Geospatial data is becoming increasingly important as artificial intelligence develops rapidly, creating new opportunities in the field of Geographic Information Systems. The thesis investigates the possibility of establishing a method to automatically calibrate a network camera’s geolocation and heading direction by using a camera view image and its corresponding satellite image. The aim is to lo

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

This thesis investigates how the integration of post-combustion carbon capture (PCC) systems would affect combined heat and power (CHP) plant performance, using DWSIM, an open- source process simulation tool. A case study on a CHP plant in southern Sweden was conducted, with models simulated for both baseline and CCS-integrated operation. DWSIM proved accurate within a relative error of under 3 %

The aim achieved through this thesis was to ascertain how much the pollutions of black carbon (BC) from each European country systematically deviate from their expected values obtained by inverting a transport model. The model used is based on meteorological observations as well as black carbon values obtained in the past at different locations. It was achieved by fitting a linear regression model

Secondary metabolites produced from organisms are compounds that are not directly connected to the growth of organisms but that serve many important purposes for them in nature. Terpenes and terpenoids form a section of the secondary metabolites, produced from terpene synthase (TPS) enzymes. Fungal species are highly dependent on secondary metabolites and especially the terpenoid compounds for num

Stellar lithium abundances can help answer multiple unanswered questions within modern astrophysics. Lithium is fragile in comparison to other elements found in stellar atmospheres. Consequently, its abundance within the stellar atmosphere is depleted by different processes. Studying these lithium abundances gives insight into the evolution of the stars and the processes within their interiors. Th

This thesis used the Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) framework with the Product Environmental Footprint (PEF) methodology to evaluate the environmental performance of packaged fresh chicken. The study compared three modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) configurations, with the difference in their tray: a baseline tray and two mono-material alternatives. The LCA, with PEF guidelines where applicable, fo

Individuals with immigrant background generally perform less well in school than non-immigrants. Performing well in school may decrease the risk of substance use disorder (SUD). We investigated whether higher school performance is associated with a decreased risk of SUD in early adulthood among immigrants and non-immigrants and whether subsequent educational attainment and employment status partly

BACKGROUND: This study aimed to evaluate the prevalence of pathogenic/likely pathogenic cardiomyopathy variant carriers in a multiancestry US population and examine the risk of adverse clinical outcomes. METHODS: This retrospective cohort study included multiancestry US adults aged ≥18 years with sequencing data from the All of Us Research Program. Pathogenic/likely pathogenic variants in cardiomy

“This is not politics” A study of politicians views on their role in matters concerning The care of young persons act (LVU) The purpose of this study was to investigate what politicians who handles matters concerning exercise of authority towards individuals feel and experience in terms of the decision making process. The study is focused towards decision making in cases regarding The care of yo

Nuvarande reglering av säkerhet i lös egendom i Sverige bygger, med undantag för några lagstiftningsåtgärder, på rättspraxis och juridisk doktrin. Även om pantsättning är huvudmetoden för att ställa säkerhet, används i praktiken flera olika typer av säkerhetsrätter då lagstiftaren infört separata registersystem (t.ex. företagshypotek) och då äganderätt i praktiken ofta används som säkerhet (t.ex. Present Swedish law concerning security over movable assets is largely based on case law and legal literature, with some statutory intervention. Although the principal form of security is the possessory pledge, various security devices are used in practice, pursuant to legislative introductions of separate registration systems (e.g. floating charges) and the commercial use of ownership for securit

Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: Skåne är till stor del täckt av sedimentära, avlagrade bergarter t.ex. sandsten och kalksten, samt mycket yngre istidsavlagringar. Den kristallina berggrunden i Skåne utgör grunden för sedimenten och bildades huvudsakligen för mer än 1200 miljoner år sedan. Denna berggrund är bara synlig i de stora nordvästriktade horstar (åsar), som utgör ett markant drag i SkåThe Precambrian crystalline basement in Skåne only outcrops in the large NW striking Horsts that are roughly parallel to the Tornquist Zone. In the south-easternmost part of the Linderödsåsen Horst in SE Skåne, the Stenshuvud porphyritic granitoids previously considered to be Palaeoproterozoic volcanic rocks, have been recently dated to 1458 Ma. This indicates that these rocks are coeval with the

This thesis is about combining three archaeological themes; the interpretation of grave contexts, social identities and Iron Age jewellery has been given a place here. The aim was to discern which meanings and functions that can be connected to Migration Period bracteates in graves, and if so how they manifest in the context. Bracteates, small pendants dated to the Migration and Vendel periods, ha

Accessibility is something often taken for granted in our society, but it is a necessity for people with disabilities. Railway stations are a public place and are often a connecting point for several modes of transport. Design of railway stations in terms of accessibility for persons with disabilities is governed by several national and international governing documents. The purpose of this thesis
