1. Multi-method based characterization of calving events at Sálajiegna Glacier - Lake Sulitelma, Northern Sweden
University essay from Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografiAbstract : Sea level rise concerns millions of people in coastal areas across the globe. One of the largest uncertainties to project future sea level rise is the frontal ablation (accounting for calving and submarine melt) at marine ice margins, around the Greenland and Antarctic Ice Sheet.

2. Evaluation of occupant kinematics in crash using the PIPER model : in frontal and oblique crash simulations
University essay from Karlstads universitet/Fakulteten för hälsa, natur- och teknikvetenskap (from 2013)Abstract : A child dies in road traffic crashes every fourth minute. Totally were 186 300 children under the age of 18 killed in vehicle accidents in 2012, even more were severely injured [1]. READ MORE

3. Evaluation of Knee Ligament Injuries in Occupants of Heavy Goods Vehicles by Simulating Frontal Impacts using THUMS HBM
University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)Abstract : INTRODUCTION. Frontal collisions have been observed to cause the severe injuries on heavy goods vehicle occupants, and the lower extremities have been frequently injured. Injuries of knee joints are rarely life threatening, however they tend to give long-term consequences. AIM. READ MORE

4. Development of Methods and Guidelines for Upper Extremity Injury in Car Accidents
University essay from Högskolan i Halmstad/Akademin för ekonomi, teknik och naturvetenskapAbstract : The project focus has been development of guidelines and methods for upper extremity injury reduction in car crashes. The safety of the central body parts improves which indicates the need to develop methods for avoiding non-life threatening injuries such as fracture of the arms. READ MORE

5. Finite Element Modeling of Rubber Bushing for Crash Simulation - Experimental Tests and Validation
University essay from Lunds universitet/ByggnadsmekanikAbstract : Until recently, the general level of detail in full car crash models has not allowed a physical modeling of rubber bushings with solid elements. This is partly because of the difficulty in modeling the complex characteristic of rubber, but also due to limited understanding of the mechanical properties of rubber materials. READ MORE
