This thesis investigates the impact of varying passive components on the stability of a Formula Student race car. The study was conducted using a 7-post model and a lateral model, both of which were derived using Lagrangian methods and state-space modelling techniques. These models were then validated and adjusted using logged data. The 7-post model was verified through damper displacement and dam

Klimatförändringarna påverkar vår värld och det behövs ett mer hållbart samhälle. Flygindustrin är i behov av förändring, men flygmotorer är mycket komplexa och tar tid att utveckla. Termoakustiska instabiliteter har kraften att förstöra en motor, men också att minska miljöpåverkan. Samtidigt möjliggör ökad beräkningskraft i moderna datorkluster att detaljerade simuleringar kan utföras för att stuClimate change is affecting our world and a more sustainable society is needed. The aviation industry is in need of change but aero-engines are very complex and take time to develop. Thermoacoustic instabilities have the power to destroy an engine, but also to reduce the environmental impact. At the same time, increasing computational power allows detailed simulations to be executed in order to st

Studies and public health reports indicate that newly arrived refugees in Sweden experience poorer health and well-being compared to the general population, particularly among women. Research has also demonstrated that migrants' health not only starts off deprived upon arrival but also deteriorates over time. This thesis investigates the health challenges faced by immigrant women in Malmö and

This research aims to explore how identity is shaped through the consumption of film cameras. Identity can be formed in numerous ways, through norms and values, social relationships, and much more. In the digital era, there is a lot of pressure on creating and maintaining identity quickly, as social media speeds up identity building practices. To explore how identity can be shaped through physical

Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka tonårstjejers relation till kroppen utifrån konceptet kroppslighet, på engelska “embodiment”. Elva högstadieelever av kvinnligt kön i åldern 14-15 år intervjuades om upplevelser och förändringar kopplat till sin relation till kroppen. Intervjumaterialet analyserades i en reflexiv tematisk analys som resulterade i tre huvudteman med två underteman var. Det The aim of this study was to explore adolescent girls’ relationships to their body through the concept of embodiment. Eleven female junior high school students aged 14-15 years old were interviewed about their experiences and perceived changes connected to their relationship with their body. The data was then analyzed in a reflexive thematic analysis resulting in three main themes with two subthem

There is a growing demand for environmentally friendly food packaging. Studies and trends show that the modern consumers are willing to pay more money for food products if the packaging has lower carbon footprint. Furthermore, to be competitive, food packaging must be both visually striking and user friendly. It needs to differentiate from other multipacks and have enough shelf impact to stand out

When a↵ected by a high spinal cord injury the first wish is to regain the ability to walk. However, in a short matter of time, the wish to use the hands increases and is considered the most desired ability to recover. The injured nerves cannot be healed, but with the use of AI technology and sensors, small preserved muscle activities can be detected. The company Tendo AB has developed a gripping a

Bakgrund: En förutsättning för ett gott aktivitetsengagemang är att personens omgivning motsvarar dennes förutsättningar och behov. Stigma kring psykisk ohälsa är ett komplext sociokulturellt fenomen som har negativ inverkan på aktivitetsmöjligheter inom olika livsområden. Syfte: Att undersöka hur upplevelser av stigma inverkar på aktivitetsengagemang hos vuxna med erfarenhet av psykisk ohälsa. MeBackground: A prerequisite for occupational engagement is that the environment matches the individuals’ needs and conditions. Stigma surrounding mental illness is a complex sociocultural phenomenon that can impact the individuals’ occupational possibilities in different areas of life. Aim: To examine the experience of how stigma impacts the occupational engagement in adults with mental illness. Me

Food packaging has long been recognized as a potential environmental burden within the food supply chain, with packaging production and waste often considered as key contributors to the overall environmental impact. However, there is a growing recognition of the need for a more holistic approach to assess the environmental performance of food packaging, taking into account various factors that inf

Using data from the Health Behaviour in School-aged Children survey on smoking behaviors for roughly 440,000 European youths over the years 2001-2018, we show that a one euro increase in cigarette excise taxes reduces smoking prevalence (share of children who has smoked) by 2 percentage points using a two-way fixed effects model. This translates to a participation elasticity of -0.1, implying yout

Uppsatsen ägnar sig åt att undersöka de rättsliga möjligheterna för barnmorskor att utöva samvetsfrihet i samband med abortingrepp. I motsats till många europeiska länder saknar Sverige en lagstiftning som reglerar samvetsklausuler inom abortvården. För att undersöka barnmorskors rättsliga stöd för samvetsfrihet i yrkeslivet granskas relevanta rättskällor såsom regeringsformen, diskrimineringslageThe thesis examines the legal possibilities for midwives to exercise conscientious objection in relation to abortion procedures. Unlike many European countries, Sweden lacks legislation regulating conscientious clauses in abortion care. To explore the legal support for midwives' conscientious objection in their professional life, relevant legal sources such as the Constitution, Discrimination

The exact solution to a set of equations modeling the event-triggered control of a multi-agent system is derived and computed up to a specified error on the time between events. An attempt to minimize the number of events of the solution subject to bounds on overshoot and convergence time is made using a differential evolution method. Parameter points which result in a low number of events of the

The drinking water infrastructure is among our most critical infrastructures and hence it is important for society to secure. Today, there is a lot of critical infrastructures that are dependent on different conditions to uphold its functionality. These critical infrastructures are often interdependent as well. This Master Thesis aims to examine how the preparedness within the Swedish drinking wat

CO oxidation over Pd(100) is studied with ambient pressure x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (APXPS). Cyclic gas composition pulsing of the CO:O2 ratio, combined with a new method using software based event-averaging by image recognition over many pulses, is used to improve the signal-to-noise ratio substantially. Hereby, it becomes possible to follow the dynamics of Pd(100) restructuring between a

types of B-cell lymphomas. However, the role of MYC in mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), a clinically diverse and incurable disease, needs to be further elucidated. The aim of this study is to evaluate MYC mRNA deregulation and explore the mechanism behind PLK-1 induced cell death, as a target for MYC-driven MCL. To achieve this, RNAscope® is used to detect and quantify MYC mRNA expression in a populati

A crucial yet unanswered question in the entrepreneurial domain is why men tend to receive more venture capital funding than women. As venture capitalists act as critical gatekeepers who ultimately decide whose ideas, innovations, and products will get a fair chance (Chilazi, 2019), female entrepreneurs have a lower chance of succeeding with their high-growth ventures. This research aims to furthe

This paper examines the effect a membership in the EMU would have on the Swedish economy. This is done by using the synthetic control method where a synthetical Sweden is created and compared with actual Sweden. Synthetic Sweden is created by 11 donor pool countries, which are the 11 countries that joined the EMU in 1999. Using GDP per capita and Export as a percentage of GDP as dependent variable
