1. Steam Drying of Porous Media
Abstract : The present study concerns heat and mass transfer in porous media dried by superheated steam. Specifically, the steam drying process of a packed bed of porous particles was studied in order to obtain design data for a band drier. READ MORE

2. Systemic stress response and hyperglycemia after abdominal surgery in rat and man
Abstract : Surgical trauma results in a complex neuroendocrine and metabolic response known as the systemic stress response, which is initiated by neuronal and humoral signals from the site of the injury. These signals converge at central sites and result in the activation of the hypothalamicpituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, the sympathetic nervous system and an inflammatory response. READ MORE

3. Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm : Aspects on how to affect mortality from rupture
Abstract : Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (AAA) is a disease that mainly affects elderly men, and ruptured AAA (rAAA) is associated with a mortality of > 80%. AAA seldom gives any symptoms prior to rupture.The aims of this thesis were to investigate different aspects of how to affect mortality from rAAA. READ MORE

4. Eigenfrequency Analysis FE-Adaptivity and a Nonlinear Eigenproblem Algorithm
Abstract : Engineering often pose the problem of computing the frequencies with which a system oscillates and the corresponding displacement patterns the system forms, and in case damping is present then the rates of which the amplitudes of the displacement patterns decay are also required. It is necessary to compute these quantities within a prescribed accuracy and the effort required for the computations should be minimised. READ MORE

5. Molecular Recognition in Antibody Engineering. Studies on recombinant and phage displayed antibodies
Abstract : In vitro generation of antibody fragments of desired specificity and affinity plays an important role since it permits the generation of reagents which may be valuable for diagnostic and therapeutic applications. Furthermore, the kinetic parameters for an antibody-antigen interaction, rather than the affinity, has shown to correlate with biological functions like virus neutralization. READ MORE
