  1. 1. FE-Modelling of Composite Girder tests

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurser

    Author : Holger Berggren; Bergstedt Ola; [2024]
    Keywords : shear connector; post-installed; coiled spring pins; composite girder; partial composite action; finite element method;

    Abstract : Many of the existing steel-concrete bridges may need to be strengthened, as heavier vehicles areallowed on the Swedish roads. These bridges could possibly be strengthened by post-installingshear connectors. The shear connectors may enhance the load-bearing capacity through a higherdegree of composite action between the steel and concrete interface. READ MORE

  2. 2. Load-velocity profiles as a predictor of performance level in swimming : What differentiates international elite swimmers from national elite – force capacity or efficiency?

    University essay from Gymnastik- och idrottshögskolan, GIH/Institutionen för fysiologi, nutrition och biomekanik

    Author : Maria Vitazka; [2023]
    Keywords : Load-Velocity; Force-Velocity; Force Capacity; Swimming; Biomechanics; Performance indicators; International elite; swimming performance; 1080 Sprint; 1080 Motion; Semi-tethered force measurements; tethered force measurements; maximum velocity; load; force; swimming efficiency;

    Abstract : Aim  The purposes of this study were to investigate if the load-velocity (L-V) profile parameters – force capacity and efficiency - differ between swimmers of different performance level, and to investigate if efficiency is the key performance indicator between international elite and national elite level swimmers.  Method  Fifty-four swimmers (27 female and 27 male) of either regional level, national elite or international elite level, participated in this study.

    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Female Genital Mutilation/Cutting (FGM/C) is a universal concern, with more than 200 million girls and women alive today who have undergone the practice primarily concentrated in Africa. The Maasai, a semi-nomadic ethnic group inhabiting the Northern Central part of Tanzania, have the highest rate of FGM/C in the whole country. READ MORE

  4. 4. Surface Runoff on Green Urban Areas : A study on driving forces behind surface runoff generaiton

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Luft-, vatten- och landskapslära

    Author : Erik Nilsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Surface runoff; Hydrus; Urban green area; Soil Moisture;

    Abstract : Recent flooding events, such as the one in Germany 2021 have caused irreversible damages to infrastructure and lives. The aftermath of events like these have underlined the importance of an accurate risk management by predicting them in urban areas. READ MORE

  5. 5. Oral contraceptive phases and performance : Strength, anaerobic capacity, and lactate responce

    University essay from Högskolan i Halmstad/Akademin för företagande, innovation och hållbarhet

    Author : Isa Rönneblad; Elsa Ohrås; [2023]
    Keywords : Performance; oral contraceptive; contraception; Wingate; IMTP; anaerobic capacity; strength; percieved energy level; lactate; prestation; p-piller; preventionsmedel; anaerob förmåga; styrka; upplevd energinivå; laktat;

    Abstract : Background: Oral contraceptives are common among female athletes. Still, its effects on athletic performance are poorly investigated. Research in the area has increased in recent years. However, the study qualities and designs are often insufficient and with small sample sizes. READ MORE
