Varje dag transporteras det en mängd olika farliga ämnen på våra vägar. Ämnena kan ha en mängd olika egenskaper som gör att de kan vara farliga för både människor och miljön ifall det sker en olycka med transporten och ämnena släpps ut. Därför är det viktigt att man planerar samhället på ett klokt sätt så att skadorna inte blir så stora ifall en olycka sker. Till exempel ska man inte bygga bostädeA novel calculation model for estimating the frequency of accidents involving transport of dangerous goods on road links is proposed. It has been developed through a design process using background knowledge gathered through study and analysis of literature and through interviews with people having expertise within the field. The purpose of the model is to be used for risk analysis in societal pla

The Catholic Church has for a long time been a strong actor with many facets. The majority of the Latin American countries have a strong link between the church and the state. In El Salvador, one of the poorest countries in Central America, the Catholic Church also played a large role during the civil war, not only in religious terms but also to a certain extent in terms of politics. Historically

Bröstcancer är den vanligaste cancerformen bland kvinnor. För att kunna utröna viktiga mekanismer involverade i uppkomsten och framfarten av bröstcancer, och därigenom kunna utveckla nya behandlingsformer, är det viktigt att ha tillgång till tillförlitliga och enkla metoder för beredning och analys av cellprover. I Sverige förväntas uppemot var tionde kvinna att drabbas av bröstcancer innan 75 åTo expand knowledge on the mechanisms of breast cancer, the most prevalent cancer in women, the development of new and reliable technologies are of great interest. Phosphoproteome analysis of breast cancer cell lines can reveal important cellular processes active in different subtypes of the disease, and contribute to the understanding of breast cancer progression. Here, different sample preparati

Ambulanssjukvård är en verksamhet som under de senaste decennierna successivt ombildats från att huvudsakligen transportera patienter till vårdinrättningar till att idag vara en viktig vårdgivande aktör i mobiliseringen av prehospital akutsjukvård. För att ambulanspersonal ska kunna uppfylla deras utökade arbetsuppgifter och bibehålla god patientsäkerhet i takt med ökade påfrestningar på hela ambuThe operations of emergency medical services have in the past few decades undergone a transformation from mainly transporting patients to health facilities to being a key care-giving contributor in the mobilization of prehospital care. In order for paramedics to fulfill their expanded set of tasks while maintaining good patient safety concurrently with increasing demands on the emergency medical s

In 2012, Mulberry, a well-established British fashion brand recognised for its leadership in the affordable luxury category appointed a new CEO. This CEO aspired to reposition the brand to a target a more premium segment. The aftermath of this repositioning saw the resignation of Mulberry’s creative director, a downturn in customer patronage and several profit warnings. So what should Mulberry do

Tvångsäktenskap är ett av de nyaste brotten som har prövats som brott mot mänskligheten vid en internationell domstol. Under inbördeskriget i Sierra Leone kallades offer för sexuellt våld ofta för ‘bush wives’ eller för ‘rebel wives’. Specialdomstolen för Sierra Leone (SCSL) var den första internationella brottsdomstolen som åtalade, prövade och dömde personer för ’tvångsäktenskap’ som ett brott mForced marriage is one of the newest crimes to be tried as a crime against humanity before an international court. During the Sierra Leone civil war, victims of sexual violence were often referred to as ‘bush wives’ or ‘rebel wives’. The Special Court for Sierra Leone (SCSL) was the first international criminal tribunal to charge, try and convict persons for forced marriage as a crime against huma

Since its foundation, one of the main purposes of the European Union has been to create a single market where goods and services, as well as people, can move freely between Member States without internal borders nor other regulatory obstacles. Common intellectual property legislation is necessary as most goods and services indeed rely on intellectual property. This is particularly true for trade m

We live in a world where people move in-between countries every day, every month, every year. Family, work, education, those are only some of the motivators for getting out of the comfort zone and starting a new adventure, sometimes even abroad. This dissertation investigates students and how they handle the furniture of their private living spaces during their time in academic mobility. Academic

