Geovisualization tools are continuously becoming more complex. These tools can present vivid and highly accurate representations of the real world. Simultaneously, spatial data is becoming incredibly detailed and the possibilities of interacting with the geovisualization tools are plentiful. Geovisualization tools are indeed powerful. However, in contrast to the well-developed technological side o

Despite the positive effects of physical activity in both physical and mental health, the proportion of Swedes who have a poor physical health is increasing. The aim of this research was to create knowledge according to what affects a physically active behavior. We used the motivational theory health action process approach (HAPA) and the goal setting technique SMART to find out if any of their co
Den odränerade skjuvhållfastheten är en viktig geoteknisk parameter som man behöver ha en god uppfattning om i samband med byggnation på lerrika jordarter. Då flertalet av de vanligen tillämpade undersökningsmetoderna är väldigt tidskrävande och kostsamma, finns det ett stort intresse för att undersöka hur alternativa och samtidigt mer enkelt mätbara parametrar, så som flytindex (IL), förhåller siUndrained shear strength is a crucial parameter of the clay-rich sediments commonly used in the design process of geotechnical structures and is determined by several tests. As a considerable part of these tests are cost- and time consuming, it is of interest to investigate the potential relationship with shear strength (cu) with alternative, easily measurable parameters, such as liquidity index (
Purpose: To increase the understanding of storytelling in the realm of social entrepreneurship, and to highlight how storytelling is used in social entrepreneurial resource acquisition. Methodology: With an interpretivist and objectivist stance qualitative interview material has been collected from 9 respondents. Analysis and conclusions are based on an iterative interpretation of primary intervie
Natural events that happen more rarely have historically been more difficult to study and continue to require different methods. For example, rare occurrences of natural disasters and weather events can have return periods of thousands of years but because of their large impact are very important to study. In addition to being used to study the changing climate, climate models have the advantage o
Understanding the impact of various factors on train arrival delays is a prerequisite for effectiverailway traffic operating control and management. Existing studies analyze the train delayfactors using a single, generic regression equation, restricting their capability in accounting forheterogeneous impacts of spatiotemporal factors on arrival delays as the train travels along itsroute.

The extent to which increased liver fat content influences differences in circulating metabolites and/or lipids between low-birth-weight (LBW) individuals, at increased risk of type 2 diabetes (T2D), and normal-birth-weight (NBW) controls is unknown. The objective of the study was to perform untargeted serum metabolomics and lipidomics analyses in 26 healthy, non-obese early-middle-aged LBW men, i
Background:The research of social science tends in many cases lean towards an approach that focus on negatively influencing factors, rather than health promoting factors from a salutogenic perspective. In the field of criminology, this approach commonly investigates reasons behind criminal behavior instead of studying the salutogenic factors, i.e. reasons why people do not engage in a criminal lif
Today densification of existing urban fabric is the main strategy for how to sustainably meet the needs of a growing population. But what does this development mean for ecological values inside of the city? Historically, we have thought of cities and the human kind as apart from nature, as a defense from wilderness and natural forces. Today we can no longer think only of ourselves as vulnerable to
Title: The Magic to Change Cinderella´s Glass Slipper: A qualitative study on breaking the norm preserving gender in the construction industry Authors: Erika Gräns & Wiebke Müller Supervisor: Sverre Spoelstra Submission Date: 20th of May 2016 Keywords: Gender Inequalities, Norm, Horizontal Segregation, Glass Ceiling, Glass Slipper, Ideal Worker, Occupational Identity Purpose: The purpose
As the market share of electric vehicles increases, the need for a charging infrastructure increases correspondingly. Modern Electric Road Systems is a cost effective charging infrastructure that allows electric vehicles to charge while driving and consequently allowing for smaller batteries in EVs. To assess the potential of electric road system technology, a demonstrator of conductive electric r
Apolipoprotein A-I (ApoA-I) amyloidosis is a rare protein misfolding disease where fibrils of the N-terminal domain of the protein accumulate in several organs, leading to their failure. Although ApoA-I amyloidosis is systemic, the different amyloidogenic variants show a preferential tissue accumulation that appears to correlate with the location of the mutation in the protein sequence and with th
