1. 21. Urban green spaces: Limits to growth?

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Antikens kultur och samhällsliv

   Author : Jacob Seabrook Alex; [2023]
   Keywords : Urban green space; densification; compact city; livable city; socio-ecological systems;

   Abstract : This research analyses attitudes to urban green spaces within the framework of compact city development models, using Uppsala as a case study and investigating the tension between growth and preservation. Compact city literature strongly promotes the importance of green space within urban environments for both social and ecological wellbeing and highlights what becomes an increasing requirement for this as populations within urban areas are densified, which is a concomitant goal of compact city models.

3. 22. Investigating permeability characteristics of porcine esophageal mucosa: A viable ex vivo model for human buccal mucosa

   University essay from Malmö universitet/Fakulteten för hälsa och samhälle (HS)

   Author : Renugadevi Srinivasan; [2023]
   Keywords : Porcine esophageal mucosa; Permeability characteristics; Drug permeation; Inter-specimen variation; Intra-specimen variation.;

   Abstract : Due to its larger surface area and ease of preparation, pig esophageal mucosa has emerged as a practical and viable alternative to buccal mucosa for studying permeability characteristics in vitro. However, the permeation results in biological membranes have shown high variability due to inter-specimen and intra-specimen variations. READ MORE

4. 23. “The least you can do is leave our symbols alone” The Palestinian Keffiyeh in the Fashion Industry:A Study on Cultural Appropriation and Identity

   University essay from Malmö universitet/Institutionen för globala politiska studier (GPS)

Hence, this thesis examines Palestinians' perceptions of the use of the Keffiyeh in the fashion industry and the significance of this garment for their cultural identity. READ MORE

5. 24. Computer-Aided Characterization of Lung - Segmentation and Vessel Tree Analysis Algorithms for Clinical Research Applications

   University essay from KTH/Fysik

   Author : Daniel Karoumi; [2023]
   Keywords : Lung; lung segmentation; NSIP; IPF; lung vessels; lung morphometry; 3D Slicer; Lunga; lungsegmentering; NSIP; IPF; lungkärl; lung morfometri; 3D Slicer;

   Abstract : The initial stage of a lung examination involves the segmentation of a CT image, a process that has been put under a lot of pressure with the high demand for chest scans and accurate segmentations. Current automatic segmentation algorithms are either non-robust for different datasets, not easily accessible, or time-consuming. READ MORE

6. 25. Microstructure characteristics and tribological behaviour of plasma sprayed ceramic coatings

   University essay from Högskolan Väst/Institutionen för ingenjörsvetenskap

   Author : Luigi Fadini; [2023]
   Keywords : Thermal spray; APS; SPS; tribology; wear resistant ceramic coatings;

   Abstract : Surface engineering is increasingly becoming inevitable for meeting the high-performance requirements constantly expected from modern engineering components. Higher demands for combined functionalities, which a base material alone cannot provide, motivate intensive academic studies on various types of coatings, with the ultimate objective of their practical utilisation in industries.
