1. 11. General Motor Function Assessment and Perceptions of Life Satisfaction during and after Geriatric Rehabilitation

   Författare :Anna Cristina Åberg; Hans Lithell; Birgitta Lindmark; Birgitta Sidenvall; Christina Helging Stenström; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Geriatric nursing; geriatric rehabilitation; motor function; assessment; qualitative interviews; life satisfaction; self-expresion; informal care; Äldrevård; Older people and ageing; Äldre och åldrande;

   Sammanfattning : Two main goals of geriatric rehabilitation are to re-establish ability for physical function in order to facilitate independence in activities of daily living (ADL), and to promote an optimal degree of well-being, i.e. life satisfaction, in the individual. LÄS MER

3. 12. Cerebellar function during development. Eyeblink conditioning, prism adaptation and interval production in children and adults

   Författare :Karolina Löwgren; foniatri och audiologi Logopedi; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Cerebellum; Eyeblink conditioning; Prism adaptation; Finger tapping; Development; Children; Adults; Cerebellar function; Neurodevelopmental disorders; Cognitive disorders;

   Sammanfattning : The focus of this thesis is on cerebellar-dependent sensorimotor tasks during development. The performance in classical delay eyeblink conditioning, prism adaptation, and isochronous serial interval production (finger tapping) was explored in typically developing school-aged children, young adolescents, and adults.

4. 13. Prosthetic Foot Control for Ground Adaptation

   Författare :Wolfgang Svensson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; autonomous systems; kinematical sensors; Foot prosthesis; embedded computing; sensor fusion;

   Sammanfattning : Wearers of prosthetic feet find walking on inclined ground difficult or uncomfortable. A major reason for this is a limitation in ankle motion in existing prostheses. LÄS MER

5. 14. Sensory-motor regulation of human biting behavior

   Författare :Krister Svensson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : In order to control oral motor behavior, such as biting and chewing, we rely on information provided by a variety of sense organs, including periodontal mechanoreceptors (PMRs). The PMRs, located among the collagen fibers in the periodontal ligament that attaches the root of the tooth to the alveolar bone, send signals to the central nervous system when the surrounding collagen fibers are stretched by loading of the tooth.

7. 15. Adaptation and Learning for Manipulators and Machining

   Författare :Olof Sörnmo; Institutionen för reglerteknik; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

   Sammanfattning : This thesis presents methods for improving the accuracy and efficiency of tasks performed using different kinds of industrial manipulators, with a focus on the application of machining. Industrial robots offer a flexible and cost-efficient alternative to machine tools for machining, but cannot achieve as high accuracy out of the box. LÄS MER
