This study presents a coupled model incorporating a thermal propagation model and a fire model to investigate the fire safety of a large lithium-ion battery (Li-ion) module. The thermal propagation model employs a three-dimensional (3D) finite element method (FEM), while the fire model utilizes computational fluid dynamics (CFD). Literature data on material properties and thermal runaway character
Hydrogenation is a universal reaction, which is widely used in industry and academy. However, the reaction is not easy to be studied in extreme conditions such as high temperature and high pressure. On top of that, using Raman spectroscopy to observe the reaction is not so customary. Due to these aspects, the experiment was carried out. During the working process, the degradation reaction was also
In mathematical education it is crucial to have a good teaching plan and to execute it correctly. In particular, this is true in the field of numerical analysis. Every teacher has a different style of teaching. This thesis studies how the basic material of a particular topic in numerical analysis was developed in four different textbooks. We compare and evaluate this process in order to achieve a
With sustainability at the forefront of many cities’ urban development plans, it is possible that sustainable polices are targeted to attract a certain group of inhabitants. Malmö, Sweden, has implemented changes in order to gain international recognition as a green city but has also been experiencing growing residential segregation. The presence of urban greening projects is a keystone to human h
The increased capacity of elementary particle accelerators raises the demand for the simulation data of the experiments. One of the bottlenecks in the simulations is the QCD color structure calculation, which is usually treated using non-orthogonal and overcomplete sets of bases. The computational cost could be decreased significantly if orthogonal bases, such as the multiplet bases, were used ins
Purpose: The purpose of this study is trying to understand which elements are essential to obtain loyalty in the alcoholic beverage industry and how companies can focus their branding efforts on these drivers of loyalty. Methodology: A literature review is conducted to identify the key drivers which can influence brand loyalty. These drivers are then analysed by researching two case studies, Hein
Since 1992 the European Union has been granting certificates attesting the veracity and legitimacy of products in all of the EU. Such certificates are a symbol of the importance given by the European Union to the protection of regional products against falsifications of unique foodstuff products and the maintenance of good reputation of rural producers and rural areas. There is, however, a great
In spite of the modernization of obstetrics in Tamil Nadu, the rural women still adhere to several traditional beliefs and practices, in regard to childbearing and postpartum. The varieties of non-biomedical practices were used in attempt to ensure a risk-free delivery and the birth of a healthy baby, although the collected data shows that some of them are harmful. To understand why the rural wome
The usage of yeast in conventional brewing techniques involving alcoholic fermentation is an age-old process. Analyzing the viability and obtaining physiological information regarding the microbial diversity of the fermentation samples plays a pivotal role in obtaining real-time information as well as developing a more efficient process design. While traditionally, methods like methylene blue cell
Background: There is a need to develop methods of determining concentration and purity for two new affinity ligands, protein T and protein H, in order to ensure the quality of an industrial production of said proteins. Aims: To develop a High Performance Size Exclusion Chromatography, HPSEC, method to determine concentration and purity of protein T and to improve an existing HPSEC method for
Modern cellular radio base stations (RBS) employ beamforming to dynamically steer radio frequency (RF) energy toward active users. This adaptive transmission produces significant angular and temporal variations in the equivalent isotropically radiated power (EIRP). To account for these variations, electromagnetic field (EMF) compliance assessment of RBSs rely on the usage of the EIRP envelope toge
This thesis investigates whether integrating technical market data with fundamental accounting variables improves the out-of-sample predictability of stock returns in the highly liquid S&P 100 universe. Using an expanding window approach from 2010 to 2024, the study compares the performance of regularized linear (Ridge Regression) and non-linear (Histogram Gradient Boosting) estimators against
The aim of this research is to study three particle correlations in pseudo-rapidity for the $\Lambda^0$,$\Xi^0$, and $\Omega^-$ hyperons with a focus on their baryon and strangeness quantum numbers. The two primary questions asked are, into which particles are these quantum numbers typically conserved, and what are their correlations in momentum space. The research investigates these problems by e
Populationen av västerländska akademiker och studenter visar tecken på ideologisk bias i termer av sin sammansättning och villighet att självcensurera. Denna studie undersökte en svensk population av studenter (N = 89), huvudsakligen från samhällsvetenskapliga områden, i termer av ideologi (Moral Foundations; MFQ-20 och Social Dominance Orientation; S-SDO). Studien undersökte också relationen mellThe population of western scholars and students shows signs of ideological bias in terms of its composition and willingness to self-censor. This study surveyed a Swedish student population (N =89) of predominantly social scientists on ideology (Moral Foundations; MFQ-20 and Social Dominance Orientation; S-SDO). The study also explored the relation between self-censorship (SC), age, gender and univ
This thesis project explores the significance of public spaces in shaping society, culture, and individual identity, emphasizing their role in promoting democratic values and self-realization. Public spaces, such as squares and marketplaces, serve as platforms for social interaction, economic activity, and cultural continuity. The design of these spaces reflects societal values and historical cont
In the pharmaceutical industry when proteins are being formed, the solution often consists of different kinds of proteins and these have to be separated to a high degree. A common process for this is chromatography. In this work a system of chromatography columns were coupled in series to separate a mixture of three proteins. The system consisted of three chromatography columns with mixers in betw
The purpose of this study was to gain a greater understanding on how healthcare workers, particularly caregivers of elderly and dementia patients, are impacted by a Mindfulness-based Stress Reduction (MBSR) training and to explore the reasons a manager has for incorporating these types of trainings. Within the scope of this qualitative study, we conducted semi-structured interviews with nine careg
European policymakers are increasingly interested in encouraging and supporting social entrepreneurship. Addressing the goal, this thesis analyses the relationship between human capital and an individual’s propensity for social entrepreneurship in European countries. Additionally, it is investigated how institutional environment moderates this relationship. Utilising a dataset of the Global Entrep
Introduction: Validation of a new test method to determine nicotine from chewing gum extracts with ultra high-performance liquid chromatography. Background: In Quality Control-laboratories, the methods that are regularly used are consistently developed in order to conduct effective analysis procedures. The aim of all of these developments is to simplify the analysis as much as possible and make t
Thermal comfort is a topic that for the last century has interested designers and researchers. European and International standards have given guidelines for assessment of thermal comfort in typical indoor environments for long occupancy, however the transitory spaces and semi-external spaces have not been addressed. Available literature was reviewed and summarize to find appropriate methods for a
