Skull Reconstruction Using Statistical Shape Models

In case of a head injury or trauma a surgeon opens up the skull by removing a bone piece of the skull to either relieve pressure or get access to brain tissue. The first option is to follow up with putting back the same skull piece. In the circumstances this is not possible however, a surgeon must open up the skull and form a piece using bone cement that fits the whole during the surgery, which is

Building a bioinformatic workflow to study methane metabolism in a capture metagenomics dataset of peatland soil

Methane metabolism in the peatland is an important step within global carbon circulation. It is essential to understand the functional composition of the microbial community related to methane metabolism in the peatland ecosystem. In this study, a bioinformatic workflow was built to analyze a capture metagenomic dataset of peatland soil at three depth groups (5cm, 10cm, 15cm) and visualize the fin

Sjuksköterskors och verksamhetschefers syn på kompetensstegen för sjuksköterskor inom offentligt drivna vårdcentraler i Region Skåne

Abstrakt Titel: Sjuksköterskors och verksamhetschefers syn på kompetensstegen för sjuksköterskor inom offentligt drivna vårdcentraler i Region Skåne Bakgrund: Svårigheter att rekrytera nya medarbetare, brist på effektiv användning av befintlig kompetens samt att säkerställa kompetensutvecklingen utgör en stor utmaning för vården. Tanken med implementering av kompetensstegen i primärvården i Region

Utveckling av mjukvara för styrning av tvåfasstegmotorer

Med moderna mikroprocessorer kan motorstyrning göras i mjukvara. Ett mer konkret exempel är möjligheten att köra tvåfasstegmotorer med strömreglering. Redan med en enkel regulator kan mycket bra resultat uppnås. Stegmotor är en elektrisk motor som har fått sitt namn för att ett varv är uppdelat i ett antal lika stora steg. Antal steg/varv varierar och väljs utifrån motorns användningsområde. En s

The Faroese 1981 bird census revisited - fewer birds in 2020

A prerequisite for the effective conservation of species, is the accurate assessment of a species’ distribution and numbers. In order to look into the population sizes of birds, a quantitative atlas project from 1981 included a total count of the inland birds in the Faroe Islands. The aim for my thesis was to look at the population changes from 1981 until 2020, by repeating the 1981 atlas project,
