Television ads have become as much a part of watching TV as the programs themselves. They are such a ubiquitous component of network and cable television that they have developed their own sub-culture; popular commercials get brought up in conversation, and many commercial actors become famous for portraying their respective characters. For how prevalent television advertising is and always has been, though, it’s amazing how little is known about advertiser demand. While many academics have conducted studies on the effects of advertising, little research has been steered towards understanding why advertisers choose to advertise when they do, especially within the context of advertising on TV. My research revolves around answering this question, as I attempt to establish patterns that can predict when firms will choose to advertise. By looking at data on past advertising trends, I try to find a sense of consistency across firms and across industries and then use that information to analyze and explain any observed changes in behavior during highly rated telecasts

Esta tesis doctoral se centra en el uso de indicadores nativos de fluorescencia en leche para establecer modelos de evaluación y predicción rápida de los efectos del procesamiento térmico (70-90 °C, 0-30 min) y de homogeneización a presión ultra-alta (UHPH) (100-300 MPa, temperatura de entrada 22-83 °C) sobre leche bovina entera y desnatada por medio de espectroscopía de fluorescencia front-face (FFFS). La cuantificación rápida de la concentración de retinol, tanto en la leche procesada térmicamente como mediante UHPH, se modelizó con un R2 de 0,92 y 0,90, y un error estándar de predicción de 0,025 mg / L y 0,016 mg / L respectivamente. La degradación de retinol originada por los tratamientos térmicos siguió una cinética de primer orden y la energía de activación se estimó en 52,26 kJ / mol. Tanto en la leche desnatada como en la leche entera, la intensidad de la fluorescencia de los compuestos intermedios de Maillard, triptófano y ditirosina podría modelizarse como funciones de los parámetros de procesado UHPH. La fluorescencia de ditirosina y de los compuestos Maillard en la leche descremada sólo fue afectada significativamente por la temperatura de entrada, mientras que en la leche entera tratada mediante UHPH todos los indicadores de fluorescencia fueron significativamente influidos por la presión y la temperatura. Los cambios en la fluorescencia revelaron las modificaciones en las proteínas de la leche inducidas por el tratamiento UHPH, incluyendo la desnaturalización de las proteínas del suero, la desintegración de la caseína y la agregación de proteínas. La distribución del tamaño de partícula mostró que los tratamientos de UHPH podrían reducir efectivamente el tamaño de partícula en la leche entera. Con una presión inferior a 200 MPa, el tratamiento UHPH no conduciría a una agregación significativa de proteínas ni en leche descremada ni en leche entera. Por el contrario, se pudo observar un efecto claro del tratamiento mediante UHPH sobre la modificación de la estructura de la proteína de la leche por encima de 200 MPa. Estos hallazgos apoyan y complementan las conclusiones sobre la agregación de proteínas de la leche obtenidas a partir de los indicadores de fluorescencia.
This PhD dissertation is focused on using native milk fluorescence indicators to establish models for rapid evaluation and prediction of the effects of thermal (70-90 °C, 0-30 min) and ultra-high pressure homogenization (UHPH) processing (100-300 MPa, inlet temperature 22-83 °C) on bovine milk by means of front-face fluorescence spectroscopy (FFFS). Rapid quantification of retinol concentration, in both thermally and UHPH processed milk, was well modeled with an R2 of 0.92 and 0.90, and standard error of prediction of 0.025 mg/L and 0.016 mg/L, respectively. Retinol degradation originated by thermal treatments followed a first-order kinetic and the activation energy was estimated to be 52.26 kJ/mol. In both skim milk and whole milk, the tryptophan, dityrosine and Maillard intermediate compounds fluorescence could be modeled as functions of UHPH processing parameters. In skim milk, the dityrosine and Maillard compounds fluorescence intensities were only significantly affected by inlet temperature, while all the fluorescence indicators were significantly influenced by both pressure and temperature in UHPH treated whole milk. The changes in fluorescence revealed the milk protein modifications induced by UHPH, including whey protein denaturation, casein disintegration and protein aggregation. Particle size distribution showed that UHPH treatments could effectively reduce the particle size in whole milk. With pressure under 200 MPa, UHPH would not lead to significant protein aggregation in either skim or whole milk. On the contrary, a clear effect of UHPH treatment on milk protein structure modification could be observed above 200 MPa. These findings support and complement the conclusions from the fluorescence indicators about milk protein aggregation.
