Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) plays a vital role in maintaining the integrity of structures by providing continuous information about damage or anomalies. Vibration-based SHM, which focuses on the dynamic behavior of structures, offers insights into structural conditions through changes in dynamic properties. Among SHM approaches, damage localization is crucial for pinpointing the geometric l
Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) provides real-time information about structural damage and its evolution over time, which supports decision-makers in managing structural integrity. However, traditional SHM systems, such as vibration-based systems with accelerometers, require laborious installation and maintenance of instrumentation, including sensors, cables, and acquisition systems directly in
In microbiology, cell analysis is an important tool for understanding influences on biotechnological production. Using current bulk methods, the secretome cannot be assigned to the corresponding cell. This contribution reports a novel method for cell separation inside microscale droplets. Cells are focused in droplets using bulk acoustic waves before the droplet is split at a bifurcation. For a wi
Background: Neuropsychiatric symptoms (NPS) are highly prevalent in Alzheimer's disease (AD) and are associated with negative outcomes. However, NPS are currently underrecognized at the memory clinic and non-pharmacological interventions are scarcely implemented. Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of the Describe, Investigate, Create, Evaluate (DICE) method™ to improve the care for NPS in AD
We investigate vascular changes during Photodynamic therapy (PDT) of skin tumors using optical Doppler tomography (ODT). The effect of vascular shut down on tumor destruction is currently not known, and to optimize treatment it is relevant to investigate this issue further. Optical Doppler tomography is capable of measuring blood flow in biological tissue down to 1-2 mm with sub-mm/s velocity sens
Integrated models including optics, structures, control systems, and disturbances are important design tools for Extremely Large Telescopes (ELTs). An integrated model has keen formulated for the European ELT and it includes telescope structure, main servos, primary mirror segment control system, wind, optics, wavefront sensor, deformable mirror, and an AO reconstructor and controller. There are t

Problem: Efter alla teoretiska kurser ville jag undersöka verkligheten och försöka översätta en del av teorin till praktiken. Politisk kommunikation intresserar mig och jag tog därför kontakt med Kurt Hansson, informationsansvarig på Kristianstads kommun. Han har hand om den externa kommunikationen och introducerade fenomenet byastämmor för mig. Byastämmorna är en kommunikationskanal mellan kommun
Tänkt dig att du går i skogen en solig dag. Du hör fågelsång, ser vackra blommor och äter blåbär. Inne i skogen känner du ett lugn och kan andas ut från vardagens stress. Inget av detta hade varit möjligt utan en mångfald av arter i skogen, men idag är den hotad. Den biologiska mångfalden hotas av fragmentering och ändrad markanvändning, till exempel så blir våra skogar allt mer artfattiga. SkogsbLoss of biodiversity is an important environmental problem. Many species are threatened due to loss of habitats and fragmentation. Furthermore, loss of biodiversity affects the forests ability to provide ecosystem services such as water regulation. Most people live in urban areas and therefore urban forests are important for recreation and to reduce stress among the citizens, but the forests are a
Popular Abstract in Swedish Papillomvirus (PV) är små virus som förmodligen infekterar alla däggdjur samt fåglar. De papillomvirus som infekterar människa kallas humant papillomvirus (HPV) och kan infektera antingen huden eller slemhinnor. Att livmoderhalscancer orsakas av bestående infektion med HPV har varit känt länge. Man har länge också misstänkt att HPV-infektioner i huden kan orsaka icke-meThe causal relationship between persistent genital infections with human papillomavirus (HPV) and development of cervical cancer is well established. In contrast, the significance of infections with cutaneous HPV for development of non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC) is not well understood. We have evaluated whether seropositivity to cutaneous HPV is a marker for cutaneous HPV infection and used high
This PhD-thesis in Sociology of Law studies ”Law in Progress” by investigating norm-generating processes, which emerge through an interaction between actors over time. The thesis has an empirical approach, thus illustrates these processes through an empirical example, a European “Earth Observation” (EO) initiative: Global Monitoring for Environment and Security (GMES). The main research questions
Background: The adoption of air conditioning (AC) is growing rapidly in developing countries across the world which puts a high burden on electricity distribution systems. This development is mostly driven by income growth and building design, but also due to increasing outdoor temperatures and to provide indoor thermal comfort. Current indoor thermal comfort standards are based on western clothin
This study investigated if clothing material with reflective properties has an effect on heat gain in pilot, specifically, under solar radiation. Two materials, conventional pilot suit material (Old) and material coated with coldblack® (New, Schoeller Technologies AG, Switzerland) were tested over variety of underwear layers and in a box simulating cockpit. A hot plate was used to measure textile
1. Som en reaktion mot herrnhutismens ”blandade” lära definierades den rätta läran av Schartau och än mer av hans efterföljare ofta mycket snävt. Den så kallade bokstriden som bröt ut när andra bandet av Schartaus brev 1830 publicerats, avgränsade negativt schartaulärjungarna genom att de undvek de flesta uppbyggelse- och andaktsböcker. Schartau drev på den konfessionalisering som från omkring 182
Safe languages like Java provide a much more programmerfriendly environment than the low-level languages in which real-time and embedded software have traditionally been implemented. However, an obstacle for widespread use of Java in control applications has been the predictability and real-time performance of garbage collection, and the cumbersome memory management associated with RTSJ NoHeapReal
I slutet av 2010 upplopp i Tunisien ledde till att den Ben Ali regimen som hade styrt Tunisien sedan 1987 föll. Efter regimens fall gjordes efterfrågningar, till stor del från civilsamhället, angående hur man skulle hantera det förflutna i form av en process av övergångsrättvisa (transitional justice). I december 2013 antogs en lag om övergångsrättvisa. Lagen definierade perioden som skulle ingå iIn the end 2010 uprisings in Tunisia led to the fall of the regime of Ben Ali who had governed Tunisia since 1987. After the fall of the government request regarding how to handle the past in form of a transitional justice process was made, mainly from civil society. In December 2013 a law on transitional justice was adopted that defines the period that the transitional justice process is aiming o
Mindre avvikelse är ett begrepp i fastighetsbildningslagen som ger möjlighet att inom vissa ramar göra avsteg från gällande detaljplan vid fastighetsbildning. Syftet med reglerna är bland annat att tillåta små avsteg utan att behöva göra det omfattande och tidskrävande arbetet att ändra en detaljplan. Bestämmelsen, så som den är formulerad i fastighetsbildningslagens 3 kap 2 §, ställer dock krav pIn the Swedish cadastral legislation, “minor exemption” is a concept which can be used when a cadastral measure is carried out within an area covered by a zoning plan. If the measure in question differs from the plan, it can still be allowed given that two conditions are met: the exemption must be minor, and it must not counteract the intentions of the plan. The aim of this work is to answer the
Bakgrund: Muskuloskeletala åkommor är mycket vanliga i den arbetsföra populationen och är en stor bidragande orsak till sjukfrånvaro. Gånganalys är ett vanligt sätt att kliniskt undersöka och bedöma muskuloskeletala sjukdomar, skador och besvär. Befintlig litteratur om gånganalys fokuserar framförallt på patienter med neurologisk påverkan såsom cerebral pares, stroke, multipel skleros eller Parkin
