AimTo investigate whether reduced lung function is a risk factor for developing diabetes. MethodsNon-diabetic men (n = 382) from the population-based cohort 'Men Born in 1914' were examined with spirometry at age 55 years. The cohort was re-examined at 68 years. Diabetes and fasting plasma glucose at follow-up were studied in relation to vital capacity (VC) and forced expiratory volume (FEV1.0) a
We study deterministic algorithms for gossiping problem in ad hoc radio networks. The gossiping problem is a communication task in which each node of the network possesses a unique single message that is to be communicated to all other nodes in the network. The efficiency of a communication algorithm in radio networks is very often expressed in terms of: max-eccentricity D, max-indegree Δ, and siz
A Yersinia PCR-Compatible Enrichment (YPCE) medium was developed, which removes the necessity for sample pretreatment before PCR-based detection of Yersinia enterocolitica. The medium was designed through a sequence of independent screening and factorial design experiments to study the PCR inhibition and growth characteristics of medium components. The compatibility of the YPCE medium was evaluate
This paper investigates the effect of chlorine and silver ion solutions on the survival of Bacillus cereus (vegetative phase) and Staphylococcus aureus in batch cultures, representing dishwater. Dishwater contains organic matter and bacteria and bacterial activities are partly reduced by high pH (11-12) and temperature (55-65 degrees C) in professional and domestic dishwashers. in manual dishwashi

This thesis investigates the development of an innovative eco-smart cabin for the Smart dishwasher, undertaken in collaboration with Nordisk Clean Solutions. The primary research objectives were to explore the possibilities of reducing costs, weight, welding requirements, and assembly time while evaluating the environmental impacts of the new design. Key research questions focused on whether these
My intention with this project was to investigate the possibilities and difficulties with working in Vietnam as a Scandinavian designer. As a means of the investigation I was going to develop products in collaborations with local handicraft manufacturers using locally sourced materials. In the end it turned out to be so much more than only investigating possibilities and difficulties; it turned o
This master thesis examines a space issue in compact living and results in a transformable chair that also can serve as a bench. A big part of the project is the complex and creative way for the designer to fi nd his form language. Th is report looks closer on compact living, furniture in general, the chair especially, trends, infl uences from the furniture industry, carpentry and related subjects
The basic idea of archiving is to preserve information. Disposal should be undertaken in a manner that minimises the loss of information. Disposal should never take place without regulatory support. What does disposal of documents mean?Disposal means the destruction of information in its entirety and forever (discarding, shredding, burning, deleting electronically etc.). You must ensure that dispo

Popular Abstract in English Every level of human existence is affected by forced migration. It affects the central aspects of our outer and inner life. However, scientific research focused on the inner life of forced migrants, in particular the one regarding the impacts of forced migration on the most significant values that we hold in life, is often marginalized in forced migration studies. In anUntil recently studies regarding the pathological aspects of refugee experiences have led the psychology field of forced migration, giving little space to positive factors like the resilience and well-being of individuals faced with these adversities. This doctoral thesis emphasizes good health rather than disease and aims at deepening the understanding of resilience and health as opposed to the d

The department disposes a phone support where informants from the public sector can call to ask questions that may occur. To increase the effectiveness of the staffing system, our commission is to develop statistical models which can be used to predict
This study examines whether machine learning (ML) models can forecast daily Bitcoin price directions and generate statistically significant alpha in trading strategies. Employing a dual-model approach, we utilize a Random Forest (RF) classifier, leveraging its non-linear strengths and a LASSO-penalized logistic regression as a linear benchmark. Both models are trained on a comprehensive dataset o
Inom stålindustrin är naturlig konvektion en konventionell kylningsmetod. Genom att öka kylhastigheten jämfört med naturlig konvektion kan produktiviteten öka då kylbäddarna kan kortas och stålplåtarna tillbringar mindre tid under kylning. Detta frigör plats och sparar tid. Då möjligheten att använda infraljud till kylning redan har bekräftats genom experiment, ska denna masteruppsats försöka besvIn the steel industry, a conventional cooling method is natural convection. By increasing the cooling rate compared to natural convection, the productivity can be increased as cooling beds can be shortened, and the steel plates spend less time in cooling. This frees up space and saves time. As the ability to use infrasound for cooling had already been verified through experiments, this master thes
Inspired by environmental peacebuilding literature, this research explores the peacebuilding potential of natural resources through a qualitative case study of a conflict-affected community’s transition of livelihood strategies from coca cultivation to butterfly farming. The fieldwork was carried out with peasant families in rural Otanche - a biodiversity-rich area that, besides the Colombian conf
In order to decrease the dependence on fossil fuels it is of paramount importance that renewable sources are used as effectively as possible. Therefore it is necessary to store excess energy when supply is higher than de-mand. One way to do so is by storing the energy as compressed air in a porous aquifer.
