Utveckling av mjukvara för styrning av tvåfasstegmotorer

Med moderna mikroprocessorer kan motorstyrning göras i mjukvara. Ett mer konkret exempel är möjligheten att köra tvåfasstegmotorer med strömreglering. Redan med en enkel regulator kan mycket bra resultat uppnås. Stegmotor är en elektrisk motor som har fått sitt namn för att ett varv är uppdelat i ett antal lika stora steg. Antal steg/varv varierar och väljs utifrån motorns användningsområde. En s

The Intersections of Race and Class-Based Social Movements under Fordism: Rediscovering a Neglected Form of Critical Social Analysis

When critical scholars coming from different academic disciplines, such as sociology, gender studies, or Black studies, meet and discuss today, discussions sometimes take the form of whether recognition of particular identities or redistribution of material resources is of most importance. In this thesis, my aim is to explore resources that could contribute to moving beyond this framing of the que

A legal analysis of the SIEC test in practice within mergers of digital platforms in Sweden and the EU

Immobilization and Heterogenization of Homogeneous Catalysts in Metal-Organic-Frameworks

Denna avhandling beskriver studier av hur metallkomplex som fungerar som katalysatorer i lösning kan absorberas i s k metall-organiska nätverksstrukturer (metal-organic frameworks = MOFs). MOFs är porösa kristallina material som har en bred funktion i såväl laboratorium som industri. Genom sådan absorption kan det lösliga komplexet inkorporeras i håligheter i nätverket; det lösliga komplexet befinThis work constitutes the results from a one year master thesis research project (Sep, 2019 to Aug, 2020). Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) have been used for encapsulation of homogeneous catalysts to generate heterogeneous catalysts. This work describes the incorporation of the non-heme iron complex [(Fe(II)N4Py)]2+ and two molybdenum−sulfur clusters (MOS) into the pores of UiO-type MOFs via absor

Characterization of InAs-Al semiconductor-superconductor hybrid devices

Olösliga problem blir lösbara med framtidens kvantdatorer! Under 1900-talet gjordes oerhörda framsteg i vår förståelse av kvantmekaniska fenomen, men för varje besvarad fråga väcks två nya. Många högaktuella frågor, och mål, gäller förverkligandet av kvantdatorn, där en av de främsta frågorna är: vilka kvantmekaniska fenomen ska utgöra grunden för kvantdatorns grundkomponent (en ’qubit’)? AlternatIn this thesis we study charge and spin transport through InAs-Al nanowire superconductor-semiconductor hybrid devices. We focus on assessing the quality of the InAs-Al contact interface when using a weak HCl acid to wet-etch the nanowire surface prior to metal evaporation. The contact quality assessment is based on parameters extracted via electrical characterization performed mK temperatures in

The virtual public sphere and social movements on social media

Like many things, social movements have been able to take a new form, and behave differently, thanks to the rise of the internet and social media networks. The purpose of this study is to analyze how long lasting this engagement is from its participants, and how short-run participation in social movements can be understood. This study has been heavily inspired by Zizi Papacharissi, therefore the t

Rätt subjekt? - En undersökning av rättssubjektet och rättssubjektiviteten med utgångspunkt i Visa Kurkis the bundle theory of legal personhood

De senaste decenniernas juridiska utveckling där nya sorters entiteter erkänns status som rättssubjekt har aktualiserat frågan om vad som egentligen definierar ett rättssubjekt och vad rättssubjektivitet, de rättsliga positioner som rättssubjekt typiskt sett kan inneha, egentligen innebär. Uppsatsen använder sig av en av de senaste teorierna i ämnet, Visa Kurkis the bundle theory of legal personThe past decades new kinds of entities have been recognised as legal persons. This global development in law have led to an increased academic interest in the concepts of legal person and legal personhood and what it is that defines these concepts. The thesis explores legal personhood through one of the latest theories on the subject, the bundle theory of legal personhood of Visa Kurki. It does

Global goals on local level: How do civil society organizations in Indonesia working with gender equality, female empowerment and female entrepreneurs frame the Sustainable Development Goals and local challenges?

The SDGs provide a global policy framework for regulatory actions at national, regional and international levels. However, when it comes to how to locally implement these goals it is important to understand the context of the local reality. This paper has two objectives. It seeks to critically analyse how the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) goals are framed by civil society organizations (CSO

“I don’t feel like a refugee. I’m here as a student”: Exploring Syrian Displaced-Background Students' Transitional Process in Private Mexican Higher Education

Humanitarian crises caused by natural disasters or human reasons have hampered the access of generations of young adults to higher education. The aftermath of the Syrian conflict in 2011 led to the emergence of various initiatives, mostly set in neighboring countries and the global north, for refugees and displaced populations to pursue higher education studies. Policymakers and academics have foc

Narrative and Gender: Similarities and differences in written narratives produced from same- and opposite-gender perspective in Modern Greek

Narrative and gender are both notions closely connected to culture and society. Narrative, on the one hand, is not just the art of telling stories, it carries deeper meanings, evokes feelings, and even affects our actions and interactions with one another. Gender, on the other hand, and specifically social gender, is defined as the gender identity that a person has shaped through his or her intera