Aquesta tesi doctoral se centra en l'ús d'indicadors nadius de fluorescència en la llet per establir models d’avaluació i predicció ràpida dels efectes de processament tèrmic (70-90 °C, 0-30 min) i homogeneïtzació d'ultra alta pressió (UHPH) (100-300 MPa, amb temperatura d'entrada de 22 a 83 °C) sobre llet sencera i desnatada de boví mitjançant espectroscòpia de fluorescència front-face (FFFS).La quantificació ràpida de la concentració de retinol, tant en la llet processada tèrmicament com en la UHPH, es va modelitzar amb una R2 de 0,92 i 0,90, i un error estàndard de predicció de 0,025 mg / L i 0,016 mg / L respectivament. La degradació de retinol originada pels tractaments tèrmics va seguir una cinètica de primer ordre i es va estimar que l'energia d'activació és de 52,26 kJ / mol.La fluorescència de compostos intermedis de Maillard, triptòfan i ditirosina en la llet desnatada i en la llet sencera es pot modelitzar com a funcions dels paràmetres de processament UHPH. La fluorescència de la ditirosina i de compostos Maillard en la llet desnatada només es va veure afectada significativament per la temperatura d'entrada, mentre que en la llet sencera tractada mitjançant UHPH tots els indicadors de fluorescència es van veure fortament influïts per la pressió i la temperatura. Els canvis en la fluorescència van revelar les modificacions de la proteïna de la llet induïdes pel tractament UHPH, inclosa la desnaturalització de proteïnes de sèrum de llet, la desintegració de la caseïna i l'agregació de proteïnes.La distribució de la grandària de partícules va mostrar que els tractaments UHPH podrien reduir la mida de les partícules en llet sencera. Amb una pressió inferior a 200 MPa, el tractament UHPH no va donar lloc a cap important agregació de proteïnes en llet descremada o completa. Al contrari, es va poder observar un clar efecte del tractament UHPH sobre la modificació de l'estructura de proteïnes de la llet per sobre de 200 MPa. Aquests resultats recolzen i complementen les conclusions sobre l'agregació de proteïnes de la llet obtingudes a partir dels indicadors de fluorescència.

Syfte: Syftet med det här examenarbete är att undersöka behovet av snabbkopplingsadaptrar för protesbrukare.   Bakgrund: Snabbkopplingsadapter är en förhållandevis ny produkt som både Otto Bock och Lindhe Xtend erbjuder, men ingen forskning på behovsområdet finns ännu gjord. Fördelen med produkten är enligt leverantörernas hemsidor bl a att man med den enkelt kan byta mellan olika proteskomponenter utan att behöva skruva på några protesinställningar eller byta hylsa.   Metod: För att undersöka behovet av snabbkopplingsadaptrar utfördes semistrukturella intervjuer av fenomenologisk karaktär. En serie med sju frågor sammanställdes som intervjuunderlag, vilka togs fram utifrån de tre behovsfokusområdena: Funktion, delaktighet och livskvalité. I undersökningen ingick n=6 deltagare, varav n=3 transtibialt amputerade och n=3 transfemoralt amputerade. Insamlade data analyserades vidare för framtagning av olika teman och resultat.   Resultat: Utifrån intervjuunderlaget togs följande teman fram: Byte av protesfötter/protesknäleder, På- och avtagning av byxor, Hylspassform, Transport samt Biomekanik. Varje tema utgjorde ett eget potentiellt användningsområde, där de största behoven visade sig ligga inom temana Byte av protesfötter/protesknäleder, Hylspassform samt Transport.   Slutsats: Behovet av snabbkopplingsadaptrar är högst subjektivt, och beror snarare på deltagarens liv än några allmänna faktorer. Däremot upptäcktes ett antal tänkbara användningsområden för den.
