Popular Abstract in English There is a growing prevalence of disorders associated to the metabolic syndrome globally. To reverse this trend lifestyle changes are required. Among dietary factors, dietary fibre that is associated with several health benefits plays an interesting role. Barley is highly unutilized as human food, and it contains high amounts of dietary fibre. The composition of the barBarley is one of the most important crops in the world. Although it is mainly used as the raw material for the production of beer and animal feed, it has recently attracted interest from nutritionists and consumers, due to its high content of dietary fibre, especially β-glucan, and its relation to various positive health effects. The proposed mechanisms behind the health effects are the formation

The possibility to integrate sustainability considerations in the public procurement process has been debated over recent decades, resulting in several legislative changes. Collaboration between public and private sectors is emphasised as important in the development of sustainable public procurement but few studies focus on public-private collaboration related to sustainable public procurement. T

Background Adolescence is characterized by large bodily changes and a heightened body-focus. It is also a sensitive period for the onset of various forms of psychopathology. Previous longitudinal studies have shown that body dissatisfaction is a predictor of disordered eating, non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI), and depression among adolescents. Body dissatisfaction, however, only represents one aspe

Purpose The purpose of this thesis is to study if and how institutional investors have any impact on shareholder value and operating performance on the Swedish market. The tested explanatory variables are institutional investors grouped in different ways depending on their attributes, firm size, board size and board structure, leverage, firm size, share turnover and stock volatility. Theoretical

Home care has been associated with time pressure and extensive waiting times, affecting care users’ ability to manage their daily activities. In 2023, one Swedish municipality started offering ‘video visits’ to complement home visits. However, little is known about the implications of this type of digital technology for care users’ waiting experiences. This article aims to understand how care user

Ultrashort laser pulses play an important role in many applications in science and technology, from attosecond science to time resolved spectroscopy and material processing. For applications of ultrashort laser pulses, it requires a complete characterization of the electric field of the pulse, which includes both phase and amplitude of the electric field. The characterization of ultrashort laser pThe human eye can clearly observe movements as fast as around 0.1 seconds long, but how can we observe the movement that is way too fast for the human eye? For example, you can barely read any labels from a really fast moving formula 1 car. However, if we use a camera which can act faster than the human eye, we can capture the images of the moving object. When a camera takes a picture, it records

Accidents nearby work zones are a persistent road safety problem in many European countries. The Conference of European Directors of Roads (CEDR) has initiated and finances the IRIS project (Incursion Reduction to Increase Safety in road work zones) with the aim to collect and share information about best practices in temporary traffic management at road works. An analysis of work zone accidents a

Through the national innovation program Viable Cities, the City of Malmö and the City of Lund in the Region Skåne of southern Sweden have recently undertaken a mission to become climate-neutral by 2030, requiring the commitment and participation of the entire local, urban system in the pursuit and uptake of bottom-up, radical solutions. While small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) make up the

This study focuses on quantitative long-term effects of SupplementalInstruction (SI) in terms of graduation and dropout rates. One of the main aimsof SI is to introduce students to effective study strategies and techniques. If SIis introduced at an early stage for new students in higher education, it shouldtherefore be expected that this action will promote timely graduation. This hasalso been ind

The development of cognitive robots in ROS still lacks the support of some key components: a knowledge integration framework and a framework for autonomous mission execution. In this research chapter, we will discuss our skill-based platform SkiROS, that was developed on top of ROS in order to organize robot knowledge and its behavior. We will show how SkiROS offers the possibility to integrate diThe development of cognitive robots in ROS still lacks the support of some key components: a knowledge integration framework and a framework for autonomous mission execution.

In order to build an efficient transportation system of the future, public transport needs to be an attractive alternative offering a high quality travel experience. Future digital information systems for public buses will enrich the travelers experience by delivering relevant content - accurately on the right time and place. In this master thesis, design and implementation of an improved bus posi

Föreliggande undersökning syftar till att utvärdera möjligheten att använda bioimpedansspektrometri för att mäta tumör- och vävnadsrespons på strålterapi. Bioimpedansmätningar utförda med CythorLab ™ utrustade med en signalgenerator med en känd högutgångsimpedans och signalmätanordning som kan mäta spänningen som appliceras av generatorn. Styrenheten utlöser signalgeneratorn som genererar en MLS-sThe present investigation aims to evaluate the possibility of using bio-impedance spectrometry to measure tumour and tissue response to radiation therapy. Bio -impedance measurements performed with CythorLab™ equipped with a signal generator with a known high output impedance and signal measuring device able to measure the voltage applied by the generator.

Too dangerous to forget – a semiotic and contextual study of the memorial Romanoparken – Sång om en plats This essay examines the memorial Romanoparken – Sång om en plats (2020), which embodies Roma memories. However, there are risks with memorials when they take the material form of a monument that they are seen as completed actions and the completion can lead to distancing oneself from the
