  2. 1. Firefighters' physical work capacity

    Author : Ann-Sofie Lindberg; Christer Malm; Juha Oksa; Desiree Gavhed; Peter Krustrup; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Physical demands; performance; work capacity; aerobic fitness; anaerobic fitness; muscle strength; muscle endurance; balance; ergonomics; physical testing; SIMCA;

    Abstract : The overall aim of this thesis was to identify valid, simple, and inexpensive physical tests that can be used for evaluation of firefighters’ physical work capacity. Paper I included fulltime- and part-time firefighters (n = 193), aged 20-60 years. READ MORE

  4. 2. Exploring Catalytic Tellurium-Based Antioxidants : Synthesis and Evaluation

    Author : Jia-fei Poon; Lars Engman; John Murphy; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; antioxidant; tellurium; selenium; radical-trapping; chain-breaking; ROS; glutathione peroxidase; tocopherol; aromatic amine; oxidative stress;

    Abstract : This thesis is concerned with the synthesis and evaluation of various tellurium-based chain-breaking antioxidants. The purpose is to find novel regenerable compounds with improved radical-trapping capacity.In the first part of this work, we explore the possibilities to incorporate tellurium into tocopherols and aromatic amines.

  5. 3. Measures and method characteristics for early evaluation of safe operation in nuclear power plant control room systems

    Author : Eva Simonsen; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; control room; early development; human factors engineering; safe operation; resilience engineering; evaluation methods; nuclear power;

    Abstract : Safe operation is a central objective for high-risk industries such as nuclear power plants. Operation of the plant is managed from a central control room, which is a complex socio-technical system of physical and organisational structures such as operators, procedures, routines, and operator interfaces.

  6. 4. Evaluation and variability of power grid hosting capacity for electric vehicles : Case studies of residential areas in Sweden

    Author : Maria Sandström; Erik Dotzauer; Chris Bales; Pei Huang; Björn Laumert; Högskolan i Gävle; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Hosting capacity HC ; Power grid; Electric vehicle EV ; Charging strategies; Power flow simulations; Uncertainty analysis; Hållbar stadsutveckling; Sustainable Urban Development; inget Strategiskt forskningsområde SFO ; no Strategic Research Area SFO ;

    Abstract : Electric vehicles (EVs) are increasing in popularity and play an important role in decarbonizing the transport sector. However, a growing EV fleet can cause problems for power grids as the grids are not initially designed for EV charging. The potential of a power grid to accommodate EV loads can be assessed through hosting capacity (HC) analysis. READ MORE

  7. 5. Serum Cholesterol, Lifestyle, Working Capacity and Quality of Life in Patients with Coronary Artery Disease. Experiences from a Hospital-based Secondary Prevention Programme

    Author : Roland Carlsson; Lund Medicin; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Kardiovaskulära systemet; Cardiovascular system; work capacity; quality of life; lipid lowering treatment; secondary prevention; lifestyle changes; coronary artery bypass surgery; : Coronary artery disease; myocardial infarction;

    Abstract : Coronary artery diseases (CAD) are main causes of morbidity and hospitalisation in western countries and CAD patients are at considerable risk of suffering further cardiac events. The development and evaluation of secondary prevention programmes therefore an important task. READ MORE