Aim: The aim of this thesis was to investigate the necessity of the quick change adapter for lower limb amputees.   Background: Quick Change Adapter is a relatively new product that both Otto Bock and Lindhe Xtend offers, but no research has been done on the area of its necessity yet.  According to the supplier´s websites the benefits of the product is that you with it easily can change prosthetic components without affecting the alignments or change socket.   Method: To investigate the necessity of the Quick Change Adapter, semi structural interviews of phenomenological characteristic were used.  A series of seven questions were compiled as a basis for the interview from the three focus areas: Function, participation and quality of Life. The thesis involved n=6 participants, of who n=3 was trantibial amputated and n=3 transfemoral amputated. Collected data was later analysed to find general themes and results.   Results: From the interviews these themes were exposed: Changing prosthetic feet/prosthetic knee joints, Donn and doff of pants, Socket fit, Transport and Biomechanics. Each theme presented a potential application area where the biggest needs seemed to be in Changing prosthetic feet/prosthetic knee joints, Socket fit and Transport.   Conclusions: The necessity of the Quick Change Adapter turned out to be very subjective, and depended more on the participant´s life then any general factors. Still there were some potential application areas detected for it.

In forging industry, the die setup starts with unloading the previous die set and ends with approval of the first part produced. During conventional die setup, forging press is kept idle. The aim of this study is to perform die changing applications of the 1000 ton forging press of Aksan Steel Forging Company in more systematic way to reduce the idle time. The applicability of Single Minute Exchange of Dies (SMED) System and quick die locating methods have been studied. SMED classifies the setup operations as internal and external setup operations. During the internal setup operations the press is kept idle. Therefore it has been tried to reduce the internal setup time. In this study, a new modular die system has been developed. The die system to be used for the forging press with 1000 ton capacity in Aksan Steel Forging Company has been redesigned regarding the dimensional limitations, requirements, SMED System and quick die locating methods. The modules of proposed die system and the dies for a particular forging part have been produced. Tests, observations and time studies have been carried out. The time spent for alignment of the upper and lower dies on the press have been eliminated in the proposed system. The solutions have been proposed for the frequently encountered problems of setup operations of the company and these have been applied in the system. In order to eliminate operator mistakes, marking applications have also been introduced and the application of die cavity revision has been renewed. During the time studies for the case study, it has been seen that the internal setup time of the forging press with 1000 ton capacity has been reduced from 220 minutes to 141 minutes which corresponds to a reduction of 36 %.

The current concerns about global warming are increasing the demands for electric vehicles (Ou- chi, Bando, Kodani, Hirata & Mubin, 2012).With the increasing demands, electric boats have now come into focus (Sierzchula, 2014). However, there is yet to be developed standards for charging of electric boats.This is where this thesis project comes in, as this thesis is a part of the E-Sea Power project,which is a project to develop a new and safe standard for charging of electric boats.The thesis project was completed at the company No Picnic in Stockholm, through the work of my final master degree course, in the education of Industrial Design Engineering, taught at Luleå Uni- versity of Technology. The objective of the thesis project was to provide a basis for the facilitation of the standardization of chargers for boats, with the possibility of full-scale tests. Where the final aim of the project was to develop both a normal charger standard and a quick charger that is to be mounted in a harbor, being able to utilize the harbor’s own electricity grid.Where in this context, a normal charger is a slower charger that charges with the users own cord and where a quick charger is a fast charger which has a built-in charger cord and handle. The project was divided into need, design, and function to make it structured and easy to follow, going through the design phases Immersion, Ideation, and Implementation.Throughout the project the current state was firsts analyzed, going on to several brainstorming and evaluation techniques and then ending with the building of final CAD prototypes, of both a normal charger and a quick charger, through the use of the software Solidworks, Keyshot, Photoshop and Maxwell.The projects focus has been on finding creative and ergonomic new solutions, with good user experience and accessibility. The final result of the project is two modular new chargers, with belonging to the same product family. Both a quick charger, which has had the thesis main focus and a normal charger, which has also been developed. The quick charger is a tall charging post that has a built-in lamp consisting of four fluorescent lamps and a, on the outside hanging, charging cord mounted at the top.The charger has two component houses which house necessary components. One that houses the CCS charger female and infor- mation label and one that houses the screen, IR sensor and emergency stop. The main feature of the final quick charger is its charging arm, which bends down with a hidden hinge, enabling the required total reach of 5 meters, while helping lift the charging cord for the user and giving the best possible light were the user is. The normal charger is also a charging post with the same type of house as the quick charger. How- ever the charger post is much shorter and it has only one house, which houses two Type 2 females instead of one CCS female.The normal charger also has a different lamp consisting of small LEDs, so that the user is not disturbed by its brightness at its lower hight, but still gaining enough light during use, where the surrounding light is lacking.
