  2. 6. Undrained shear strength in clay slopes - Influence of stress conditions. A model and field test study

    Author : Hjördis Löfroth; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; preconsolidation pressure; piezocone test; slope; model test; consolidation; horizontal stress; clay; undrained shear strength; direct simple shear test; field vane test; field test;

    Abstract : To counteract natural hazards such as landslides, current methods for evaluation of soil properties as a mean for determining the safety level of natural slopes need to be refined. The empirical relationships used for estimation of the undrained shear strength from piezocone and field vane test are based on the stress conditions valid for horizontal ground and normally consolidated or slightly overconsolidated soil.

  4. 7. The Optimal trigger speed of vehicle activated signs

    Author : Diala Jomaa; Högskolan Dalarna; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; optimal trigger speed; vehicle activated sign; vehicle mean speed; standard deviation; calibration; Doppler radar; driver behaviour; data analysis; Complex Systems – Microdata Analysis; Komplexa system - mikrodataanalys;

    Abstract : The thesis aims to elaborate on the optimum trigger speed for Vehicle Activated Signs (VAS) and to study the effectiveness of VAS trigger speed on drivers’ behaviour. Vehicle activated signs (VAS) are speed warning signs that are activated by individual vehicle when the driver exceeds a speed threshold. READ MORE

  5. 8. Non-Linear Canonical Methods in Strongly Correlated Electron Systems

    Author : Matteo Bazzanella; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Majorana fermions; Emergent Majorana fermions; Non-linear transformation; canonical transformation; Kondo lattice; Mott insulator; Mean-field; Path-integral;

    Abstract : In this thesis some new ideas to perform the analysis of Strongly Correlated Electronic Systems (SCES) are developed. In particular the use of non-linear canonical transformations is considered thoroughly. READ MORE

  6. 9. Registered nurses' research use : A national survey on extent, patterns, intentions and associated factors in undergraduate education and the first years of clinical practice

    Author : Henrietta Forsman; Högskolan Dalarna; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : cluster analysis; evidence-based practice; intention; logistic regression; mediation analysis; nursing students; registered nurses; research use; questionnaire; Hälsa och välfärd; Health and Welfare; cluster analysis;

    Abstract : The gap between research and practice is well-known and has been addressed globally.The application of research-based knowledge in clinical practice has the potential to improve care quality and patient safety. READ MORE

  7. 10. Vibration mitigation of high-speed railway bridges : Application of damping devices in theory and practice

    Author : Sarah Tell; Raid Karoumi; Andreas Andersson; Ülker-Kaustell Mahir; José Maria Goicolea; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; vibration mitigation; high-speed railway bridges; damping devices; retrofit; numerical analysis; hybrid simulation; field experiment; vibrationsdämpning; järnvägsbroar för höghastighetståg; dämpare; eftermonteringsmetod; numerisk analys; hybridsimulering; fältförsök; Structural Engineering and Bridges; Bro- och stålbyggnad;

    Abstract : The dynamic response of railway bridges is an important aspect to consider, as the repetitive loading from passing trains may result in excessive vibrations of the bridge deck. Several design criteria are developed in order to assure the structural safety and passenger comfort during train crossings of a bridge. READ MORE
