A simulation model of immunostimulating Interstitial Laser Thermotherapy (imILT) has been developed to investigate the effect that biological variations in tissues have on the treatment outcome. The biological variations include optical and thermal properties. The model based on the results of these investigations was further developed to investigate the possibility of predicting an imILT treatmen

By exploring the Russian Global Education Program as a case of outward student mobility policy created through and backed by law, the author of this thesis analyses the impact of the legal dimension of said program on students’ return and employment decisions from the viewpoint of the socio-legal theory and methodology developed by Leon Petrazycki (1867-1931). Based on the analysis conducted herei

Utgångspunkten till denna studie var att undersöka sångares handlingsutrymme i ensembleundervisningen. Frågeställningarna som ramar in arbetet berör fördelningen av instrumentspecifika instruktioner mellan instrumentgrupperna, hur detta ter sig och vilka förutsättningar som står till grund för dem. Studien utforskar även fördelningen av taltid mellan tjejer och killar i ensembleundervisningen samtThe premise for the study was to research singers’ capacity for action in the context of contemporary classroom ensemble. The research questions that frame the present study concern the division of instrument specific instructions between the different groups of instruments in the contemporary classroom ensemble, and further what this looks like and which premises that ground the division.

Changing climate affects various ecosystem processes within the boreal forest, wildfire among them. Meanwhile temperature is commonly accepted as one of the most important regulating factors. In the context of 2016 being the warmest year in observational history, this review attempts to identify changes in wildfire extent within the central and south-eastern Siberian taiga. Satellite based estimat

Reliable information on land cover is required to assist and help in the decision-making process needed to face the environmental challenges society has to deal with due to climate change and other driving forces. Different methods can be used to gather this information but satellite earth observation techniques offer a suitable approach based on the coverage and type of data that are provided. Fe

Several problems concern about energy are frequently discussed in recent decades, such as the shortage of traditional energy resource, the increase of energy price and the destruction of living environment by energy conversion. To solve these problems, sustainable development of energy become a preferential task all around the world. Under current circumstances, applying energy saving measures and

Tropical cyclones influence processes within the carbon cycle on different time-scales. Forested ecosystems suffer windfall and long-term impacts from tropical cyclones, leading to the release of CO2 to the atmosphere. The coarse woody debris created by extreme wind speeds and landslides brought on by tropical cyclones can leave a forested ecosystem via riverine channels and end up in the ocean, w

The orbital approximation for stellar streams is the assumption that all stars in a stream can be described as following the same orbit. In this thesis, I evaluate this approximation as a method for constraining the potential of the Milky Way. I wrote a program in MATLAB which integrates the orbits of test particles in a potential model which resembles that of the Milky Way's halo and disc. Th

The aim of this thesis is to gather existing literature regarding the challenges senior human resource managers face in multinational corporations when managing a global workforce, as well as to discover the strategies that are used within the field of international human resource management.

The life cycle and behavior of free-living soil nematodes is highly dependent on environmental factors such as temperature and soil moisture, fluctuations leading to significantly lower development and activity rates, dormancy and/or mortality. This literature review summarizes present knowledge about free-living soil nematode temperature and moisture requirements, as well as the commonly accepted

Gas cooling is a technique used by firefighters to create a safer work environment inside a compartment fire. By spraying water into the smoke layer, the smoke layer temperature will decrease significantly. Next to the lower temperature, the flammability of the smoke layer will also decrease. Due to the cooling of the fire gases, the smoke layer may contract. This work focused on different parame

Children who grow up with a parent with an addiction and/or mental illness are at higher risk of developing the same disorder. There are children who even when growing up under rough conditions succeed to overcome their childhood and grow up to be “normal” citizens.
