Hip fractures are widely spread in today's society and affect a person's quality of life. Osteoporosis is a bone disease that results in more fragile bones and an increased risk of bone fractures, including hip fractures. A method proposed for assessing the fracture risk is finite element (FE) models of the femur. These FE models proved to be effective in predicting the overall mechanical

Global inefficient energy use poses a significant risk to climate change and air quality worldwide; therefore, there is an urgent need to transform today's energy system into one that is rooted in efficiency. The building sector represents an opportunity to reduce energy use and has the potential to unlock additional co-benefits. Today, many of the technologies and design solutions have been p

Som ett resultat av industrialiseringen ändrades varumärkets primära funktion efterhand till att gälla mer i relationen mellan konsumenter och företag. Den tekniska utvecklingen och globaliseringen har lett till en företagskultur där lokala handlare med lokal och i viss mån nationell kundkrets har ersatts av stora kedjor med världsomspännande försäljningsmöjligheter. Förändringarna har resultera

Travel on railway in Sweden has increased steadily over the past three decades and there are today twice as many passengers travelling by train as there were 30 years ago. The increasing awareness of environmental issues with other methods of transportation is likely to favour railway travel, and so the number of passengers is expected to continue to rise. As the number of passengers increase, so

Kollektivtrafikplanering är en balansakt. Å ena sidan är det viktigt att satsa där det finns potential för många resor. Då krävs en koncentration av resurserna till stråk och noder med stort befolkningsunderlag. Å andra sidan är det också angeläget att skapa en rättvis fördelning av den offentliga service som utgörs av kollektivtrafiksystemet, så att även människor i mer glesbefolkade områden ges This thesis addresses the demand for more knowledge regarding regional public transport (between urban areas or to and from rural areas). More specifically, the aim is to develop a better understanding of the effects of different service planning decisions in terms of different trade-offs and their impacts on the overarching objectives of public transport provision. The studied trade-offs concern,

The intention of this master thesis is to model the internal flow of an Alfa Laval course Filter with 20 cm inlet and normal outlet (ALF20), which is an automatic self cleaning filter aimed to rinse the cooling water upstream the inlet of a compact heat exchanger. Along the automatic cleaning process the ALF20 turn into a flushing and a back flushing operation mode. The ALF20 consists of a filter

Acoustophoresis, the manipulation of microscopic particles by acoustic forces, has found growing use in biomedical applications ranging from blood-cell separation to single-cell positioning in microfluidic chips [1,2,3,4]. Existing multimodal control algorithms for such devices were developed under the assumption that particles do not influence one another. This simplification holds when only one

Changing Landscapes and Persistent Places is a study of the cultural landscape on the Bjäre peninsula in northwest Skåne. The many Bronze Age remains that give the landscape its distinctive character are the starting point for an attempt to increase our understanding of the historical depth of today’s landscape. The two perspectives of “landscape” and “places” carry the discussion forward, almost

Popular Abstract in Swedish Denna doktorsavhandling syftar till att identifiera och tolka förändringar i den marina miljön, avspeglade i Gotlands siluriska berggrund. Silurperioden (ca 444-416 miljoner år sedan) har traditionellt beskrivits som ett tidsintervall med ett varmt växthusklimat och hög global havsnivå med små miljömässiga förändringar i den marina miljön. Under det senaste decenniet haThis thesis treats the Silurian carbonate platforms of Gotland, Sweden, which formed close to the equator within the East Baltic Basin. Three different time intervals, all involving changes in facies composition and structure of the platforms, have been studied; Late Homerian, latest Homerian ? earliest Gorstian, and late Ludfordian, respectively. Two of the intervals, the Late Homerian and the la

Popular Abstract in Swedish Respiratorbehandling i hemmet till patienter med kronisk underventilering (som kan bero på flera olika grundsjukdomar) har blivit allmänt accepterad, eftersom behandlingen kan ge symptomlindring och förbättrad överlevnad. Syfte: Att undersöka vilka behandlingsmotiv som föranleder start av respiratorbehandling i hemmet och att kvantifiera effekterna av behandlingen på pHome mechanical ventilation in patients with chronic respiratory failure secondary to several different diseases has become widely acceptable as the provision of ventilatory support can provide symptomatic relief and increase life expectancy. Aims: To study the selection criteria underlying the initiation of home mechanical ventilation and to quantify the effects of in relation to blood gases and

The processes of meltwater storage in firn and the impact of refreezing on firn-coveredglaciers have been investigated on the Greenland ice-sheet. On Svalbard, climate changepromotes the disappearance of firn on glaciers. This thesis project aims to monitor theheat exchanges between the snowpack and the ice surface on a non firn-covered glacier,on Foxfonna, Spitzbergen, Svalbard, and to draw the p

Erosion of coastal areas is experienced in many countries around the world. The natural beach dynamics is caused by hydrodynamic processes, variations in sediment transport rates and frequency of storm events but anthropogenic influences may also contribute to an increased erosion/accretion of the shoreline. Maputo city, located in the southeastern part of Mozambique, have during the last decays e

Residual stress can be introduced unintentionally into the workpiece with various magnitudes and distributions through all manufacturing processes. These stresses have a significant effect upon the performance of the final component. Understanding the residual stress imparted by machining is an essential aspect of understanding the machining process and overall part quality. Although many investig

Stormwater management is essential for preventing urban flooding and protecting water quality in receiving bodies. Traditionally viewed as a nuisance, stormwater is now being re-evaluated as an alternative resource for non-potable uses such as toilet flushing and irrigation through rainwater harvesting systems (RWHS). Within the European Union's Horizon 2020 project REWAISE, pilot studies with cer

Context. To be able to investigate the chemical history of the entire Milky Way, it is imperative to also study its dust-obscured regions in detail, as this is where most of the mass lies. The Galactic Center is an example of such a region. Due to the intervening dust along the line of sight, near-infrared spectroscopic investigations are necessary to study this region of interest.Aims. The aim of
