  1. 1. Participatory approaches to strengthening district health managers' capacity : Ugandan and global experiences

    Författare :Moses Tetui; Anna-Britt Coe; Anna-Karin Hurtig; Elizabeth-Ekirapa Kiracho; Suzanne N Kiwanuka; Bart Criel; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Participatory Action Research; Qualitative Research; Management; Health Managers; Systems Strengthening; Health Systems; Districts; Uganda; folkhälsa; Public health;

    Sammanfattning : Introduction:Residents of low in-come countries have persistently suffered poor health outcomes, modest progress made over time notwithstanding. Weak health systems are one of the key reasons for the less than optimum progress. These health systems are constrained by inadequately equipped managers who play a main role in curbing this progress. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : Industrial energy efficiency improves the profit and competitive advantage of companies. The pulp and paper industry (PPI)being one of the five most energy-intensive industries uses 5.6% of global industrial energy, according to the InternationalEnergy Agency. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Re-defining the Problem in Technology Aided Epidemic Prevention : from contact tracing to behavioral design

    Författare :My Villius Zetterholm; Päivi Jokela; Lena-Maria Öberg; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; behavioral design; COVID-19; contact tracing apps; epidemic; mobile technologies; social distancing; nudge technologies; proximity tracking; technology acceptance; Informatik; Information Systems;

    Sammanfattning : In this work, the Covid-19 pandemic provides the context for exploring the emerging field of mobile technologies for disease prevention and tracking during epidemics and pandemics. Knowledge on how to design and utilize these types of digital preventive technologies and how to gain public acceptance is still limited. LÄS MER

  4. 4. FRP shear strengthening of reinforced concrete beams

    Författare :Gabriel Sas; Giorgio Monti; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; fiber reinforced polymers; shear; reinforced concrete; strengthening; model; comparison; literature review; Structural Engineering; Konstruktionsteknik;

    Sammanfattning : The shear failure mechanisms of flexural reinforced concrete (RC) members is highly complex; its precise details cannot be explained with simple analytical relationships, and are the topic of considerable scientific debate. The studies described and examined the three most used shear theories in the world – the fixed angle truss model (45°TM), the variable angle truss model (VAT), and modified compression field theory (MCFT).

  5. 5. Frequency Transfer Techniques and Applications in Fiber Optic Communication Systems

    Författare :Sven-Christian Ebenhag; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; synchronous digital hierarchy SDH ; UTC; synchronization; Time transfer; optical fiber; optical fiber network; GPS carrier phase; global positioning system GPS ; synchronous optical networking SONET ;

    Sammanfattning : Modern society is dependent on communications and the developments of these increases constantly through a seemingly endless demand for communication services and thereby synchronization and time. This is confirmed by a vast range of research on communications, irrespective of technology and protocol. LÄS MER
