  1. 1. Communication in the context of acute pain : Persuasion or validation?

    Author : Johan Carstens Söderstrand; Steven Linton; Katja Boersma; Tamar Pincus; Örebro universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Acute pain; communication; validation; reassurance; expectations for recovery; catastrophizing; recall; misdirected problem solving; psycho-logical flexibility;

    Abstract : Historically, the dominating theoretical framework for communication in the context of acute pain is reassurance. An inherent assumption of this framework is that the person in pain needs to have their fears and doubts removed and be educated, or persuaded, that the pain problem is not dan-gerous. READ MORE

  2. 2. Prediction of Energy Use of a Swedish Secondary School Building : Building Energy Simulation, Validation, Occupancy Behaviour and Potential Energy-Efficiency Measures

    Author : Jessika Steen Englund; Bahram Moshfegh; Mathias Cehlin; Jan Akander; Tomas Persson; Högskolan i Gävle; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; building energy simulation; school building; field measurements; energy use; heat power demand; validation; occupancy behaviour; airing; energy-efficiency measures; byggnadssimulering; skolbyggnad; fältmätningar; energianvändning; värmeeffektbehov; validering; brukarbeteende; vädring; energieffektiviseringsåtgärder; Hållbar stadsutveckling; Sustainable Urban Development;

    Abstract : Residential and public buildings account for about 40% of the annual energy use in Europe. Many buildings are in urgent need of renovation, and reductions in energy demand in the built environment are of high importance in both Europe and Sweden. Building energy simulation (BES) tools are often used to predict building performance. READ MORE

  3. 3. On the dynamics of self-esteem : Empirical validation of Basic self-esteem and Earning self-esteem

    Author : Maarit Johnson; Liisa Keltikangas-Järvinen; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Self-esteem; competence; validation; stability; adjustment; health; Psychology; Psykologi;

    Abstract : The present thesis aims at distinguishing between self-esteem as basic self-love (basic self-esteem) and self-esteem as related to competence (earning self-esteem). In previous research these two phenomena have most often been studied under one and the same self-esteem concept. READ MORE

  4. 4. On Statistical Methods for Safety Validation of Automated Vehicles

    Author : Daniel Åsljung; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; performance evaluation; extreme value theory; Automotive; validation; automated vehicles; simulation; verification; automated driving systems;

    Abstract : Automated vehicles (AVs) are expected to bring safer and more convenient transport in the future. Consequently, before introducing AVs at scale to the general public, the required levels of safety should be shown with evidence. However, statistical evidence generated by brute force testing using safety drivers in real traffic does not scale well. READ MORE

  5. 5. On Standardized Model Integration : Automated Validation in Aircraft System Simulation

    Author : Robert Hällqvist; Petter Krus; Magnus Eek; Robert Braun; Henrik Tidefelt; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : Designing modern aircraft is not an easy task. Today, it is not enough to optimize aircraft sub-systems at a sub-system level. Instead, a holistic approach is taken whereby the constituent sub-systems need to be designed for the best joint performance. READ MORE
