1. 1. The effect of high pressure homogenization on emulsions containing oat β-glucan : a study of viscosity, stability and molecular weight

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Livsmedelsteknik och nutrition (master)

   Author : Dominika Kiesling; [2023]
   Keywords : oat; β-glucan; high pressure homogenization; emulsion; stability; food technology; Agriculture and Food Sciences;

   Abstract : This master thesis project has been conducted in cooperation with Lantmännen AB who are producers of PromOat® - an oat β-glucan powder concentrate. The main objective of this thesis was to investigate the properties of emulsions containing PromOat® oat β-glucan, focusing on the viscosity, stability, and molecular weight before and after high pressure homogenization (HPH) at pressures of 100, 150 and 200 bars.

3. 2. Simulations of a self-stabilizing fully submerged hydrofoil

   University essay from KTH/Matematik (Avd.)

   Author : Henry Jacobson; [2023]
   Keywords : Hydrofoil; Self-Stabilizing; Lifting Line Theory; Fluid Mechanics; Numerical Methods; Backward Differentiation Formula; Fully Submerged Hydrofoil; Bärplan; bärplansbåt; självstabiliserande; lyftande linjeteori; strömningsme- kanik; numeriska metoder; Backward Differentiation Formula; fullt nedsänkt bärplan;

   Abstract : Two models of a self-stabilizing hydrofoil system is developed where the effects from the struts and hydrofoil give torques for angular rotations. Lifting line theory for the hydrofoil which can twist is used. Nonlinear versions of the models are also developed and compared to find that the linear models use valid approximations. READ MORE

4. 3. Conservatism in Credit Ratings: A Comparative Study of Time-Varying Credit Rating Standards in Europe and the US, 1997-2023

   University essay from Handelshögskolan i Stockholm/Institutionen för finansiell ekonomi

   Author : Ebba Bogfors; Elsa Persson; [2023]
   Keywords : Credit ratings; Rating quality; Rating conservatism; Rating standards;

   Abstract : Our paper reveals increased conservatism in credit ratings in both Europe and the US from 1997 to 2023, with the effect stabilizing after the financial crisis. On average, ratings have declined by more than three notches in Europe, signifying that a firm rated AAA in 1997, with constant financial characteristics, would receive a rating of AA- in 2023.

5. 4. Characterization and Stabilization of Transverse Spatial Modes of Light in Few-Mode Optical Fibers

   University essay from Linköpings universitet/Informationskodning

   Author : Oscar Pihl; [2023]
   Keywords : spatial modes; Space division multiplexing; SDM; superpositions; LP-modes; few-mode fibers; quantum communication; quantum optics; adaptive optics; stochastic parallel gradient descent; SPGD; mode control; QKD; polarization controller; paddle controller; QRNG; quantum random number generator; spatial modes; perturbation effects;

   Abstract : With the growing need for secure and high-capacity communications, innovative solutions are needed to meet the demands of tomorrow. One such innovation is to make use of the still unutilized spatial dimension of light in communications, which has promising applications in both enabling higher data traffic as well as the security protocols of the future in quantum communications.

6. 5. RECOMMENDATIONS FOR A DEPENDABLE ROV SYSTEM FOR SWEDISH MARITIME RESEARCH

   University essay from Mälardalens universitet/Akademin för innovation, design och teknik

   Author : David Bernström; Erik Nyström; [2023]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : A Remotely Operated underwater Vehicle (ROV) faces many problems regarding dependability and most issues come during launch and recovery. The thesis looks at finding what dependability aspects shall be considered when developing a modular ROV to come up with recommendations for a system, together with a more reliable method of launching and recovering ROV’s.
