Heterogena katalysatorer för användning i bränslecellssystem har undersökts baserat på aktiv fas och tillverkningsmetoder för granulat- och monolitkatalysatorer. Katalysatorerna tillverkades genom att använda θ – aluminiumoxid som bärare, dopad med lantan och cerium, där den aktiva fasen bestod av ädelmetall X och nickel i varierande halter. Analys gjordes genom att låta en blandning av vattenångaHeterogeneous catalysts to be used in a pre-reformer for fuel cell systems have been investigated based on active phase composition and catalyst preparation methods for granulate and monolithic catalysts. The catalysts were manufactured using θ – aluminum oxide as carrier, promoted with lanthanum and cerium, with active phases consisting of noble metal X and nickel in various concentrations. Analy
There is always a need to improve and develop new ways of estimating effective doses to people and environments that have been exposed to ionizing radiation. Dose monitoring is also important in hospitals and the nuclear industry. Today there are several commercially available dosimeters, the most common being thermoluminescent dosimeters, TLDs, made from LiF. These are widely used for personal do
For historical reasons, Swedish railways use 15 kV/16? Hz overhead contact lines for train traction, while the most common standard worldwide is 25 kV/50-60 Hz. This leads to higher investment costs for railway conversions and expansions, and to greater energy losses in the distribution of electricity to the trains. Yet to get away from these drawbacks by investing in a 25 kV/50 Hz overhead contac
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common musculoskeletal disorder that degrades articular cartilage and is a leading cause of disability worldwide. Overweight has been considered a major risk factor of knee OA, and it is known that weight loss may reduce the risk of knee OA. The biomechanical mechanisms of how weight loss affects knee cartilage are however unknown. Evaluating the biomechanics of cartilage
Background Today’s healthcare faces a transformation, driven by an ageing population and an over encumbered care and welfare sector. Self-care solutions based on emerging information and communication technologies make it possible for patients to monitor their medical conditions from home, without the direct assistance of healthcare professionals. Thereby time and resources within the healthc
Warehouses are critical nodes in a supply chain, providing a valuable interface between supply and demand. One aspect that warehouse operations struggle with is errors which, if not addressed, will impact the customers downstream from the warehouse. One of the ways to address errors in warehouses is through technology, such as automation of processes, though these are not always effective. A new t

Molnens roll i klimatsystemet har studerats och deras påverkan på solens inverkan på jordens energibalans. Jordens albedo påverkar energibalansen genom att den påverkar hur mycket av solens instrålning som reflekteras eller absorberas. Moln påverkar jordens albedo och spelar därför en viktig roll i denna balans. Molnbildning sker till nära 100% i troposfären och där finns allt det vi kallar väder.The role of clouds in the climate system has been studied and their impact on the Sun's impact on the Earth's energy balance. The Earth's albedo affects the energy balance by influencing how much of the Sun’s radiation is reflected or absorbed. Clouds affect the Earth's albedo and therefore play an important role in this balance. Cloud formation occurs almost 100% in the tropospher
Studien syftar till att ta fram rekommendationer och råd kring hur klimatpåverkan från anläggningsentreprenader kan beräknas och redovisas. Detta genom att undersöka hur andra aktörer inom branschen agerar i frågan och kartlägga modeller och verktyg för klimatberäkningar. Studien har utförts som en kombination av kvalitativa och kvantitativa forskningsmetoder, vilket kan liknas vid begreppet triaThe purpose of the study is to come up with recommendations and advice on how to calculate and present the climate impact from construction works. This will be implemented by examining how other actors within the construction industry is acting on the issue and examine models and tools for climate calculations. The study was conducted as a combination of qualitative and quantitative research meth
Det här är ett masterarbete kring relationen mellan ADHD och musik, inte inom medicin. Med arbetet vill jag lyfta upp fördelar, hyperförmågor och den stora kreativa potential som ADHD ger mig som musiker. Jag fick ADHD-diagnosen först efter flera års studier på Musikhögskolan, och hade innan dess levt 30 år med bara nackdelar med ADHD. Eftersom jag var missnöjd med medicinen tänkte jag “out of theFinding my inner Nimrud - my life as an ADHD musician This is a master's thesis on the relationship between ADHD and music, not in medicine. With this work, I aim to highlight the advantages, hyper-abilities and great creative potential that ADHD give me as a musician. I got the ADHD diagnosis after 4 years of study at the Academy of Music. Before that I lived 30 years with only the disadvanta
Association for computer aided genealogy research of Sweden(DIS) is investigating the possibility of a nationwide genealogical database (RGD) of Sweden's historical population. The finished database should contain basic information about individuals' names, birth, marriage, death, and individuals' relationships such as father, mother, husband/wife and children. This will make up a kind
Ett skatteavtals huvudobjektiv är att förhindra juridisk dubbelbeskattning för att främja den globala ekonomin. Detta har under en längre tid ansetts innebära stora möjligheter för skattesubjekt att minska, eller totalt undgå, skattebelastning. Sådana förfaranden medför skadliga effekter på den fiskala miljön och den globala ekonomin i stort. Den inneboende slitningen mellan å ena sida främjandet The main objective of a tax treaty is the avoidance of juridical double taxation in order to further the development of the global economy. Tax treaties has, however, for a long time been known to function as a vehicle for taxpayers to reduce or all together avoid taxation. Such arrangements or schemes cause adverse effects to the fiscal environment and the global economy at large. The inherent di
The European Motor Vehicle Industry is complex and plays a significant role in the economic aspects of the common market. The motor vehicles constitute an important part of everyday life for many consumers and are the second largest investment many makes. The legal framework surrounding this industry includes EU's Competition policy, which constitute the third pillar in the Single European Mar
Vid företagsförvärv är det vanligt att avtalssigneringen och tillträdet sker som två separata moment en viss tid från varandra. En viktig anledning till denna uppdelning är att det ofta föreligger lagkrav som måste vara upp-fyllda innan tillträdet, exempelvis att företagsöverlåtelsen ska godkännas av Konkurrensverket eller av bolagsstämman. Detta medför dock risker för köparen. Vem ska bära ansvarIn company acquisitions, it is common for the signing of the agreement and the transfer of ownership to take place as two separate steps at different times. A major reason for this division is that there are often legal require-ments that must be met before the transfer of ownership can occur, such as the transfer having to be approved by the Swedish Competition Authority or by the company general
Subject motion and eddy-current distortions represent significant challenges in diffusion MRI, particularly for clinical protocols utilizing "half-sphere" sampling. While the current gold standard, FSL’s eddy, employs Gaussian Process (GP) predictions to correct these artifacts, its performance can degrade under specific acquisition constraints, most notably when sampling lacks antipodal
