Alfa Laval has been using its unique adhesive mixture for over 50 years for bonding of rubber gaskets to the corrugated plates used in their heat exchangers. The adhesive mix is designated GC6 and is composed out of an epoxy component and a phenolic component. GC6 has throughout the years shown exceptionally good performance in both adhesion to the rubber gasket and to the plate with minimal pre-t
Denna rapport innehåller en produktutvecklingsprocess som fokuserar på att integrera ett mjukstängningssystem för skjutdörrar i ett existerande skåp på IKEA. Enheten har idag vad som kallas för guider som håller skåpsdörrarna på plats. Målet är att skapa en enhet som besitter de viktigaste egenskaperna av en guide och av en mjukstängningsmekanism för att kunna ersätta den förstnämnda. Detta görs fThis master thesis includes a product development process focused on incorporating a soft closing system for sliding doors in an existing cabinet at IKEA. A soft closing system prevents the door from slamming into the furniture when closing it. The unit today has what is called guides, holding the cabinet doors in place. The aim is to create a device that possesses all of the crucial qualities of
A stark political system change in Warsaw and an enormous economic spurt have given prominence to private initiatives, leaving behind several public spaces and relevant buildings or at the will of speculative developers. Sports facilities, being one of these public spaces, are having problems of funding, restoration and maintenance, leaving them neglected, though there is a need of them functionin
Due to the ongoing urbanisation, the urban environment will consist of extended impervious areas, such as roof tops, roads and parking lots. During rainfall events these kinds of impermeable areas will cause a faster and larger response in runoff, which can lead to an increased load on the storm-water system and thus increase the risk of flooding. In certain areas, the situation will be further wo
There have been several studies which indicate a preferential invasion towards younger red blood cells (RBCs) for the malarial parasite, P. Falciparum. Knowledge about a preferential mechanism could aid in the development of novel anti-malarial drugs. While the preference in these reports has been studied with density-separation of red blood cells, separating the cells by deformability may be a mo
It is said that coreference is difficult to explain, but easy to comprehend; everyoneknows coreference, they just don’t know that they do. We trained a computer toknow it too! Coreference resolution is the identification of phrases that refer to the same entity in a text. Current techniques to solve coreferences use machine-learning algorithms, which require large annotated data sets. Such annota
The constantly increasing awareness of protecting the environment has put electrical roads in the spotlight as an alternative solution to fossil driven means of transport. Dan Zethraeus has developed an innovative idea for a prototype electrical road which conductively supplies power to the cars whilst driving. The concept is to place a line of short rail segments in the middle of the drive lanes

The purpose of this master thesis project was to compare two pasteurizers (pasteurizer 31 and 52) at Österlenmejeriet AB (ÖMAB) in Lunnarp, which is a part of Danone, France and once the differences were clear the goal was to have them equalized in the aspect of heating effects/temperature treatments/heating load and processing parameters. The products that are mainly pasteurized on these pasteuri
The demand for organic products is high in France, and the amount of land under organic production is increasing. This is due to the Organic Certification label, that helps to bring up the price and attractiveness of organic goods, and the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) that provides farmers funds and assistance. However, organic farmers in France still struggle to make ends meet which is detrim
This master thesis investigates how to perform irrational decimation, the process of reducing the sample rate of a signal, for high throughput systems. The thesis work consists both an algorithmic part and an implementation part. In the algorithmic part, an algorithm that could cope with the requirements is found, and investigated due to different aspects. A group of filters that are investigate
In this paper, we address distributed convergence to fair allocations of CPU resources for time-sensitive applications. We propose a novel resource management framework where a centralized objective for fair allocations is decomposed into a pair of performance-driven recursive processes for updating: (a) the allocation of computing bandwidth to the applications (resource adaptation), executed by t
Background: Traditionally average values of the whole population are considered when analysing microbial cell cultivations. However, a typical microbial population in a bioreactor is heterogeneous in most phenotypes measurable at a single-cell level. There are indications that such heterogeneity may be unfavourable on the one hand (reduces yields and productivities), but also beneficial on the oth
The introduction of the laparoscope was a milestone within gynecologic surgery. Despite evidence of better perioperative outcome compared to laparotomy, laparoscopy is mostly performed for less advanced surgical procedures and the uptake of laparoscopic hysterectomy has been slow. An effort to preserve the clinical benefits of laparoscopic surgery and facilitate the performance of more advanced su
Endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) represents one of the greatest advances in vascular surgery over the past 50 years. In contrast to conventional aneurysm repair, EVAR requires accurate preoperative imaging and stringent postoperative surveillance. Duplex ultrasound (DUS), transesophageal echocardiography, intravascular ultrasound, computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance (MR), each provi
Vid fångst av nattfjärilar använder man ofta lockbeten. De består av en trasa eller liknande som dränks in med någon lockande vätska och hängs upp i t.ex. ett träd. Under natten kan betet inspekteras många gånger och djur samlas in. Recepten för den lockande vätska varierar kraftigt mellan olika samlare men innehåller alltid jästa produkter av något slag. En stor skiljelinje går mellan beten som b
Popular Abstract in Swedish Stroke är en sjukdom som främst drabbar äldre och är den största anledningen till att människor får olika slags handikapp såsom förlamning och afasi. Det finns ännu ingen effektiv behandling för att lindra symtom och lidande efter en stroke, förutom rehabilitering, och därför kostar stroke samhället enormt mycket pengar. Befolkningen blir allt äldre, vilket även medför Cell replacement by neural transplantation can, in animal models of neurodegenerative diseases, reconstruct damaged brain circuitry. In the clinical situation, the graft material used for cell therapy must, most likely, be of human origin. The human fetal brain is one potential source of neural stem cells (NSCs) for cell replacement therapy in neurodegenerative disorders such as stroke. Stroke is
