Bakgrund Handboll innehåller mycket kroppskontakt och riktningsförändringar i hög hastighet och med stora krafter. Baserat på sportens utformning är axelskador vanligt förekommande, både i form av akuta skador till följd av att spelare blir dragna i armen eller landar på armen, och överbelastningsskador från upprepade skott och passningar. Syftet med studien var att kartlägga och jämföra förekomst
Emergency and crisis management research is tightly coupled to practical problems. Yet, within that research tradition, surprisingly little has been done in terms of developing a practice of design research. The present report presents literature surveys aimed at investigating how, and to what extent, such research has been conducted. Although the focus is on command and control problems the mater
Many countries have established disaster risk management systems. These systems involve various parties and aim to maximize resources and use their diverse expertise to manage disaster risks. In such systems, sharing risk and vulnerability assessments (RVAs) between stakeholders is the most common way to communicate risk-related information. This study investigates communication challenges linked
Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingen undersöker de två behandlingsalternativ, hemodialys och njurtransplantation, som är tillgängliga för personer med njursvikt. I fokus för undersökningen står de former av person- och patientskap som skapas och upprätthålls i hemodialys- och njurtransplantationsvården samt i de njursjukas vardagsliv. Ett av avhandlingens grundläggande antaganden är att dessa This thesis examines the practice of haemodialysis and kidney transplantation, the two medical therapies available for persons with kidney failure, from a phenomenological perspective. A basic assumption made in the thesis is that contemporary biomedicine is deeply embedded in the cultural, historical, economic, and political circumstances provided by the particular local, national, and transnatio
The advent of Java and similar languages on the real-time system scene necessitates the development of efficient strategies for scheduling the work of a garbage collector in a non-intrusive way. We propose a scheduling strategy, time-triggered garbage collection, based on assigning the collector a deadline for when it must complete its current cycle. We show that a time-triggered CC with fixed dea
A somewhat self-critical discussion of the role played by socio-historical information (e.g. about money in social relations) in historical interpretation of ancient and early Christian history, and of the standpoints of Gerd Theissen, Justin Meggitt and Eckehard and Wolfgang Stegemann in this area. The article also explores the role of sociological or social-scientific models in historical recons
Popular Abstract in Swedish Elektriska pulser (PEF) är en nyligen introducerad icke-termisk livsmedelsprocess, som har en karakteristisk påverkan på cellmembranet. PEF-behandling innebär att livsmedlet utsätts för korta och upprepade pulser emellan en anod och en katod. Det huvudsakliga resultatet av denna process är en skada på cellmembranet, som leder till bildandet av antingen tillfälliga ellerA pulsed electric field (PEF) is a newly emerged non-thermal food processing technology which has characteristic effects on the cell membrane. PEF processing involves subjecting food to short, repeated pulses of a high electric field between an anode and a cathode. The main result of this process is the disruption of the cell membrane leading to the formation of either temporary or permanent pores
This paper describes preliminary results from the test-retest of the NAME 1.0. Four scales were tested: Mobility-related participation frequency; Mobility ease/difficulty; Mobility dependence; Extent of assistance in mobility. The test was conducted in the five Nordic countries. In all 147 mobility device users took part in the study, mean age 60 years (range 19 - 93). Each participant was intervi
The transcription factor interferon regulatory factor-8 (IRF8) is highly expressed in myeloid progenitors, while most myeloid leukemias show low or absent expression. Loss of IRF8 in mice leads to a myeloproliferative disorder, indicating a tumor-suppressive role of IRF8. The Wilms tumor gene 1 (WT1) protein represses the IRF8-promoter. The zinc finger protein ZNF224 can act as a transcriptional c
This paper presents a study of disfluencies in written language production. Texts from ten university students are compared to data from people who almost never use writing, namely adult dyslexics and to texts from people who communicate in writing under real-time constraints every day, namely deaf whose main use of writing is text telephone conversations. This paper investigates which types of di
We take as our starting point the view that one of the main objectives of an emergency response operation is to meet the assistance needs that arise in the affected population during an emergency. In Sweden, like in most of the world, there has been a substantial increase in societal emergency preparedness activities during the last few years. At the local level, municipalities are required by leg
Popular Abstract in Swedish Luftburna partiklar från transportsektorn och energiproduktion kan ge upphov till negativa hälsoeffekter hos människor och påverka det globala klimatet. Partiklarnas kemiska och fysikaliska egenskaper förändras när de åldras i atmosfären och ny partikelmassa kan bildas från ämnen som tidigare var i gasfas. Det övergripande syftet med den här avhandlingen är att öka kunsEmissions from anthropogenic combustion sources, such as light duty vehicles and small scale biomass combustion, contribute significantly to ambient aerosol particle concentrations both on local and global scales. These emissions have controlling impacts on public health and global climate. The overall aim of this thesis was to investigate how atmospheric transformation and combustion conditions a
Tänk om Apples Siri kunde fylla i en blankett åt dig på jobbet. Eller om Google Assistant planerade veckans inköpslista. Tänk om alla banala sysslor som du utför rutinmässigt utan någon djupare åtanke kunde skötas automatiskt av en artificiell intelligens, AI. Hur underhållande detta scenario än får vara så är en framtid där alla har en personlig universell assistent fortfarande långt borta. Men äThe Cascade-Correlation learning algorithm, Cascor, is a self-constructive learning algorithm introduced by Fahlman in 1990, which builds the networks one node at the time based on the errors of the network. Cascor has been criticized for creating excessively deep networks and easily overfit. This thesis investigates a few methods that use an internal validation set to add nodes that perform bette
This report is based on work made on the behalf of Strålfors, a Swedish company, which focuses on customer communication. Their business idea is to help companies communicate with their customers in different ways. Now Strålfors wants to expand into the mobile application market and thus help their customers with communication through smartphones. In this project a study of potential users and a s
This report is part of the course VBR054 Fire Safety Evaluation at the Department of Fire Safety Engineering at Lund University. The report is an evaluation of the fire safety regarding evacuation at Idrottens hus in Helsingborg. Idrottens hus is a multi-purpose arena which hosts concerts and various sports events. A number of likely fire scenarios are identified and three of the scenarios are cho
