  1. 1. Sensorimotor control and cervical range of motion in women with chronic neck pain : Kinematic assessments and effects of neck coordination exercise

    Author : Thomas Rudolfsson; Mats Djupsjöbacka; Martin Björklund; Charlotte Häger; Dario Liebermann; Anneli Peolsson; Högskolan i Gävle; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Neck pain; Rehabilitation; Coordination training; Resistance training; Postural balance; randomized controlled trial; Musculoskeletal pain; Biomechanics; Range of motion; Kinematics; Head Movements;

    Abstract : Introduction: Neck pain is a common problem in society and is more prevalent among women. The consequences of neck pain for the individual often include activity and participation limitations, thus affecting many dimensions of life. READ MORE

  2. 2. On Robot Feedback from Range Sensors : Reliable Control by Active Reduction of Uncertainty and Ambiguities

    Author : Jonas Nygårds; John Hallam; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; robot gripping and docking; LQG-feedback; posture estimation; Gaussian sum; optronic sensing; sheet of light range camera; time-of-flight laser; specular reflection s; multiple scattering; range ghosts ; active reduction of ambiguities; reliability; uncertainty; tolerances;

    Abstract : This thesis is on modelling and experimental tests when non contact sensing isused for feedback control in robotics. The motion of the robot is to be controlled relative to objects in the surrounding workspace during operations like gripping/docking, surface following, shape measuring etc. READ MORE

  3. 3. Ruin probabilities and first passage times for self-similar processes

    Author : Zbigniew Michna; Matematisk statistik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Simulation of Ruin Probability; Monte Carlo Method; Skorokhod Topology; Weak Convergence; Rice s Formula; Fluid Model; Risk Model; Scaled Brownian Motion; Long Range Dependence; Fractional Brownian Motion; Renewal Process; Levy Motion; Stable Process; Self-Similar Process; Gaussian Process; Ruin Probability; First Passage Time; Exponential Bound; Picands Constant.; Mathematics; Matematik;

    Abstract : This thesis investigates ruin probabilities and first passage times for self-similar processes. We propose self-similar processes as a risk model with claims appearing in good and bad periods. Then, in particular, we get the fractional Brownian motion with drift as a limit risk process.

  4. 4. Moving Images of Literature : Transformations of Literature in Contemporary Video and Film Installation Art

    Author : Tanja von Dahlern; Johan Prof.; Paula Docent; Jesper Olsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Transformation; Adaptation; Intermediality; Cultural Memory; Video and Film Installation; Literature; Litteraturvetenskap;

    Abstract : This study aims to contribute to a better understanding of the many engagements with literature beyond the literary field. More specifically, it studies different ways of staging and transforming literature in video and film installation since the 1990s. READ MORE

  5. 5. Patterns of recollection : the documentary meets digital media

    Author : Åke Walldius; Stephen Mamber; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Documentary films; Dokumentärfilm; Digitalteknik; Digitala medier och film; Cinema Studies; filmvetenskap;

    Abstract : The aim of this study is to propose a conceptual framework for the analysis of historical programming in digital media. Radical breakthroughs in the technologies for registration and dissemination of moving images have created a need for common vocabularies that can be shared by media practitioners, researchers from different fields of inquiry, and end-users of documentary accounts.