Den nuvarande oron för global uppvärmning ökar kraven på el-fordon (Ouchi, Bando, Kodani, Hirata & Mubin, 2012). Med de ökande kraven har nu de elektriska båtarna kommit i fokus (Sier- zchula, 2014). Det har emellertid ännu inte utvecklats standarder för laddning av elektriska båtar. Det är här det här master projektet kommer in, då detta projekt ingår i E-Sea Power-projektet, som är ett projekt för att utveckla en ny och säker standard för laddning av elektriska båtar. Projektet slutfördes på företaget No Picnic i Stockholm, genom mitt examensarbete, vid utbildningen civil- ingenjörsutbildningen i teknisk design, undervisad vid Luleå tekniska universitet. Målet med projektet var att skapa en grund för att underlätta standardiseringen av laddare för båtar, med möjlighet till fullskaliga tester. Där det slutliga målet med projektet var att utveckla både en normalladdare standard och en snabbladdare som ska monteras i en hamn och kunna utnyttja ham- nens egna elnät. I det här sammanhanget är en normalladdare en långsammare laddare som laddar med användarens egen kabel och en snabbladdare är en snabb laddare som har en egen inbyggd kabel med ett handtag. Projektet var uppdelat i behov, design och funktion för att göra det strukturerat och lätt att följa. Det gick även igenom designfaserna Immersion, Ideation och Implementation. Hela projektet bör- jade med analyseradet av det nuvarande tillståndet och fortsatte sedan med diverse brainstorming och utvärderingstekniker och slutade sedan med byggandet av slutliga CAD-prototyper, både av en normalladdare och en snabbladdare, med hjälp av programmen Solidworks, Keyshot, Photoshop och Maxwell. Projektets fokus har varit att hitta kreativa och ergonomiska nya lösningar med bra användarupplevelse och tillgänglighet. Det slutliga resultatet av projektet är två modulära nya laddare, som tillhör samma produktfamilj. Både en snabbladdare, som har haft huvudfokus och en normalladdare, som också har utvecklats. Snabbladdaren är en hög laddningsstolpe som har en inbyggd lampa som består av fyra lysrörslam- por och en utvändigt hängande laddningssladd monterad på toppen. Laddaren har två komponent- hus ett som rymmer CCS laddarens hona och informationsetikett och ett som rymmer skärmen, IR sensorn och nödstoppet. Huvudfunktionen hos den slutliga snabbladdaren är dess laddarm som böjer sig ned med ett dolt gångjärn, vilket möjliggör den totala räckvidden på 5 meter, samtidigt som den hjälper till att lyfta laddkabeln åt användaren och ger bästa möjliga ljus där användaren är. Den vanliga laddaren är också en laddstolpe med samma typ av hus som snabbladdaren. Laddstolpen är dock mycket kortare och den har bara ett hus, som rymmer två Type 2-honor i stället för en CCS-hona. Normalladdaren har också en annan lampa än snabbladdaren som består av små lysdio- der, så att användaren inte störs av ljusstyrkan vid dess lägre placering, men fortfarande får tillräckligt med ljus vid användning, där det omgivande ljuset är bristande.

The Arabidopsis thaliana glycosyltransferase UGT72B1 is one of many enzymes which catalyze the reaction oflinking a glucose moiety from UDP-glucose to an acceptor molecule, in this case a chloroaniline or a chlorophenol. This is part of a detoxification system of the plant cell, similar to that in humans where a glucuronosyltransferases are enabling drug metabolism. It would be of interest to investigate the activity of the human enzyme towards different pharmaceuticals and determine the effect the linkage of glucose has to properties of the compounds. However, the human enzymes are membrane proteins and thus difficult to purify and crystallize. Here, an attempt was made to instead change the substrate specificity of UGT72B1 from UDPglucose to UDP-glucuronic acid. Combination of the four point mutations G18S, P139R, W367S and AG387ED were introduced in UGT72B1. However, no UDP-glucuronic acid activity was obtained. Single mutants W367S and AG387ED retained similar activity as of the wildtype while P139R had highly reduced activity and G18S was not expressed at all. All other combinations of mutations resulted in even less activity. Four chimeric proteins were also constructed. They were combinations of the UGT72B1 and the human enzyme UGT2B4. These were all soluble proteins but no activity could be determined.
