This thesis investigates the use of several acceleration schemes to improve the performance of the primal-dual hybrid gradient algorithm for linear programming (PDLP), a state-of-the-art first-order method for linear programming (LP). The three main acceleration schemes investigated are: Polyak heavy ball momentum, Nesterov acceleration, and steering vectors selected in a residual momentum directi
With growing concern over organised crime in Sweden, increased attention has been directed towards children's involvement in escalating violence. Children are portrayed both as victims of coercion and as voluntary participants, reflecting a dual approach in governmental policy. This study investigates how the issue of children's involvement in criminal activities is problematised in three
Introduction: Synthesis of novel aliphatic POCOP pincer complexes with β-blocking alkyl groups. Background: An issue with Aliphatic POCOP pincer complexes is that the sought-after C=M bond is unstable with previous attempts forming aromatic groups or decomposing completely under heating. By introducing β-blocking elements to the aliphatic POCOP pincer ligands could this mitigate the decompositio
The effective judicial protection has always been a key concern for the Court of Justice. This thesis analyses the development and constitutional consolidat-ion of effective judicial protection in European Union law. Through a doctrinal and case law analysis, the study traces how effective judicial protection evolved from a procedural limitation rooted in the logic of the Rewe effectiveness into a
An experimental campaign took place at the Argonne National Laboratory (ANL) in the summer of 2020. Its goal was to study the exotic modes of decay of neutron-deficient nuclei located near 56Ni. For this thesis, the part of interest from the campaign is the experiment studying the fusion-evaporation reaction resulting from the collision of high-energy nuclei of 36Ar and a 24Mg target, creating exc
Background: Invasive blood pressure (IBP) monitoring during magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is primarily used in research and intensive care. A monitoring system displays IBP in real time, and there is currently no solution that enables digital recording of this data. The aim of this project was therefore to facilitate clinical research by enabling digital recording of invasive blood pressure. Me
Med en ökande befolkning ökar även behovet av bostäder. Genom ombyggnation av befintliga äldre byggnader kan man ge de boende en modern standard och minska energianvändningen. Att återbruka byggnader ger oftast ett mer hållbart byggande med mindre avfall och koldioxidutsläpp jämfört med att riva och bygga nytt. Syftet med denna fallstudie är att undersöka hur en industribyggnad som uppfördes 1952 With an increasing population, the demand for housing also increases. Due to renovation and retrofitting of the housing stock it is possible to give the future resident a modern housing and at the same time reduce the energy demand for the building. Reusing buildings is often a more sustainable way to develop housing because it results in less waste and lower carbon dioxide emissions compared to d
Purpose: This thesis investigates how the source of product recommendations, specifically, whether delivered by a human expert or an AI system, affects consumer trust and subsequent purchase intentions during the evaluation stage of the online consumer journey. The research further examines how these effects are moderated by the level of perceived risk. Main Research Question: How does the use of

In an urbanizing world, challenged by climate change and rising temperatures, street vegetation can help mitigate urban temperatures. However, scaling the understanding of street vegetation’s cooling effects from local observations to the city level introduces challenges. While several studies have assessed the influence of street greenery on land surface temperature (LST) at the city scale using

The possibilities of artificial intelligence (AI) have become evident in recent years, with new applications manifesting the potential. The field of supplier quality management is no exception, as AI shows promise of transforming the field. AI can boost efficiency, increase transparency while also removing human biases, and ensuring one coherent way of working across the organization. Understandin
Peptidbaserade läkemedel utgör en växande del av läkemedelsindustrin, med behandlingsmöjligheter mot en bredd av sjukdomar. Det första peptidbaserade läkemedlet var insulin som introducerades under 1920-talet, sedan dess har applikationer av peptidläkemedel ökat, och tillverkningsmetoder utvecklats. Under 1960-talet introducerades fastfaspeptidsyntes (solid phase peptide synthesis, SPPS), där peptMethods for synthesis of peptides using solid phase peptide synthesis (SPPS) are hampered by relying on large amounts of hazardous substances such as dimethylformamide (DMF) as solvent for peptide assembly and trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) a per/polyfluoroalkyl substance (PFAS) as reagent/solvent for side chain protecting group (PG) removal and peptide resin cleavage. Advances have been made towards
In modern ASIC verification, bridging the gap between IP-level and system-level test environments is a major challenge, especially as system-on-chip (SoC) complexity grows. This thesis presents a novel methodology leveraging the Accellera Portable Stimulus Standard to enable portable, reusable verification scenarios across these levels. The approach introduces a pre-runtime signal forcing mechanis
I detta examensarbete undersöks det hur modeintresserade unga kvinnor i åldrarna 20-29 år utformar sina köp- och försäljningspraktiker av kläder på digitala secondhand-plattformar under en ekonomisk kris. Uppsatsen syftar till att utveckla befintlig forskning genom att skapa förståelse för unga kvinnors secondhand-praktiker under en ekonomiskt osäker tid. Studien utgår från en kvalitativ metod och

Undersökningen syftar till att öka förståelsen för hur yrkesidentitet uttrycks och formas i ett framväxande yrke, samt vilka organisatoriska villkor som påverkar yrkesidentitetens utveckling. Studien bygger på en kvalitativ fallstudie av det framväxande yrket trafikstyrning, ett yrke som präglas av låg synlighet, inom en svensk lagerverksamhet. Genom tolv semistrukturerade intervjuer analyseras hu
Certain organic micropollutants and emerging contaminants are increasingly detected in wastewater effluents due to enhancement of detection techniques and new technological processes or household items being introduced. Some of them can accumulate in food chains and/or pose health risks for humans, wildlife and ecosystems. Often, these are very difficult or impossible to sufficiently remove using
Denna rapport handlar om processen för att ge en robotarm möjligheten att läsa och utföra rörelser från en G-kodfil. En sådan lösning kan ha betydande fördelar för robotarmarnas ägare och tillverkare, genom att möjliggöra nya arbetsuppgifter. Vårt mål var att implementera en konceptuell demonstration som visar att robotarmen kan programmeras för att läsa G-kod och utföra uppgifter liknande de som This paper is about the process of making a general purpose robot arm able to read and execute movements from a G-code file. A solution to this problem could prove beneficial to the owners and developers of the robot as it could create new possible work tasks for said robot. Our goal is to implement a proof of concept that shows that the robot could be made to read g-code and do tasks that a 3D-pr
