När extraordinära händelser inträffar, handlar de akuta insatserna för de drabbade om livräddning och akutsjukvård. Annan praktisk hjälp t.ex. att åtgärda vattenförsörjning och återställa infrastruktur ingår i kommunernas och andra myndigheters insatser. Sedan slutet av 1980-talet har även det psykologiska och sociala stödet uppmärksammats. I samband med s.k. Kistaolyckan 1988, då skolelever dog i
Popular Abstract in Swedish Denna studie rapporterar ett undervisningsförsök i en 8:e klass (age 14-15) med 20 elever. Eleverna har bearbetat en naturvetenskaplig problemställning om växthuseffekten och jordens globala uppvärmning utifrån ett problemlösande och informationssökandarbete i grupp. Deras uppgift har varit att beskriva de fenomen och faktorer som påverkar jordens globala temperatur i oThis study gives an account of a teaching situation in the eighth grade with 20 student's aged 14-15. The students have worked with a scientific problem focussed on the greenhouse effect and the earth's global warming, based on a problem solving and information seeking way of working in groups. Their task has been to describe the phenomena and factors that influence the earth's global temperature

Popular Abstract in Swedish Intraoperativ strålbehandling (IORT) innebär att en hög engångsstråldos ges direkt under operation till den kirurgiskt frilagda tumören och/eller kvarvarande tumörrester. Den vanligaste typen av strålning som används vid denna behandlingsform är elektronstrålning från konventionella medicinska linjäracceleratorer. Det krävs dock att ett speciellt applikatorsystem finns The aim of this work was to quantify limitations of and uncertainties in commonly used dosimetric techniques for relative absorbed dose determination in degraded electron beams, such as those encountered in intraoperative radiation therapy (IORT) and small-electron-field radiotherapy. Three different detector types were investigated with regard to measurements of output factors and relative absorb
Popular Abstract in Swedish Inom kemin kan uppbyggnaden av molekylära aggregat styras genom att använda sig av kovalenta bindningar eller genom att utnyttja svaga växelverkningar. Den moderna kemin baseras på många års grundforskning på reaktionsförlopp där bildningen av en kovalent bindning stått i fokus vilket har gjort det möjligt att förutsäga utfallet av en sådan reaktion. Däremot är det betyThis thesis is devoted to the development and investigation of a supramolecular system used to catalyze Jacobsen-Katsuki epoxidations with the aim to attain substrate selectivity without product inhibition. The supramolecular catalyst is composed of two well-defined entities or units: a catalytic and a receptor. The keyword for the design was flexibility. The interactions foming the supramolecula
Popular Abstract in Swedish Det mesta i min avhandling handlar om utveckling av uppreningsprocesser i läkemedelsindurstin. Den stora kostnaden för läkemedelsföretagen ligger oftast inte i att producera ett läkemedel, utan att ta fram en produkt. Det är också långt ifrån alla kandidater till läkemedel som till slut blir en produkt. Detta kan till exempel bero på att kandidaten inte var tillräckligtIn my thesis, I have modeled adsorption chromatography and simulated, calibrated, and analyzed models of adsorption chromatography. While my main focus has been modeling and calibration of the models by estimating the parameters, the models used have been partly new. The simulations are differentiated from the modeling in that the modeling describes the partial differential algebraic equation, whi
Andris Blekte säger att man inte kan lära sig avspänning genom att läsa om den. När folk genom åren har frågat honom om litteratur i ämnet avspänning, har han alltid svarat att de borde lägga sig ner på golvet istället för att leta i böcker. Och ändå är detta en skrift om avspänning. Men inte någon handbok! Det går inte att med denna skrift i sin hand göra alla de övningar som skriften beskriver.
Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingen består av fyra artiklar som behandlar olika aspekter av vattenvågor med vorticitet. Artikel I: Symmetry of steady periodic gravity water waves with vorticity. Vi bevisar att en fortskridande, periodisk, två-dimensionell, rotationell gravitationsvåg, med en ytprofil som är monoton mellan vågdalar och vågtoppar, måste vara symmetrisk kring vågtoppen, oavseAbstract: This thesis consists of four papers related to various aspects of water waves with vorticity. Paper I: Symmetry of steady periodic gravity water waves with vorticity. We prove that steady periodic two-dimensional rotational gravity water waves with a monotone surface profile between troughs and crests have to be symmetric about the crest, irrespective of the vorticity distribution wit
Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingen behandlar den svenska fotbollens kulturhistoria från 1800-talets slut fram till år 1950. Det är berättelsen om hur spelet gradvis etableras, överkommer en mängd inre och yttre problem och konflikter, för att träda in i sin guldålder under 1940-talet. Mer konkret följs hur fotbollens medelklassdominerade maktelit försökte kontrollera skeendet inom en sport pThis thesis concerns Swedish football´s cultural history from the end of the nineteenth century to 1950. It is the story of how the game was gradually established, and overcame a great number of internal and external problems and conflicts, before entering its sporting and cultural golden age during the 1940s. I demonstrate how this game´s middle-class dominated power elite tried to control the de
The world is rapidly urbanizing. To contribute to the understanding of the socio-environmental changes brought about by urban sprawl and densification, this thesis examines wellbeing and vulnerability in low-income peri-urban areas in and around Bogotá, Colombia. For that purpose, I develop a typology of peri-urban settlements that includes four main settlement classifications: agriculture-based,
Det första skedet när ett byggnadsverk ska uppföras är det konceptuella designskedet, det är här de första besluten om utformningen av byggnadsverket görs. I det traditionella arbetsflödet utformas byggnadsverket först i ett ritprogram, sedan används ett annat datorverktyg för att verifiera att det utformade byggnadsverket kan hantera de krafter som uppstår, t.ex. vind, egentyngd osv. Detta arbeteBefore a new structure can be built, it must be designed. This design phase is a very important step in the building process. The total cost of the structure and its structural performance are largely dependent on the structural design process. The impact of decisions on the design process is initially high and declines as the design matures. However, few computational tools are available for the

Delegating tasks from a human to a robot needs an efficient and easy-to-use communication pipeline between them - especially when inexperienced users are involved. This work presents a robotic system that is able to bridge this communication gap by exploiting 3D sensing for gesture recognition and real-time object segmentation. We visually extract an unknown object indicated by a human through a p
For metallic glasses, it is of vital importance to understand the glass formation properties and to be able to predict the crystallization process in the supercooled liquid. In the present work, we model the process of nucleation and growth using a combination of classical nucleation and phase-field theory. A diffusion coupled phase-field model is used to evaluate the work of formation and the gro

In an experiment on Copenhagen adults, we allow subjects to choose whether to learn the calorie content of a meal before consuming it, and measure their subsequent calorie intake.

Enligt Arbetsmiljöverkets rapport ”Arbetsmiljön 2013” har 40 procent av alla hotell- och kontorsstädare ont i nacke, rygg, axlar eller armar varje vecka. 60 procent av dem känner sig uttröttade i kroppen.
