  1. 11. Role Expectations as Motivators of Mass Violence Perpetration : A Normative Approach to Understanding Perpetrator Behaviour During the Yugoslav Wars from 1991–1995

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Hugo Valentin-centrum

    Author : Otilia Rehnström; [2023]
    Keywords : Yugoslav Wars 1991-1995; Perpetrator behaviour; role expectations; social norms; role strain; role conflict;

    Abstract : The enduring question of why apparently ordinary individuals participate in the systemic perpetration of mass violence hallmarks genocide studies, and it arose yet again when the multifarious atrocities faced by civilians in the Yugoslav Wars of 1991–1995 were apparent. With explanations resting on notions of “ancient hatreds” having been denounced in favour of ones that emphasise the role of emotions like fear and resentment, ethnic myths and symbols, and competition on group and individual levels of society, there remains some issues with these approaches; they cannot account for what motivates variations in behaviour by on-the-ground perpetrators nor can they describe the process by which violence develops in tandem on micro- and meso-levels, while still accommodating macro-level causes for conflict.

  3. 12. Anomaly Detection with Machine Learning using CLIP in a Video Surveillance Context

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Datorseende

    Author : Christoffer Gärdin; [2023]
    Keywords : Datorseende; maskininlärning; CLIP; anomalidetektion; videoövervakning;

    Abstract : This thesis explores the application of Contrastive Language-Image Pre-Training (CLIP), a vision-language model, in an automated video surveillance system for anomaly detection. The ability of CLIP to perform zero-shot learning, coupled with its robustness against minor image alterations due to its lack of reliance on pixel-level image analysis, makes it a suitable candidate for this application.

  4. 13. Remediation of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in contaminated water by sorption to pine- and spruce bark

    University essay from Örebro universitet/Institutionen för naturvetenskap och teknik

    Author : Rebecka Ayranci Dahlberg; [2023]
    Keywords : Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances; sorption; pine bark; spruce bark; ultra-short-chain PFAS; short-and long-chain PFAS; elemental analysis; field-test;

    Abstract : PFAS are anthropogenic substances used in many different industrial operations and products because of their unique properties. Due to their negative impact on human health and environmental bioaccumulative characteristics different authorities have addressed the issue. In Sweden the limit is4 ng/L for four different PFAS in drinking water. READ MORE

  5. 14. Experimental studies of radiation damage in uranium nitride

    University essay from KTH/Fysik

    Author : Maria Giamouridou; [2023]
    Keywords : uranium nitride nuclear fuel; advanced nuclear fuel; uranium nitride fabrication; uranium nitride characterisation; Spark Plasma Sintering; proton irradiation; irradiation damage; TANDEM accelerator; irradiation induced cracking; irradiation induced hardening; irradiation induced swelling; hydrogen implantation; dislocation loops; kärnbränsle av urannitrid; avancerat kärnbränsle; tillverkning av urannitrid; karakterisering av urannitrid; Spark Plasma Sintering; protonbestrålning; strålningsskador; TANDEM-accelerator; strålningsinducerad sprickbildning; strålningsinducerad härdning; strålningsinducerad svällning; väteimplantation; dislokationsloopar;

    Abstract : The effect of proton (H+) irradiation on uranium mononitride (UN) and UN compositefuel with 10 at.% ZrN (UN10at%ZrN) was examined. Protons of 2 MeV with fluences of1E17, 1E18, 1E19 and 1E20 ions/cm2 were accelerated towards the fabricated samples in orderto investigate the evolution of the micro-structure. READ MORE

  6. 15. Evaluation of critical instrument parameters for the transfer of LC-MS quantification methods between LC-MS/MS and Orbitrap MS

    University essay from Örebro universitet/Institutionen för naturvetenskap och teknik

    Author : Anna Stepanova; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Transferring analytical methods is crucial in chemical laboratories. The need for the transfer may arise for different reasons such as sharing data between different laboratories, replacement or upgrade of analytical instrument, or limited instruments available etc. The performance and sensitivity of different instruments may vary.
