  1. 1. Hope Rites : An Ethnographic Study of Mechanical Help-Heart Implantation Treatment

    Författare :Haris Agic; Marja-Liisa Honkasalo; Lars-Christer Hydén; Robert Desjarlais; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Medical technology; uncertainty; ritual; emotions; ethnography; liminality; end-stage heart failure; mechanical help-heart; progress; hope.; Medicinsk teknologi; ovisshet; ritual; emotioner; etnografi; liminalitet; akut svår hjärtsvikt; mekaniskt hjälphjärta; framsteg; hopp.;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis is about cultural aspects of advanced medical technology for treating end-stage heart failure. New medical technologies like mechanical help-hearts save lives, but they also bring new uncertainties, risks, and challenges. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Planering för framsteg och gemenskap : Om den kommunala utvecklingsplaneringens idémässiga förutsättningar

    Författare :Dalia Mukhtar-Landgren; Statsvetenskapliga institutionen; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Planning; legitimacy; municipality; Sweden; development; progress; community; rationality; homogenity; heterogenity; place marketing; urban renewal;

    Sammanfattning : What are the discursive pre-conditions for planning? In this dissertation the author analyzes and critically assesses the assumptions which underlie our thinking about planning. This is done in an analysis of firstly, how planning is legitimized, and secondly, what consequences these forms of legitimation have for planning theory as well as for planning as a political practice.

  4. 3. Advancements in stratified flows through simulation, experiment and open research software development

    Författare :Ashwin Vishnu Mohanan; Erik Lindborg; Pierre Augier; James J. Riley; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; geophysical flows; shallow water wave turbulence; energy cascade; stratified turbulence; waves and vortices; open source software; geofysikaliska strömningar; vågturbulens i grunt vatten; energi- kaskad; stratifierad turbulens; vågor och virvlar; öppen mjukvara; Engineering Mechanics; Teknisk mekanik;

    Sammanfattning : Two studies of two-dimensional models of flows influenced by stratification and stratification/rotation are carried out in order to investigate whether a two-dimensional model can reproduce a downscale energy cascade with an associated k − 5/3 wavenumber spectrum. Firstly, a series of highly resolved numerical simulations of the classical shallow water model is carried out. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Efficient Calculation of Nonlinear Spectroscopic Properties within the Time-Dependent Density Functional Theory Approximation

    Författare :Karan Ahmadzadeh; Patrick Norman; Johannes Neugebauer; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Cubic response; DFT; Response theory; Theoretical Chemistry and Biology; Teoretisk kemi och biologi;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis introduces a novel computational scheme tailored for efficient calculations of nonlinear spectroscopic observables. First, a derivation and implementation of an algorithm designed to harness the linearity of the Fock matrix construction in calculating two-photon absorption cross-sections within the self-consistent field approximation is presented.

  7. 5. Breast cancer risk assessment and detection in mammograms with artificial intelligence

    Författare :Yue Liu; Kevin Smith; Hossein Azizpour; Fredrik Strand; Anders Eklund; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Mammography; AI; Breast cancer risk; Breast cancer detection; Mammografi; AI; Bröstcancerrisk; Upptäckt av bröstcancer; Datalogi; Computer Science;

    Sammanfattning : Breast cancer, the most common type of cancer among women worldwide, necessitates reliable early detection methods. Although mammography serves as a cost-effective screening technique, its limitations in sensitivity emphasize the need for more advanced detection approaches. LÄS MER
