  3. 12. Plasmaendotelin och blodtryck hos hästar med dietinducerad fetma

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Clinical Sciences

    Author : Ellen Winqvist; [2014]
    Keywords : endotelin; EMS; ekvint metabolt syndrom; blodtryck; insulinresistens; endothelin; equine metabolic syndrome; blood pressure; insulin resistance; obesity; equine; horse;

    Abstract : Fetma är ett tillstånd som har visat sig öka risken för utvecklandet av metabolt (MS) syndrom hos människa. MS karaktäriseras av fetma (framförallt bukfetma), insulinresistens (IR), diabe-tes mellitus och högt blodtryck. Idag anses fetma även vara en av orsakerna till utvecklandet av ekvint metabolt syndrom (EMS) som ses hos hästar. READ MORE

  4. 13. Comparison of Idealized 1D and Forecast 2D Wave Spectra in Ship Response Predictions

    University essay from KTH/Marina system

    Author : Lars Björnsson; [2013]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Commonly, when calculating ship responses one uses idealized wave spectra to represent the sea. In the idealized model, the sea is frequently assumed to consist of swell and windwaves, which are usually represented by idealized 1D wave spectra, and the directionality of wind-waves is accounted for by multiplication with a standard spreading function.

  5. 14. PERFORMANCE MODELLING; BUNKER CONSUMPTION AS FUNCTION OF VESSEL SPEED

    University essay from KTH/Marina system

    Author : John Karlsson; [2012]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : An investigation of the bunker consumption as function of speed is made, which tries to identify the behaviour of the relationship. A lot of the work is based on a preparatory investigation made by Brita Melén Eriksson at NYKCool that indicates that the consumption is expressed with a specific S-shape. READ MORE

  6. 15. Ship Power Estimation for Marine Vessels Based on System Identification

    University essay from Reglerteknik; Tekniska högskolan

    Author : Jonas Källman; [2012]
    Keywords : Artificial neural network; Marine craft modelling; System identification; Optimal trim;

    Abstract : Large marine vessels carry their loads all over the world. It can be a container ship carrying over 10 000 containers filled with foods, textiles and electronics or a bulk freighter carrying 400 000 tons of coal. Vessels usually have a ballast system that pumps water into ballast tanks to stabilize the vessel. READ MORE