Titel: Den studerande musikern – en studie om motsättningarna mellan att vara musikerstudent och musiker I denna studie undersöks motsättningar som kan uppstå när musikerstudenter parallellt med studierna arbetar som musiker; vad det finns för motsättningar, hur dessa motsättningar påverkar studenter och hur motsättningarna skulle kunna förebyggas. Alumner och personal från Musikhögskolan i MalmöTitle: The studying musician – a study about the contradictions between being a music student and being a musician In this study, contradictions that can occur when music students work as musicians simultaneously, are investigated; what contradictions there are, what impact they have on students and how they could be prevented. Alumni and staff from Malmö Academy of Music were interviewed. The re

Selectively retrieving memories can lead to forgetting of related, but irrelevant memories. The forgetting of competing memories has been seen in several behavioral studies, but neural evidence of the process underlying this finding are scarce. One hypothesis is that the brain handles competition at retrieval by inhibition of the competing items to facilitate target retrieval. The effect of this i

The purpose of this paper is to examine five strategies to practice more effectively. Classical musicians, especially pianists, have to spend a lot of time practicing and it is important to make sure that the practice is effective. This paper has the following aims: to improve practicing skills and practice more effectively by developing two old strategies, memorization, and self-recording as well

I detta arbete utforskar jag hur jag går tillväga att med hjälp av musikteoretiska analyser skriva pastisch i en stil jag inte tidigare har studerat eller har någon djupare kännedom om. Målet har varit att komponera ett stycke i en specifik stil, i det här fallet en musettevals. Kompositionsprocessen i arbetet beskrivs och har sedan sammanfattats i form av en modell som utgör ett generellt tillvägIn this essay I explore how I, using music theoretical analyses, approach writing pastiche in a genre I have never studied before, nor have any deeper knowledge of. The aim has been to compose a piece in a specific genre, in this case a musette waltz. The composing process in the essay is described and has been summarized as a model forming a general approach which could be used when composing a p

Although deep learning has made advances in a plethora of fields, ranging from financial analysis to image classification, it has some shortcomings for cases of limited data and complex models. In these cases the networks tend to be overconfident in their prediction even when erroneous - something that exposes its applications to risk. One way to incorporate an uncertainty measure is to let the neGenom att använda maskininlärning går det att lösa problem som vi tidigare trodde var olösbara. Saker som ansiktsigenkänning, chatbottar och maskiner som lär sig gå självmant känns idag helt triviala men var en enorm utmaning bara några decennier sedan. Maskinlärning används i alla hörn av vårt samhälle, från medicin och finans till bilindustrin och telekommunikation. Gemensamt för alla dessa sekt

Utvecklingen av artificiell intelligens har tagit massiva kliv det senaste årtiondet och tekniken har stor potential att utveckla många områden i samhället. Ett av dessa områden är behandling av cancer i sjukvården. Detta examensarbete introducerar en ny metod för att träna AI-algoritmer att automatiskt dela upp och klassificera olika områden i en bild. Denna metod testas sedan för att markera ut The last decades of research in machine learning and deep learning have lead to enormous advancements in the field. One of the areas that stand to gain the most from this is the medical sector. However, the majority of deep learning models today rely on supervised learning and one considerable bottleneck in the sector's ability to adapt the technology is the need of large labeled datasets.

Det här är den reflekterande delen av mitt examensarbete på Kandidatutbildningen i Symfoniorkesterinstrument, Slagverk, vid Musikhögskolan i Malmö, Lunds Universitet. Det finns inget vedertaget sätt för slagverkare att spela J.S Bachs musik på, trots att det i allra högsta grad ingår i repertoaren. Genom att skapa mig en större förståelse för barockens interpretationspraxis och olika tolkningar avThis is the reflective part of my Bachelor graduation project at Malmö Academy of Music, Lund University, with classical percussion as my major. There is no commonly accepted way of playing J.S Bach's music on percussion instruments, even though his music, to a very high degree, has come to be a part of most percussionists repertoire. By widening my understanding of the practice of baroque mus

In the world of mountain biking, wearing protective gears is a must. In certain less risky disciplines, the majority of riders wear only the helmet. In other disciplines more oriented toward speed and jumps, wearing different protective products for different body parts is highly recommended. A product that lies within this category is the ankle brace, mainly used to prevent lateral sprains after

This thesis investigates how the sense drive is created in music and how these techniques can be used as compositional tools. Three methods were used to find this result. First method was to do an interpretative analysis of four songs in the metal genre, drawing a curve describing how the drive was experienced to progress throughout each song. Second method was perceptual examinations, asking part
