2. 1. Effects of repetitive work on proprioception and of stretching on sensory mechanisms : implications for work-related neuromuscular disorders

   Author : Martin Björklund; Håkan Johansson; Albert Crenshaw; Ronny Lorentzon; Måns Magnusson; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Medicine; Repetitive motions; Muscle fatigue; Proprioception; Muscle stretching; Work-related musculoskeletal disorders; Nociception; Ergonomics; Medicin; Dermatology and venerology; clinical genetics; internal medicine; Dermatologi och venerologi; klinisk genetik; invärtesmedicin; medicin; Medicine;

   Abstract : The aims of the thesis were (i) to investigate the impact of repetitive low-intensity work exposure on proprioception and (ii) to examine effects of muscle stretching (especially sensory effects and effects on muscle nociception) and to relate its application to the prevention, alleviation and/or treatment of work-related neuromuscular disorders. The effects of low-intensity repetitive work on the shoulder proprioception were tested in healthy subjects. READ MORE

4. 2. Churning losses and efficiency in gearboxes

   Author : Martin Andersson; Ulf Olofsson; Stefan Björklund; Ulf Sellgren; Bo Alfredsson; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; gears; efficiency; temperature; running-in; assembly; torque loss; surface roughness;

   Abstract : Efficient transmissions systems are key to producing competitive motor vehicles that have a smaller environmental impact. Gears are the main components in vehicle transmissions and although they are already highly efficient, there is still room for improvement. READ MORE

5. 3. Complexities of Order-Related Formal Language Extensions

   Author : Martin Berglund; Frank Drewes; Henrik Björklund; Markus Holzer; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; complexity; automata; languages; order; shuffle; regular expressions; context-free; mildly context-sensitive; parsing; membership; algorithm analysis; Computer Science; datalogi;

   Abstract : The work presented in this thesis discusses various formal language formalisms that extend classical formalisms like regular expressions and context-free grammars with additional abilities, most relating to order. This is done while focusing on the impact these extensions have on the efficiency of parsing the languages generated. READ MORE

6. 4. Beyond Moral Teaching : Financial Literacy as Citizenship Education

   Author : Mattias Björklund; Niklas Jakobsson; Martin Kristiansson; Johan Sandahl; Jan Löfström; Karlstads universitet; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; financial literacy; social studies; upper secondary school; citizenship education; teaching; learning; pedagogical work; subject-matter didaktik; PCK; threshold concepts; variation theory; Beutelsbach consensus; powerful knowledge; second order concepts; Pedagogiskt arbete; Educational Work;

   Abstract : This thesis explores what financial literacy is, what financial literacy becomes and what financial literacy could become within the context of a citizenship education such as the Swedish upper secondary subject of social studies.  Financial literacy does not intuitively converge with social sciences which leaves social studies teachers to both teach and realise financial literacy.
