The Oxytocin Me! project has proven to be a response to the nowadays increasing focus on high technology. The topic I have chosen is both a health and social matter: stress. In this regard, I have developed a stress relieving product that should challenge people to use their body’s own natural resources. The result is an ergonomic hug cushion that should stimulate the body to produce oxytocin hor

This master thesis work concerns fault detection and isolation (FDI) of an electro-mechanical servo using analytical redundancy.

Both approaches emphasized

Background: Despite the promising evidence of health-promoting and preventive interventions for maintaining health among older people, not all interventions can be implemented due to limited resources. Due to the variation of content in the interventions and the breadth of outcomes used to evaluate effects in such interventions, comparisons are difficult and the choice of which interventions to im
Like other Western legal systems, the Swedish legal system constructs objectivity as an unemotional state of being. We argue that the enactment of objectivity in situ relies on objectivity work including emotion management and empathy. Building on qualitative interviews and observations in Swedish district courts, we analyse courtroom interaction through a dramaturgical lens, highlighting tacit siLike other Western legal systems, the Swedish legal system constructs objectivity as an unemotional state of being.
