Metal cutting technology plays an important role in the automotive and aeronautic sectors, both of whichare important for the Swedish economy. Both make use of traditional grey cast iron and difficult-to-machine materials like titanium alloys and compacted graphite iron. The tools used to machine thesematerials wear at varying rates depending on factors such as contact temperature, pressure, and t
Inhalation therapy treating severe infectious disease is among the more complex and emerging topics in controlled drug release. Micron-sized carriers are needed to deposit drugs into the lower airways, while nano-sized carriers are of preference for cell targeting. Here, we present a novel and versatile strategy using micron-sized spherical particles with an excellent aerodynamic profile that diss
Metal cutting is physically defined by a tool separating a chip by developing a stagnation point after the work material has passed a shear plane. This distinguishes the method group metal cutting or machining from shearing and wedging processes. The development of the stagnation point is central to the functioning of a metal cutting process. The stagnation point and its behavior has a great influ
Deciphering the genetic basis of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels may improve their utility for prostate cancer (PCa) screening. Using genome-wide summary statistics from 95,768 PCa-free men, we conducted a transcriptome-wide association study (TWAS) to examine impacts of genetically predicted gene expression on PSA. Analyses identified 41 statistically significant (p < 0.05/12,192 = 4.10×10
Rapid deforestation has been well-documented in Colombia after the 2016 peace agreement with FARC. While many analysis using remote sensing identify land cover change, structural connectivity variables are less studied for understanding landscape transformation. In this work, we used data from the Landsat archive from 2011 to 2021, the Continuous Change Detection and Classification algorithm (CCDC
In December 2019, news came from China about a mysterious virus that infected people in the Chinese city of Wuhan. During the following weeks the disease spread further to a number of countries all over the world (DW 2019). The new disease turns out to be very dangerous and highly contagious. While the pandemic spread and people died disinformation started to spread in the media, social media, and
Sweden is a state governed by the rule of law, and is based on many different principles in order to ensure a functioning justice system. An important prin-ciple is that the rulings from the courts should be adamant, also known as the principle of firmness. The ruling of the court shall stand when it has gained legal force and this is also known as the negative legal force of a judgment. The human
Can states by introducing taxes, change the way their citizens consume? Can states tax away the sins of their population? In this following paper, I have examined varies excise taxes in Denmark. More specificly I have analyzed Denmark’s tobacco- and alcoholtax and their failed sugar tax. How effective are they and what made the sugar tax fail? What are the correlation between the taxes and what ar
Recently, the urbanization in China caused much social problem in China, and one of the distinctive features of urbanization is the increasing population density. This thesis aims to discover the relationship between population density and fertility in China by choosing Xinjiang region as an example, other determinants of fertility in Xinjiang region were also examined, such as average income, emp
During the years 1951–2002, an amount of 2600–5000 tons of PFAS was released into the environment. The widespread occurrence of PFAS substances can have negative consequences for microbial species and communities within ecosystems, which is ex-pected to have negative effects also for higher trophic levels. Therefore, the purpose of this literature study was to compile information on which identifi
Denna uppsats undersöker hur systemet för ersättning av rättegångskostnader i förvaltningsprocessen förhåller sig till rätten till en rättvis rättegång. Denna uppsats undersöker också vilka möjligheter som finns för att få ersättning för rättegångskostnader i förvaltningsprocessen genom en separat skadeståndsta-lan i allmän domstol. För att svara på frågeställningarna tillämpas rättsdogmatisk metoThis thesis examines the system for reimbursing legal costs in the administra-tive law proceedings and how it relates to the right to a fair trial. It also inves-tigates the possibilities for obtaining reimbursement of legal costs in adminis-trative proceedings through a separate damages claim in a general court. To address the research questions, a legal dogmatic method is applied, with a signif
The main purpose of any Customer Relationship Management(CRM) system of any customer-focused organization is to build new and retain old relationships with its customers.Such CRM systems provide customer data so that its users or top management can make correct decisions in order to improve organization’s performance. Nowadays, advanced analytics in the form of Business Intelligence (BI) can be us
The purpose of this study is to examine how social service handles incorrect information about them that is spreading on social media. This study is based on a qualitative method. In order to achieve the purpose of this work, the focus has been on the unit of child protection services and seven social workers have been interviewed. The study shows that social workers only handle incorrect informat
Medierna spelar en viktig roll i hur vi formar våra värderingar och uppfattningar om omvärlden. Mediernas sätt att framställa ett fenomen är i hög grad avgörande för vårt sätt att förstå det. Främlingsfientlighet och rasism är ämnen som har fått stor betydelse på senare tid då extremhögern har varit på frammarsch runt om i Europa. Det är därför viktigt att studera vilken roll medierna har i detta
Emissions of greenhouse gases through human activities, predominantly in sectors such as energy production, land use, lifestyle, and production, are continuing to warm the planet to unsustainable degrees. An important way to regain control of the situation is a worldwide adjustment in the way we produce energy, from fossil fuels to sustainable and renewable energy sources. An example of such a ren
Denna kandidatuppsats fokuserar på påverkan som E-lärande och lösenordsstyrkemätare (LSM) har för att förbättra lösenordsstyrkan bland universitetsstudenter. Syftet med studien är att utforska hur dessa verktyg separat och i kombination påverkar användares lösenordsstyrka. Studien använder en kvasi-experimentell metod för att analysera hur dessa olika interventioner, i form av E-lärande och LSM, p
This study has been conducted to show the meaning of how background factors and attitudes affect the usage of chemical products in urban gardens in Lund. This was performed with the use of a questionnaire that was sent out to two Facebook groups, Lunds Trädgårdssällskap and another private group oriented towards people who live in or come from Lund. From an environmental perspective, this study is
