  1. 1. Assessment of Lower Limb Muscle Strength: Feasibility and Implementation on Exxentric’s SingleExx Machines

    University essay from KTH/Medicinteknik och hälsosystem

    Author : Maximilian Geisler; [2023]
    Keywords : Force measurement; Lower limb strength; Symmetry assessment; Flywheel-based leg extension machine; Prototype development; Isokinetic dynamometer; Kraftmätning; Styrka i nedre extremiteterna; Symmetribedömning; Flywheel- baserad benförlängningsmaskin; Prototyputveckling; Isokinetisk dynamometer;

    Abstract : Measuring lower limb strength and symmetry is a common practice in elite sports to determine the return to sports point in time during rehabilitation, and this information could be useful for amateur athletes too. However, the devices used for this are highly sophisticated and hardly accessible. READ MORE

  3. 2. Polymer-based additive manufacturing: optimization for high-performance degradable polymers

    University essay from KTH/Fiber- och polymerteknologi

    Author : Danjing Chen; [2022]
    Keywords : copolymerization; fused filament fabrication; degradable polymer; scaffold; 3D printing; sampolymerisering; tillverkning av filament; nedbrytbar polymer; tredimensionella matriser; 3D printing;

    Abstract : I det här utvecklas en reproducerbar polymerisationsmetod för att uppnå en stabil produktion av poly(ε-caprolakton-co-p-dioxanon) (PCLDX), skala upp filamenttillverkningen för att producera 1.75 mm långa filament och optimera 3D-utskriftsprocessen för att tillverka ställningar/anordningar för mjukvävnadsteknik.

  4. 3. The Effect of Whole-Body Vibration Preconditioning on High-Altitude-Induced Venous Gas Emboli

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)

    Author : Tommaso Tuci; [2020]
    Keywords : Whole-Body Vibration; Vibration; High-Altitude Aviation; Venous Gas Emboli; VGE; Decompression sickness; DCS;

    Abstract : Decompression sickness (DCS) is a risk associated with high-altitude aviation and diving. During these activities, decompression may lead to supersaturation of inert gas dissolved in bodily tissues and subsequently activate bubble formation in various bodily tissues, including in venous blood, known as venous gas emboli (VGE).

  5. 4. Motion asymmetry and body fat in Swedish riding school horses : is there a connection?

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Anatomy, Physiology and Biochemistry

    Author : Emma Wärnsberg; [2020]
    Keywords : horse; equine; motion asymmetry; BCS; body fat; riding school; lameness;

    Abstract : In Sweden, there are about 18 000 riding school horses and in 2018 almost five million riding hours took place in Swedish riding schools. A recent study found that overweight is common in riding school horses, 28 % had a BCS ≥ 7. It has been reported that the prevalence of overweight and obesity in the equine population has increased worldwide. READ MORE

  6. 5. Pixel-Based Algorithms for Data Analysis in Digital Pathology : Data Analysis of the BOMI2 Redox Dataset, A Step Away From Cell Segmentation Dependant Methods

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Avdelningen för visuell information och interaktion

    Author : Michael Wallgren Fjellander; [2019]
    Keywords : Digital Pathology; Image Analysis; Algorithms; Cell Segmentation; Pixel-based Methods; Cancer; Knee Point;

    Abstract : In this project report a novel pixel-based approach to digital pathology is proposed. The algorithm directly decides the class of single pixels in an image without needing the larger context of neighbouring pixels. READ MORE