Glykosyltransferaset UGT72B1 från Arabidopsis thaliana är ett av många enzymer som katalyserar reaktionen där en glukosenhet från UDP-glukos länkas till en acceptormolekyl, i det här fallet en kloranilin eller en klorfenol. Det är en del av ett detoxifieringssytem i växtcellen, som liknar det i människan, där ett glukuronosyltransferas möjliggör nedbrytning av bl.a. läkemedel. Det vore intressant att kunna undersöka de humana enzymernas aktivitet mot olika läkemedel och även fastställa effekten glukoslänkningen har på dessa substansers egenskaper. De humana enzymerna är dock membranprotein och är därför svåra att rena fram och att kristallisera. Här har istället ett försök gjorts för att ändra substratspecificiteten hos UGT72B1 från UDP-glukos till UDP-glukuronsyra. Kombinationer av de fyra punktmutationerna G18S, P139R, W367S och AG387ED introducerades i UGT72B1. Ingen aktivitet med UDP-glukuronsyra erhölls dock. Enkelmutanterna W367S och AG387ED bibehöll liknande aktivitet som vildtypen, medan P139R hade starkt reducerad aktivitet och G18S uttrycktes inte alls. Alla andra kombinationer av mutationer resulterade i ännu lägre aktivitet. Fyra chimeriska proteiner konstruerades också. De skapades genom kombination av UGT72B1 och det humana enzymet UGT2B4. Dessa var alla lösliga proteiner men ingen av dem uppvisade någon aktivitet.

Ni-rich LiNixCoyMnzO2 (NCM) cathode materials with layered structure have a great potential for the application in advanced lithium-ion batteries, mainly due to their high specific capacity. However, these materials still suffer from many challenges such as poor structural and interfacial stability upon (de)lithiation which limits the large-scale applications. In this study, we investigate the role of Ni、Co、Mn in the stability of NCM cathode materials including NCM523、NCM622、NCM811.We found that NCM811 cathode material shows higher capacity than that of NCM523 and NCM622 cathode materials. Operando X-ray diffraction measurements show that NCM811 exhibits mild volume change below 4 V and large decreases in unit cell volume due to collapse of the interlayer spacing at 4.3 V during charge process. Operando hard X-ray absorption spectroscopy of NCM cathode materials suggests that the shrinkage of the transition metal–oxygen layer could result from Ni oxidation during charge process. Our results demonstrate that changing the operation of NCM811 cathodes in different potential range can improve the stability and cycle life of Li-ion battery performance.

The effects caused by 85˚ C coffee chain stores’ rapid growth during 2005~2007 has been broadly valued and discussed. Among them, the management characteristics bragged about by general headquarters of 85˚ C coffee chain stores and brand characteristic have obvious differences compared to what the general manager Guang-Yu Xu of Starbucks stated , the facts show that still there is a detail that waits to be distinguished. This research used the chance discovery to explore scenarios for describing the stories of the rapid growing on 85˚ C coffee chain stores and their development tactics. Furthermore, We would like to discover the scenarios beyond the rapid growing on 85˚ C coffee chain stores. In this research, the data of 85˚ C and Starbucks consumers’ appraisal was collected during the period of August, 2005 ~ May 10 in 2007 from Yahoo life websites. After getting rid of the non-related data, a code method is used to deal with document pre-processing. The file after encoding was divided into four groups as the second half of 2005, the first half of 2006 , the second half of 2006 , and the first half of 2007. To analyze these four KeyGraph diagrams, the findings showed the rapid growing on 85˚ C coffee chain stores were different from and . According to the customers’ comments, 85˚ C introduced products for an ' unexpensive, mid taste , average service quality’ group, which caused the bludgeoning to E-coffee on 'low-price-market' to take the picture. They have attracted customers of unexpensive-picky named groups too. The scenario found in this study will not only help the coffee chain industry to draft it’s development tactics, but also to offer other industries some advice while drafting their business tactics in the future. On the other hand, KeyGraph research design offered in this study made a good contribution to the application of the KeyGraph tool.

Thesis focuses the topic of individual change and discusses possibilities of its support in terms of psychological (self)coaching. The theoretical part summarizes key psychological traits, which may affect the success of change implementation, than provides insight into the various phases, stages and processes of both individual and organizational change. Attention is then moved to the issue of individual change goals setting and there are shown several models of goals formulation. Next chapter introduces psychological coaching as a suitable approach to the facilitation of individual change and describes specific techniques and strategies that support individuals achieving goals.
