Determination of the fluid-to-particle heat transfer coefficient hfp is a fundamental problem in food engineering. Solutions to this problem help food technologists and cooks prepare foods with desired characteristics more efficiently in time and energy use. This study aims to determine the hfp-value in simmering and boiling solid foods. Furthermore, it investigates how the culinary terms simmerin
This thesis considers an investigation into the possibilities of creating a reasonably accurate multiscale material model for paperboard, with geometry based on X-ray scans of small paperboard samples. The modeling takes place in the software Multiscale Designer by Altair Engineering Inc. A representative volume element (RVE) is used to capture the X-ray geometry and represent macroscopic mechanic
With the recent development of Internet technology, the e-commerce industry is booming. However, under this rapid development, various inequality issues are hidden. Inspired by Goldin's (2002) study on declining gender significance, this paper focuses on the gender inequalities faced by female employees in the e-commerce industry in China. This paper focuses on one of the representatives of th
This work investigates visualizations of two crises; terrorism and climate change. Focus lies on mediated images concerning Paris 2015, where terrorist attacks had an impact on the following UN climate change conference (COP21). The symbol of the Eiffel Tower was used to portrait both issues and will be studied through a semiotic analysis. Terrorism and climate change are argued to be interlinked,
Purpose: The study aims to investigate the multi-phased customer experience for accommodation through Airbnb and its relation to the concepts of co-creation and expectation. Methodology: Through abductive reasoning, this study uses both qualitative and quantitative method to achieve the stated aim. The interview will be used to develop the explanations for answering the research questions. In add
Newcomers organizational socialization has been emphasized as the most critical period of employment, because of the high number of redundancies among new employees. While striving for an understanding of this socialization process, researcher within the field has identified different tactics that organizations tend to use in order to form newcomers behavior and attitudes. Meanwhile, it has also b
One of the central features of a successful decision support system is the interface. What to provide and how to provide information that later will support the users to make a decision is crucial. With the emergence of mobile business intelligence, the concern about how this technology could increase its user performance in the decision making context and how to deliver these capability to the wo
Sveriges plansystem är omfattande och processerna tar ofta lång tid. För att kunna möta akuta behov av bostäder och främja en effektiv samhällsutveckling behövs vissa ventiler i systemet. Tidsbegränsade bygglov tillåter avsteg från vissa förutsättningar som normalt behöver uppfyllas för permanenta bygglov. Syftet med arbetet är att utreda hur regeln om tidsbegränsade bygglov i 9 kap 33 § PBL tolThere is a big need for new residential areas in Sweden but the process of exploitation and building is time-consuming. Temporary Building Permits allow construction, even though some of the normally required criteria are not fulfilled. An ease in the legislation is useful in order to meet urgent needs and to achieve an efficient land use. The purpose of this thesis is to study how the regulatio
The purpose of this study is to understand and gain insights into the entrepreneurial marketing experiences of female immigrant women in the Helsinki metropolitan area. There is limited literature on immigrant entrepreneurs in Finland and even less regarding female immigrant entrepreneurs, thus it is important to investigate this subject matter. A qualitative research method is adopted, through t
För att förhindra materiellt oriktiga domar, tillämpas ett högt beviskrav. Allmänhetens rättstrygghet får därmed ge vika för den tilltalades rättighet att inte utsättas för en risk att bli felaktigt dömd. Vidare har den tilltalade enligt art 6 EKMR en rätt till tystnad under rättegången. Följaktligen kan en domstol inte basera en fällande dom enbart på den tilltalades tystnad. Utifrån en rättsdogmA high standard of proof is used in criminal trials to prevent erroneous convictions. The accused has the right not to be exposed to the risk of being wrongfully convicted. A criminal defendant who is being prosecuted also has a right to silence. Thus it is incompatible with the right to silence to base a conviction solely on the defendant’s silence. This paper examines whether the standard of pro
To be able to automatically segment cells in microscopic images would give biologist a new tool to gather crucial data in quantities not possible by manual work. This is however not a trivial problem and has proven to be very difficult, especially if the images are in 3D. One of the major challenges is the ability for the methods to generalize beyond the data it has previously been presented with.
Internet of Things (IoT), det vill säga fysiska objekt med inbyggd elektronik som kan kopplas upp mot internet och styras eller utbyta data över nätet, har idag blivit en självklar del i många personers vardag. Det kan vara allt från hälsoarmband och kylskåp, till glödlampor och termostater. Som förutspås har vi dock ännu inte sett det stora genombrottet för denna teknik och vad den kan komma att The Internet of Things (IoT), i.e. physical objects with embedded electronics that can be connected to the internet and be controlled or exchange data over the network, has become an integral part of many people's daily lives. IoT devices can be anything from fitness trackers and refrigerators to light bulbs and thermostats. However, as is being predicted, we have yet to see the major breakthr
This is a Bachelor thesis on the subject of the food industry’s influence over the EU institutions. The purpose of the thesis is to find out how the great food companies affect the EU legislation on sugar regulation through lobbying. The thesis describes how the EU food- and health policies are shaped and how the lobbying works. The methodology used for the thesis is a qualitative content analysis
There is extensive research on creativity and innovation, as well as the question of whether UGC and social media platforms foster creativity or dumb down culture. There is however a gap in research on how creative and innovative UGC is. The purpose of this study is therefore to investigate the creative motivations behind creating UGC and whether the UGC on TikTok is applicable to creative and inn
Dyslexia is a problem that can limit someone’s life if the person does not receive the appropriate support in order to develop strategies to deal with it, and it is not limited to one’s first language. The first limitations appear early in life during the school years as the child struggles with literacy issues. It is in the educational environment where the child will receive the first support a
Wastewater from pharmaceutical industries can sometimes contain substances that could cause complications in the receiving wastewater treatment plant. This master thesis is about a phar-maceutical company and the wastewater from it. The company (McNeil) will introduce new products, and this will result in new wastewater streams with unknown properties. It is crucial that the new streams do not cau
Fankulturen till pojkbandet One Direction har diskuterats flitigt i olika media där fansen, också kallade directioners, har blivit utmålade som galna och fanatiska. Denna (n)etnografiska studie undersöker hur dessa mediala berättelser påverkar fans i deras identitetsskapande samt påverkar deras deltagande i fankulturen. Uppsatsen analyserar också homoerotisk fanfiction skriven om bandet, som i deThe One Direction fandom has been a source for a lot of discussion in different media, where fans, also known as Directioners, have been viewed as crazy, fanatic and also said to send deaththreats. This (n)ethnographic study investigates how these media narratives shape fans in the formings of their identities, and also how it effects them when participating in the fandom. This study also analyse
Dividing wall columns are single shell distillation columns which are thermally fully coupled. DWC has the ability to create three product streams from one feed stream. A simulation of DWCs is hard due to the complexity of the system. Unfortunately, there is no good software package that can be used for simulations. Instead a detailed flowsheet with the right components and good arrangement over t
