2. 1. On the treatment of tibial shaft fractures

   Author : Abbas Karladani; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Cast; Distraction; Dynamometry; Fracture; Limb lengthening; Nailing; Outcome; Psychometry; Shaft; Soft tissue; Tibial;

   Abstract : The aim of this thesis was to evaluate those factors, which have predictive value for development of complications after tibial shaft fractures, and to evaluate the outcome of the available treatment methods for closed, as well as open tibial shaft fractures associated with extensive soft-tissue injury. To determine the factors, which influence healing speed, we reviewed 100 consecutive patients with 104 tibial shaft fractures tibial shaft fractures. READ MORE

4. 2. Tibial shaft fractures : An epidemiological and clinical study

   Author : Abbas Emami; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Surgery; Tibial fractures; epidemiology; external fixation; infected nonunions; ultrasoundstimulation; serum bone markers; Kirurgi; Surgery; Kirurgi; Orthopaedics; ortopedi;

   Abstract : The epidemiological features of tibial shaft fractures were studied in Uppsala during two 5-year periods. The incidence decreased in men below 20 years of age in the late 1980's compared with the early 1970's (mostly due to a reduction of fractures sustained in traffic accidents), while the incidence increased in women over 80.

5. 3. Humeral shaft fractures : epidemiology outcome

   Author : Radford Ekholm; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Humeral shaft fractures account for 1-3% of all fractures and approximately 20% of all humeral fractures. Non-operative treatment with functional bracing has been regarded as the golden standard for treatment of closed humeral shaft fractures with studies reporting a high overall healing rate and an acceptable functional outcome.

6. 4. On Contact Mechanisms and Mechanical Transmission Performance

   Author : Lars Maclennan; Maskinelement; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; vacuum technology; vibration and acoustic engineering; Maskinteknik; hydraulik; vakuumteknik; vibrationer; akustik; hydraulics; Mechanical engineering; artificial neural network; experimental study; disc brake; dynamic analysis; shaft; Spur gear;

   Abstract : This thesis consists of four papers, which treat the modelling of a spur gear set and a disc brake, and the interaction between the machine elements. Features of the performance are studied in relation to the initial stated assumptions. READ MORE

7. 5. Polygonal columns in Greek architecture

   Author : Therese Emanuelsson-Paulson; Arja Karivieri; Lena Sjögren; Henrik Gerding; Stockholms universitet; []
   Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Column; Shaft; Capital; Base; Doric; Polygonal; Facet; Octagonal; Flute; Greek architecture; Classical archeology; Classical architecture; Geometric; Archaic; Classical; Hellenistic; Greece; Albania; Turkey; Cyprus; arkeologi med inriktning mot antikens kultur och samhällsliv; Archaeology and Classical Studies;

   Abstract : This thesis studies the use of polygonal columns in Greek architecture from the Geometric to the Hellenistic period. The main purpose of the research is to study the development, distribution, design, function and use of polygonal columns in order to create a new understanding on how they fit in the development of Greek architecture.
