Background: Ambulatory oxygen therapy is prescribed for patients with chronic lung diseases who experience exertional hypoxemia. However, available devices may not adequately meet user requirements, and their performance characteristics are heterogeneous. Objective: This study aims to identify devices available for delivery of ambulatory oxygen therapy, the technologies that they use to generate o

The Kuramoto model evolves on the circle, i.e., the 1-sphere mathsf S^ 1. A graph mathcal G is referred to as mathsf S^ 1 -synchronizing if the Kuramoto model on mathcal G synchronizes almost globally. This paper generalizes the Kuramoto model and the concept of synchronizing graphs to the Stiefel manifold St (p, n). Previous work on generalizations of the Kuramoto model have largely been influenc

The extracellular matrix (ECM) is not just a 3 dimensional scaffold that provides stable support for all cells in the lungs but is also an important component of chronic fibrotic airways, vascular, and interstitial diseases. It is a bioactive entity that is dynamically modulated during tissue homeostasis and disease, which controls structural and immune cell functions, drug responses, and which ca

The field of research dealing with the integration of biomolecules with electronic elements to form functional devices is called ‘‘bioelectronics’’. Bioelectronics based on mediated electron transfer (MET) between the biological element and the electrodes are designated as “second generation” while the one based on direct electron transfer (DET) is specified as “third generation”. Implanted bioele

The aim of the project is the reconstruction of the district Bento Rodrigues located in the state of Minas Gerais; Brazil destroyed by the collapse of a mining dam Fundão in November 2015. This disaster was one of the biggest tragedy in the country. Mud covered the village, a river flooded and all the waste arrived until the Atlantic Ocean, including one of the most important rivers, the Rio Doce.

Bör det utökade strandskyddet behållas i Hässleholms kommun? Miljön omkring sjöar och vattendrag har många viktiga funktioner. Den hyser en stor biologisk mångfald, den förser oss med ekosystemtjänster och den kan rena det vatten som slutligen når ut i havet. Dessutom lämpar den sig väl för friluftslivsaktiviteter som bad, fiske och promenader. I Sverige har vi sedan lång tid tillbaka haft ett sAbstract Lakes and streams constitute important habitats for many organisms. These environments are also valuable for recreation and health for human beings. The aim of the shoreline protection legislation is to protect shores from settlements so that natural and recreational values are conserved. Areas with high values may have an extended shoreline protection of a maximum of 300 meters. The pur

MAX-lab is a synchrotron radiation laboratory run in cooperation between Lund University and the Swedish Research Council. It currently consists of three stor-age rings, however, construction has begun of the fourth. MAX IV will be located outside of the Lund University Faculty of Engineering campus, in the northeastern part of Lund. Induced by the development in material technology at the nanomet

The Commission initiated, in 2002 alone, over 2300 cases of alleged infringements of EC law under the general mechanism for supranational monitoring provided for in article 226 of the EC Treaty. Most cases were terminated before the formal infringement procedure started whereas some were taken all the way to the Court of Justice for a judicial solution. One of the few theoretical accounts of the

De senaste åren har upphovsrätten fått mycket uppmärksamhet eftersom den digitala utvecklingen och framväxandet av Internet gjort det möjligt att snabbt och utan kvalitetsförlust lagra och överföra stora mängder ljud, bild och text. Denna överföring är inte sällan olovlig och det sker idag omfattande upphovsrättsintrång över Internet. I dessa intrång är det i huvudsak tre olika aktörer som är inblIn recent years, copyright law has been given much attention since the digital development and the emergence of the Internet made it possible to quickly storage and transfer large amounts of audio, images and text without loss of quality. The transfer is often illegal and there is a widespread copyright infringement going on in the Internet environment. In these infringements there are three main

One of the central issues in the design and the use of pulsed neutron sources is the control of pulse length in elastic scattering experiments, most significantly diffraction on crystalline matter. On the existing short pulse spallation sources the strongly wavelength dependent source pulse length that determines the resolution is permanently fixed on each beam line by the type of the moderator it

Generation of good non-repeatable and non-predictable random number sequences is of increasing importance, both in security applications and in simulations. A novel, compact system is presented in which a secure random number is generated by sampling a chaotic system and using this bitstream as the input to a pseudo-random generator. An optional hash function can be used on the seed in order to de

Popular Abstract in Swedish Växters fenologi påverkar ekosystemens funktion och tjänster, och återkopplar till klimatet genom att påverka utbytet av kol, vatten och energi mellan atmosfär och ekosystem. Under de senaste decennierna har växternas fenologi studerats i allt större omfattning, men fortfarande är osäkerheten stor och enighet saknas om klimatets inverkan på fenologi och förändringar övePlant phenology exerts major influences on carbon, water, and energy exchanges between atmosphere and ecosystems, provides feedbacks to climate, and affects ecosystem functioning and services. Great efforts have been spent in studying plant phenology over the past decades, but there are still large uncertainties and disputations in phenology estimation, trends, and its climate sensitivities. This

In this thesis, two ways of fabrication of nanometer-sized semiconductor features are presented. Low Energy Ion Implantation (LEII) has been used to create shallow (sub-50 nm) and laterally small (5 m m – 200 nm) features by 10 keV As⁺ doping of B background doped Si. Surface topography and electrical modification has been characterised using Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) and Scanning C

In a joint project – Human Factors in ANS, HUFA - between the Swedish Civil Aviation Administration and Lund University the aim is to find out how a new team-based organization and the introduction of a new air traffic control system will affect safety culture and psychosocial working environment by changes in organizational climate, team climate and leadership. All in all, four studies will be co

Drama at work - How social workers cope with compulsory care cases due to neglect The purpose of this study was to examine how social workers cope with compulsory care cases due to neglect. This essay aims to highlight the difficult, and often emotionally hard, process of making a legitimate decision. I´ve chose power as my main perspective in order to examine my purpose. My methodology was quali

Äganderätt är den mest långtgående civilrättsliga förfoganderätten till egendom som kan innehas. Före den 1 maj 2009 har det inte varit möjligt i Sverige att inneha enskild lägenhet med direkt äganderätt trots att detta utgör den vanligaste ägarformen för lägenheter i flertalet EU-medlemsstater. Motståndet mot ägarlägenhetsinstitutet har såväl varit juridiskt som bostadspolitiskt till sin karaktärOwnership to property is the most extensive legal right of disposal that can be possessed. Before the 1 of May 2009 it was not possible in Sweden to hold a direct ownership of a flat despite freehold flats (SW. “ägarlägenhet”) being the most common legal form of ownership to a flat in other EU-member states. The resistance towards this institute has been based on legal as well as political argumen

The choice of society – who is to vote? Opportunities to participation in the general elections for people with intellectual disabilities related to the Swedish national objective of an accessible society for all citizens The aim of this study is twofold; first to examine how Swedish government authorities and other relevant actors in the society regard the accessibility of general elections for
