The Yaw Power Backup System (YPBS) is a safety system that needs to be incorporated in the Wind Power Plant (WPP) in order to provide emergency power during a power outage. The YPBS enables the Wind Turbine Generator (WTG) to perform a yawing operation in extreme weather conditions. The yawing operation ensures the rotor is aligned with incoming wind, minimizing the acting forces on the blades and
Purpose: Although basic objective measures (e.g., knee laxity, strength, and hop tests) have been related to subjective measures of function, associations between knee-specific objective and subjective measures have yet to be completed. The objective was to determine if knee joint contact and ligament forces differ between pre- and post-anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstructed states and if
Grassroots innovations are seen as important contributors to sustainability transitions, however, given their dependence on place-specific conditions they face diffusion challenges. Responding to previously outlined gaps regarding conceptualisation and exploration of the spatiality of grassroots innovations, this paper introduces a conceptualisation of nomadic grassroots innovations. These are gra
År 2020 anger 212 av 286 kommuner i Sverige att de har ett underskott på bostäder i kommunen som helhet. Sveriges befolkning ökar och bostadsbeståndet hänger inte med. I studien syftar bostadsbristen till definitionen som är skillnaden mellan vad som kollektivt uppfattas som en godtagbar bostadssituation och det faktiska läget på marknaden. Situationer som inte kollektivt anses vara godtagbara bosThe housing responsibility in Sweden is primarily controlled by the municipalities. The municipalities in Sweden have a monopoly on controlling land use with detailed development plans. The population rises every day and the majority of the Swedish municipalities confirms having lack of housing. This study has been made in order to investigate how five municipalities work with their housing respon
In recent years, long-acting drugs have emerged as a significant advancement in the treatment of chronic diseases. Camurus is a pharmaceutical company specializing in this area, with products based on FluidCrystal® technology—a lipid-based injectable drug delivery technology that, upon contact with water or physiological fluids, undergoes a phase transition into a liquid crystalline gel depot. Dru
Background: Biomarkers serve as a quantitative measure of brain injury and may predict cognitive outcome after cardiac arrest. This study investigates the association and predictive accuracy of acute changes in Alzheimer disease-associated biomarkers to cognitive outcome in cardiac arrest survivors.Methods: Retrospective study of the Target Temperature Management after Out-of-Hospital cardiac arreBackground: Biomarkers serve as a quantitative measure of brain injury and may predict cognitive outcome after cardiac arrest.

Heroic narrations of Waffen-SS are encountered in several memory cultures, notleast among Cold War émigrés.1 One example of this is the Ukrainian communityin Canada, in particular the so-called third wave of Displaced Persons, refugeesfrom communist rule in Eastern Europe. It constitutes a community of memoryin many key respects at odds with the Canadian mainstream society. Whereas theHolocaust ocThe 14th Waffen-SS Division Galizien was set up in 1943 by Ukrainian volunteers, largely sympathetic to the more conservative Melnyk wing of the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists (OUN(m)). Its members took a personal oath of allegiance to Adolf Hitler and served in a number of capacities on the eastern front. In addition to combat at the front, the unit partook in the crushing of the Slovak N
Popular Abstract in Swedish Effekter av narkosgas, låg syrgashalt och blodförlust under blodspädning (hemodilution) på sövda grisar. Blodspädning (hemodilution) används under operation för att minska behovet av blodtransfusion med dess inneboende risker. Hemodilution innebär att blod tappas före operationsstart och ersätts med en blodkroppsfri lösning. Om en blödning uppstår under operationen blirHemodilution reduces the need for blood transfusion and hereby the risk for transmission of infectious agents. The present study investigated effects on systemic and myocardial circulation and oxygenation, and blood lactate concentrations; induced by nitrous oxide, isoflurane, hypoxia, and uncompensated blood loss, in pigs hemodiluted to a hematocrit of 11%. In addition, indicators of hypovolemia
The aim was to investigate quality of life (QoL) in elderly persons newly diagnosed with cancer (65+ years) in relation to age, contact with the health-care system, ability to perform activities of daily living (ADL), hope, social network and support, and to identify which factors were associated with low QoL. The sample consisted of 101 patients (75 women and 26 men) newly diagnosed with cancer.
Proprioception of the knee was measured in 19 healthy individuals to evaluate whether there were any differences between extension and flexion movements from two different starting positions. The threshold before detecting a passive movement, visual estimation on a protractor of a passive change in position (30 degrees angular change) and active reproduction of the same angular change were registe
Disaster-induced and conflict-induced forced displacements areamong the biggest humanitarian and development challenges of the countriesaround the world in the 21st century. The increasing rate of the forced displacementputs significant pressure on the built environment which popularly includes thechallenges associated with delivering the essential goods and services, providingadequate and appropr
There is a large variability between individuals in the response to anesthetic drugs, that seriously limits the achievable performance of closed-loop controlled drug dosing. Full individualization of patient models based on early clinical response data has been suggested as a means to improve performance with maintained robustness (safety). We use estimation theoretic analysis and realization theo
Purpose The prevalence of hip and groin problems in professional male ice hockey is unknown and suspected to differ between playing positions. The purpose of this study was to explore potential differences in the seasonal prevalence of hip and groin problems between playing positions in male elite ice hockey players and to explore the relationship between symptom duration and hip and groin functi
The main purpose of this article is to examine how elite athletes perceive their own responsibilities and possibilities to be compliant with the anti-doping regulations, and to draw conclusions about what these perceptions mean in relation to the legitimacy of the anti-doping system. A qualitative research design, with interviews conducted with athletes globally, was employed to capture elite spor
