The Swedish railway system has a lack of capacity, which has caused major delays and problems with punctuality. One of the reasons is the increase in rail traffic over the recent decades. To reduce the pressure on existing railways, the Swedish government is planning to construct the first Swedish high-speed rail link. Connecting Stockholm, Göteborg and Malmö with high-speed trains. A high-speed r

Purpose: The purpose of this thesis it to investigate if and how branding in public transportation can influence sustainable consumer behaviour. It is of interest to analyse the influence of different branding concepts (green, love and technology) on attitude towards public transportation, the intention to use and recommend it. Methodology: The study was of quantitative nature. Three brands for a
I detta examensarbete åtar jag mig uppgiften att analysera bevisteori gällande svensk straffprocessrätt utifrån ett kunskaps- och vetenskapsteoretiskt perspektiv. Härvid försöker jag först besvara frågan om vilka idéer eller föreställningar om kunskap som kommer till uttryck i bevisteorin. Jag gör dock inte anspråk på någon uttömmande uppräkning av dessa, utan vill snarare ge en översikt över ett In this graduate thesis I set out to analyze Swedish evidence theory (as it pertains to procedural law in criminal cases) using epistemology and philosophy of science. In doing so, I have attempted to answer question of which ideas or concepts, borrowed from these two disciplines, can be found in Swedish evidence theory, whether explicit or implicit. On this account, it has not been my aim to give
Denna studie fokuserar på en nästan 1700 år lång sjösedimentsekvens från Hässeldala Port i centrala Blekinge, sydöstra Sverige. Den omfattar övergångsperioden mellan pleistocen och holocen, eller mer precist eventen GI-1a och GS-1 samt början av den holocena epoken i iskärnorna, vilket motsvarar de sydsvenska pollenzonerna sen allerød till tidig preboreal. För att studera den senglaciala klimatutvDuring the past 118000 years Earth has undergone several climatic changes. The most recent major climatic change took place almost 20000 years ago. It was the cooling event, of the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM), also known as the Ice Age. During this event almost one third of the Northern Hemisphere was covered by ice. Most likeley it was triggered by the change in the water circulation pattern of th
Bildgivning av lungor har länge varit och är än ett viktigt forskningsområde eftersom lungkomplikationer är en stor anledning till sjuklighet och dödlighet över hela världen. Med den fortsatta forskningen och de förbättrade avbildningarna ökar kunskapen, vilken bidrar till förbättrad sjukvård. I dagsläget utförs en stor mängd lungavbildningar med synkrotronljuskällor. Dessa är ljusstarka röntgenkäIntroduction: Lung imaging with synchrotron light sources is currently a widely studied field. The image resolution and quality are remarkable and the level of detail possible to study the smallest structures, the alveoli, of the lungs cannot be obtained by any other non-invasive imaging modality with the current technology. The most common and useful type of lung imaging with brilliant light sour
Den här rapporten siktar till att förklara hur och varför organisationer väljer att implementera eller inte implementera RPA inom HR samt hur påverkan upplevs i det dagliga HR-arbetet. Rapporten genomfördes genom intervjuer med tre olika HR-chefer och två HR-konsulter på globala/nationella organisationer. Totalt bedrevs fem semistrukturerade intervjuer. HR-chefernas funktion var interna beslutsfatThis paper aims to explain how and why organizations choose to implement or not implement RPA within HR and how it affects the daily work of the HR department. The paper was conducted through interviewing three kinds of HR-managers and two HR-consultants at global/national business organizations. In total five semi-structured interviews were held. The HR-manager's functions were internal decis
År 1999 kriminaliserade Sverige köp men inte försäljning av sexuell tjänst som första land i världen. Uppsatsen syftar till att förklara motiven bakom förbudet, utvärdera motivens uppfyllande genom kriminaliseringen och analysera kravet på dubbel straffbarhet i relation till motiven. Detta görs genom en rättsdogmatisk respektive en rättsanalytisk metod. Uppsatsen intar framförallt ett kritiskt perThe year of 1999 Sweden was the first country in the world to criminalise the purchase but not the sale of sexual services. The purpose of the essay is to explain the motives behind the legislation, to evaluate the fulfilling of the motives through the legislation and to analyze the dual criminality requirement in relations to the motives. This is done through a legal dogmatic method and a legal a
I denna avhandling undersöker vi möjligheten att använda Siamesiska Neurala Nätverk för att detektera röstförändringar bland patienter som lider av återkommande stämbandscancer. I samarbete med VoiceDiagnostic Sweden AB och läkare vid Lunds Universitetssjukhus konstruerades modeller för att mäta avstånd mellan olika röstinspelningar, samt avstånd mellan mindre segment av röstinspelningar. De resulIn this thesis, we investigate the possibility of using Siamese Neural Networks to detect voice changes in the voices of patients su↵ering from a recurrence of their vocal cord cancer. In collaboration with VoiceDiagnostic Sweden AB and physicians at Lunds’s University Hospital, models were trained on audio features in order to learn distance measures between recordings, and segments of recordings
INTRODUCTION: Child stunting, a measure of malnutrition, is a major global health challenge affecting 148.1 million children in 2022. Global stunting rates have declined from 47.2% in 1985 to 22.3% in 2022; however, trends before the mid-1980s are unclear, including whether child stunting was previously prevalent in current high-income countries (HICs). We conducted a systematic review of child gr
Characterizing the effect of pesticides on pollinators is essential in the strive to protect biodiversity while maintaining efficient food production. Metabolomics offers detailed insight into the physiological response to pesticides. The impact of pre-dissection and dissection methodology on the metabolic response remains largely unknown, as does their possible effect on the measured metabolic re
Most part of Iran is arid and semi-arid; thus in most parts of the region, groundwater is the only source of water. This research presents a method based on a spatial multi-criterion evaluation (SMCE) for designing possible sites of underground dams and ranks them according to their suitability. The method was tested for siting underground dams in the Alborz Province, Iran. At first, screening alg
OBJECTIVE: To examine the cross-sectional associations between regional tau, β-amyloid (Aβ), and cortical thickness and neuropsychological function across the preclinical and clinical spectrum of Alzheimer disease (AD). METHODS: We included 106 participants from the Swedish Biomarkers for Identifying Neurodegenerative Disorders Early and Reliably (BioFINDER) study, of whom 33 had preclinical AD (A
Lingonberries (LB) have been shown to have beneficial metabolic effects, which is associated with an altered gut microbiota. This study investigated whether the LB-induced improvements were associated with altered gut- and neuroinflammatory markers, as well as cognitive performance in ApoE−/− mice fed high-fat (HF) diets. Whole LB, as well as two separated fractions of LB were investigated. Eight-
BACKGROUND: Beans are rich and inexpensive sources of proteins and carbohydrates around the world, but particularly in developing countries. However, many legume varieties are still underutilized. In this study, physical characteristics of the seeds of three Phaseolus lunatus cultivars were characterized. Also, the chemical composition and starch digestibility in the cooked beans were assessed. RE
Sweet proteins are an unexploited resource in the search for non-carbohydrate sweeteners mainly due to their low stability towards heating. Variants of the sweet protein monellin, with increased stability, were derived by an in vivo screening method based on the thermodynamic linkage between fragment complementation and protein stability. This approach depends on the correlation between mutational
