Ultrafiltration was used during extracorporeal circulation (ECC) with heart-lung machine in 17 critically ill cardiac patients. In ultrafiltration (hemofiltration), water and small molecules (e.g. urea, creatinine and electrolytes), are separated from the blood by hydrostatic pressure generated on the blood side of a semipermeable membrane. The patients had severe water overload for three reasons,
Dataskyddsförordningen, GDPR, ämnar att skydda personuppgifter genom att sätta den registrerades intressen är i fokus, samtidigt som lagen specifikt beaktar mikro-företag samt små och medelstora företags, SMEs, särskilda behov. Uppsatsen närmar sig denna problematik från ett perspektiv baserat på grundläggande rättigheter; problemformuleringen är hur mindre företags rättigheter och intressen kan bThe General Data Protection Regulation, GDPR, aims to provide protection of personal data which is centred on the data-subject, while at the same time categorically giving special consideration to the specific needs of micro, small and medium‑sized enterprises, SMEs. The paper approaches this conundrum from a fundamental rights angle, and tries to answer how the rights and interests of smaller bus
Reindeer husbandry has long been a central element of the traditional livelihood and culture of indigenous Sami people in northern Sweden. However, it faces several challenges from competing land uses, primarily forestry. Different forest conditions are desired by forestry and reindeer husbandry to accommodate each sectors’ distinct interests, promoting high timber and pulp production or improved
This master thesis report describes a product development process with the aim to create a construction which ensures an easier installation by replacing screws with other alternative assembly methods. The project has been performed at Axis Communications AB, which is the market leading company in network cameras. A previous project called Rocky provided the idea of an excenter lock compressing an
The trade-off between throughput and memory constraints is a common design problem in embedded systems, and especially for streaming applications, where the memory in question usually occurs in the form of buffers for streams of data. This paper presents a methodology, based on the post-processing of dataflow execution traces, that enables designers to make principled choices in the design space f
Coordinated inventory management is not widely used among companies today. Not even modern companies, which should have resources and ability to always be in the forefront of technological developments, prioritizes models that in theory can provide substantial savings. This report illustrates that a slightly more advanced method to calculate the safety stock can increase the service accuracy and s
This essay is dealing with the question of the possibility for a non archaeologist to learn something about the Scandinavian Bronze Age by reading novels taking place in the specific period. I have studied novels written by Scandinavian writers between 1980 and present. Before I started I constructed nine different categories that I was to look for in the novels. The categories were constructed in
This is a study that explores how digital sex workers create intimacy for their customers. It furthers not only the literature regarding sex work but also the research on digitally mediated relationships. I conducted semi-structured interviews with six women who have experience with digital-only sex work. Three of these interviews were also complemented with a body mapping session. The data was an
In this thesis, a holographic model for quantum chromodynamics (QCD) is used to estimate the electromagnetic contribution to the kaon mass difference. The principal ideas of the model are inspired by the AdS/CFT correspondence, which is believed to be exact. The calculation is first performed theoretically, highlighting the expansion of the result into a diagrammatic structure referred to as Witte
Many models beyond the Standard Model that predict the existence of multiple Higgs bosons. In general, some of these additional Higgs bosons could be quasi-degenerate in mass either to each other or to the observed 125 GeV Higgs boson. The goal of this thesis is to study under which circumstances we can resolve such Higgs bosons. We first make the simplifying assumption that the observed and predi
Granular Activated Carbon (GAC) is nowadays suggested as a fourth (quaternary) treatment step at municipal wastewater treatment plants to remove certain chemicals and particularly organic micropollutants (OMPs). This work investigated the different factors that affect the performance of the GAC filter for the removal of micropollutants in a municipal wastewater treatment plant. This study is purel
The Covid-19 pandemic moved work from the office to the home, rapidly creating a new working life where remote work became the new normal. In times of change, leadership becomes important, and the managers have to take big responsibility in guiding during new uncertain situations. This thesis aims to explore how first line managers make sense and handle their practice in the new context created by
The aim of this study is to investigate how John Marsden’s Tomorrow, when the war began (1993) could be used for reading-between-the-lines practice in the English language classroom. It answers questions relating to how reading between the lines can be understood in relation to Grice’s cooperative principle, the effects of implicature in the text and how teachers can use this information to facili
The master thesis was carried out for Sandvik SRP in cooperation with the division of Production and Materials Engineering at the Faculty of Engineering at Lund University. This thesis is part of a larger research project with the title ”Blyfria kopparlegeringar” funded by Vinnova within SIO Produktion 2030. Lead-free bearing-materials, which could be used to replace the current bear-ing-material
This study is about how eurhythmic teachers create a comfortable and educational environment in their classrooms. In other words how they create a healthy working environment. Four teachers were chosen for the study, one of them male. I?ve used qualitative interviews because I believe it's the best method to collect information that illustrates what a teacher's working situation looks like
Studien syftade till att skildra och förstå återkopplingspraxis efter psykologutredning av barn. En webbenkät skickades till 1 053 psykologer inom habilitering och psykiatri i Sverige. Svarsfrekvensen var 34,9 % och det slutliga stickprovet bestod av 317 respondenter, varav 64 % arbetade inom psykiatri, 82 % var kvinnor, medelåldern var 40 år, och medianvärdet för antal utredningar var 15 per år. The study aimed to examine how clinical psychologists provide feedback after assessing children. An online survey sent to 1,053 psychologists at children's rehabilitation and psychiatric facilities in Sweden gave the response rate 34.9 %. The final sample included 317 participants, of whom 64 % worked at psychiatric facilities, 82 % were women, average age was 40 and median number of assessmen
A growing problem in many cities is that the traffic demand fluctuates heavily during the day and that it grows larger as the years go by. This calls for, and the technology to easier measure traffic enables, more efficient traffic light controls that can handle a greater traffic demand but also be adaptive. Centralised control of traffic light might, even though it can be both adaptive and effici
A system for detecting protein-protein interaction using a bacterial two-hybrid approach, a heterologous expression system in Escherichia coli strain based on adenylate cyclase enzyme reconstitution, was invented twenty years ago (Karimova, et al., 1998, PNAS, 95:5752). Before inventing this system, yeast two-hybrid technology was used for screening putative interaction between either two proteins
Syfte: Syftet med arbetet var att undersöka hur jag som sångare upplever instudering och interpretation av två nyskrivna stycken beroende på hur involverad jag är i tonsättarens skrivandeprocess. Hur påverkas min instudering och interpretation av min involvering i tonsättarens kreativa process, och vilka skillnader upplever jag i förhållande till min egen inblandning i styckets uppkomst? Metod: TvAim: The aim of this study was to examine how I as a singer experience the studies and interpretation of two newly written pieces depending on how involved I am in the composer’s process of writing. How does my involvement in the composer’s creative process affect my studying and interpretation and what differences do I experience in relation to my own involvement in the making of the piece? Metho
