  4. 4. Nocturnal enuresis and rapid maxillary expansion : – long-term effect, prognostic variables, respiration during sleep and quality of life

    Author : Ingrid Jönson Ring; Bazargani Farhan; Tryggve Nevéus; Agneta Markström; Maria Ransjö; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Rapid maxillary expansion; nocturnal enuresis; sleep disordered breathing; respiration; polygraphic sleep recording; quality of life.; Medicinsk vetenskap; Medical Science;

  5. 5. Rapid solidification behaviour of Fe and Al based alloys

    Author : Sathees Ranganathan; Hasse Fredriksson; Zhongyun Fan; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Rapid solidification; Melt spinning; Metastable phases; Fe based alloys.; Metallurgical process and manufacturing engineering; Metallurgisk process- och produktionsteknik;

    Abstract : Rapid solidification experiment on Fe-Cr-Mo-Mn-Si-C alloy was performed to investigate metastable phases formed during the solidification. A wide range of cooling rate was used to analyse the sample from melt spinning technique (~107 K/s) to water quenching method (~102 K/s). READ MORE
