Abstract:

In Burma, levels of fertility and mortality are usually estimated directly using the data from the incomplete vital registration. These estimates, of course, are under-estimates and fertility and mortality are the areas for further research in Burma. Thus, the main purpose of this study is to estimate the levels and trends of fertility and mortality in Burma. Although the Governments of Burma have never intervened in the fertility attitude of the people, the former socialist Government limited access to any modern methods of contraception. However, this study shows that a fertility

Our group has previously shown that small changes to molecular structure result in large changes to device properties and stability in organic electronic applications. By functionalizing aromatic heteroacenes with group 14 and group 16 elements, it is possible to control morphology and improve stability for a variety of applications such as thin film transistors and solar cells. Functionalization within the heteroacene core led to changes in electronic structure as observed by electrochemistry and light absorption. By substituting down the periodic table, the carbon heteroatom bond length incr

Abstract:

The aim of the thesis is to describe and analyse the population redistribution in Sweden at different geographical levels from the beginning of the 19th century to the end of the 20th century. The analysis is approached in three different ways. First, the redistribution at different geographical levels is analysed (papers I and II). Second, the changing accessibility between people (interpersonal accessibility) is analysed from the beginning of the 19th century to the end of the 20th century (paper II). Third, the impacts of fertility, mortality, internal migration, international migration and

Introduction: Ventricular arrhythmias (VAs) are common after an acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and are associated with worse clinical outcomes.

Methods: We examined 25-year (1986-2011) trends in the incidence rates (IRs) and hospital case-fatality rates (CFRs) of VAs, and the association between serum glucose levels and VAs in patients with an acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in the Worcester Heart Attack Study.

Masters of Science<br>The present study is an understanding of the relationship that exists between landholding and the reproductive behaviour of rural women in Kenya. Traditional women have rights to cultivate land as well as control income from the resulting crop production but rarely have rights to allocate or alienate land. Men are the rightful owners of the land. When the rightful owner person passes away, the eldest son of the family automatically takes ownership of the land and subsequent care of the family. This period of land ownership supported high fertility rates. However, in

Vid dessa förvärv brukar ett relativt långt hyreskontrakt medfölja och det finns ett starkt samband mellan den förhandlade hyran och försäljningspriset.

Abstract:

Sea level variation is one of the parameters directly related to climate change. Monitoring sea level rise is an important scientific issue since many populated areas of the world and megacities are located in low-lying regions. At present, sea level is measured by means of two techniques: the tide gauges and the satellite radar altimetry. Tide gauges measure sea-level relatively to a ground benchmark, hence, their measurements are directly affected by vertical ground motions. Satellite radar altimetry measures sea-level relative to a geocentric reference and are not affected by vertical land

Online social networks are experiencing an explosive growth in recent years in both the number of users and the amount of information shared. The users join these social networks to connect with each other, share, find content and disseminate information by sending short text messages in near realtime. As a result of the growth of social networks, the users are often experiencing information overload since they interact with many other users and read ever increasing content volume. Thus, finding the "matching" users and content is one of the key challenges for social networks sites. Recommenda

Since all of these factors matter some of the time, it argues that the research program needs to identify when each factor matters more than others and why.

The recent global mean sea level rise is dominated by the addition of water to the oceans, accounting for around two thirds of the increase.

We explore an intermediate view between the global and local reconstructions based upon zonal averaging. By combining altimetry or tide gauges along with steric reconstructions, we provide two independent estimates of the zonal average of the mass component of sea level trends. We f

Although the person-mean centering technique has been believed as the gold standard of the disaggregation method, recent studies found that the centering did not work when there was a trend in the predictor.

Abstract:

The increase of trading has created many environmental, ecological, social and ethical problems. The main concern across all industries is to create more sustainable, eco-friendly and ethical manufacturing processes. Only by influence consumer's purchasing behavior there might be the demand for eco-green products. The fashion and textile industry as one of the main contributor to the world's economy is one of the main environmental polluter (e.g.: soil, lakes, river and air). Recently, many young fashion designers started to offer eco-green fashion to the market. This new phenomenon might chan

Abstract:

This thesis examines the fluctuations in stature and BMI over the past century of Australian Military personnel. The influence of changes to the biological standard of living, being born in rural versus urban towns and occupation to personnel's stature and BMI was examined. Findings highlighted the non-linear increase in stature, its strong links to occupation and fluctuations that corresponded with environmental influences. This research has provided Australian stature standards for personnel from the Boer War to WWII and may be useful in assessing the biological profile of remains.

Abstract:

Medical imaging is an important part of the clinical workflow. With the increasing amount and complexity of image data comes the need for automatic (or semi-automatic) analysis methods which aid the physician in the exploration of the data. One specific imaging technique is angiography, in which the blood vessels are imaged using an injected contrast agent which increases the contrast between blood and surrounding tissue. In these images, the blood vessels can be viewed as tubular structures with varying diameters. Deviations from this structure are signs of disease, such as stenoses introduci

Abstract:

A variable that may be associated with performance improvements is goal setting (within and across days). Easy-to-achieve goals will likely produce gradual trends in improvement and difficult-to-achieve goals steeper trends. The purpose of the current experiments was to study the effects of setting easy-to-achieve and difficult-to-achieve goals on the level, trend, and variability of correct, incorrect, and skip responses for math tasks when reinforcement contingencies and numbers of practices were held constant. Five undergraduate students answered math problems on flash cards in 30s timings.
