During the production of Axis's cameras, the optics modules have to do a number of tests and calibrations that are performed in different test stations. The test and calibration sequence differs between different models. This has so far been done manually by having operators move the units between test stations. However, Axis are planning to automate the procedure by having an industrial robot
In the last ten years, there has been an ongoing cultural conflict between the nationalist political party the Sweden Democrats (Sverigedemokraterna) and a big group of active Swedish folk musicians. The conflict concerns the definition of ’folk music’ and the question if the genre is to be considered as an inherently more ‘Swedish’ form of cultural expression than other types of music. The Sweden
At present, in potato starch industries, not only starch is extracted from the process but even proteins and fibers are recovered as they are economically valuable. Unfortunately, the process used for protein recovery can only partially recover protein from the potato fruit juice (PJ), while the reaming PJ is concentrated using an evaporator and is later on used as fertilizers. Potato starch indus
Predictable and repeatable execution is the key to ensuring functional correctness for real-time systems. Scheduling algorithms are designed to generate schedules that repeat after a certain amount of time has passed. However, this repeatability is also a vulnerability when side-channel attacks are considered. Side-channel attacks are attacks based on information gained from the implementation of
It has been stated that transgender youth are at higher risk of violence, physical and mental health problems than other youth. High schools has the goal that equality and respect towards all students should be excercised. The strategy to attain this goal is to use normative criticism as approach in courses tought by teachers and generally around the school. This study aims to investigate how the
I grupparbeten förekommer ofta ett fenomen som kallas social loafing - att gruppmedlemmar gör mindre än de ska. Denna uppsats har som syfte att undersöka attityder till en person som ägnar sig åt social loafing, och huruvida dessa attityder ändras beroende på vilken förklaring som sedan ges, samt om det finns ett samband mellan dessa attityder och personlighet och grad av need for cognition. MetodSomething that will often occur in group work is that group members do less work than they should; a phenomenon called social loafing. The purpose of this paper is to examine attitudes to a social loafer, and if those attitudes changes depending on which explanation is given, and also if there is a connection between the attitudes and personality and degree of need for cognition. The method that w
Abstract The aim of the thesis was to examine whether or not the elicited imitation test can be used as a valid tool for measuring developmental sequences of grammatical structures in the production of L2 Swedish derived from the Processability Theory (PT, Pienemann, 1998). The thesis aimed to answer the following questions: Will the participants follow the predicted implicational pattern of the d
Popular science summary: Having problems with statistics? Try Bayesian! While many of us are afraid of the abstruse concepts and annoyed by a lot of limitations in classical statistics, Bayesian methods provides user-friendly way to do statistics. They are intuitive, explicit and have a wide range of applications. In conservation planning, different sources of evidence need to be integrated to
The present thesis is concerned with the marker -te iru in Japanese, which has been thought to have the interpretations progressive, resultative, habitual, perfect (or experiential), and progressive through iteration, or any given subset of these interpretations according to various scholars. The matter is a complicated one, with particularly the perfect interpretation proving to be difficult to e
The development of 6G network management technology relies on the solution of large-scale combinatorial optimization (CO) problems on graphs. Many of these problems are NP-hard and must be solved approximately in practice. Despite decades of research and development, classical heuristics and approximation algorithms still struggle with accuracy and the computational demands of scaling to large pro
The purpose was that from previous research and the children's own stories illustrate how stepchildren experienced their lives in stepfamily, also examine if the children had mutual experiences and common patterns. Questions: What was it like for a child to live in a stepfamily? Could one see a pattern in a stepchild's describing life in a stepfamily? How the children relateted to all pare
BACKGROUND: The early detection of bacterial meningitis is crucial for successful outcome. Heparin-binding protein, a potent inducer of increased vascular permeability, is released from activated neutrophils in severe sepsis.OBJECTIVE: In this study we investigated whether heparin-binding protein levels in cerebrospinal fluid could be used as a diagnostic marker for acute bacterial meningitis.DESI
The increasing demand for energy-efficient and sustainable construction necessitates the need for building envelope designs that effectively balance moisture safety with sustainability. Improper moisture management in building envelopes can lead to severe consequences, including construction damage, decreased energy performance, and health risks associated with microbial growth. For instance, wate
This dissertation consists of four self-contained empirical papers. Three of the papers rely on the usage of Swedish administrative data, while the fourth one is an experimental study. In these papers, I study economic behavior and preferences along with their implications for mental health. In the first paper, we investigate how the gender composition in one’s classroom in primary school affects
Background: Participants in epidemiological cohorts may not be representative of the full invited population, limiting the generalizability of prevalence and incidence estimates. We propose that this problem can be remedied by exploiting data on baseline participants who refused to participate in a re-examination, as such participants may be more similar to baseline non-participants than what base
Creosote has been used in Sweden as a wood preservative in buildings since the 19th century. These buildings can function as workplaces, homes, and cultural buildings to which the public has access. Creosote contains polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) which are well known carcinogens. To understand exposure and risks in an indoor environment, it is important to determine air levels of parent P
Background In addition to the diagnostic accuracy of imaging methods, patient-reported satisfaction with imaging methods is important. Objective To report a secondary outcome of the prospective international multicenter Imaging Study in Advanced ovArian Cancer (ISAAC Study), detailing patients’ experience with abdomino-pelvic ultrasound, whole-body contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT), and w
Sverige framhålls ofta som ett föregångsland gällande personlig assistans (PA) och mänskliga rättigheter. Forskning visar dock att bedömningen av rätten till PA styrs av en medicinsk förståelse av funktionshinder och av ekonomiska snarare än funktionshinderpolitiska mål. Nedskärningar har medfört att antalet med statlig assistansersättning har minskat. Syftet med artikeln är att belysa de motstridSweden is often highlighted as a pioneering country in terms of personal assistance (PA) and human rights. However, research shows that the assessment of PA is guided by a medical understanding of disability and by austerity ratherthan by disability policy. Furthermore, the number of people with state-funded PA has decreased. The purpose of the article is to illuminate the contradictions that char
Importance: Family and genetic approaches have traditionally been used to evaluate our diagnostic concepts. Using a novel method, the family genetic risk score (FGRS), can we validate the genetic architecture of major affective and psychotic disorders in a national Swedish sample? Objective: To determine whether FGRSs, calculated for the entire Swedish population, can elucidate the genetic relatio
