  1. 1. Compartment Fire Temperature Calculations and Measurements

    Author : Alexandra Byström; Ulf Wickström; Sven Thelandersson; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; compartment fire temperature; heat transfer; FEM; calculation of temperature; temperature measurement; fire scenario; validation; flashover; Stålbyggnad; Steel Structures;

    Abstract : This thesis is devoted to heat transfer and fire dynamics in enclosures. It consists of a main part which summarizes and discusses the theory of heat transfer, conservation of energy, fire dynamics and specific fire scenarios that have been studied. READ MORE

  2. 2. lntramuscular pressure in the lower leg - Studies on chronic exertional compartment syndrome and effects of external compression

    Author : Sophia Lindorsson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; intramuscular pressure; external compression; compartment syndrome; chronic exertional compartment syndrome; fasciotomy;

    Abstract : This thesis on intramuscular pressure (IMP) in the lower leg is concerned with two topics. The first of these is external compression; more specifically, the effect of compression stockings (CS). There are conflicting data on how compression garments such as CS affect IMP and muscle function during activity. READ MORE

  3. 3. Fire Dynamics in Multi-Room Compartment Fires

    Author : Nils Johansson; Avdelningen för Brandteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Fire safety engineering; fire dynamics; multi-room compartment; numerical experiment; small-scale experiment; hot-gas-layer temperature; hot-gas-layer interface height; reproducibility;

    Abstract : Fire dynamics in multi-room compartments are explored in this thesis and new methods to study conditions in rooms adjacent to the room of fire origin are presented. Simple and transparent engineering methods can create good possibilities for understanding different complex phenomena present in fire science. READ MORE

  4. 4. Chronic exertional compartment syndrome of the lower leg : a novel diagnosis in diabetes mellitus: a clinical and morphological study of diabetic and non-diabetic patients

    Author : David Edmundsson; Göran Toolanen; Per Stål; Jorma Styf; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Chronic compartment syndrome; diabetes mellitus; Orthopaedics; Ortopedi; Orthopaedics; ortopedi;

    Abstract : Chronic exertional compartment syndrome (CECS) of the lower leg, defined as a condition with exercise-induced pain due to increased intramuscular pressure (IMP), has previously mainly been described in running athletes, and etiologic factors are poorly described. CECS has not been reported to occur together with other diseases and information about consequences on muscles morphology after treatment with fasciotomy is largely unknown. READ MORE

  5. 5. Ageing-associated changes of lysosomal compartment : implications on cellular functions

    Author : Yuri Stroikin; Ulf Brunk; Alexei Terman; Karin Öllinger; Suresh Rattan; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; Ageing; Apoptosis; Biological gabarge; Hormesis; Lipofuscin; Lysosome; Pathology; Patologi;

    Abstract : The lysosomal compartment is a major site for intracellular degradation. Lysosomal degradation of the cell’s own constituents, so-called autophagy, not only provides a cell with nutrients, but also removes damaged and potentially dangerous endogenous structures, thus securing intracellular homeostasis.
