  1. 1. Socioeconomic Consequences of Childhood Onset Type 1 Diabetes – a case study of the impact of an early life health shock

    Author : Sofie Persson; Hälsoekonomi; []
    Keywords : Type 1 diabetes; health; socioeconomic outcomes; education; employment; earnings;

    Abstract : Type 1 diabetes is a lifelong, chronic disease, that generally has a sudden onset early in life, which changes the conditions for the affected child and the child’s family. The overall purpose of this thesis was to explore the socioeconomic consequences of childhood onset type 1 diabetes and through this investigate how an early life health shock can affect adult socioeconomic status.

  2. 2. Flow and Compression of Granulated Powders : The Accuracy of Discrete Element Simulations and Assessment of Tablet Microstructure

    Author : Ann-Sofie Persson; Göran Frenning; Göran Alderborn; Marie Wahlgren; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Discrete Element Method; Granule; Flow; Angle of Repose; Discharge Rate; Shear; Rolling friction; Compression; Elastic deformation; Microstructure; Degree of compression; Tensile strength; Galenisk farmaci; Pharmaceutics;

    Abstract : Simulations are powerful and important tools for gaining insight into powder processes. Ultimately, simulations have the potential to replace experiments. Thus, accurate models and insight into the essential factors for descriptions of powder behaviour are required. READ MORE

  3. 3. Steel as the Answer? : Viking Bodies, Power, and Masculinity in Anglophone Fantasy Literature 2006–2016

    Author : Anna Bark Persson; Ulla Manns; Ann-Sofie Lönngren; Maria Lindgren Leavenworth; Södertörns högskola; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Vikings; the North; the Nordics; masculinity; fantasy literature; queer reading; temporality; postfeminism; embodiment; vikingar; Norden; maskulinitet; fantasylitteratur; queer läsning; temporalitet; postfeminism; kroppslighet; Kritisk kulturteori; Critical and Cultural Theory; genusvetenskap;

    Abstract : This dissertation examines the motif of the popular Viking in contemporary Anglophone fantasy literature, with a focus on masculinity, power, embodiment,and sexuality. The study draws on queer-theoretical perspectives on masculinity and the method of queer reading, and approaches the Viking as at once bound up with the legitimization of normative and hegemonic forms of masculinity and open to (queer) negotiations and possibilities beyond normative male masculinities.

  4. 4. Belfast Textiles : On Ciaran Carson’s Poetics

    Author : Jenny Malmqvist; Lars-Håkan Svensson; Jan Anward; Ann-Sofie Persson; Charles Armstrong; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Irish poetry; Ciaran Carson; poetics; intertextuality; translation; Irländsk poesi; Ciaran Carson; poetik; intertextualitet; översättning;

    Abstract : This thesis is a study of the formation and development of Ciaran Carson’s poetics from his debut in the 1970s up to and including his fourth principal collection of poems, First Language, published in 1993. Examining Carson’s recourse to different kinds of rewriting, made manifest as intertextuality and translation, it aims to account for the thematic formulation and formal realization of this poetics.

  5. 5. Tableting performance of dry granulated particles : Significance and assessment of compression mechanical properties

    Author : Maryam Tofiq; Göran Alderborn; Ann-Sofie Persson; Josefina Nordström; Peter Kleinebudde; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Dry granulation; Powder compression; Compression parameters; Granule composition; Granule structure; Granule strength; Granule fragmentation; Granule deformation; Tablet tensile strength; Loss of tabletability;

    Abstract : Dry granulation (DG) is often utilized as an intermediate process during tablet manufacturing, for improving flow characteristics of the powder blend and/or reducing segregation issues related to the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API). The resulting granules exhibit typically irregular shapes with rough surfaces and their mechanical properties are related to the feeding powder and the process parameters used during the DG. READ MORE
