Applied Machine Learning in Steel Industry – Examination of possible applications of machine learning for SSAB Oxelösund In modern industry there are high demands for increased resource efficiency that in part are motivated by the stronger competition on the global market, as well as by the societal necessity for a more sustainable industry. This master thesis project examines applied machine lear
Förlust av biodiversitet är ett av de största globala miljöbetingade problemen idag. Arter står inför ökande och potentiellt synergistiska hot från markomvandling och överexploatering av naturresurser, från globala såväl som lokala socioekonomiska krafter. Populationerna av ryggradsdjur har mellan år 1970 och 2016 visat på en global genomsnittlig minskning på 68 procent. Större djur, s.k. megafaunThe critically endangered Sumatran rhinoceros (Dicerorhinus sumatrensis) has, due to previous hunting and habitat loss, diminished to a few non-viable and fragmented populations. Despite a relatively large amount of conservation efforts during the last 30 years, numbers are still declining. Accurate numbers today are unknown, since the species is rare. Information indicates that less than 100 indi
Introduction: This work aims to evaluate the possibility to transfer electrical power from a metal plate to the steel-cord within a car tire. If the tire stands on the plate, a connecting surface occurs which can be interpreted as a capacitor, where the rubber compound acts as a dielectric. Method: First the impedance of the tire is evaluated: An analytical model is set-up to describe the system;
Abstract Individuals within species often show a consistent differences in their risk-taking behavior. I investigated whether intra-specific variation in risk-taking behavior is adaptive, i.e. if it stems from the life history strategy differences between individuals. As a result of life history trade-offs, individuals vary in their investment into survival and reproduction, such that some indivi
Den 30 juni 2022 trädde nya lagförändringar i kraft efter att förslaget om reformerad arbetsrätt antagits. En av lagförändringarna var 12 a § i lag (2012:854) om uthyrning av arbetstagare. Denna innebär att kundföretag ska erbjuda tillsvidareanställning för inhyrda arbetstagare som utfört arbete åt företaget på samma driftsenhet i sammanlagt mer än 24 månader under en 36-månaderperiod. LagförändriOn the 30th of June 2022, new law amendments entered into force after proposals for a reformed labor law. One of the proposals was 12 § a in the Agency Work Act. This section determines that client companies must offer permanent employment for hired workers who have worked for the company at the same operating site for a total of more than 24 months during a 36-month period. The legislation is bas
Syfte: Studiens syfte var att jämföra bedömningsinstrumentet Bayley-4 med Nya Reynell genom användning på barn i åldern 30–42 månader för att undersöka om de fångar upp samma aspekter av språklig förmåga. Vidare var studiens syfte att undersöka om Bayley-4 kan vara lämpligt att använda på logopedmottagningar. Metod: Deltagare bestod av fem barn inom åldersspannet. Barnen kom från två olika förskoAim: The purpose of the study was to compare the assessment instrument Bayley-4 and New Reynell Developmental Language Scales to investigate whether they capture the same aspects of language ability and furthermore if Bayley-4 could be suitable for use in Speech–Language Pathology Clinics. The study involved assessing children aged 30- 42 months. Method: Five children within the age range particip
I en metaanalys granskades litteraturen om sambandet mellan konfidens och korrekthet i episodiskt minne, med särskilt fokus på minne för brottsrelaterade händelseförlopp vid fri och styrd återgivning. Trots omfattande forskning inom området identifierades en lucka inom forskningsfältet, då ingen tidigare meta- analys specifikt behandlat sambandet mellan konfidens och korrekthet för fri och styrd åThis meta-analysis reviewed the literature on the relationship between confidence and accuracy in episodic memory, specifically focusing on crime- relevant event memory in free and cued recall. Despite extensive research in this area, an apparent gap was identified within memory research, as no prior meta-analysis has addressed the relationship between confidence and accuracy in the context of fre
IntroductionGlobal water scarcity requires new approaches for water treatment. Membrane technology has proven itself as key technology for water treatment from seawater desalination with reverse osmosis to wastewater treatment with membrane bioreactors. In this presentation three new water treatment concepts based on membrane technology and their development from idea to pilot scale testing will b
Hemicelluloses, which are abundant in nature and have potential use in a wide variety of applications, may make an important contribution in helping relieve society of its dependence on petrochemicals. However, cost-efficient methods for the isolation of hemicelluloses are required. This article presents an economic evaluation of a full-scale process to isolate hemicelluloses from process water fr
The present series comprises all families (n = 77) with haemophilia B in Sweden and may be considered to be representative for the purposes of a population-based study of mutational heterogeneity. The 77 families (38 severe, 10 moderate, 29 mild) had 51 different mutations in total. Thirteen families had total, partial or small deletions, two had mutations in the promoter, eight families had splic
Here, we describe the preparation, structure, and properties of cryogel sponges, which represent a new type of macroporous biomaterial for tissue engineering. Cryogels were produced through freeze-thawing techniques, either from agarose alone or from agarose with grafted gelatin. The aim of this study was to evaluate agarose cryogel sponges as scaffolds for Culturing both isolated pancreatic islet
Objectives: To compare a laparoscopic (totally extraperitoneal patch (TEP)) and an open technique (Lichtenstein) for inguinal hernia repair regarding recurrence rate and possible risk factors for recurrence. Summary Background Data: Laparoscopic hernia repair has been introduced as an alternative to open repair. Short-term follow-tip suggests benefits for those patients operated with a laparoscopi
Patients with anaplastic thyroid carcinoma can rarely be cured, but every effort should be made to prevent death due to suffocation. Between 1984 and 1999, 55 consecutive patients with anaplastic thyroid carcinoma were prospectively treated according to a combined regimen consisting of hyperfractionated radiotherapy, doxorubicin, and when feasible surgery. Radiotherapy was carried out for 5 days a
Specific ion (Hofmeister) effects in colloid and biological systems represented a scientific challenge for more than 100 years. Recently, possible applications, based on their rationalization, are emerging. Here, Cl-, SO42-, SCN- anions and Na+, K+, Mg2+ cations are added at physiological concentration (∼0.15 mol/kg) to Pluronic F127 20 wt% aqueous solutions to suitably tune phase transitions for
In its latest assessment report the IPCC stresses the need for carbon dioxide removal (CDR) to counterbalance residual emissions to achieve net zero carbon dioxide or greenhouse gas emissions. There are currently a wide variety of CDR measures available. Their potential and feasibility, however, depends on context specific conditions, as among others biophysical site characteristics, or availabili
[18F]Flortaucipir is an FDA-approved tau-PET tracer that is increasingly utilized in clinical settings for the diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease. Still, a large-scale comparison of the in vivo PET uptake to quantitative post-mortem tau pathology and to other co-pathologies is lacking. Here, we examined the correlation between in vivo [18F]flortaucipir PET uptake and quantitative post-mortem tau pat
Land cover governs the biogeophysical and biogeochemical feedbacks between the land surface and atmosphere. Holocene vegetation-atmosphere interactions are of particular interest, both to understand the climate effects of intensifying human land use and as a possible explanation for the Holocene temperature conundrum, a widely studied mismatch between simulated and reconstructed temperatures.
