  3. 2. Evaluation of intrafractional motion for patients receiving whole brain radiotherapy in open-faced immobilisation masks

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Sjukhusfysikerutbildningen

    Author : Sara Falk; [2023]
    Keywords : Medicine and Health Sciences;

    Abstract : Purpose/Background Patients receiving whole brain radiotherapy (WBRT) today are treated with an immobilisation mask which fully covers their face and therefore might be experienced as uncomfortable and claustrophobic. In recent years, optical surface scanning (OSS) systems have been implemented for patient positioning and real-time motion monitoring [1]. READ MORE

  4. 3. Evaluating the Undrained Shear Strength of Sulphide-Bearing Soils in the Sundsvall Area

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurser

  5. 4. Steel-to-concrete connections in narrow concrete corners

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Konstruktionsteknik

    Author : Daniel Carlson Bjernald; Emil Lönn; [2022]
    Keywords : Concrete; steel bolts; concrete failure modes; Abaqus; numerical calculations; concrete cone failure; concrete damaged plasticity; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : A commonly occurring problem when designing steel-to-concrete connections in corners with space deficits is the necessity for irregularly placed bolts with regards to design codes. The complexity of the calculations for the irregular placements of bolts generates the need to use simplified models during the design. READ MORE
