2. 1. Variability of blood pressure and heart rate in borderline and mild hypertension : With special reference to spectral analysis

   Author : Reijo Takalo; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : Medical sciences; hypertension; blood pressure; ambulatory monitoring; power spectrum analysis; pulsecontour method; systemic hemodynamics; MEDICIN OCH VÅRD; MEDICINE; MEDICIN; Clinical Physiology; klinisk fysiologi;

   Abstract : The aim of this thesis was to study whether blood pressure (BP) or heart rate (HR) variability in borderline (BHT) and hypertensive (HT) subjects differs from that in normotensive (NT) subjects, and whether indices for BP and HR variability can be used in risk stratification for future hypertension. The study groups consisted of 35 NT, 29 BHT, and 34 HT middle-aged men. READ MORE

4. 2. Ultrasonic NDT in Defect Detection - Mathematical modelling

   Author : Håkan Wirdelius; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; crack; null field approach; transducers; optimisation; ultrasonics; elastic waves; nondestructive testing; T matrix method; inverse problem;

   Abstract : This thesis is concerned with the mathematical modelling of the ultrasonic nondestructive testing situation. The first part of the thesis treats a simplified model of an ultrasonic transducer and its implementation into a T-matrix method-based solution to a crack scattering problem. READ MORE

5. 3. Multilevel Power Converters with Smart Control for Wave Energy Conversion

   Author : Deepak Elamalayil Soman; Mats Leijon; Jan Isberg; Sebastain Nielebock; Gopal Mondal; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Multilevel power converter; FPGA control; Wave Energy; Three-level boost converter; Three-level buck-boost converter; Variable-renewable-energy; Three-level neutral point clamped inverter; Linear generator; DC-link; AC2AC direct converter; Modular multilevel converter; Engineering Science with specialization in Science of Electricity; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot elektricitetslära;

   Abstract : The main focus of this thesis is on the power electronic converter system challenges associated with the grid integration of variable-renewable-energy (VRE) sources like wave, marine current, tidal, wind, solar etc. Wave energy conversion with grid integration is used as the key reference, considering its high energy potential to support the future clean energy requirements and due the availability of a test facility at Uppsala University.

6. 4. Goal-directed fluid therapy during major abdominal surgery

   Author : Hans Bahlmann; Lena Nilsson; Robert Hahn; Anna Oscarsson Tibblin; Zsolt Molnar; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

   Abstract : Background: Both hypo- and hypervolemia increase the risk for postoperative complications after major abdominal surgery. Fluid needs vary amongst patients depending on differences in preoperative dehydration, intraoperative physiology and surgical characteristics. READ MORE
