  2. 16. Pluripotent Circulations: Analyzing Articulations of Stem Cells in the USA, prior to 2001

    Author : Morten Sager; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Actor-Network Theory; meta-theory; obligatory point of passage; boundary objects; sociotechnical reality; articulations; human embryonic stem cells; spare embryos; pluripotency;

    Abstract : In this thesis, stem cell research and politics in the USA are analyzed by using actor-network theory (ANT). Here ANT is put to work on largely textual materials, often directly from US political settings, such as Congressional debates and national panels. READ MORE

  4. 17. How reproductive is a reproduction? : Digital transmission of text-based documents

    Author : Lars Björk; Högskolan i Borås; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Boundary objects; Cultural heritage; Digital humanities; Digital transmission; Digitisation; Document studies; Libraries; Materiality; Media theory; Library and Information Science; Biblioteks- och informationsvetenskap;

    Abstract : Heritage institutions today increasingly rely on digital formats for access, use and re-useof their collections. Books and other text-based documents, previously accessed on locationin libraries are now transferred into digital format and managed, distributed, andengaged as binary encoded representations.

  5. 18. Plasmonic Nanospectrocopy of Individual Nanoparticles - Studies of Metal-Hydrogen Interactions and Catalysis

    Author : Svetlana Alekseeva; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; grain boundary; metal-hydrogen interactions; plasmonic sensors; single particle spectroscopy; palladium nanoparticles and nanocrystals; localized surface plasmon resonance; hole-mask colloidal lithography; nanocatalysts; shrinking-hole colloidal lithography; plasmonic nanospectroscopy; dark field scattering spectroscopy; nanoscale effects;

    Abstract : Localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) is the phenomenon of collective oscillation of conduction electrons in metal nanoparticles smaller than the wavelength of light used for the excitation. Plasmonic metal nanoparticles are able to confine light to extremely small volumes around them, i.e. below the diffraction limit. READ MORE

  6. 19. Innovation in a Changing World : Exploring PSS Design through Prototyping

    Author : Ryan Ruvald; Alessandro Bertoni; Andreas Larsson; Christian Johansson Askling; Blekinge Tekniska Högskola; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Product-Service System Design; Design Thinking; Prototypes; Boundary Objects; Maskinteknik; Mechanical Engineering;

    Abstract : Customers across all sectors have increasing expectations (e.g. value, efficiency, availability, quality, etc.) and expanding needs which traditional business models fail to address simultaneously and stand-alone products cannot be expected to solve. READ MORE

  7. 20. Mass Conserving Simulations of Two Phase Flow

    Author : Elin Olsson; Gunilla Kreiss; Stig Larsson; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; free boundary; two phase flow; level set method; conservative; Numerical analysis; Numerisk analys;

    Abstract : Consider a mixture of two immiscible, incompressible fluids e.g. oil and water. Since the fluids do not mix, an interface between the two fluids will form and move in time. READ MORE
