Metallic hip prosthesis is an implant that gets more common and comes with problems like metallosis (inflammation due to metallic debris). Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) which is a superior method when imaging soft tissue (compared to other medical imaging techniques) is affected by metal implants and will result in a distorted image.

Induction machines have been used in a wide range of applications due to its robustness and its low price. These characteristics make the induction machine a suitable option for industrial and home environments especially for those applications where the required speed is constant and the load does not change drastically. As an alternative to the induction machine, the synchronous machine, particu
Data Mining has a reputation in social science for lacking statistical rigour. This study challenges this reputation and argues that, whilst such a method (as with any other) can be abused, it has particular promise as a tool to be used for monitoring and explorative research, especially by smaller development organisations. Drawing on recent advances in adapting commercial ‘Big Data’ techniques f
This thesis aims to shed light on women’s intercourse pain by examining the conceptualization and discourse regarding such pain and how this in turn affects women’s suffering. Three different perspectives of intercourse pain, namely biomedical, biopsychosocial and the subjective experience of women were analyzed using Fairclough’s critical discourse analysis (CDA) and the three perspective’s disco
The purpose of the study has been to gain an understanding of how socio-cultural structures and gender norms affect young women’s leadership possibilities. This has been explored through a qualitative case study focusing on how young women leaders, working with sexual and reproductive health rights issues, experience and pursue leadership in Zimbabwe. A theoretical framework based on contextual an
Det svenska djurskyddet är ett förhållandevis litet rättsområde som därför sällan diskuteras i juridiska sammanhang. Jag upplever att det finns ett behov av att förankra djurskyddet i etiska utgångspunkter för att få en väl fungerande djurskyddslag. Det är anledningen till att jag i den här uppsatsen har valt att undersöka hur det svenska djurskyddet har motiverats i olika tidsskeden: då djurskydd
Regelbunden fysisk aktivitet och träning har enligt forskning visat sig ha hälsofrämjande effekter både för det fysiska och psykologiska välbefinnandet, där motivation och situationsbaserat självförtroende påvisades ha betydelse vid utförande samt bibehållande av träning. Studien syftade till att undersöka skillnader och samband mellan vuxna individers motivation och situationsbaserat självförtroe
Since there are no laws that controls how a societal risk analysis is to be made, or what acceptance criteria that should be used, people have different opinions regarding this. This contributes to non-homogenous risk management which in turn leads to a situation where the society’s safety isn’t the same in all of the country which the law says it should be. To get in terms with this problem there
Vulvar pain has been known of for thousands of years but the general knowledge of vulvar pain is limited and the condition receives less medical attention than other disorders. Previous research focus on physical and/or psychological causes, treatment strategies and problematizing female sexuality due to women’s inability to engage in sexual intercourse. This master thesis attempt to understand v

Problem: The case study company, BorgWarner, currently has no quantitative method for evaluating the risks connected to different inventory levels throughout their internal supply chain. Meanwhile there are internal goals for lowering the amount of capital tied in inventory. Purpose: The purpose of this thesis is to investigate how changes in the component and finished goods inventory levels affec
I Sverige väljer de flesta vårdnadshavarna att vaccinera sina barn enligt barnhälsovårdens vaccinationsprogram. Internationella studier visar att det till stor del beror på tillit till BHV-personalen. Syftet med studien var att beskriva vårdnadshavares motiv till att vaccinera sina barn sett ur BVC-sjuksköterskans perspektiv. Datainsamlingen var tre fokusgruppsintervjuer inkluderande nio BVC-sjuks
Today there are several public libraries in Sweden that are engaged in the campaign Digidel 2013, a campaign that aims to increase the digital participation among citizens. The democratic aspects of such activities are the focal point of this thesis. The purpose of this master’s thesis is to contribute to a better understanding of the public libraries exercise of their democratic and social func
The aim of this thesis is to set up a high-fidelity fluid structure interaction (FSI) simulation environment to study the gust load alleviation capability of camber-morphing airborne wind energy (AWE) wings. The simulation environment will enable studying the transient flow phenomena around the wing when encountering wind gusts and gives the possibility of investigating dynamic instabilities. To m
The urban landscape in South Africa is marred by informal settlements. Nearly a quarter of its population lives in shacks and do not have access to sufficient clean water and improved sanitation. The aim of the present study was to ascertain household daily water consumption and quantify the amount of greywater generated at Zandspruit slums. Another objective was to assess perceptions and user acc
The purpose of this master thesis project was to compare two pasteurizers (pasteurizer 31 and 52) at Österlenmejeriet AB (ÖMAB) in Lunnarp, which is a part of Danone, France and once the differences were clear the goal was to have them equalized in the aspect of heating effects/temperature treatments/heating load and processing parameters. The products that are mainly pasteurized on these pasteuri
