Background: While patient performance after participating in cardiac rehabilitation programmes after acute myocardial infarction is regularly reported through registry and survey data, information on cardiac rehabilitation programme characteristics is less well described. Aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate Swedish cardiac rehabilitation programme characteristics and adherence to European G

I den här studien används extremvärdesanalys för att beräkna våguppspolning och årlig dynerosion med 10, 50, och 100 års återkomsttid. Frekvensanalysen baseras på en 40 år lång tidsserie med simulerad dynerosion och våguppspolning från Ängelholms strand i Skälderviken. Med SMB-metoden beräknas vågor ute till havs som sedan transformeras till kustnära vågor i vågmodellen SWAN. Våguppspolningen berä

While “meaning negotiation” has become an ubiquitous term, its use is often confusing. A negotiation problem implies not only a convenience to agree, but also diverging interest on what to agree upon. It implies agreement but also the possibility of (voluntary) disagreement. In this chapter, we look at meaning negotiation as the process through which agents starting from different preferred concep

En teknik för att förhindra yterosion och samla ytavrinning är bygga jordvallar (1–1,5 m höga) parallellt medhöjdkurvorna. Denna teknik används över stora områden i Tunisien. I denna studie undersöks hur dessa jord-vallar påverkar ytjordens rumsliga variabilitet av markvattenhalt (θ) och salinitet, dels uttryckt som jordenstotala elektriska konduktivitet (σa) och dels som porvattnets elektriska koOne technique for collecting rainwater and prevent soil erosion applied on large areas in Tunisia involves theuse of soil ridges (1–1.5 m high). These contour ridges are constructed parallel to topographical isolines. Theeffects of the contour ridges on the soil water content (θ) distribution, bulk soil salinity σa, and soil water salin-ity (σw) were investigated in the catchment of El-Gouazine in

The aim of this study was to identify and measure time-consuming human modelling tool activities. Five human modelling tool users at Volvo were observed for five days each. The results showed a wide distribution of both indirect and direct working tasks, as well as non-value added tasks such as waiting time. Most of the activities identified appear to be necessary to perform human modelling simula

An increasing number of patients are successfully resuscitated from cardiac arrest (CA) and subsequently treated in an intensive care unit due to unconsciousness. Approximately half of these patients will die during the first weeks postarrest, typically after a determination of a poor neurologic prognosis and a decision to withdraw life-sustaining therapy (WLST). These decisions are guided by univ

The aim of this paper is to investigate the challenges associated with the industrial implementation of generative design systems. Though many studies have been aimed at validating either the technical feasibility or the usefulness of generative design systems, there is, however, a lack of research on the practical implementation and adaptation in industry. To that end, this paper presents two cas
