The purpose of this study is to put focus at the most relevant areas of a business model for power distribution to real estates in a context of technology, electricity market and customer input. By taking a closer look at new energy technology and the electricity market in Sweden – complemented with insights from a number of interviews with potential customers in the form of real estate companies
Current advances in Deep Learning have shown significant improvements in common Machine Learning applications such as image, speech and text recognition. Specifically, in order to process time series, deep Neural Networks (NNs) with Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) units are widely used in sequence recognition problems to store recent information and to use it for future predictions. The efficiency i
BACKGROUND: The isolation of cell-free DNA (cfDNA) from the bloodstream can be used to detect and analyze somatic alterations in circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA), and multiple cfDNA-targeted sequencing panels are now commercially available for Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved biomarker indications to guide treatment. More recently, cfDNA fragmentation patterns have emerged as a tool to inf
Thermal radiation sometimes is the dominating heat transfer mode in combustion chambers and furnaces and therefore in the design of many relevant industrial facilities prediction of it is necessary. During previous years many research efforts in the radiative heat transfer field have originated and many methods and models from simple to complex have been developed. However, the field is still open
The unison songs has united people about common goals and experiences in the three great folk movements in Sweden, the Revivalist movement, the Temperance movement and the Socialist movement, especially during the most expansive period, 1850-1920. The aim/purpose of my investigation has been to examine how the different ideolgies are breaking against each other in the songs published for unison so
Popular Abstract in Swedish Stjärnors radialhastigheter har i mer än ett sekel haft betydelse för studiet av Vintergatans och stjärnhoparnas kinematik. Radialhastigheten är den hastighet en stjärna, eller ett annat objekt, har längs synlinjen från en given observatör. Hittills har radialhastigheter bestämts med hjälp av spektroskopi, genom att observera spektrallinjer vars vilovåglängder är kända.This work demonstrates the determination of absolute stellar radial velocities from geometrical principles, i.e. using astrometry. Such `astrometric radial velocities' are obtained independently of spectroscopic information. While spectroscopic radial velocities are affected by line shifts from astrophysical processes on the stellar surfaces, by gravitational redshift and various other effects, as
Popular Abstract in Swedish En mängd epidemiologiska studier har visat att fuktskador i bostaden eller på arbetsplatsen ökar risken för olika typer av hälsobesvär, t.ex. astmatiska och allergiska besvär. Exakt vad som emitteras och orsakar dessa symptom i fuktskadade byggnader är inte känt, men både kemiska och mikrobiologiska agens är misstänkta. Vidare finns behov av bättre metoder för att identIt has been shown in a large number of scientific studies that living or working in a building with mould and moisture damage increases the risk for asthmatic and allergic symptoms. However, there is a need to establish more valid methods to obtain a more nuanced picture of the wide range of different types of moisture related problems. Furthermore, the causal relationships and the biological mech
Popular Abstract in Swedish Spårbarhet av livsmedel för att garantera ursprung, kvalitet och säkerhet i samband med produktion och transport har blivit alltmer uppmärksammat i samhället. Kraven på att livsmedel skall vara kvalitetsmässigt säkerställda samt miljömässigt hållbara har vuxit sig starkare från konsumenter såväl som från myndigheter. En bidragande orsak är den ökade fokuseringen kring bFood traceability is gaining increased attention in food companies and governmental authorities. This is because of the increase in legal and consumer requirements on ensuring food safety, quality and preservation of living resources. These requirements especially apply to the management of food traceability in regulated fresh food supply chains. Several studies have shown that management of food
The EU's farmers are no longer required to produce commodities to receive direct payments as long as they keep their land in good condition. Some believe this is bad for development because it encourages passive farming. We evaluate, using a real options approach, the implications of decoupled payments for the desirability and optimal timing of agricultural land development when considering sunk i
OBJECTIVES: To simplify the previously published Nottingham 12-year risk prediction model for knee osteoarthritis (OA) and examine whether it can be used to predict the 40-year risk of knee OA in young men.METHODS: We included 40 118 men aged 18 undergoing military conscription in Sweden 1969-70. Diagnostic OA codes were obtained from the Swedish National Patient Register 1987-2010. The original N
Psoriasis (PSO) and psoriatic arthritis (PsA) are two related chronic inflammatory diseases. A proportion of people with PSO also develop PsA. PSO and PsA seem to have multiple impacts; from the health and well-being of the individual; to the need for healthcare resources for disease management; to the loss of productivity. Compared with other chronic diseases, such as heart disease and diabetes,
Background: The protein C anticoagulant system plays a key role in maintaining the hemostatic balance. Although several studies have identified thrombomodulin gene (THBD) variants among venous thromboembolism (VTE) patients, the role of THBD in relation to VTE in humans remains to be clarified. Objectives: This study aimed to determine the thrombotic risk of rare and common THBD variants in a larg
BACKGROUND: The risk of venous thromboembolism is high after total hip arthroplasty and could persist after hospital discharge. Our aim was to compare the use of rivaroxaban for extended thromboprophylaxis with short-term thromboprophylaxis with enoxaparin.METHODS: 2509 patients scheduled to undergo elective total hip arthroplasty were randomly assigned, stratified according to centre, with a comp
This paper examines the bus rapid transit (BRT) legacies of mega sporting events (MSEs) held in the Global South cities of Cape Town and Rio de Janeiro. It discusses the extent to which these transport systems have been operationally sustainable, post-MSE; in other words, their ability to be maintained at a certain rate or level and hence their ability to act as public good as planned and accordin
I denna rapport redovisas populationstrender för 168 svenska fågelarter för åren 1975–2012. Fåglarna har räknats på vintern och på sommaren enligt strikt standardiserade metoder. Sommar- respektive vinterpunktrutter har räknats sedan 1975, i huvudsak i södra Sverige. Standardrutterna räknas också på sommaren (sedan 1996) men täcker hela Sverige. Vintern 2011/2012 räknades 180 000 fåglar av 134 artWe present the results of the Swedish Bird Survey, run by the Department of Biology, Lund University, as a part of the National Monitoring Programme of the Swedish Environmental Protection Agency. The results for 2012 include data from 625 winter point count routes in 2011/2012 (37th winter), of which 306 were carried out during the Christmas/New Year count and 263 summer point count routes (38th
