As neural networks find more and more practical applications targeted for edge devices, the implementation of energy-efficient architectures is becoming very crucial. Despite the advancements in process technology, power and performance of memories remain to be a bottleneck for most computing platforms. The aim of this thesis is to study the effect of the breakdown structure of memories on power c
Reaching intended effects of the covid-19 pandemic vaccination is dependent on both coverage rates and time. Without vaccine mandates in Sweden, communication strategists have become essential to succeed. Vaccine hesitancy is complex with reasons differing on an individual level. This makes mass communication suboptimal, but also mainly what is used due to practical reasons. Consequently, understa
Svenska Kärnbränslehanteringen (SKB) startade ett projekt under 2020 i närheten av Forsmark i Sverige med målet att utöka deformationszonsmodellen till att inkludera hela dräneringsområdet runt om det planerade slutförvaret för använt kärnbränsle. Detta arbete bygger på en lineamentmodell som var skapad för SKB. Denna modell använder sig av magnetiska data tillsammans med höjddata samt data insamlThe Swedish Nuclear Fuel and Waste Management Co. (SKB) started a project in 2020 near Forsmark, Sweden with the aim to expand the deformation zone model to encompass the entire catchment area around the planned repository for spent nuclear fuel. This thesis builds upon a lineament model that was constructed for SKB which utilizes airborne magnetic data supported by airborne Very Low Frequency (VL
This thesis investigate the possibility for a island to be electrically powered only by wind turbines as this form of energy source is variable. There is a need to store it. In this thesis we look at the possibility for hydrogen to be the energy carrier in such a system. This results in the use of the surplus electricity produced by wind turbines to produce hydrogen, store it and use it later to p
South Korea’s leaders are constantly representing Korea around the world and building new diplomatic relationships to enhance its influence internationally. Nowadays the country’s ambitions for diplomacy reach further away from neighbouring countries and into distant regions. This thesis is interested in the relationship between South Korea and European countries, focusing on the way that Korea ch
Skånska Travsällskapet (STS) har styckat av fastigheten som nuvarande Jägersro trav- och galoppområde är belägen på och kan genom försäljningen finansiera uppbyggnaden av ett nytt Jägersro Hästcenter (JH). STS:s målsättning är att JH ska bli en framtidsorienterad anläggning som tar miljö- och klimatutmaningarna på allvar och bidrar med samhällsnytta för en hållbar utveckling av Malmö stad. Som priSkånska Travsällskapet (STS, ``The Scanian Trotting Association``) has subdivided its property on which the current Jägersro trotting and galloping arena is located. They have thereby enabled the financial means to invest in a new horse racing arena. The project aims to reduce its negative impacts on the environment and climate by selecting and integrating technologies that contributes positively
Denna magisteruppsats tar sin utgångspunkt i en översättning från engelska av ett politiskt samtal i boken Making Sense av Sam Harris. Uppsatsen inleds med en källtextanalys och en redogörelse för den globala strategi som har använts vid översättningen. Därefter följer en översättningsanalys som behandlar översättningen av tre ord som representerar olika typer av polysemi – denunciation, governmen
This study sheds light on the salinity-induced social insecurities of coastal women and adolescent girls of Bangladesh and shows how salinity contributes to creating and intensifying those insecurities. Moreover, the study explores the gendered division of labor and shows how coastal females’ gender roles are accelerating to their deprivation and disadvantaged situation. Besides, it explores coast
Rapid aging of the societies and falling birth rates across the world are among the most significant contemporary socioeconomic problems. Meanwhile, in the era of ‘Fake News’ the construction of the media narratives has become increasingly relevant. As challenges posed by aging population are often framed from the point of view of the competitiveness of societies, years 2006-2015 before, during an
An evaluative neutralisation process, whereby questionnaire items are phrased to be less evaluative, was used to create a new less socially desirable version of the social dominance orientation scale (SDO7). The main goal is to counteract the persistent floor effect which has affected the scale since its inception. The rationale behind the suggested correction is rooted with the problem of social
