This thesis analyzes the impact of immigrant entrepreneurship on factory ownership in Sweden between 1880-1910. During the Swedish industrial revolution, international migration increased due to significantly changing industries all around Europe. The purpose of this thesis was to evaluate whether immigrant entrepreneurs were more likely to become factory owners compared to native Swedes, in the g

En egenskap som är önskvärd när ett fordon är i bruk är låga ljudnivåer, vilket förknippas med hög kvalitet. Golvstrukturen i ett fordon består av ett flertal olika materiallager, exempelvis stålpaneler och mattor med ljudisolering. Genom ökad förståelse av hur ljudet sprids från golvet på fordon och in i kupén kan mer informerade designbeslut tas gällande utformning av golvpaneler och interiörmatAn attribute that is highly valued amongst vehicle customers is low interior-noise levels when a vehicle is in use. Much of the interior-noise is believed to stem from the vibrations of floor panels in vehicles. Sources to these vibrations can be, for instance, e-motors, engines and road–tire interaction, which in turn is translated into disturbing noise inside the cabin. Interior carpets placed o

Bakgrunden till detta arbete kom jag i kontakt med då jag under en längre period haft problem med skakningar under konserter. Skakningarna uppstår ofta när jag ska spela någon passage som är extra knepig och krävande eller när jag känner mig kall och ouppvärmd. Jag har tidigare provat metoder för att aktivera kroppen innan man ska spela för att det inte ska uppstå men det problem som kvarstår är aI came into contact with the background of this thesis because I had been struggling with shaking during performances. The shakes would often occur in a difficult passage or when that my hands were cold. I’ve previously tried methods to activate my body before a preformance to try to reduce the amount of shaking but what I’ve encountered is that it often tends to get worse as the concert goes alon

Syfte: Syftet med denna studie är att skapa en djupare förståelse för hur unga svenskar använder mobiltelefonen när de handlar i den fysiska modebutiken och hur detta påverkar konsumentens beteende. Teori: Arbetet utgår från en traditionell beskrivning av köpprocessen, men lägger fokus på delarna informationssökning och alternativutvärderingen. Denna modell fördjupas genom tidigare forskning om

Social media platforms have a significant impact on the world. Through connecting people over the globe, social media has resulted in multiple positive effects. However, the impact is not only beneficial. Social media platforms have also caused polarization and criminal uprisings, leading to events such as the Rohingya genocide in Burma. By tracking the discourse on social media channels, it is po

Thesis Purpose: The main purpose of this study is to investigate what ideals lead consumers produce through the adoption of subjective positions that they offer to consumers. Thus, the research aims to contribute to existing theoretical knowledge of the production of consumer subjectivities. Methodology: This present study adopts an ontological relativism position, followed by a social constructio

Architectural Technical Debt (ATD) is a challenge that many of today's companies aim to overcome. ATD concerns the overall structure and architecture of a software-intensive system and can be described as the unresolved shortcuts developers take under circumstances of e.g. time pressure and uncertain requirements. Planning and constructing a well-thought-out architecture is time consuming and

Att skapa en cirkulär ekonomi med hållbara produkter är en nödvändighet för dagens samhälle, särskilt kopplat till de klimatutmaningarna som vi har idag från bland annat överkonsumtion och dålig hantering vid slutet av produkternas livslängd. Projektet fokuserar på att ta fram en produkt som gjorts på återvunna material och att utmana tidigare materialbegränsningar. Detta har gjorts med en betoninCreating circular economies and sustainable products is a requirement in our contemporary society where a lot of environmental issues are due to overconsumption and unmanaged end of life. The project focuses on designing a product from recycled materials and pushing boundaries of material possibilities with a focus held on specifications in relation to recycled content, product durability and fina

Action recognition is a task in computer vision of inferring an action performed by a subject given an image or video. In this thesis we looked at how the performance of an action recognition network changed when introduced to new angles and how incorporating that data in the training affects this performance. A state-of-the-art skeleton extraction network HRNet\_w48+DARK was used together with a

This thesis analyses the energy consumption of the Italian and Swedish residential sector during the last two decades. It has two main purposes: (1) to test the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) hypothesis that stipulate a decoupling relation between environmental harm and economic growth and (2) to investigate on four factors that could explain such decoupling relation. The key factors are the ch

Alla levande varelser har metabolism och då även metaboliter, som är ämnen som produceras och konsumeras under metabolismen. En del av dessa produceras konstant, som när vi bryter ner mat vi äter eller när vi ska röra på oss. Det finns också metaboliter som vi inte har, men finns i till exempel svampar. De kallar vi sekundära metaboliter. De är viktiga för hur svamparna beter sig och interagerar mThis thesis investigated the regulation of patulin production in Penicillium expansum in relation to fungal global regulators as well as the cluster-specific binuclear zinc transcription factor (BZTF) patL in silico. It also explored the state of BZTF research in filamentous ascomycetes fungi, and questioned if results in Saccharomyces cerevisiae can be freely translated to other taxonomic groups.

I mitt examensarbete har jag arbetat med ett projekt i kommunen där jag bor, nämligen i Svedala. Här har det länge funnits en önskan om en attraktiv simhall från invånarnas sida, men ännu finns det ingen i kommunen. Därför tar jag chansen - på eget initiativ av mig som fristående arkitektstudent - att i mitt examensarbete gestalta ett hållbart badhus åt Svedalas invånare. Arbetet är upplagt på sIn my degree project, I have worked on a project with a sustainable swimming hall in the municipality of Svedala, where I live. Still, there is no swimming hall in the whole municipality, altough there has been an increased desire to create an attractive one that considers the needs of the residents. Therefore, I took the initiative - as an independent architecture student - to propose and design

Bygg- och industrisektorn är en av mest klimatpåverkande industrier, i form av växthusgasutsläpp. År 2018 bidrog denna sektor med mer än en femtedel av Sveriges totala växthusgasutsläpp. Samma sektor genererar ungefär en tredjedel av den totala avfallsmängden i Sverige. Regeringen hade som mål att fram till år 2020 återvinna eller återbruka 70 procent av icke-farligt material. I verkligheten landaThe construction and industrial sector are one of the most climate-affecting industries, regarding greenhouse gas emissions. In 2018 this sector contributed to more than a fifth of the total greenhouse gas emissions in Sweden. The same sector generates approximately one third of the total amount of waste. The government aimed to recycle or reuse 70 percent of non-hazardous materials by 2020. In re

Governments around the world have begun to adopt measures in support of electric vehicles. The supply push policies have been traditionally studied leaving the demand side innovation policy without much investigation. Therefore, policy makers lack institutional knowledge and policy experience. The demand side innovation policies have always been part of the public policy decisions but not part of

The thesis aims to develop knowledge of the physics and thermodynamics behind a nonlinearity in an air cooling system for an plastic extruder machine. To accomplish this, both nonlinear and linearized models were set up in Matlab and Simulink environments based on the laws of physics and thermodynamics. Simulations were run to achieve and analyze step responses, and different PI control structures

This thesis attempts to implement a library in pure Python for building real-time Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) systems. The library does this by employing nodes containing data transformation methods—filtering, classification, data acquisition, and more. These nodes are linked together to create pipelines of nodes in which data flows. Due to the asynchronous nature of the data flow the library w
