  1. 1. The intraspecific drought tolerance of Betula pendula Roth. : ecotypic aptitude as tree selection criteria for the urban landscape

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Plant Breeding (from 130101)

    Författare :Simon Hannus; [2021]
    Nyckelord :Betula pendula; clinal variation; drought tolerance; ecosystem services; ecotypes; potential evapotranspiration; turgor loss point; urban forestry; urban resilience; urban tree selection;

    Sammanfattning : The ecosystem services provided by urban trees are substantial contributors to the quality of urban living, and their environmentally regulating capabilities are increasingly regarded as integral in order to efficiently secure urban resilience, by ameliorating the human and material impacts of extreme weather events. However, current trends of urban development presents challenges of how to preserve urban greenery ecosystem functioning, particularly in light of the ongoing climate change; which also has brought forth the importance of taxonomically diverse urban forests, to mitigate risks of catastrophic tree loss associated with these conditions.

  2. 2. Fluid/Material Coupled Numerical Analysis of Single Bubble Collapse Near a Pit on a Wall

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Strömningsmekanik och Teknisk Akustik

    Författare :Daiki Makii; [2020]
    Nyckelord :Bubble Dynamics; Cavitation Erosion; Numerical Analysis; Fluid Material Coupled Numerical Method; Homogeneous Model; Elastic Body Material; Erosion Pit;

    Sammanfattning : In order to elucidate the progression mechanism of cavitation erosion, the behaviors of a single cavitation bubble collapse near a pit on a wall and both the resulting pressure wave in fluid and stress wave in material are investigated in detail. To find out the mechanism of cavitation erosion, many experimental studies on the bubble collapse behavior near a flat rigid wall and the resulting material damage have been conducted so far.

  3. 3. Systemuppbyggnad och entreprenörskap från grunden : Fallstudie: ”off- grid” vatten- och avloppslösning på Värmdö

    Master-uppsats, Mälardalens högskola/Industriell ekonomi och organisation

    Författare :Joel Nygren; Patric Hjort; [2020]
    Nyckelord :Socio-technical systems; Large technical systems; LTS; Multi-level perspective; MLP; Critical interface; Entrepreneurship; Water and sewage industry; Sociotekniska system; Stora tekniska system; Multinivåperspektiv; Kritiska gränsskiktet; Entreprenörskap; VA-branschen;

    Sammanfattning : Research questions:  How can the Aspvik model be useful for the traditionally functioning water and sewage industry? What are the main challenges for regime actors to implement systems similar to those derived from the Aspvik model? Purpose: The purpose of the study is two-fold. Firstly, we intend to investigate system development and entrepreneurship from below in a local project in the water and sewage industry and its business model. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Investigation of immunomodulatory properties of anti-secretory factor in experimental brain tumor models

    Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Läkarutbildningen

    Författare :Hanin Fabiana El-Sabee; Amanda Peetre; [2020]
    Nyckelord :Antisecretory factor; Immunomodulation; Glioblastoma; Medicine and Health Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Introduction: Glioblastoma is the most aggressive form of primary brain tumor in adults. Current treatment including chemotherapy poses a limitation due to consequences of systemic toxicity. Further studies for alternative, multimodal treatments are necessary. Antisecretory factor is an endogenous protein. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Patienters upplevelse av att leva med diabetesfotsår : En litteraturöversikt

    Kandidat-uppsats, Ersta Sköndal Bräcke högskola/Institutionen för vårdvetenskap

    Författare :Paola Gamboa Alva; Jehona Kelmendi; [2019]
    Nyckelord :Diabetes; Foot ulcer; Experience; Pain; Complications; Fear; Worry; Diabetes; Fotsår; Upplevelser; Smärta; Komplikationer; Rädsla; Oro;

    Sammanfattning : Bakgrund: Diabetessjukdomen är en kronisk sjukdom som drabbar ett stort antal människor världen över. I Sverige drabbas omkring cirka 50 000 människor av diabetessjukdomen rapporterar nationella diabetesregistret. Att leva med diabetes under en längre tid kan medfölja olika komplikationer. LÄS MER
