(PhD Thesis;2018:77, Doctoral thesis, 2018)The population of the world is projected to reach almost 10 billion by 2050. To be able to feed everyone, we must increase food production by at least 50%. This must be achieved by a sector already responsible for a quarter ... -
Hyperspectral photoluminescence imaging of silicon wafers and solar cells
(PhD Thesis;2018:59, Doctoral thesis, 2018)Hyperspectral photoluminescence imaging is a non-destructive characterization method used to study radiative defects in crystalline silicon wafers and solar cells. It provides both spatial distribution and spectral response ... -
Extracting movement patterns from geographical trajectory data
(PhD Thesis;2018:96, Doctoral thesis, 2018)Thanks to the recent advent of inexpensive positioning technologies, data about movement of various mobile objects are collected in rapidly growing amounts. Massive repositories of movement data require developing new data ... -
Implementation of GNSS data integrity for precise real-time positioning
(PhD Thesis;2018:14, Doctoral thesis, 2018)In recent years, the area of global navigation satellite systems (GNSS) has received a lot of attention, with a large range of fruitful results. This includes systems; the advent of European (Galileo) and Chinese (Beidou) ... -
Optimisation of wastewater treatment systems with data mining and process modelling
(PhD Thesis;2018:43, Doctoral thesis, 2018)Wastewater treatment facilities serve an important purpose in public sanitation. Wastewater treatment plants (WWTP) are built at the end of sewerage systems to purify the wastewater before it enters natural water bodies. ... -
High-throughput screening of filamentous fungi for single cell oil production by microplate cultivation and FTIR spectroscopy
(PhD Thesis;2018:20, Doctoral thesis, 2018)Microorganisms have been considered for nearly a century for the production of economical and useful oils, but only in the past two or three decades they have been used commercially. These single cell oils contain high ... -
Rapid spectroscopic methods for predicting water-holding capacity in meat
(PhD Thesis;2018:3, Doctoral thesis, 2018)Water-holding capacity (WHC) is one of the most important quality traits in meat, and the main aim of this thesis was to examine the potential for rapid spectroscopic techniques to predict WHC in meat. A secondary aim was ... -
Science education for our common future: Education for sustainable development in science teacher education
(PhD Thesis;2018:5, Doctoral thesis, 2018)The aim of this thesis was to develop knowledge on how education for sustainable development (ESD) can be realised in the education of science teachers. The aim was pursued through three articles: one theoretical article ... -
Multiscale modeling of the early visual pathway
(PhD Thesis;2018:40, Doctoral thesis, 2018)The human brain contains billions of neurons connected through synapses, making it a highly complex system that researchers have been trying to understand for centuries. One way of increasing our understanding of the brain ... -
Geopolymer Concrete Incorporated with Microencapsulated Phase change materials for Energy Efficient Buildings
(PhD Thesis;2018:72, Doctoral thesis, 2018)This study aims to develop new environmentally friendly construction materials with high energy storage capacity by using geopolymer concrete containing microencapsulated phase change materials (MPCM) to reduce energy ... -
Modelling and control of kinematically complex robotic systems
(PhD Thesis;2015:80, Doctoral thesis, 2018-04-30)This thesis is concerned with modelling and control of kinematically complex robotic systems. The thesis is divided into four main parts. Part I is concerned with a large class of robotic systems, namely vehicle-manipulator ... -
Multi-constellation satellite navigation : precise orbit determination and point positioning
