  1. 1. Shower Routine Creation: Application Design in a User-Centered Process

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Ergonomi och aerosolteknologi

    Author : Jakob Sjödin; Teodor Ahlinder; [2024]
    Keywords : user-centered design; shower; routine; user testing; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : A shower routine is a sequence of instructions that can be executed by a smart shower. This report explores how interfaces for creating shower routines can be designed. It further investigates the features that users prioritize in such an interface and how shower routines can enhance the shower experience. READ MORE

  2. 2. Measuring copper abundances in the Galactic Bulge

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Astrofysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Nikolei Höglinger; [2024]
    Keywords : Copper; Galaxy: abundances; Galaxy: bulge; Chemical Evolution; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Context: The chemical evolution of Cu in the Galactic bulge have been studied in a few studies using red giant branch stars, but the ages of individual red giant stars are difficult to determine. In addition, the bulge has been a challenging region of the Milky Way galaxy to obtain high-resolution spectra of stars, except when observing through certain few small fields into the bulge that are known to have low extinction.

  3. 3. Examining core executive functions related to playing position in elite and semi-elite soccer players

    University essay from Institutionen för tillämpad informationsteknologi

    Author : Juulia Grönlund; Agneta Åhlén; [2023-11-20]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Each moment in the soccer field is different and the players need to be able to process large amounts of information to make the best possible decision and then act upon it. Executive functions such as working memory, inhibitory control and cognitive flexibility can therefore be seen as fundamentally important for soccer players. READ MORE

An instance of management's potential disregard for shareholders' interests is the employment of accounting accruals as a means of manipulating earnings for management purposes. READ MORE

  5. 5. A C++ Matrix library for computing the Gateaux derivative of the Fermi-Dirac operator

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Avdelningen för beräkningsvetenskap

    Author : William Samuelsson; [2023]
    Keywords : C ; Quantum Chemistry; Matrix functions;

    Abstract : Computing the Fermi-Dirac operator is done through recursive polynomial expansions, using the SP2 and SP2 Acc algorithms. The Gateaux derivative is computed for both schemes by mapping the zeroth and first order matrices onto a block upper triangular matrix, which is implemented in Python using Numpy arrays to store full matrices and in C++ by first constructing a basic matrix library to use as blocks in a later created block upper triangular matrix library which only directly references two blocks in a 2 x 2 block matrix.
