1. 1. A Nordic Perspective on Data Availability for Quantification of Losses due to Natural Hazards

   Författare :Tonje Grahn; Lars Nyberg; Magnus Johansson; Henrik Jaldell; Kurt Petersen; Karlstads universitet; []
   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Natural hazard; damage quantification; flood damage; landslide; loss of life; Risk- och Miljöstudier; Risk and Environmental Studies;

   Sammanfattning : Natural hazards cause enormous amounts of damage worldwide every year. Since 1994 more than 1.35 billion people have lost their lives and more than 116 million homes have been damaged. Understanding of disaster risk implies knowledge about vulnerability, capacity, exposure of persons and assets, hazard characteristics and the environment. LÄS MER

3. 2. Heart failure : studies of prognosis and advanced therapy

   Författare :Tonje Thorvaldsen; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : Background: Heart failure (HF) is a major health problem affecting 2-3% of the Western population. The clinical syndrome of HF is associated with reduced (HFrEF) or preserved (HFpEF) ejection fraction. Around 50% of the patients have HFrEF and despite advances in treatment, prognosis remains poor and treatments are underutilized. LÄS MER

4. 3. Risk assessment of natural hazards : Data availability and applicability for loss quantification

   Författare :Tonje Grahn; Lars Nyberg; Magnus Johansson; Henrik Jaldell; Giuliano di Baldassarre; Karlstads universitet; []
   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; flood; landslide; damage; damage function; cost-benefit; decision support; causal relationship; Risk- och Miljöstudier; Risk and Environmental Studies;

   Sammanfattning : Quantitative risk assessments are a fundamental part of economic analysis and natural hazard risk management models. It increases the objectivity and the transparency of risk assessments and guides policymakers in making efficient decisions when spending public resources on risk reduction. LÄS MER

5. 4. Around Over Between Up... : Spatial properties as variables in textile design

   Författare :Tonje Kristensen Johnstone; Lars Hallnäs; Anne Louise Bang; Högskolan i Borås; []
   Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Textiles and Fashion Design ; Textil och mode konstnärlig ;

   Sammanfattning : With a starting point in defining space through materials, colours, planes, and surfaces, the aim of the work presented in this thesis was to explore and introduce spatial concepts as design variables in textile design. Another aim was to explore surface patterns in terms of their possible functions as spatial definers, and to make spatial properties (which here take the form of implicit knowledge) explicit in design processes in order to increase awareness of spatial concerns in surface pattern design.

7. 5. Surface patterns, spatiality and pattern relations in textile design

   Författare :Tonje Kristensen Johnstone; Högskolan i Borås; []
   Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Surface patterns; textile design; spatiality; spatial definers; design variables; pattern relations; conceptual spatial determinations; Textiles and Fashion Design ; Textil och mode konstnärlig ;

   Sammanfattning : This licentiate thesis focuses on surface patterns, spatiality, and pattern relations in textile design, and aims to explore surface patterns as spatial definers and what they mean in the context of surface patterns. A secondary focus relates to applying conceptual spatial determinations as alternative design variables in design processes, and exploring how these could be used to define and analyse pattern relations.
