictional characters: A study on how fictional characters can be protected under copyright and trade mark law

As the entertainment industry continues to grow and fictional characters holding enormous value, this paper seeks to explain how the characters can be protected within the EU through copyright or the use of trade marks, and what the limitations to such protection might be. The paper is using a legal analytical method and looks at both the legislation and the case-law within the union, but also at

Decreasing organic nitrogen concentrations in European water bodies - links to organic carbon trends and land cover

European rivers experience increasing concentrations of total organic carbon (TOC) from terrestrial sources due to factors involving changes in land use, climate and soil acidity. However, low interest is given to the evolution of total organic nitrogen (TON) concentrations in surface waters, the links with TOC concentrations and the influence of the surrounding land cover on nutrient inputs. Inve

Öppningar och gränser : en fenomenologisk undersökning av biblioteket som rum och plats

The aim of this text is to create a phenomenological understanding of the public library as place and space. Because there is very little written about this subject through this particular perspective, my paper can be seen as a knowledge- theoretical contribution to library- and information science. Through my exploration I emphasize the idea of the subject as embodied and its importance in unders

Foreland evolution of Blåisen, Norway, over the course of an ablation season

Denna studie presenterar en detaljerad undersökning av utvecklingen av sedimentära landformer under en ablationssäsong vid Blåisen, en del av Hardangerjøkulen, Norge. Två besök vid Blåisen, i början och i slutet av ablationssäsongen, gjorde det möjligt att studera hur landformerna bevaras och utvecklas. Det pågår mycket forskning om glaciala landformer som är en nyckel till förståelse av hur tidigThis study presents a detailed investigation into the evolution of sedimentary landforms over an ablation season at Blåisen, an outlet of the Hardangerjøkulen Icecap, Norway. The two visits to Blåisen, one each side of the ablation season, allowed the preservation and evolution of the landforms to be studied. Much research is conducted studying glacial landforms, which are key in our understanding
