Anaerobic digestion is widely used for the treatment of industrial wastewater for its cost benefits effects and potential production of renewable energy. Therefore, industries/industrial plants are installing and developing their wastewater treatment plant with this method for treating the discharged wastewater to get renewable energy source for the production of heat and electricity. To investiga
En fredsprocess i Syrien måste garantera trygghet och säkerhet för alla, vilket inte minst inne-bär att ta i beaktande de särskilda säkerhetshot som kvinnor står inför i egenskap av att vara kvinnor. Denna undersökning kommer att granska FNs säkerhetsråds resolutioner och Action Group for Syrias och International Syria Support Groups fredsplaner från 2015 och 2016 som har till syfte att skapa fredA peace process in Syria must ensure safety and security for all, which means taking into con-sideration the specific security threats that women face on account of being women. This study uses Teun van Dijk’s critical discourse analysis to examine UN Security Council Reso-lutions and Action Group for Syria’s and International Syria Support Group’s peace plans from 2015 and 2016 to see whether, an
This paper has examined whether men and women, charged with physical assault in 2019, have been treated equally by the Swedish district court in their sanction assessment. By doing a quantitative content analysis the content of judgements, handed down by the district courts of Stockholm, Gothenburg and Malmö, have been categorized and quantified. The information was categorized by the variables th
The relevance of grassroots innovations for higher citizen participation in the sustainability transition of electricity systems has been progressively increasing. Renewable energy cooperatives are grassroots innovations that envision an electricity system where citizens become producers and consumers of electricity from renewable sources instead of being dominated by big energy companies dependen
The construction industry has been criticized several times for failing to achieve the same productivity as other industries. BIM (Building Information Model/Modeling) is a revolutionary technology, and with a modern work method BIM has the ability to change the construction industry. The traditional paper-based information is changing into a virtual environment. A BIM- model does not automaticall
We study how small, fine-tuned generative large language models (LLMs) can moderate free-text search queries for surveillance video systems. Four open models, Llama 3.2 1B, Llama 3.2 3B, Qwen 2.5 0.5B, and 1.5 B, are trained on six subtasks: safety judgement, problem detection, target detection, span detection, safety explanation, and rephrase. The training combines a public toxicity set with abou
Undersökning av inomhusmiljön i Bostadshus i Kurdistan med förslag på förbättringar Av Zahir Rashid Ibrahim Sammanfattning Den varma sommarsäsongen i Kurdistan är mycket lång och omgivningstemperaturen är cirka 45 ˚C. Byggnader kyls ner med luftkonditioneringssystem på sommaren och värms upp med eldrivna eller oljedrivna värmesystem på vintern. Oljedrivna placeras oftast i vardagsrummet Examination of indoor environment in dwellings in Kurdistan with suggestions on improvements By Zahir Rashid Ibrahim Summary The hot summer season in Kurdistan is very long and the ambient temperature is about 45 ˚C. Buildings are cooled by air conditioning systems in the summer and heated with electric or oil-fired heating systems in winter. Oil-driven are usually placed in the living roo
The variation in length of antlers in deer (Cervidae) has been attributed predominantly to body sizes and the intensity of sexual selection. However, the diversity in antler morphology goes beyond lengths. Using a time-calibrated phylogeny of Cervidae and a newly collected data of antler lengths and volumes, we investigated the evolution of antler morphology within a multi-variate phylogenetic com
The widespread adoption of drones has presented new requirements for reliable localization and tracking systems. For this reason acoustic sensing has become an area of growing interest for a passive and cost-effective solution. However, process- ing large amounts of microphone data in real time presents significant hardware challenges. This thesis studies two different types of signal channelizati
I denna rapport analyseras koncept för tandborstar med låg vikt och kort tillverkningstid. Förhoppningen är att låg vikt och kort tillverkningstid kan leda till positiva effekter såsom lägre koldioxidfotavtryck, mindre materialanvändning och en mer kostnadseffektiv tillverkning än vad som gäller för dagens tandborstar. Med hjälp av Ulrich & Eppingers produktutvecklingsprocess har flera olika kThe work presented in this report investigates how a toothbrush can be designed to be lightweight and at the same time fast to manufacture. If a low weight and short manufacturing time can be obtained, several other advantages can be had, such as reduced carbon dioxide footprint, less need of material, and more cost-efficient manufacturing. With the help of Ulrich and Eppinger’s product developmen
European Spallation Source (ESS) är en världsledande anläggning för forskning med hjälp av neutroner, under konstruktion i Lund. För att producera neutroner för sådan forskning krävs kraftigt accelererade protoner. Sådan acceleration måste utföras mycket exakt och säkert, och för detta krävs exakta kalibreringsmetoder. I detta projekt har en undersökning utförts huruvida maskininlärning kan vara tThe European Spallation Source, currently under construction in Lund, Sweden, will be the world's brightest neutron source. It is driven by a linear accelerator designed to accelerate a beam of protons with 62.5 mA, 2.86 ms long pulses, working at 14 Hz. The final section of its normal-conducting front-end consists of a 39 m long drift tube linac divided into five tanks, designed to accelerate
Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka hur åtalade kvinnor beskrivs i domar vid Lunds Tingsrätt, samt om dessa beskrivningar kan tänkas förklaras och motiveras med hjälp av kriminologiska teorier. En annan avsikt med uppsatsen var att efter sammanställningen av vårt analysmaterial föra en diskussion om rätten kan tänkas sända ut icke åsyftade verkningar till samhället rörande framställningen av
This paper is very much inspired by an ongoing process in the Swedish court system. According to Unibet, an online betting company, the Swedish law on lotteries conflicts with EC law. Therefore, Unibet has brought an action against the Swedish state seeking, firstly, a declaration that it has the right, pursuant to Article 49 EC, to promote its gaming and betting services in Sweden and is not prev
C3 and C5 convertases are central stages of the complement cascade since they converge the different initiation pathways, augment complement activation by an amplification loop and lead to a common terminal pathway resulting in the formation of the membrane attack complex. Several complement inhibitors attenuate convertase formation and/or accelerate dissociation of convertase complexes. Functiona
Preparing travel time data can be a time-consuming process, which greatly limits the flexibility of transport simulation models. In the current paper, we present an approach to integrate a routing engine locally in an existing modeling framework, hence enabling to dynamically calculate travel times in the constructed emergency medical services (EMS) simulation models. This integration eliminates t
The Earth System Governance open science conferences are an environmental-political happening in which researchers from all over the world present their studies. Approximately 400 researchers submit an abstract each conference, half of which are accepted. The purpose of this thesis is to investigate which variables increase or decrease an abstract’s probability of getting accepted. The Focus here
Gelatin coating of brain implants is known to provide considerable benefits in terms of reduced inflammatory sequalae and long-term neuroprotective effects. However, the mechanisms for gelatin's protective role in brain injury are still unknown. To address this question, cellular and molecular markers were studied with quantitative immunohistochemical microscopy at acute (<2. hours, 1, 3. days), i
