2. 1. Timber Pile-Supported Embankments : Arching and Reinforcement

   Author : Per Gunnvard; Jan Laue; Hans Mattsson; Qi Jia; Luc Thorel; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; timber piles; piled embankment; geosynthetic reinforcement; geosynthetic-reinforced pile-supported embankment; arching; finite element method; full-scale test; Geoteknik; Soil Mechanics;

   Abstract : Reduced climate impact is a worldwide strive today. The foundation engineering industry is continuously searching for more sustainable solutions to reduce resource usage and pollutions directly or indirectly. One such solution is timber piling, as an alternative to the commonly used concrete and steel piles. READ MORE

4. 2. Prediction and experimental validation of dynamic soil-structure interaction of an end-bearing pile foundation in soft clay

   Author : Freddie Theland; Jean-Marc Battini; Amir Kaynia; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Dynamic soil-structure interaction; Pile group; End-bearing piles; Dynamic impedance; Environmental vibration; Experimental validation; Dynamisk jord-struktur-interaktion; Pålgrupp; Spetsbärande pålar; Dynamisk impedans; Omgivningsvibrationer; Experimentell validering; Structural Engineering and Bridges; Bro- och stålbyggnad;

   Abstract : In the built environment, human activities such as railway and road traffic, constructionworks or industrial manufacturing can give rise to ground borne vibrations. Such vibrations become a concern in urban areas as they can cause human discomfort or disruption of vibration sensitive equipment in buildings. READ MORE

   Abstract : The title of this thesis refers to the three parts of which it is composed.The first part concerns the Ekedahl Invariants, new geometric invariants for finite groups introduced in 2009 by Torsten Ekedahl. READ MORE

6. 4. Early Prevention of Non-specific Neck, Shoulder and Back Disorders in Home-care Personnel. Assessments, Predictors of Sick Leave and Intervention

   Author : Eva Horneij; Människan i rörelse: hälsa och rehabilitering; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Physical medicine; risk; prospective; working population; stress management; physical training; physical performance; clinical tests; nursing; repeatability; reliability; kinesitherapy; revalidation; rehabilitation; Rehabilitering medicinsk och social ;

   Abstract : The overall aim of this thesis was to gain further knowledge of the assessments, predictors of future sick leave and intervention with regard to early prevention of neck, shoulder and back disorders in nursing aides/assistant nurses working in the home-care service. In Paper I, 15 clinical tests on impairment level related to the low back, were examined for intra- and inter-rater reliability on 18 and 44 subjects, respectively (Step 1). READ MORE

7. 5. MAX phase thin films : unique multifunctional ceramics with the elements Ti, Si, Ge, Sn, and C

   Author : Jens Emmerlich; Wolfhard Möller; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Thin solid films; Single-crystal; Physics; Fysik;

   Abstract : Mn+1AXn phases are ternary carbides or nitrides (X) consisting of an early transition metal (M), and (A)- group element (group III-V). They combine ceramic and metallic properties with high oxidation and thermal shock resistance as well as low resistivity. READ MORE
