1. 1. Comfort climate evaluation with thermal manikin methods and computer simulation models

   Författare :Håkan O. Nilsson; Högskolan i Gävle; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; equivalent temperature; subject; thermal manikin; mannequin; thermal climate assessment; heat loss; office environment; cabin climate; ventilated seat; computer model; CFD; clothing-independent; comfort zone diagram; Civil engineering and architecture; Samhällsbyggnadsteknik och arkitektur;

   Sammanfattning : Increasing concern about energy consumption and the simultaneous need for an acceptable thermal environment makes it necessary to estimate in advance what effect different thermal factors will have on the occupants. Temperature measurements alone do not account for all climate effects on the human body and especially not for local effects of convection and radiation. LÄS MER

3. 2. Large organic aerosols in a human exposure chamber : applications in occupational dermatology and lung medicine

   Författare :Lennart Lundgren; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :Aerosol; bakery dust; bronchoalveolar lavage; chamber design; dermal exposure; exposure chamber; inhalation; large organic aerosols; mannequin; neutralizer; particle size; pinewood dust; skin;

   Sammanfattning : Exposure to large organic aerosol particles may cause respiratory and skin reactions. The use of human exposure chambers offers possibilities for experimental exposure challenges carried out with patients, in research and for investigations of the effects of exposure on the skin and in the respiratory tract.

4. 3. Pinhole Camera Calibration in the Presence of Human Noise

   Författare :Magnus Axholt; Matthew Cooper; Anders Ynnerman; J. Edward Swan II; Linköpings universitet; []
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : The research work presented in this thesis is concerned with the analysis of the human body as a calibration platform for estimation of a pinhole camera model used in Augmented Reality environments mediated through Optical See-Through Head-Mounted Display. Since the quality of the calibration ultimately depends on a subject’s ability to construct visual alignments, the research effort is initially centered around user studies investigating human-induced noise, such as postural sway and head aiming precision.

7. 5. Learning the Pelvic Examination

   Författare :Karin Siwe; Barbro Wijma; Carina Berterö; Sari Ponzer; Linköpings universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Medical students; women; learning; pelvic examination; empowerment; Obstetrics and gynaecology; Obstetrik och gynekologi;

   Sammanfattning : The inspiration for the present studies was the learning concept that used professional patients (PP) as instructors for medical students in learning how to perfom the pelvic examination (PE).Interviews performed with women who were PPs showed that they experienced a continuous beneficial increase in knowledge.
