Electrogoniometers are prone to crosstalk errors related to endblocks rotation (general crosstalk) and to the characteristics of each sensor (individual crosstalk). The aim of this study was to assess the crosstalk errors due to endblock misalignments and to propose a procedure to compensate for these errors in knee applications. A precision jig was used to simulate pure +/- 100 degrees flexion/ex
Nocturnal hawkmoths are known for impressive visually guided behaviours in dim light, such as hovering while feeding from nectar-bearing flowers. This requires tight visual feedback to estimate and counter relative motion. Discrimination of low velocities, as required for stable hovering flight, is fundamentally limited by spatial resolution, yet in the evolution of eyes for nocturnal vision, main

The purpose of this thesis is to evaluate and compare ethical and traditional funds. There has been numerous attempts to investigate whether or not ethical investments are associated with a sacrifice in yield and we hope with this thesis to further the understanding of premiums in ethical investments on the Swedish market. In our paper we’re comparing different styles of funds through the use of a

The following research explores a critical intersection between the work of mine action and the climate. It addresses the amplified impacts of climate change on water in Yemen, a country afflicted by protracted conflict and growing climate threats. This study showcases the necessity of integrating climate considerations into the mine action strategies and underpins the impact of climate change on
Detta arbete är en undersökning av 33 § avtalslagen. I paragrafen återfinns bestämmelsen om när det strider mot tro och heder att åberopa en rättshand-ling. För att tillämpa paragrafen finns två krav: dels att det föreligger en om-ständighet som gör att det skulle kunna strida mot tro och heder att åberopa avtalet, dels att det finns ond tro rörande omständigheten. Rättsföljden om paragrafen tilläThis paper is a deep dive into section 33 of the Swedish Contracts Act. Sec-tion 33 regards when invoking a legal act may be considered contrary to ‘good faith and fair dealing’. Two criteria must be met in order to apply this provision; firstly, some circumstance that could make it contrary to good faith must be at hand, secondly, there must be bad faith regarding this foremen-tioned circumstance
Titeln på detta arbete, Häng med i svängarna!, kommer från en av våra frågeställningar: ”Vilka färdigheter bör en modern trumslagare inneha för att vara så förberedd som möjligt på dagens musikaliska landskap?” Detta grundar sig i en idé om att en modern trumslagare bör införskaffa sig de moderna färdigheter som behövs för att helt enkelt hänga med i svängarna, eller att hänga med i det moderna. S
Private equity (PE) investment changes not only who owns firms but also how they are governed. In founder-led firms, this transition is particularly complex because authority, decision-making, and organizational identity are closely tied to the founder. Existing research explains private equity governance primarily through monitoring and value-creation mechanisms, but less is known about how the i
Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to investigate whether firms react to covenant pressure pre-breach event by adjusting their operational and financial strategies. Methodology: The econometric approach of choice is a firm fixed effects panel regression on the sample of firm-year observations. The regressions use a treated form of interest coverage slack as the main explanatory variable, while
The language that individuals use for expressing themselves contains rich psychological information. Recent significant advances in Natural Language Processing (NLP) and Deep Learning (DL), namely transformers, have resulted in large performance gains in tasks related to understanding natural language. However, these state-of-the-art methods have not yet been made easily accessible for psychology
In Sweden it is now recognized that while teaching should be based on research and proven experience, research-based practice is limited in scope, and classroom teaching is not always informed by findings from educational research. To address this problem, and to develop and test sustainable models of researcher-practitioner collaboration, the Swedish Government has introduced a national system of
Background and Objective: Waste in clinical trials remains rife. We developed an economic model to predict the cost of trials based on input costs, duration, power, number of sites, recruitment eligibility and consenting rates. Methods: We parameterised the model for three proxy placebo-controlled surgical trials using data from a systematic review, a bespoke cost survey, and from the literature.
BACKGROUND: Patients with diabetes have increased rates of major adverse cardiac events (MACEs). We hypothesized that this is explained by diabetes-associated differences in coronary plaque morphology and lipid content. METHODS: In PROSPECT II (Providing Regional Observations to Study Predictors of Events in the Coronary Tree), 898 patients with acute myocardial infarction with or without ST-segme
West Nile virus (WNV), a mosquito-borne zoonosis, has emerged as a disease of public health concern in Europe. Recent outbreaks have been attributed to suitable climatic conditions for its vectors favoring transmission. However, to date, projections of the risk for WNV expansion under climate change scenarios is lacking. Here, we estimate the WNV-outbreaks risk for a set of climate change and soci
