  2. 1. Compartment Fire Temperature Calculations and Measurements

    Author : Alexandra Byström; Ulf Wickström; Sven Thelandersson; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; compartment fire temperature; heat transfer; FEM; calculation of temperature; temperature measurement; fire scenario; validation; flashover; Stålbyggnad; Steel Structures;

    Abstract : This thesis is devoted to heat transfer and fire dynamics in enclosures. It consists of a main part which summarizes and discusses the theory of heat transfer, conservation of energy, fire dynamics and specific fire scenarios that have been studied. READ MORE

  4. 2. Measurement and evaluation of body temperature : Implications for clinical practice

    Author : Märtha Sund-Levander; Lis Karin Wahren; Ewa Grodzinsky; Karin Axelsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : Assessment; body temperature measurement; elderly; evaluation; infection; nursing home; pneumonia; survival; MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : The general aim was to explore factors influencing the normal variation and measurement of body temperature. Additional aims were to study morbidity, mortality and the clinical presentation of pneumonia and predictors for survival in elderly nursing-home residents. READ MORE

  5. 3. Embedded Measurement Systems

    Author : Lars Bengtsson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Microcontroller; measurement system; direct sensor-to-controller; time-to-digital converter; phase detector; lock-in amplifier;

    Abstract : The subject of Embedded Measurement Systems (EMS) is the merging of embedded systems and electrical measurement systems. This indicates that EMSs are hardware-software systems dedicated to measuring one or a few physical quantities. READ MORE

  6. 4. Spatial variations of the urban climate and its influence on thermal comfort and behaviour

    Author : Fredrik Lindberg; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Sky view factor; air temperature; surface temperature; GIS; raster modelling; mean radiant temperature; globe temperature; the SOLWIEG-model; human behaviour; outdoor activity;

    Abstract : The increased number of people living in urban areas emphasises the need for an improved understanding of how the urban climate affects human activity and behaviour. The spatial and temporal variation of climate within cities is an important factor in people’s health and well-being. READ MORE

  7. 5. Fibre-Optic Displacement and Temperature Sensing Using Coupling Based Intensity Modulation and Polarisation Modulation Techniques

    Author : Johan Jason; Hans-Erik Nilsson; Bertil Arvidsson; Werner Daum; Mittuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; optical fibre sensor; displacement measurement; temperature measurement; fibre coupling; intensity modulation; birefringence; polarisation; OTDR; side-hole fibre;

    Abstract : Optical fibre sensors are employed in the measurements of a number of different physical properties or for event detection in safety and security systems. In those environments which suffer from electromagnetic disturbance, in harsh environments where electronics cannot survive and in applications in favour of distributed detection, fibre-optic sensors have found natural areas of use.
