  1. 1. Temporal patterns of daily occupations and personal projects relevant for older persons’ subjective health : a health promotive perspective

    Author : Cecilia Björklund; Birgitta Bernsprång; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; elderly; temporal routines; structure of occupations; real time-use; added time-use; time-geographic method; core projects; personal projects; occupational value; health and well-being; Occupational Therapy; Arbetsterapi;

    Abstract : Engagement in daily occupations has been shown to positively influence subjective health of older persons, but there is little knowledge of how such daily occupations should be temporally structured. This thesis is guided by two concepts to explore the temporal structure of daily occupations. READ MORE

  2. 2. Real-time multi-exposure laser speckle contrast imaging of skin microcirculatory perfusion

    Author : Martin Hultman; Ingemar Fredriksson; Marcus Larsson; Tomas Strömberg; Anne Heurtier; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Multi-exposure laser speckle contrast imaging; Microcirculatory perfusion; Machine learning;

    Abstract : The microcirculation, the blood flow in the smallest blood vessels in the body, has a vital function as this is where oxygen and nutrients diffuses from the blood to to the surrounding cells. An important quantity is the tissue perfusion, a measure of the microcirculation’s capacity to provide oxygen and nutrients to the cells. READ MORE

  3. 3. Methods and models for safety benefit assessment of advanced driver assistance systems in car-to-cyclist conflicts

    Author : Jordanka Kovaceva; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Traffic safety; overtaking manoeuvres; cyclist; safety benefit; naturalistic data;

    Abstract : To help drivers avoid or mitigate the severity of crashes, advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) can be designed to provide warnings or interventions. Prospective safety assessment of ADAS is important to quantify and optimise their safety benefit. Such safety assessment methods include, for example, virtual simulations and test-track testing.

  4. 4. Haptic Interaction with Deformable Objects

    Author : Umut Kocak; Matthew Cooper; Karljohan Lundin Palmerius; Miguel Otaduy; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The integration of haptics into virtual environments has triggered a new era by allowing interaction with virtual objects through force feedback in a number of fields. Medicine has been the field with highest potential benefit through improved realism and immersion. READ MORE

  5. 5. Expensive time and busy money : A study of households' substitution between time and expenditures in consumption and household production with emphasis on the food section

    Author : Jan Lindvall; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Household production; consumer behavior; informal sector; home economics; INTERDISCIPLINARY RESEARCH AREAS; TVÄRVETENSKAPLIGA FORSKNINGSOMRÅDEN;

    Abstract : This study deals with household production. The subject is defined as activities with an outcome that can be substituted for that of the work of others. Household production is a part of the unrecorded, informal sector, and a number of previous studies have shown that this subsector is quite large. READ MORE
