With climate change as the main driving force, the energy system is currently undergoing changes. Both the share of renewable resources used to produce electricity and the overall electrification is increasing. A way to handle the resulting challenges from more intermittent electricity production is by the implementation hydrogen technology. Hydrogen technology can help balance the electricity net
The baobab is among the commonly consumed wild fruits found in the semi-arid regions of sub-Saharan Africa. It has a wide application in food systems and folk medicine and has an advantage of surviving even in harsh environmental conditions. While the fruit pulp is packed with a lot of essential nutrients and has gained much interest in recent past on the international market as a healthy ‘superfo
Corporate Social Responsibility is today a recognised concept companies have to act on in order to meet the stakeholders’ increased demands. An increased environmental debate in the society as well as increased regulations requires companies to focus on environmental questions to a greater extent than before. Companies need to control their environmental performance and focus on their significant
Track switches are vital parts in the railway construction. They meet an important feature when planing and stearing the traffic flow through them to increase capacity. To ensure functionality during winter they have since the 50- century systematically installed switch heating with different technical solutions but with the same objective, to keep the moving parts on the switch free from snow and
Problem Statement: The project started with a request from IKEA to contribute more to the environment. The task for this project, issued by IKEA, was to create a concept for a free-standing indoor storage unit for recyclable waste. The unit should hold at least seven different types of waste: cardboard, plastic, paper, metal, glass, deposit waste and some smaller hazardous waste, such as batteries
Purpose: Recent developments in external radiotherapy and its utilization with artificial in- telligence (AI) enables advanced treatment plans for a range of different disease sites. By adapting to the anatomy of the day, target coverage can be ensured while sparing more healthy tissue. The purpose of this project was to study the feasibility and benefits of daily cone beam computed tomography (CB
Corona pandemin började som en hälsokris. Det dröjde inte länge förrän krisen även förvandlades till en ekonomisk kris. En kris som drabbat oss alla. Allt från oss människor, till stora företag, internationellt som nationellt. På grund av pandemin och dess ekonomiska konsekvenser för företagen i Sverige, så har regeringen lanserat ett antal olika företagsstöd vars syfte ska vara att lindra de ekThe Corona pandemic began as a health crisis, but it soon also turned into a crisis for the economy. Affecting all layers of society, from individuals to big companies, both nationally and internationally. Because of the pandemic and its economic consequences for businesses in Sweden, the Swedish government introduced a number of support programs aimed at reducing the negative effects on business
For Jane Pinyapat her studies opened the door to programming and equipped her with skills she considers invaluable. Read Jane’s story for her favorite programming tools, passion for Pink Programming, and top advice for LUSEM students aiming for a career in data analytics and engineering.
Understanding, monitoring and mitigating drought is a very difficult task as a consequence of the intrinsic nature of the phenomenon. In addition, assessing the impact of drought on ecosystems and societies is also a complex task, because the same drought severity may have different consequences in different regions and systems due to the underlying vulnerabilities. New technologies based on geosp
Non-harmonized direct taxes fall within the Member States' competence. This means that the Member States are free to develop their own tax systems, as long as there is no Community harmonisation. But since the freedom of establishment (and other rights under the EC Treaty) could be disturbed by national tax law, this competence must be exercised in consistency with Community law to avoid any d
BACKGROUND: The use of nitrous oxide (N2O) during hemodilution has been questioned. Nitrous oxide reduces the inspired oxygen fraction (F1O2), depresses myocardial function and may reduce cardiac output (CO) and systemic oxygen delivery (DO2SY). The aim of this study was to evaluate the importance of the effects of nitrous oxide on systemic and myocardial circulation and oxygenation during extreme
BACKGROUND: Neuronal damage in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is common, but the extent and mechanisms are unclear. Neurofilament light (NfL) concentrations rise in plasma and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) during neuronal damage in various neurological disorders. In this cross-sectional study, plasma and CSF concentrations of NfL were explored as a marker of neuronal damage in SLE.METHODS: Seventy
The immune control of tuberculosis (TB) infection could be influenced by pregnancy. To elucidate this, we longitudinally characterized Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb)-specific and nonspecific immune responses in women during pregnancy and postpartum. HIV-uninfected women without past or current active TB, and with blood samples available from the 1st/2nd trimester, 3rd trimester, and 9 months pos
The current plastic system is unsustainable and needs to change. Plastics are mainly produced from fossil feedstock, contributing to greenhouse gas emissions, and low rate of post-consumer recycling results in pollution on land and in oceans with high ecological impact, and huge loss of valuable material. There is an urgent need to find solutions for shifting the raw material base to renewable res
This thesis focuses on the provision and management of water supply and sanitation in housing areas in the City of Dar es Salaam. The main objective of the study is to contribute to knowledge and understanding of provision and management of urban water supply and sanitation in Tanzania in the context of sustainable urbanisation. A sectoral and single problem issue study approach was avoided and in
Popular Abstract in Swedish Radiojodbehandling av sköldkörteln är den vanligaste radiofarmakaterapin. För att beräkna aktiviteten 131I som krävs för att ge en viss stråldos till sköldkörteln behöver sköldkörtelns massa och den individuella biokinetiken bestämmas. Biokinetiken består vanligtvis av det individuella upptaget av jodid och den biologiska halveringstiden av jod i sköldkörteln. Den bioloRadioiodine therapy of hyperthyroidism is the most frequently performed radiopharmaceutical therapy. To calculate the activity of 131-I to be administered for giving a certain absorbed dose to the thyroid, the mass of the thyroid and the individual biokinetic data, normally in the form of uptake and biologic half-time, have to be determined. The biologic half-time is estimated from several uptake
