Lärande i LTH har glädjen att presentera professor Keith Trigwell, som 2016 utsågs till hedersdoktor vid Lunds universitet. Keith Trigwell har särskilt studerat sambanden mellan lärares uppfattningar om undervisning och kvaliteten på studenters lärande. Han har lagt fram empiriskt stöd för att lärare som utvecklar sin syn på studenters lärande också i högre grad lyckas få studenterna att använd...

In this study, eight practitioners from the fields of graphic design, software development and interaction design were interviewed about work processes, idea generation and creative approaches. The interviews were analysed with a focus on underlying goals and motivations as well as the role of the different skills of team members, users and clients. In software development teams, a certain mix ...

In this thesis work, a comprehensive static data center model with raised floor design is developed with improvements based on previous master thesis work. Enhancement work focuses on IT virtualization technology, a general server model, more detailed chiller system and mechanical system, novel modeling methodology for power devices (PDU and UPS). Besides, the temperature of CRAH supply air, CR...

The information society, having a growing information domain/amount, requires a reliable information infrastructure with ability to distribute the right information from the right information producer to the right information consumer, at the right time and with the right quality on demand (information-on-demand). Another growing demand, parallel with the information distribution infrastructure...

This thesis report documents the work performed to investigate and implement a number of algorithms for real-time visualization of blood and smoke in the context of virtual surgery applications. More specifically, the effects that we want to implement are blood squirting in free space, blood drops running down a surface, blood dissolving in a fluid and smoke generated by a tissue burning instru...

Heteroleptic calcium amides effect the catalytic dimerisation of the terminal alkyne CH(3)OCH(2)C[triple bond, length as m-dash]CH to the hexatriene (CH(3)OCH(2))CH[double bond, length as m-dash]C[double bond, length as m-dash]C[double bond, length as m-dash]CH(CH(2)OCH(3)) under mild conditions; the reaction is proposed to occur via a dimeric calcium acetylide intermediate and to be promoted b...

English) A global mapping of early stage medical technology companies active in the neurology field has been implemented. The companies have emerging products and have undergone an evaluation by clinicians concerning the ability to provide clinical value for Swedish health care. The evaluation process has been executed by discussion with neurologists and neurosurgeons in combination with a lite...

The aim of this report is to provide a brief account of the mathematics underlying a substatial part of modern theoretical physics, more specifically field theory, and in particular the gauge theories used to describe elementary particle interactions. Therefore, the elements of mathematics we consider mainly belong to the realms of differential geometry and topology, and is divided into five ma...

The primary goal of this master thesis project is to implement a text independent speaker verification module for GIVES. Secondary goals are to implement a fast scoring method and compare performance between the implemented text independent module and an available text dependent module. The project also includes a literature study. The text independent module is based on adapted Gaussian Mixtur...

The MAX phase family is a set of nanolaminated, hexagonal materials typically comprised of three elements: a transition metal (M), an A-group element (A), and carbon and/or nitrogen (X). In this thesis, first-principles based methods have been used to investigate the phase stability and physical properties of a number of MAX and MAX-like phases. Most theoretical work on MAX phase stability use ...
