  1. 16. How About Running on Mars ? Influence of Sensory Coherence on the Running Pattern and on Spatial Perception in Simulated Reduced Gravity

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

    Author : Marie Keime; [2022]
    Keywords : Adaptation; Gravity; Locomotion; Sensory factors; Spatial perception; Unweighting.; Rörelse; Gravitation; Anpassning; Avvägning; Sensoriska faktorer; Rumslig uppfattning.;

    Abstract : Motor control, including locomotion, strongly depends on the gravitational field. Recent developments like lower-body positive pressure treadmills (LBPPTs) have enabled Earth- based studies on the effects of reduced body weight (BW) on walking and running. Yet, the observed adaptations to simulated hypogravity are not optimal. READ MORE

  3. 17. Surgical stress response in patients with perioperative statin and/or beta-blocker treatment during colon cancer surgery

    University essay from Örebro universitet/Institutionen för medicinska vetenskaper

    Author : Arvid Lindgren; [2022]
    Keywords : Surgical stress response; Colorectal surgery; Beta-blocker treatment; Statin treatment; C-reactive protein.;

    Abstract : Background: Surgical stress during resection surgery for colon cancer has previously been shown to be associated with adverse postoperative outcomes. Statin and beta-blocker treatment have been shown to lower postoperative complications and mortality, and been hypothesized to reduce the surgical stress response, although this correlation has not been studied clinically.

  4. 18. Efficiency of sustainable urban drainage systems during flash floods

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Snærós Axelsdóttir; [2022]
    Keywords : Bioretention Cell; Rain Garden; Infiltration Trench; Green Roof; Permeable Pavement; Stormwater runoff; Storm Water Management Model;

    Abstract : As the world’s population is migrating more into urban areas, landcover changes follow. Natural pervious areas are being converted to impervious areas, which when subjected to rain generates more stormwater runoff. READ MORE

  5. 19. Numerical study of a vibroacoustic wave trap for e-vehicles

    University essay from KTH/Teknisk akustik

    Author : Antoine Curien; [2022]
    Keywords : wheel vibrations; passive vibration control; multiple tuned mass damper; bending mode; numerical optimisation; damping; resonance; robustness; reduction methods; Hjulvibrationer; passiv vibrationsreglering; multi tuned mass damper; böjningsläge; numerisk optimering; dämpning; resonans; robusthet; modale reduktionsmetoder;

    Abstract : The transition from internal combustion engine to battery electric cars is accompanied by a shift on the NVH issues damaging the passenger comfort. The rolling noise generated by the wheels and tyres is in particular characterized by an increasing attention from OEMs and car manufacturers. READ MORE

  6. 20. Automation of carbonyl index calculations for fast evaluation of microplastics degradation

    University essay from KTH/Fysik

    Author : Maja Walfridson; Emma Kuttainen Thyni; [2022]
    Keywords : FTIR; Carbonyl index; Degradation of microplastics; Microplastics; Automation;

    Abstract : The broad use of plastics has resulted in the increase in both production and consequent plastic pollution in the environment. Microplastics, defined as particles < 5 mm, is of special interest because of its wide existence in environment and potential hazards to our ecosystem. READ MORE
