Victoria Persson Abstract Mussel cultivation is a sustainable type of food production that may help mitigate the nutritional needs of a future world population of 10-12 billion in 2100. The demand for mussels on the French market is increasing but the production is saturated due to a lack of space for expanding the cultivation close to shore. This study looked at offshore possibilities for cult

Introduction: Avenanthramides are antioxidants present in oats, which are interesting as a food additive for functional foods. Background: The most common method used for extraction of avenanthramides is a relative time consuming solid-liquid extraction with aqueous ethanol, which is not suitable for large scale extraction. A greener alternative could be pressurized hot water extraction (PHWE).

Co-simulation is widely used in industry for the simulation of multi-domain linear-time-invariant systems. However, as a result of the not continuous communication between our coupling variables, simulation results end up being unstable and inaccurate. Among the different strategies that have been developed in the recent years to control co-simulation drawbacks, the aim of this thesis is to unders

The carbon market promises cost-effective climate change mitigation and economic growth. However, it has been criticised as greenwashing and delaying necessary decarbonisation. This thesis examines the genealogy of the carbon market to address the human rights consequences for future generations. Approaching the issue from a theoretical framework of intergenerational justice enables an understandi

Den här uppsatsen syftar till att undersöka om gymnasielärare upplever arbetstillfredsställelse inom läraryrket och om Human relations (HR) bidragit eller inte bidragit till upplevelserna av tillfredställelse i arbetet. Trots hög sjukfrånvaro i samhället där arbetet tycks spela en central roll insisterar människan om att arbetet ska översättas i termer som tillfredställelse och meningsfullhet. Lär

Uppsatsens syftade till att med kvalitativ metod undersöka upplevelsen av att arbeta hemifrån till följd av Covid-19 pandemin och vilket värde arbetare lägger i kontoret. Åtta intervjuer genomfördes med personer vars arbetsvardag blivit mer flexibel för att få djupare förståelse hur människor värdesätter möjligheten till att arbeta flexibelt. Människor upplever sig mer engagerade i sitt arbete när

This paper examined the language attitudes of native English speakers recruited from Reddit toward two native and two non-native English accents using the verbal-guise technique and speech audio files from The Speech Accent Archive (Weinberger, 2017). The two native English accents are General American (GA) and Received Pronunciation (RP). The two non-native English accents are German- and Mexican

In modern legal systems, criminal responsibility is based on the concept of agency, which includes autonomy, intentionality, and individual accountability. In parallel, as technology advances and the use of artificial intelligence in our daily lives becomes more prevalent, important tasks are entrusted to AI-driven systems. As a result, AI will increasingly perform independently of humans. The mor

In the last few decades, dissatisfaction with the prevailing critical paradigm ¬– what Eve Kosofsky Sedgwick as early as 1997 dubbed “paranoid” or “suspicious” reading – has grown significantly. This thesis is a survey of three recent works, The Albertine Workout (2014), Unfinished Business: Notes of A Chronic Re-Reader (2020), and A Ghost in the Throat (2020), that emerge from this discontent. Pa

Star clusters can harbour many exotic objects, including black holes (BHs), X-ray binaries and blue straggler stars. In dense stellar environments like globular clusters (GCs), two-body relaxation drives their dynamical evolution, where gravitational interactions between stars strive to equalize their kinetic energy in the cluster. Theoretical studies have indicated that some of these clusters can

In this thesis project, we introduce an inclusive, environmentally friendly structure to the city of Amman, where both humans and non-humans can coexist and share spaces within the same boundary. We investigated various design approaches and incorporated generative design and Machine Learning in the form-finding phase of different architectural elements. We used the generative design approach in t

I Lydia Wistisens avhandling Gångtunneln (2017) nämner hon att storstaden kommit att bli den mest vanliga miljöskildringen i ungdomslitteraturen under 1900-talet. Ungdomar har en egen stadsgeografi och det är dessa erfarenheter som visar sig i ungdomslitteraturen. Ungdomars förflyttningar i staden går från rum till rum. De rör sig i allmänna stadsrum, förbindelseleder, såsom broar, tunnelbanelinje

In this thesis, an investigation is done about the possibility to integrate electronic push brakes on a bicycle trailer. The bicycle trailer is a multifunctional trailer used when running, bicycling, or skiing. By conducting a concept developing process, this investigation aims to build a full-scale mock-up, that can be used as a proof of concept. The problem is divided into four sub-problems; bra

After the U.S. intervention, civil wars, and growing violence during the late 20th century, migration from the Central American countries to the U.S. increased rapidly in the 1980s, especially illegal migration. The Nicaraguan Adjustment and Central American Relief Act (NACARA) granted Nicaraguans permanent residency, while the others could apply “only” for asylum or were not even mentioned. In th

More than 17.9 million new patients worldwide suffer from heart diseases. In order to conduct a proper diagnosis and treatment, it is necessary to develop a functionality for patients and doctors, which has the possibility to transfer the continuously measured data to the doctor for several days. In addition, such a tool should have the function to wirelessly transmit an alarm to the doctors, prov
