Trading commodities has been around for centuries, and today, most trading is done electronically on exchanges in derivatives contracts. Over time, regulatory bodies, specifically the CFTC, have sought to implement safeguards against market manipulation by participants. One such measure has been position limits on derivatives, which since January 1st, 2023, also includes so-called economically equ

Detta examensarbete utvecklar fram en skräddarsydd prototyp av en tillgänglig kommunal webbplats. Det innebär en kommunal webbplats som är anpassningsbar och lätt att navigera, speciellt för användare som tar hjälp av tillgänglighetsverktyg för att utforska webben. För att kunna ta fram denna prototyp, utvecklades först två prototyper som var nära besläktade. Dessa två prototyper jämfördes sedan This thesis project brings forth a tailored working prototype of an accessible municipal website. This means a municipal website that is adjustable and easy to navigate, especially for users in need of accessibility tools to browse the web. To create this prototype, we first created two separate prototypes that closely resembled each other. These two prototypes were then compared to each other and

Secondary clients: a discourse analysis of affinity and kinship In recent years, a trend has developed in care-giving systems. It was previously thought that care for our elderly, physically disabled or chronically ill relatives and loved ones, was to be provided by and cared for in institutions. As of now, we see a retrograding trend where a lot of the treatment and/or care is to be provided in

The construction sector is often criticized for its lack of efficiency and quality.When the construction industry is compared to the rest of the domestic manufacturing industry, the general conclusions of the industry’s low efficiency is confirmed. The purpose has been to clarify why there is no sustainable building, despite the well-developed technology that now is available. The report also exam

Popular summary: Hydrocarbons, ground water and economic minerals occur in pores (voids) between sediment grains, which later may form more solid and less porous sedimentary rocks. Thus porosity is a term that describes the abundance of these pores and can be defined as the quantity of oil, gas, water and economic minerals a rock can hold and it is expressed as percentages (%). The other importa

Tre grustag undersöktes i nordöstra Tyskland, Kreuzbruchhof, Fritscheshof och Spargelberg. Syftet var att rekonstruera den senaste glaciala aktiviteten i området. Tolkningarna och således rekonstruktionen grundar sig till största delen på sedimentologiska och strukturella undersökningar. Kreuzbruchhof består mestadels av glacifluviala sediment med undantag för några mindre diamikta enheter tolkadeThree gravel pits near Neubrandenburg, NE Germany, were investigated - Kreuzbruchhof, Spargelberg and Fritscheshof. The investigated gravel pits are situated in an undulating kame landscape 150 km south of the Baltic Sea. The aim of this study was to reconstruct the Late Weichselian history (e.g. deglaciation of the Pomeranian ice sheet) of the area. Reconstruction was based mainly on sedimentolog

At Tetra Pak the liquid packages are constantly developed and refined to fill the customer’s needs. A powerful tool is simulation, to evaluate the design of a new package early in the development process. To determine the performance of beverage packages at Tetra Pak different tests are made in different ways to make secure that they meet the requirements. The pouring performance of a package is a

Global demands for water continue to rise while at the same time, the availability of reliable water resources are deteriorating. As 70% of the world’s human consumption of water resources is directed towards agricultural production, the need to improve water use efficiency and sustainability in these areas is of utmost importance. In order to tackle these issues, the concept of “Integrated water

Quantication of cardiovascular flow and blood volumes are useful tools in diagnosing cardiovascular disease such as congenital heart defects and different kinds of valve leakage. Medical imaging techniques enables non-invasive analysis of anatomy and physiology. In order to perform flow quantification from medical image sequences, the boundaries of the vessels of interest are usually delineated ma

There are several models of each product category, suited for different customer needs and business areas. There are also many different control systems, in fact too many. In 2008, ELS started a project called Project Glo

Hypervelocity stars (HVSs) are stars located in the Galactic halo travelling with extremely high speeds. They are produced when a binary approches the supermassive black hole (SMBH) in the Galactic Center (GC) and gets tidally broken up. In this process one of the stars is ejected with high velocity. The angle between the velocity of the incoming binary and the velocity of the ejected HVS is alm

The purpose of the existing methods for limiting the researcher’s bias is to see to that we have an objective and rational research. But what if there exist collective biases, and that the current process of falsification through peer to peer review only hinder individual ones. And this can happen because there is a shared fundamental belief system (FT) within the field, acquired through mutual ed

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a heterogeneous inflammatory joint disease that affects around 240-250 million people worldwide. The disease is a prominent cause of disability and a leading source of societal expenses in older adults. As of today, personalized OA treatment is considered essential and is currently being addressed in several osteoarthritis guidelines. To explore the possibilities of precisio

Due to the serious problem of greenhouse gas emissions in our atmosphere driving global warming, the need for sustainable initiatives has become an imperative for companies which leads to the necessity of operating sustainably. However, to avoid taking a weak approach to sustainability, it is imperative for companies to carry out a transition involving all three dimensions (environmental, economic

The purpose of this study was to gain knowledge and insight into social service workers' experiences and opinions about the Swedish law on compulsory care of minors.

We conducted six qualitative semi-structured interviews with social workers who had the experience in compulsory

Lösningen till det globala underskottet tranplanterbara lungor finns kanske i återanvändandet av sjuk lungvävnad. Över hela världens finns patienter som väntar på att få nya organ transplanterade. För de med kroniska lungsjukdomar finns ofta inga botemedel, och förhoppningen om att få nya lungor transplanterade präglas av långa väntelistor och bara ungefär hälften av de som faktiskt får transplanChronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is currently the third leading cause of death worldwide and for patients with end-stage disease, the only viable treatment is lung transplantation. In order to meet this clinical need, novel approaches of tissue engineering have emerged. 3D bioprinting technologies are one such rapidly evolving approach and show promising results in terms of biocompatib

Quark is a dairy product that has existed for a long time. However, it has grown in popularity during the last years due to the fact that it is often portrayed as a healthy alternative in the dairy section. There are no regulations connected to the manufacturing process of quark. At a specific dairy company, there is a desire to understand and optimise the quark production to obtain a consistently
