This study explores structural modifications for reducing train-induced vibrations in timber buildings by modifying the building layout. A parameter study was conducted using a semi-analytical ground model coupled with a finite element structural model. The train load was modeled as a stationary oscillating point load of unit magnitude, applied on the ground surface. The analyzed frequency range,
Aim: To explore the impact of age on the discriminative ability of the National Early Warning Score (NEWS) 2 in prediction of unanticipated Intensive Care Unit (ICU) admission, in-hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA) and mortality within 24 hours of Rapid Response Team (RRT) review. Furthermore, to investigate 30- and 90-day mortality, and the discriminative ability of NEWS 2 in prediction of long-term
In industries like high-tech and automotive, increasingly more of the product value delivered to the customer is based on a combination of hardware (HW) and software (SW), where SW handles much of the differentiation of capacity and features. The “logistics process” of SW, especially when it merges with HW along the process, has so far been little studied but a problem noticed is the difficulties
Aims: Since its outbreak in 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic has directly caused the premature death of millions. However, indirect consequences, such as social restrictions, have affected a far greater number. We explored the association between the spread of COVID-19 and end-of-life circumstances in the infected and non-infected population in Sweden. Methods: In this descriptive, population-based, ob
This thesis presents the development of a prototype for a concealed power strip integrated into the underside of a sofa. The aim is to improve accessibility to electrical outlets while maintaining a clean and unobtrusive appearance in the living environment. The solution is designed to both hide cables and allow convenient access to power when seated, while ensuring sufficient ground clearance for
ICT changes continuously and we are used to look at IT in a slightly dif-ferent way every year. Things are developed and manufactured to be smaller and faster but few changes are truly technologically revolutionary. Some changes creep up on us as they arrive under cover of previously known technology. Solid State Disks (SSD) is such a technology. The use of SSD is simple enough and for many purpos
Climate-focused study abroad relying on high-emitting travel poses a dilemma between study abroad and emission reductions. This study employs the three spheres of transformation investigating this dilemma through coding syllabi (n=156,) surveying educators (n=9,) and interviewing (n=14) Climate Action Network for International Educators (CANIE) affiliates considering whether studying climate chang

This paper presents a method for translation of Java bytecode sequences into synthesizable hardware, using the Bluespec System Verilog (BSV) environment. At the core of our approach lies a BSV description of a subset of Java bytecodes, that can be used to directly translate bytecode sequences into a BSV specification. The result is intended as an accelerator for existing Java processors (JOP, Blue
The main concern of this paper is the joint utilization of new methods of research and analysis in the study of value. 40 persons, varying from age 20 to 70 and from different professional domains were studies by the use of a three-images technique inspired by Murray´s TAT. The aim was to unveil the implicit dimensions of work related values. Three analytical methods (content analysis, lexical ana
