Aerotaxy offers an alternative method for the manufacturing of semiconductor nanowires. Instead of seeding growth on an expensive substrate, aerosol seed particles act as the catalyst for the Vapor–Liquid–Solid growth in a hot flow through reactor. This thesis investigates the possibility of self-seeded GaAs nanowires grown from Ga seed particles replacing the regularly employed Au, hence eliminat

The claim regarding requestive sentences, made by bot
The choice of which potential evapotranspiration (PET) model to use when estimating streamflow using a rainfall-runoff model have been the topic of many studies. The aim with this thesis was to assess the robustness of six different PET models using HBV-light as rainfall-runoff model over three catchments in Sweden. The robustness was evaluated by using a differential split sample test (DSST) base
Syftet med studien är att undersöka hur redovisningskonsulten upplever förändringar i sin yrkesroll till följd av digitaliseringen, och vilken påverkan digitala instrument har på hur god redovisningssed efterföljs inom redovisningsbranschen.

Spökmål har försvårat radarövervakning sedan dess begynnelse, och i stadsmiljö är problemet ännu större. Med hjälp av maskininlärning verkar en lösning vara inom räckhåll. Radar har länge använts för att övervaka stora områden, exempelvis flygplatser eller länders luftrum. Inom övervakningsindustrin har man på senare år även börjat erbjuda mindre radarenheter med kortare räckvidd, då deras styrkoIn surveillance contexts, radars can be used to monitor an area, detecting and tracking moving objects inside it. Monitored areas in urban environments often contain many surfaces that reflect radar waves, which can have the undesired consequence of a single object producing multiple tracks due to multipath propagation effects. This thesis considers a method of identifying if a track is produced b
In modern state-development it is common practice to use one language for unifying people in a nation or region. However, in the wake of decolonisation, many African states found themselves struggling with the decision to pick a national language.
