  1. 1. Development of an intervention framework for design, implementation and adoption of occupational exoskeletons

    University essay from KTH/Ergonomi

    Author : Gennaro Alberico; [2022]
    Keywords : Industrial exoskeletons; key facilitators adoption barriers; intervention framework;

    Abstract : During the last few years, wearable technologies or body-worn assistive devices have become very popular within the occupational field. Among them, there are the so-called exoskeletons which have shown a promising potential in several areas ranging from medical care, military to, particularly during the last five years, industrial applications.

  3. 2. Simulation of THz Quantum Cascade Lasers

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematisk fysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Viktor Rindert; [2021]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Quantum Cascade Lasers (QCLs) have since their invention in 1994 become a crucial source for mid-infrared and THz radiation. Mid-infrared QCLs have achieved room temperature operation while THz QCLs have not. As such, simulations are an important tool in order to achieve a THz QCL operational at room temperature.

  4. 3. Merging brain-computer interfaces and virtual reality : A neuroscientific exploration

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Author : Silvia Boldeanu; [2018]
    Keywords : Brain-computer interface BCI ; Brain-machine interface BMI ; Virtual reality VR ; Motor imagery; Visual evoked potentials; Brain-to-brain communication;

    Abstract : Brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) blend methods and concepts researched by cognitive neuroscience, electrophysiology, computer science and engineering, resulting in systems of bi-directional information exchange directly between brain and computer. BCIs contribute to medical applications that restore communication and mobility for disabled patients and provide new forms of sending information to devices for enhancement and entertainment.

  5. 4. Investigation of high-barrier materials development for long shelf-life dairy-based products with enhanced properties

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Förpackningslogistik

    Author : Anna Kim; [2016]
    Keywords : barrier materials; OTR; shelf-life; flexible packaging; rigid packaging; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : This thesis has been pursuing an objective to investigate the recent developments in the field of high oxygen barrier materials for the dairy based medical nutrition portfolio. The main goal of this research was to identify the materials and/or approaches that would allow the decrease of oxygen ingress with resulting shelf-life extension. READ MORE

  6. 5. Towards the Development of the Dual Modal Contrast Agent for Computed Tomography and Ultrasound

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknik och hälsa (STH)

    Author : Hongjian Chen; [2016]
    Keywords : Computed tomography; Ultrasound; Hybrid contrast agents; Polyvinyl alcohol;

    Abstract : Nowadays hybrid imaging modalities are new trends in medical imaging. To improve the diagnostic outcome of hybrid imaging, multimodal contrast agents need to be developed. For example, hybrid contrast agents for computer tomography and ultrasound (CACTUS) are one of those desirable hybrid contrast agents for the modern medical imaging. READ MORE
