In this thesis a simulation model is presented that enables a comparison of different hybrid topologies, with respect to fuel consumption, emissions and performance. The obtained results stress the properties of the different topologies and form a foundation for the choice of hybrid topology. The simulation models included in this thesis are the result of collaboration with Petter Strandh at the D
Since 1989, the authors have given courses in research methodology, and these courses are now given at six venues in southern Sweden, as well as in Denmark. The course corresponds to half a year's full-time study, with half the time devoted to lectures and studies of literature, while the rest is spent on an individual project under supervision. To enable part-time study, the course extends over 1
Composition is a practice of key importance in software engineering. When real-time applications are composed it is necessary that their timing properties (such as meeting the deadlines) are guaranteed. The composition is performed by establishing an interface between the application and the physical platform. Such an interface does typically contain information about the amount of computing capac
Abstract– Neural grafting has over the last decade emerged as a possible tool for the substitution of damaged neurons in the central nervous system and for the promotion of symptomatic recovery after brain damage. Transplantation studies in the 6‐hydroxydopamine lesion rat model of Parkinson's disease were initiated in the late seventies. The first studies were based on the neuronal replacement pa
This report contains a master thesis by Stina Leghammar that was developed at Axis Communication in Lund Sweden. The thesis contains a development and design process of a modular sensor unit that will be mounted on light poles in urban areas. The sensors that will be included in the unit is a camera, a radar, a thermometer, an Plasmonic Air Quality Sensor and a microphone, all to detect and get da
Chiral perturbation theory is an efficient effective theory to describe meson-meson scattering at low energy. An effective theory naturally introduces low energy constants and they are used, for example, to solve the ultraviolet divergences. The aim of this master thesis is to focus on meson-meson scattering to find some theoretical bounds on the coupling constants, based mainly on arguments from
This thesis concerns a highly efficient nanoparticle-based capillary electrochromatography separation technique and its coupling with mass spectrometric detection. From chromatographic theory, it is well known that the separation efficiency increases with decreasing particle size. However, as the particle size decreases, the pressure required to push a liquid through the column also increases. Thi
Miljoner människor faller årligen offer för människohandel världen över och efterfrågan på framförallt kvinnor och barns sexuella tjänster är stor. Sverige har en unik lagstiftning mot köp av sexuella tjänster med nära koppling till och avskräckande effekt på människohandelsindustrin. För att möjliggöra mer nyanserade bedömningar, exempelvis i fall där den som erbjuder tjänsten är offer för männisEach year millions of people are victim of human trafficking and the demand for women’s and children's sexual services is particularly high. Sweden has a unique law criminalizing the purchase of sexual services, which is closely linked to the human trafficking industry. On July 1st, the maximum penalty for the purchase of sexual services will be raised to imprisonment for one year. This will a
Försoning är ett centralt tema i den kristna kyrkan. Denna studie indikerar en diskrepans mellan den teologiska förståelsen av försoning och den praxis som utövas under och efter en konflikt orsakad av olika uppfattningar om församlingens kultur eller identitet, särskilt i relation till vitaliseringsrörelser – förnyelse.I denna studie har etthundra konflikter eller potentiella konflikter som uppstReconciliation is a central theme in the Christian church. This study proceeds from a discrepancy between the theological understanding of reconciliation on the one hand and praxis in dealing with conflicts caused by different opinions about the culture or identity of the church on the other, especially in connection with vitalization (or renewal) movements.In this study, one hundred conflicts or
Popular Abstract in Swedish Käkförsedda havsborstmaskar (polychaeter) var artrika och vanliga i de tidigpaleozoiska haven. Maskarnas käkar, benämda scolecodonter i den vetenskapliga litteraturen, är mycket vanliga mikrofossil i sedimentära bergarter, främst kalkstenar av denna ålder. Mycket pekar därför på att de ofta utgjorde en väsentlig del av bottenfaunan. Trots mångfalden av scolecodonter harJawed polychaete annelid worms were abundant and diverse in the early Palaeozoic seas and their jaws (scolecodonts) are common microfossils in sedimentary rocks of that age. Despite their abundance, relatively little work has been focused on these fossils. One reason for this is that their taxonomy has been, and to some extent still is, in a state of disorder, mainly because of a parataxonomic tre
