This thesis covers the estimation of the fracture behaviour of the European wood species Norway spruce and birch. The fracture behavior of wood can be quantified through three material parameters: the stiffness, the strength, and the specific fracture energy. In the present work, these parameters are characterized through two methods.The first method is purely experimental and only estimates one pThis thesis covers the estimation of the fracture behaviour of the European woodspecies Norway spruce and birch.

Iron is a one of the critical elements in our life, being the most common element on earth, forming most of the inner and outer earth’s core. In our bodies iron is required in small amounts for biological processes to be performed. It is recommended to eat food containing iron to avoid common health problems such as anemia. A slight increase or decrease in iron levels above or below normal in liviFriedreich’s ataxia (FRDA) is an autosomal recessive neurodegenerative disease caused by defeciency in frataxin, a highly conserved protein central to iron homeostasis in mirochondria. The function of frataxin is related to its capability to bind, store and deliver iron to different biochemical process such as iron-sulfur cluster assembly and heme biosynthesis. Most FRDA pateints have extended GAA

Image quality has always been a matter of great importance for anyone working with or consuming images and videos. Images and videos are, in general, for human consumption. Thus, image quality is essentially a subjective attribute of an image. Though there exist both objective and subjective approaches to assessing image quality, objective results may not correlate well with subjective resultImage quality has always been a matter of great importance for anyone working with or consuming images and videos. There exist both objective and subjective approaches to assessing image quality. Example metrics of the former include PSNR and SSIM, both of which mathematically compare pixels of the original image with the equivalent pixels of the distorted or changed image. Objective methods are f

This project aims to highlight the manufacturer as an important asset in product development. In order to design a product, it is necessary, especially for industrial designers to have good knowledge of the manufacturing technologies that are available and to have knowledge of the working environments in which our ideas are put into practice. Increased cooperation between local actors opens opport

Research regarding remittances and development has long been plagued by a gender-neutral approach. Consideration is rarely given to why female migrants remit differently. Prior research suggests that female remitters may experience increased burdens and pressure to remit. Media effects theories dictate that the ways in which media is disseminated and consumed has societal impacts and consequences.

"Principal Components Regression" (PCREG), also sometimes called "biased regression methods" is used to model data with highly correlated explanatory variables. This well-known method has been discussed by multiple previous authors (Marquardt 1970, Hoerl and Kennard 1970, Lott 1973, Hawkins 1973, Webster, Grace and Mason 1974, Hoerl, Kennard and Baldwin 1975, Marquardt and Snee

In recent years, two Swedish companies have been a focus of substantial media attention: TeliaSonera and Lundin Petroleum. The defensive strategies employed by these two businesses to deal with allegations of crime will be analysed on the basis of Stanley Cohen’s theoretical work on processes of denial and neutralisation techniques. This paper will focus on a particular form of denial, namely the In recent years, two Swedish companies have been a focus of substantial media attention: TeliaSonera and Lundin Petroleum.

This study aims to investigate, understand and explore issues related to the appropriateness of the existing fire protection solutions in historical buildings and their effectiveness in avoiding catastrophes. Therefore, recent papers, case studies, statutory documents, and guidelines are reviewed. An explanation of the rationale is provided and potential fire safety solutions for historic buildin

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.

The purpose of this thesis is to study and analyze how benchmarking as a tool is being practiced in the Swedish hotel sector, and also to study what potentials and abilities for learning and development there are. In order to fulfill the purpose we have compared how selected hotels apply benchmarking in practice. We applied a qualitative method with a deductive approach in terms of a multiple cas

With today’s advancements in camera technology, image-stabilization is a crucial element for capturing sharp and steady images and video. Nowadays, cameras usually have built-in stabilizers that perform well in this task. In some cases, however, an additional stabilizer may be required to achieve optimal results. In such circumstances, electronically controlled gimbals are a popular choice when it
