The tendency of stock prices always attracts investors’ attention, which is related to their earnings. So it is increasingly concerned that what information will affect the stock markets and how the stock market reacts to investors’ investment strategy. So this paper investigates the phenomenon of stock price synchronicity in Shanghai Stock Exchange, and what reflects stock price synchronicity in
The purpose of this project was to develop and test lipase-based in vitro release (IVR) assays for model and active pharmaceutical ingredients (API) entrapped in lipid formulations based on mixtures of phosphatidylcholine (PC) and glycerol dioleate (GDO). Two dyes, Fluorescein disodium salt and Patent Blue V sodium salt, functioning as model drug compounds, were investigated separately in the PC/G
This bachelor-level thesis in historical osteology deals with several aspects of the life-cycle of an Roman Iron Age farm in southern Scania. Excavated in the 1980's by Lars Larsson, the farm was located near a place called Långåker in the Dybäck area, on a cape which stretched out into a minor bog. Our work concerns why the Iron Age people settled the area, how well fragmented bone survives
As of January 1, 2005, it will no longer be allowed under international trade rules for one country to impose import quotas on textiles and garments on another country. It is widely expected that the expiration of the 1974 Multifiber Arrangement will lead to a drastic re-shuffle of garment production and trade patterns. Where a number of countries were previously guaranteed a share of the European
Den här framställningen behandlar det upphovsrättsliga skyddet för brukskonst. Upphovsrätten ger ett skydd för litterära och konstnärliga verk och brukskonst anges som skyddad verkskategori i exemplifieringen i 1 kap. 1 § 1 st. 6 p. lag om upphovsrätt till litterära och konstnärliga verk (1960:729), URL. Det har de senaste decennierna framförts en allmän åsikt att kraven för ett upphovsrättsligt sIn this thesis the main purpose is to investigate the copyright protection for applied art. The Swedish copyright gives protection for literary and artistic works and applied art is specifically listed as a protected category in the exemplification in the law. In the past decades it has been stated that the requirements for copyright protection of applied art have been reduced to the same level as
In this thesis, a few possible methods to clean nuisance signals from ion current measurements are explored. Ion current measurements can be used to optimise a combustion engine, but interference from the ignition system coupled with clipping caused by limitations in the measurement equipment limit the amount of data that can be extracted. This thesis develops a model which is used for simulation
Plastic waste and pollution have proliferated globally causing environmental degradation and biodiversity loss. Costa Rica hosts 5-6% of global biodiversity and struggles to balance socio-economic development with environmental protection in the context of plastic waste management. This system is analysed through the multi-level perspective using primary data collected from semi-structured stakeho
This study aims to address criticism regarding the knowledge gap in Swedish research considering women's involvement in gangs and their treatment when seeking to exit a gang-involved lifestyle. The research seeks to contribute insights beneficial for women and grassroots bureaucrats involved in the existing process. The study qualitatively investigates current practices and discussions related
This thesis analyses if investors price a country’s environmental (E) performance into sovereign bond yields. The sample consists of 17 emerging countries from 2011 to 2020. Environmental performance is measured by aggregating 12 metrics from World Bank’s Environmental, Social & Governance database to a single index using principal component analysis. The panel data model combines the E index
Today, innovation is a key word for many universities, as it constitutes an important part of most universities’ public and scientific outreach task. Many universities are striving to increase the number of innovations generated at the university. A common method is to provide various support for research projects e.g.; providing researchers with information about international patent rights (IPR)
In recent years, long-acting drugs have emerged as a significant advancement in the treatment of chronic diseases. Camurus is a pharmaceutical company specializing in this area, with products based on FluidCrystal® technology—a lipid-based injectable drug delivery technology that, upon contact with water or physiological fluids, undergoes a phase transition into a liquid crystalline gel depot. Dru
Can climate signals help investors make sharper moves in volatile commodity markets? This study explores how weather-related risk, specifically the El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO), can be used to improve portfolio performance. We incorporate the Oceanic Niño Index (ONI) into a Random Forest forecasting model to capture the complex, non-linear effects of climate anomalies on commodity returns -
During start-up of tablet presses in pharmaceutical manufacturing, multiple weight adjustments are often required before the tablet weight falls within acceptable limits. This leads to delayed production and a waste of material. The aim of this work was to develop a predictive model to reduce the number of adjustments during start-ups and thereby reduce the amount of rejected material. A linear r
Product innovation in highly complex and technological areas, such as medical technology, puts high requirements on innovation capability of an organization. Previous research and publications have highlighted organizational issues and learning matters as important and necessary for the development of innovation capability. Action learning require reflections of the ways things are carried out, ch
Moth wings are densely covered by wing scales that are assumed to specifically function to camouflage nocturnally active species during day time. Generally, moth wing scales are built according to the basic lepidopteran Bauplan, where the upper lamina consists of an array of parallel ridges and the lower lamina is a thin plane. The lower lamina hence acts as a thin film reflector having distinct rMoth wings are densely covered by wing scales that are assumed to specifically function to camouflage nocturnally active species during day time.
