Observation methods and imaging techniques - assessments of physical exposure in repetitive work with focus on neck and upper extremities The aim of this thesis was to develop, establish and validate observation methods for exposure assessments in epidemiological studies of repetitive work. A second aim was to increase the quality of input data for biomechanical shoulder models, by reliability an
”Alltså säg inte mötesplats! Och möjlighet! Alltså dom här M-orden har jag egentligen lite svårt för liksom. Och mångkultur!”Tjänstemannen blir plötsligt irriterad. Hon brinner för mångfald i kulturlivet, men retoriken, orden och jargongen gör henne frustrerad. Den här avhandlingen handlar till stor del om dessa ord och hur personer som arbetar med teater och integration förhåller sig till dem. TeThe purpose of this thesis is to investigate the notion of multiculturalism in relation to theatre and drama. In Swedish public discourse, culture and the arts are frequently referred to as a social glue which keeps society together. In this context theatre holds a particular position. On the one hand theatre is looked upon as a magic key capable of opening up all sorts of discriminatory structure
We investigate a new method to place patients into risk groups in censored survival data. Properties such as median survival time, and end survival rate, are implicitly improved by optimizing the area under the survival curve. Artificial neural networks (ANN) are trained to either maximize or minimize this area using a genetic algorithm, and combined into an ensemble to predict one of low, interme
This paper describes the potential help that the interactive desktop concept can bring to the execution of embodiment design tasks. The presented project is still in its infancy. The research framework is the following: once a product concept has been approved, the mechanical design engineer develops the product architecture and product part (also called embodiment design). Sketches at that level
Under och efter katastrofer och nödsituationer samlas många olika organisationer för att hjälpa de drabbade. Det kan vara t.ex. polis, brandkår, sjukvård, eller elbolag som måste reparera ledningsnät. Vid större katastrofer kan myndigheter och internationella hjälporganisationer också behöva komma till undsättning. För att dessa organisationer ska kunna hjälpa till på ett effektivt sätt måste de hThis Master degree project identified disasters and emergencies as a global humanitarian and technological challenge. Emergency management organizations' need for access to accurate and up-to-date information about the emergency situation, to help respond to, recover from and mitigate the effects of disasters and emergencies, presents a challenge to the field of Geomatics. Today the use of re
BACKGROUND: Falls are common among older people with intellectual disability (ID) and are also a major contributor to injuries in this population. Yet, fall characteristics have only been sparsely studied, and the results are inconsistent. The aim of the present study was to investigate type of falls, places where they occurred and activities that caused them, as well as health outcomes and health
Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: Det var torkan under åren 1968 - 1973 som fokuserade världens uppmärksamhet till Sahelregionen, som är ett smalt bälte mellan Saharaöknen i norra Afrika och grässlätterna söder därom. De ovanligt torra åren hade lett till matbrist i form av förstörda skördar och annan vegetation, samt boskapsdöd. Året 1973 nådde torkan sitt klimax i Sahelområdet, vilket fick tilDrought is primarily caused by reduced precipitation and is dependent on physical factors such as climate, geology, freshwater and vegetationcover, as well as the political, economical and social situation. Drought in the Sahel region during the last decades and the scale of the human tragedy that followed have underlined the need for system to monitor crop and vegetation conditions. The object of
Denna artikel undersöker hur innebörden av ekonomisk ersättning kan omdefinieras över tid i svenska familjehemsföräldrars liv. Med utgångspunkt i fyrtio kvalitativa intervjuer visar jag att familjehemsföräldrar initialt kan tona ned eller bortse från de ekonomiska aspekterna av uppdraget, men senare komma att vara beroende av denna inkomst – inte nödvändigtvis av egenintresse, utan som ett sätt atThis article examines how the meaning of financial compensation may be redefined over time in the lives of Swedish foster parents. Drawing on forty qualitative interviews, I demonstrate that while foster parents may initially downplay or disregard the monetary aspects of fostering, they can later come to depend on this income, not necessarily out of self-interest, but as a means of deepening their
The writings of the Austrian novelist and essayist Robert Musil provide sociology with vital problems and reflections. Indeed, Musil, not least in the novel The Man without qualities, introduces discussions that extend conventional and recurrent understanding of modernity – sociology’s general object of analysis.

Based on data obtained with the Eurogam spectrometer, a systematic investigation of superdeformed bands built on single neutron excitations across the N = 86 shell gap has been carried out for gadolinium, terbium, and dysprosium isotopes with 85 ≤ N ≤ 87. In each nucleus, pairs of bands corresponding to degenerate signature partners have been observed. The effective alignment is constant and close
Background Anorexia nervosa is associated with high personal and financial costs for sufferers, carers and society in general, but little is known about the long-term health economic burden. Aims To examine healthcare utilisation, social assistance, sick leave and disability pension in individuals with anorexia nervosa over a period of 30 years. Method Fifty-one individuals with adolescent-onset a
Förökning – elevuppgift Du ska med hjälp av olika växtarter, både inne i det tropiska växthuset och ute i trädgården få lära dig mer om reproduktion hos växter, dvs helt enkelt hur växter förökar sig och olika fantastiska strategier som de använder för detta. Riskbedömning: Övningarna är riskfria, men du får inte plocka blad, blommor eller ta delar från växterna. Om du har pollenallergier, var upp

Beyond CP Snow 2 Beyond CP S now Many of the challenges we face in the 21st century deal with issues that demand a deepened understanding of the interplay between the biophysical world, humans, society and technology. Research and education stand upon a founding structure with rather distinct borders between the different traditions. As a result, the methods, theories, models, concepts and thought

Fully implicit Runge-Kutta methods play an important role in the numerical integration of stiff differential equations. Radau IIA is the most commonly used fully implicit method due to its good theoretical performance. However, Radau IA and Lobatto IIIC might also be suitable for different problems. These three methods are constructed using simplified order conditions that ensures specific integra
Jag vill diskutera det som den amerikanska pedagogen Adrianna Kezar i en artikel från 2007 kallar campus ethos, där siktet är inställt på att skapa samhörighet mellan enskilda studenter och en institution, fånga upp deras engagemang och att få studenterna att känna sig välkomna och trygga i en ny gemenskap och bli framgångsrika i sina studier. Hon skriver: ”An ethos may be thought of as a life-giv
