  1. 1. The combination of SFDI with a mathematical model links perturbation in microcirculation to early stages of sepsis

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för medicinsk teknik

    Author : Caroline Korsfeldt; Sara Karajica; [2022]
    Keywords : SFDI; SFDS; mathematical modeling; sepsis;

    Abstract : The microcirculation system is crucial for the function of delivering biological markers such as oxygen and removing carbon dioxide from all the cells forming the complex ma- trix of tissue in the body. To keep up with the demands of each and every cell, there is a response from the microvasculature - resulting from for instance changes in blood flow to the tissue area. READ MORE

  3. 2. Defining the Voice of Montreal: Exploring Possibilities for Human-Machine Companionship

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för etnologi

    Author : Malik Dehbi Talbot; [2020]
    Keywords : critical posthumanism; artificial intelligence; virtual assistant; tourism; science and technology studies; human-machine relationships; voicebot; labor relations; companion; sociomaterial assemblage; History and Archaeology; Social Sciences;

    Abstract : This thesis explores the possibility for (re)defining the relationship between humans and robots with conversational interfaces. It does so by looking at the creation process of a voice and text-based virtual assistant for tourists from the perspective of critical posthumanism and posthuman performativity. READ MORE

  4. 3. Exploiting mobile technology affordances to support second language students using affective learning

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Yanwen Ma; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Self-regulated learning (SRL) which relates to challenges concerning both cognitive and affective learning domains is directly associated with students’ academic performance. It is especially critical for second language learners who need to employ SRL strategies and skills to be able to acquire the target language effectively. READ MORE

  5. 4. Reykjavík’s roadsides : using roadside vegetation as a source to increase biological diversity in urban environments

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Urban and Rural Development

    Author : Hrönn Hafliðadóttir; [2018]
    Keywords : Urban Biodiversity; Roadside vegetation; Reykjavík´s Roadsides; Ecological Design; Planting Design; Native Flora;

    Abstract : With the expansion and densification of urban environments, natural and man-made, open and green areas get lost for buildings and transportation systems. It is therefore crucial to take care of the green areas and ecologically favourable environments to support urban biodiversity. READ MORE

  6. 5. Pattern Reconfigurable MIMO Antennas for Multiband LTE Operation

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknik

    Author : Rui Ma; Ioannis Chountalas; [2015]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Nowadays, multiple antennas are becoming widely used in small mobile terminals as they can significantly improve wireless communication performance in terms of link reliability and spectral efficiency. Also, pattern reconfiguration is another new trend for antenna design as it enables the antennas to adapt to different propagation and user scenarios. READ MORE
