Infrared absorption microscopy is a powerful chemometric tool with a wide variety of applications. It is, however, subject to considerable disturbances from atmospheric gases and scattering effects. As experimental fixes are not always applicable or advisable, data therefore needs to be computationally corrected before any attempt at an interpretation. This work designed, improved and validated se
This thesis presents a seven-step synthetic pathway producing Methanol-Tröger’s base analogue, a monomer. The monomer was intended to be linearly fused to form heptakis-Tröger’s base analogue for characterization, as synthetic pathway had been laid down by previous members of the Wärnmark group. Tröger’s base (TB) is a highly customizable molecule with several aromatic carbon sites and a diazocine
Turbomachinery design is based on multiple physical thermodynamical relations and fluid mechanics. Software implementing these relations in computing fluid flows have been broadly accessible since the 1990’s and has also become more applied to turbomachinery design. However, the software is unfortunately a large expense on research and development departments. Cambridge Professor Emeritus John D.
ABSTRACT The purpose of this essay is to compare the Church of Sweden’s current view on marriage with partly the marriage view of Martin Luther and partly the view held within the church in Sweden after the Reformation. The objects for my analysis is Luther’s Prelude on the Babylonian Captivity of the Church (first published 1520, my edition 1928 in Swedish), Swedish Church Ordinance of 1571 and C
Syfte: Studien undersöker hur användarna av finansiella rapporter uppfattar IFRS 16 utifrån transparens och jämförbarhet. Syftet är att öka förståelsen för hur begreppen transparens och jämförbarhet i IFRS 16 tolkas av användarna samt om mönster i uppfattningarna går att urskilja och i så fall vilka. Metod: Studien utgår från en kvalitativ forskningsstrategi. En kvalitativ innehållsanalys har gen
Diabetes is a disease that is affecting more than 422 million people worldwide. Thiazolidinedinone (TZD) an insulin sensitizer is a drug used for diabetes type 2. It was first thought that the effect of TZD was through the nuclear receptor peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPAR- γ). Recently the mitochondrial pyruvate carrier complex (MPC) that can be found in the mitochondrial inn
This thesis deals with the topic of climate mainstreaming in development cooperation. In particular, the current transformation of German Financial Cooperation is discussed, in light of the fact that the KfW Development Bank is introducing a Climate Mainstreaming Tool in spring 2020 to enable climate mainstreaming across all projects. The challenges of implementing climate mainstreaming and subseq
The recent beach nourishment performed at Faxe Ladeplads in Zealand, Denmark was established with the objective to reduce wave overtopping onto the adjacent road and also aimed to restore a beach for recreation. During the time that the nourishment has been in place, the appearance of the beach has changed significantly compared to when it was initially restored. This project focused on studying t
Overconfident behaviour among investors has been marked as a substantial problem on financial markets. Consequently, many modellers and researchers have discussed the attributes of an overconfident trader, and the implications related to measuring such attributes. Since overconfidence literature can be interpreted to indicate an expectation for a relationship between educational background and ove
Arbetet är en kvalitativ intervjustudie med syftet att belysa och undersöka hur ansvariga för det visuella arbetet vid pop och rock-konserter ser på sitt arbete. Informanterna har skiftande yrkesbakgrund, men de har samtliga stor erfarenhet av ämnesområdet. Ett vidare syfte är att föreslå hur lärare kan omsätta dessa kunskaper inom skolans ramar. Studien jämför resultaten av intervjuerna både med
Den här uppsatsen undersöker Martin Luther King Juniors roll inom och bidrag till fältet för mänskliga rättigheter, och syftet med uppsatsen är att undersöka och analysera hur Martin Luther King Junior uttryckte sin förståelse för mänskliga rättigheter som ett koncept. För att uppfylla uppsatsens syfte har en frågeställning formulerats som centrerar kring Martin Luther King Juniors konceptualiseri
With the large amount of surveillance cameras in our public spaces there has been much discussion about their effects on privacy. Axis communications has an algorithm that tries to remedy this by making it hard to see who is in an image but still have it possible for a neural network to detect that there is a person present. This thesis explores how this algorithm needs to be adapted to be implem
The observed high orbital eccentricities of many giant exoplanets is thought to be the result of gravitational scattering between planets. Outcomes of planet-planet scattering can result in some planets being lost by ejections into interstellar space, or collisions between planets or with the star. The likelihood of collisions for a planet with a certain mass, increases with larger radii. After p
In the last 30 years, a new mobile communications generation has been developed every 7 to 10 years. The last one that is currently under development is the Fifth Generation. This generation aims to fulfill a wide range of requirements for different use cases. To that end, a new radio access technology called New Radio (NR) has been developed. The main design principle behind NR is to allow enoug
Indico is the main conference event manager where talks in high energy physics are published online. Indico allows to access presentation from conferences, but it does not yet organize them coherently or make them easily citable by others. To solve this, we want to write code for Indico users that saves not only presentations used during conferences but also their metadata. This will make it easie
This thesis is an extension from the thesis "To what degree is the VIX benchmark computed by CBOE representative of its definition?" presented on June 16 in 2018. The primary purpose of this thesis is to investigate a consistent way of Fourier pricing with the Heston model and whether or not the estimates can be improved by extending the amount of CIR processes in order to catch the non
In this work, two LNAs operating at a frequency around 83 GHz and 110 GHz, for satellite- and 5G applications respectively, have been designed, using vertical InGaAs nanowire transistors. In addition, a switch operating at a frequency around 110 GHz has been designed. The topology has consisted of a common source as a first stage, and a cascode as a second stage. The design and simulations of the
This is a thesis project, analysing data from high-resolution imaging observations, specifically speckle imaging, as a follow up study of exoplanet host stars observed with K2, the second operational phase of the space telescope Kepler. The project was accomplished at NASA Ames research center under the guidance of Rachel A. Matson, during an internship in collaboration with the Swedish National S
