16. Materials for Hydrogen storage and synthesis of new materials by hydrogenation
Sammanfattning : The search for new materials for hydrogen storage is important for the development of future hydrogen energy applications. In this Thesis, it is shown that new materials with interesting properties can be synthesized by the reaction of hydrogen with various nanocarbon precursors. The thesis consists of two parts. LÄS MER
17. Nutritional Depletion in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) : Effect on Morbidity, Mortality and Physical Capacity
Sammanfattning : The overall aim of this work was to examine the effects of depleted nutritional status on some aspects of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD).Morbidity. In paper І, we found that energy intake was lower than the calculated energy demand for all patients. LÄS MER
18. Physical performance and physical activity in the later stage post-stroke
Sammanfattning : Aims: The overall purpose of this thesis was to increase knowledge about physical performance and activity in the later stage post-stroke by measuring walking performance in different environments coupled to muscle strength, cardiorespiratory fitness evaluation and self-reported physical activity. Methods: The studies reported in the thesis included a total of 83 subjects with prior stroke living in the community and 144 clinically healthy subjects from the same area. LÄS MER
19. Snow particle size investigations using digital image analysis - implications for ground observations and remote sensing of snow
Sammanfattning : During the past century climate warming has caused rapid changes in the Cryosphere. This has increased the need to accurately monitor rates of change in snow and ice in remote or sparsely populated areas where environmental observing capacity is limited. Monitoring snow cover requires understanding of the snow pack and the snow surface attributes. LÄS MER
20. Muscle mass and physical function in ageing : the effects of physical activity and healthy diet
Sammanfattning : Ageing is associated with a gradual deterioration in physical function, accompanied by a decrease in muscle mass, leading to loss of independency. In this respect, physical activity and healthy diet represent key lifestyle factors with potential to delay onset of age-related physical disability. LÄS MER
