Noggrannhet av RTK-GPS-positionering av enskilda frön vid precisionssådd

Enligt EU-direktiv måste fler tekniska lösningar introduceras i lantbruket med bakgrund till de ökande miljökrav och ekonomiska påtryckningar i världen. Som svar på detta har redan tekniskt styrda radrensare och styrd besprutning börjat etableras på marknaden. Till skillnad från individuella plantvårdssystem som kamerastyrda radhackor, kan GPS-styrda system identifiera fröpositioner innan uppkomstWith higher demands on farmers to reduce the usage of fertilizers and pes ti cides because of their negative environmental impact, as well as the rising prices of resources required for agriculture, precision agriculture has become a big focus in today’s agriculture research. Individual plant care systems are a big part of precision agriculture, and accurate information about the po si tions of in

Innovation Investments During The COVID-19 Pandemic

The authors of this paper identified a gap in the debate revolving around innovation during a crisis and recognized the importance of exploring whether being highly innovative is universally desirable across all sectors during times of crisis. While previous research has emphasized the positive impact of innovation on performance, it is essential to investigate the negative impact of innovation an

Att bemötas olika

Idag är mer än hälften av svenskarna överviktiga. Samtidigt som övervikten ökar, får vi dagligen information om hur vi bör se ut. Den smala kroppen exemplifieras oftast som idealet och tidigare forskning visar hur tjocka personer stigmatiseras konsekvent. Syftet med denna studie är att undersöka detta fenomen genom överviktsopererade kvinnors egna upplevelser av skillnader i bemötandet. Vidare vil

Inskränkning i yttrandefriheten?: En rättssociologisk studie om attityder kring koranbränningar

The aim of this study is to investigate the latest events regarding the burning of the Koran in Sweden. The discussion on the subject began in 2022, along with the Easter riots, and after the police granted permission for the burning of the Koran outside the Turkish embassy in early 2023, international criticism of Sweden arose. This study investigates what kind of legal alternatives police have

The ito element: unravelling the thread in kanji

This paper is the first exhaustive investigation of a single kanji component: the ito element. Although, this element generally refers to thread or textile, the study examined this relationship and found a strong relationship to silk, cocoons, and craft—particularly weaving. A surprising find was the connection to dyeing/colour, which might not be obvious to the average student of Japanese. Moreov

Använda DNA från släktforskning för att lösa brott?: En innehållsanalys av nyhetsrapportering om dubbelmordet i Linköping

On the 19 of October 2004 two people in Linköping, Sweden were murdered. Police secured DNA from the perpetrator, however it could not further the investigation since the DNA was not in the police registry. The case remained cold until 2020 when a new method of ancestral DNA was used, referred to as IGG. The method was previously tested in the USA and solved plenty of cold cases. The double homici

Imitation and Protest: Two Case Studies of Depictions of Marriage in Anne Brontë and Olive Schreiner

Literature has long been an effective vehicle for conveying women’s morals and opinions when they have otherwise been ignored and supressed. Fifty years apart, Anne Brontë and Olive Schreiner wrote fiction critical of different aspects of marriage with noticeably different results and conclusions. This project aims to investigate the basis for these differences by using Elaine Showalter’s idea of

Beyond the Green: Exploring how municipalities consider the planning and implementation of nature-based solutions

Nature-based solutions (NbS) are gaining popularity as tools to address societal challenges while providing social, economic, and environmental benefits. Given that NbS is a relatively new concept, there is a lack of guidance on how NbS in urban areas can be adapted to fit their socio-spatial context and provide benefits. This research uses an exploratory comparative case study between Rotterdam,

Sensorless Field-Oriented Control and Position Estimation

This master's thesis investigates the feasibility of implementing field-oriented control for a BLDC motor without relying on a position sensor from a standstill up to 400 rad/s. To achieve this objective, various approaches were used at standstill and high speeds. The high-frequency injection method was used at standstill and lower speeds, while a method based on estimated magnetic flux was ut

Understanding the effects of TCP-25 and EDTA interaction : A study of the biophysical aspects of a naturally derived peptide formulation with EDTA for topical application

Kroniska sår är sår som inte lyckas att läka över en lång tidsperiod. De karaktäriseras av kolonisering av bakterier vilka bildar en så kallad biofilm som ger upphov till ökat motstånd mot behandling. De behandlingsmetoder som finns idag mot kroniska sår är inte fulländade, då stor risk för resistens finns samt att de inte kan förstöra biofilmen. Idag är över 40 miljoner människor drabbade av kronChronic wounds are an emerging healthcare issue and current methods of healing chronic wounds address bacteria but are ineffective against resistant bacteria and the biofilm formation commonly observed in these wounds. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) derived from the endogenous wound healing system have been shown to combat bacterial infections, exhibit immunomodulatory effects, as well as improvi

Plank

The objective of this project was to design a casual dinner chair for smaller cafes and restaurants that prioritize locally produced ingredients and want to reflect that in their interior design. The aim was to use locally sourced materials from southern Sweden, integrate design and construction to simplify the manufacturing process, and reduce material waste. Additionally, the distribution of the

Arbetsterapeuters samkonstruktion med barn med autismspektrumdiagnos för att främja deras delaktighet i interventioner

Bakgrund: Barn ska få vara delaktiga och få anpassat stöd för att uttrycka sig i sin intervention.
