During the summer of 2013, A-hus will deliver housing in four floors to Derome Mark & Bostad exploiting land in Svedala. One of the technical challenges in these houses is to design the connection between the two outer wall elements and the floor structure. The current proposal is to connect the three elements using a 400 mm long screw that is toe-screwed through all three elements. This metho

The goal of the project is to identify and analyze different solution methods and to see how they should be applied to an industrial problem. The problem that will be examined is assembly of screws in a disc. The solution uses a Pacdrive system which is used to control and synchronize the servo motor. The operation of the motors will be done with an electronic cam that is completely virtual. In th

Cardiovascular diseases are accountable for almost 50 % of the mortality number in Europe which is why research on its causes is highly prioritised. For practical and ethical reasons, in vitro study models are of high importance to enable research on cardiac abnormal behaviours. To meet this issue, researchers from Imec, Belgium, developed Neuray-II, the second generation of a biocompatible chip w

Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning Det finns två huvudsakliga typer av diabetes, typ 1 (T1D) och typ 2 (T2D), samt flertalet mindre vanliga former av diabetes t.ex. MODY. I bukspottkörtelns β-celler produceras insulin, vilket är det mest centrala hormonet i regleringen av blodsockret som verkar genom att öka cellernas upptag av socker från blodet. T2D, tidigare kallad åldersdiabetes, beror till sABSTRACT The prevalence of diabetes keeps increasing around the world, of which type 2 diabetes (T2D) accounts for 90%. Both lifestyle and genetic factors contribute to pathogenesis of the disease. A significant proportion of the basic research on T2D focuses on the genetic components and susceptibility genes especially on the insulin secretion. Herein, we functionally examined 4 T2D candidate ge

En ökande trend av tvärvetenskapliga forskningsprojekt har gett upphov till en uppsjö litteratur i ämnet. Denna försöker på olika vis belysa problem som kan uppstå vi denna typ av samarbeten och ger mer eller mindre handfasta förslag på hur dessa på ett effektivt vis kan överbryggas och medvetandegöras. Förvånansvärt lite utrymme lämnas åt fördelarna med tvärvetenskapligt arbete. Vad är det som dr

Abstract Failures in achieving the 2010 goals of slowing down or halting the loss of biodiversity, and the setting of new biodiversity targets set for 2020, stress an urgent need to expand current reserve networks and to improve their effectiveness in protecting species and habitats. Habitat suitability models, and derived maps from them, are among the broadest used tools for identifying the ecol

Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning Strukturbioinformatik och datorgrafik Proteiner bygger upp våra muskler, hud, hår m.m. och fungerar som katalysatorer (enzymer) för reaktioner som behövs för livet. Våra gener kodar för proteiner som utför funktioner i kroppen. Bioinformatik handlar om att studera det genetiska materialet hos människor och andra organismer. Strukturbioinformatik riktar in sig Abstract This Master Thesis explores a variety of approaches to protein structure comparision : CLICK, BetaSuperPoser, MAMMOTH, Minkowski Sum Boundary Calculation, 3DSurfer / Zernike Descriptors, Spherical Harmonics, D2 Shape (distance histogram) and ProBiS. The methods are categorized according to how they function and the meaning of their output parameters, in particular RMSD, is discussed. We

The purpose of this work is to give an insight into how vocal students describe their desire to sing and practice singing, and to find out what the students get feedback from their surroundings in voice and in practice and how feedback affects them. The study would thus create an understanding of what motivates students to sing and practice singing. The study is based on qualitative interviews wit

Creating a musical – Participants’ experiences of the Lovewell Institute’s creative process This study utilizes qualitative research methods in order to explore the experiences of students who participated in Lovewell Institute’s creative musical theatre workshop in Oskarshamn, Sweden 2012.

The study is based on semi-structured interviews with two music teachers, one at the elementary and high school Sankt Annæ Gymnasium (Copenhagen) and one at the elementary and high school Adolf Fredriks musikklasser (Stockholm). By asking more or less identical questions to both of them I could clearly see the differences between the two schools. At Sankt Annæ boys and girls have separate teaching
