The name Upconverting nanoparticles refers to a novel category of luminescence emitters that are capable of generating visible luminescence upon excitation with noncoherent and longer wavelength monochromatic near-infrared light, at excitation fluence rates as low as 1-103 W/cm2. This unique optical behaviour is of great interest to researchers as it could potentially allow for virtually autofluor
Human interference with the climate system imposes a significant threat to the future capacity of ecosystems to sustain ecosystem services vital for food production. Agroecology is increasingly seen a way to meet these challenges. The aim of this study is to investigate if the IPCC conceptual model of Climate Resilient Pathways (CRP) could be adapted to a food system context, by illustrating an ag

This essay aims to analyze Richard Swinburne's theistic description of God and investigate whether it is excluding from a feministic perspective. The foundation of this work is built upon the contemporary religio-philosophical debate that criticizes the philosophical work that has transpired since the enlightenment for its unilateral approach and it’s excluding nature. According to current phi
Following a long-standing sociolinguistic pursuit to investigate language policy through complex non-linear models that analyze historical, structural, political and social processes that produce, contextualize, circulate and negotiate particular ideologies, beliefs and myths about languages and their values through meaning-making activities, this master’s thesis aims to apply an interpretive appr
This thesis aims to present different ways of handling the vibrations for large displacement single cylinder engines (test beds). These test beds are used for development purposes at Scania. The imbalances causing the vibrations are discretized which are then suppressed using counter weights and carefully designed balance shafts. It is found that with some unconventional designs, balance shafts ca
In recent years, several interesting wearable products which originates from smartphone technology have been introduced on the market. One of these products which has increased in interest, but not yet received a commercial breakthrough, is smart glasses. As the technology is still young and undeveloped, few players have embarked on the market and there is still room for improvement. In this thesi
The latest standard within video compression, HEVC/H.265, was released during 2013 and provides a significant improvement from its predecessor AVC/H.264. However, with a constantly increasing demand for high denition video and streaming of large video files, there are still improvements that can be done. Difficult content in video sequences, for example smoke, leaves and water that moves irregular
The main aim of this study is to answer the hypothesis that Judy Chicago's 1971 photolithograph "Red Flag", along with her academic career, can be seen as an answer to the new approach to art history and what defines art, that Linda Nochlin calls for in her essay "Why have there been no great women artists?". The analysis of "Red Flag", which depicts a bloodfille
Since the 1990-s music has become more and more polished, to the point where it is almost too perfect. Are we obsessed with perfection, both in structure and pitch? Auto-tune, playback and excessive compression are tools used in all genres, but most commonly seen in pop music. What is the fascination with everything being perfect and flawless? Is not the human part of music important today? This

Sequentially, this will serve as an example how video game
I denna studie undersöktes om patienter med borderline personlighetsstörning uppvisade svårigheter när det gällde förmågan till spatial koherens och därmed förmågan att föreställa sig nya upplevelser och om det fanns något samband mellan denna hippocampalt medierade förmåga till spatial koherens och mentaliseringsförmåga. I studien deltog patienter med borderline personlighetsstörning (n = 4) och This study examined whether patients with borderline personality disorder exhibited difficulties concerning spatial coherence and thereby the ability to imagine new experiences and if spatial coherence mediated by the hippocampus correlated with the ability to mentalize. Patients with borderline personality disorder (n = 4) and healthy controls (n = 10) took part in the study. The results showed t
Faster development of new products and shorter product life cycles increases the frequency of product removals. Despite its increasing presence, product removal tends to be neglected both in theory and in practice. When the product removal process is overlooked, it might induce customer dissatisfaction and unnecessary costs. The product removal process is the implementation of the product eliminat