Ändliga projektiva plan finns i skärningspunkten av flera till synes orelaterade grenar av matematiken. Denna tes utforskar hur ändliga projektiva plan uppstår, både ur den väldigt konkreta och visuella projektiva geometrin, som först utvecklades av renässansens konstnärer för att avbilda objekt i den verkliga världen på en tvådimensionell yta med hjälp av perspektiv. Samt utforskar den hur planenThis thesis defines the finite projective plane and the affine projective plane. A method of construction is defined for the field planes by extension of the affine plane constructed from the vector space over a finite field. The thesis explores for which orders planes can and cannot be constructed, in particular, for the prime powers there exist planes. For n=6 a computer search is conducted usin
En mer flexibel och effektiv arbetsmarknad med olika lagregleringar har lett till en arbetsmarknad där allt fler bemanningsföretag hyr ut arbetstagare, ofta under kortare perioder. Att vara uthyrd arbetstagare ses ofta som en osäker anställningsform. Denna uppsats ämnar att undersöka konsultchefers syn på osäkra anställningsformer. Syftet är att undersöka konsultchefers perspektiv på osäkra anstäl
The permanent magnet synchronous machine (PMSM) can be used for a wide range of applications. In this case, the motor that is examined is inspired of Husqvarna's handheld electrical tools where the motor is part of its electrical chainsaw. The idea is to investigate and simulate different algorithms for online parameter estimation for the PMSM. Consequently, one of the algorithms is selected a
Miniature bladder tumors in a 3D cell culture Bladder cancer is a common cancer type and represents a complex disease that causes high mortality if not treated properly. To find new treatments and optimize current therapies, expanding research model systems is important. The aim of this Master’s Project was to establish and optimize a newly popularized organoid method on bladder cancer cells. Ou
Kan vissa läkemedel leda till spelberoende? I kroppen baserar ofta många processer på en och samma substans. Exempelvis finns det olika kommunikationssystem i hjärnan som använder sig av signalämnet dopamin. Därför kan det uppstå biverkningar när man försöker påverka ett av dessa system med läkemedel, till exempel i behandling av Parkinsons sjukdom, restless legs syndrom eller schizofreni. Den hä
This essay analyzes the differences and similarities in the most recent EU and U.S. elections. A narrative analysis is employed, and the theory is based on a social constructionist approach to knowledge. An analytical framework is developed comparing categories/contents of right-wing populism and democracy in relation to the narrative elements building on Labov och Waletskys (1967). The study show
Det här arbetet handlar om en genmodifierad och plastproducerande mikroorganism och hur den kan odlas. Plast är en oumbärlig del av vårt dagliga liv. Maten vi köper är paketerad i plast och vårt dricksvatten leds i plaströr i marken. Tyvärr är stor del av den plast som produceras idag gjord av kemikalier som härstammar från fossil olja. Användning av fossil olja är något som man vill undvika för aTo reduce pollution and green house gas emissions associated with plastic production and waste, biobased production of the biodegradable plastic, polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB), is suggested to be a good substitute to petrochemically derived plastics used in foodstuff packaging. However, bacterial production of PHB has proven costly and production with plants occurs at the expense of arable land. Oleag
Cytochrome c oxidases - why you need copper to breathe The next time anyone will ask you to provide any proof of evolution, you can surprise them by mentioning cytochrome c oxidases. Not only this answer will make you look smart and knowledgeable, but it will also provide a very solid example of something that brings together any oxygen-breathing organism, from the smallest bacterium to a majesti
How we as viewers emotionally connect and interact with art and other aesthetic experiences is a widely debated topic in the art historical discourse. Following German aesthetician and philosopher Robert Vischer’s theorisation of the concept of Einfühlung during the 1870s, the empathic discourse has intrigued and engaged thinkers throughout centuries. With the discovery of mirror neurons in the hu
