  1. 16. Catching the Bus in Old Age - Methodological Aspects of Accessibility Assessments in Public Transport

    Author : Gunilla Carlsson; Hållbar vardag och hälsa i ett livsperspektiv; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Rehabilitering medicinsk och social ; revalidation; rehabilitation; kinesitherapy; cluster analysis; activity; functional limitation; crticial incident; Enabler; environment; elderly; focus group; model; occupational therapy; participant observation; planning; performance; travel; Physical medicine; Road transport technology; Vägtransportteknik;

    Abstract : Engagement in daily activities is central for people’s health and well-being. Today, our activity arenas mostly cover great geographical areas, and to reach different activities we must travel. However, people with functional limitations are sometimes restricted in their travelling. READ MORE

  2. 17. Knee function, Physical Activity and Perceived Health after Meniscectomy in the Middle-aged

    Author : Ylva Ericsson; Enheten för led- och mjukvävnadsforskning; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; physical activity; dGEMRIC; self efficacy of knee function; functional performance; muscle strength; meniscectomy; middle-aged; health-related quality of life; BMI; functional exercise;

    Abstract : The aim of this thesis was to explore the impact of meniscal injury and meniscectomy on joint and muscle function, physical activity and perceived health in middle-age subjects and to evaluate the effect of a functional exercise program. Male and female post meniscectomy patients participated in Studies I-IV (n=45 in Studies I-III, n=99 in Study IV) and Study IV also included 94 controls. READ MORE

  3. 18. Methods for Characterisation of Pressing Die Surfaces

    Author : Johan C Berglund; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; finish milling; scale-sensitive fractal analysis; surface characterisation; polishing; functional correlation; : pressing dies; functional filtration; surface roughness; functional surface;

    Abstract : Design and manufacture of dies and moulds is a critical aspect of many production systems since the manufacturing and try-out of new dies and moulds often is essential in determining the lead-time and quality of a new production system. In the automotive industry, many new car models are introduced each year and for each of these models, a new set of pressing dies has to be designed and manufactured. READ MORE

  4. 19. Functional EDSLs for Web Applications

    Author : Anton Ekblad; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; functional programming; domain-specific programming languages; distributed systems; web applications; tierless programming languages;

    Abstract : This thesis aims to make the development of complex web applications easier, faster and safer through the application of strongly typed functional programming techniques. Traditional web applications are commonly written in the de facto standard language of the web, JavaScript, which, being untyped, provides no guarantees regarding the data processed by programs, increasing the burden of testing and defensive programming.

  5. 20. A Functional Language-Based Approach to Low-Level Hardware Design

    Author : Emil Axelsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; non-functional properties; design exploration; interconnect; functional programming; wire-aware circuit generators; electronic design automation EDA ;

    Abstract : The semiconductor industry is facing increasing problems with designing complex circuits with tight constraints on area, performance and power consumption. Worse still, these circuits must be designed and verified very quickly. READ MORE
