Papperssugrör kan förhoppningsvis ersätta dagens plastsugrör på mindre dryckesförpackningar, för att minska engångsanvändningen av plast över hela världen. Tetra Pak producerar sina egna papperssugrör i Lund, och undersöker möjligheten att övervaka produktionen med hjälp av bilder på de producerade sugrören. I detta arbete ligger fokus på styrkan hos tippen på sugröret, och vilken kraft som behövsContinuous production control is important for the production using Tetra Pak equipment, as problems that are found early in the chain of production can minimize the need for waste greatly. In production of paper straws, a possible production control could be to photograph straws during production, analyse these and predict how good the straw is, using the image. If the predicted performance of th

This study aims to highlight some of the impacts following the climatic event of 536 C.E. This is achieved by analyzing and comparing excavated settlement patterns throughout the southern Malmö area in two phases that precede and succeed the year 550 C.E. Furthermore, the study evaluates a possible shift in social order and agency within the local community, as well as how this shift could potenti

The aim of this study was to examine the interprofessional teamwork at a primary healthcare center that uses the IBH model concerning how the different professions interact in the care of people with mental illness. The method chosen was seven semi-structured interviews with different professions that work at a primary health care center in Southern Sweden that uses the organizational model IBH.

I examensarbetet har maskininlärning använts för att kombinera detektionen av röda blod-kroppar och blodplättar. En snabbare lösning i jämförelse med dagens separata algoritmer på företaget utformades, med prestanda i samma klass.Blood analysis is an integral part of diagnostic medicine and used in most medical fields. The concentrations of red blood cells and platelets, and ratio between these, are used for diagnosing several diseases. CellaVision develops machines and software for automatically capturing images of blood sample smears and detecting its cellular contents. The company currently has separate algorithms for d

Sweden was one of the first countries in the world to declare that it had a feminist government, following years of high rankings on global gender equality indexes and a relatively stable image of Sweden as a gender equality leader. However, the declaration has been accompanied by scholarly inquiry defying claims connected to Swedish feminist governance, often challenging its transformative capaci

For many years, indigeneity has been conceptualized as rural, making Indigenous communities and people in cities invisible globally. For the Sámi people, Europe’s only indigenous people, security is mainly understood as physical-centering extraction and environmental degradation. Focusing on the urban Sámi community in Umeå in Sweden, cultural and political belonging in the city arises as vital in

Many cocoa farmers, despite their crucial role for the production of chocolate and other cocoa products that many consumers enjoy, struggle to earn a decent income and improve their livelihoods. This thesis analyses the impact of the Living Income Differential, a fixed 400$ price markup added to the per-tonne cocoa price, on the position of Ghanaian farmers in the global value chain. Based on the

Home fires are the most prevalent and preventable disaster in the United States. It is notoriously difficult to teach disaster preparedness skills to adults. But, when their children are taught this material, households are more likely to make changes. The purpose of this thesis is to examine the impact of the American Red Cross’s “Prepare with Pedro!” youth disaster preparedness program on studen

5G New Radio is the next generation of mobile networks and it comes with promises of ultra-high speeds, ultra-high reliability and ultra-low latency. This has posed a challenge for the engineers entrusted with the task of finding solutions which could fulfil the specification, and as a result, some promising areas have received increased attention in recent years. Signal processing techniques like

In 2018 the South Korean Supreme Court declared the Military Service Act unconstitutional and mandated that the National Assembly implement an alternative service for those who object to military service for moral or religious reasons. This ruling is a reversal from previous cases dealing with the same issue. Using theories of institutional change, this paper investigates the evolution of the judi

In 2012, Xi Jinping launched a major legal reform in China. 10 years on “Xi Jinping Thought on Rule of Law” is a well-established and widely used term. This thesis systematically investigates the nature of this legal doctrine through the lenses of rule of law and rule by law. Furthermore, it discusses the feasibility of using Western legal doctrines in non-Western contexts. The data used for the a

Solid waste management has become a large challenge worldwide as the generation of waste continues to increase. Deficient linear solid waste management practices have significant impacts on the environment, health and economy and there is a need for more sustainable systems and processes. Especially developing countries experience limitations on solid waste management. This study explores the dist

Undersköterskor uppfattar sin hälsa som sämre under Covid-19. Uppfattningen av ens hälsa kan påverkas av flera faktorer där ovisshet, utebliven återhämtning och brist på stöd är tre exempel. Syftet är att förstå hur undersköterskor i en region i Sverige upplevde sin hälsa under Covid-19. Målet med syftet är därmed att skapa förståelse för hur undersköterskors arbetsplats kan påverka deras hälsa. DAssistant nurses perceive their health as worse during Covid-19. The perception of one's health can be affected by several factors where uncertainty, lack of recovery and lack of support are three example. The purpose is to understand how assistant nurses in a region in Sweden experienced their health during Covid-19. The aim of the purpose is thus to create an understanding of how the assista

The European Spallation Source ESS, under construction in Lund, Sweden, aims to produce high-brightness and intensity neutrons for a multitude of experiments upon completion. An efficient production of neutrons requires elaborate understanding of the moderation process which slows the neutrons from relativistic speed to a kinetic energy of meV. The moderator used at the ESS will be partially made

This study explores credibility assessment in the Danish asylum determination system, through the perspective of advisors to asylum seekers. These advisors are either lawyers, aid workers, or volunteers, but are all people who have experience supporting asylum seekers through the bureaucratic process of the Danish asylum system. The element of credibility has long been considered an elusive and la

There are multiple things you can do at the public library such as study, borrow books and use the computers. The purpose of this master thesis is to understand what opinions the visitors to Lund Municipality's public library have about the process of looking for books in the library. Furthermore, it will be investigated whether the opinions differ between visitors to staffed or unstaffed libr

The purpose of this study is to investigate if the equity markets react more positively to the issuance announcement of a green bond compared to the issuance announcement of a brown bond and if the introduction of the EU taxonomy has had an effect on the announcement effects. The study contributes to the existing literature by using an updated sample of 511 bonds from 61 issuers stemming from coun

The goal of this thesis has been to develop and evaluate a proposal as how to integrate a new motor system for the top horizontal roller of an ASSA ABLOY weather shelter. This required changes to the current system, both in hardware and software. The main challenge was that the old motor could be back driven by the system, and the replacement motor could not. Thus, a solution where the new moto

Technical assistance to public sector organisations is a much-debated topic and showcases a considerable size in contemporary international development assistance. Yet, the empirical evidence base on which factors contribute to the outcomes of projects within this field is surprisingly slim and diffuse. Particularly, the mechanisms through which different factors affect project outcomes remains un
