This study arises from an existential concern that there is an obliviousness in academia with regards to the recent eruption of the transhumanist movement–an ideological force imbued with potentially calamitous socioecological consequences. With the support from recent claims that the transhumanist ideology exerts powerful influence on Western politics, this study seeks to investigate how the tran
Accurate quantitative protein analysis is crucial to identify proteins that are differentially abundant between samples, to provide clues about disease mechanisms or act as biomarkers. However, in most workflows, proteins are digested to peptides, and the resulting peptides are quantified as proxies for proteins. No consensus method for going from peptide to protein level quantification exist, and
The purpose of this thesis is to examine online sexism as a phenomenon on Danish news media platforms on Facebook. Research have shown a transgression of gendered violence online that is often produced on social media. Studies concerning Danish discourses and sexism is approached to give an understanding of the extent of online sexism. Limited research exists and the following study will provide i
Diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (dMRI) is a non-invasive method that provides micrometer or millimeter-scale tissue structural information. In order to further advance this technique to obtain more detailed microstructural information of biological tissues, developing new diffusion MRI method becomes a necessity. For the past few years, the multidimensional diffusion MRI technique has been d
This essay is concerned with whether the progressive aspect is overgeneralized by children, using it with stative verbs. The study targets the age interval 1 to 10 years and adults. The matter was investigated in several child corpora and adult corpora. The interval 1 to 5 years was covered by the Brown (1973b) corpus with Eve, Adam and Sarah. Data for the interval 6 to 10 years were obtained from
This thesis has two values. On one side, it aims at being a contribution to a betterunderstanding of the original concept of distributed economies. On the other side, it aspires atproviding useful decision criteria to those stakeholders that plan to locally develop a biogassystem.This thesis is developed from the Distributed Economies concept, which envisionsdecentralized, self-reliant and synergi
Parallel kinematik machines are nowadays an important branch of investigation in the robotics field. Its design allows for high speeds, accelerations and tool forces as well as makes them ideals for faster cycle times and high repeatability works. TAU is a parallel kinematic machine from ABB Company with three degrees of freedom. Therefore, it can be positioned anywhere of the workspace but not or
Objective: The objectives set out for this Master Thesis were: · How should a coffee machine for home use be designed and which features should the machine provide? · How should an experimental prototype be manufactured? · How should an experimental prototype be tested? Method: The thesis is written as a product development report and essentially follows the methods described by Ulrich and Eppinge
Formula Student is an international inter-universities competition about designing and building a single-seater racing car. One of the most important parts in a car is the suspension system, from the tires to the shock absorbers. This Master Thesis’ report goes through all these parts, looking to theory, different design options, the constraints (rules, economical, packaging, etc) and the final de
The use of conditional cash transfers (CCTs) as means of combating poverty has increased considerably the past decade. CCTs are safety net programs that transfer cash to targeted poor households, often to the mothers, on the condition that those households make pre-specified investments in the human capital of their children. The conditions are often criticised because the conditions only applies
The three major components of short-crust cookie dough are flour, sugar, and fat. Since high fat contents have been shown to have a major effect on the development of the gluten network, studying how these ingredients could affect the texture of the dough and the baked product became interesting. In addition, there are no existing methods on short crust cookie dough that allow predicting the chara
CO2 Catalysis has been studied with Planar Laser Induced Fluorescence (PLIF) in combination with a mass spectrometer for a small, 23 cubic centimeters, cube shaped flow reactor. Both catalysis processes with one and with two catalysts inside the reactor have been carried out and analysed. Some results have been visualised by images showing concentration, given by the PLIF signal, of CO2 inside the
The aggregation of amyloid-β peptide (Aβ) into amyloid fibrils and plaques is one culprit to Alzheimer’s disease pathogenesis. Once a small concentration of amyloid fibrils has formed through primary nucleation, a fibril-catalysed secondary nucleation takes over, leading to a close to exponential growth. Here, we have investigated the effect of five (J46, I48, J44, I68 and J7) out of twelve previo
Assimulo is a Python-based workbench for solving differential equations with the goal of making a multitude of solver meth- ods available through a higher-level interface. By generalizing the problem description, a user is able to apply any solver of their choice without having to redefine the original problem. Fol- lowing these guidelines, a set of wrappers have been developed to extend Assimulo

We waned to present a possible solution or new template for business plan called Market value plan.
We have conducted a case study on Trelleborg AB to examine how entrepreneurial the company is. We used a model called "entrepreneurial orientation (EO) with five dimensions that should be considered when striving to be entrepreneurial. The goal of being entrepreneurial in this thesis is achieving organic growth. The contingency of the case company determines the generalizability of the findin
