Having good balance is a facilitating factor in the performance of everyday activities. Good balance is also essential in various sport activities in order to both get results and prevent injury. A common measure of balance is postural sway, which can be measured both antero-posteriorly and medio-laterally. There are several companies marketing wristbands whose intended function is to improve bala

The test of Ng (A simple test for nonstationarity in mixed panels, Journal of Business & Economic Statistics 26, 113–126, 2008) is one of the few that enables general inference regarding the proportion of non-stationary units in panel data. The current paper furthers the investigation of Ng (2008) in two directions. First, the existing sequential limit analysis is generalized to a very flexibl

Globalization discourse is deeply flawed in its very conception, expressing a gratuitous assumption of the emergence of a new era that is discontinuous with the past and whose conflicts are primarily the product of those who resist this development: nationalists, racists, localists. This discourse is itself an ideological product of a cosmopolitan elite identity that has emerged (again) in recent

The drive of using more renewable material has increased the interest in timber bridges. This makes it more interesting in looking in to new ways of constructing timber bridges. Most timber bridges for road traffic are using an arch with a hanging deck suspended from the arch using vertical hangers. This master thesis has looked at the possibility of using a system (developed for steel arch bridge

This master's thesis investigates in what capacity a typical hand-prosthesis classification ANN (Artificial Neural Network) can be deployed on a microcontroller unit. A working, implemented interface is presented along with extra scripts, applications and functions for easy training and testing. Performance of different architectures as well as model-conversion tools are evaluated and compared

The Earth’s climate has always been changing, since the origin of our planet. The rate of change is now rapidly increasing in a substantial scale, leading to new challenges. The average temperature on Earth has risen 0.9 degrees since the 19th century and the oceans have absorbed a substantial amount of heat and carbon dioxide, believed leading to ocean acidification killing the marine life. Ice s

Although states have begun to regulate influencer activities in areas such as advertising and consumer protection, that is not the case in tax law. This research analyses various Tax Authority’s guidelines on the matter and concludes that the rules already in place in most jurisdictions are applied to influencers’ activities. This demonstrates that a tax system with solid foundations can adapt to

Everything we see in nature shows how the environment influences them from both inside and outside, for example, appearance and inner structure. As Charles Darwin’s theory of natural selection, specific behavioural and physical adaptations that are the outcome of natural selection. [1] The outer appearance is a visible reflection of how environment changed while the inner structure is the organism

The thesis focuses on designing and simulating an 8-bit high-speed fully differential pipelined Analog to Digital Converter (ADC) in the 65nm Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor (CMOS) technology by using the software Cadence Virtuoso. The aim is to increase the operation speed of the ADC for communication systems without reducing the performance, in the meantime, the low power consumption and

3D city models are valuable tools for visualization and analytical purposes in the urban environment. A popular format for city models is CityGML, an open data model that can be used for storage and exchange of 3D city models. However, using city models based on CityGML has appeared to be a challenge as there is a limited number of software applications that are able to read them. Complexity in Ci

Användningen av smarta telefoner och områden i vilka smarta telefonlösningar erbjuds, har ökat drastiskt det senaste decenniet. Det område som däremot inte har varit lika benäget att anta detta tillvägagångssätt är restaurangbranschen. Målet med denna studie syftar till att undersöka hur villiga användare är att anpassa sig till detta tillvägagångssätt och beskriver de krav och önskemål av en sådaThe use of smart phones and the areas in which smart phone solutions are provided have increased immensely over the past decade. However, one area which has not been as keen of adopting the smart phone approach is the restaurant area. This study aims to investigate the amenability of users to adapt to this approach and outlines the requirements and desires of such a product. It also presents a sol

Augmented Reality (AR) är på uppgång och många företag lägger miljontals dollar i branschen. Både Google och Apple har nyligen släppt sina egna AR SDK’er som kommer att köras på miljontals enheter inom en snar framtid. AR är verkligen fascinerande och har sagts vara nästa miljard-industri. Målet med denna avhandling är att undersöka vad som är möjligt med dagens AR för mobila enheter och undersökaAugmented Reality (AR) is on the rise and a lot of companies put millions of dollars into the industry. Both Google and Apple have recently released their own AR SDKs that will run on millions of devices in the near future. AR is really fascinating and have been said to be the next multi-billion-dollar industry. The goal of this thesis is to explore what is possible with today’s AR and what are th

This Master’s Thesis contributes with a rich description of normative control as a social process, through the illustration and interpretation of the practical efforts and sense-making that surround it. These contributions are made possible through an ethnographic case study at a medium-sized, fast-growing dotcom company with a distinct and salient corporate culture and normative control efforts.

The ever-increasing interest in electrical vehicles around the world creates a strong developing curve for demand for batteries in electrical vehicles. Meaning, the batteries needs to be able to function better and for a longer time without being destroyed in the process. At the same time the batteries also needs to be rechargeable to not unnecessarily pollute the environment. A battery management

Outnorth, a large Swedish Outdoor e-commerce retailer, is experiencing issues with lacking supplier performance, such as late deliveries and insufficient information. Concurrently they strive to strengthen their relationships with suppliers. In this study, a supplier performance measurement system, SPMS, is created to help Outnorth deal with supplier issues and facilitate communication and relatio

This thesis strives to tell a story of archaeological knowledge production at the Uppåkra site in Scania, southern Sweden, through focusing upon the actual work on site. Ethnographic study of archaeologists in the field brings the thesis into contact with sites and material practices as well as literary sources and accounts of archaeology and methodological problems. Following these leads the thes

This thesis addresses a challenge in continuous high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC): ensuring reliable, timely supply of buffer solutions. As biopharmaceutical production increasingly moves toward continuous operation, buffer management becomes critical, since chromatography requires multiple buffer types with precise compositions for washing, elution, equilibration, and regeneration. In

Alten AB has a technology demonstator in the form of a motorized and camera equipped large scale labyrinth game. The ball position is controlled by a ABB industrial PLC connected with Android tablets for user interface and a camera as a sensor for the ball position. This thesis demonstrates the ability to place a wide angle camera inside the cabinet, correcting the lens distortion caused by the wi
