  1. 1. Dressing Up and the Art of Jamaica Kincaid

    Author : Anna Borgström; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Jamaica Kincaid; Art; Autobiography; Resistance to Categorization; Dressing Up; Cognizant Readings; Intertexts; Paratexts; English; Engelska;

    Abstract : Whether her work is classified as fiction, biography, garden writing, or sketch, almost all ofJamaica Kincaid’s writing invokes the genre of autobiography. At the same time, she undercutsand complicates autobiographical readings of her work. READ MORE

  2. 2. Micro-grinding of titanium

    Author : Mohammadali Kadivar; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; dressing; grinding; tool topography.; modelling; Micro machining;

    Abstract : Titanium and its alloys are difficult-to-cut materials, commonly used in several application fields, such as: medicine, aerospace, automotive and turbine manufacturing due to their biocompatibility, corrosion resistance, excellent mechanical and thermal properties, and light weight. However, its machining is associated with several difficulties, such as high tool wear, low surface quality, high cutting forces and high costs. READ MORE

  3. 3. Nonlinear Theory of Partially Coherent Optical Waves

    Author : Tobias Hansson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Nonlinear optics; partial coherence; beam collapse; saturable logarithmic media; soliton interaction; dressing method; parabolic beams; Wigner transform; invariants; modulational instability;

    Abstract : Nonlinear effects arise in optics as a consequence of the medium properties being modified by the presence of light. Of particular interest are situations where the effect of the nonlinearity can be described by an intensity dependent refractive index and the subsequent interplay with dispersion and diffraction.

  4. 4. Fatigue life extension in existing steel bridges. High-Frequency Mechanical Impact treatment and Tungsten Inert Gas remelting in life extension and fatigue crack repair of welded steel structures

    Author : Hassan al-Karawi; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; HFMI; TIG-dressing; Life extension; Post weld treatment; Gain factor; Linear elastic fracture mechanics; Crack retrofiting; Peening; fatigue crack; Crack detection; Microhardness; Concentration factor; LEFM; TIG-remelting; Strain gauge;

    Abstract : This thesis investigates the performance of improved welds with two post-weld treatment methods for application on existing structures. High-Frequency Mechanical Impact (HFMI) treatment and Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG) remelting were used for fatigue life extension of welded structures. READ MORE

  5. 5. Elderly patients with slow-healing leg ulcers : an embodied suffering

    Author : Britt Ebbeskog; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Communion; dressing change; elderly care; embodiment; intervention; lived experiences; phenomenological-hermeneutic; prevalence; nursing care; slow-healing wound; suffering and venous leg ulcer.;

    Abstract : The overall aim of this thesis was to investigate leg and foot ulcer patients, from the perspective of a population in a specific urban area, and to illuminate these individual patients' lived experience of living with slow-healing venous leg ulcers. Study (I) was a survey of chronic leg and foot ulcers and study (II) was a follow-up study of the wound healing rate and an intervention study. READ MORE
