  1. 6. Body condition assessment : as a welfare and management tool for radiated tortoises (Astrochelys radiata)

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Animal Environment and Health

    Author : Linn Lagerström; [2020]
    Keywords : Tortoise; turtle; radiated tortoise; Astrochelys radiata; Geochelone radiata; body condition indices; body condition score; morphometrics;

    Abstract : Body condition score (BCS) is frequently used to evaluate animal management practises for a variety of animal species in zoological collections and for production animals. The aim of this study was to apply different body condition indices and evaluate if they can be used as a welfare assessment and management tool for captive and wild critically endangered radiated tortoises (Astrochelys radiata).

  3. 7. A reliable method of tractography analysis : of DTI-data from anatomically and clinically difficult groups

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Radiologi

    Author : Johanna Blomstedt; [2019]
    Keywords : MRI; DTI; diffusion; trigeminal nerve; radiology;

    Abstract : MRI is used to produce images of tissue in the body. DTI, specifically, makes it possible to track the effects of nerves where they are in the brain. This project includes a shell script and a guide for using the FMRIB Software Library, followed by StarTrack and then Trackvis in order to track difficult areas in the brain. READ MORE

  4. 8. Tank Shell Design According to Eurocodes and Evaluation of Calculation Methods

    University essay from Karlstads universitet/Institutionen för ingenjörsvetenskap och fysik (from 2013)

    Author : Malin Pluto; [2018]
    Keywords : Tank; Eurocode; Membrane theory; Linear elastic shell analysis; Finite element method;

    Abstract : Tanks are storage vessels for liquids. They can have different appearances; some are short and wide, others are tall and slim, some are small, others are large. In this thesis a tank of 6 m in both diameter and height has been used to obtain numerical results of the stresses in the tank. READ MORE

  5. 9. Master thesis within light warhead for support weapon : Investigation of defects, methods and requirement specifications in order to get a shell body shatter free

    University essay from Karlstads universitet/Avdelningen för maskin- och materialteknik

    Author : Adam Jansson; [2016]
    Keywords : warhead; support weapon; shell body; shatter free; defect; method; carbon fibre; epoxy; crack; delamination; porosity; CFRP; CFRE; NDT; verkansdel; understödsvapen; granathylsa; splitterfri; defekt; metod; kolfiber; epoxi; spricka; delaminering; porositet; OFP;

    Abstract : At launching the shell body, especially the backplane of the shell body, will be exposed to very high stresses due to acceleration, pressure and increased temperature from the propellant combustion. Defects in the shell body could in worst case for example result in high temperature gas leakage into the warhead and thereby ignite the explosives before exiting the launcher. READ MORE

  6. 10. Development of a Hepatitis B virus capsid as a nanocontainer and a carrier for protein delivery into cells

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiska institutionen
