  1. 1. "For the fifty-eleventh time" : Examining cross-linguistic properties of hyperbolic numerals and quasi-numeral expressions through parallel text extraction

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för lingvistik

    Author : Amanda Kann; [2022]
    Keywords : hyperbole; hyperbolic quantification; numeral typology; parallel texts; quasi-numerals; hyperbol; hyperbolisk kvantifiering; kvasinumeriska uttryck; parallelltexter; räkneordstypologi;

    Abstract : In some languages, vague and exaggerated quantities can be represented using certain conventionalised numeral expressions with cross-linguistically varying values, such as Danish hundredesytten "117". Hyperbolic quantities can also be expressed using other quantifier expressions (such as English zillion) which, while they do not denote a specific numerical value, have both structural and functional similarities with exact numerals.

  3. 2. Designing Mesoporous Test Sticks for Measuring PFAS Concentrations in Water

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Nanostrukturerade material

    Author : Amanda Hillås; [2022]
    Keywords : Mesoporous material; PFAS; PFOA; PFOS; Rose Bengal; adsorption;

    Abstract : Water contamination through substances called per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) is a worldwide problem. Being able to measure the concentrations of PFAS in water is a first step towards beating this contamination. One alternative is to use a field test kit instead of extensive lab equipment to monitor the contaminated areas. READ MORE

  4. 3. Effects of diversified cropping on arthropod communities

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Ecology

    Author : Eira Eksvärd; [2022]
    Keywords : carabids; spiders; traits; organic amendments; ley legacy effects;

    Abstract : Även intensiva moderna jordbruk är beroende av ekosystemtjänster som organismer bidrar med såsom biologisk bekämpning av skadedjur. Effekten av biodiversitet på ekosystemprocesser förklaras inte i tillräcklig grad av taxonomisk mångfald, utan beror snarare på mångfalden av funktionella egenskaper bland arterna. READ MORE

  5. 4. Effects of melatonin and Single Layer Centrifugation on cryosurvival of ram semen samples

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Clinical Sciences

    Author : Lea Enenkelová; [2021]
    Keywords : sheep reproduction; Jezersko-Solčava sheep breed; colloid centrifugation; melatonin;

    Abstract : The composition of the ram sperm membrane renders it vulnerable to injury during cryopreservation. Production of reactive oxygen species, which are by-products of metabolism, increases during freezing and thawing, causing damage to sperm membranes and acrosomes as well as affecting mitochondrial activity.

  6. 5. Structural Battery Electrolytes

    University essay from KTH/Fiber- och polymerteknologi

    Author : Pernilla Öberg; Amanda Halvarsson; Julia Rune; Max Bjerkensjö; [2021]
    Keywords : structural battery electrolytes; polymerization-induced phase separation; bicontinuous morphology; lithium-ion conductivity; thiol-ene chemistry; Strukturella batteri-elektrolyter; polymerisations-inducerad fasseparation; bikontinuerlig morfologi; litium-jon konduktivitet; tiol-en kemi;

    Abstract : Strukturella batterier är multifunktionella; de tillhandahåller lagring av elektrokemisk energi samtidigt som de bidrar med en lastbärande funktion. Tillsammans möjliggör detta att batteriet kan integreras i karossen hos ett elektriskt fordon eller apparat. READ MORE
