    Sammanfattning : Migraine is an extremely common and disabling disease that affects three times more women than men, and is characterized by recurring migraines comprised of disturbances in sensation perception, intense head pain, nausea, and increased sensitivity to light and sound that can last from several hours to multiple days. Currently, there are no cures for the disease, no official social services that can help a person to handle living with it, and limited studies on its mechanisms or impact on a person’s life.

  5. 4. The climate impact of fishways : A life cycle assessment of Blyberg’s and Spjutmo’s up- and downstream fishways

    Master-uppsats, Linköpings universitet/Industriell miljöteknik

    Författare :Ellen Lundin; Lovisa Liljenberg; [2023]
    Nyckelord :LCA; life cycle analysis; life cycle assessment; fishways; fish; fish migration; climate impact; technical fishways; co2 equivalents; co2 eq; hydro power; HPP; Sweden; construction; concrete; reinforcement steel;

    Sammanfattning : The Swedish national plan for reapproval of hydropower describes that hydropower plants (HPPs) are required to be reassessed to ensure that modern environmental conditions are set for the permits. Since dams and HPPs create barriers for migrating fish and consequently disfavor biological diversity, one consequence of the national plan is that fishways are being constructed. LÄS MER

  7. 5. The Impact of Foveated Rendering as Used for Head-Mounted Displays in Interactive Video Games

    Kandidat-uppsats, Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Institutionen för datavetenskap

    Författare :Klara Andersson; Erik Landén; [2023]

    Sammanfattning : Introduction: In this study, foveated rendering has been explored as its impacton people in a virtual reality (VR) video game setting. Foveated rendering has thepotential to decrease the performance cost of virtual reality gaming by only renderingthe part of the scene where the user is looking. It achieves this with the use of aneye tracker. LÄS MER
