Due to the corrosion problem in reinforced concrete structures, the use of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) bars may be preferred in place of traditional reinforcing steel. FRP bars are used in concrete constructions to boost the strength of structural elements and retain their longevity. In this study, the axial load carrying capacity (ALCC) of the FRP-reinforced concrete columns has been evaluated

Problem Definition: Ericsson wants to increase their focus on reducing the total cost of packaging for the company in the whole world. They want to create a simple calculation model that can calculate the total packaging cost and compare different packaging solutions (country, freight, packaging, and product) in order to find the most cost effective packaging solution. This will facilitate the dev

With unrest prominent in the entire world, cybersecurity is more important than ever before. With this, the need for education and strengthening practices within critical infrastructure and organisations is growing. This master’s thesis is done in collaboration with the Swedish Defense Research Agency (FOI) and aims to create a new Graphical User Interface (GUI) for their cybersecurity tool Scanni

BackgroundDischarge from a neonatal care unit is often experienced as a vulnerable time for parents. By communicating through digital technology, it may be possible to improve the support for parents and thereby make the transition from hospital to home less stressful.AimTo develop an eHealth device supporting the transition from hospital to home for parents with a preterm‐born child in Sweden usi

When relativistic electrons are used to irradiate tissues, such as during FLASH pre-clinical irradiations, the electron beam energy is one of the critical parameters that determine the dose distribution. Moreover, during such irradiations, linear accelerators (linacs) usually operate with significant beam loading, where a small change in the accelerator output current can lead to beam energy reduc

In early 2019, a system of sensors, projectors, and software was created for the purpose of improving the experience of entering Sony’s offices in Lund, Sweden. The system attracted attention, both internally and externally, and grew organically in features and scope to meet the needs of its initial customers. Due to its modularity and wide applicability, it came to be known as the Interactive Con

Optimization is becoming a standard methodology in many engineering disciplines to improve products and processes. The need for optimization is driven by factors such as increased costs for raw materials and stricter environmental regulations as well as a general need to meet increased competition. As model-based design processes are being used increasingly in industry, the prerequisites for optim

More efficient solar cells that are ultra-thin and flexible. Cleaner fuel that uses light to convert carbon dioxide into carbon monoxide. These are examples of discoveries that show how knowledge of light and materials can create new, more sustainable products for the future. Advanced basic researchWith the expertise available at Lund Laser Centre (LLC), NanoLund and MAX IV, researchers are now ab

Vision Goggle is a concept smart eyewear that can remind user to use their eyes reasonably by detecting real-time eye condition. This project is aimed at people’s eye discomfort caused by prolonged computer use, especiallyfor the user who spend more than 2 hours a day on computers. The symptoms caused by long screen time are referred to as Computer Vision Syndrome (CVS), and the two most common o

This master thesis describes a graduation work that was carried out on a heating plant owned by Sydbränsle AB. It describes the resulting control system, the way to final resolutions and conclusions. The goal was the usage of a PC as an operator interface to simplify the supervising and controlling of the heating plant. Man/machine interface would be simplified extensibly so that all the untrained

The aim for the project was to develop a risk analyse tool for measuring the fire safety level in Cultural Heritage buildings of Visby, Gotland. In 1995 Visby were taken into the Unesco:s World Heritage List with the explanation ?Visby is an outstanding example of a Northern European walled Hanseatic town which has in a unique way preserved its townscape and its extremely valuable buildings? One o

Dangerous consumption of alcohol or other drugs can quickly lead to major problems mentally, physically and socially. At the Student Health Centre, our main priority is to work to promote students’ health. Therefore, we think that it is especially important to be able to pick up on dangerous drinking, drug use, gaming and gambling problems at an early stage. Shortcuts to page content:Alcohol and d

Parkinson's disease is a progressive disorder that attacks a person's nervous system. The disease is incurable and can cause cognitive symptoms such as tremors and impaired movement. A Parkinson's patient has several different caregivers. It is important that the patient has access to palliative care throughout the disease. To assist patients and healthcare providers, a support plan ha

Background: Recombination reshuffles alleles at linked loci, allowing genes to evolve independently and consequently enhancing the efficiency of selection. This makes quantifying recombination along chromosomes an important goal for understanding how selection and drift are acting on genes and chromosomes. Results: We present RecView, an interactive R application and its homonymous R package, to f

Background: There has been a lack of a standardized protocol for collection of patient reported outcomes (PRO) and detection of and indication for psychological treatment in cleft care. The objectives of this paper was to translate Cleft Hearing Appearance and Speech Questionnaire (CHASQ) into eight European languages, to investigate whether levels of PRO in patients with cleft lip and/or cleft pa

Higher availability of future climate data sets, generated by regional climate models (RCMs) with fine temporal and spatial resolutions, improves and facilitates the impact assessment of climate change. Due to significant uncertainties in climate modeling, several climate scenarios should be considered in the impact assessment. This increases the number of simulations and size of data sets, compli
