11. Revealing invisible strain : Magnetic Fabric Analysis as Strain Indicator in Analogue Models and Nature
Sammanfattning : Strain is accommodated by folding, thrusting and an “invisible” component, known as penetrative strain. Magnetic fabric analysis allows for identification and quantification of this imperceivable strain. In this thesis, magnetic fabric analysis is applied to quantify strain in analogue sandbox models.

13. Physiological- and Socio-Cultural Conditions for Performance in Women's Ice Hockey
Sammanfattning : Background: The ice hockey community is founded on masculine norms and values, and the hockey rink is often described as “the home of men’s ice hockey”. Despite a growing popularity, women’s ice hockey has low priority in comparison to the men’s game. LÄS MER
14. Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis : Postural Stability, Prognostic factors and Impact of Conservative Treatments on Radiologic, Clinical and Self-Reported Outcomes
Sammanfattning : Background: Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) is a three-dimensional distortion of spinal curvature of unknown cause that develops during puberty. If the frontal plane curvature exceeds a Cobb angle of 24°, full-time bracing is recommended to prevent curve progression, negative health consequences or need for surgery. LÄS MER
15. An economic perspective on the analysis of impacts of information technology : from case studies in health-care towards general models and theories
Sammanfattning : Organizations of all types want to have individuals utilize the Information Technology (IT) they purchase. For this reason, the identification of factors that cause individuals to use IT, factors that are important when developing IT, and factors that influence organizations' performance when IT is implemented, provides helpful guidelines for decision-makers.
