Färskvatten av god kvalitet och kvantitet är avgörande för mänsklig överlevnad och livskvalitet. För att ta vara på befintliga vattenresurser vid vattenbrist kan renat avloppsvatten återanvändas. Simrishamns kommun i östra Skåne upplever redan idag vattenbrist och återanvändning av vatten genom konstgjord infiltration övervägs därför. Syftet med det här arbetet är att klargöra den kemiska kvalitetSufficient quantity and quality of fresh water is crucial for human survival and quality of life. Water resources in water scarce areas can be efficiently managed by water reuse. In the Swedish municipality of Simrishamn, water scarcity is already a fact. Therefore, indirect water reuse by artificial infiltration is considered. The aim of this project is to examine the chemical quality and thereby

Stabilitetsberäkningar under tidigt projektstadium är tidskrävande och små ändringar i byggnadens geometri kräver nya tidskrävande beräkningar. Vanligtvis är byggnader modellerade i 3D program såsom Revit och Tekla men beräkningar utförs i andra program. Ett beräkningsprogram i Dynamo (tillägg till Revit) har skapats som kan hämta geometriska data och material data från en Revit modell och automatPerforming horizontal stability analysis in the conceptual design phase is time consuming and adjustments in the geometry of the building require new time consuming calculations. Often buildings are modelled in 3D modelling software such as Revit and Tekla but the calculations are often performed in a separate software. A script in Dynamo (add-in to Revit) has been designed that manages to gather

Utvärdering av testmetod för bestämning av skjuvstyvhet för korslimmat trä Byggbranschen står inför stora utmaningar de kommande åren. Cirka 20% av Sveriges totala utsläpp av växthusgaser kommer från just denna bransch. Betong, som länge varit ett tryggt och pålitligt val är en av bovarna i dramat. Nya mer klimatsmarta byggmaterial är därför ett måste. Ett allt mer populärt alternativ till betonCross laminated timber (CLT) is an engineered wood product that was first developed in the 1990s. Since then it has grown in popularity thanks to its many advantages such as: low environment impact, high degree of prefabrication and low weight. As the material is relatively new the standardization process is still in the early stages. The purpose of this thesis is to evaluate a testing method whic

This essay introduces the sequential Good-Turing estimator and reviews the Good-Turing, Good-Toulmin and smoothed Good-Toulmin estimators. Some theoretical properties and drawbacks of the estimators are described. MonteCarlo simulation is then used to compare the performance of the sequential Good-Turing estimator to the performance of the Good-Toulmin estimator along with the smoothed Good-Toulmi

Bioprinting is the act of using a 3D-printer in order to make structures out of materials that contain living cells. A big problem with this is that there is no defined standard for how this bioink should be made or what characteristics it should possess. This report intends to establish a set of criterias with which to evaluate the quality of the hydrogel used to create a bioink. This project wil

In this study, the quantitative relationship between the three dimensions of transformative capacity – cognitive, structural and agency – and the climate change performance of countries is examined. To do this, indexes are created and panel data regressions conducted. The result indicates a significant negative relationship between the cognitive and diversity dimension index and climate change per

This thesis strives to dive deeper within the area of Monocular Depth Estimation, approximating distance information from one single image using deep neural networks. It introduces a thorough evaluation and analysis of state-of-the-art depth estimation models regarding proposed aspects of relevance for downstream video applications, specifically in a surveillance domain. This leads to three custom

Merger control is an important component of competition law in the EU. There are two levels of merger control in the EU. The first level is EU merger control for transactions that have an EU dimension, which fall within the jurisdiction of the Commission under the EU Merger Regulation. The second level is national merger control for transactions which do not meet the criteria of the EU Merger Regu

The qualitative research is done by performing thirty-six semi-structured interviews to farmers and stakeholders along the cassava value chain. The research concludes that agro-processing activities a

Inom partikelfysik försöker forskare hitta en så djupgående och allmän modell som möjligt. Den modell som experimentellt har verifierats kallas för Standardmodellen (SM). Det finns dock andra teorier, såsom Tvåhiggsdubbletmodellen (2HDM), som innehåller mer exotisk fysik. Dock är experimentella verktyg begränsade och som fysiker vill man gärna kunna ha en teori för att kunna förutspå egenskaper soIn this thesis, we study the Higgs mass spectrum and spontaneous CP violation, where one of the Higgs vacuum expectation values acquires a non-trivial phase θ in a Type-I 2HDM. We begin by investigating CP violating effects at tree-level, and then expand our studies by taking into account one-loop radiative corrections. After imposing tadpole conditions we discover that this model gives the same m

Background The diffusion kinetics of metabolites across the skin, the composition of the skin, the metabolites released as a consequence of different illnesses as well as the relationship be- tween

The purpose of this master’s thesis is to illuminate the information practices of professional musicians in the field of Early music. These musicians have a special interest in exploring the performance practices of the time periods when the music was composed, to make it more vivid in the present. This more and more widespread approach to Early music is called Historically Informed Performance (H

The high competition in the FMCG market today has led to an increased focus on retaining customers and adding value beyond the core business interest. Consequently, most brands engage in cause-related activities to drive brand loyalty. However, the FMCG industry is characterized by low customer involvement, which could argue why cause-related activities do not affect customer behavior. Furthermore
