There are laws that prohibit ships from discharging solid waste into the Mediterranean Sea. However, it’s estimated that between 15-35% of all plastic found in the Mediterranean comes from merchant shipping. Economic incentives are important to make ships reduce their maritime litter, and this essay will assess economic policies to prevent further pollution. France and Spain have different systems

The potential of Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) is currently explored in the world. SMRs as technology is still under development but is introduced to the public. In this stage, when much is still uncertain and unknown, media is important. The benefits and risks related to this new technology articulated in media potentially shape different actors' expectations and attitudes towards the technology.

Due to the increasing share of older people worldwide, the United Nations has directed an initiative towards a "decade of healthy ageing" to promote "age-friendly environments". This study aims to gain a deeper understanding of how to promote social participation and everyday mobility in later life. The ambition is to increase the knowledge about how to create more age-friendly environments and so

Human desires when consuming food are nowadays shifting towards more healthy, and natural food. Products with food particles are commonly well perceived by consumers. Among them, one can find yoghurt with fruit pieces or cereals. To process these products, and satisfy the user expectations, some challenging conditions must be faced. Some of these, are explored in this Master Thesis.

Popular Abstract in English Sugar is the main source of energy in our bodies. If your blood sugar drops below a certain level, it can cause serious damage to your brain. On the other hand, having a very high blood sugar level for a long time can cause diabetes. For this reason, blood sugar levels in our bodies are maintained within a certain range by a group of hormones that work together. These hIslet dysfunction is central to the development and progression of type 2 diabetes (T2D). Epigenetic modifications are essential for establishing and maintaining cell identity and function in normal circumstances. Exposure to adverse environmental factors may alter the epigenome, and result in changes of gene expression and the resulting phenotype. The aim of this thesis was to analyze DNA methyla

The field of radial turbines is wide and radial turbines of today find applications in areas as diverse as small gas turbines; turbochargers for cars, buses, and trucks, railway locomotives, and diesel power generators; cryogenic and process expanders; rocket engine turbopumps; and specialty steam turbines.

Avhandlingen redovisar en undersökning av samspelet mellan människor i samhällsliv, näringsliv och rättsprocesser, varigenom författaren kartlagt förutsättningarna för enskilda att aktivera civilrättsliga instrument i syfte att främja en utveckling i linje med normer som återspeglas i FNs hållbarhetsmål enligt Agenda 2030.The dissertation is the result of a study of private law viewed as a source This dissertation is the result of a study of private law viewed as a source of power for individuals to enhance values they favour. As an appropriate example of such values, the study has focused on current norms that have been recognized and mirrored as sustainable development goals (SDGs) in the UN Agenda 2030. The research question asks why and under which conditions it is possible for individ

Research has shown the Ugandan construction industry to be, primarily, an informal sector dominated by unskilled labour contracted mainly on minor building works such as alterations and renovations. Within such a context, the industry has also received negative publicity due to increasing quality failures on sites – commonly referred to as shoddy work. Some reasons cited for these failures include

The Potts Neural Network approach to non-binary discrete optimizationproblems is described. It applies to problems that can be described asa set of elementary 'multiple choice' options. Instead of the conventionalbinary (Ising) neurons, mean field Potts neurons, having several availablestates, are used to describe the elementary degrees of freedom of suchproblems. The dynamics consists of iteratin

This study aims to investigate the feasibility of using diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS) to distinguish malignant breast tissue from adjacent healthy tissue, and to evaluate if an extended-wavelength range (450–1550 nm) has an advantage over the standard wavelength range (450–900 nm). Multivariate statistics and machine learning algorithms, either linear discriminant analysis (LDA) or suppor
