Denna reflekterande del av min konstnärliga kandidatexamen började med en nyfikenhet av mina rörelser vid pianot. Jag ville reflektera över hur jag själv uppfattar mina egna rörelser, och varför jag rör mig hur jag gör, och även vilket syfte dessa rörelser har utöver de tekniska krav som musiken ställer på min kropp. Jag valde tre olika videos av framträdande, en live-konsert, en live-streamad konThis reflective part of my Bachelor’s degree started with an increased curiosity into how I move my body whilst at the piano. I wanted to reflect on how I perceive my own movements, on why I move like I do, and what purpose these movements may have beyond the way I need to move to handle any technical difficulties. I chose three different videos of performances, one live concert, one live streamed

Under vårterminen 2020 inträffade coronapandemin (Covid-19) vars effekter blev omfattande världen över. Lärare var en av de yrkesgrupper som behövde hitta nya vägar, inte minst ensemblelärare stod inför flera utmaningar. Syftet med studien är att undersöka hur ensemblelärare i afroamerikansk tradition på gymnasie- och folkhögskolenivå, hanterade och upplevde övergången från närundervisning till diDuring spring of 2020 the corona pandemic (Covid -19) affected everyday life for people all over the world. Teachers had to find new ways to reach out to the students, ensemble teachers included. The purpose of this study is to look into how ensemble teachers within pop, rock and jazz genres handled and experienced the transition to distance education. The concept “the core of the ensemble subject

Vår hud är hem för en stor grupp av mikroorganismer, hudens mikroflora, som påverkar vår hälsa och vårt välbefinnande. Ändå finns det många aspekter av detta ämne som ännu är outforskade. Detta projekt syftade till att optimera en metod för analys av hudens mikroflora och effekten av hudvårdsprodukter på hudens mikroflora, från provtagning och provberedning till analys med kvantitativ polymeraskedOur skin is home to a vast community of microorganisms, the skin micro flora, which affect our health and well-being. Yet, there are many aspects of this topic that are still unexplored. This project aimed to optimize a method for analysis of the skin micro flora and the effect of skin care products on the skin micro flora, from sampling and sample preparation to analysis with quantitative polymer

Hepatobiliary excretion can be a major clearance pathway dictating the pharmacokinetics of drugs. Quantitative prediction of human hepatobiliary excretion of drugs is thus essential in early drug development. Extrapolations from current in vitro models are challenging due to differences in expression of enzymes and transporters from native liver tissue. This study aims to utilise 3D spheroids of p

”Det lilla rummet i staden” utforskar ett av de minsta rummen i staden – kiosken. Kiosken har sedan mer än hundra år tillbaka varit ett stående inslag i vår stadsmiljö. Även om den har ändrat form, uttryck och material, så har dess existens i staden varit konstant. Men någonting har hänt i våra städer, och kioskerna som förr ansågs som nödvändiga för stads- och kvarterslivet har istället börjat pl

This thesis aims to contribute to the understanding of the current knowledge status and potential uses and the diffusion of blockchain-based technologies within the digital advertising field. This research is built upon the theoretical frameworks provided by an adjusted Technology Acceptance Model 2 (TAM 2) and the Disruptive Innovation Theory. The findings of this study enlights marketers with d

Electroencephalography (EEG) is a medical technique for measuring brain activity through several channels connected to the scalp. Interpreting EEG data is a difficult problem because of the large amount of noise contained in the data. Using spectral methods on EEG data can improve the ability to interpret the data, especially using a time-frequency method called the scaled reassigned spectrogram w

In surveillance it is important that the recordings are accurate and in as high quality as possible. The surveillance surroundings and equipment can alter and change the audio and needs to be compensated for. This master thesis project investigates whether using multiple microphones could improve the audio quality. The project was limited to only use analog electronics and constricted itself to th

Material decomposition in X-ray imaging is used to separate different materials or elements in an image and to quantify their respective concentration. The material decomposition and quantification are made possible by the dependency of attenuation on the attenuating material and photon energy. The purpose of this thesis was to implement a material decomposition method, from the image acquisition

Background and aim: There is a high interest in determining the absorbed dose in tumors and organs for various radiotherapy cancer treatments. Due to limitations in today's methods of determining the patient specific absorbed dose it is usually not proceeded clinically. The methods are time consuming but also trying for patients, since it depends on several imaging procedures at different time

Software models can simulate hardware components to varying degrees of ac- curacy. On the extreme ends, there are purely functional models which have no concept of time and execute requests right away, and cycle-accurate models which capture all the implementation details and clock the time they take. In this thesis we study a model of an Arm Mali GPU which is a cycle-approximate model, meaning it

Radiation protection is of importance for the general public, patients and personnel in many different situations: rare accidents involving ionizing radiation, medical examinations or work tasks in the medical clinic or nuclear industry to name a few. Optimization in radiation protection and limitation of radiation doses are essential to prevent overexposure and for reducing negative health conseq

This essay concerns the complementation of the English emotive verbs like, love, hate and prefer. In English, gerund-participial and infinitival complements often receive semi-synonymous semantic interpretations when complementing emotive verbs. All the while, both complement types supposedly convey separate semantic interpretations, resulting in that they commonly appear in contexts expressing ha

SkyTEM-mätningar, även känt som helikopterburna TEM-mätningar (transient elektromagnetisk metod) har utförts vid grundvattenmagasinet Ilstorp i vombsänkan. Resultatet från mätningarna har analyserats i syfte att förbättra kunskapen kring geologiska och hydrogeologiska förhållanden i magasinet. Grundvattenmagasinet Ilstorp är en jordakvifer där de vattenförande avlagringarna består av isälvs- och iSkyTEM, an airborne TEM (transient electromagnetic method), has been used to measure the resistivity of ground in and around the groundwater reservoir Ilstorp in Sjöbo municipality, Skåne, Sweden. The results of the measurements have been analysed in an effort to increase the knowledge about the geological and hydrogeological conditions of the reservoir. Ilstorp is a an aquifer that consists of fl

names, template names, and variables. Macros was used as a quick fix to create complex components. The result was five subprojects where each project explored different ways of designing the prototype. One way was to use macros to create cylinders and connect them to input and output signals in SIMIT. The second was to create templates and then use an Excel sheet to assign the signals. The templat

Theory is still inconclusive to what level income inequality affects economic growth, with little research accounting for the effects of human development. The paper aimed to analyze both the effects of income inequality on growth while controlling for the underlying effects of different human development indicators. This was done by using data of 55 countries for the period 1990-2019, with result

Molten salt applications are challenging from a material perspective. This degree project was carried out at Alfa Laval to give them a better understanding of the corrosion of solar salt on the standard heat exchanger material stainless steel 321. Similar tests have previously been performed externally. By developing test methods for in-house corrosion testing time and money can be saved. In thi

Ett av Sveriges hållbarhetsmål är att senast 2045 inte generera några nettoutsläpp av växthusgaser. För att uppnå detta mål krävs kraftiga åtgärder inom alla sektorer. En av dessa är bygg- och fastighetssektorn som 2018 stod för ca 22 % av Sveriges territoriella utsläpp av växthusgaser. Enbart cementindustrin står för ca 5–7 %. Cirka hälften av klimatpåverkan från moderna flerbostadshus uppkommer One of the main sustainability goals in Sweden is to reduce the nations greenhouse gas emissions to a net-zero level by 2045. This is a national implementation of the Paris- Agreement. To achieve this goal measures need to be taken in all industrial sectors. The construction and real-estate sectors are responsible for about 22 % of Sweden’s yearly territorial greenhouse gas emissions. The cement i
